"Goten! We have to do something!"
Trunks was frantic. His father was all he had left and right now he knew that Vegeta was defenseless wile in the room of spirit and time.
"Ya I know! Why don't we fuse again? It helped before."
Goten was just as panicked. His brother was in the same boat as Vegeta and his mother was still on the lookout.
"Shoot! We wont be strong enough though! We'll be killed!" Trunks was almost panicking.
"Well then you stay here! I'll go. I just have to buy my brother time!" Goten says as he places his fingers to his head.
His bluff worked. "Goten wait! I'll fuse with you! It's all we have I guess."
The Nameks all watch in complete confusion. Fusion was not something they figured Earthlings could do. Little did they know, it was a fusion unlike any they have ever seen.
Goten and Trunks quickly take their positions. Elder Kai, knowing how strong these two will become, takes cover inside a Namekian building.
"Fu-sion-HA!" The two boys call out as they go through the motions.
At first the Namekian's watching were on the verge of blushing at the sight, but once Goten and Trunks fingers touched and the light from the two begins to blind them followed shortly by intense winds the Namekian people go from embarrassed to amazed.
To their confusion, just as soon as it began, it ended. The spot where two boys once were was was now vacant.
"What just... happened?" One of the Nameks asks in amazement.
Earth...
Armageddon was loving the fearful look he was getting from his prey. Eighteen was wondering how if at all possible she would be able to escape this monster. With her back against the wall she clenches her jaw just as tightly as her fists and makes her choice.
Eighteen lunges at Armageddon with a yell and tries to drive her fist right through his face. Armageddon does not move to avoid the attack. Eighteens fist collides with his face but nothing happens. Armageddons flesh doesn't even dent.
Eighteen pulls her fist back. "What?" She can't believe the level of power before her. With a strained scream of determination she unleashes the strongest kick she can and lands it perfectly on Armageddons neck.
Armageddon smiles.
Eighteen retracts her leg back and tries to snap it back and land the heel of her foot with his chin. This time Armageddon leans back slightly and lets Eighteen momentum carry her awkwardly past him. Eighteen reacts from the slip though and spins around till her kicking foot is able to become a propelling base.
Eighteens foot hits the door frame of the room of spirit and time and she pushes herself off. Her thoughts being that maybe she can at least outrun this thing and lead it away from the lookout.
Armageddon watches Eighteen like a cat watches a mouse. He doesn't even turn around when she blasts off away from him. He lets her have a head start. Eighteen flies as fast as she can and glances back. The lookout was already pretty far off now but she wasn't about to slow down. She looks back forward and collides face first with a powerful knee.
Armageddon finally decides it's time to catch his toy. Slowly, he levitates higher off the ground. He fazes out. Several seconds later and he fazes back in a short distance away from Eighteen. He notices her attention is behind her so he just waits for her to make it to him. When she finally turns her head back forward Armageddon shoots his knee up. Eighteens face collides with Armageddons knee.
Eighteens lower body flies forward still with the momentum from her previous flight. Armageddon palms Eighteen by the top of her head just like he had done to Krillin. He blasts off for no apparent reason and heads straight for the lookout. It doesn't take him long at all to arrive back. He pulls his arm back and flings the still stunned Eighteen down to the lookout.
Eighteen lands and skids across the floor. Her face is already turning different colors and swelling up. She cracks one eye painfully open. Armageddon was pointing a finger at her with a small crimson colored orb forming. Eighteen closes her eye and prepares herself for death. All of a sudden, a searing pain rips through her left shoulder. Eighteen screams out in pain and reopens her eye.
She didn't expect what she saw.
Armageddon was already bored with this fight. He wanted to fight the other two, the ones who had beaten him before. He thirsted for revenge for the pain they had caused him. It was time to end this fight and go drag the two from the room he watched them enter. He holds out his arm and points a finger at the helpless Eighteen.
As he gets ready to end her life something to his left appears.
"Ka-me-ha-me-ha!"
Gotenks arrives back on Earth just as Armageddon is about to kill Eighteen. Without hesitation Gotenks attacks. Armageddon takes the blast without even trying to defend himself. He fires his own attack at Eighteen.
Gotenks watches the beam as it pierces through Eighteen shoulder.
"At least he didn't kill her." He comments as he turns his attention back to the place Armageddon had been. Gotenks is surprised when he sees that Armageddon is no longer there.
