“I'm only going to say this once. Nod if you surrender. Or shake your head if you'd rather die than be a prisoner. You have five seconds. Five. Four. Three.”
As you count down you see the realization dawn, but you also see determination burn in his eyes. He doesn't want to back down, but realizes that he can't escape on his own. But just as your count reaches one, the situation changes. As one you and he both sense it, heads snapping towards your right as a powerlevel beyond anything you've ever felt before suddenly appears at the edge of your ki sense.
“What the-?” you say, feeling a fear you haven't felt for years suddenly creeping back in. A fear you first remember feeling on the verge of unconsciousness, looking up as giant metal beings break down the former Guardian's barrier, stomping towards you and your siblings. Powerless in the face of the coming threat. And for all your power now, such a being as the one rapidly approaching is so far beyond anything you've ever felt, it feels just as if not even more threatening than Mechikabura himself. Looking over towards your wife, you glance past Merus, who seems equally as shocked as your wife, everyone who can sense energy all looking the same way while your men all look around confused. But the worst part is you know what is back the way you came, worry filling your guts.
“Mom, is everything okay?” you ask, immediately telepathically reaching out to your mother. Fearing the worst, your panic is quickly calmed as she answers.
“Broly? What's wrong, do you need help?” she asks, you sensing her own worry.
“Did you and dad sense that? That unbelievably powerful energy?” you ask, wondering why it is leaving your family's home. “Is everyone alright?”
“Oh, he headed towards you?” she replies, quickly filling you in on what happened. How it was an android like Cell built on the planet Ubo now lives on, how it can copy people's powers with a look and talked with your father a bit before just... Leaving. “Wonder why he's headed your way?”
“I don't know, but he's almost here so I have to take care of this. Talk later, love you.” you reply, ending the mental connection and looking down at Merus. Who, seemingly sensing your gaze looks up. “Seems that we have a bigger problem approaching.”
“I've never felt a mortal powerlevel like this.” he responds, you both nodding in understanding as you let him go. Then turn to your crew, barking out orders.
