Yes! Second chappy and still going! This is like, my number one accomplishment. (That's pretty pathetic isn't it? No need to answer, it was rhetorical)

Chapter two; Arise Dragon!

Syaka ran toward me in a charge, and then sprung up into the air. He fell back the Earth right in front of me and swung out his right leg. I jumped, avoiding falling to the dust then ducked to a right punch.

He jabbed and swung in a desperate attempt to strike me.

"FIRE BLAST!" He cried out, his hands in front of the other.

A swirl of fire came right at my body, closing in quick.

"WATER DRAGON!" I shouted as a tunnel of water sprung from my own power.

Most of his fire blast had been extinguished, but still some fire still came from the sides of my water blast and, before I knew it, hit my bare stomach.

I clenched my teeth from giving into my immense pain and crying out. The burns weren't severe and I could probably heal them later, but I would not show him any weaknesses, EVER!

"You've gotten better." I said to him calmly, hiding my pain and anger.

"You're not so bad yourself." He replied.

He seemed equally as calm, but as I looked closer, I saw he was sweating badly. And was it just me, or was he trembling? I couldn't believe it, he was afraid! He hid it well though, because his next attack came quickly.

"FIRE ERUPTION!" He yelled as I felt the earth shake.

This attack had been used on me before as a training program back in Silver Acres and I knew exactly what it was and how to avoid it. Just as I sprung into the air, the pillar of fire burst from the ground I had been standing on.

Now I knew why he was afraid! Fire must be the only magic he knew (and he didn't control it very well either.)!

I landed in a crouch and looked around. Now where had gone?

Through the burns, I could still stand tall, Syaka, on the other hand was leaning against the rock wall for support. He thought he was well hidden, but it was just too easy to predict him!

I raised both hands to the air, "You amateur! How dare you think you are worth to battle me! You hardly know the meaning of magic and now you hide?! I will make you pay for wasting my time and energy and end this petty duel here and now!" I yelled to him.

I closed my eyes and, despite the cloudless sky, it began to grow dark at midday. Huge black clouds rolled inward, obeying my every command. Soon the entire sky was covered in a dark fog and the thunder grew louder.

Suddenly, a single bolt of blue lightning sprang out of the sky and struck me head on. I absorbed every particle of the pure energy letting it flow through my body. It lifted my hair and swirled around my slim figure. I floated a few inches above the ground from the pure energy and felt my eyes burn a bright blue from the enormous power.

I opened my eyes, knowing they were covered in light blue energy, then mentally ordered another bolt to strike. A strip of red light burst from the sky as Syaka only watched in dead amazement. The negative energy hit his chest hard and he fell to the ground in a broken pile.

I let my arms fall to my sides, sending the storm away, but blue lightning still surrounded me. I lifted my right hand and the dragonballs were immediately at my side. With a few swift movements they were in the proper position.

"ARISE DRAGON!" I shouted.

I had heard things about the eternal dragon, but when he sprung into the air, it was hard to believe something that enormous came from something so tiny. In this new form though, I was fearless, inside and out.

"WHAT IS YOUR WISH?" he asked in a deep voice.

"I wish all my riches and every valuable possession to go to Doctor Comoto of Silver Acres."

At first he only looked at me, but then his eyes turned a ruby red.

"IT IS DONE." He responded. "AND YOUR SECOND DESIRE?"

"I wish...."
