But, he's cool, me and my ex- "best-friend" got in a huge fight. And he's making my life a living {Hey, get on with the story!} Right! Moving on... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hiding the Truth
Old Rivalry Renewed
The look of suffering, and misery in the icy, yet deep blue eyes of the saiyan prince, was nearly unendurable for Krystal, "Vegeta...it's going to be okay."
Lee snarled under his breath, cursing at his quarry, "You weak-minded fool, you'll pay for this." His ki flared all around his now-sweating body.
Calis, wanting to tend to his friend, tore himself from him and reluctantly joined Lee, knowing he must dispose of this hindrance, "You...will...PAY!" Ki consumed his body as well, only his ki was gold, and electricity flowed over him, crackling.
Niten smirked at the two warriors, "I must admit, you are brave and powerful as well. But, you cannot defeat me."
"Damn..." Vegeta uttered, spitting blood as the word emitted from his lips.
Krystal glanced down at him, concerned, "Please, are you okay?"
He didn't respond, but looked at her, his eyes wide with pain. "Ughh..." He moaned slightly at his agony, accompanied with the horrifying anguish.
She saw the look in his eyes, and heard his desperate moan, "I want to help, please hold on." She could feel tears welling in her eyes.
Enjeru glanced at her, longing to help further, "Krystal, are..." She realized that the saiyan girl was not the one whom she should be asking that question to. She glanced down at the whimpering saiyan prince.
Honno growled, from the balcony, which she stood, "Hey! I'm going to help you idiots fight!"
Hikaru growled as well, glancing at Honno, "What are you talking about?!"
"I said I was gonna help, you idiot, what do you think I was talking about?!" She hissed at the stupid saiyan girl who stood before her, "And I'll do a hell of a lot better than you will!"
Hikaru clenched her fists tightly, "You are challenging me! How dare you?!"
Kakarott pushed them both to the side, concerned with his friend, "Now is not the time for you crazy girls to be fighting! Go fight with each other a kill that creep!"
"For once, Kakarott speaks some wisdom." Chris glanced at Vegeta, knowing he could do more in soothing him than in fighting. "You three go fight, I'll help tend to Vegeta." He leaped off the balcony and landed in a crouching position near Krystal and Enjeru.
Calis felt sweat drip from his body, "You think you can beat us both, then why don't you try it?!" He jumped at Niten, foot outstretched.
Niten gave him nothing but a smirk and dodged swiftly, "I suppose you idiots expect me to fight at my full now."
Damian snarled at Niten, "Enough toying, just finish them!"
Niten glared at his partner, "You shut up, or you'll share a similar fate!"
The younger man looked away in disgust, "I'd like to see you try," he muttered.
Niten didn't hear his words and jerked back around, just in time to see Lee's foot crash into his face, he redeemed enough composure to grab the saiyan and throw him back into the one who was just braking.
Honno leapt off the balcony, not uttering another word to Hikaru and landed on the ground before Niten, her eyes glowing an orange-red color, Niten got the same color aura around him and was flung backwards. "Damn onna!" He stood up, feeling a sensation of heat.
Calis glanced back at Vegeta, "Is he okay?"
Krystal looked up, reaching Calis' light blue eyes, filled currently with concern, "He'll...be fine, I'm sure." She forced a weak smile onto her lips, "I mean...think about who we're dealing with."
Lee growled furiously, and reached to his black belt, since he was wearing his navy blue police officer uniform, that he always wore when fighting and pulled a black gun, "Time to die!"
Max sighed, "Fighting is always so tense..." She took a deep breath, taking this last bit of peace he'd get for awhile and closed his eyes, "But, what can I say..." A smirk lengthened across his face, "Let's get it on!" He felt his ki engulf his body, eager to fight.
Hikaru stared, dazed, at Honno, "You can fight?"
"Damn right I can fight!" She laughed smugly at her unintended rhyme.
Hikaru snarled, "That doesn't make you any better than me!" She got into a fighting stance, "Now, allow me to show you how to kick ass!" She launched at Niten, who jumped to the side and blasted the back of her. She hit the wall and winced in pain.
"Oh, very nice." Honno rolled her eyes, obviously unimpressed. She held out her hand and blasted, hitting Niten and sending him backwards.
"You're being beaten by a girl!!" Damian almost spat at his comrade, "What are you doing in there?"
"I'm not being beaten," an agitated Niten gave as a response.
Honno smirked, "Oh?"
Calis growled, "You...you..." The realization of what Niten had done to the prince of his own race came flooding in, along with rage, "I'LL KILL YOU!"
Niten jerked to see Calis's foot hit his face, head on, "Gah! Ow..." He saw Calis's anger, "So...you do have some spunk left."
Vegeta weakly opened one eyes again, "Damn it...I-I...can't let...them..." He struggled to get up, then felt a gentle push on his back, he moaned.
Krystal looked at him sympathetically, "Vegeta, I can't let you...get up."
Vegeta glanced at her, and wailed faintly, then closed his eyes again, "...why?"
