Disclaimer: Oh come on! Do I really?
In response to Public Mayhem, I understand your feelings, but I want to set the record straight. I did not lower the Z fighter's power levels, nor did I raise the Street Fighters. I thought a lot about this (seriously) and it has occurred to me that if they wanted to, a Street Fighter has enough energy and power to destroy a planet. Like the Z fighters, all they have to do is concentrate their energy to do so. But due to their various styles and arts, it is not thought of, nor is it necessary in their fights. Also, you much remember that DBZ is a cartoon whereas SF is a videogame. If the roles were reverse, you'd more than likely see a SF destroy a planet and move on. Also, SF has more skills than DBZ, so in truth they are pretty even, more or less. Besides, I wouldn't make a match unless either side had a chance at victory. I'm glad that you told me though. Most people would have used a lame excuse like: The Z fighters can fly and the Street Fighters can't. As I said, lame. I have other explanations, but not here. If you want, just e-mail me and I talk that way.
Now on with the fic.
Chap. 8
The minute the fight began Vega leapt high into the air and dove in on Gohan. Gohan sidestepped and Vega bounced off the ground without a sound and slashed out. Gohan ducked and Vega missed him, but flew back at him again. Gohan was repeatedly dodging, ducking and avoiding all of Vega's attacks. But Gohan slipped and Vega capitalized, slashing Gohan in the back and tearing his gi. Gohan twirled around but Vega was in the air. Gohan saw him dive at him and suddenly zanzokened. Vega's eyes widened as he landed on the ground, looking around for Gohan.
"Hey. Behind you."
Gohan stood right behind Vega. On impulse, Vega slashed back and Gohan ducked it and smashed his fist into Vega's face. The mask shattered and Vega's face was exposed. Vega covered his face.
"Noooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!"
Gohan looked at him strangely. From what he saw, nothing was wrong with Vega's face aside from a thin scar that ran across it. Vega shrieked and lunged at Gohan, madness clear on his face. Seeing the man's insanity, Gohan decided to end it quickly by ducking again and sending a direct blow into Vega's gut. The shock caused him to moan in pain and Vega backed away, clenching his stomach for awhile before passing out.
"Perfect Victory. Winner Gohan."
Gohan looked at his fallen opponent and walked away. The monorail closed and took off.
Meanwhile.
Chun-Li and #18 were still battling fiercely. It appears as though both women were equal in strength, speed and power. As their fight raged on, their energy began to manifest in shockwaves that shook the area. The people in the monorails only watched in shock.
Monorail 1....
Videl was brought inside the rail, now conscious, but could hardly move because of her injuries.
"Whoa. Do you guys feel that energy?"
Choazu nodded, "Yeah. #18 and Chun-Li are really bringing it on out there."
Yamcha smirked "That's my type of chick. Beauty and power. I wonder if she's available."
Monorail 2....
Ryu sneezed a little as he watched the fight. Sakura was also awake now and in the same shape as Videl. She was speechless as she watched the fight.
Cammy commented, "Chun-Li is really pouring it on out there."
"Yeah. I don't think I've seen her fight this hard in a while." Ken agreed.
Monorail 3....
Kairi suggested, "They appear to be equal, both in speed and technique."
Sean nodded, "Yeah. #18 must be a real fighter to put Chun-Li through that must trouble."
A sudden explosion of energy caught their attention. In the air #18 was firing several rapid-fire energy blasts at her opponent. Chun-Li managed to dodge and weave her way though a few of the blasts, but one of them hit her leg and she fell down. Seizing the opportunity, #18 fired a concentrated shot which blew up the area. Smoke and dust shot up and covered the area and #18 couldn't see if she hit Chun-Li or not. Then a slight glow formed out of the smoke.
"Hazan Tenshokyaku!"
