1. God of Destruction Awakens, before the battle

34 lines

The battle against Majin Buu had ended in victory, preserving the universe and all life therein. Four years later, in a remote corner of space, a divine being of untold strength, the God of Destruction, is about to awake from his slumber...

Kibito Kai

It can't be...!

So you're sensing it too, Supreme Kai?

Kibito Kai

Yes. He's certainly waking early this time, isn't he?

Alas, peace is always so short-lived.

Whis

Lord Beerus, it's time. Time to wake up.

We can't have you falling back asleep for another decade.

(yawn) Come now, Whis. I only got to sleep a measly 39 years.

That's nothing but a catnap.

Whis

Might I remind you, Lord Beerus, it was YOU who chose this wake up time.

And if I may... Why did you choose this date?

Beerus

Ah, yes. There's something I need to check...for myself.

You see, I had a dream, a dream of the future. A dream... of a worthy adversary.

Whis

An adversary, you say?

Beerus

The Super Saiyan God!

Whis

Super Saiyan God...?

Beerus

Well, "worthy" might be a stretch. "Interesting"... Yes, that's more apt.

Anyway, that's why I'm up early!

Whis

I see. I assume the being we want...

...is a Saiyan, then?

Beerus

But of course.

How else would you propose we find a Super Saiyan God?

Whis

Point taken. But, hmm... The name seems so... overblown?

Tacky, even.

Beerus

Enough of that. Let's find our guy.

Whis

Let's see... I am picking up five Saiyan survivors based on a planet known as "Earth".

However, one of the five appears currently to be visiting the home of the North Kai.

Beerus

A Saiyan on a Kai's planet? How strange...

How much time in transit are we looking at, Whis?

Whis

Approximately 26 minutes.

Beerus

Damn. That's about the length of your average anime episode!

...Oh well. Let's bite the bullet and hop to it.

Whis

As you command, my lord.

Following a slumber of 39 years, the God of Destruction, Beerus, was on the prowl for a foe he hoped would finally entertain him, the "Super Saiyan God". But what kind of fighter could this be...?

2. God of Destruction Awakens, after the battle

9 lines
Beerus

It seems this particular Saiyan is not the Super Saiyan God I'm looking for.

Goku

R- Rrrghn...

Beerus

Whis! To Earth.

Whis

At once, my lord.

...

North Kai, I bid you good day.

Goku

Wow. That guy was totally next-level...

What was he talking about? "Super Saiyan God", it sounded like.

Having trounced Goku in his Super Saiyan 3 form without the slightest hint of exertion, Beerus left King Kai's Planet for Earth. Would the god be able to find what he sought on the peaceful blue planet?

3. Pudding Fury, before the battle

17 lines

The search for the Super Saiyan God had brought Beerus and Whis to Earth. The pair wasted no time in seeking out the Saiyan prince himself, Vegeta. Bulma, Vegeta's wife, just so happened to be celebrating her birthday...

Of course, Beerus and Whis took to crashing the festive occasion. Luckily, they were susceptible to the pleasures of Earth cuisine, and began to feast uncontrollably. A cheerful, festive air continued, that is until...

You, there!

Kindly hand over one of those pudding cups to Lord Beerus.

Majin Buu

No! Buu eat!

Pudding is all for Buu!

Beerus

Really? The entire tray?

Majin Buu

All pudding cups are Buu's!

Gimme!

No!

Gimme!

No!

Beerus

You will do as I say, you dumb blob!

Majin Buu

You call Buu dumb? Now, Buu turn you into candy and eat you!

Beerus

...

You've made me...

MAAAAAD!

4. Pudding Fury, after the battle

5 lines
Majin Buu

Unnnngh...

Beerus

Let this be a lesson to those who would hog pudding. And I'm just getting started...

W-What in the world...?!

Vegeta

Damn.

Denying the god his tasty treats proved a losing bet for Buu. For he had ignited a vengeful wrath like no other... and paid the price in pain. Who among Earth's heroic ranks could stop Beerus' rampage?

5. A Party in Chaos!, before the battle

5 lines

Denied of his pudding, Beerus' anger had reached boiling point, setting into motion a frenzy of calamitous proportions. Not ones to let a cataclysm develop unchecked, all heroes at the party rushed to restrain the incensed god.

