Episode 11: Gohan's Anger

Young boy: "Hey! Are you guys gonna stand around or are we gonna get down to business?"
Trunks: "So, your here for the Dragon balls is that it?"
Young boy: "What are Dragon balls? My name is Rhuu and all I want is a good fight!"
Gohan: "Huh?"

Rhuu: Ever since I came to this planet, I've been looking for good fighters. But so far, I've been having the worst luck. You guys seem like good fighters, care for a battle?"
Trunks: "This isn't a game! I'm only gonna say this once, leave now!
Rhuu: "Oh, don't wanna fight huh? Maybe this outta change your mind!"

Rhuu turns around and fires an energy blast towards city. A huge explosion erupts over the distance and the audible screams of terror by innocent bystanders can be heard as well. The shockwaves from the blast take its toll as the earth trembles beneath everyone's feet. Buildings violently shake back and forth due to the tremendous gusts of wind caused by the nearby explosion. Chaos ensues as hundreds of confused and scared citizens run for lives in complete hysteria. Our heroes look on in complete shock at the pandemonium.

Trunks: "No! You monster!"

Trunks, in his anger, transforms into a Super Saiyan.

Rhuu: "Heh, this outta be good!
Trunks: "Let's go!"

Trunks rushes up to Rhuu and starts throwing punches. Rhuu effectively dodges them and fires back with punches of his own. Trunks attempts to throw a knockout punch, but Rhuu dodges the attack. He telports behind Trunks and knocks him to the ground. He then taunts the injured Trunks.

Rhuu: "Come on, I expect more from a fellow Saiyan."

Trunks then unsheathes his sword and charges at him. He swings his sword around with lightning speed, but Rhuu has no trouble evading all of his swipes. He then thrusts his sword towards Rhuu. The boy, however, manages to grab the sword, stopping the blade mere inches from his face. Trunks, at this point, becomes extremely flustered.

Rhuu: "Heh, I see your. . . point!"

Rhuu then unleashes an energy attack, point blank at Trunks's chest. Trunks is sent flying, while Rhuu continues firing more blasts. Trunks then makes a surprising comeback and fights Rhuu one-on-one. They each exchange one devastating blow after another, with each fighter demonstrating great physical strength. The close combat between the two combatants intensifies while Gohan and the others watch, rooting for Trunks. This comes to end when Rhuu gains the upper hand by first kicking Trunks in the chest. He follows up with a quick pummeling before he knocks Trunks to the ground. Trunks falls before him and reverts back to his regular form.

Then, Krillin and Gohan jump into the fight. They both rush Rhuu, throwing numerous punches and kicks. Rhuu, however, manages to block nearly every attack thrown at him. Seeing that fighting him at once wasn't doing much, Gohan and Krillin decide to change up their fighting tactic. Gohan attacks Rhuu and fight him head on. For the most part, Gohan manages to hold out against the formidable young Saiyan. Meanwhile, Krillin tries to sneak up behind Rhuu. He plans to sneak up on Rhuu and grab his tail. This tactic, which Krillin picked up from the late Goku, should hopefully incapacitate the Saiyan. Unfortunately for Krillin; however, Rhuu catches on to what he is doing and uses his tail to smack Krillin in the face. The tail whip was so powerful that it sends Krillin flying toward the ground.

Rhuu: "Ha! Nice try, baldy!"

Gohan: "Krillin!"

Bulma and Chi-chi tend to the injured Krillin while Gohan is forced to fight Rhuu one-on-one. Unfortunately, Gohan is no match for Rhuu. He relentlessly pummels Gohan, unleashing a fury of physical attacks upon the poor boy. Chi-chi screams in horror as she watches her son being violently assaulted by his opponent. After the horrible attack, Gohan is then knocked to ground

Rhuu: "Grr come on! You guys are all a bunch of weaklings! *Sigh* I might as well end this."

Rhuu begins to power up. Massive amounts of energy start to gather into one of his fists. The energy manifests itself into the form of an electric current. While this is happening, Chi-chi, utterly distraught by this, rushes to her son's aid.

Chi-chi: "Gohan! I'm coming, honey!"
Bulma: "Wait! Chi-chi don't!"

Rhuu: "THUNDER STRIKE!"

Rhuu launches a large, blue energy beam at Gohan. With barely any time to react, Gohan launches an energy beam to counteract the blast. The two beams connect and the area lights up in spectacular flashing light. Gohan struggles to keep the beam away but he, along with his mother, is engulfed in the blast.

Krillin: "Gohan! Chi-chi!
Trunks: "No!"

Once the smoke clears, Gohan and Chi-chi are lying on the ground, unconscious. Trunks, Krillin, and Bulma are stunned by what had just happened. Trunks, enraged, attacks Rhuu, but is quickly taken down by the fierce Saiyan. Rhuu then unexpectedly unleashes a volley of energy blasts. The whole area, including the Capsule Corp. building, is swept up in the attack. Once the smoke clears, the entire place is riddled with debris. People run away in complete panic. Rhuu then sets his sights on Krillin.

Rhuu: "Well baldy, your the only one left!

Krillin: "Oh great! Why do I always get caught in these situations?!"
Rhuu: "Heh, I bet you make a pretty good punching bag!"
Krillin: "Wait! No! I bruise easily!"

Then, without warning, a large pile of rubble bursts into the air. Rhuu and Krillin, startled by this, look over and see Gohan standing, beside his unconscious mother, in a small crater.

Krillin: "Gohan!"
Rhuu: "Ehh? How are you back up so soon? That last attack should have killed you."

Gohan doesn't respond. He simply stands there, quietly boiling with anger. Rhuu walks over to confront him.

Rhuu: "If you still wanna fight, that's fine by me. Take this!"

Rhuu throws a punch, but Gohan, unexpectedly, grabs his fist. Naturally, this comes a great surprise to Rhuu. He tries to get the boy to let go, but Gohan relentlessly holds on to his fist. He holds onto his hand until. . . crack! The knuckles in Rhuu's fist begins to break.

Rhuu: "Ahh! My hand! Let go of me!"
Gohan: "I-I will. . . never forgive you!

Rhuu: "Wha-

Suddenly, a golden aura flares up around Gohan. Gohan's irises and pupils vanish, his long hair stands up and has a red tint to it, and his skin color changes to a yellow hue. He punches Rhuu in the jaw. The punch was so powerful that it sends the Saiyan hurtling into a nearby wall. The semi Super Gohan flies toward Rhuu and begins a ruthless assault. Krillin looks on in disbelief.

Krillin: "Whoa! What's going on?! What's happen to Gohan?! Has. . . Has he become a Super Saiyan?!"