"Alright creep, where are you hiding. I know your stronger then that." Gotenks says to himself.
A tap on his shoulder startles him half to death. He quickly spins around and is almost slammed by a massive fist. Luckily for Gotenks, he manages to duck just under it with wide eyes. Before Armageddon can get a chance for a second blow, Gotenks vanishes from sight. Armageddon straightens his posture and just hovers in place.
The pained whimpers from Eighteen almost seem to lull Armageddon to sleep. Gotenks suddenly reappears behind Armageddon and tries to slam his knee into the back of the monsters head. Armageddon lazily tilts his head to the side and avoids it. Gotenks winces from the missed attack but tries another by swinging his free leg at Armageddons head. Once again, Armageddon easily avoids it by tilting his head to the opposite side.
"Uh oh!" Gotenks whines.
Armageddon reaches up so fast that Gotenks cant even see his movements. Armageddon snatches Gotenks by his ankle and whips him over his shoulder. Gotenks yells as he is tossed. Armageddon holds Gotenks in front of him in such a way that the two fighters are now face to face.
Gotenks trembles now that he is so close he can feel Armageddons hot breath moistening his own face. The smell of death was making Gotenks sick to his stomach. With a last ditch effort Gotenks charges a ki blast in his right hand and with a quick jerk, he lifts his hand and blasts Armageddon point blank in the face.
The large blast engulfs Armageddons entire upper body and roars past him. Gotenks freezes in place as he waits to see the results. A cool breeze blows past taking with it the smoke surrounding Armageddons face. Gotenks, for once, is at a loss for words. Armageddon holds no sign of damage, not even a blemish.
Armageddon soon begins to rumble with internal laughter that quickly erupts into a full out hysterical roar of laughter. Gotenks is in shock, a hopeless shock. Armageddon whips his arm back and flings Gotenks down to the ground from slightly higher then the lookout. Gotenks tumbles out of control as he quickly nears the ground at crushing speeds.
Armageddon doesn't take a chance this time. He holds out his hand at Gotenks and shoots out a single thing beam at him to pierce through and kill him. By the time the beam strikes, Gotenks is already out of his sight.
Eighteen watches in pain as the final blow is delivered. Although she can't see over the edge of the lookout she knows what the results are.
"Gotenks! No!" She screams out of reflex more then anything. The scream grabs her the attention of Armageddon who turns happily back to Eighteen at the sound of her strained voice.
Armageddon descends upon Eighteen slowly, his glowing crimson eyes gazing at her. Eighteen sits up and grips her wounded shoulder. "I-I'm not... afraid... of you." She snarls.
"By the time I'm through, you will be." Armageddon sounds thrilled of the thought of torturing Eighteen.
Armageddon takes a few steps forward but Eighteen holds her ground. Suddenly a creaking sound behind her gets her attention. She doesn't need to turn around to know what it is. A small weak smirk crosses her bloody lips. Armageddon looks past her and sees the door to the room of spirit and time finally opening.
"I hope your ready to die." Eighteen says as loudly as she can.
Armageddon looks down at her without changing his expression. Soon two figures can be seen in the bright room as they exit. Gohan steps out first looking almost the same minus his gi being torn some. Vegeta exits already in his super saiyan three form. The two freeze when they notice the destruction but their blood boils the instant they see Armageddon.
"Armageddon." Gohan growls.
"Ahh, I'm glad to see your still alive. I would have thought you were dead by now." Armageddons tone comes off as being pleased.
Vegeta growls and scans the area. He soon notices Buu's lifeless body off to the side. "You bastard! You stole Buu's power also!"
Armageddon glances to the side at Buu. "Yes, his life force was, delicious. Much like the other one before."
Gohan's fists begin shaking. "You... monster." Gohan's veins begin to bulge slightly. "You've taken everything from me..."
"Hey, calm down Gohan!" Vegeta's harsh voice barley gets through. Gohan glares at Vegeta from the corner of his eyes but he listens. He turns his glare back at the grinning Armageddon.
"Alright Vegeta, he's to close. What do we do?" Gohan calmly says.
"You die! That's what!" Armageddon screams.
Before Vegeta can answer Gohan, Armageddon charges the two. He swings wildly at Gohan first with a straight right. Gohan bats the fist away and takes flight. Armageddon ignores him and whips around to try and round house kick Vegeta. The saiyan prince back flips out of the way and takes flight as well.
