A/n: I apologize for this short chapter. The next one won't be as short as this one.

Somewhere far away from the 7th universe, a tall man in strange clothing watched a crystal orb. The tall male's silver eyes narrowd in hatred at what he saw. "Mortals are monsters!" He hissed at the orb. Suddenly something interesting caught his silver eyes. He saw at the corner of the orb a golden flash. A person with a yellow halo around their neck stood at the atmosphere of the planet the tall man was watching. There was another. Both were males and they looked almost identical. The silver eyed male concluded that they were brothers. The green skinned man saw that they were talking to each other. He wondered what could it possibly be. The two brothers created something shiny and let it fall to the planet. The watching, green skinned man was startled by an older man's sudden appearance next to him. He dropped the orb, he was too late to catch the orb and it crashed onto the floor, breaking into thousands of little pieces. "Zamasu!" The older man scolded. The older, yellow skinned kai shook his head. He locked his black eyes with the younger man. His pupil's silver eyes were filled with embarrassment. "My deepest apologies, master Gowasu." Zamasu bowed. He then straightened up. "Is it tea time already?" He asked, surprised. Zamasu didn't think the time has gone by so fast. "I'll go and make us tea." The green skinned man started walking out of the room he was in. Zamasu suddenly wished that Akila was still here. She was great help around in the temple. "Wait Zamasu." Master Gowasu stopped him. The younger kai turned around to face his master. "You go take care of the orb you just broke." Gowasu told the young kai. Zamasu nodded his head and picked up the pieces of glass. After a few minutes, Zamasu realized that master Gowasu was gone. The white haired man took the broken piece and threw them away. Zamasu know that they have an orb somewhere else, he couldn't remember where it was. Zamasu walked down one of the corridors in the temple. He didn't like the way mortals acted. "Why does there have to be constant wars? Why can't mortals just use their brains?" Zamasu asked himself, mumbling random other things.

Zamasu suddenly stooped. It just felt natural for him to stop here. The silver eyed man looked up. He was infront of Akila's room. He hadn't come here since she left. Curiosity overtook the Supreme Kai in training. He carefully opened the door and peeked in. The room was neat and tidy. Everything at its place. It doesn't look like she left the temple. Zamasu would be lying if he said he didn't miss her because he actually misses her dearly. Zamasu's silver gaze traveled to her table. There he saw the orb he was searching for. A note was next to it. Zamasu picked up the note. 'I know you might be searching for this by now. Good luck with your training, Zamas. I'll visit as soon as I can. I'll miss you two.' A smile appeared on the cold Kai's face. He shook his head. Zamasu took the orb and took it to the room he was previously in. The green skinned kai placed the new orb I the old one's place. Zamasu smirked and turned away. The memory of the two strange men he saw returned to his mind. He wanted to know what's their business with his universe.

Zamasu exited the room and headed to the kitchen where he found master Gowasu. The older kai was busy making sandwiches. Zamasu glared at his master. He'll have to kill Gowasu so that he can't get in the way and that would also mean that the destroyer would automatically die and the attendant will become inactive until there's a new destroyer. Zamasu felt bad that Kusu will become dormant but he has a plan to put into action. His Zero mortal project. The ideal utopia without any mortals to destroy it. A world for the divinity. Zamasu quickly blinked away his glare and walked out of the kitchen. He wanted to get fresh air.

Zamasu breathed in the fresh air. The breeze carried the sweet sent of flowers, the tree's leaves followed the wind's direction. Zamasu decided to sit on the soft grass. Thoughts swarmed the young kai's mind. He couldn't understand how the others tolerated mortals. In his eyes they were disgusting creatures that can't use the brains they were given, they can only make war and destroy. The strange men he saw is also bothering him. 'Who could they be?' He asked himself. The green deity was puzzled by their existence. He don't know what those men were. 'They kind of look like Kusu.' Zamasu realized. He stood up, Zamasu remembered that there's an all-knowing being in the 7th universe named Zuno. Zamasu entered the temple and almost bumped into his master. "My apologies master." Zamasu apologies to Gowasu, bowing. However Zamasu didn't feel sorry at all. Gowasu shook his head at his apprentice's clumsy behavior.

The two kais of the 10th universe sat outside drinking tea when a loud crash surprised them. A mortal fell from the sky, falling on his butt. Two deities that master Gowasu know well landed on each side of the mortal with black spiky hair that stood up wildly in different directions. "Ow... my butt!" The mortal complained in a playful tone. His voice held no grudges. Zamasu glared at the mortal human. He doesn't like the fact that a mortal is here in this sacred place. "We apologize for coming here unannounced but we're here to investigate something." The attendant of the 7th universe said. This made Zamasu curious. "Welcome Lord Beerus,  Mr. Whis." Zamasu and Gowasu greeted the destroyer and his attendant. The destroyer and attendant dipped their heads in greetings. "We are here to investigate the time rings." Lord Beerus said. Zamasu's interest grew. He never knew that these artifacts existed. Maybe this artifact would help the silver eyed man reach his dream of a mortal free utopia. All he have to do now is keep an eye on his master and the deities of the 7th universe. His plan is forming, once it's complete, he'll kill them all. Zamasu can't have anyone standing in his way.

A few days after the visit from the deities of the 7th universe and a fight with that arrogant mortal, Zamasu had enough of this nonsense and he started finalizing his plan of his dream utopia. Zamasu planned to pay Zuno a visit to ask him about the saiyan called Goku and the two strange men he saw on the orb. The green skinned kai already formed a plan to get rid of Gowasu and take the time ring. He just have to wait for the perfect opportunity to strike.

//Earth; late afternoon//

A blond haied man and a black haird man stood infront of a window. The black haird man stared out of the window, his red eyes were watching the sun dipping over the horizon. The sky changing into beautiful shades of red, orange, a bit of yellow and pink. The blue eyes blond man gave the raiven haired man a cup of tea. "Master. You felt the energy too?" The blond man asked. His voice sounding smooth and charming but had a hint of worry in it. The black haired man nodded his head. "I felt it too. It means that she's back." He said to his blond companion. His voice sounded more rough, as if he rarely ever speaks. "I hope her presence here means something good." The blond man said. The black haired man drank his tea. "I think she'll visit us soon enough. It has been a very long time since we last saw her." The man infront of the window replied. It was a full moon. The raiven haired man realized, the moon made his eyes glow in the light and it made his pale skin look paler than usual. The blond man turned away from the window and walked away. He had a lot of things to do and little time to do it all.