Krystal looked slightly shocked at the prince, "...uh..." All she could do was sputter, 'why?' 'why?' She couldn't believe he had asked that question.
Niten flipped up and kicked Calis across the face, following it with a backhand, that resulted in Honno flying across the room, "Hmph! That's enough fooling around!"
Damian watched, he gave no response, but still continued to gaze upon the fight intently. Kakarott growled and jumped at Niten, only to have his foot caught and thrown into Lee, knocking both saiyans back into another wall, "I'm sick of these games, time to finish this."
Chris glanced meekly at them, "Oh...God..."
"What?" Krystal glanced awkwardly at him, "Do they have a chance?"
He looked away in disgust, "You don't want an answer to that question."
Jason lunged at Niten, in a rather comical matter, but he was kicked to the side as well, "It's time to experience what your prince over there experienced so long ago." He concentrated and began to tap into his true power source.
Calis punched, seemingly right through him, "What?"
Niten got a hold of his ankle and twisted it, throwing him once again, into Hikaru, who was still failing to regain her footing, "I told you...no more games."
Calis spit up some blood and got up, smirking, "I can appreciate that!" He powered up again and jerked around, "I'll still kill you!"
"No..." Niten kicked him across the face and caused him to go skidding across the floor.
Honno fired a concentrated fire-ball at her foe, but he held out his hand and it stopped, then launched immediately back at her, her eyes widened and she got flung backwards by her own attack. "Damn, how?!"
Lee held out his gun and fired two shots, they looked like normal bullet shots, but Niten glanced down and noted that the bullet had grazed his arm, he just smirked, "Well, then..."
Lee ducked under a blast, which hit Kakarott, stumbling to his feet, and knocked him out, "Damn it all to hell!" He shook his head and punched at Niten, his fist was caught and he got slung across the room, skidding on his back.
Calis jumped at Niten, trying to hit him, but again, failed and got hit in the head, causing him to fall to the ground, unconscious, "Uhh..." He hit the floor, and Niten kicked him away, causing him to stop at the feet of his partner, Damian.
Damian ignored him, "Finally..."
Lee used the force of his feet to jump up, he then jumped into the air and kicked Niten in the head, Niten stumbled backwards, annoyed at his surprise hit and punched Lee square in the face and caused him to skid, or somersault to the other side of the room, "Ow...ch..." He winced.
Honno jumped at Damian, surprised him and knocking him forward, "Low...so low." Damian jerked around and caught her second attack, twisted her wrist and kicked her in the face, sending her into the nearby wall, that Kakarott lied upon.
Hikaru twitched on the floor, but remained down, "I'm...useless here."
Honno slowly got to her feet, only to meet Damian's blast. He did not enjoy being hit dishonorably, she hit the floor, unconscious as well, "Damn..." That's all she could sputter before falling into darkness.
Enjeru gasped slightly, "Honno!"
Chris growled, "Unfortunately, I may have to step in!"
Lee slowly got to his feet and dodged an incoming blast, he wiped some falling blood from the corner of his mouth and charged at Niten once more, "I won't give up!"
Niten smirked, "I must give you points for persistence, but then again..." He nailed his opponent in the face, causing him to stagger backwards, "What does that really ever get you?" He brought his foot around and kicked the saiyan in the side of the head.
Lee skidded across the room again, moaning this time, "Shit..." He closed his eyes tightly for a moment, "How can I...win?" He spit up some blood again, but got back on his feet. "I will defeat you!" His brown bangs covered his right eye, sweat ringing from his body and face, his hair soaked in sweat a blood. A newly acquired scar crossed his left eye. He panted a few times, before charging again.
Niten held out his hand and blocked and dodged with complete ease, "You are pathetic." He picked Lee up by the hair and tossed him. Lee remained in the air, grunting slightly in pain and Niten jumped into the air and kicked him in the side, sending him sprawling.
Jason leaped up, "Ha-ha! Quarry! We are not finished here!"
"Where is Alex?" Krystal desperately questioned.
Jason made a face, "It's always Alex, Alex, Alex, don't you people think 'I' can do anything?"
"Not really." Chris sighed in exasperation.
Jason growled, "Hey! I'm taking that as a personal insult, now watch me!" He powered up and flew at Niten again, just to be backhanded before ever reaching him. "Um, owie..."
Chris growled, "No one, can beat him. We need help."
Lee shook his head and fired a few blasts at Niten, only to have them deflected, and even be hit with the final one, "G-gah..." He snarled, but caught himself on his arm and jerked himself back up, then fired shots from his gun five times.
Niten could only dodge three shots, but was also only hit in the ankle and shoulder, "That gun of yours is fast."
"Gee, thanks." Lee muttered in a nasty, mocking, sarcastic voice.
"No problem." Niten noted the sarcasm, but knew he had the complete upper- hand, so gave it no response. He launched at him again and kicked Lee in the face, knocking him back into the wall, but the saiyan refused to be defeated.
