The Maggie-Pigeon was shocked to see Lich appear by her side and quickly fluttered away like a normal pigeon would when it would get scared. It flew off into the distance for the meanwhile and joined another flock of pigeons while trying to avoid the suspicion. 

Sheesh, that was too close for comfort... Maggie thought to herself. But there's no doubt they probably hate this guy by now! I can't wait to see the look on his dumb face!

As time passed on, Cuki was slowly starting to stir up. She wasn't yet awake but at least it it looked like she was finally breathing. She turned slightly to hide her face within one of the cushions of her sofa and let her tail dangle over the edge. She mumbled slightly but none of it was understandable. At least Cuki was ok and was slowly healing up from her battle.
 
Whis turned his head toward the Voice, a small smile forming.

"My apologies...Kassava here has just had her entire ego shattered. It is simply what happened when she placed all of her value in others."

He then reached out, gripping onto Kassava's right arm and slowly tugging her towards the exit.

"Don't worry everyone, she'll be ready to fight by tomorrow. I can now train her properly, thanks to Demi-Fiend's efforts."

Kassava shook her head from side to side, resisting against Whis' grip with little effort as she was pulled.

"No! I don't want to train! I wanna go home!"

Whis sighed.

"Come along, Kassava. I know you're almost as embarrassed as I am...but that's no excuse. A little sparring match that got out of hand isn't going to push your husband away and you know it. Let's train and put all of this behind us, hmm?"

Kassava lowered her head slightly, her lack of resistance being her response as Whis slowly dragged her by the arm out of the apartment, his smile returning as he waved to the others.

"We'll be back tomorrow morning! Have a good night everyone!"

Without waiting for much of a reply, Whis and Kassava both disappeared into the hallway before leaving the apartment complex entirely.
 
"Please wait your turn, Snow; I'm not through with my friends yet. Come at me." Gervene said, turning to face the two women.

Both Brachi and Majin Bara charged in once more, with Gervene once again keeping up with them perfectly, striking, parrying and blocking their movements where needed. Where Brachi attempted to deliver a swift kick to her head, Gervene blocked the strike with her upper left arm, before nailing Brachi in her stomach with her lower left arm while dealing both a gut punch and an uppercut with her right arms to Majin Bara, who in turn retaliated with a Mouth Energy Wave, which the Goddess of Destruction halted with only her upper right index finger. It was obvious that Gervene was a fair yet harsh teacher on her regard, not too shy to fight back. Using her upper arms to throw a punch to both women's heads, just stopping short in front of their faces, Gervene watched as Brachi and Majin Bara hopped backwards to get some distance in.

"What are you waiting for?! You're faster than this!" Gervene said to them as she got in a stance to entice them to attack again.

Brachi and Majin Bara hopped in a stance of their own, the Majin sweating a little, while Brachi was slightly straining a bit, given she's been in her Mystic form the whole time.

"Don't THINK you are... KNOW you are!" Gervene then said as she beckoned the two women to come at her again, which they obliged to in an instant. 

Both Brachi and Majin Bara moved in with another onslaught of melee attacks, before Brachi backflipped to get some distance in and fired a Kamehameha wave without announcing her attack,with Majin Bara firing her Majin Kamehameha in conjunction with Brachi's, the two attacks merging to a blue energy wave with pink energy swirling around it, which Gervene slapped upwards without even trying, charging at the women again, blocking Brachi's Meteor Crash attack, while easily dispatching parts of Majin Bara's body whom attempted to use her Body Manipulation to her advantage, but for now Gervene was clearly superior as she eventually caught both women's arms in an arm lock.

"Come on! Stop TRYING to hit me and HIT me!" Gervene snapped at the two, who then pressured on to go on the offensive, with Brachi gradually beginning to see through Gervene's patterns as her movements were increasing in speed, as if nearly reaching her current limit, but this was not enough as Gervene easily caught up with her, although she did notice the slight development in Brachi's movements, deciding to keep watch on her..
 
After the various gods had left, Raune gave the Voice of utter dissapointment.

“You are perhaps the most ungrateful person I’ve had the displeasure of working with. The sooner these trials are over with, the better it would seem.” He scolded before looking to Spina with gloom.

“All of my body was vaporized, except for my vital organs. I was less than mincemeat... Thanks for bringing up the experience of my near death again, dissolving into the speedforce.” He said before sighing.

“I’m going to go find somewhere to rest alone, probably the roof. If dinner is made, I’ll come back but, otherwise I’d prefer to have my isolation.”
 