Chun-Li sprung out of the smoke, legs spinning upward with charged energy. #18 defended herself against the powerful blows, backing her up into the air. Now enraged, #18 grabbed Chun-Li before she could fall back to the earth and spun her around like a top before letting go and sending her soaring through the air. Not finished, #18 zanzokened and reappeared behind a still soaring Chun-Li, slowly turned around and roundhouse kicked her straight into the ground. Chun-Li braced herself and barely managed a not- so-soft landing. #18 reappeared behind her, but Chun-Li acted first, sending an overhead kick right into #18 face. #18 was stunned briefly and Chun-Li followed up with a double palm, pushing her back further. Chun-Li then jumped and her leg became a blur of motion. However, #18 merely deflected each and every kick.
Monorail 3
Sakura was amazed, "Whoa, did you guys see that?"
Kairi answer, his voice neutral, "She was able to counter each and every kick."
Trunks shrugged, "I bet she's probably mad now. That happens when she gets like that."
Goten chirped up, "Yeah. Remember what happened last time at the other tournament. Whoa, she was angry then."
"You said it."
Chun-Li continued her attack, now moving both her legs and at a faster rate. But #18 was still deflecting the kicks. A small smile curve up her face.
"Haven't you had enough, Ms. Li?"
#18 suddenly grabbed her leg and held her palm up. A small glow formed and a yellow beam blasted Chun-Li backward and away. #18 then reached her arm to the back and started waving it back and forth, sending out energy beams with each wave. The beam blasted the area where Chun-Li had fallen and left a massive cloud of smoke in its wake. But just as suddenly as the smoke arose, Chun-Li sprang right out. #18 was surprised and Chun-Li held her palms out toward her.
"Kiko...SHO!!!!!!!!"
A massive burst of pure energy ignited right in #18 midsection and she was hurled back. Chun-Li held her position for awhile, breathing heavily as she waited for #18 to get up. Chun-Li was drained as that last attack took a lot out of her. Her clothes were partly shredded and dirty. Slowly #18 stood up, her clothes ragged from the energy burst. It looked as though both women were ready to fall, their bodies shivering in pain and fatigue. But slowly, #18's eyes rolled back and she collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
"Winner, Chun-Li and Sakura!"
With that announced, Chun-Li slumped to the ground, also unconscious.
Elsewhere in the skies above, Mirai Trunks flies in search for his friends. After talking with Bulma and the others at the dome, he decided it would be best if he found them and warned them. About what? Trunks thought. So far, nothing has happened that is out of the ordinary. All I have is a message from a strange man and not even a clear one. Still, if anything is to happen here in this time, then I must help in any way I can. Huh?
Trunks abruptly stopped and looked around.
"I'm detecting a power. It's familiar...there!"
Trunks turned to his right and saw a figure flying toward him. Looking closer, he saw a green-skinned figure in robes heading toward him.
"Dende!"
Dende flew to him, "Trunks? It is you, the one from the future, right?"
"Yep."
Dende smiled, "Wow, welcome back."
Trunks nodded, "It's good to see you, Dende. You've grown a lot since last time."
"Thanks, so have you." His face then turned grim, "I assume that you're not just visiting for fun."
Trunks' face changed as well, "I wish I could say yes, but there may be a problem." He told Dende of his account with the strange visitor and how he returned to this timeline.
Dende nodded, "Yeah, I thought so. I've been getting a weird feeling about this tournament as well. We should inform the others."
"I agree. We should split up, that way we'll increase our chances. But we better hurry. The dark force is growing with every moment, so we shouldn't waste time."
"Right. Let's go."
The both of them shot off in their separate directions, unaware that below them, a dark figure was watching them.
"Your suspicions are confirmed. The boy is on to us. He plans to contact his allies."
"No matter. The project has been initiated. He won't a difference. Report back."
"Roger."
The assassin known as Doctrine Dark disappeared into the shadows once again.
Elsewhere...
Another monorail stopped at its destination.
Fighter #11: Sagat. Please exit the monorail.
The hulking figure arose and exited the rail. He expected the monorail to be there like before, but none showed up.
"Warning. Here comes a new challenger!"
A ball of light fell from the sky and materialized. Sagat looked as a strange form arose. It was a white creature with a purple forehead and lips, red eyes, three toes on each foot and a tail. Yet Sagat could tell that this creature was more than it seemed.
"Hmph. Let's see what you can do."
The creature smiled.
Elsewhere...