"You saiyans are very brave, but someone needs to teach you, when you CAN'T WIN!" He began punching Lee repeatedly in he stomach.
Lee began to spit up blood, but continuously refused to give in, though they seemed to be becoming more and more painful with every blow, "Fuck you, bastard."
Niten laughed and stopped punching, "No need for such harsh language, pathetic saiyan. All you can do is insult when your about to be killed."
Lee held his gun in his right hand, "You jerk, I will kill you, if it is the last thing I do."
Niten smirked, "Oh, and that gun is becoming an increasing annoyance, he slammed his left hand into Lee's wrist, causing him to, not only drop the gun, but fling it and cry out in pain as well. He then picked Lee up and threw him. "Well, it's been fun guys, but I mutt say adeui and goodbye, I must be going." He smirked, "Come on, Damian." He ran off.
"What?!" Lee, totally shocked, "What are you running from?!"
Niten smirked, "Boredom!" He ran down the hall, "Don't worry, my nice little friend will keep you company."
"Oh...great." Chris glanced to the side, as a young man, around twenty-five at most entered. "Why did he run off like that, though?"
Kate's voice suddenly came over the intercom, kind of loud, actually, "Guys! You have to get out of here! This ship is going to self destruct in twenty minutes!"
"What?!" Lee growled, forcing himself up again, "So that's why he ran?!"
Chris snarled, "We have got to finish this guy quick!"
"Heh, I must say, your predecessors had much more respect." He smirked, you could almost see his ribs, he looked nimble, he was skinny, he had black outlining around his eyes and black hair, very thin in this crazy style, spikes flying everywhere. He had gray eyes, his bangs hung in the front of his face, his hair being pretty short. He was wearing a sleeveless white t- shirt and black jeans. He was wearing a silver belt, it looked light. His skin was tan, like Rikasan's. He had a scar going across his right cheek, and a tattoo, which was odd, on his right upper arm.
"Are you just going to throw your life away?!" Enjeru snarled, knowing they had to get out of there now.
"Sure, why not?"
Vegeta growled, "....you."
The man glanced down at the injured teenager, his gray eyes widened, but at the same time filled with despise, "You!! Vegeta!? The prince of the saiyan race, I can't believe you're really still alive!"
A smirk crossed Vegeta's pale lips, and he stood, his arms hanging limply at his sides, his head down, he was panting. But, he was still smirking, his ebony bangs covered his blue eyes, as he faced the ground, he spoke, blood dripping from his body, "Yes, it's me." His voice seemed to change in that instant, it had a angry, almost evil ring to it.
The man clenched his fists, as blood ran down his wrists, his fingernails slicing into his now sweaty palms, "Uhh..." He seemed speechless.
"Vegeta?" Krystal almost spat that name out.
The prince looked up, his blue eyes determined, they were wide, "Yes, and I do believe we have some unfinished business to take care of, don't you?" Electricity crackled around his apparently worn-out body.
"Yes, we DO!" He gritted his teeth, as his eyes widened further, he was obviously preparing to fight the prince.
"You can't fight, not like this!"
Vegeta didn't look back to face her, he kept his eyes focused on his foe, "Do not tell me what I can and cannot do, girl, you haven't seen the FULL EXTENT OF MY POWER!!" Electricity crackled furiously around Vegeta, as his hair again changed to gold and his eyes got that icy glow to them.
Enjeru glanced at Krystal, "Do you believe him."
"You haven't seen him...how he fights. He does it like no saiyan or any other being I have ever seen, with a passion I've never seen."
Vegeta outstretched his arm and opened his hand, a blue light slowly formed the shape of his katana, as it slowly became his katana. "Now, let's finish this." His pain and injuries seemed to have dissipated. "Saku-san!"
The man's eyes fixed on Vegeta, "At long last..." He flew at Vegeta who dodged easily and kicked him in the back.
"You're fast, but you never were and still aren't fast enough." A smirk reappeared on Vegeta's face as he blasted Saku into a wall.
"Ow...we'll see about that, prince!" He seemed to his the word prince as he slowly got to his feet.
Saku ran full on at Vegeta, punching him and causing him to skid along on his back, Vegeta put his feet up in the air as the young man ran at him and kicked Saku away from him, and got to his feet all in one smooth motion. "Hmph."
Lee weakly watched the fight, "Niten!" He forced himself up, following in the path of Niten. "I'll get that bastard!"
Saku knew deep in his heart he couldn't beat this warrior, but that had not stopped him in the past. "You think...I'm going to back down, right?"
"No."
Saku snarled at Vegeta, "You're mocking me!" He clenched his fists again, "No one mocks me and lives to tell about it!!" His ki flared, and his tail showed itself, "I'll show you! Even if I can't beat you, you'll die along with this ship."
"I'll beat you and get off this ship all in good time." Vegeta smirked, clearly showing he had no fears of dying, or having any of his friends die.
Saku leapt into the air and came down where Vegeta had been a Nanto-second before, "What? How does he do that?!"