Stop him, before it's too late!

Piccolo

Dammit. Ready, Gohan?

Ultimate Gohan

You got it, Piccolo!

Beerus

You're going to need a planet-sized cleanup crew when I'm done...

6. A Party in Chaos!, after the battle

4 lines
Ultimate Gohan

R- Rrrrngh...

I've never... seen strength... like this before...!

Beerus

While it seems you are a Saiyan...

...you're not the Super Saiyan God I'm looking for.

7. Countdown to Destruction, before the battle

4 lines

Denied of his pudding, Beerus' anger had reached boiling point, setting into motion a frenzy of calamitous proportions. Gohan and Piccolo attempted to curb the angry god's rampage, but alas, were effortlessly put down.

V-Vegeta? This would be the time to kick his purple ass already!

Damn my luck. Whatever happens, happens!

Beerus

Would the dear prince fancy a beating next?

8. Countdown to Destruction, after the battle

6 lines
Gotenks

Aaaaagh! Sorry, sorry!

Beerus

Hmph.

Vegeta

I knew Beerus, being a god, was on a level all his own.

But this sheer gap in strength can hardly be fathomed...

Beerus

No pudding... And no Super Saiyan God...

I might as well destroy this useless rock.

9. God of Destruction vs. Raging Vegeta, before the battle

12 lines

The search for Super Saiyan God had brought Beerus to Earth, where he crashed Bulma's birthday party, enjoying quite a bit of it in the process. Unfortunately, a squabble over pudding left the god at the height of fury, putting an abrupt end to the festivities.

Beerus

No pudding... And no Super Saiyan God...

I might as well destroy this useless rock.

Vegeta

Hmph... Being destroyed by Beerus may not be a bad way to go, all things considered.

Beerus

Honestly, I'm flattered. If there are no objections...

I shall do as you wish...

Uh, excuse me? I object!

This is officially the worst birthday party in the history of EVER!

Beerus

...

Vegeta

H-How dare you...

That's my BULMA!

Beerus

This power... Can it be?!

10. God of Destruction vs. Raging Vegeta, after the battle

23 lines
Vegeta

(pant) (huff... pant...)

Beerus

How disappointing. This isn't the Super Saiyan God I've been searching for either.

Enough with this joke of a planet. Time to destroy it and be off. ...Whis!

Vegeta

N-Not so fast!

That's enough talk of destruction from you!

Beerus

Gripe all you want. This is over. Let's go, Whis!

It's destruction time!

Whis

You called, my lord?

Beerus

It seems this Super Saiyan God was nothing more than a figment of my imagination.

But I shall destroy this planet before I return home!

No, wait!

Beerus

Hm? Oh... You shouldn't have come back...

Unless... You've finally figured out the Saiyan God prophecy?

Goku

Maybe. It's a long-shot, but worth looking into.

Beerus

What is?

Goku

Super Saiyan God. I think maybe...

...just maybe... I can become it!

Beerus

How, pray tell?

Goku

A few minutes is all I ask!

Think you can handle waiting?

Beerus

Oh...fine. Clock's ticking.

Goku

Thanks!

Declaring Earth doomed, Beerus had proceeded to swat down Earth's protectors one after the other... But mere moments before he could transform the planet into cosmic dust, Goku appeared on the scene. Whatever was the plucky Saiyan planning...?

11. Super Saiyan God Is Born, before the battle

27 lines

Declaring Earth doomed, the enraged Beerus had proceeded to swat down Earth's protectors one after the other...

It was then Goku appeared, deterring Beerus from disintegrating the planet with a bold declaration, he just might be able to become the Super Saiyan God! Goku then brought out the prize of the bingo tour- nament, the Dragon Balls.

Come forth, Shenron, and grant me my wish!

Any wish, I shall grant. State your desire and it shall be so.

Goku

Yeah, this is more of a question, actually.

Would you happen to know anything about a "Super Saiyan God"?

Beerus

Oh... I'd like to hear this answer to that question just as much as Goku.

I do indeed know of such a being.

Goku

Really?! That's great! Cause Lord Beerus over here...

...is gonna make trouble for us if we don't bring him out, and fast!

L-Lord Beerus?!

