Ear Piercing Siren

***************************

Gohan stood in the center of a power-sensing sphere.  Trying to keep his power on a low steady rise, while making it seem like he was reaching his limit.  He let his arms flex, and expand the muscle shirt he was wearing, balling his hands into tight fists.  That bastard thinks I'm weak huh?  I'll fucken show him!

Nancy glanced back and for the between the monitor, and the window to Gohan.  "Ki reading four hundred thousand and rising."  She took a quick glance at Souren, to see his mouth slowly begin to fall open.  Nancy let a slight smile curl the corner of her mouth, and glanced in to see how Gohan was doing, and nearly dropped her own jaw.  Gohan stood in the center of the room, his head and back curled back, arching his chest into the air, there were white tendrils of Ki resonating around him, shooting out now and again to flick against the sphere wall, almost as if it was searching for a weak spot.  Nancy's eyes went round as she took in this site, his arms flexed, showing extremely large well-defined muscles for such a young age.  His shirt flapping against him, like a shrill breeze was blowing past him, revealing as well defined abs as his biceps.  Oh my…he's, he's much better looking than I first thought…Nancy zoned out for a few seconds, until she felt a tremor rock her feet, she glanced at the monitor hurriedly.  "Oh my god, Souren, look at this!"  Nancy pointed at the screen, as it continued to shoot up.  "Seven hundred fifty, seven eighty, eight hundred thousand!  I don't believe it Souren; he's as strong as you!"  Nancy's voice reached a slight shriek, she couldn't believe that Gohan was that powerful.

"What!?  Impossible!  This thing must be broken!  No damn alien brat could have a power level even close to mine!"  Souren was an extremely pampered man, and being the best on the planet defiantly had it's advantages, and now out of the blue some brat kid shows up and threatens all he's ever known.  I don't believe it!  I will always be the strongest on this planet! 

Inside the sphere Gohan was busy trying to keep his level low, when he heard Souren's shouts on the outside, accusing Gohan of being weak, and not really being powerful at all.  That bastard still doesn't believe that I'm powerful!?  I'm standing here in they're god damn Ki sensing room, and he still doesn't believe that I'm powerful!?  Damn him! Gohan's power started to radically rise, instantly destroying the Ki monitoring machine, Nancy and Souren were forced back by the sparks emitting from the broken device.  There attention quickly turned else where, as they saw bright golden beams breaking through cracks in the sphere, they could see the sphere begin to expand, like to much air was being pumped into a balloon, it exploded, sending shrapnel flying all across the room, a big piece whizzing by the two, nearly taking off Souren's head.  The two had to duck down, as intense winds blew past them so hard, that heavy equipment started to fly around.  But as soon as it started it stopped.  Souren got up off the floor and looked around, trying to figure out what had happened.  What in gods name happened here!?  I remember that kid powering up, and then…that kid!  Souren turned his gaze to where the sphere had been, and nearly fell to the ground again.  In the center of the ruble was Gohan, he was completely powered down, and he was slowly walking towards the two. 

Gohan walked up to Souren, and looked up at him.  Gohan being a good two feet shorter and a lot less muscular than him, looked outmatched in every way.

"I heard what you said about me Souren, and I didn't like it."  Gohan's face was shrouded in anger; he was clenching and unclenching his fists at his side, trying to attack this weakling. 

Souren gaped at the kid in front of him, then his superior attitude set in.  This is a weak alien kid, who thinks he's hot stuff because the control panel on the side of the sphere shorted out, and blew it open for him.  And he dares to talk to me, the most powerful warrior on the planet, no the galaxy, like I was inferior to him.  Souren crossed his arms, and stared down at Gohan.  "Yeah?  And what are you going to do about it weakling?" 

Gohan tensed at Souren's words, he looked down, his body quaking with anger.  "I'm going to tell you to shut the hell up before I make you shut up."  Gohan kept his head down, afraid of what he'd do if he looked up right now.

Nancy meanwhile had dragged herself out from under a mound of rubble, and just caught the exchange between the two.  There is no way in hell I'm going to let them fight!  She ran over and placed herself between the two, with her back to Gohan, and her arms out.  "You two stop it now!  You just met, and you want to tear each other apart for no reason.  I won't allow it!"  Nancy took a step back, and crossed her arms as she starred at the two.  "Do you two understand?" 

Gohan and Souren exchanged glances.  But neither of them was ready to stop just yet.  Souren pushed Nancy out of the way and brought his face near Gohan's, while he shoved his thumb into his chest.  "You listen here boy!  I am the most powerful warrior on this planet, and you will respect me as such, do you understand!?" 

Gohan lowered his head again.  While Souren stood back up straight, and laughed at him.

"Good boy, you don't want to mess with me, I will tear you up like paper!   And then I'd go to where ever you came from and do the same to your family!"  Souren tilted his head back and laughed again.

