I do not own Dragonball Z or anything affiliated with it.
Hell, if I did own it, I'd be making cartoons instead of writing
fanfictions and drawing doujinshis. Also,
forgive me, but I'm not good at writing fight scenes.
Be nice to it, I've never really tried before.
And in the flashback (where Trunks is talking to Bulma—Ka-chan) assume
he's around five or six...otherwise it'll just sound strange.
Please remember to read and review.

DBZ Announcer Guy: Last time in this fanfic...
Without a word, Trunks walked forward, stopping mere inches from Vegita.
For what seemed like an eternity, their eyes were simply locked in total
silence. Finally Trunks raised a fist and sent it flying across Vegita's jaw.
"Kisama…" Vegita growled,
raising his power to Super Saiya-Jin level as well. He smiled cockily again as
he slowly wiped a thin stream of blood away from his mouth.
"There's only one way for me to
prove myself to you Vegita," Trunks said threateningly. "That much
I've figured out. And as much as I don't want to, I have to do it."
Vegita scowled, his features showing a
slight interest despite the angry look. "Really? And what's' that?"
Trunks took a few steps back, spread his
arms, and glared at his father.
"Fight me Vegita! No stops this
time!"
* * * * *
Vegita's frown quickly turned into an amused smirk.
Finally the boy had made a suggestion he could agree to.
"If that's what you want...for me to beat you into a bloody pulp, then
fine. Let's go."
He said proudly, never taking his eyes away from his infuriated son.
Trunks only nodded silently as he stepped forward, crouching into an
attack position. A voice in his
head continuously shouted "What do you
think you're doing?!" but he ignored it as his blue-green eyes narrowed at
Vegita. This was going to be
settled here and now, even if only one of them would walk away from the fight.
Long tense minutes passed and neither said a word or made the first move.
They circled each other several inches off the ground, eyes locked in a
deadly glare like wild animals.
"You have no reason to care..."
"No," Trunks
growled under his breath, Vegita's recent insults plaguing his memory.
"Do you know just how pathetic you
are boy?"
"No."
"Weak, stupid brat."
"No!"
"As far as I'm concerned, you
brat, have none of my blood."
"NOOO!"
Trunks suddenly screamed in fury and lunged full force at Vegita,
managing to hit him in the chest with a knee.
The older Saiya-Jin took the blow without so much as a flinch and punched
his son's face in return. Slightly
stunned, Trunks staggered back a few steps and almost fell before regaining his
composure and charging again. Vegita
held out one arm and clothes lined him to the ground effortlessly.
Trunks gasped in pain as his body hit the dirt shoulders first.
As he tried to sit up, a heavy foot stomped firmly on his chest.
"Is this really all you can do boy?" Vegita smiled and added more
pressure to Trunks' already bruised and broken ribs with his foot.
"If it is you'd best stop wasting your time before you get seriously
hurt."
Trunks said nothing as he struggled to sit up.
His ribs protested in pain and forced him back to the ground.
Without hesitation, he fired a ki blast at Vegita, sending him flying
backward about ten feet. Had
he not been so furious, Trunks would have been surprised with himself.
He would never use such a sneaky attack like that, not even on an enemy.
He quickly fought off the annoying thought and rose to his feet.
Vegita was already sitting up and glaring at Trunks angrily.
"That was low..." Vegita said as he stood up.
"No respectable fighter would do that."
He brushed some dust away from his shoulder and folded his arms.
"Is that the only way you can gain an edge in battle?
By using cheap tricks? Believe
me boy, tricks will not get you very far."
"I don't expect them to," Trunks replied icily.
He quickly shot two ki blasts at the Saiya-Jin prince's feet, then fired
a third where he was sure Vegita would fly to avoid the first two.
The third shot hit Vegita's shoulder and slightly singed his armor.
He cursed himself for making such a predictable move, then rushed at
Trunks. No one made him look like
such a fool and got away with it.
The two collided in mid air and exchanged a rapid series of punches and
kicks. Trunks had an obvious
advantage, fighting with blind fury behind him.
This is the one thing he had never wanted to do.
He had never wanted to fight his own father, he had only wanted to meet
him his entire life. He never
expected it would be like this.
"Ka-chan, what was Otousan like?"
"You always ask me that Trunks honey.
"Well you never answer...Please Ka-chan, if you tell me now, I swear
I'll never ask again."
"Your father...He was very brave and strong Trunks.
He was one of the greatest fighters this or any world had ever seen.
He was never good at showing affection though...not to anyone."
"Not even you Ka-chan?"
"He...he never told me he cared."
"So he wasn't even a nice guy?"
"I...I'm sure there was a nice guy in there somewhere.
I only saw a passive look on his face once...That gave me a clue that he
was kind-hearted in some way. The
day you were born honey, he actually looked...happy.
I only wish he could have given me that look just once..."
~~ Otousan...you never told
her...You broke my mom's heart. ~~
His only half-sane thought in minutes brought on a new wave of anger.
He pushed himself a few feet away from Vegita, then sent a storm of ki
attacks at him, knocking him to the ground and keeping him there as the blasts
hit the ground.
~~ Where'd he get the energy to do
an attack like this? ~~ Vegita wondered as he tried to protect himself from
Trunks' unrelenting attacks. Several
blasts hit him directly, but he ignored the stinging pain as he fought to get
up. He felt Trunks' ki dropping
with each shot he fired. A matter
of minutes and the boy would collapse from exhaustion.
This was a stupid move that only a foolish, inexperienced, or desperate
fighter would try, and he knew very well that Trunks was none of those three.
The boy was simply too angry to think straight...he probably didn't even
notice how rapidly his strength was leaving him.
Vegita flew upward in an attempt to stop his son.
This battle would mean nothing if Trunks couldn't fight before there was
even a climax.
Vegita got within a few feet of the young half Saiya-Jin, knocked both
legs out from under him, and slammed a double handed fist into his back,
sending him plummeting to the ground. Trunks
didn't move for a few minutes. Except
for ragged breathing, he lay completely still, face down in the dirt.
Vegita hovered a few inches above the ground nearby and looked down at
Trunks with disgust.
"Get up," He said arrogantly. Vegita
folded his arms and looked down at him. "You're
wasting my time boy."
Trunks didn't move.
Vegita moved a little closer and kicked Trunks' side.
"Get up brat!" He shouted again.
He heard a soft moan in response, but still Trunks didn't attempt to
rise.
"You're really trying my patience!" Vegita shouted as he fired two
powerful ki blasts at Trunks. One
hit the younger Saiya-Jin directly, but he managed to roll out of the way and
get to his knees before the second could get to him.
"Come on now, GET UP!" Vegita raced at him with blinding speed, but
Trunks was ready this time.
He crossed his arms in front of his face and stopped Vegita cold.
Trunks pushed him back a little, raised one foot off the ground and
delivered a sharp kick to his father's ribcage, sending him flying ungracefully
to the side.
"Come on Vegita," Trunks growled, almost in a taunting tone.
He landed on the ground and walked slowly towards Vegita. One
hand was clamped over his throbbing ribs and he was gasping heavily for breath.
He glared furiously at the Saiya-Jin prince, who was trying to pick
himself up off the ground. "This
isn't over yet!" He shouted.
"You can say that again," Vegita shot back.
"I'm not leaving until I teach you a lesson, brat."
Trunks grinned forebodingly as he pulled the remainder of his energy
into a much stronger attack. "Otousan…We'll
just see about that."