Voice watched Raune and the others retreat back to the rooftop and rooms respectively. Ungrateful. Pride. Ego. Resolution. Apathy. "What a troublesome group I have encountered." the voice rubbed his head rapidly, frustrated at this predicament. In his thoughts alone came swarm with anger out of frustration."This is not going to work. I thought I found some noteworthy group, but instead, I just got problems after problems. Cuki, Vegetto, Bernkastel and the Lich was enough to handle. Take on Doom and get those tools. Perfect. Then, everyone else started to appear and the group expands. The conversation gets lost because no one is comfortable communicating with one another right!" the voice gritted his teeth. "I need to fix this quickly! The first day was such a disaster! Dodgeball went up in flames because of the new kid. Three people got extremely hurt over a damn spar! And for what?!" 

The voice took a deep breath, still continuing into his thoughts. "No, I just need to calm down. We still got two weeks to turn this around. I need to ensure that everyone is on the same page here. Ensure that everyone gets the message." He turns to Spina, who went back to sleep after his conservation with Raune, along with Cuki. Food is definitely not a factor here after what happened. "Yes... I will make sure they're in top condition...starting tomorrow... it's time for a brand new approach." 

The Next Day

The Crows started to shriek, their screams can often be confused as someone being brutally killed, as the sun rises over the horizon of this strange realm. Spina opened his eyes and yawned. 

"Damn, how long I been out?" Spina said. "Fuck... I'm starving." He stood up, realizing that he still has the clothes that Raune gave him. "I definitely need some new attire that suited for my tastes. If that damn kid didn't do what he did..." He went to the fridge, hoping to grab something to drink to refresh himself. His mouth was dry as a bone and his mouth was unable to produce enough saliva to make his mouth moist. When he opened, there were no drinks. Literally nothing. Milk carton was seemingly empty. The orange juice box looked like it had been crushed by someone's bare hands. Other beverages seem empty, but the cans were left in the fridge. "What the hell? Even the water is gone?"

Spina's ears twitched, hearing a gulping sound from the distance. He turned around, seeing Demi-Fiend drowning a gallon of water into his mouth.

Demi-Fiend was in the chair and slammed the empty bottle of water onto the table. "AHHHHHH!" Demi-Fiend, satisfied, smiled. "That was fucking delicious!!!" He looked over to Spina, seemingly pissed off. "Oh, good morning! Hope you don't mind me crashing into your place whenever I want. The doors were locked, so I [broke] used your window."

"Delicious? It's fucking water...."  Spina thought to himself. "What the hell are you doing here? I could have sworn you left or something... though I was in and out of consciousness to hear anything." He looked at the empty water bottle. "You literally have to drink every beverage in this kitchen?" 

"I was thirsty though," Demi-Fiend looked around. "Where's everyone? Still asleep?"
 
A few miles away from the apartment

=========

Kassava's arm hung at her sides, her breathing extensively labored as the rays of light from the sun bounced off her skin. She grimaced at the sound of the crows, feeling an odd connection to the shriek. Her eyes lifted, nearly groaning at the sight of Whis landing gently a few feet in front of her.

"Can we take a break now?! We've been training all night!"

Whis kept a blank expression, his arms lifting up and charging forward at Kassava. He planted his feet firmly once he had close the gap to her, launching his left fist forward while Kassava's arm shot up to parry the strike. Her expression noticeably strained in keeping pace with the hit, her right arm flying up to catching the incoming follow up from Whis' right fist. She threw up her opposing arm again, expecting Whis' fist to fly forward once more, but froze at the millisecond his arm bent, his elbow slamming into her shoulder and promptly shooting her into the ground with a thunderous shockwave.

Whis frowned slightly, watching Kassava attempt to push herself up with wobbling arms.

"Clear your mind."

Kassava fell face first onto the ground again, panting heavily while Whis loomed over her.

"Your body knows you no longer can keep this up: it's fighting against you. Give in."

Kassava winced, huffing heavily with a dazed stare.

"The strong...aren't supposed to give up..."

Whis' smile rose.

"That didn't stop you from quitting, did it?"

Kassava grunted in response, her arms struggling to push her off the ground. Her entire body burned in agony, the muscles seemingly ripping inside of her arms as she struggled to push herself off the ground. Whis watched on, his smile disappearing slowly as his tone grew stern.

"You've been taught your entire life that giving in is failure. It's an admirable sentiment...but you've been blind to the real truth about your body. Your mind keeps commanding it to rise, to stand and continue fighting. But why should it?"

Kassava turned her head up slightly, staring up at Whis who sighed lightly.

"It's been over nine hours of constant struggle, and your mind has proven it isn't able to figure out how to win. The body follows your command at the start, but with each failure, it loses confidence in your ability to lead. So it rebels, not in a desire to quit or to surrender: it wants to take charge. To lead."

