Forbidden Love

Cinnamon, it definitely will be a Gohan/Bulma fic; I just usually write things that are pointless to the story, at least according to my English teacher.  Don't worry though; I didn't take any offense from your comment at all.  You were just expressing your opinions and thoughts.  Oh yeah, watch for OOCness in Pikkon because I have no idea how he would act.

            Gohan grinned at his next opponent, Pikkon.  Stepping onto the ring, he thought, Hmm…  I can tell that this guy, assuming that its race even has females, is very powerful.  I know that he is hiding his true strength, but I'm pretty sure that I can handle it if I go SSJ I'd better test him out first though.

Grand Kai said, "Okay, Gohan, Pikkon, take your places in the ring, and fight!"

Gohan immediately launched himself at Pikkon and tried to punch him in the gut, but Pikkon was too fast.  Pikkon, who had flown above Gohan, countered with an elbow to the back, but also missed.  The two warriors then launched into an all-out brawl, but it was apparent that Gohan was winning to anyone that could manage to see or sense them.

Gohan kneed Pikkon in the gut and kamehameha!-ed Pikkon into the ring.  The demi-saiya-jin descended onto the floor.  "Come on, Pikkon!  I know that you aren't using your full power, and you know that you can't win at your current state of power.  I want something that's even close to a challenge in this tournament!"

Pikkon smirked.  Fine, if this kid wants a challenge, then I'll give him a challenge.  "Fine!  You asked for it, though!  Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Pikkon removed his weighted clothing and consumed his body in his own strength.

A sharp jolt of energy flashed through Gohan's mind.  Ah!  What is this!?  This guy is much stronger than I had originally anticipated.  He might even be as strong as I am as a SSJ2.  I'd better just go straight to my full power.  "Well Pikkon, you're stronger than I first thought.  Unfortunately, you're not strong enough.  Haaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!"  Gohan erupted in strength, his muscles bulging and his hair gold and spiky.

Pikkon and Gohan shot themselves at each other with blinding speed.  The two warriors flurried punches, kicks, and elbows, all of them blocked.  Finally Gohan got Pikkon with a super-powered punch to the abdomen.  With Pikkon recovering from the attack, Gohan flew straight up into the air and fired a Masenko at his opponent.

Pikkon ignored his aching body and countered the blast with a move of his own called a Pasensi.  A green blast of ki fired itself from his hand and headed straight for the yellow Masenko.  With Gohan distracted by his own beam, Pikkon finished his attack.  Thousands of small balls of energy emerged from the Pasensi, each green with a tinge of blue.  The spheres surrounded Gohan, who was too focused on maintaining his attack to notice, and created a bubble around him.

Gohan, finally noticed the green dome, but continued his blast anyway, thinking that it was easily strong enough to make a hole in it.  Unfortunately for him, the Masenko just bounced around in the limited space until it finally hit him and broke his arm.

Pikkon had split himself into three different entities using the split-form technique, and had surrounded Gohan on three sides.   Each of the Pikkons did this queer dance and threw an extremely powerful blast at Gohan: the Inferno Thunder Storm (I can't remember what it's called in English, let alone in Japanese.).  The amazing thing about this blast was that it ignored any and all ki shields and any other ki attacks.

Gohan, being unable to move, was caught in the middle of all three blasts, thus fell to the ring and suffered suffered great injury.  His left arm had been disintegrated, his right leg paralyzed, and there was a huge gash across his eye.  Also, Gohan's gi had been nearly completely vapourized, the only remaining part of it being around his groin (Just so that I can continue posting this as PG-13.).  The worst part of it all, though, was the fact that the green bubble was still encasing Gohan.

Pikkon finally decided to end the match.  He slowly made his hand into a fist and the sphere, following the hand's command, slowly crumpled until it slowly imploded with Gohan still inside.

The implosion created a gigantic hole in the ring, not to mention the huge dust cloud, with just the four corners and narrow pathways in the sides to stand on (Imagine a large circle in a slightly larger square.).  Pikkon, thinking that he had won, stood silently on the corner closest to the Grand Kai's throne.

As the dust cleared, however, it became apparent that Pikkon had not won at all.  There floated an extremely badly injured, fully powered-up, very pissed-off Gohan with a deep scowl on his face. Gohan charged straight at Pikkon, ready to punch with his remaining hand.  Pikkon quickly got himself into a sloppy defensive position that reduced his mobility greatly.  Big mistake.  Gohan gained speed and seemingly teleported himself behind Pikkon.  He made a small, but strong, ki ball in his hand and threw it at Pikkon's back.  He did this again.  And again.  And about a hundred more times.

Pikkon sailed through the air, about to brace himself to land on the remaining ring, but he wasn't able to do that.  Over the middle of the giant hole, Gohan doubled back to where the green alien was flying through the air and kicked him in the back with enough force to kill 1 000 000 Mr. Satans.  Now, in the middle of the crater, there was also a very, very, very, deep Pikkon-shaped hole.  Pikkon slowly rose from the hole, while Gohan's hair and eyes turned back to their normal colourless hue.

"Well, the winner, in this exciting, suspenseful match is Gohan!  He will go on to the finals to fight his own father, who advanced by default because the competitor got scared and forfeit."  The Grand Kai paused for a moment.  "The next match will be in about a day because Gohan and the ring need to be fixed.  "Farewell for now!"

I'm so very sorry for the long wait, and the really short chapter!  I was experiencing a weird mix between writer's block, busy schedule, school, social life, exhaustion, and an excess of estrogen.  I hope you're happy though.  It's 1:56AM (PST).  I'll try to update quicker next time.  Good night, good morning, good afternoon, and good evening to you all.
