Battle Rhapsody: Chapter 6
(All characters except the ones I made up are from DBZ, in other words don't sue me. I'm just writing a fanfic here. Sorry for the long wait everyone. After my horrible ordeal with the WB company.....well lets just say there are some sick minds behind Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck. Either way I'm back and I'm going to entertain you with my pathetic attempt at a DBZ fic. So sit back and suffer through my next chapter)
Mr. Satan slowly peeked out from behind a corner towards the ring where C-18 was standing ready for battle. He knew from watching her with the punching machine that she was no odinary fighter. She was incredibly strong, and frankly he didn't want to fight someone who was so strong.
"Would Mr. Satan please report to the ring. Your fight is about to commence!" came the annoucer's voice, ringing over the crowd.
"Mr. Satan? Mr. Satan? Does anyone know where Mr. Satan is?"
Suddenly Mr. Satan popped out from the corner and walked towards the ring, a huge goofy grin on his face. Though that grin was just masking the horrible fear he had, that was practically causing his knees to shake.
C-18 gave him a hard stare from the arena, as she watched the current "champ" approach her.
"This has got to be a joke...." she thought to herself as he climbed into the ring laughing and smiling like an idiot.
"All right little girl! I hope your ready, cuz your butt is toast!" Satan yelled, pointing at her.
C-18 started to feel the fire spark in her eyes as she was forced to listen to his idiot insult her like this. Though she kept her cool, remembering the deal.
"All right then. Let the fight commence!"
"I give you five minutes and your done." Satan said holding up his hand.
"Yeah yeah, now come at me already. I don't have all day." she grumbled.
"Oh...uh...right." and with that he came charging at her with as many punches and kicks her could muster up. 18 on the other hand was just watching him do this.
"Ugh, your pathetic!" she yelled and flicked his forehead causing him to fall backwards. He quickly got up, clutching his head.
"How dare you! You might have gotten one lucky punch in. But it will be your last!" he yelled pointing. Then he made a quick prayer sign, asking her to just give up like she promised.
18 sighed and just motioned for him to come at her. Which he did full force, reering his fist back for his ultimate attack.
"Mr. Satan's super mega ultra atomic punch attack!!!" he screamed slamming his fist into her face. Silence insueing thereafter.
The wind blew as C-18 stood there motionless. Satan gulped realizing that she wasn't going for it. She was going to beat him, humiliating him in front of all these people.
Then suddenly 18 flew back, and landed out of the ring. Leaving everyone speechless, including Satan. Slowly as time went by the cogs in his head began to turn again, as he realized what had just happened.
"Ha....ha....ha....hahahahhahaha!" Satan yelled starting his normal maniacal laughter.
"Thats what you get when you mess with the champ! You should of known that....that......"
He stopped when he noticed C-18 getting up and giving him a death glare, as she turned and walked away, holding up two fingers.
"Right.....two days to pay you 20 million Zenni......" Satan mumbled to himself as he watched her go. Then he quickly went back into champion mode, yelling and screaming his head off.
"I wonder how much she made...." Marron muttered to herself. Krillin looked down at her hearing that.
"What was that honey?"
"I said, I wonder how much that guy had to pay mom to let him win."
"Payed to let.....him.....Oh I get it!" he said suddenly, everything suddenly making sense.
Chichi's eyes suddenly welled up with tears.
"Why didn't my Goku, or Gohan, or Goten. Why couldn't one of them have fought him and get the money. We need it so badly!" she wailed.
"Oh don't worry Chichi. If your having money problems we'll help. Besides I doubt anyone of them would of thrown the fight for money like that." Bulma said reasurringly.
Chichi suddenly stood up with a determined look.
"I will not accept. My Goku will win this tournament and win the money fair and square. You just wait and see!"
Bulma bowed her head.
"I guess she and Goku do have something in common.....stubborness...."
"Alright folks! Its time for the next matchup! Would the great saiyaman, and Yamu please report to the arena!" the annoucer yelled.
Down where the fighters stood Gohan looked towards his dad.
"Well here I go dad....wish me luck." he said with a grin.
"He won't need it." Videl said as she walked up and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Then she grabbed his ear and squeezed it hard.
