Dragon Ball Z Infinity/The Rise of Vollena (episode)

Season 1, Episode 6
==Transcript==
The episode opens with Trunks recovering from Vollena’s blow. He flies high into the sky and evades the Vollena-possessed Goten. Vollena gives fast pursuit.
Vollena: WHY ARE YOU RUNNING AWAY!?
Trunks momentarily looks at Vollena, not answering.
Trunks (voice): Just a little bit further so I can fight this guy without anyone else getting hurt.
Trunks saw a desert wasteland up ahead on the horizon. Trunks lets out a joyous laugh as he & Vollena fly over a small metropolitan area.
Vollena: ENOUGH!
Vollena points his index & middle finger up, imbuing them with intense Ki. Trunks feels it and his face becomes overridden with shock. Vollena swats his hands, launching his Furious Celestial Slash; a highly-concentrated curved energy wave.
Trunks narrowly evades it, and Vollena takes this chance to sock him down. Trunks flies through multiple buildings from the blow, creating havoc throughout the small city. The mayhem is intensified as Vollena’s Furious Celestial Slash slices through many more buildings; bringing forth their destruction.
Citizens across the city panic in all directions and try to flee as Vollena slowly descends from the sky toward the hole created by Trunks’ impact. Vollena stops more than halfway, however, when he sees a woman with her leg stuck under a totaled car.
City Woman: Whatever you are, please don’t hurt me!
Vollena shifts his descent in her direction.
Vollena: I don’t wish to hurt you. I wish to return you to the way you ought to be.
Vollena stretches his arm and points an energy sphere at the woman. Moments before release, Trunks violently gets out of his hole and lays into Vollena. The Gemrant is taken by surprise as he receives hard-hitting punches, one after the other.
Trunks delivers the blows faster each time as the two fighters make their way to the wasteland. Trunks finishes off his combo with a point-blank Buster Cannon. The blast is spectacular and Vollena can be heard bellowing from the fire and ash.
Vegeta’s son stares off at the fading smoke & brimstone, still on-guard.
Vollena (in the distance): It’s going to take more than that, boy!
Trunks: Fine by me!
Vollena: Triplets of the Beautiful!
Three large energy spheres are thrown at Trunks. The Saiyan warrior avoids the first two and kicks the third up into the air. Vollena, milliseconds later, rushes up to Trunks to dish out a multitude of punches & kicks. Trunks is able to match Vollena’s output. The two fighters, at this very moment, equalized each other.
Their subsequent attacks matched each other. The shockwaves can be heard for miles. Vollena hits Trunks with a surprise headbutt, followed by a kick to the stomach. Trunks meteors down to the desert wasteland ground; creating a large dust cloud from the impact.
Vollena rubs his face with his right hand before creating another energy sphere with it. He claps it down with the other hand. Releasing his hands from each other reveals the energy sphere divided into ten smaller versions of itself. Vollena smirks and then launches the attack, Celestial Bullet Blaster.
The energy bullets home in on the area that Trunks fell, and litter it with explosions. Trunks yells out in anguish. Moments later, however, Vegeta's son arises from the ashes. Heavy breaths and clothes half-torn. He swiftly flies up towards Vollena and goes for an elbow. The Gemrant blocks the attack with pushback. Vollena counterattacks by grabbing Trunks and throwing him down to the ground.
Trunks readjusts himself to stick the landing.
Trunks: Learn new tricks, old man!
Scene cut to a news helicopter about a half-mile away from the fight. A pilot and two reporters occupy the helicopter. One reporter inside sitting in the passenger seat. The other in the back with the doors open and a camera ready.
Passenger Reporter: Woah! Look up ahead!
A view of Trunks and Vollena firing & avoiding Ki Blasts in the desert wasteland is seen.
Passenger Reporter: Are you getting this!?
Back Reporter: Absolutely!
The helicopter continues towards the scene of the fight.
Back to Trunks and Vollena.
Vollena: Triplets of the Beautif-
Vollena's ushering is interrupted by an uppercut from his opponent. Trunks continues with punches timed with each of the five sentences.
Trunks: Get. Out. Of. My. Friend!
Each punch draws out a little blood. The blood is white because it is drawn from the celestial, not Goten. Vollena catches the sixth punch and counters with a punch to Trunks' face.
