Son Gohan VS Superman
by
Rhonnel Ferry
Wonder Woman grabs Videl by the throat, and slams the girl's back into the base of the mountain, shattering a portion of its surface!
"You selfish fool!" the furious Amazon roars, on the verge of tears. "What makes your love more special than ours, that you would sacrifice my man to save yours?!"
Videl can't bear to look the woman in the eye. She turns her head away, and remains silent. Diana almost punches her in the face, but stops herself when she realizes that the girl has no intention of either fighting back or even defending herself.
"Please forgive us!" Son Gohan yells.
Diana turns, and finds the young man on his hands and knees, his head bowed to the ground.
"I can save him," Gohan promises her. "I can defeat Boo-boo, and get Superman back."
"How?" Diana asks, releasing Videl. "He's beaten you once already."
"I am a Saiyan. We have an uncanny ability to naturally become stronger after every difficult fight, whether we win or lose. Essentially, I am now much stronger than the Boo-boo/Son Gohan that Superman defeated earlier!"
Diana quietly ponders the boy's suggestion.
#
'Incredible!', Boo-boo/Superman thinks, staring at his hands. 'This Kryptonian's power levels are almost godlike!'
"Boo-boo!" Gohan interrupts his ruminations.
"Oh. The old model," Boo-boo/Superman unenthusiastically says. "Go away, boy. I am eager to test the extent of my new host's power, but not on you. He's already proven you are not his match. I haven't the inclination nor the time."
"Make time!" Gohan challenges him.
The boy's dark, spiky hair becomes golden, his eyeballs turn emerald green, as Gohan transforms into the more powerful Super Saiyan!
He shouts a battle cry, then charges forward, landing a fearsome left straight right into Boo-boo/Superman's face!
But to Gohan's surprise, his enemy is seemingly unharmed.
"You simpleton," Boo-boo/Superman mocks him. "When I possess beings, my significant power level reinforces theirs. In other words, I am much stronger than the Superman that easily defeated our combination earlier! What makes you think you could possibly have a chance of defeating me now?!"
He backhands the startled youth, launching Super Saiyan Son Gohan backwards into the air! Boo-boo/Superman chases after him, and grabs his ankle with both hands. Then he swings the boy around and around, before finally throwing him into a clump of trees! Several tree trunks and branches shatter as the Super Saiyan crashes into them!
"That's enough," Videl tells Wonder Woman, standing from behind the dense shrubbery concealing them. "We have to help him, now!"
"Stay down!" Diana whisper shouts, roughly yanking the girl by the arm. "Stick to the plan! Son Gohan asked for a chance. We're going to give him one."
"Where did you go?" Boo-boo/Superman hisses after following Super Saiyan Son Gohan into the forest.
As he searches, he learns to use Superman's X-ray vision, and he finds his quarry hiding behind the thick trunk of a large tree.
'Nice trick,' Boo-boo/Superman comments on the newly discovered ability. 'Must work great on the ladies.'
Then with his heat vision, he burns a hole into the tree, and painfully sears the Super Saiyan's shoulder!
Gohan howls in agony! He falls to the ground, clutching his injury. But when he senses the enemy nearing, he springs back up to his feet, raises his fists, and faces his opponent.
"My, you are a stubborn one," Boo-boo/Superman scoffs in irritation. "Let's end this fight, now. I have cities I intend to burn into the ground. Starting with yours."
Boo-boo/Superman attacks with, of course, a superman punch. The Super Saiyan rushes under it. And when Boo-boo/Superman turns around to face him, Son Gohan surprises the criminal with a spin kick to the face!
Boo-boo/Superman just smirks. Then a trickle of blood in the corner of his mouth surprises him.
"What-?" he begins, as he touches his lip, and stares at the red drops at his fingertips.
"His woman shared a little secret," Gohan explains. "He's like a solar battery. He uses the sun as a power source. It's night. You've been expending his energy with no means of recharging."
For once, Boo-boo/Superman is speechless, nervously wondering if the boy is just bluffing.
"You want to know the source of my power?" Gohan asks, taking a fearless step forward. "It's rage."
Boo-boo/Superman takes a fearful step back.
"You possessed me," the Super Saiyan continues. "Almost used me to destroy my own city. But worst of all? You made my girl cry. Boo-boo, you have fed my anger plenty!"
His entire body becomes completely surrounded in golden flame and blue electricity, as Gohan transforms into the even stronger Super Saiyan 2!
Super Saiyan 2 Son Gohan dashes forward! Boo-boo/Superman throws a straight right, but the Saiyan/human hybrid ducks under it, and delivers a powerful left elbow to the solar plexus, that makes the much bigger man buckle!
With the alien criminal's head bent forward, the following left backfist to the chin becomes twice as painful!
Gohan does an outside leg kick to the left calf, keeping his opponent off balance. Then follows with a stinging left hook to the face, a strong right punch to the stomach, and finally a high reverse roundhouse kick that knocks his enemy down!
Beaten and groggy, Boo-boo/Superman forces himself to a sitting position,...and laughs.
Super Saiyan 2 Son Gohan just quietly looks on.
"Congratulations!" Boo-boo/Superman greets him. "You have proven your worth. Here...IS YOUR PRIZE!"
Boo-boo leaps out of Superman's body!
But before he could re-enter (or repossess) Son Gohan, Wonder Woman binds him with her Lasso of Truth! And Videl swiftly carries the unconscious Superman to safety.
"What...what is this?!" Boo-boo raves, as he struggles to break free.
"Something Videl noticed," Diana explains, trying to maintain control of her lasso. "For a split second, you become solid when transferring between hosts!"
"Bah! You think this toy will hold me?!"
"No,...we don't," Super Saiyan 2 Son Gohan admits. Then he brings his hands close together. A ball of light appears between them. And he says, "Ka...me...ha...ME...HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...!"
With his arms stretched forward, a blinding beam of energy erupts from Gohan's palms! Boo-boo is completely engulfed in this energy beam. His body is utterly incinerated, and the echoes of his screams fade away.
"OH MY GOD!" Superman yells, after recovering. "You killed him!"
"Yea, so?" Gohan asks, reverting to his dark haired base form.
"So?! So that's murder! Did you really have to kill him?!"
"He was a dick."
Superman is momentarily speechless.
"You can't just kill people because you think they're dicks!" Superman spouts.
"Why not?" Gohan asks. "Cell, Cell Jr, Bojack and his cronies,... I've been killing before I was even eighteen."
"And he's the nice Saiyan," Videl adds, smiling, and then hugging her lover's arm.
"How are you not in juvie?!" Superman asks.
"What is your deal?" Gohan asks him. "You killed Zod-"
"Hey! That was a one time thing!"
"You killed him twice. The first time, you depowered him, Ursa, and Non, and left them to die in the North Pole."
"Y-y-you don't know that they died! They could have been adopted by Eskimos! I bet they're all living happily in igloos there!"
"What about Nuclear Man?" Videl asks. "You dropped him into the core of a nuclear power plant-"
"Th-that doesn't count. H-he wasn't even really a living being-"
"He had a crush on that Lacy woman. He had feelings. He was sentient."
"Yea, b-but..but... HE WAS A DICK!"
#
Later, Gohan and Videl bow before Superman and Wonder Woman to once again apologize, and also thank them for their help.
Superman and Wonder Woman bow also. Then they hold hands, and fly away, that they may return to more familiar skies.
