Disclamer: This saga will be a long one. This will be
printable, please print when it is complete to fully enjoy
the saga's text instead of sitting and starring at a
screen. Also note that this saga was created by me, the
characters are not mine though, it takes place between the
end of Dragon Ball Z and the beginning of Dragon Ball GT.
This should not be taken seriously. Also, I wrote the names
in English so it will be easier to comprehend. Since this
is so big, expect some mistakes with the tenses past,
present, and future.
Chapter 3: Showdown at High Noon and Unexpected Late-War Artillery
Rage, as well as adrenaline, was surging through little Trunk's heart as his hair blew from side to side. Ignoring his wounds, he finally summoned the courage to attack his friend, Goten. Moving from side to side with his agility, he easily overcame Goten, and planted his minute, yet bulky knee into Goten above his waist. Goten squealed with pain and spit up a piece of bacon. Goten uttered, "Why," just before his hair turned its usual black and he plummeted hopelessly towards the earth.
"Hey Trunks! Think fast!" Before Trunks had a second to think, Vegeta hammered his enormous fist into Trunks's forehead and sent him spinning into the distance. Goku watched as Trunks turned into a speck in the night sky, perhaps a new star.
Goku, taken totally aback by Vegeta's action, thought no son deserved to be handled like that, not even in a scrimmage fight. Goku used his instant transmission technique to get behind Vegeta, just close enough to grab his foot. Around and around Vegeta went, until he became rather funny feeling. He never experienced an emotion such as this. it was called dizziness. Since Vegeta was in this state, he was partially oblivious to his opponent and surroundings. However, what hit him was like a sack of rocks.
"Ahhh! Goku, why has your energy level tripled!?!" He was just cut off from any more verbal communication as the burnt chicken Bulma tried to cook came up. Vegeta thought to himself, "Man, that woman can't cook, but I am lucky she is my wife." Anyway, back to Vegeta's current predicament. "No Goku. Don't do it."
"This is how your son feels every day of his tormented life," Goku shot him an evil glare, "Now you will feel a piece of his life." Goten and Trunks regain their fighting stances but back off as they see Vegeta. "Meet my newest weapon on my arsenal, DRAGON FLARE!" Vegeta watches as a small dot swells to the size of a soccer ball and slams into his chest, acting like a propulsion system he was flung over the horizon.
Goten wet himself at the sight of Goku's new power, so he turned and ran. Trunks found it wise to follow. They were no match for Goku for he was the strongest, fastest, and bravest man they had ever known, unlike them. They turned tails and ran, bumping and swirling, but it wasn't long before Goku was upon them again.
"Hi, son. What's the rush? Done playing already, but I'm just getting warmed up." Goten was on the precipice of wetting himself. Trunks was fumbling for words himself.
Damn! Why does he have to know the instant transmission technique. This past statement was just that. Goten and Trunks were thinking simultaneously, Ready. LETS GO! Moving at mach 3, they disappeared in a cloud of dust. Gotenks was on the scene. His long, golden hair swaying in the wind as he gives Goku the "come-and-get-me" looks. Fluorescent blue raw energy lightening swirls around his fusion vest. He was a force to be reckoned with.
There was one thing that Goku noticed. his eyebrows were missing. Beginning to panic, he quickly began to power up. His aura grew twice it's size and a more intense yellow. The ground shook as is splintered. Rocks were lifted out and obliterated as raw energy swirled around it, taking its toll on the earth. The ground was splitting as far as Satan City. Goku finishing his SSJ2 transformation moved on to SSJ3. All of the ground within a fifty-foot radius was instantly incinerated, and a crater remained. The coming power alone was enough to cause a thunderstorm. The transformation was complete with a blood-chilling yell from Goku. Goku's hair shot out three feet longer as his eyebrows were sucked into his skull. Goku used the dust to block Gotenks's vision, and the thunder to block his hearing.
"KA. ME. HA. ME. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Gotenks was taken by surprise as an enormous blue beam shot out of the dust cloud. It engulfed him and threw him back. Goku was there to pull him out before any permanent damage was done. "You may have cheated by fusing, but I'm game!"
Goten's muscles weren't helping too much, so they relied on Trunk's brain. Many possibilities were flowing out of his head when Goku was talking, but finally one stood out. The strategy went perfect. He grabbed Goku's ankles, drop-kicked his jaw, swung him counter-clockwise up into the air, and sent a barrage of guided, yellow beams at him.
Gotenks could really feel the cold drops beating against his face as he closed his eyes. He was feeling for Goku's ki. He was there. Gotenks knew it, but where. He decided to just wait out the dust storm.
Goku had other plans. He masked his ki and snuck up behind Gotenks. One minute. Two minutes. Three minutes. NOW! He launched forward fast enough that Gotenks didn't know what was going on until too late. Goku clasped his opponent's head in both hands. "STUNGUN!" (Goku learned this attack while training with Buu.) This attack allowed Goku to summon up enough non- physical energy. As the energy waves passed through Gotenks head, he began to yawn. Gotenks went limp, or did he.
His hand crooked and pointed at Goku. This was the silent version of Galactic Donut. Goku was helplessly trapped as Gotenks began to slap him. This was used to Goku's advantage. He increased his power level higher than the energy being put into the rings, pulled them off and tossed them at Gotenks. His arms and head were pinned, but his legs weren't. His feet were firing scatter shots all over the place, hoping one would hit.
One did. Gotenks gave a wince as one came skidding across his leg. Now in pain, he began to strategize. Planning to fire more donuts he powered up, only to be sent sprawling back by a scatter shot that caught him in the face. Now extremely agitated, he fired like madman, blue bolts began to surround him as perspiration began to dew up on his face.
Goku used this to his advantage. He angled himself so his arms faced the oncoming blasts that were right in the way. The rings couldn't withstand such power and disintegrated. Goku, now free, began to live up to his sayain heritage. Bulked up and ready to go, but he was shocked as to what happened next.
Gotenks eyes began to film over as a blood curdleing cry was issued throughout the forest. His hair flailed out in different arrays as his eyebrows eventually grew out again. His arms shot out to the sides as they released as they spewed energy like a severed output cable to a nuclear reactor. A blinding white light surrounded every thing, but the sillouette of Gotenks was clearly vivible. The hair began to pull itself in till it went rather limp, yet still as long as a normal super sayain-jin. The eyebrows had turned into nearly a monobrow. However drastic any of these other changes were, the most bizzare was the fact that his hair was silver tinted green, and his aura was swaying and burning a fierce orange. This had to be the SSJ4!
"You are no match, Goku, surrender and you will not be hurt," bellowed Gotenks, "I am way boyond your form." Goku didn't want to believe the fact, so he charged, "Oh well." One kick that nearly pierced Goku's body sent him sprawling up into the air and, thanks to gravity, plummeting into the earth. The white flag was clearly witnessable as he managed to choke out two words. "You win!"
