Chapter four: the clock is ticking, the other side

I glared at the sun. He was close, I could feel it. I knew he was near by

I glided over the massacred village. I had helped rebuild it after the first attack. He was going right in for the kill. Knowing just where it would hurt most. It had been a year since I destroyed his sister and still he evaded me

I glanced to my right, feeling a rather large ki, I was surprised, having never felt it before. I narrowed my eyes and headed towards it, the last thing this planet needed was another bad guy

I glided through low hanging clouds. There was nothing but plains and brown out here.

I could still feel that power, it was perhaps equal to myself when I was resting.

I suddenly looked down at two specs

What I found was a petite woman with wild black hair, busy fighting some one.

And that some one happened to be android seventeen.

I blasted towards them, praying I would be able to save the girl in time.



I suddenly stopped. She was on the ground curled into a ball, and he was bending over her. After a second he offered his hand and helped her up. I blinked in surprise. Then he started showing her the move he had used in slow motion until she figured out how to block it.

Then they squared off again.

I had learned a long time ago how to cloak my power so it would fool the androids' sensors, so I remained undetected.

I didn't know why I didn't just kill him now, I knew I could, he did not know I was there, a single blast would take his head off.

Actually I did know why.

I wanted to know why he was being so gentle with this woman. I couldn't see her all that well through the tangled mane of wild hair. It was long but also stuck out at different angles. She was dressed in clumsily made gi, the cloth looked like animal skin of some sort. She looked something like a native american. Except there were none left. The entire race had been wiped out at one point, with possibly a few "half breeds" as my father had called anyone who was not of one race alone.

I watched as he attacked her again. This time she kept up with him. Eventually catching him in a strangle hold them flipping him over. Then she lifted him off the ground by the belt and the scruff of the neck.

She jumped into the air and raised him above her head.

With a thundering crash they both went flying into the ground.

I squinted as chunks of rock came flying and a cloud of dust flew up and around the now invisible pair.

When the dust cleared she was standing holding what looked like a Katana in her left hand. And android seventeen was on one knee with his back to her. I realized he was tying up his boot lace

Using the distraction, I charged
