>>6124904With a roar you close the distance, swinging at your daughter's head with a right. That she blocks with her left forearm, using her arms to block a dozen rapid-fire punches. But on your sixth right she ducks it, twisting her body and firing a devastatingly-powerful left directly into your ribs. Breaking several and sending you flying back as you cry out in pain.
“Gyaaah!” you shout, unable to hold it in as blood sprays from your mouth. However, after a second or three you recover, flipping backwards and reorienting on your daughter, who hasn't followed up on her attack. You seeing the conflict in her eyes. Tch! Did I teach you to stop and admire your work after landing only a single hit?!”
With that you clench your fists, blazing your emerald aura up around you as you draw your right hand to your chest. Gathering your energy for your final, all-out attack.
“Use your full power, and never hold back! Fight every battle as if it were life and death!” you order, your daughter drawing her right back as well. But at your words her expression changes, her resolve hardening as you recall the words your own father spoke to you, at his end.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17rpm63gm-4 “In this world, when you fight it is kill or be killed! Your enemies will show you no mercy, so show them none!” you order her, as well as your lineage watching from down below. You remember your youth, how your father taught you to fight, to survive, to WIN. How, even with his final act he was teaching not just you but your own children. And it would be a disservice to do anything less yourself. “The fate of our people now rests with you all, how well you can fight and protect them. You must be strong! Strong enough to fight through any pain, doing whatever it takes to win! Losing means death, not only for you but everyone you wish to protect! So, no matter the cost, you must win!”
Memories flood through you, of all the fighting you did, every challenge you overcame to make the world your family now lives in so peacefully. But you know how easily it can be taken away, how they must fight to keep what you worked so hard to give them.
“I entrust the future of our people to you, now.” you tell them all, then throw your right hand forward, unleashing everything you've got. “FINAL-!”
“SHINE ATTACK!!” you and Chaya shout together, and in a flash, it's over. Everything fades away, as you are no doubt bested. And before the darkness takes you, your last thoughts are of your family, how you're so glad you got to spend the time with them you did.
And so passes the Progenitor of the Super Saiyans, resurgence of their kind among the Saiyan race. His name was Karn; a proud, Saiyan father and warrior.
