>>5208136…Hrmn. They might be up to something. You’ll need to keep watch over what dad’s doing, but also, Tarble might be able to surprise Vegeta… if he can ascend beyond Super Saiyan. At the same time, Vegeta’s been humbled once already, and he’s pretty crafty when he needs to be. He could still have something up his sleeves. …Well, gloves.
Either way, you know what you have to do. “Come on, Tarble! You can do this! Show ‘em what you’ve been training for!” The pair launch at one another, Vegeta more testing the waters while Tarble gives it his all. It does actually leave Vegeta on the back foot a bit, though he still doesn’t seem worried. You contact Keli again, asking her, ‘If you don’t think an overwhelming and sudden attack will work as well, what do you propose?’
‘Something that doesn’t require us actively planning it out, but can be set up pretty early… maybe like your Ki mines. Hrmn. I’ll need to think a bit more, but I’m starting to hatch a plan.’
‘Keep me updated.’ A spin on the Ki mines… maybe that could work. As you see Tarble trying his all, you notice that dad’s powered down, and is actually trying to recover as much Ki as he can. Ahhh, clever! But is that all? Vegeta does seem aware of this, but he isn’t too bothered by it. Tarble keeps pressing on, taking the fight into the air, but Vegeta ends up going on the offensive now… and it’s a bit hard for Tarble to keep up. They’re out of visual range again… but there’s something odd you’re noticing. Tarble’s charging some kind of Ki sphere. What’s he-?
‘Ghost Pepper, keep your goggles on! Over!’ mom warns suddenly, and you can feel her teleport next to Baozi.
Wha-? OH!
“BURST OPEN AND MIX!”
You feel Tarble’s Ki surge up high, and dad keeps his eyes shut tight as he keeps trying to recover Ki. Vegeta attempts to stop Tarble from transforming, hitting the Power Ball, but it’s too late to prevent it completely. Tarble lets out a roar and knocks Vegeta back down, trying to contain the mixed power of Super Saiyan and Oozaru.
Vegeta… laughs. A genuine, almost… friendly, laugh. “Hahaha… hahahaha! You know what, little brother? I’m actually impressed. You’ve really come into your own. But can you contain all that power?”
“Let’s find out, brother!” he responds in a roar, launching at Vegeta again.
>A. Now THAT’s a surprise! Come on Tarble, keep at this!>B. Mmmh. That’s good, but it might not have actually been the best move…>C. Something else?