Trunks rockets through a small plateau. A coyote attempts to flee from the resulting debris, but sadly fails.
Vollena flies high enough to look down at the debris.
Vollena: Is this all the strength you can muster for your friend, little one!?
Cut to Trunks who falls down on to the desert ground. Laying on his backside, he's tired and bloodied up from head-to-toe. He hears a loud thud in front of him and looks up. It's Vollena standing over him. Vollena picks the teen up with one hand while Trunks struggles to get away.
Vollena: I could punch your head off right now and end this ordeal. But that would be boring. I want to make an example out of you.
Trunks: You're… You're sick.
Vollena rolls his eyes.
Vollena: Such forgettable last words.
They both hear the news helicopter flying in close.
Cut to the helicopter.
Passenger Reporter: Right there! Right there!
The back reporter focuses his camera on the two fighters below. The camera's HUD view is shown briefly where Vollena is looking right back up at the reporters.
Back Reporter: The spiky-haired one sees us.
He gives off a villainous smile, frightening the back reporter.
Cut to Trunks and Vollena in normal view.
Vollena: Oh… this is perfect.
Trunks: Don't do it.
Vollena's eyes glows white and emits a laser-like attack of the same color. The attack takes out the rotor blades and the helicopter begins to fall towards its doom. The occupants can be heard screaming.
Trunks: NO!
Vollena: Go save them, you weakling.
Vollena lets go of Trunks and the half-Saiyan warrior promptly flies toward the falling helicopter. He gets under it and holds it steady.
Quick cut of Vollena looking up with his arms crossed, smile gone.
Back to Trunks, he safely descends down to the ground. Then, sets the helicopter down. The pilot and the reporters initially run out to thank their hero, but are overridden with fear when they find Vollena right behind him.
Vollena: This is only a fraction of what I'll do to you if you disobey me.
Vollena backstabs Trunks through the chest with a piece of the rotor blade. The scene turns to purple to mark the disastrous turn of events. The pilot and reporters look on horrified. Vollena maintains his serious face. Trunks' pupils shrink and nearly disappear. The scene returns to normal color view.
Vollena: The three of you will become my prophets.
Vollena looked at the pilot.
Vollena: Weaver.
Then, at the passenger reporter.
Vollena: Farhan.
And lastly, at the back reporter.
Vollena: Eliteman.
Back Reporter: But those aren't our names.
Vollena: They are now.
While still holding a half-dead Trunks, Vollena powers up. The helicopter crew looks on in shock. The Gemrant lifts his hands to the sky and a dark cumulonimbus cloud forms over them. Lightning streaks across the cloud before it strikes the reporters, seemingly killing them.
Going into Vollena's mind, he is seen alone within a black, blank space.
Vollena: Panapit is beyond hope. But I can make this world be what that world failed to be.
The reporters join him in the blank space. They are seen in front of him.
Vollena: Through you, my prophets, will my vision be realized.
The Gemrant outstretched a hand and shot a transformative blast at the reporters, fundamentally changing them.
The pilot (29), a female brown-haired human, had her pilot attire changed to a similar gi that Vollena wore. Black, white, and purple, but she also bore Vollena's insignia on the upper right side of her gi. Her figure became fit, muscles toned, and her ponytail hair turned white with golden streaks. Weaver.
The passenger reporter (35), a male black-haired human, had his clothes changed to Vollena's standards, same as Weaver. His porky stature was redone to be muscular and fit. His hair turned white with orange streaks. Farhan.
The back reporter (30), a blonde-haired human, had his clothes changed the same as his peers. He was already in good shape and his hair turned white with flaming red streaks. Eliteman. 
Vollena: I have given the three of you a sliver of my full power.
Exiting Vollena's mind and back to the material world, the transformations are made final. The Prophets patiently await their lord's orders.
Vollena: I want you to go to the major populaces of this world and tell them to comply to me. If any belligerent fighters like the one in my hand tries to stop you, squash them.
Cut to a close-up of Vollena.
Vollena: Show the depth of your power to the regular people of this world. If they try to run away or resist, kill them. I can't afford to give anymore 'unwillings' the same power I gave you.
Return to a view of Vollena and his Prophets.
