New Kami
A while before the androids went critical, on a remote jungle far away, a half breed Saiyan was looking for the temple of God.
"That should be the place? Long white pole going straight into the sky."
Trunks mumbled excitedly after seeing the lower end of korin tower, after some thought he had decided to do this the old fashioned way.
Climb the entire thing.
He was here to gain the post of God, if he doesn't even respect the rules, he doubts he will gain much except an empty lookout.
*Wooosh*
Trunks kept flying and had by now approached the lookout, watching the empty residential areas which no doubt once held humans, Trunks sighed.
These must be the tribes protecting the lookout, maybe they left during the android massacre era, now the tribe was all empty.
*Step*
Falling down, Trunks touched the ground and walked upto the pole extending into the sky.
Patting the pole to see what he was dealing with, Trunks quickly removed his jacket and tied it around his waist.
"Ha!"
And transformed into a Super Saiyan, no way, he might be willing to respect tradition but that didn't stop him from speeding up the process a little.
"All right, let's go."
*Wiggle*
Climbing extremely quickly Trunks began making his way up with a funny posture, but although his posture was funny he was making rapid progress.
*Wiggle*
Moving his hands and legs up and down Trunks kept climbing with his cheeks a little red.
But he held on and it wasn't long that he could see a sphericalish structure up above.
*Clench*
Gripping onto the ladder Trunks's flipped and landed on the korin tower.
Now empty with no one is sight, Korin had come down a while ago to give senzu beans but was caught up in a blast, dying to the androids.
"Sorry"
Praying to Korin's soul, Trunks didn't stay here and climbed to the second floor, where he found the path further upwards.
A red pole extended upwards from the hole in the middle of Korin tower.
"That's Mr Goku's power pole?"
Trunks asked no one in particular, he had heard the stories and now was looking at it first hand.
Nevertheless, he jumped up, grabbed onto the pole and began making his way up once more.
After a few more minutes he could see an artificial island floating up above, gripping onto the ladder he climbed along it's edge.
*Flip*
And finally flipped onto the lookout, a little breathless from the lack of air in the lookout.
But it wasn't that which took his attention, it was the sudden and immediate dampening of his ki which did.
"My Ki, what's happening..? It feels as if the lookout is trying to contain it inside of my body."
"Weird, is this a part of being appointed a god? I don't think this is supposed to happen to anyone?"
Trunks's didn't understand why the lookout was being the way it was, but Earth was weak and he was a Super Saiyan, even with all it's effort the lookout wasn't able to keep his immense Ki from leaking in one go.
It'll take time for the lookout to change his Ki to god ki, but Trunks didn't know that, he didn't even know that he was already appointed the god the second he completed both trials and was deemed worthy in heart.
"It's weird, I feel as if I have a connection with the lookout, I think I can call someone..?"
Making a weird face Trunks wondered if he was overthinking this, because nothing had happened yet.
He was just standing here waiting for something to happen, but nothing did, so he figured he was alone and trusted his gut to try something.
"Ahem, is someone there? Please show yourself now."
Trunks expected no response because he could sense ki, he knew there was no one there.
"Hello Kami."
"Oh god!!"
That's why when a voice rang right behind him Trunks almost jumped out of his skin.
Turning around scared Trunks came face to face with a happy Mr Popo, and slowly calmed his beating heart.
"You, you must be Mr Popo, I am Trunks, sorry for intruding, I-"
"It's okay, you are now Kami, this is your lookout."
Mr Popo softly calmed down Trunks and said his part, which caused Trunks to open his mouth in wonder.
"That's it..?! I am Kami just like that?"
"Yes, just like that."
Mr Popo spoke again, without much resistance, only a slight feeling of sadness from remembering the old Kami.
But so was his nature as the guide of Earth's Kami, one goes another comes but he remains constant.
Guiding every Kami in the right direction, and from the looks of it, this new Kami needed a lot of guidance.
"Kami, Please calm yourself, I will tell you about your role shortly, but before that, would you like to see what Raditz is upto?"
"He is currently holding android 18, who's about to blow up, you can observe them from the edge if you would like."
Trunks's almost yelled out loud and rushed towards the edge of the lookout, there his eyes automatically crossed the distance and found Raditz just in time.
*Boooooooom*
For the explosion to shake the skies.
"Shit! I must go!"
"Kami, please only interfere when you absolutely need to."
Mr Popo advised softly, just like the Supereme Kai's, Kami's weren't supposed to interfere willy nilly with mortal's business.
It was a Kami's duty to guide the overall earth instead of meddling with the natural flow of life.
Trunks was appalled and wanted to argue but Popo softly calmed him down again, the new Kami had much to learn.
"Raditz is fine, please look again."
"You must learn restraint Kami, only in this way will you be able to bring the Earth back to working order sooner."
Trunks although not very happy with such restrictions placed upon him, did look again, and found Raditz was fine with only a few scuffs, it was android 18 who he was holding who was pretty badly injured.
But she was still breathing, meaning that Raditz had managed to disperse the blast well enough.
Sighing with relief Trunks once again focused his attention on Mr Popo, he seems to have a lot to learn about his new responsibilities.
"Mr Popo, I hope you won't tell me to do nothing at all as Kami."
"No, no Kami who is good can truly remain neutral, so some overall help is definitely possible, you have to judge it yourself Kami."
With that Mr Popo began to guide Trunks as the new Kami and Earth was slowly starting to receive vital energy.
Recovery was on it's way just from Trunks being on the God's seat.
And within due time, the Earth will feedback to it's Kami, forming a loop which will eventually lead to the birth of a new Super Saiyan God.
