Broly slowly woke up. He looked down on the two beauties that were sleeping on his chest. They even had their legs curled around his, which made him feel blissful.
He saw his tablet blinking. He carefully wriggled his way out and picked it up. It was about the devices that would stabilize the space inside the rift. The previous crew was to be gathered and go for a test run with it.
He turned around and wanted to wake the two girls up, as they were part of the crew. He saw that now he was out of bed, they had snuggled up and embraced each other.
"Hey, you two monkeys get up." He went up to them and squeezed their tails, slightly pulling them.
"Nhmm~" "Aaaa~" They started moaning. Broly looked at the tails in his hand and started thinking about something he hadn't considered yet. A grin appeared on his face.
"Morning, Broly~" Cana said while rubbing her eyes. "Why are you suddenly so small and what is this elastic-"
"Hyaah! Cana stop it." Alea screamed as she escaped Cana's gropes while pulling the sheets to cover herself. She started pointing at the dumbfounded Cana. "What are you doing here?? Where is Broly?"
"Cough. Here." Broly said awkwardly.
"Sorry, but there is no way in hell, I would sleep in the closet… Why are you looking at me like that?" Cana said as Alea stared angrily and mostly embarrassed at her. Cana shrugged and started licking the air, before saying.
"'You can take a punch to the face without flinching but are squirming when I lick you for a bit.' Alea you have outdone yourself and you only started having interest in sex since only a bit more than a week." Cana said teasingly.
Alea couldn't take it anymore and covered herself with the sheets.
"You know I thought that after you declared that you would fuck Broly, you wouldn't take several days. You know how frustrating it got…"
"Just stop, I get it!" Alea shouted and quickly ran to the bath room while picking her battle armor up.
"Why are you even embarrassed in the first place? We will eventually spend our time together!" Cana shouted after her.
Broly shook his head. "Stop teasing her and get up and start dressing, the stabilizers are ready."
"You are always so nice to her, but you only order me around." Cana pouted as she stared at him.
"Yeah, I have to be clear otherwise you wouldn't listen." "That's not true, I am very obedient." She shook her fist.
"Yeah and what was that when we fought the CEs, I remember clear-" "Stop it, I get it!" Like Alea she ran into the bathroom with her clothes.
"Hey what are you doing here?"
"I am getting dressed, obviously."
"That's not what I mean. Can't you wait??"
"…Okay then I will get dressed outside with Broly"
"On the other hand, stay here. *Click* It is time for revenge." She locked the door and only screams and moans, resounded through the door as she 'viciously' attacked Cana.
Broly looked down at himself and quietly dressed himself while listening to the birds chirping…
****
They quickly arrived at the meeting and like the first time they were given some details and were prepared for the take-off. Broly stood inside the cockpit with Violet who was operating the spaceship and waited for the Go-sign.
After a while they took off with the 200-strong crew and shortly after were slowly entering the rift. Without hitch they went inside and were able to release the stabilizers. Hundreds of drone-like devices were released and built a hexagon after hexagon deep into the rift.
Broly and the others were already on the lookout for any disturbances, they were currently blasting their ki to lessen the burden on the drones. The drones connected to each other forming a hexagon shaped tube extending into the rift.
It looked like the tube tore through the nebula as only normal space with stars shone back at them inside the tube. The whole crew were on the verge of jubilation, but this was just the start. After successfully building the pathway, they needed to test the waters. They send a small space-pod capable of an all surround video transfer to look at the situation ahead.
The pod slowly flew along the tube, filming everything on its way. The crew was silent as they waited anxiously about the result.
The pod flew further and slowly they saw how the pod was beginning to distort before disappearing altogether. The connection was terminated but they all released a sigh of relief. They looked over the sent footage and data to analyze if it was safe. After determining that there were no problems, they began the final test to see if they could get out.
Broly started flying into space along the tube where the pod flew at. As he traveled, he powered up directly into his legendary state and his eyes turned yellow. He was currently in his strongest form. Although he directed all his energy and focus to the front, the crew behind him couldn't even breath as they looked at the person who released a tremendous amount of ki.
Cana and Alea powered up into Super Saiyan 2 and shielded the crew from the residue ki, but their main focus was still on Broly. If they saw something out of the norm, they would be the ones to pull him back or rather assist him. After all, after Broly they were the strongest people on this planet.
Broly faintly felt the connection to his ki, he sent ahead being lost, but he knew that had to be because it entered another space out of his reach. He only had to traverse it and bring back the pod.
They saw Broly's body distorting and finally vanish. This was all expected, now he only needed to return, and the mission would be a full success.
Broly's vision abruptly changed, not different to when he entered or exited on the other side. He knew that he had arrived in the normal universe. He looked at his vital data on his suit and saw that everything was normal.
He looked around and saw the pod flying further into space. Before he flew to it, he released a small little ball that would mark his way back. He then quickly arrived at the pod and stopped it. He went inside and turned it on manual.
As soon as he turned his pod around, he was astonished by the scene. A gigantic red planet broken into thousands of pieces suspended in space and a distant dim star far away in the background
'That is how the universe sees us? A destroyed planet void of life?' Broly smiled bitterly, but it was to be expected. That was probably the reason why no other Saiyans were mentioned in the series. This or because they all died in the rifts without that Saiyans guidance.
He looked at the ball and steered towards it. Without picking it up, he flew passed it. His pod distorted, and he was back in the nebula rift. He saw Alea's and Cana's anxious faces, as they waited for his return. He felt warm inside, as he carefully flew towards them.
The other crewmembers were already cheering at his return and the successful mission. He exited the pod and was immediately greeted with two Super Saiyans crashing into him, hugging him tightly. They had bright smiles on their faces. He patted their backs for a bit.
They then stored away the pod and flew out of the rift to deliver the good news. On the ground as soon as they stepped outside, they were screaming and cheering, immediately letting everyone know of the success. They all hugged each other and celebrated.
But Broly knew this wasn't the end for him. He still needed to clear things up with the other leaders. He saw the city lord nod at him and then disappear with the other leaders. He made Alea and Cana know that he would leave shortly, and they should celebrate without him. They were confused but knew that it had to be something important, considering the serious tone of his voice.
He quickly went towards the 'secret' meeting of the leaders and started discussing, after Broly described what he saw and analyzed the data of the pod. They were arguing about what they were going to do now that they could return to the normal universe. Some wanted to leave for their home area and look if there were some survivors on a nearby planets. Others wanted to build a joint headquarter on a new planet.
But in one point they were all on the same page, they wanted to leave. Not just most but all. After careful thoughts and after all these years of searching a traversable rift, it showed them that even though it could be a good defense mechanism, it would inevitable be a cage. Who would guarantee that enemies wouldn't throw a bomb inside the rift, completely throwing the rift into disarray and cutting them off once again from the universe?
Now it was time for them to decide their future actions.
