stepping point [ goku black & kale]
content warnings: attempted murder.
summary: Goku Black's attempt at wiping all saiyans of universe six fails, resulting in the legendary super saiyan Kale to defeat him. Expecting for the strong saiyan to take revenge and end him right then and there, Kale's mind on the other hand seems to differ.
——
He could barely remember what exactly happened. The last thing he had saw was a giant sized ki blast thrown his way. Black curses to himself as his eyes opened, fully taking in his surroundings. Was he not supposed to be dead? Confusion temporarily seeps onto the saiyan's features as he searches for answers. As Goku Black scratches his head, his tan fingers brush against the bandage wrapped around his head, the fabric an unfamiliar material he wasn't used to.
What is this? Black forces himself onto his feet, the pain from the intense battle with the universe six saiyans coursing through him. He grits his teeth though, pushing through it as he glares at his reflection through the small puddle of water. How pathetic he looked. Tsk. Oddly, the pain was hurting a little too much for comfort. The evil saiyan aims to pull the bandage off until a voice had stopped him midway.
"Careful sir. You hit your head pretty badly." The voice comes off as soft and high pitched, belonging to a slim woman with a red top and matching skirt. She appeared to be no taller than five foot four. Her hands holds onto a kit made of Sadala's finest resources. Goku Black takes notice of the shy smile tugging at her lipstick covered lips as she carefully approaches him. It was her, the legendary female saiyan who had fought against him, defeating him with her uncontrollable strength.
The personality switch was quite unusual considering how much she screamed and lashed out when he had attacked her friends. Caulifla and that boy......Cabba was it? Black narrowed his eyes, skeptical of the girl's intentions the more she draws closer to him. He wanted to get his revenge and strike her when she's most vulnerable. To make her pay. Yet what he wanted was out of his hands. Black was still healing from his concussion to which he had no idea how long he had been out for.
The unrepentant god tenses as the saiyan reaches to fix the bandage on his head.

"I nearly wiped your..... friends from existence, yet you choose to help me mortal. Why is that?"
"You remind me of someone I know. His name is Son Goku." Kale's smile falters a bit with a sigh while she rewraps the bandage around Black's torso, replacing the blood stained one with a fresh clean one. Her small hands, soft and delicate, had secured it tightly. The shy woman looks at him with a genuine look in her eyes that disgusted Black in many ways he couldn't describe. It rubbed him the wrong way. Kale was a lot more aggressive and lacked self-confrolled in berserk, yet right now she was sweet, calm and gentle.
"Caulifla stated that I should have ended you right then and there. But I....I couldn't bring myself to..." Kale states, muttering the last sentence under her breath. Her cheeks flushed a shade of pink the longer Goku Black's eyes continued to bore into her, resulting in her to feel as if she shrunk.
"You were stupid not to." He points out, voice flat and emotionless. It no longer held the prideful, cocky and distasteful tone he once had before. His tone was more neutral and blank than anything. Black could see the hidden potentional within Kale that the others couldn't see themselves. It was what made her still to be a threat to him, an issue to be exact.
Kale shifts uncomfortably, her silence making it known that Black had striken a nerve. She closes the kit while moving away from him to give him space. Black continued to observe without speaking a word, and the sudden tightening in his chest wasn't helping either. Was it hinting that he was beginning to feel some form of...remorse? It clearly couldn't be.