Oh my... I-It is an honor to make your acquaintance, Lord Beerus.

Beerus

Tell the man how to become Super Saiyan God already.

B-But of course. The Super Saiyan God is a messianic entity...

...created out of coincidence by a handful of pure-hearted Saiyans who took a stand against their race's brutal ways.

Goku

Messianic what now?

A savior, imbued with incalculable power, who left the evil Saiyans scattered and fleeing.

Unfortunately, on the cusp of victory, the warrior expended his strength, and his legend was erased forever.

That history lesson was a little too long for me to follow. You get all that, Vegeta?

Vegeta

Shh! Quiet!

This legend, lost to the fog of history, is thus... Should five righteous Saiyans...

...join hands and transfer their light to a sixth, that final Saiyan will ascend to godhood.

Vegeta

Five righteous Saiyans, you say?

I have imparted the requested information.

Farewell! Er, if you'll excuse me, Lord Beerus.

Beerus

Now that you know how to create the Super Saiyan God...

I suggest you get to it. Now!

12. Super Saiyan God Is Born, after the battle

12 lines
Beerus

Yes, that's it!

Super Saiyan God Goku Limitbreaker Kamehameha

...

Beerus

What's the matter? You seem unimpressed...

Disappointed with your new divine state?

Super Saiyan God Goku Limitbreaker Kamehameha

No, I assure you I'm very impressed.

It's just that I didn't achieve it on my own.

Beerus

You don't like the fact that getting here was a team effort. That it?

Super Saiyan God Goku Limitbreaker Kamehameha

Don't get me wrong. Now that I'm here, I'm glad.

I just wish I'd been able to fight you without any outside help, that's all!

Beerus

Why even go through with it, then?

Super Saiyan God Goku Limitbreaker Kamehameha

Simple. I want to fight you!

Beerus

Heh heh.

13. Battle of Gods, before the battle

8 lines

With the help of his friends and family, Goku had suc- ceeded in becoming the lost legend incarnate. Beerus too, was burning with passion for the fight, having at last met the adversary of his dreams. A historic god- on-god showdown was set to rock the cosmos...

Beerus

I'll have you know, I'm not fully satisfied myself.

Super Saiyan God Goku Limitbreaker Kamehameha

You aren't? Why?

Beerus

This isn't a real fight...yet. I've been holding back.

Super Saiyan God Goku Limitbreaker Kamehameha

Wow, really?

I've been giving it about eighty percent.

Beerus

Eighty...?!

Well if you're so slick, try keeping up with me now!

14. Battle of Gods, after the battle

24 lines
Goku

Why? Why'd you stop?

Beerus

I just wanna hear you say that you give up.

Goku

Ha... Well, I do, I do give up. I've given all I've got.

You're the real deal. Strongest in the universe.

Beerus

I'm glad we found something to agree on then. You weren't too shabby yourself, though.

In a long career of combat, you're the second strongest I've fought.

Goku

S-Second strongest? Who's the first?

Beerus

See my attendant Whis? He's right over there.

While it's true that he waits on me hand and foot, he's also my teacher.

Goku

No way... Your teacher?!

Does that mean you're not the strongest?

Beerus

Depends which reality you're referring to. I'm the God of Destruction from this universe, the 7th.

But there are others too, 12 universes altogether. Don't you think some might have spawned warriors even mightier than us?

Goku

Wha...?

Ha ha ha...!

Thanks to Earth's strongest defender, the God of Destruction had managed to savor a bout with the opponent of his dreams. Satisfied, Beerus elected not to destroy Earth, and returned to his own planet, still mystified with his find in Goku.

Beerus

Within that man sleeps an abyssal well of latent power. A rarity indeed.

Still... Nothing I couldn't handle.

Whis

While that may be, he forced you to use nearly seventy percent of your power. It's been centuries since you've exerted yourself.

Beerus

Say, what was that guy's name again?

Whis

"Goku".

Beerus

Goku, eh?

He and Vegeta may just have what it takes to go toe to toe with me... Someday, anyway.

Goku, Vegeta and the Super Saiyan God had stolen the show that day, proving to Beerus there was something special to the Saiyans he was hitherto unaware of. And so, high hopes for his new Saiyan acquaintances still alight in his heart, the god drifted off to sleep once more...
