Chapter 33: A Heavy Loss

Start from the beginning
                                    

Kefla charged at Jiren but was immediately met with a punch to the face. Kefla slowly got back up

Jiren: You can't win...

Kefla: No.. but we can lose.. over and over again, as long as Y/N finds time to recover

Jiren: You seem to fight for Son Y/N. Why? Paying off a debt, proving him wrong? Or something more?

Kefla: SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTH!

Kefla ran right back at Jiren, and every time she went to hit him, she was met with a powerful hit to herself, but she didn't let up. Jiren blocks a few punch attempts before unloading punch after punch to Kefla

Y/N: K-KEFLA.... NO...

Jiren chops Kefla in the shoulder, bringing her to her knees

Jiren: Need I say it again? You stand no chance of winning.

Kefla: Even if we don't.. even if we don't land the finishing blow.. as long as Y/N survives.. that's fine by us...

Kefla faced Y/N, she had a smile on her face

Kefla: You never told us... what will you do if you win this?

Y/N: W-what..?

Kefla: What would you wish for, if you win this whole tournament, I mean?

Y/N: I-I want.. to bring back the erased universes.. and their inhabitants.

Kefla smiles

Kefla: I guessed so.. and with that out.. we're more than happy to die if it means Y/N wins this!

Kefla grabs Jiren's arm, but Jiren powered up, causing Kefla to lose her grip. Jiren spun Kefla around and punched her right in the face. Kefla went flying back, flying over the edge, crashing into several rocks before the gold plating of her boots caught the edge of a piece of debris, keeping her in the tournament.

Grand Priest: Contestant Kefla is still in contact with a part of the ring, therefore, she is still in the tournament!

Kefla weakly opened her eyes, seeing everything was upside down

Kefla: N-no more close calls...

Kefla dragged herself back up onto "solid" ground and slowly got herself back to her feet

Y/N: K-KEFLA..

Jiren: This battle is already over, Saiyans. You know it's futile and yet something pushes you on. What is it?

Kefla: Good question... Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand, because you're just a cold-blooded monster! YOU WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO FIGHT FOR OTHERS!

It was merely the Caulifla half of Kefla that kept her going, her Kale half wanted to do as Jiren said and jump out of the ring. Kefla heard Y/N's words echo through her mind

"Good try, try again. Keep getting back up, no matter what."

Kefla clenched her fist and powered up another Gigantic Burst. Kefla launched the attack, which Jiren took head-on, but Jiren still showed no signs of injury

Kefla: DAMMIT!

Kefla punched Jiren, but Jiren blocks the punch

Jiren: As your foe. I must acknowledge the power of your pride. But it's over.

Jiren punched Kefla high in the air, and a loud cracking sound erupted, Kefla defused back into Kale and Caulifla

Y/N: NO!

Jiren aimed his hand at the two Saiyans

Jiren: Get lost, both of you.

 Jiren launched a blast from his hand, throwing both Caulifla and Kale over the edge of the ring
