Brachi smiled as she continued to comfort the distraught Majin Bara, for once having a bit of happiness back... yet her concern for the others of her universe didn't waver...
 
Before Spina could make a response, before he vanished and the real Gogeta came into fruition. Yet, in reality, Spina probably couldn’t really think of a way to come back against that—he wasn’t speaking an untruth for that manner. 

“My, you seems to be left rather speechless, Spina. Don’t tell me you have an adversary out there that able to do that to you?” Lucifer wanted to see what kind of reaction Spina would give.

“He isn’t an adversary…” That was the only thing Spina could mutter. His mind wander, seeing what he was truly doing wrong; perhaps, his methods or his actions was started to fall apart. Even when Cuki awaken, and shouted at the thought of her tail missing, and chomped onto Gogeta’s tail, didn’t break him out of the turmoil he was in.

As Spina’s mind distanced away from the things unfolding in front of him, Lucifer, on the other than decides to leave him be for now, to focus on Cuki.

“Tail? Oh, I do recall you Saiyans have tails, but never know the purpose of that.” Lucifer started to notice when Cuki was biting on Gogeta’s tail. “Is it important to your species? Kind of like fusion?” He looks at all the Saiyans that were there and turned to Bernkastel and Cross. “Saiyans seemingly have some endless ways to evolve.” He rubbed his chin.
 
Cross says as the creature follow Lucifer vanishes "Most mortal species tend to do this a lot."
 
"They practically are freaks of nature, aren't they?" Bernkastel commented, though it wasn't made with a tone of malice, it was made matter-of-factly. "Growing a tail after having the first removed... is quite disturbing. If it weren't for the noise that sounded like a stampede of animals, we would have gotten the wrong idea about what kind of 'training' they were doing," she said in reference to watching them leave the doorway with a naked Cuki in tow. "We might have mistaken it for something unforgivably criminal..." Bern trailed off with a head-shake. The exchange between 'him' and Spina was too perplexing to her due to the fact he was the only one aware of who exactly the 'real Vegetto' was. But it was still just Gogeta in the end, although Spina looked very shaken up.

The real one, huh?... is it really, if that entity referred to the Vegetto we know? Does that mean one is more fake than the other, or something more? What a funny little enigma you are, Gogeta, Bernkastel mused silently before speaking up again. "My, we really did miss out on something good. But something seems amiss here... why exactly is Cuki missing her tail? It's not some act of sadistic retribution you did, was it?" She questioned Gogeta, ignoring the fact he was busy getting his tail chewed off.
 
As Panich made her way into the room with Brachi and Bara, she stopped suddenly in surprise at all the commotion in front of them. Cuki scrambling to find a robe to cover her nude body, Spina being shaken up by a fully transformed super Saiyan four Gogeta. It all seemed very overwhelming.

"There's a lot to take in here I see..." Panich chuckled a bit, crossing her arms. "What exactly happened during your little training session? I see Gogeta benefited from it but... Cuki...?" 

She tilted her head a bit to get a better look at the young Saiyan biting down viciously on the Fusion's tail.
 
Both Brachi and Bara blinked as they watched the scene in front of them, with Brachi gone back into her base form.

"What is going on here?!" Brachi asked.
 
Gogeta blinked in confusion in the momentary exchange between Spina and Lucifer. Paying no attention to Cuki rushing around behind him, Gogeta scratched the back of his head while raising his right eyebrow at Spina.

“You sure? He knew you pretty well, it sounds like you guys fought a lot and-”

His eyes suddenly widened, the electric signals coming from the nerves on his tail flooding his brain. He helped, quickly whirling around and grabbing his tail at its base, then holding it up slightly to see Cuki clamped down onto the end by her teeth.

“Arghh!! Hey!! That hurts!!”

Gogeta twitched in pain, his eyes welling up with tears. He repeatedly thwacked his tail onto the floor, trying to beat Cuki enough on the floor to force her to let go, his pain stricken dual voice ringing out as he was questioned.

“I didn’t do anything! She wouldn’t calm down as an Oozaru!! So Spina cut off her tail-aiyeee ya ya!! Let go! It hurts!!”
 
"What?!" Cuki muffled before letting go of Gogeta's tail due to his flailing. She spat out a few hairs caught in her mouth. "An Oozaru..? What's an Oozaru? Baah! Never mind that! So... Spina cut off my tail? But... why?"

Cuki turned to face Spina, holding back tears and trying her best to look mature and calm despite her earlier reaction. To Cuki, her tail meant a lot to her since she used it as another appendage and helps her cook. She saw her tail almost like a friend, especially since she took so much care for it. The stump left was embarrassing for the Saiyan and it was starting to become apparent how Cuki acted in comparison to her age. She desperately tried to hide her boiling emotions from the others by crossing her arms. Her nails dug into the fabric of the robe she wore and her face was still red from the humiliating naked moment she put herself in. Her eyes frantically looked between all the Breakers as she cleared her throat. It was clear she was holding back the urge to cry by how often her voice cracked.

"I-I look like a stump-tailed freak now! How are we going to get my tail back, huh?! It's gone forever and you took it, Spina! Even worse, you and this idiot saw me naked! Everyone did! You--- I... It's just so embarrassing! Why did you take my tail?! What did I ever do to you?! Why do I keep losing things..?" Cuki's voice lowered so she spoke to herself in a venomous tone. "...They continue to take from her..."
 
“Freaks of nature is an understatement.” Lucifer responded. “They remind me of Demons that spawn in my original world. They fight, destroy, and get stronger… but this… this is quite something. Saiyans… what a strange species.” His eyes locked onto Cuki freaking out about the loss of her tail, yelling at Spina for being the culprit. Yet, the small angel noticed Spina had completely withdraw from the event.

Spina’s eyes falter when Cuki approached him angrily about her missing tail. His mind was completely elsewhere. As several seconds passed, the old Saiyan came back from reality, just nearing the end of Cuki’s complaints about her missing tail.

“… why are you crying? Your tail will simply grow back.” Spina brush her off, taking a few steps back. “Nothing happen. She was caught in something she wasn’t meant to, and things got a little crazy for a second. So I had to do what I needed to do, otherwise, she’ll end up destroying the apartment. She needs to quit acting like a chil—” Unknowingly, Spina bump into Bara in the process.

He turned around to see what he fell on, only to realize that it was Bara. “…What? Bara?” Spina blinked twice to see if that was truly her. He didn’t even notice her as everyone came around Gogeta, Cuki and himself. “…. Her Coin returned? Does that mean…”

“No. As I stated before, as long the coin is being used, they cannot return to their natural state.” Lucifer responded. “And the Coin Hunter having that other friend of yours, he remains locked into place, until you defeat them. Bara returned, simply because her time was ready.” Lucifer addressed, seeing that at least another person had recognized that Bara had seemingly returned. “Though, you should’ve seen it. Your body forming after being trapped in the Coin… beautiful, really. But this does leads to another interesting thing, since you’re so eager to leave.” He turns to Bernkastel and Cross. “We have some information about the Coin Hunter, and I’ll let them address it. You can process the other information later.”
 
Both Brachi and Majin Bara were interested in the information regarding the Coin Hunter, although Bara waved at Spina and the others to let them know she was really back. 

"Do you need to be filled in by the others?" Brachi then asked.

Bara shook her head.

"While I was being a coin... it was... as if I was just sleeping... but I could hear everything you have said and done during that time... your concern for the others and me, you mourning the loss of Gervene... you dedicating yourself to training over the past years... I heard it all... which was what, at least to me, brought me back at least..." Bara said, making Brachi blink at that.