Gohan powers up to super saiyan and Vegeta powers up to his max. Armageddon looks up at the two in mild fascination. Gohan and Vegeta watch him cautiously.
"We have to stall him somehow!" Gohan says in mild panic.
"Damn, I didn't expect to have to fight right off the bat!" Vegeta's voice trembles.
Armageddon squats slightly and blasts off toward Vegeta. Armageddon moves so fast that Vegeta can't react fast enough. Armageddon slams his shoulder into Vegeta's gut. Vegeta's breath is knocked from him. Armageddon adds a second burst of speed and attacks Gohan.
Gohan assumes a defensive stance but Armageddon is simply to fast. Armageddon lunges at Gohan but as soon as Gohan punches at him his fist glides right through. Gohan can't even think before Armageddon swings his leg to the side and slams it into Gohan's unprotected ribs.
Gohan screams as the pain shoots through his body. He is knocked to the side but before he can try to stop, Armageddon intercepts him and back hands him down to the lookout. Gohan impacts hard and cracks the tile of the lookout.
Eighteen watches helplessly as Gohan begins to try and push himself up from the floor. Armageddon on the other hand diverts his attention back to Vegeta. Armageddon races towards the still coughing Vegeta. Vegeta looks up just as Armageddon swings with his left hand. Armageddon lands the punch and follows through with an uppercut to Vegeta's chin.
Vegeta flips back and Armageddon grabs Vegeta's ankle and whips him around several times like a lasso before releasing him. He throws Vegeta down straight at Gohan. Vegeta speeds down at the unsuspecting Gohan when suddenly someone catches him.
Vegeta cracks his eyes open and sees spiky hair. "K – Kakarot?" He mumbles disbelievingly.
…
Gotenks was speeding down so fast he couldn't even tell how close he was or how far he had fallen. He was disorientated from his tumbling descent. A powerful beam was speeding down to deal the final blow but just before the beam could slice through him, he split back apart into Trunks and Goten.
The beam may have missed by inches but that doesn't stop their fall. Before ether one of them can even realize they have separated they strike the Earth. Luckily they both hit an uninhabited forest but their impact was still harsh. They both create a crater deep enough to reach the water level.
They each float in the muddy water stunned but alive. A few moments pass before Trunks winces. His eyes flutter open and he quickly remembers the evens that lead him to his current position. He splashes around as he flails his arms around. He then takes off out of his crater in search of Goten.
Trunks finds Goten's crater without a problem and flies over to it. As soon as he looks inside of it he sees Goten already coming to. He flies in to help.
"Goten! Are you alright."
Goten looks over at Trunks wile still floating. "Um. I think so." He says weakly.
Goten joins Trunks in the air and the two quickly turn their attention back up to the lookout.
"Wow, do you feel that?" Goten asks as he stares up at the sky.
Trunks smiles. "It's my dad! And Gohan! They finished their training!"
"We should go see if they need any help." Goten was obviously exhausted but the will to see his brother was giving him strength. Trunks accepts and grabs onto Goten. In a flash the two faze out then back in on the lookout. They instantly see Armageddon backhanding Gohan and then attacking Vegeta.
"Oh no! That creep is beating them!" Goten worries.
Before anything else can be said Armageddon strikes Vegeta and flings him down. Without time to think the two boys take action. Trunks speeds over to Gohan and yanks him out of harms way wile Goten swoops in and snags Vegeta.
Vegeta mumbles something to Goten but he ignores it. He lands on the lookout gently and sets Vegeta down. Vegeta shakes his head and glares up at Armageddon.
"Goten. Can you distract Armageddon for a few seconds?" Vegeta asks.
Trunks sets Gohan down and Gohan scans the area for Vegeta. Once he sees him and sees that he's alright he looks around for Armageddon. He soon finds him and sees Armageddon watching them in annoyance.
"Trunks. Can you hold out against him for a little bit?" Gohan asks.
The two boys flinch at the odd question. "Against him? I wouldn't last one second!" The each respond.
"I need you to try, you don't have to fight him. Just keep him off of Vegeta and I for five seconds." Gohan pleads.
"You must! We only have one shot at this but we need some time!" Vegeta yells.
Goten whimpers. "I'll... try." He whines.
