They had been walking for 10 minutes when they came up to it, the upper
story had caved in, blocking their way. They had been hearing haunting
sounds of bending steel, structures collapsing, and explotions ever since
Goku woke-up. In fact, Vegeta was even hearing it down in the shafts. But
here, the sounds were stronger. They had to be closer to the surface.
The obstruction in front of them consisted of masses of steel beams, cables, piping, among other things. Water was also running at a fair rate from the top of the obstruction. The hallway they were in no longer had that eerie webbing, but instead had plain concrete walls and floors. It was lit red with some kind of emergency lighting. The power must have been severed from this area.
Vegeta turned to Goku. "Got any ideas?"
"Naw", Goku said, still inspecting the obstruction with a look of bewilderment.
Vegeta turned around, bit his lips, and shook his head. He then started looking around in the dim light for an alternative.
"Well, we can't blast through coz of that generator...Maybe if we..."
"Shut up a second." Vegeta grunted. He found what he was looking for. A vent, similar to the he crawled up in. It was on the ceiling, about 15 yards in front of him. He flew up to it and took out the
grate the covered the opening. He easied up into it. All he saw was darkness, then movement, directly in front of him. Then something hit his head. He imeadiately fell and landed on his hip. Blood was pouring from the upper part of his head. Goku saw this and reacted imediately. He threw several ki blasts in the vasinity of the opening. Vegeta wiped the blood from his eyes and looked up at the vent. He saw crumbling ceiling falling toward him. He then felt his colar being grabbed and him being pulled away from the downfall. Sounds of crashing and crumbling were all he could hear for a moment. Then dust enveloped them. Both Vegeta and Goku began coughing. Both combatants were covered in grey, and the patch of blood on Vegeta's head had turned black from the sut.
The dust then began to settle.
"You *ack* idiot!!"
"What else *cough* could I do?"
"You could have blown up the whole planet!"
Goku saw it first as a demon sprang from the ruble at Vegeta. Goku jumped infront of Vegeta and snapped a kick into it's sternum. As it flew back, Goku pitched a ki blast at it like a baseball. The blast went straight through the demon and into the ruble. When the demon landed, it went limp.
Goku just stood there, stareing at the demon with a look of anger. This was the first time he really had a chance to see a demon. From what he saw, he didn't like. It was like nothing he had ever seen before, except in nightmares. Vegeta slowly got up.
"Don't do that again."
Goku turned around. "How's your head?"
"Fucken fine. Now would you shut-up for a second, I have a head ache," Vegeta said out of spite.
He then looked at the new obstruction. It left the ceiling open now, but the way back blocked.
"Goku, go check that out up there. I'll be up in a minute"
Goku nodded and ascended into the new room. It was dark, almost pitch black if it wasn't for the faint red light coming from the whole in the floor.
"Hey Vegeta, did you say you had a flashlight?"
Without an answer, one was tossed up to him. Goku turned it on and panned it around slowly. From what he could make out, he saw sinks, urinals, and toilets. He guessed that the design for public bathrooms was universal.
"It's ok, come on up,' he announced.
As Vegeta came up, Goku panned across a dead body, a human dead body. He looked like some sort of security gaurd by the looks of his uniform. It was up against the corner, sitting down, with a large amount of blood on the wall behind his head. There was a pistol loosely gripped in his left hand. Vegeta shook his head and went for the door out. Goku stared at the body for a bit. Several feelings came through him: remorse, pity, saddness, and fear. He soon fallowed Vegeta.
Outside of the bathroom was a hallway with the same design as the one below it, running perpendicular to the one below. To their right was the same blocked path as the hallway below. However, to their left, the hallway stretched from red light into darkness. With out speaking, both started into uncertanty.
At the end of the hall, the ran into double doors with a sign.
"Cells 200-299 -----
Elevators -----
Securuty Station F -----
Generator Room -----
Janitorial Room -----
Swimming Pool -----
Rec Room -----"
They went through the doors and turned right.