Vegeta reappeared and kicked his target back into the wall where he was before, "So...you know I can move."
Saku spit some blood on to the silvery floor, "Pfah...Move, right..." He muttered, "You can do a hell of a lot more than move."
"No need to boost my ego, overconfidence is the source of defeat, and I'm on the edge of it." He smirked slowly at a deep gash appeared on Saku's chest, extending left to right fully.
Saku growled, "You think you're great! But, you have to have a weakness under all that power!"
"Perhaps, but can you find it?" He disappeared and reappeared behind Saku, in a crouching position, with his katana drawn, in a slashing position. As if he had just slashed.
Saku's eyes widened in horror, as pain throbbed throughout his body as all the gashed and cuts and scars slowly made themselves apparent covering his body. "Damn you! How do you do it?! You were...you were...HURT?!"
Vegeta smirked, "No one completely understands me." His smirk slowly widened, "Except me."
"Hell yeah!" Chris shook his head, "He's got that right! How...I know he's strong, but...th-the power he's displaying now...it's incomparable!"
Enjeru nodded meekly, but Krystal was smirking, "In this form, he knows his complete power...he knows his next to invulnerable!"
"Not as sweet." Enjeru got a dreamy look on her face, "He's probably more along the lines of hot, now." She looked like a puppy in love.
Krystal and Chris both blinked, confused, sweat-dropping all the while, with awkward looks on their faces, "R-I-ight..." Krystal smiled, nervously.
Chris nodded, with a obviously fake smile on his face, "Okay, whatever you say." His voice seemed to squeak.
Vegeta held out his finger and smirked, as a blue light flickered. Saku jumped aside, but rolled on the ground, yelping in pain, as a blue flash seemed to collide with his ankle, "Damn! You're too fast!"
"Too fast?" Vegeta cocked his eyebrow. "Right."
Saku growled, moaning, "Vegeta-san...prince of the saiyans..." He almost smiled, "Legendary warrior." He grinned slyly, "Goddamn you, Vegeta..."
Vegeta knew he was close to unconsciousness, "I salute you, Saku..." He did the symbol for a salute. He actually smiled, and turned to walk away.
Saku saluted as well, "Thanks..." His eyes slowly closed, as he fell into unconsciousness completely.
Vegeta glanced at Krystal, "Krystal! Come on! We have to get out of here!" He saw that most of his friends were unconscious, and he knew he couldn't maintain this form for much longer, and when he went back to his other form. He was weak and he knew it, he remembered that pain he was feeling.
"What can we do, Vegeta?" She growled, "How can we get them all out of here?"
Vegeta closed his eyes and concentrated, "Sorry, guys..." A bolt of blue lightening flickered before the prince.
Calis's eyes jerked open, and he shook his head slightly, "What?!" The first thing that struck him, was the power the young warrior was emitting. "Damn, Vegeta!" He got up quickly, "What happened?"
"I'll explain later, we have to get off this ship in fi--"
"Self destruct in fifteen minutes." A computerized voice spoke over the speaker.
Calis made a face, "Le'me, you were about to say 'fifteen minutes before this shi blows up'?"
"Gee...you're good." Vegeta said in a very sarcastic voice, which cancelled out the whole fact that he said, 'gee.'
Calis nodded, and looked around, realizing everybody was beginning to get up, Kakarott blinked, "Wow, I think I just got run over by the titanic."
Vegeta glanced at him, "How do you know what that is?"
"No idea!"
Honno leapt up, "Come on! We have to go!"
"Wow, you sure grasp things fast, woman!" Calis crossed his arms and looked at the red-haired girl.
"What can I say, I'm good." She grinned and motioned for the rest of them to come on, that the prince of their race was hollering to them from down the hall, with Chris right next to him.
Enjeru clung to Honno, who quickly removed her, "I'm so glad you're OKAY!" A big grin was on her face, "And you should have seen Veggie-chan! He was awesome!"
"What else is new?" she glanced down the silvery hall to Vegeta, "I've come to expect it, from that prince."
Krystal smirked, "There's nothing else to expect from him. He's Vegeta." She smiled and ran off down the hall, catching up to Vegeta.
Calis grabbed Honno and dragged her, "Come ON!"
Honno wanted to yell, but she laughed, "Calis!" The two ran off down the hall as well, followed closely by Enjeru and Kakarott. Max slowly stumbled after them who had been dazed earlier in the fight, "G-uuys...waaait up."
Hikaru blinked, coming around, "Calis! Wait for me!!" She desperately ran after the rest of them.
Jason pranced down the hall after them, not even being noticed, "Do-de-do."
-------------------------
"Hey! Where do you think you're going?!"
Niten jerked around to see the young saiyan had followed him, "It's you! I was going to let you escape with your life, but you just didn't wanna live, did you?"
"Wrong, I didn't wanna let you live." Lee was panting, worn down from running after him, "I was finished with you, yet!"