"Or at least he better not....."
Gohan laughed nervously as he walked out onto the arena. Goku watched his son with a smile, though his attention suddenly turned to Shin, who seemed to be staring at Gohan strangely.
"Goku....I don't like this at all." Cell whispered in his ear, standing next to him.
"Don't like what Cell?"
"That Shin guy. There's something about him. Look at Piccolo, and you'll understand what I mean."
Goku knew was Cell was getting at when he saw that Piccolo was visibly shaking and sweating heavily, as he gave occasional glances at Shin.
"I don't know Cell. Maybe you're right. But don't worry, I'll keep a watch on him." Goku said softly as he a strange feeling was starting to creep up his own spine.
Out on the arena Gohan watched as Yamu, a short, skinny, bald man stepped onto the ring. He seemed very agitated for veins were visible through his skin all over his body. Though the most prominent thing about him was the large M on his forehead. The strange thing though, was that he was carrying a strange device in his hands.
The referee noticed this to, and walked up to him.
"Excuse me sir...but there are no foreign objects allowed in the......GAH!" the referree yelled as Yamu suddenly threw him from the ring.
"Hey you can't do that!" Gohan yelled getting in a battle stance.
"Heh..." Yamu muttered, as he charged at Gohan, the device he had in his hands pointed at Gohan. To be more precise, the large needle on the device was pointed towards Gohan.
Gohan's eyes went wide as he prepared to dodge out of the way when suddenly he couldn't move. A strong energy was holding him in place, and he started to panic realizing that this may be the end.
Then in a blink of an eye he felt something sharp pierce his side. The extreme pain causing him to instantly change into a super saiyan.....then to SSJ2. He couldn't control it. It was like someone else was controlling his body.
Goku's eyes were wide as he watched Yamu stab the device straight into Gohan. And cringed as he listened to Gohan's screams of agony. He was about to act when he heard Shin's voice. And as he looked down at him, he realized that the energy holding Gohan was coming from Shin.
"Stay where you are Goku. I promise no permenent harm will come to your son. Just stay here." Shin said in a low voice as he stared at the scene going on in front of him, his eyes glowing steadily as he held Gohan in place.
Cell watched this scene in utter confusion. Not knowing why nothing was happening. Nobody was going to help Gohan. Not even his own father.
"Thats enough! I'm stopping this right....."
"No Cell.....I....trust Shin. If he says Gohan will be alright, I trust him." Goku said softly holding his hand in front of Cell.
Sapphire held her hands over her mouth as she watched.
"Oh my god....poor Gohan....."
Then as soon as the horror had started it was over again. And Yamu was now standing over the fallen Gohan, smirking as he flew off in a burst of energy. The device still present in his hands.
The moment this happened Shin snapped to life.
"Kibito, go heal Gohan. I'm going to follow Yamu." he said instructively.
"Wait! Shin, what is this all about!" Goku demanded.
Kibito all of a sudden spoke up for the first time.
"Stop calling the supreme Kai by his first name. You should speak to him formally and address him as the supreme kai." Kibito simply said.
Everyone was shocked by this turn of events. Piccolo more so then the others.
"It all makes sense now. I should of known, but I never fathomed that there was someone above the grand kai." Piccolo said, his muscles tightened uncontrollably.
Then once again Kibito spoke.
"To answer your question Goku. The man known as Yamu is nothing more then a pawn. A pawn of a great wizard known as Babadee. Long ago Babadee's father Bibidee created a monster. A monster known as Majin Buu. The creature was so horrible that it destroyed hundreds of worlds in an instant. It even destroyed the supreme Kai's homeworld. Then one day Bibidee sent Buu to this planet, Earth.
Here the supreme kai was able to destroy Bibidee and trap Buu. But Buu was left here, since we figured that no mortal here could resurrect Buu, and it was to dangerous to try to destroy him, in light of we might accidently set him free form the egg we imprisoned him in. But what he didn't plan on was that Bibidee had a son Babadee. And now Babadee has come to this planet to resurrect Buu."
Vegita's ears perked up as he listened. A smile creeping across his face as he realized there was a new enemy to test his strength on.
