“Uhh, oh-okay.” Cauli replies, then rushes over to her sister and gives her a big hug. “Do your best! We're gonna be cheering you on from the air!”
“Haha, just you wait!” Chaya replies to her as the two end the hug, pointing her thumb back at herself. “I'm gonna take all of these guys down, just watch me!”
“Good luck.” you reply, giving her a nod that she reciprocates as you take to the air. Caulifla follows closely behind you, the two of you flying higher and higher. As you do, you get a good view of the world below, and feel your eyes widen a bit. The entire landscape your ship had crashed into is an odd amalgamation of metal and brick construction, spotlights in the shape of gears illuminating the clouds as the interconnecting gears crank continuously.
“Woah. Look at this place.” Caulifla says, shocked. There's gears everywhere! Uh oh, who're they?”
“Some of the mechanical soldiers Chaya's here to fight.” you reply, seeing a formation of several dozen mechanical warriors all approaching the shipwreck. Chaya and Raditz can't see them yet, but they clearly know your daughter and her friend are there. Their formation splits, half going around each side of the building in an effort to flank them. But then you sense your daughter's ki swelling, looking over to see her gathering a powerful ball of ki overhead. “What are you doing?”
“I'm gonna take them out first!” your daughter exclaims, but you reach out and grab her wrist. “Ah-hey! Wh-What are you doing?”
“This isn't our fight kiddo.” you tell her, shaking your head a bit. “Vox built this place for Chaya.”
“Wait, what?” she asks you, confused. “I thought these are the robots that attacked us a few days ago?”
“They are, yeah.” you reply, then after a quick look around for any of Vox's cameras and not seeing any except the two focused on Chaya below, start explaining. “That was just for show. Vox sent them to our world with King Vegeta's okay, to fight Chaya. She doesn't know this is something he's made, or the fight waiting for her at the end. This is a challenge built specifically for her.”
“Ooooooooh, I see.” she replies, and with a thought quickly dispel her gathered energy. “So us fighting would ruin the challenge for her, wouldn't it?”
“Yeah, it would.” you reply, and watch as the machine soldiers open fire while those with lances and shields form a defensive wall. Your daughter doesn't hesitate, picking up her sword and charging directly at the closer group while Raditz keeps his distance, charging up a sparking pink orb and lobbing it into the smaller group. His attack bursts directly over the mechanical soldiers, pink lightning dancing throughout the soldiers until they begin exploding one after another.