"Ah, but I was finished with you." He shot a beam, which knocked Lee backwards, "But, if you insist...I'll just finish YOU, now."
Lee winced as he kind of skidded along the blue, cold, slick floors, leading down the hallway, "Shit..."
Damian growled and watched, "We don't have all day, Niten!"
Niten growled at his partner, "You beginning to unnerve me, Damian, do you enjoy living or not?" He hissed at him.
Damian backed down, but muttered, cursing under his breath, "Whatever..."
Lee smirked, "Y-you can't even get along with your own partner, that just shows how sorry you are!"
Damian glanced at Niten, "The prince..."
"What?!" Niten looked worried, "His...power..."
"I can feel it..." Niten looked toward Lee again, "We can't afford to be dealing with you!" He blasted a hole right through the young teenager's chest, and Lee spit out blood as he bounced along the ground. He moaned, but slowly closed his eyes, and remained trembling.
Niten outstretched his hands, and laughed evilly at his victory, "You're still alive?"
"NITEN!" The terror in his eyes was apparent as he darted down the hallway.
Niten looked up, "Well, well...Vegeta..."

Lee snarled under his breath, cursing at his quarry, "You weak-minded fool, you'll pay for this." His ki flared all around his now-sweating body.
Calis, wanting to tend to his friend, tore himself from him and reluctantly joined Lee, knowing he must dispose of this hindrance, "You...will...PAY!" Ki consumed his body as well, only his ki was gold, and electricity flowed over him, crackling.
Niten smirked at the two warriors, "I must admit, you are brave and powerful as well. But, you cannot defeat me."
"Damn..." Vegeta uttered, spitting blood as the word emitted from his lips.
Krystal glanced down at him, concerned, "Please, are you okay?"
He didn't respond, but looked at her, his eyes wide with pain. "Ughh..." He moaned slightly at his agony, accompanied with the horrifying anguish.
She saw the look in his eyes, and heard his desperate moan, "I want to help, please hold on." She could feel tears welling in her eyes.
Enjeru glanced at her, longing to help further, "Krystal, are..." She realized that the saiyan girl was not the one whom she should be asking that question to. She glanced down at the whimpering saiyan prince.
Honno growled, from the balcony, which she stood, "Hey! I'm going to help you idiots fight!"
Hikaru growled as well, glancing at Honno, "What are you talking about?!"
"I said I was gonna help, you idiot, what do you think I was talking about?!" She hissed at the stupid saiyan girl who stood before her, "And I'll do a hell of a lot better than you will!"

Honno leapt off the balcony, not uttering another word to Hikaru and landed on the ground before Niten, her eyes glowing an orange-red color, Niten got the same color aura around him and was flung backwards. "Damn onna!" He stood up, feeling a sensation of heat.
Calis glanced back at Vegeta, "Is he okay?"
Krystal looked up, reaching Calis' light blue eyes, filled currently with concern, "He'll...be fine, I'm sure." She forced a weak smile onto her lips, "I mean...think about who we're dealing with."
Lee growled furiously, and reached to his black belt, since he was wearing his navy blue police officer uniform, that he always wore when fighting and pulled a black gun, "Time to die!"
Max sighed, "Fighting is always so tense..." She took a deep breath, taking this last bit of peace he'd get for awhile and closed his eyes, "But, what can I say..." A smirk lengthened across his face, "Let's get it on!" He felt his ki engulf his body, eager to fight.

"Oh, very nice." Honno rolled her eyes, obviously unimpressed. She held out her hand and blasted, hitting Niten and sending him backwards.
"You're being beaten by a girl!!" Damian almost spat at his comrade, "What are you doing in there?"
"I'm not being beaten," an agitated Niten gave as a response.
Honno smirked, "Oh?"
Calis growled, "You...you..." The realization of what Niten had done to the prince of his own race came flooding in, along with rage, "I'LL KILL YOU!"
Niten jerked to see Calis's foot hit his face, head on, "Gah! Ow..." He saw Calis's anger, "So...you do have some spunk left."
Vegeta weakly opened one eyes again, "Damn it...I-I...can't let...them..." He struggled to get up, then felt a gentle push on his back, he moaned.
Krystal looked at him sympathetically, "Vegeta, I can't let you...get up."
Vegeta glanced at her, and wailed faintly, then closed his eyes again, "...why?"
Krystal looked slightly shocked at the prince, "...uh..." All she could do was sputter, 'why?' 'why?' She couldn't believe he had asked that question.
Niten flipped up and kicked Calis across the face, following it with a backhand, that resulted in Honno flying across the room, "Hmph! That's enough fooling around!"
Damian watched, he gave no response, but still continued to gaze upon the fight intently. Kakarott growled and jumped at Niten, only to have his foot caught and thrown into Lee, knocking both saiyans back into another wall, "I'm sick of these games, time to finish this."

Calis punched, seemingly right through him, "What?"
Niten got a hold of his ankle and twisted it, throwing him once again, into Hikaru, who was still failing to regain her footing, "I told you...no more games."