Shin shook his head. We have no time for discussion. I must follow Yamu to find Babadee's spaceship. That is where he is holding the egg I captured Buu in. Goku, you are welcome to come. But be warned, the dangers we may face there will be immense.
Everyone there suddenly got a determined look in their eyes.
"I've protected this planet many times before, and I have no intention of stopping now. I'm in." Goku said with a smirk.
"If Kakkarot is going then I'm going to. Besides I might actually find a challenge through all this." Vegita said with a smirk as well.
"Both you fools can't possibly have a chance without me." Cell added in.
"If dad's going so am I." Sapphire said.
"I can't let Sapphire go without me" Trunx said after her.
"I have in me the former guardian of his planet. I cannot just watch whilst this planet is in danger. I shall go as well." Piccolo said with his arms crossed.
"Don't think you're leaving me behind either." Goten said, standing next to Kibito.
Shin smirked, impressed by their bravery.
"All right then. Kibito, go heal Gohan. Everyone....follow me."
And with that eight people flew off into the sky. All in hot pursuit of Yamu.
Meanwhile up in the stands Chichi was going crazy when she saw her son lying in the arena, looking dead. She wanted to go down there so badly, but Bulma and Jade kept persuading her to stay up with them, where it was safe.
"Calm down Chichi. Videl is looking after him. He'll be fine" Jade said reasurringly.
"If he's fine then why is my baby lying there!!!!" She yelled in a panic, then suddenly she noticed Kibito approaching Gohan.
"Huh?! Who is that man!"
"Get him away from my Gohan! Get him away!!!" Chichi screamed. Becoming more and more difficult for Jade and Bulma to handle.
Her struggling stopped when Kibito stooped down to Gohan, and covered his body with light. After which Gohan stood up, seemingly perfectly all right. The women watched as Kibito seemed to be talking to Gohan and Videl. Their talk concluded with what looked like an emotional moment between Videl and Gohan followed by Gohan waving goodbye, and flying off with Kibito.
"Huh? What? Where are they going? Where did everyone go? They're all gone!!!" Chichi yelled getting into a panic again.
Bulma and Jade watched as they started to realize this fact to.
"Oh my god! Frieza!"
"Oh my god! Sapphire!"
They both realized that neither of them knew where their children were. And for a women to lose her child in a paniced situation is never a good thing. Which of course now had all three of them going insane in their seats.
Meanwhile Krillin and Marron were watching them with mild understanding.
"They're probably off to save the world again." Krillin said with a sigh.
"Aren't you going with them?" Marron asked looking up at him.
"Uh...I'd probably only be in the way..." Krillin grumbled, settling down in a sitting position.
"Yeah...you probably would..." Marron said with a small smile, turning back to her book.
"Hey whats that suppoed to..."
"Shh! Reading...."
Down in the arena Mighty Mask was looking awfully confused.
"Hey Pan. What just happened. First it looked like you dad was dead. Then he got up and flew off to where my dad went." Frieza said looking down at her.
"I don't know. But they're probably going on an adventure to save the world. And we're being left behind!" Pan whined, looking up.
"Your right! We gotta follow them!!" Frieza yelled.
"Lets do it! We're going to save the world!" Pan cheered. And in a burst of energy their costume was torn to shreds and they both floated in place, ready to follow the others.
"Look! Its Pan!"
"And Frieza!"
Both Chichi and Bulma yelled. Though they could only watch as the two zoomed off after the others though.
"Wait come back! Oh you are so grounded mister when you come back!" Bulma screamed.
"Well at least Goku, Cell, and Vegita will be there to protect them." Jade chimed in. Though this only resulted with a death glare from Bulma and Chichi.
Krillin stared at the horizon as he watched all his friends dissapear.
"This is just great....."
To be continued....
(Well theres another chapter done. Please don't flame me for the lack of character use. I mean when you have 10+ characters its hard to keep track of them all, and give them all important parts. But don't worry, Cell is going to have a much bigger part to come. So see you next time! --takes out a piece of paper-- Oh yeah, and before you go. This has been brought you by the WB. Buy their stuff, or die! --looks to men in black suits next to them-- Is that what you wanted? It was......oh good....)
