Turles meets Ai part 5

Turles looked at the injured Ai for a moment longer, then looked at the door. None of his men were around. Something was stirring in his chest that he had never felt before. The harsh warrior inside him had difficulty fathoming it. What was it? Why was he fretting over this girl? He clenched a fist in frustration, unable to decipher his own mind. Then he relaxed his hand and acted simply on impulse. He was alone save for Ai. Taking a breath he closed his eyes and planted a small kiss on her forhead. It just felt right...
"Oh well. Time to get to gardening..." he muttered as he left.

Ai woke up some time later. She felt much better than she had before, but was still sore. She had taken quite a beating! She exited her room and was surprised to find the ship empty. All her shipmates were gone. Where were they? Then she noticed the strange viewing screen that Turles sometimes used. They weren't in space anymore. They were on a planet she didn't recognize. There was a fight going on! From the looks of things, it was brutal. Her team mates were down! All except Turles. She used the screen to search out what was happening. There! Turles in a strange outfit. Wait, there he was again in his normal armor! Was there two of him? A twin brother? A clone? Ai furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. Her team mates were badly injured, she could tell. Rezin and his brother were dead. Whoever had fought them packed a real wallop. Almond was crippled, coughing up blood. Daiz was badly hurt, and his other team mate was badly damaged. She had to help them at least! She was confident that Turles could handle himself.

Ai quickly flew to her allies aid. Daiz weakly stood, but was in no shape to fight. He was almost glad when Ai arrived.
"C'mon... Help me... We need to get them on board the ship..." Daiz said weakly, throwing Almond to his shoulder.
"Sure, but whats happening?" Ai asked, starved for information.
"Some other saiyan here on Earth... Turles is gonna get 'im, he got the fruit from the tree." Daiz nodded to the fruit hanging from the ceiling.  They held a great deal of energy... She could feel it... Then she felt the power of Turles and the mystery saiyan. What strength! Turles must be 15 times more powerful than he was before, maybe more... But whoever she was fighting was no push over, and was fighting back fiercely. He might need help!
"Daiz, take whoever is left alive and take them back to the ship. Get ready to take off!" Ai ordered. The mystery saiyan was gathering strength...  She shuddered, afraid of what he would conjure.
"But, we've almost got this won! Why run?" Daiz asked, confused.
"Now!" Ai ordered. This time Daiz obeyed, taking his surviving team mates back to the ship.

Turles roared in pain, overwhelmed by the unbelievable power of Kakarott's Spirit Bomb. Where did he get this power!? Why hadn't Kakarott used it before? This couldn't be happening! His armor burned and cracked, falling away. Death was near. Just before he lost conciousness, surrendering himself to destruction, he thought he saw Ai coming for him... She was so pretty... Perhaps if he had lived, he might have done more for her... Then he lost conciousness.
