"Alright everyone now we have officially started our semi finals!! And our first fight will be krillin vs raditz" Eric shouted
"If goku couldn't beat raditz then krillin doesn't stand a chance against him" yamcha said he then received a punch in the head from launch "don't say that doofus you don't know what krillin can do!" She shouted
Krillin gulped he was hoping that he would fight kuroda at least she would have held back some
Raditz walked in the arena and waited on krillin
Krillin just wanted to give up but if he made it this far then maybe he he could go further he swallowed his fear and walked in the ring
'Hm the kids brave but I'll make quick work of him'
"Let the battle begin" eric said
Krillin charged in and threw a barrage of punches,raditz dodged them all and punched krillin in the gut
Krillin went flying back but recovered quickly,he cupped his hands to his side "kamehame-" krillin was interrupted by a knee to the face from raditz
Raditz hit krillin with a barrage of punches which put him on the defensive
Raditz kicked krillin up into the air blitzed behind him and slammed him back into the ground
Krillin laid on the ground in pain
Raditz landed back in the ring with his arms crossed "start counting" he demanded "r-right,one...two...three" Eric stuttered
Krillin slowly got up he stood on the edge of ring tired "I know I can't win but I got one technique I would like to show you" krillin said
"Hm? I'm interested go ahead" raditz said
Krillin put his hands in front if him and two ki balls formed in his hands "don't fail me now" krillin threw them both at raditz
Raditz dodged both the ki blast "is that all?" Raditz asked,when he went to look at krillin he wasn't there "what's with you guys and disappearing?"
Krillin was above him "eat this!!" He shouted as he threw some more ki blast at him,raditz jumped out the way and flew up towards krillin
Raditz punched krillin in the face but his fist passed through krillin used his after image technique "damn it that's annoying!!"
"I've got you now kamehameha!!" With the last energy he had he shot a kamehameha at raditz
Krillin fell out of air and landed on the ground and breathed heavily "I...i did it"
"And the winner is raditz!!" Eric announced
"What?" Krillin looked up and realized that he landed outside of the arena,krillin shredded a tear and punched the ground "damn it! I was so close"
Raditz walked up to krillin and helped him up "you did well if you train some more you might be on the same level as kakarot or at least yamcha"
"Hey I heard that!" yamcha shouted from the stands
"Thanks raditz" krillin said as they both walked off to the sidelines
"With that we enter our final battle of the semi final tien shinhan vs kuroda!!" Eric announced
"Good luck kuroda" goku and krillin said simultaneously
Kuroda giggled to herself "thanks boys" she bubbled,she was going to walk off but was stopped when roshi grabbed her by the arm "kuroda you need to be careful" he said
"Careful? I'm not going to hit him that hard,plus I'm pretty sure he can take a few hits" kuroda assumed
"That's not what I mean I'm talking about tien,you see his master shen over there?" He asked
kuroda nodded in response
"He's one of those guys that doesn't like it when things go his way and raditz denied his offer to join him,usually he would get mad but he's completely calm which means he's planning something and I think it will involve tien in this fight so just be careful" roshi explained
"Oh ok I understand,I'll be careful I promise" kuroda said she then walked off
Shen used telepathy to communicate with tien
'Since you and chiaotzu failed to kill one of roshi students I will allow you the chance to redeem yourself'
'What is it master?'
'Since that raditz wants to make me look like a fool I want you to kill that kuroda girl'
Tien's eyes went wide not because he showed sympathy towards her or because he was afraid of her,it was the fact that he was in the semi finals of the tournament and he wanted to win he wanted the title
He was going to say what was on his mind but he stayed quiet for a while
'Did you hear me tien?'
'Yes master I will do my best'
Tien then walked towards the arena with jackie chun's words on his mind,he didn't really want to kill but he didn't want to deny his master as well,he felt like he was trapped but he ignored these emotions and pushed on
As kuroda and tien walked side by side tien stared at her,kuroda caught him and smiled at him "Good luck tien" she chirped
Tien looked at her in utter confusion "why are you so happy?" tien asked
"Well I'm happy because I'm reunited with kakarot,everyday of my life I kept questioning if he was still alive,if he was ok,and if he was scared,but now that I know that he is ok" kuroda then smiled at him
"Well why are you being nice to me? Don't you remember I broke your friends leg" tien added
"Because I know it wasn't your choice and you didn't want to do it" kuroda uttered,tien's eyes went wide he clinched his fist out of anger "you don't know anything about me so you shouldn't be talking like your wise" he said bluntly
They then stepped into the arena and went to their opposite sides
The crowd went wild as kuroda and tien walked into the arena and walked to their sides
"Kick his ass kuroda!! Launch shouted
"Yeah,kuroda kick his ass!!" Chichi repeated the ox king couldn't believe his ears "chichi don't speak like that!" He exclaimed
"Sorry dad" chichi mumbled
Kuroda and tien stared at each other intensely from across the ring
"Don't expect me to go easy on you because your a woman" tien said,kuroda started doing stretches "I never asked you too,I can go easy on you if you want" she said,this made tien fierce
"She's a good fighter but she's so innocent and polite it makes her look dumb" raditz commented,"I don't think it's dumb it's pretty funny actually" goku chimed in "and cute" krillin mumbled
Goku and raditz looked at each other then looked at krillin "huh?" They spoke simultaneously,krillin now realizing what he said started freaking out "wait I didn't mean it like that I meant it in a cool way!" He blurted
"Oh that makes sense" goku said having no clue that his best friend had feelings for his sister,raditz however figured this out quickly he chuckled to him 'yeah I really like this planet'
"Let the battle begin!!" Eric shouted
Tien charged at kuroda but kuroda was still stretching with a smile on her face and her eyes closed
"Kuroda he's coming towards you!" Bulma shouted but kuroda kept stretching
Tien swung at kuroda,kuroda opened her eyes and caught tiens fist
'How did she see me coming?! she had her eyes closed!'