Vollena: Whoever is willing to comply, round them up from each city and I will show you where to bring them so they too can truly live. Once this planet is occupied only by people serving me, it will be fast-tracked to a civilization unlike any other. When the rest of the universe hears the Earth's name, they will cripple with fear.
Vollena motions for them to come close to him.
Vollena: Die slowly, little one.
The Gemrant throws Trunks way into the horizon. Trunks shines like a star from the sun's glare before no longer being visible. Vollena then hugs his underlings.
Eliteman: Hey, let's make our lord proud.
Weaver & Farhan (in unison): Okay!
Eliteman gives a playful wink at Vollena. The Gemrant smirks and chuckles. After the hug, the Prophets fly off.
Close-up of Vollena's face, smirk still present. Fade to black.
Fade open to Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, and Piccolo as Team Alpha appearing at Capsule Corporation via Instant Transmission on a balcony. The group looks around.
Goku: I feel three distinct energies. Not just one like King Kai described.
A sliding door opens with Bulma running out of it. Frantically running up to the group.
Bulma: Thank goodness you guys are here! I've been calling Trunks' phone over and over and he hasn't picked up!
Vegeta: Probably to get away from his nagging mother.
Bulma: This isn't funny, Vegeta! Something could be radically wrong with our son!
Gohan: Hold on, I feel a very faint presence coming this way.
Close-up of Vegeta's face shows his face overcome with shock. The scene briefly turns blue before reverting to normal colors. He recognizes that faint energy as his son's.
Goku: Yeah, I feel it too.
The body is fast heading for the top of the Capsule Corp building. Vegeta suddenly flies up and catches the body before it hits the building. Vegeta looks down and finds his son all bloodied up, huge chest wound, and barely struggling for life.
Vegeta: What… the…
Vegeta is practically speechless.
Bulma: What's going on up there?
She asks with a hand over her eyes to cover from the sun. Goku, Gohan, and Piccolo all look up, knowing what had befallen Trunks. Piccolo slowly flies up, leaving Bulma in bewilderment. Once he is with Vegeta.
Piccolo: I'll take him to Dende.
Vegeta nods as Piccolo takes Trunks discreetly and flies away at great speed. The blood is still on Vegeta's gloves as he looks down. He then closes his eyes and regains his composure. He descends back down to the group.
Bulma: So are you guys gonna keep me in the dark or what?
Vegeta: Trunks was beaten within an inch of his life.
He shows the blood on his gloves. Bulma put her hands over her mouth in horror.
Bulma: What!?
Vegeta: It'll be alright. He's going to get healed.
Bulma's horror turned into bright anger.
Bulma: How could Goten do that to him!?
Gohan: Woah, woah, woah. Goten would never do that to Trunks.
Bulma sarcastically laughs.
Bulma: Well, who else has the fighting power to do that and constantly spars with him?
Mrs. Brief comes out of the sliding door.
Mrs. Brief: Hey guys, you need to watch the news right now.
Cut to Team Alpha, Bulma, Mrs. Brief, and Scratch watching the news. 
News Anchor: This just in, Mini City today was ravaged today by a battle between two powerful forces. We warn you that the following images are disturbing.
The newscaster on the TV shows footage of Trunks vs. Vollena in Mini City. Screams, sirens, and fallen debris are the main things heard. Goku and Gohan are visibly angered by the mayhem, Bulma and Mrs. Brief watched in horror, while Scratch simply meowed. Vegeta looks to be slightly miffed.
News Anchor: The casualties so far have been decided at 1,034 dead and 2,221 injured. A news helicopter tracked that the battle had moved to the nearby desert wasteland.
The TV displayed camera footage from the Back Reporter of the battle overhead. It highlighted Trunks and Vollena's faces.
News Anchor: Police aren't able to identify the two suspects as one's body was mutilated beyond examination while the other doesn't match any human records on file.
Bulma began to cry into Vegeta's shoulder. Everyone, outside of Vegeta, looked at her with sympathetic eyes. Vegeta rubbed Bulma's back to comfort her while keeping his eyes on the screen. A close-up of Vollena's face is shown again on the screen.
Slow zoom-in frontal shot of Goku looking back at the screen. He puts a fist under his chin, thinking.
Goku: Goten?
Cut to black.