Whis narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Stop fighting it. Clear your thoughts...clear your mind. Let it flow."

His left foot reeled back, preparing to punt Kassava. His smile returned, watching Kassava turn her eyes to the glowing energy forming around his shoe, the energy specifically roaring with an ominous pitch in an attempt to focus her attention.

"Trust in it: the power will come."

Whis threw his leg forward, his narrowed eyes watching Kassava as she lay face first on the ground. His eyes barely shifted once his shoe suddenly came to a halt, following the hand that caught his foot. Whis kept his smile, staring down at Kassava's eyes, a small flash of silver finally resonating in her pupils. Her eyes then widened, darting around for a moment before landing on the hand that caught the foot. Her eyebrows quickly narrowed again once she had realized what she had done, her arms visibly tensing.

"Kaioken!!"

Whis blinked, his robes blasting back slightly from the surge of violent red energy exploding outward around Kassava's body. However, she quickly recoiled, the power completely fading as she clutched her abdomen in pain and writhed on the ground.

"Ow ow ow ow!!"

Whis sighed heavily, shaking his head from side to side once. His head turned to the side, glancing towards the apartment complex off in the distance with a flat stare.

"Well...it's progress I suppose. Perhaps we should call it a day."
 
At the same moment...

"You two do show some progress, but you two have a long way to go." Gervene said to the two women whom were barely conscious and quite injured, clearly having gone through quite the training session with the Goddess of Destruction.

Brachi was panting visibly as she was back into her base form now, laying face down on the ground, trying to get her bearings together, while Majin Bara managed to sit up on one knee, using her regeneration skill to patch herself up.

"It is interesting to know how far you can take this, mainly due to the rules and regulations of this place in general... your condition would be a lot more critical if it weren't for that." Gervene said.
 
Snow and Amaterasu were panting from their training session as well. Amaterasu said "Good, but I noticed that you were hesitant to use the darker powers of yours, Why?" He said "I can't control myself when I use them. I cannot discern friend from foe and attack indiscriminately." She nodded "You know that I can handle it, and I think I know why you are like that." Snow looked at her, confused "How so?" She giggled "Yami was the same way. You let your emotions control you with those powers, so why not try blocking them out when you use them?" Snow looked stunned, then smacked his head "How did I not realize that?" He then helped Her to the rest area, and then saw his friends "Gervene really put you through the ringer huh?"
 
(( I edit my post! Please review my post again before replying to me!! ))​

Cuki was finally stirring up from her slumber and opened her eyes. She sat up and gripped her chest at a small pain she felt when her heart is still recovering. Not remembering the last moments of her battle she sighed knowing that she might have most likely lost. She rose to her feet and stretched her aching body as she strolled her way to the kitchen only to see that breakfast was not made and that Demi-Fiend was drinking all of the water in her fridge. 

"Why is there no breakfast? I thought Mr. Vegetto was going to cook or something." Cuki looked around her kitchen and noticed that not a single thing had been moved which lead her to believe that Vegetto didn't make dinner as he promised. Her floors were still dirty thanks to Demi-Fiend skipping out on his part. Her gazed lowered and she let out a depressed sigh. "Right... Guess I gotta do it then."

Cuki seemed upset and depressed about something, the fight she had with Kassava seemed to really hit a nerve with her and she wasn't acting like herself. Regardless of how she acted she began to make breakfast by cracking eggs, sizzling bacon, and preparing fresh coffee. Her face seemed distracted and she wasn't as happy as she normally is when she cooked food. turned her back to the others as she began to make a large set of scrambled eggs. 

You can't even lay a hand on me and yet you still refuse to admit defeat. Kassava's voice echoed in her head. Your pride is blinding you! Can't you see the writing that's on the wall? Admit that you're wrong and surrender.

Cuki's eyes narrowed but her stare remained blank.

You think that being strong is just about how bad you want it?! You think you can match my power, just because you want to?! It takes years of training, years of losing to be strong! You don't just win because you want to: you gotta earn it, punk!!

Her teeth gritted at the thought and her hand tighten around the pan handle and seemed oblivious to the fact that her eggs were burning. The confusion, anger, and self loathe consumed her thoughts and she assumed that Kassava was right about her and her potential.
 
In the area around the apartment building, a sound rang out from far away. The sound of air collapsing from a slipstream, followed by a crunch of an impact, at last ended by a supersonic boom ringing out at someone hit a wall with their fist when moving as fast as they could.

”Pancake delivery! Hope you’re hungry! Could someone open this?” Shouted a distinctive voice outside Cuki’s door.
