6 Extinction

I have to admit, the alien city is really something to behold. Nothing on the entirety of Planet Vegeta could ever come remotely close to this. I can see several small skyscrapers, all of which were surrounding one very large skyscraper that was directly in the middle of the city. The lights that shone through the night were honestly very beautiful.

One could almost compare it to a far away picture New York, only this New York was considerably smaller. But even with its size being probably a tenth of New York, this city could easily hold ten times that much. It makes no sense. Why can I only sense around ten thousand people here? Could the previous Saiyan Infiltration Squads have been more successful as we thought?

I flew in the direction of the giant skyscraper in the middle of the city. As I grew closer, I noticed that the people here seemed to have a gloomy atmosphere about them.

I would usually write it off as something inconsequential, but considering that it seems to affect everyone here, I can only imagine some type of event happened that caused them to be like this. My theory of the Saiyan Infiltration Squads having been somewhat successful in conquering the planet seemed more and more likely, but there was one problem with the theory so far.

There was no damage anywhere.

Whenever a squad of Saiyans arrive at a planet, there's usually only one method that they use in order to conquer it.

And that was basically Scorched Earth.

They would turn an entire city into a glass floor until they had no doubt that absolutely nothing survived. There's hardly any other method that Saiyans would use. Sometimes they would be tasked to retrieve a piece of technology, but those missions usually came from someone higher up in the Frieza Force.

As far as I know, there isn't any technology that was tasked for retrieval. Which would mean that the Scorched Earth policy was in place when the other teams arrived. If the other Saiyans weren't the cause of their small number numbers or their obvious depressing state, then I don't know what is.

"I guess that's a question I'll just have to save for later." I said to myself before flying above the tallest skyscraper.

I looked down at the building below me, smirking at the idea that had just popped into my head. I've never tried using this technique before, so my stance would probably need to be corrected. But I don't think I could call myself a Dragon Ball fan if I don't try it at least once. I put my hands together, leaving a gap in between and bringing them to my side.

"Ka... Me..."

A dark purple ball of Ki starts to form in the gap between my hands.

"Ha... Me..."

The ball of Ki grows bigger and bigger, now letting off small beams of Ki in every direction.

Before I could shoot off the Kamehameha Wave, some sort of electric dome surrounded the roof of the skyscraper and shocks me with a very high voltage of electricity.

"AAAAAAGGHH!!!"

The pain was so immense that I dropped out of the sky and onto my hands and knees, smoke coming off my body. I suddenly feel something wrap itself around me and pulling me into the air, whilst also keeping my arms at my sides.

"What the hell...?" I groaned, looking down at whatever it was that kept me restrained.

When I looked down I saw two yellow rings around me, the look of them reminding me of Gotenk's Galatic Donut technique.

"You are being contained in a stasis field." I heard a voice speak out from above.

I look up and see five of the same aliens that I had encountered at my ship. They were all using some kind of vehicle to hover above the ground. Four of the aliens had on some fancy looking red robes while the one in the middle had on a blue robe.

"We theorized that if another one of your species were to make it this far into the city that they would aim for where they could cause the most damage." The alien who was in the middle of the group told me.

Their vehicle, that looked more like a giant hoverboard when I got a closer look at it, floated down towards the roof, allowing all of them to step down and walk towards me.

"While I admit that your species has tremendous power, your mental capacity has much to be desired." He... She... It added.

Besides their differing blue and purple skin, I couldn't actually tell which member of their species were male or female.

"Well, I'm so sorry that my species is such a disappointment to you." I said sarcastically whilst rolling my eyes.

What is even the point of this? He could've killed me by now but instead it's choosing to speak to me. If it was interested in speaking, why would those soldiers from earlier shoot me on sight.

"It's actually quite the opposite. In fact..."

He leaned down and picked something off the ground, showing it to me and revealing that it was a Senzu Bean. I checked my mouth immediately for the one I had put there, but didn't feel it anywhere. It must've came out when I was screaming out in pain earlier.

So that's why they are choosing to talk now...

I remember from earlier that the other two aliens were talking about looking for some Medical Mechines to help with their medical systems.

"I'm very curious as to how your weak-minded species was able to manufacture such a powerful healing agent." He says, taking out a remote and pressing a button.

Their vehicle flies up and projects a video onto the roof of the skyscraper. Looking at it closely, I see that it was actually a video of the encounter I had with two aliens at my ship.

Body cams? No, the placement of these shots are too high for that. Their movement is also very odd. It's almost as if they are... Wait...

Do these creatures implant micro cameras into the eyes of their soldiers?!

Shit, I should've just turned their bodies to ash instead of leaving the corpses. Then again, the footage that was captured was probably the only reason that they're keeping me alive at this point.

I don't know whether I should be disappointed in my lack of caution or relieved that it somehow gotten me in a situation that is better than the alternative.

"As you can see, you were shot by one of our snipers in the heart. I'm sure I don't need to remind you. Although, you seem to be surprisingly mobile for one that's supposed to be dead. I picked this footage apart very carefully to find out how you were able to walk away from such an injury."

My heart is on the other side of my chest. Seems they just disposed of the bodies of the other Saiyans instead of dissecting them. Odd, I would've expected them to try and learn everything about us by any means necessary.

Especially after the whole eye cameras thing, but something he said caught my attention for a bit. He went through the footage carefully? That footage couldn't have been captured more than ten minutes ago! How in the world did you manage to pick it apart enough in that small amount of time?!

"It's very difficult for anyone not experienced enough with subtle movements to make out, but you swallowed something when our soldiers were examining you. You then took out our soldiers with ease, and even more importantly, without any damage on your person. Later on, you put this into your mouth before disembarking from your ship and flying towards our city."

While he was spouting off his monologue, I focused my energy into my mouth, trying to successfully make my only shot of getting out of this mess. It was a not going to be a clean infiltration, but it's not like I have many other options. It's this or Kaioken, and the latter isn't exactly good at keeping me alive either.

The alien walked up to me, holding the Senzu Bean right in my face.

"What is this?"

Damnit, it's almost ready. I just needed a few more seconds until I can fire it off. Why couldn't you have monologues some more?

"Silence will get you nowhere, Saiyan. I suggest that you cooperate."

Having no other option, I decided to staye silent. The alien looks at me for a moment before letting out a sigh and walking back towards his group.

"I wish that you would have just cooperated. I do not take any pleasure in any of this, but you have brought this upon yourself, Saiyan."

It presses another button on the remote it had in its hand, causing electricity to shoot out from my restraints and into my body. I could only groan out in pain, trying to keep my mouth closed as opening it would have tipped them off to my plan if they had seen any of the other Saiyans use it before.

"What is it?" It repeats.

Again I don't answer, and again I'm shocked by electricity. This time it felt even worse than the others.

"Each time that you insist on remaining silent, I will increase the voltage more and more. Now tell me what I want to know and I promise that you will not suffer any more pain."

I keep silent for a second, almost causing the alien to press the button again, but I let out a grunt to stop it from doing so.

"Will you comply?"

I nodded and it lowered the remote. It moved closer yet again, almost face to face with me now. I let a smile grow on my face, a white light shining from in between my teeth. The look of shock on the alien's face was priceless as I looked towards the sky and shot a Power Ball out of my mouth.

The group of aliens looked up at the white sphere in shock for a moment before running towards the vehicle that they arrived in, but by the time it had lowered itself back onto the roof...

"Burst open and mix!"