"I'll do my best." Trunks fearfully says.
"Good." Gohan and Vegeta say at the same time.
Armageddon gets ready to attack when suddenly Goten and Trunks transform. They blast off at Armageddon and surround him and begin verbally attacking him.
"Hey! Freak show! Whats the matter, you can't handle a couple of kids?" Trunks taunts.
Armageddon growls at the taunt when Goten joins in.
"He's to scared to attack us Trunks. He's all talk." Goten lazily says.
Armageddon turns his head and glares at Goten. "Enough of this!" He yells.
Armageddon pulls his arms to his sides and tenses up slightly. Suddenly his energy erupts into a ball and strikes the two kids. Goten and Trunks react as if being electrocuted as they yell in pain. Once Armageddon lets up the two boys fall to the floor of the lookout in smoking heaps. Though not dead, the two young fighters are all but unconscious.
Armageddon smirks and looks at the two kids in satisfaction when something gets his attention.
"Wait a second, where did the other two go?" He asks himself as he scans the lookout.
He spins around when he hears the twos voices loud and clear.
…
Gohan and Vegeta watch for a moment as their bloodlines spring into action. Gohan then hurries over to Vegeta. They give each other a nod and leap off over to the edge of the lookout. Armageddon soon attacks Goten and Trunks but Gohan and Vegeta can sense that the two are still alive.
Without another moments hesitation they begin their last ditch effort at ending the battle. They take their positions and wile Vegeta remains at his ma power, Gohan powers back down so that their power levels are now equal. They then hold their arms out at their sides.
"Fu-sion"
They chant the words in perfect symmetry but Armageddon knows this tactic all to well by now. He turns his attention to them at the first part of the chant and fires a powerful blast. Gohan and Vegeta don't stop however. They know they can't. It's now or never.
The blast will hit them before they can finish, that much is clear and Armageddon can feel his victory draw near.
Vegeta walks out in front of Gohan. "Alright Gohan. Listen closely. We haven't got much time but for what we are going to be doing, not much is required."
Gohan listens closely. "I'm ready Vegeta."
Vegeta frowns. "I'm glad you are, I'm not."
"Huh?"
"Gohan, we will need to accomplish two things wile in here. The first, I must become stronger. Equal to you in power wile you are not transformed."
Gohan stares at Vegeta in confusion. "Equal? What are you planning Vegeta?"
Vegeta's expression changes as if he had just bitten into a rotten apple. He glances off to the side. "Secondly, you will have to learn the fusion dance." Vegeta snaps his gaze back up to Gohan's now shocked face. "Gohan, you and I are going to use fusion to put that demon to rest once and for all."
Gohan shifts on his feet uncomfortably. "Fuse? With you?" Gohan thinks for a moment about what Goten and Trunks had looked like when they fused, then how the two acted. "Are you sure that's going to work Vegeta? I know when Goten and Trunks fuse it's more of a hazard then a chance at winning."
Vegeta glares at Gohan. "Listen here boy! If I thought for a second that we would act anything like those two then I would not have suggested this!"
"What makes you so sure we wont act like them though."
Vegeta reluctantly answers. "Because your father and I fuzed. When we did, we were nothing like the two children. We became a warrior of power that would rival your own, only we could control it. Unlike you."
Gohan ignores the insult. "That's right. I remember grand Kai mentioning you and my dad fuzing. Alright then, if you think we have a chance with this then I'm in."
Armageddons heart begins to beat harder as he watches his attack near Gohan and Vegeta. From out of nowhere someone leaps in front of the blast. It strikes the person and explodes moments before it can hit Gohan and Vegeta.
Eighteen watches as Goten and Trunks spring into action. Confusion is tearing away at her mind. Why would Gohan and Vegeta, the two strongest living being left stand by and watch as their own flesh and blood charge head on with suicide? Then she sees Gohan and Vegeta leap to the side and take the stance for fusion. Her confusion now becomes hope, it's enough to make her all but forget about her own wounds till she sees Armageddon notice the two and firing a blast at Vegeta and Gohan.
Putting all fear and doubt aside and ignoring her own wounds completely Eighteen leaps in front of the blast and takes it head on. The blast explodes and vaporizes her before she can even make a sound. Someone who was once intended to destroy the planet, in a moment of pure selflessness, made the ultimate sacrifice to save the planet and the hope of her daughter staying safe.
