18 looked around and sighed. She hated being around so many people, especially people she didn't even know. ~Why did I let him talk me in to this?~
Though 18 wasn't showing much enthusiasm, the others were. Vegetto and Bardock were holding onto her hands, skipping and laughing and telling each other how much fun it was going to be. Goku was walking ahead of them, a big smirk on his face. When they got to the check in desk, Goku and 18 put their names on the list and 18 put the boys on the list for the junior division.
"Aunty 18! I want to go show Bardock something real quick."
18 gave them a suspicious look, "I don't think it's a good idea to let you boys go off on your own."
"Aw, let em go 18." Goku grabbed her by the wrist and started dragging her towards the area where they are to take a test to qualify for the tournament, "They'll be fine."
"But Goku!"
"Trust me."
When they were out of sight Bardock turned to Vegetto, "What did you want to show me?"
Vegetto grabbed him and pulled him behind some bushes, "You know that new technique that dad's been teaching us?"
". . .Yeah."
"Well wouldn't it be great if in the adult competition, Bargetto walked out onto the platform?"
Bardock grinned and his eyes widened with excitement, "Yeah!"
They jumped out from behind the bushes and looked around to see if anyone was there. They saw no one so they got into their positions. "Fu!" They stepped towards each other with their arms extended. "Sion!" They swung their arms to the other side and put one knee up across their other leg. "Ha!" They moved into their final pose and touched their index fingers together.
The little man behind the check in desk, looked up as Bargetto approached him. "Name and age please."
"Bargetto, sixteen." His voice was strange and sounded as if two people were talking at once.
The man gave him a suspicious look. He seemed too small to be sixteen but something about him made him seem even older then that, "Alright, please report to-"
"Yeah, yeah I know." He walked off.
"Well." The clerk said, sounding a bit irritated, "Kids these days are so rude."
"Next. And remember, you have to beat 135."
18 stepped up to the punching machine, ignoring the snickering from some of the other contestants behind her. She tapped it lightly with her knuckles.
The man standing next to the machine, looked at the number and his eyes widened, "269!?"
Goku sighed and whispered, "I told you to take it easy on that thing."
18 crossed her arms, "It's harder then it looks."
". . . . .Next."
Goku stepped up to the machine and tapped it with his fist.
"312!?!?!?"
18 looked at him and smirked. He looked at her expression, "Oh shut up 18."
She turned around and started walking away, "I didn't say anything."
Goku followed her, "Yeah but I know what you were thinking."
"Well anyway, let's just go and watch the boys. The youth division is about to start."
"Next. . .90, sorry but you don't qualify. Next."
Bargetto stepped up ~Only a few minutes left, better hurry~ Without thinking, he slammed his fist into the machine causing it to explode. "Oops! Sorry!" He looked at the wide-eyed man whom was holding the list of people who qualified, "Did I make it?" The man nodded slowly. "Alright!" Bargetto ran off. As he was running he suddenly disappeared and Vegetto and Bardock took his place.
"Come on, it's about to start!" Vegetto jumped up into the air and started flying and Bardock followed.
"This is going to be great!" Goku said as he looked down at the ring.
"If you say so."
Goku looked over at 18 who was sitting on the rail that ran across the walkway at the very top of the stadium.
"Geez, lighten up 18, we're here to have fun." He put his hands on the railing and watched as the first two contestants came out and took their places on the platform.
"Yeah, yeah."
The junior division went by quickly, Bardock and Vegetto beating all of their opponents easily until it got down to the last round and the two boys where to face each other.
"Get ready because now we are down to the final round of the youth division!," The announcer shouted, "Bardock vs. Vegetto!" The crowd cheered.
"Alright! I know you can do it Bardock!," Goku shouted.
18 looked at him and smirked. She took one hand off the rail and waved down towards the boys, "You can do it Vegetto!"
Goku looked at her.
She chuckled and shrugged her shoulders, "What?"
"Begin!"
"Are you ready Bardock?"
"Bring it."
Vegetto charged at him then disappeared. He reappeared behind Bardock and thrust his fist towards him but Bardock turned around and grabbed it. He held onto Vegetto's fist then slammed his knee up into his gut. "Ah!" Vegetto cringed. He pulled away from Bardock's grip then slammed his fist into his face. Bardock stumbled back then flew up into the air and Vegetto followed. He stopped in front of Bardock and started punching and kicking at him furiously.
18 Swung her body around and hopped off of the railing. She landed gently on the cement and crossed her arms, "Do you want to go ahead and go down to the waiting area"
"What?!" Goku looked at her, "They aren't even done yet, I want to watch."
18 looked back at the fight, "Vegetto's going to win anyway."
"You don't know that for sure!"
"Oh please. You can't honestly tell me you think Bardock will win. Vegetto is a little older and Gohan gives him rigorous training, day and night. Your boy has grown up in a palace where he spends more time on his education then he does in training."
Goku blinked and silently went back to watching the match.
Vegetto was blocking an onslaught from Bardock. As Bardock went to punch him, Vegetto moved to the side and grabbed Bardock's wrist. He then started flying towards the ground and just as he was a few feet away from it, he threw Bardock down. Bardock closed his eyes and stopped himself in the air, only inches away from the ground. When he opened his eyes he saw a blue ball of ki heading for him and before he could move, it hit him and pushed him down onto the ground.
The announcer ran around the ring and then put his arm up into the air, "Ring out! Vegetto wins!" Vegetto landed on the platform and crossed his arms.
18 started walking away. Goku noticed and started going after her, "Wait up!"
18 looked over her shoulder at him and smirked.
He caught up with her and sighed, "Don't even say it 18."
"I wasn't going to say anything."
He nudged her playfully, "Yeah sure."
