When Parsley and the Archon found Sarada, she was about to get started on her own quest. Her arrival caught her eye. "Done already?"
"There wasn't much to it," Parsley answered. She left it at that and stepped forward. "There is little more for me to do here. I feel I've gained all the strength I can, so I'm heading out. Unless you need me to stay?"
"No, I'll be fine." She rolled her shoulder and started stretching. "If you're leaving, take Kumara with you. I'll be heading out as soon as I'm done, too."
She sighed quietly and turned to leave. "Very well. I'll see you soon."
It was of great interest to her how the others had been faring for the majority of the day they spent training in Vaikuntha. The threat of Auroc and his plans, as well as the plans this Koorimaru had for Maiz, was enough to mobilize them to action, but training was in order. If her timing was correct, Pinach and Tasure's idiot son should have been in the RoSaT currently, with a short time left. Avoca and Tasure should have finished their training and were likely done on Ruco, or close to it.
"I don't see how she'll win every fight," she commented as she and the Archon took their leave.
"She does not. The conditions of her quest are not contingent on her victory, but rather her evolution. The creature let out a crinkling sigh. "Without doubt you have noticed that your sister's fighting tendencies vary. She has potential to be a flexible fighter, but she falls back to simpler tactics. My siblings and I intend to teach her to think more quickly on her feet."
She was, of course, right. Sarada was a very simple fighter until simplicity failed. By that point, she was scraping the bottom of the barrel for options. It was around that point when the fight was close to turning into her opponent's favor. "Then that's her lesson to learn. She doesn't need me for that."
"No. She does not."
They reached the spot where Sarada kept her young daughter safe from the constant battles that were taking place further within the planet. The brown-skinned baby had Inanna's jet black hair and a pair of horns that jutted out of her forehead. True to her mother's jarring nature, the child looked more like a demon than an Oni. Then again, she if Inanna was even an Oni anymore. She, to sate her curiosity, had consumed the genetic material of an Arcosian, a Demon, and a Namekian. That alone would have irreversible consequences; not to mention the reclamation that took place within the Crystal Hollow. She wasn't sure what her sister-in-law was and that bothered her. If only because it was going to be hard to explain to the people on the outside what her niece was, outside of a half-Saiyan.
The young baby's eyes peeked open, revealing the pair of immaculate golden eyes that she inherited from both parents. Upon seeing her, the baby cooed and reached for her. In the past, such a sight would have made her stomach turn. She despised half-breeds and wanted nothing less than to exterminate them from existence, starting with Tasure's moron son for influencing her brother and cousin in ways that would have only ended with embarrassment for themselves and their entire family. Yet, over her time in Purgatory, she got over that disgust.
A good thing, because this would not be possible if she hadn't.
She smiled and picked up the baby. "It's time for us to go, little princess." She gathered the meager supplies they managed to scrounge up in a sack and tossed that over her shoulder. "Goodbye, Archon. This past year has been fun," she said with a genuine smile.
"Farewell, Parsley. And good luck in your coming battles."
She nodded and flew from Tatenen II to the proper realm of Vaikuntha. The endless grassy plains and paradisaical surroundings made her want to linger just for a day longer. Sarada likely wouldn't be that much longer. "No, I have work to do." With that statement, spoken with profound disappointment, she and Kumara slipped out of Vaikuntha and into the outside world.
She stepped foot on the Lookout and immediately took stock of the situation. As she suspected, Pinach was nowhere to be found, and neither were her wife and Tasure. Strangely, neither was Inanna. Even more strange, Ochazuke hadn't made his arrival yet. Interesting. She sensed Eva nearby and made her way over to her to learn what had happened in her absence.