Armageddon has no clue his attack was intercepted. He begins laughing in victory until...
"HA!"
A blinding flash of light pierces through the cloud and haze of the last attack. Armageddon has to shield his eyes from the intense light. Suddenly something strange happens. Armageddon begins to feel the air around him begin to pick up speed as it blows by him, only, instead of blowing past him from the front, it begins to move from behind him.
Armageddon fights against the vacuum that is now yanking all of the plants and debris from the lookout to where Gohan and Vegeta once stood.
"What is this?" Armageddon yells.
Finally Armageddon has enough with struggling against the vortex. He quickly straightens and stiffens his body and powers up a little with a roar. The resulting power up causes Armageddons aura to flare and it darkens everything behind him, much like it had done when he had first landed on Earth. He grins down at the source of the vortex unaware of what would be waiting to gaze back at him. As the light slowly dies down Armageddon is able to gaze upon the warrior before him for the first time ever. Armageddons eyes widen as he stares at the fuzed fighter in disbelief.
"Impossible! I watched my blast land right on top of them!" Armageddon simply can't believe his eyes now.
The fuzed Vegeta and Gohan slowly slide their eyes open. His pupils are black but his irises are the reddish color that Vegeta's eyes were as a super saiyan three. He inhales deeply and fills his lungs with air for the first time. His hair is what stands out the most though.
The long golden hair of a super saiyan three crossed with Gohan's short black spiky hair made the hair of this new fighter at about mid back. The main color of the hair is golden but the tips are black.. As he eyes Armageddon he opens his mouth to speak. The calm smooth voice from Gohan mixed with the harsh voice of Vegeta would give the devil himself a chill down his spine.
"Armageddon. On this day, YOU will meet YOUR end." His words flow with confidence.
Armageddon regains his own composure. "You think by becoming one you can win? The most you will do is serve as a good test for my new power." He boasts.
"Enough talking. It's time you felt the fear you have inflicted on so many!" As the fuzed fighter ends his sentence he fazes out. Armageddons eye grow wide. Before he can even blink, the fuzed fighter reappears in front of him and drives his elbow into Armageddons gut.
Armageddon floats back wile clutching his gut. "You'll, pay for that."
Armageddon lifts his chin and glares death to the fighter before him. "I will not allow you to best me."
"Show me your true power and then we will see who is the best fighter."
Armageddon is slightly shocked by the offer but he takes it with much pleasure. He leans back up then he arches his back and screams intensely as he now begins to power up to his max. Now the wind begins to pour from his position.
The fuzed fighter holds his ground. Only his hair moves as a result from the intense winds. Armageddons body itself begins to darken, his skin begins to turn dark black, his eyes brighten.
Goten and Trunks finally wake up just as they are blown off the edge of the lookout. Trunks opens his eyes and the first thing he notices is the bottom of the lookout falling farther and farther away. Goten opens his and sees a cloud pass him by. It takes the two boys a moment to figure out whats going on, and that their even alive.
They each flail their appendages in flapping manners before they finally come to the realization that they can fly. They slowly bring themselves to a halt and fix themselves. The face each other.
"What happened? Why are we falling down?" Goten asks.
"I'm not sure but do you feel that?" Trunks asks as he gazes back up to the darkening lookout.
Goten looks up as well. "Yeah, it feels scary. Is that Armageddon?"
Trunks turns his head to Goten. "Yeah I think so but that's not who I mean. Can you feel that other power?"
Goten focuses and quickly picks up on the new power. "I can, but who is that?"
"I'm not sure, lets go find out. I want to see what happened with my dad. I hope he's alright."
"Me to. I hope my brothers safe."
With that the two turn back to the lookout and tiredly begin floating back up to it.
…
Armageddon pushes his energy to it's limits. With a sudden burst of power his aura darkens and his skin turns jet black wile his eyes still glow crimson. He turns his full attention to the new fighter before him and flashes his fangs. His overall appearance can only be described as a demon.
"So. This is it?" The warrior comments.
"It's plenty. You will be the first and the last to witness my godly power!" Armageddons voice rumbles and is deep enough to vibrate the remaining small rocks near him.
"Pathetic." Is all the warrior says.
Armageddon slowly floats back. "If that's what you believe. I will crush you. You filthy creature!" Armageddon taunts as he balls his fists. His aura begins to swirl around them.