Calis spit up some blood and got up, smirking, "I can appreciate that!" He powered up again and jerked around, "I'll still kill you!"
"No..." Niten kicked him across the face and caused him to go skidding across the floor.
Honno fired a concentrated fire-ball at her foe, but he held out his hand and it stopped, then launched immediately back at her, her eyes widened and she got flung backwards by her own attack. "Damn, how?!"
Lee held out his gun and fired two shots, they looked like normal bullet shots, but Niten glanced down and noted that the bullet had grazed his arm, he just smirked, "Well, then..."
Lee ducked under a blast, which hit Kakarott, stumbling to his feet, and knocked him out, "Damn it all to hell!" He shook his head and punched at Niten, his fist was caught and he got slung across the room, skidding on his back.
Calis jumped at Niten, trying to hit him, but again, failed and got hit in the head, causing him to fall to the ground, unconscious, "Uhh..." He hit the floor, and Niten kicked him away, causing him to stop at the feet of his partner, Damian.
Damian ignored him, "Finally..."
Lee used the force of his feet to jump up, he then jumped into the air and kicked Niten in the head, Niten stumbled backwards, annoyed at his surprise hit and punched Lee square in the face and caused him to skid, or somersault to the other side of the room, "Ow...ch..." He winced.
Honno jumped at Damian, surprised him and knocking him forward, "Low...so low." Damian jerked around and caught her second attack, twisted her wrist and kicked her in the face, sending her into the nearby wall, that Kakarott lied upon.
Hikaru twitched on the floor, but remained down, "I'm...useless here."
Honno slowly got to her feet, only to meet Damian's blast. He did not enjoy being hit dishonorably, she hit the floor, unconscious as well, "Damn..." That's all she could sputter before falling into darkness.
Enjeru gasped slightly, "Honno!"
Chris growled, "Unfortunately, I may have to step in!"
Lee slowly got to his feet and dodged an incoming blast, he wiped some falling blood from the corner of his mouth and charged at Niten once more, "I won't give up!"
Niten smirked, "I must give you points for persistence, but then again..." He nailed his opponent in the face, causing him to stagger backwards, "What does that really ever get you?" He brought his foot around and kicked the saiyan in the side of the head.
Lee skidded across the room again, moaning this time, "Shit..." He closed his eyes tightly for a moment, "How can I...win?" He spit up some blood again, but got back on his feet. "I will defeat you!" His brown bangs covered his right eye, sweat ringing from his body and face, his hair soaked in sweat a blood. A newly acquired scar crossed his left eye. He panted a few times, before charging again.
Niten held out his hand and blocked and dodged with complete ease, "You are pathetic." He picked Lee up by the hair and tossed him. Lee remained in the air, grunting slightly in pain and Niten jumped into the air and kicked him in the side, sending him sprawling.
Jason leaped up, "Ha-ha! Quarry! We are not finished here!"
"Where is Alex?" Krystal desperately questioned.
Jason made a face, "It's always Alex, Alex, Alex, don't you people think 'I' can do anything?"
"Not really." Chris sighed in exasperation.
Jason growled, "Hey! I'm taking that as a personal insult, now watch me!" He powered up and flew at Niten again, just to be backhanded before ever reaching him. "Um, owie..."
Chris growled, "No one, can beat him. We need help."
Lee shook his head and fired a few blasts at Niten, only to have them deflected, and even be hit with the final one, "G-gah..." He snarled, but caught himself on his arm and jerked himself back up, then fired shots from his gun five times.
Niten could only dodge three shots, but was also only hit in the ankle and shoulder, "That gun of yours is fast."
"Gee, thanks." Lee muttered in a nasty, mocking, sarcastic voice.
"No problem." Niten noted the sarcasm, but knew he had the complete upper- hand, so gave it no response. He launched at him again and kicked Lee in the face, knocking him back into the wall, but the saiyan refused to be defeated.
"You saiyans are very brave, but someone needs to teach you, when you CAN'T WIN!" He began punching Lee repeatedly in he stomach.
Lee began to spit up blood, but continuously refused to give in, though they seemed to be becoming more and more painful with every blow, "Fuck you, bastard."
Niten laughed and stopped punching, "No need for such harsh language, pathetic saiyan. All you can do is insult when your about to be killed."
Lee held his gun in his right hand, "You jerk, I will kill you, if it is the last thing I do."
Niten smirked, "Oh, and that gun is becoming an increasing annoyance, he slammed his left hand into Lee's wrist, causing him to, not only drop the gun, but fling it and cry out in pain as well. He then picked Lee up and threw him. "Well, it's been fun guys, but I mutt say adeui and goodbye, I must be going." He smirked, "Come on, Damian." He ran off.
"What?!" Lee, totally shocked, "What are you running from?!"
Niten smirked, "Boredom!" He ran down the hall, "Don't worry, my nice little friend will keep you company."
"Oh...great." Chris glanced to the side, as a young man, around twenty-five at most entered. "Why did he run off like that, though?"