Gohan mean while was slipping over the edge, his vision turned blood red, and his arms started to twitch.  What did he say?  What did he say!?  I'll kill him!!  Gohan slowly brought his head up to look at Souren's laughing form.  Immediately Nancy saw the murderous look in his eyes.  She lunged to set herself in-between them again, but she was far too slow.  Gohan jumped forward, and brought his fist crashing into Souren's head.  Souren flew back spitting blood out of his mouth as he bounced off the floor.  Before Nancy could even blink Gohan was gone, already in front of Souren, right when the five class warrior reached him, he drew back his leg, and kicked him straight up into the air.  He disappeared again; reappearing above Souren with his hands clenched together raised high above his head.  Gohan brought his fists crashing down into Souren's air born form, sending it sprawling down to the floor, smashing into the ground, creating a huge crater, sending workout equipment flying everywhere.

Nancy looked on in horror, it only took moments, but it seemed like it took forever for Souren to crash into the floor.  She rushed forward to his crumpled form, and started to cry at the condition he was in.  What…what happened?  Why did Gohan do this to him?  Why!?  Nancy held her boyfriend close to her, crying as she thought he was lost to her forever.  She let out a shriek of joy as she felt him try and move her off of him. 

"What are you blubbering about Nancy…I'm not going to die on you that easily, especially to that punk kid.  But, I think I need some medical attention now…" Souren promptly passed out.  Nancy couldn't believe what was going on.  But the only thing on her mind now was getting her Souren healthy again.

Meanwhile Gohan hovered high in the air, watching on as his vision slowly started to clear, his muscles started to unclench, and the mind numbing hate that filled him started to leave him.  What…have I done?  Gohan floated down slowly and landed off a bit from the two.  Nancy looked up startled at him, completely forgetting he was still there. 

Nancy's immediate feeling was to scream to get that brute kid away from the one he hurt so bad, but she really knew that it wasn't totally his fault, and that he was probably the best shot that Souren had to live.  "Gohan…if you help take him to the hospital now…I promise to forgive you for what you've done."  Gohan didn't say a word, the pain, and sorrow was welling in him now, almost as strong, and over powering as the anger and the hate had been.  He walked over to them, pulled Souren over his back, and picked up Nancy, and flew out one of the many sun holes in the roof.  He quickly brought them back to the hospital, where Nancy immediately took off with Souren to the ER.  There was so much commotion over the planets most powerful warrior being hurt, that they didn't notice Gohan slipping back outside and blasting off.

Gohan flew aimlessly.  Just flying in the alien sky, blue like home, but not the same.  Starring down at lush forests, filled with many animals like home, but not the same.  Nothing would ever be home for Gohan now, his home was destroyed, and this alien planet, was nothing compared to what he wanted.  What is wrong with me?  Why did I attack that idiot, why did I beat him nearly to death, when I knew the whole time he was nothing compared to my strength?  Gohan let his tears flow freely down his face as he flew over a vast ocean, the only ocean on this planet.  He wasn't crying for what he did, he was crying because right now, more than ever he realized how alone he truly was.  He would never be able to joke with krilin again; he would never be able to look upon piccolo with worship in his eyes.  He would never be able to hug his mom, and listen to how much she loved him, like she told him every night before he went to bed.  And above all he would never be able to be with his dad again.  He would never be able to make his father proud, for he, was a failure.  A failure doomed to live his life in pain, and be reminded of his failure every second of his life, because every second he was not on earth, is one second more that reminds him of his past.  Gohan now flew over huge mountains, with snowcaps on them, jutting high into the sky, giving the illusion of cutting the clouds.  Gohan landed on one of the shorter ones, near the base where the vegetation started to appear around the rocky enclave.  "What am I going to do…what am I going to become?"  Gohan asked his question to the world, already knowing he would receive no answer.  He sat down on the hard rocky ground, and began to weep bitterly into his arms.

Gohan awoke; he got up with a start at not recognizing his surroundings.  He looked around wildly, not understanding why he was in the middle of the mountain rages, until it all came back to him.  He brought his arm up to his face and wiped off the tears, and mud from his brow.  "I…I guess I fell asleep.  But I wonder what woke me up."  Gohan looked around quizzically, he had the odd feeling that he did not wake because he wanted to.  Then he heard it again, the ear piercing pounding siren.  It filled the quite countryside with it's eerie sound, making Gohan clasp his hands over his ears.  Gohan took off into the sky, with his arms still firmly held to his ears.  He flew high straight up, but the sound did not diminish, Gohan looked around, trying to decipher where the sound was coming from.  And right when Gohan had pinpointed the origin of the sound, it started to fade again.  What in gods name was that?  And why was it coming from the city?  Gohan looked in the direction the sound had come from, and after debating with him self, he decided he had better go check it out, just for curiosities sake.  Gohan blasted off towards the city, determined to find out the origin of the weird siren.  Well whatever it was, I'll find out soon enough.
