"...My goal was simple...kill the one who caused me so much pain, kill the one who caused the death of billions...kill the one named Son Goku."

---

Mirai Gohan finished his speech. Goku was left in complete awe. Suddenly, he felt remorse for everything he did and will do. But one thought continued to run through his mind...it wasn't his fault. He didn't know-he couldn't know! And he intended to tell his son that.

"Gohan...how was I to know? You never told me you didn't want to go...and you cannot blame me what has not already been done yet. Don't you remember? How {Mirai} Trunks was able to change history just by coming back in time? Killing me will do you no good," the Saiya-jin said, as calm as he could.

"What would you know!?" Mirai Gohan cried. It was obvious he was fighting back tears.

'It must have been tough reliving those memories...' Goku thought.

Mirai Gohan took a deep breath. He allowed his eyes to wander to the floor for a short time.

"Son..." his father called. He reached out to Mirai Gohan. He allowed his tears to fall freely. He looked up to see Goku offering his hand in friendship. Mirai Gohan knocked it away.

"I need no remorse from you!" he yelled. "Killing you will give my soul the satisfaction it needs!"

With those words, Mirai Gohan began powering up once again. His aura engulfed him violently. All of his anger was being turned into raw energy. It was a spectacle Goku recognized instantly-it was the same aura he had seen when Gohan unleashed his power against Cell. The blood-freezing scream could be heard miles away. The air itself seemed to cower in the wake of the Ascended Super Saiya-jin's wrath. Piccolo's near-lifeless body shook. On the Earth, gigantic tsunamis formed. Bolts of lightning struck ferociously, pools of lava erupted in the middle of urban streets. The towers of man began to collapse. Yet the maker of this power continued to yell, oblivious to the destruction he was causing. All he was focusing on was his rage, and the pure power flowing freely through his veins. He was a true Saiya-jin, relying on his instincts now. Goku could have sworn that, for just a moment, Mirai Gohan's eyebrows had disappeared. But perhaps it was a figment of his imagination.

---

Vegeta stopped completely when he heard the yell. Then he felt the power...it seamed to be screaming with Mirai Gohan. Sweat dripped down the Saiya-jin Prince's neck.

'His power...it's unreal! It's double the power he had against Cell...unbelievable! Compared to him, Kakarot's power looks like that of a child!' Vegeta thought. However, the blood in his veins urged him on, and he was happy to oblige.

'Not only will I see Kakarot's ass get whipped by his own half-bred son, but I will also get to have a good fight!'

---

As soon as the spectacle ended, the immense power that Mirai Gohan had been radiating began to fade. If Goku hadn't known better, he could've sworn that Mirai Gohan's power had just been halved. Even so, he knew he wouldn't stand a chance.

"What will you do after you kill me?" the Super Saiya-jin asked. Mirai Gohan just continued to stare at him. After what seamed to be ages, he spoke.

"I'll destroy this sorry excuse for a planet as well. No longer is it my home. No...my home was destroyed three years ago. Although I can not make them feel the pain I endured, I can make them feel a different pain...the pain of death!" With that, he took his fighting stance. Goku shook his head.

"Then I must stop you." He declared, dropping into his own fighting stance.

---

Tienshinhan looked up to the sky.

"What's wrong Tien?" the young emperor asked.

"I felt this large outburst of power from Sky Palace...then it faded. I must see what it is."

The warrior flew off towards Sky Palace, knowing that even if he was outmatched, he would not go down without a fight.

---

"Krillin, are you insane!" the aged martial arts teacher yelled.

"Sorry Master Roshi...but I must go. The Earth needs me!" the bald fighter cried.

"Krillin, you know full well you don't stand a chance! I forbid you from going!"

"I don't care! I can try, can't I? I'll go anyway! I don't have time to listen to an old pervert like you." With that, he flew off.

"Hey! I resent that comment!"

"He's right though." Master Roshi kicked the turtle into the water.

"Eh...what do you know!?" he yelled.

---

A bright flash illuminated the sky as the Super Saiya-jin fell. He struggled to get up, knowing that this level was useless to him.

"Had enough?" his opponent cried out to him. He looked disappointed. "The Namek fared better than you!"

Goku smiled. "I'm just getting started!"

With those words, Goku shot into the sky until he was level with Mirai Gohan. He clenched his fists and recalled a memory that brought him great anger. He tensed every muscle in his body.

"I am NOT going to let you destroy the Earth!" Goku yelled. His hair's length grew slightly and began to stick straight up. The Super Saiya-jin's muscles bulged slightly, and his hair darkened to a dark gold. Blue bolts lashed out from him, and his power increased exponentially. Mirai Gohan smiled.

"Good...I expected no less."

The two Ascended Super Saiya-jins faced each other. Then Mirai Gohan wrapped his left hand around his right wrist, bringing both to his forehead. His energy moved to his hands, forming an ever-growing transparent ball of golden energy. Sparks of energy encircled the ball formed of Ki. Bringing his arms forward, the gigantic golden ball became solid and raced towards Goku, trailed by a brilliant beam of energy.

"MASENKO-HA!!!" Mirai Gohan screamed as the Ki attack neared Goku.

Calmly, Goku cupped his fists and joined them together at his palms. Electricity between them confirmed their connection. Energy began swirling around the two hands, until they began to form a ball. Goku slowly brought his arms to his right side. Quietly he began the technique.

"Ka...me...ha...me..." With each word, the ball of blue energy doubled in size. Then, with one thrust, he brought his arms forward, the ball of energy at its greatest size, screaming:

"HAAAAAAA!"

~~~~~~~~~~

A clash of the titans! Can Goku's Kamehameha wave overwhelm Mirai Gohan, or will the future warrior's Masenko attack seal the universe's fate? You'll have to wait for the next chapter!

***********

Next Chapter-

The two energy beams collide, and the Earth is almost torn apart by their power. But is that spectacle of power just a glimpse of what the two warriors have in store for each other? The two Ascended Super Saiya-jins continue their battle, oblivious to what is around them. Even as another fighter approaches...