Kate's voice suddenly came over the intercom, kind of loud, actually, "Guys! You have to get out of here! This ship is going to self destruct in twenty minutes!"
"What?!" Lee growled, forcing himself up again, "So that's why he ran?!"
Chris snarled, "We have got to finish this guy quick!"
"Heh, I must say, your predecessors had much more respect." He smirked, you could almost see his ribs, he looked nimble, he was skinny, he had black outlining around his eyes and black hair, very thin in this crazy style, spikes flying everywhere. He had gray eyes, his bangs hung in the front of his face, his hair being pretty short. He was wearing a sleeveless white t- shirt and black jeans. He was wearing a silver belt, it looked light. His skin was tan, like Rikasan's. He had a scar going across his right cheek, and a tattoo, which was odd, on his right upper arm.
"Are you just going to throw your life away?!" Enjeru snarled, knowing they had to get out of there now.
"Sure, why not?"
Vegeta growled, "....you."
The man glanced down at the injured teenager, his gray eyes widened, but at the same time filled with despise, "You!! Vegeta!? The prince of the saiyan race, I can't believe you're really still alive!"
A smirk crossed Vegeta's pale lips, and he stood, his arms hanging limply at his sides, his head down, he was panting. But, he was still smirking, his ebony bangs covered his blue eyes, as he faced the ground, he spoke, blood dripping from his body, "Yes, it's me." His voice seemed to change in that instant, it had a angry, almost evil ring to it.
The man clenched his fists, as blood ran down his wrists, his fingernails slicing into his now sweaty palms, "Uhh..." He seemed speechless.
"Vegeta?" Krystal almost spat that name out.
The prince looked up, his blue eyes determined, they were wide, "Yes, and I do believe we have some unfinished business to take care of, don't you?" Electricity crackled around his apparently worn-out body.
"Yes, we DO!" He gritted his teeth, as his eyes widened further, he was obviously preparing to fight the prince.
"You can't fight, not like this!"
Vegeta didn't look back to face her, he kept his eyes focused on his foe, "Do not tell me what I can and cannot do, girl, you haven't seen the FULL EXTENT OF MY POWER!!" Electricity crackled furiously around Vegeta, as his hair again changed to gold and his eyes got that icy glow to them.
Enjeru glanced at Krystal, "Do you believe him."
"You haven't seen him...how he fights. He does it like no saiyan or any other being I have ever seen, with a passion I've never seen."
Vegeta outstretched his arm and opened his hand, a blue light slowly formed the shape of his katana, as it slowly became his katana. "Now, let's finish this." His pain and injuries seemed to have dissipated. "Saku-san!"
The man's eyes fixed on Vegeta, "At long last..." He flew at Vegeta who dodged easily and kicked him in the back.
"You're fast, but you never were and still aren't fast enough." A smirk reappeared on Vegeta's face as he blasted Saku into a wall.
"Ow...we'll see about that, prince!" He seemed to his the word prince as he slowly got to his feet.
Saku ran full on at Vegeta, punching him and causing him to skid along on his back, Vegeta put his feet up in the air as the young man ran at him and kicked Saku away from him, and got to his feet all in one smooth motion. "Hmph."
Lee weakly watched the fight, "Niten!" He forced himself up, following in the path of Niten. "I'll get that bastard!"
Saku knew deep in his heart he couldn't beat this warrior, but that had not stopped him in the past. "You think...I'm going to back down, right?"
"No."
Saku snarled at Vegeta, "You're mocking me!" He clenched his fists again, "No one mocks me and lives to tell about it!!" His ki flared, and his tail showed itself, "I'll show you! Even if I can't beat you, you'll die along with this ship."
"I'll beat you and get off this ship all in good time." Vegeta smirked, clearly showing he had no fears of dying, or having any of his friends die.
Saku leapt into the air and came down where Vegeta had been a Nanto-second before, "What? How does he do that?!"
Vegeta reappeared and kicked his target back into the wall where he was before, "So...you know I can move."
Saku spit some blood on to the silvery floor, "Pfah...Move, right..." He muttered, "You can do a hell of a lot more than move."
"No need to boost my ego, overconfidence is the source of defeat, and I'm on the edge of it." He smirked slowly at a deep gash appeared on Saku's chest, extending left to right fully.
Saku growled, "You think you're great! But, you have to have a weakness under all that power!"
"Perhaps, but can you find it?" He disappeared and reappeared behind Saku, in a crouching position, with his katana drawn, in a slashing position. As if he had just slashed.
Saku's eyes widened in horror, as pain throbbed throughout his body as all the gashed and cuts and scars slowly made themselves apparent covering his body. "Damn you! How do you do it?! You were...you were...HURT?!"
Vegeta smirked, "No one completely understands me." His smirk slowly widened, "Except me."
"Hell yeah!" Chris shook his head, "He's got that right! How...I know he's strong, but...th-the power he's displaying now...it's incomparable!"
