Chapter 6
Mystic Outzaru
The full moon was almost up and there was no sign of Trunks showing. Gohan waited impatiently, starring at the sky. It was about 6 O'clock now and the sky was dim. The moon was about half visible. The sky was clear of clouds.
"Yo Gohan. No sign of Trunks?" Tetsumi called.
"Not yet." Gohan replied.
"What are you doing here? It may not be safe."
"I was just curious. If any trouble starts, I'll hop into my jet pod and leave."
The air craft she rode in on was called a jet pod, another one of her brilliant inventions. It used only gyrocentric power to fly. It was capable of keeping up with a Level 1 SuperSaiyan going at a leisurely pace. It was a tinted Plexiglas bubble that the passenger floated in. Anti gravity was a common thing now.
"It's against my better judgment but I don't think you'll listen to me anyway."
All of a sudden Gohan's body jerks. His eyes widened as he blankly gazed into the moon above his head. For seconds nothing happened, but then he was kicked in the stomach by a shadowy figure. The figures power was quite meager but enough to make Gohan stagger. Gohan looked down at the figure.
It looked just like Chibi Goku. Tetsumi did what she said and hopped into here jet pod.
"What's the big idea? Who are you and why do you look like my dad?" Gohan demanded.
The figure ignored Gohan query and kicked him again.
Once again Gohan announced, "Cut it out. Who are you?"
The figure once more went to kick Gohan, but Gohan gracefully dove out of the way. The figure continued to attack Gohan unsuccessfully. Tetsumi was about to fly off when she noticed a tattoo on the strange beings arm.
The tattoo was a bow with two R's; one R on each side of the bow. Tetsumi had done her research and knew what it was.
"Gohan, he has a red ribbon tattoo on his arm. It's not your dad. Gohan!!!" Tetsumi screamed.
The message didn't reach Gohan's ears though. The Plexiglas mesh walls of the pod stopped all sound from reaching Gohan. She tried again not realizing Gohan couldn't hear her.
"Gohan, he's part of the red ribbon army! Get him!" She said as she banged on the ships insides.
Gohan still could hear her. He continued to dodge fist after fist that was thrown at him. Gohan pleaded with the creature to stop and inform him of whom he was. Never did the creature's relentless assault cease.
Finally, determined to help Gohan, Tetsumi jumped out and screamed, "Gohan he's red..."
An energy wave was fired at Tetsumi.
"No!!!" Gohan shrieked as he shot forward to save Tetsumi. Gohan quickly grabbed her and took the wave on his back. "Red what? Tetsumi, Tetsumi!"
Tetsumi had passed out from the threat of being killed. Gohan turned around and faced his foe. "You should have never brought her into this."
"Red Ribbon. The Red Ribbon army." The creature showed Gohan the tattoo.
"So you caused all the damage to Earth. You'll pay."
"Not likely, I possess your father's entire power and more. There's no way you can win."
"Grant me this then before you kill me; How did you get his power?"
"When Bebi was on Earth my master collected cell samples just like his father did. Rather than make a perfect being, he copied Goku and made me. I am his clone. I was born as a child with the same power as him. I have been training for 150 years without stop. Just imagine what that would do to your power, and your mind. I was going crazy, so I broke free. I found that the only way to control my rage was to release it. So here we are, a destroyed world and me and you."
"You're a monster!"
"Maybe so, but I will destroy you."
Both of them charged up to their maximum power. Gohan became mystic and the clone became SSJ3. He had never seen a full moon before so he wasn't SSJ4. At the same time they both caught sight at the full moon.
"Ah..." They both screamed in unison as they grew 50 feet taller. Hair covered both their bodies. The clone was a Golden Outzaru, golden hair had grown. Gohan was something else. His Outzaru form had platinum colored hair standing on end. It was hunched over like a rabid beast. The muscular and toned body of the beast was nothing like the Golden Outzaru. It used its speed rather than pure strength.
The two Outzarus collided. Swinging crazily as blood was shed from both. Eventually Mystic Outzaru Gohan was able to gain the upper hand when he sweep-kicked the clone to the ground and jumped on it. Gohan continued to rampage of top of it, banging with its massive paws all over the battered clone's torso. With one final kick to the stomach the Golden Ape coughed out blood.
Gohan backed up and charged forward with a pained look on its face. The hair on his face was barely visible. His mouth trailed back almost to his ears. His teeth were sharp and jagged, dripping with fresh blood. The eyes on the beast were pewter yellow and glowed platinum. He seemed unstoppable until the tide shifted.
The Golden Outzaru shot a golden beam from its mouth that caught the Mystic Outzaru in the gut. Gohan flew back into a stone pillar built in commemoration of Goku's service as the eternal dragon. Gohan fell to his knees as a crack formed in the pillar. As Gohan looked up, the hair on his Outzaru back grew longer, his claws grew longer, and his mean streak grew longer.
Gohan attacked like lightening, thrashing the clone as if he was nothing. The clone's hair was half torn out and blood leaked from most of the Golden Outzaru's body. For seconds the creature didn't move. The Mystic Outzaru fell of guard when he thought that the clone had died. All of a sudden the clone charged at Tetsumi. Gohan didn't have enough time to save her.
It looked grim until a bright flash occurred. The Golden Outzaru flew back past Gohan. Someone had saved Tetsumi. His hair grew down to his legs and in a golden color. He lacked eyebrows and was extremely muscular. He also lacked a tail.
"Are you okay Tetsumi?" The figure asked.
"Yeah, I think so." Tetsumi answered.
"Now to do something about these monkeys."
With that, the SSJ3 charged a cube in his hands, not uninterruptedly however. The clone charged at this being but was met by an Outzaru knee to the stomach by Gohan. The black box was shot at the moon and in a flash the moon was gone.
