He's so impossibly fast you could never out run him, he can breathe in space so you can't fly away from him. And even if you somehow COULD escape, his big Saiyan enforcer Karn can simply hunt you down with Instant Transmission no matter where you hide. You hadn't fully comprehended the evil that the Cold clan was capable of, but that's no excuse. You willingly signed up to work for them. So now you'll have to see this path through to the end.
“Thanks Chris.” you say, turning and nodding to her before rising to your feet. “Let's keep going. We need to find this thing, quick.”
“Right.” she replies, standing up and offering you her hand. “Let's do this.”
You take her hand in your own, allowing your friend to haul you upright. You've dug yourself into this mess, you're just going to have to find your way back out of it. And as you look through King Cold's treasury with renewed purpose, you seek something capable of getting you out of this situation. But after a few minutes traveling inward, you hear her suddenly gasp. Turning, you see that the compass' needle has changed direction! No longer is it pointing at the door, but further back into the treasury itself. The two of you share a look, then nod to each other and walk side-by-side deeper into the depths of his vault. Glancing back over your shoulder, you can no longer even SEE the entrance to this place. It's so large that you could easily get lost inside. But such thoughts are swept aside as the two of you come upon another glass case, the needle pointing directly at what lies within.
“N-No way, he has THAT?!” you exclaim, looking at the mythical item held suspended in the case before you. And suddenly you begin to wonder how that warrior from the future Trunks ever managed to defeat King Cold. Just how strong WAS that curse weakening him?