Fighter #81: Dan. Please exit the monorail.
Dan jumped up, grin on his face. "Now for all of you to see the power of my Saikyo style!"
Everyone teardropped as he got out and his opponent arrived. A fissure of steam appeared and standing there was...
"Hercule!"
"YEAH!!!!!!!!!!"
The dome...
"HERCULE RULES!!!! HERCULE RULES!!!!
Chi-Chi sighed, "These people are clueless. Do they really think this guy beat Majin Buu?"
Bulma shrugged, "Why not? They still believe he beat Cell."
Marron then pointed, "Hey, look at that guy. He's wearing pink."
The other turned their attention to Dan and Chi-Chi commented, "Talk about trying to get someone's attention."
Oolong laughed, "You said it. What kind of fighter wears pink?"
Bulma smirked, "Vegeta did once, remember?"
Everyone laughed.
Dan stood out and stretched, "Finally, I'll have a chance to show my fabulous fighting skills and defeat the champ all in one stroke."
Hercule grinned and pointed at him, "You really think you're a match for the champ! You've got a lot of guts just walking up to me and saying that!"
Oh, yeah? Well let's see what you can do against me, Dan, the sole master of the Saikyo style karate!" Dan raised his fist, "Oyaji!!!!!!!!"
Hercule smiled, "If you're going to do a victory pose, let the champ show you how it's done." He raised his hand in the arm and did the peace sign,
"YEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!"
Dan grumbled, "Oh yeah, well try this on!" He jumped in the air, rolled into a ball and landed with his fist raised again. "OYAJIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Well, try this on." Hercule leaped up, somersaulted, and landed with both arms raised in a peace sign, "YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!"
"Oh yeah? Well try this."
While this was going on, everyone in the monorail watched in disbelief.
"This is absolutely ridiculous!" Vegeta growled.
Kairi shook his head, "I thought this was a fighter's tournament, not an audition to a dance."
Sean nodded, "Now you see why I don't like being mistaken for him."
Suddenly, their monorail closed and began to move away. Dan wasn't paying attention and continued his 'battle' with Hercule. Nearby, a small frog watched them.
They call that posing. I could teach them a thing or two.
As the monorail continued on....
"Well, this is new."
Vegeta spoke up, "It doesn't matter, just as long as I don't have to watch that silly sideshow."
The monorail stopped in a barren field, covered with rocks.
Fighter #3: Vegeta. Please exit the monorail.
Vegeta snorted, "Well it's about time." He marched out, waiting for the monorail. But none came.
"Warning. Here comes a new challenger!"
A burst of fire exploded on the ground and flames arose...
"Akuma!" Chun-Li gasped.
Suddenly, the monorail shut up and they were trapped inside.
"What the...?"
Vegeta looked back at the rail and then his opponent. "Hmph, perhaps this will be interesting after all."
Akuma gave a sharp grin.
Elsewhere...
Fighter #14: Goku. Please exit the monorail.
Goku stood up, "Alright, here we go." He did a few stretches and stood outside and the next monorail came up.
Fighter #15: Ryu. _____ Oh, my god. Not the two of them! Goku and Ryu are now faced off, both unaware of the true power the other one has or the new turn of events that are going on. And now Vegeta must face the ultimate evil warrior, Akuma. Next episode, the true intention Millennial tournament is revealed as the fighters fight themselves in dire straits. Vegeta faces the demon Akuma, but are his Super-Sayian powers enough? And now Ryu and Goku are posed for the ultimate showdown. You can't miss it! __________
(AN: Whew, this took a long time to create. The Chun-Li vs. #18 battle was extremely difficult, especially on deciding the victor. It took me several nights, several coin tosses, and several headaches to determine it. I was going to have it become a tie, but that wouldn't be fair to the readers, so one of them had to win, just not easily. Like it or not, that's the choice made.)
In response to Public Mayhem, I understand your feelings, but I want to set the record straight. I did not lower the Z fighter's power levels, nor did I raise the Street Fighters. I thought a lot about this (seriously) and it has occurred to me that if they wanted to, a Street Fighter has enough energy and power to destroy a planet.