"I have a name freak." The warrior calmly says.
Armageddons eyes twitch once. The lack of fear from this fighter was bothering him.
"You would do well to learn it." The warrior Blinks once slowly then brings his fists to his hips. A smirk crosses his lips but his eyes stay fixed angrily on Armageddon. Slowly a golden aura begins to envelop him and a small hole in the darkness above him begins to form and grow. Pure light graces the surface of the lookout where he stands.
Armageddon clenches his jaw tightly. He didn't know what to make of this. The warrior speaks again. "I am Vegetan! The shield of this world and the spear of it's people!"
Vegetan throws his arms up to the sky and with a yell he powers up to his max and shoots a beam into the sky. Armageddon watches the spectacle in wonder. The beam hits the darkness caused by Armageddon and swiftly overwhelms it. Armageddon turns back to Vegetan.
"Is this it! You blew the clouds away and you expect me to be frightened!" Vegetans smirk was long gone. He watches Armageddons movements like a hawk. "Fool! I'll show you how truly weak you are!"
Armageddon holds out his arm and points two fingers at Vegetan. With a growl then a yell he fires a powerful beam at Vegetan. The beam travels straight through him.
"What the?" Armageddon blinks several times to make sure he wasn't seeing things. "It went straight through him! Why is he still standing!"
Vegetan takes a step toward Armageddon. The tiny rocks beneath his feet float in the air where he once was despite him leaving the spot. Armageddon panics slightly.
"No! Die!" He fires more beams as he quickly takes flight. Vegetan doesn't move again and again they pass straight through him.
"Impossible! You can't be dodging my attacks that fast!" Armageddon grinds his fangs. "Fine! Dodge this weakling!"
Armageddon holds his right arm out and grips it at the wrist with his left hand. He crosses his fingers and takes aim at Vegetan. Sparks begin mixing with electric bolts as he charges his attack. Vegetan watches him intently.
Goten and Trunks finally make it back to the top of the lookout. They can't believe their eyes.
"Wow! Goten! Check it out!"
"I see it! Gohan and Vegeta used fusion!" Goten excitedly says.
Goten then looks up and his excitement turns to dread. "Oh no! Armageddon is still alive and he's about to use that weird attack!"
Trunks follows Goten's gaze. "Oh... great... now what?"
Vegetan brings his arms up and focuses his energy into a shield. He eases his eyes closed just as Armageddon fires his attack. His booming roar causes Goten and Trunks to have to grasp their ears.
"Doomsday shock!"
Armageddon laughs as he speaks. "What will you do now!" He taunts.
The voice of Gohan echos in the mind of Vegetan. 'Your ki can do more than be used as just an attack. It can be just as easily be used to defend.' The same speech Gohan and given Videl during their training echos but is soon joined by Vegeta's voice. 'When one learns how to control their energy, it can be used to defend and attack in the same motion.'
Vegetans eyes snap open. Armageddons deep crimson attack strikes their shield and Vegetan yells as he makes his shield absorb the attack and more.
"What the!" Armageddon screams as he watches his attack feed into the shield and swirl around it. Vegetan smiles at Armageddon.
"Here, I think this belongs to you!" The swirling crimson energy feeds into a single point of their shield. Armageddon can't believe his own eyes. Vegetan forces his energy to purge the dark energy from the shield and sends Armageddons doomsday shock back at him.
"This isn't possible!" Armageddon screams. He then quickly brings up his own shield. His attacks reaches him and splits into four lightning like bolts and surround him. Armageddon strengthens his shield as his own attack strikes it.
Armageddon laughs despite the embarrassment of having to shield himself from his own attack. "I can make a shield as well! If that's the best you have got then you won't last long."
Vegetan watches Armageddon curiously. Two blue orbs form in Vegetans palms as he charges an added strike.
"Try this then freak!" Vegetan throws two powerful energy balls at Armageddon. The balls of energy strike and explode. Armageddon tears through the haze created by the attacks at Vegetan.
Vegetan leaps back just as Armageddon swings down. Armageddon growls. "Stay still pest!" He jumps at Vegetan and swings again. Vegetan leans back at the waist, as soon as the fist sails past he leans forward again and glares at Armageddon.