Enjeru nodded meekly, but Krystal was smirking, "In this form, he knows his complete power...he knows his next to invulnerable!"
"Not as sweet." Enjeru got a dreamy look on her face, "He's probably more along the lines of hot, now." She looked like a puppy in love.
Krystal and Chris both blinked, confused, sweat-dropping all the while, with awkward looks on their faces, "R-I-ight..." Krystal smiled, nervously.
Chris nodded, with a obviously fake smile on his face, "Okay, whatever you say." His voice seemed to squeak.
Vegeta held out his finger and smirked, as a blue light flickered. Saku jumped aside, but rolled on the ground, yelping in pain, as a blue flash seemed to collide with his ankle, "Damn! You're too fast!"
"Too fast?" Vegeta cocked his eyebrow. "Right."
Saku growled, moaning, "Vegeta-san...prince of the saiyans..." He almost smiled, "Legendary warrior." He grinned slyly, "Goddamn you, Vegeta..."
Vegeta knew he was close to unconsciousness, "I salute you, Saku..." He did the symbol for a salute. He actually smiled, and turned to walk away.
Saku saluted as well, "Thanks..." His eyes slowly closed, as he fell into unconsciousness completely.
Vegeta glanced at Krystal, "Krystal! Come on! We have to get out of here!" He saw that most of his friends were unconscious, and he knew he couldn't maintain this form for much longer, and when he went back to his other form. He was weak and he knew it, he remembered that pain he was feeling.
"What can we do, Vegeta?" She growled, "How can we get them all out of here?"
Vegeta closed his eyes and concentrated, "Sorry, guys..." A bolt of blue lightening flickered before the prince.
Calis's eyes jerked open, and he shook his head slightly, "What?!" The first thing that struck him, was the power the young warrior was emitting. "Damn, Vegeta!" He got up quickly, "What happened?"
"I'll explain later, we have to get off this ship in fi--"
"Self destruct in fifteen minutes." A computerized voice spoke over the speaker.
Calis made a face, "Le'me, you were about to say 'fifteen minutes before this shi blows up'?"
"Gee...you're good." Vegeta said in a very sarcastic voice, which cancelled out the whole fact that he said, 'gee.'
Calis nodded, and looked around, realizing everybody was beginning to get up, Kakarott blinked, "Wow, I think I just got run over by the titanic."
Vegeta glanced at him, "How do you know what that is?"
"No idea!"
Honno leapt up, "Come on! We have to go!"
"Wow, you sure grasp things fast, woman!" Calis crossed his arms and looked at the red-haired girl.
"What can I say, I'm good." She grinned and motioned for the rest of them to come on, that the prince of their race was hollering to them from down the hall, with Chris right next to him.
Enjeru clung to Honno, who quickly removed her, "I'm so glad you're OKAY!" A big grin was on her face, "And you should have seen Veggie-chan! He was awesome!"
"What else is new?" she glanced down the silvery hall to Vegeta, "I've come to expect it, from that prince."
Krystal smirked, "There's nothing else to expect from him. He's Vegeta." She smiled and ran off down the hall, catching up to Vegeta.
Calis grabbed Honno and dragged her, "Come ON!"
Honno wanted to yell, but she laughed, "Calis!" The two ran off down the hall as well, followed closely by Enjeru and Kakarott. Max slowly stumbled after them who had been dazed earlier in the fight, "G-uuys...waaait up."
Hikaru blinked, coming around, "Calis! Wait for me!!" She desperately ran after the rest of them.
Jason pranced down the hall after them, not even being noticed, "Do-de-do."
-------------------------
"Hey! Where do you think you're going?!"
Niten jerked around to see the young saiyan had followed him, "It's you! I was going to let you escape with your life, but you just didn't wanna live, did you?"
"Wrong, I didn't wanna let you live." Lee was panting, worn down from running after him, "I was finished with you, yet!"
"Ah, but I was finished with you." He shot a beam, which knocked Lee backwards, "But, if you insist...I'll just finish YOU, now."
Lee winced as he kind of skidded along the blue, cold, slick floors, leading down the hallway, "Shit..."
Damian growled and watched, "We don't have all day, Niten!"
Niten growled at his partner, "You beginning to unnerve me, Damian, do you enjoy living or not?" He hissed at him.
Damian backed down, but muttered, cursing under his breath, "Whatever..."
Lee smirked, "Y-you can't even get along with your own partner, that just shows how sorry you are!"
Damian glanced at Niten, "The prince..."
"What?!" Niten looked worried, "His...power..."
"I can feel it..." Niten looked toward Lee again, "We can't afford to be dealing with you!" He blasted a hole right through the young teenager's chest, and Lee spit out blood as he bounced along the ground. He moaned, but slowly closed his eyes, and remained trembling.
Niten outstretched his hands, and laughed evilly at his victory, "You're still alive?"
"NITEN!" The terror in his eyes was apparent as he darted down the hallway.
Niten looked up, "Well, well...Vegeta..."
