…Of Battle
"Immediate simplicity
Can disguise difficulty…"
Frieza hissed and fired a blast at her. She smirked. He should have powered up. She deflected the blast with a careless flick of her wrist, then looked up at Frieza. "Aim next time and you might stand of chance of burning my fingertips," she taunted.
A growl this time. Frieza was getting pissed off. He gathered a bigger ball of energy and threw it at her. This time, she dodged. "Now what did I just tell you about aiming?" she lectured. It was fun to piss Frieza off, and it wasn't like he could get within fifty feet of her anyway. She may as well have some fun, if she couldn't have a good battle.
Frieza's face was beginning to get red. "You little bitch!!" he shouted. "If I can't destroy you, I'll destroy the whole damn planet!!" A large ball of glowing red energy began to form in his hand.
She smirked as he threw the ball. She caught it effortlessly. "I think you dropped something!" she called. She threw it back at him with such force and speed, he never had a chance. He was obliterated before he could even scream. "Your turn," she said in an almost singsong voice at King Cold, Frieza's father. She pulled out her sword; it made a steely hiss as it came out of its scabbard. It sounded almost angry. King Cold backed away.
"Y-y-you can't hurt me! I'm invincible!" He tried with all his might to look unafraid.
"Watch me. You killed my family, King Cold, and my planet, and with them, you killed me. You won't get away with it." Her voice was deadly quiet. A flash of the sword in the sunlight and a bright flash of hot light, and Cold was gone. She slid the sword back into its sheath and turned toward the crowd of Z fighters that had gathered on a plateau nearby. She said nothing, but one of them, a short man with a head of black hair that looked like an oversized candle flame, called to her.
"You! How can you transform into a Super Saiya-jin!?" He seemed angry. She didn't want to shout, so she motioned for them to come down to her. The short man with the candle hair came first, followed by the others. Last was another short man with no hair at all.
She took mental inventory; she knew what all of the Z fighters looked like because she had often watched them fight. The one with the candle flame hair was Vegeta; the other short one was Krillin. The one with three eyes was Tien, and the couple-the blue-haired woman and the tall man with short black hair and a weak power level- were Bulma and Yamcha. The green alien was Piccolo; the child was Gohan. The clown-looking one was Choutzou.(spelling?) The one called Goku wasn't there. He must be the one I felt Frieza passing earlier, she mused. She had a lot of respect for the Saiya-jin man. He was relatively strong, though against her now she doubted he'd last longer than a few hours, and against her at her maximum, he wouldn't last more than five minutes, if that.
"Who the hell are you, girl?" Vegeta all but yelled at her, breaking her thoughts. "How can you go Super Saiya-jin? Kakarott and I are the only Saiya-jins left, and his brat-" he motioned to Gohan-"is half Saiya-jin!"
"As am I. Call me Iya Tamashii. You don't need to know anything else." She didn't really want to tell them anything else. It really wasn't any of their business.
"What kind of a name is 'No Soul?'"
"Mine. If you don't like it, just call me Tamashii." He was truly pissing her off. She didn't need his criticism. It was her name, or at least the one she went by. It wasn't her real one, but only she and a very few people that she'd met knew that name. She hadn't wanted to tell him anything in the first place.
"Not much better," he grumbled, but shut up. He wasn't going to get anything else out of her, and he could recognize a losing battle when he saw one, though he didn't like to admit that he could lose a battle.
"Goku is coming. I know where he'll land. Come if you want; I'm going now." She lifted off into the sky.
Gohan was the first to come, followed by the others.
The young boy quickly caught up with her, mainly because she wasn't flying very fast. She had two hours to kill; no need to overdo it. "Uh…Miss, how do you know where my dad will land?" The boy asked timidly.
She smiled softly, a very faint smile, but it was there. "I was tracking Frieza from outer space. I felt it when he passed your dad, because your dad is also very powerful. He should be here in two hours; his ship travels slower than Frieza's."
"Oh." Gohan smiled up at her. He was going to see his dad again! Wouldn't his mom be surprised! He noticed right way that she was not one to waist words. She said what she needed to say in as few words as possible. When she added an explanation, it was short and to the point. He wondered how she had gotten her power. She was amazingly strong. Maybe she would train him! If his mom would let her, which he doubted she would. Oh well. His dad might, as long as they didn't tell his mother. If he could see his dad, nothing else would matter anyway.

AN: Not the best, the first one was better, but I'm hoping the next one will be even better. Again, review please, so that I'll know whether or not to continue. Also, I plan on putting up a glossary of Japanese words that I use so that everyone will know what I'm taking about. Ja ne!
