“Good luck.” Towa says, Freeza and Churai vanishing from her lab. She then sighs out, turning back to the scrying orb. “You're gonna need it.”
Meanwhile your perspective shifts, changing once more. You see the Hive creatures swarming a group of Saiyans, a much younger golden-haired Karn leading his allies. But he isn't fighting the swarm of monsters, instead he's fighting a familiar metallic shape.
“HAAAA!” your brother roars, grabbing the golden-haired warrior by the face and slamming him down back-first into the ground.
“KARN!!” his wife Meloka, who is also noticeably younger shouts, giving one of the monsters an opening to attack her from behind. But you don't let her die either, raising your right hand and firing a Death Beam. It burns a hole through the creature's head, the monster falling limp as she turns to you. “Wait, Lord Freeza?! Why are you-?”
But you ignore her, surging forward and slamming your foot square into your brother's metal face right as he prepared to fire a blast into Karn's face, which would have killed him. Instead your kick sends him backwards, your brother's pale ki blast flying past you and exploding into the swarm. Cooler flips backwards through the air several times before landing down on all fours, sliding to a stop.
“L-Lord Freeza? How...?” Karn asks, shocked by your sudden appearance.
“Leave Cooler to me.” you reply, not looking away from Cooler. “I shall handle this.”
“Right!” he replies, minuscule powerlevel rising as he blasts away from you.
“Brother.” Cooler says, pushing himself back up to his feet. “No, you're not my brother. My brother was killed by a Super Saiyan, and would never go out of his way to save one.”
“What a terrible timeline you must hail from.” you reply, taking your usual spread-arm fighting stance. “But since you are my brother, I shall give you the small mercy of leaving here alive. Leave my future general alone and you won't be harmed.”
“Future general? You really aren't my brother.” Cooler replies, raising a single finger towards you. “Die.”