"Hey would you mind waiting a moment please? I wasn't done stretching" kuroda bubbled,tien gave her a look of confusion "w-what?" He said
"I'm asking you if I can finish my stretches" kuroda said,tien backed away and smirked "whatever makes you comfortable,your going to lose regardless" tien boasted
"Thank you" kuroda said she sat down took off her shoes and started touching her toes
Shen used telepathy to talk to tien again
'What are you doing tien? now is your chance you can kill her now!'
Tien ignored him
Kuroda got her shoes and handed them to eric "Can you hold these for me?" She said,"uh sure I guess" eric took her shoes
Kuroda then got into a stance "ok I'm ready" she announced without hesitation tien charged and punched her in the face
Tien followed up with a kick but kuroda flipped behind him and elbowed him in the back
"Go kuroda kick his butt!!" Chichi cheered
Tien spun around and threw a punch kuroda blocked it and uppercutted him causing him to stagger back,"your a lot tougher than I thought" tien commented "oh you don't even know" kuroda said leaving tien curious
Kuroda charged at tien jumped in the air and tried to kicked him in the chest,tien caught her foot and threw her at the wall
Kuroda screamed in pain as she hit the wall,tien then rushed at her and tried to knee her in the gut but kuroda blocked it and hit tien in the gut
Tien fell back and gained his composure again,he breathed heavily the last punch from kuroda left him out of breath
"Kuroda is giving tien a beating!" Oolong exclaimed "that's what he gets for hurting yamcha!" puar added
Roshi looked at shen as he stroked his beard 'what is he up to?'
"Chiaotzu get ready" shen whispered chiaotzu nodded in response
Kuroda charged at tien she then stopped her body froze up she couldn't move
Tien charged and kicked her in the side
Kuroda recovered and wondered why she couldn't move "what did you just do?" She asked tien,"I don't know what your talking about" tien responded
Kuroda charged at him again and kicked him in the gut,tien staggered back as he took the hit and grabbed her foot he swung her around and slammed her into the ground
Kuroda gritted her teeth in pain,she flipped off the ground and kicked tien in the chin she breathed heavily as she got into a stance
"Kuroda is having a hard time with tien" goku said "that's not true" raditz commented he sensed something was wrong with kuroda
Kuroda became dizzy, she started to stumble around,'no not again not now'
"She's not looking too good" roshi said "What is wrong with kuroda?" Krillin asked "I don't know" goku responded
Raditz walked towards the ring knowing what was going to happen,kuroda had told raditz about the visions she had on namek 'damn another vision'
Kuroda passed out but raditz caught her before she could hit the ground "she won't be able to fight anymore she has a health problem this happens a lot,so let's start my match" raditz said
"Now is your chance tienshinhan kill them both!!" Shen shouted "shut up!!" Tien shouted back which shocked the crowd "I am here for the title not for your dumb revenge plot!!"
Shen grew angry he had enough of his students disobeying him "fine then I'll just kill all of you!" Shen charged up a super dodon ray and pointed it at tien
"I won't let you hurt tien!" chiaotzu shouted,he held shen in place with his telekinesis
"Stand back" roshi said as he cupped his hands to his side "kamehameha!" He shot a kamehameha wave at shin which sent him flying into the air
The crowd was silent and then erupted with cheers
Eric was still kinda in shock but then gained his composure "Alright folks after that I think everyone is ready so see our final,raditz vs tien!!" He shouted
Raditz handed kuroda over to goku "kakarot take kuroda to the medics please and you and krillin stay with her at all times,oh and keep the old man away from her" he said
Goku held kuroda's unconscious body "ok raditz,let's go krillin" he responded as he and krillin ran off to the medics
Raditz and Tien stared at each other intensely "it's lucky that you're here if kuroda didn't pass out she would've won" raditz commented. Tien chuckled a bit "I guess you're right but I'm not holding back against you" he said "good that's what I like to hear" raditz said as the battle was about to begin
It seems this tournament has been a wild ride for our contestants as the finals are about to begin
Tien finally stepped up to his master shen and denied his orders to kill kuroda
But even with all the drama and fighting kuroda seems to be having another vision her first one in many years
Who will win the tournament? What will kuroda's vision be about? And will tien and chiaotzu become allies with kuroda and the others?
