"OK!" said the Budokai Announcer. "Time for the last fight of the first round! Juuhachigou participated in the 25th Budokai three years ago, and came in second place to Mr. Satan himself! Opposing her will be Karyuudo, who is known for his mysterious, some say mystic, powers! He almost made the finalists in the 23rd Budokai many years ago, and has spent the time since then honing his art. Has it been enough?"
Juuhachigou and Karyuudo entered the ring and took up their positions. Karyuudo, a middle-aged man in hunter's garb, nodded at her. She remained as unreadable as always.
"BEGIN!"
Karyuudo immediately clapped his hands, and a grey mist appeared, covering everything.
"Oh!" said the Announcer, intrigued. "This is one of Karyuudo's trademarks, blinding his opponent with mist and then defeating them! Let's see--wait! Something is rising out of the mist!"
The something turned out to be Juuhachigou. In one hand she was holding a very embarassed looking Karyuudo by the collar of his shirt.
She floated several years to the edge of the arena and found where Soumei and Jinsoku were sitting.
"Is he with you?"
They nodded.
"Make room."
The two fighters scooted apart. Juuhachigou sat the hunter inbetween them.
"Get rid of the mist."
Karyuudo clapped again and the grey fog dispersed. The woman nodded and returned back to the ring.
"Uh...Karyuudo is out of the ring in one of the most unorthodox methods I've ever seen...winner, JUUHACHIGOU!"
"I bet you wish you could conjure up a little personal mist for yourself, hm?" said Soumei.
"Oh, shut up," was Karyuudo's reply as Jinsoku snickered.

The Announcer's voice boomed throughout the stadium again.
"Well, that concludes our first round, and we've had some exciting matches! In the next round, we'll get to see Son Goku vs. Ma Junior, Mr. Satan vs. Kasabaru, Vegeta Briefs vs. Mirai Briefs, and Mr. Buu vs. Juuhachigou! But first, a ten minute recess! See you then!"

"Well, that was a great first round," said Gohan.
"Definitely."
There was a pause.
"Think ten minutes would be enough time?"
She shrugged. "We're on our honeymoon, why the hell not?"