"Fight me dammit!" Armageddon swings his leg out and tries to land a hard kick to Vegetans head. Vegetan counters in a way Armageddon could never have expected. Vegetan steps in and smother Armageddon. He drives his fist into the monsters gut then leaps up and cracks his knee into Armageddons head.
Vegetan then flips back and grabs a hold of Armageddons leg. Vegetan brings his arm up high and yells as he drops his elbow onto Armageddons shin. It snaps in two.
Armageddon howls in pain as his leg dangles below him in a disgusting way. Vegetan smirks at the sight.
"Scream for me." Vegetan taunts.
Armageddon fights back the pain. Fear begins to overwhelm him, the words from Vegetan frighten him.
"Y-Your a monster!" Armageddon screams. He takes flight again in an attempt to run. He glances behind him and is pleased to see no sign of Vegetan. He turns back around and stops dead in his tracks in fear. "How did you-?"
Vegetan intercepts him with the same menacing stare from before. Armageddon raises his energy shield.
"You won't be able to break my shield! I know that soon you will become two again like the small ones before did. When that happens I will destroy you and this worthless planet!"
Vegetan doesn't respond, he simply floats back. Armageddon smiles as he now believes he has won.
Vegetan stops where he is and stares at Armageddon for a few seconds that frighten the self proclaimed end of all things, and for good reason. Vegetan raises his arm and points his fingers like a rifle at Armageddon. He then reaches up with his other arm and grabs his pointed hand at the wrist.
"What? What are you doing?" Armageddon yells in fear.
"Ending your reign! Now, feel my wrath!" Vegetan growls as he focuses his energy into a single point. His finger tips begin to glow in a platinum color.
...
"Gohan, you will have to learn how to use that attack your mate developed." Vegeta instructs.
Gohan looks at him like he's crazy. "Videl's attack? You mean the piercing hope attack?"
"Precisely. You are the only one close enough to her to be able to replicate the attack. Do it, and do it fast. We are almost out of time."
"I don't have to learn it Vegeta, I already know how to do it." Gohan informs. His tone then saddens a bit. "We developed it together since she couldn't learn the ka-me-ha-me-ha at first."
Vegeta's eyes brighten. "Ha! Perfect. Then we can finally leave this room." Vegeta turns on his heels and heads for the exit but Gohan stops him.
"Why do we need that attack anyway? Shouldn't we have more then enough power to beat Armageddon?"
Vegeta looks down at his feet as the memories of the moment Armageddons shield began to fail return. The moment when the weakest of the four began to break down the incredibly strong shield with her own attack.
"Armageddons energy shield is the strongest I have ever encountered. Despite his weakened state he was able to hold off the combined attack of Kakarot myself and Tien. We couldn't make a dent in the blasted thing."
Vegeta looks level again and right at Gohan. "Until your mate began to pour more energy into it that is. I don't know how or why but that particular attack can break right through shields, we will need that if Armageddon is backed into a corner and raises his shield."
Gohan smirks confidently. "In that case, we should have some fun with him before he goes."
Vegeta smirks right back in an eerily similar way. "What did you think I had planned? I want to make him suffer, make him regret ever setting foot on this planet. Lets go Gohan, we have a score to settle." Vegeta says as he reaches for the door of the room of spirit and time in excitement.
…
Vegetan pumps more energy then probably even needed into the attack. "Piercing Furry!" He screams as he launches the super powered version of Videl's attack.
Armageddon quickly strengthens his shield as much as he can as the piercing furry strikes it. It does little to stop it. Vegetans piercing furry slices right through Armageddons shield like a hot knife through butter and strikes the monster right through his chest.
Armageddon yells as his shield shatters and fails him. His screams are silenced as soon as the piercing furry hits his chest and then explodes out of his back taking with it most of his intestines. His once crimson glowing eyes slowly fade into white as he falls back to the earth.
Vegetan can't help but smile as he watches the monsters body sink through the clouds followed by a trail of blood, meat and bone fragments.
The battle was finally over.
/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/
A/N: Well I said this was the final chapter and I lied, it went much longer then I expected. I hope everyone enjoyed this chapter and hopefully Vegetan lives up to your expectations. I did the best I could with my mental image of him. This took a lot longer to post due to a suicide wile at work, a woman jumped from five stories up and face planted. I was the only one around at the time. I can now say I know what a sickening crunch sounds like. Anyway, moving to my new house hasn't helped speed things along any but ether way the chapter is done.
