Chap. 13

Within the dome, Rose and Tien quietly made there way through the dark corridors. Reaching an elevator, they entered and took it up to the upper level.

"I'm sorry for knocking you out earlier." Rose finally said. "This presence had been disturbing me for some time and I had to stop it."

Tien nodded, "Its okay. You had good reasons. Besides, you freed me so I guess were even."

The elevator finally stopped and they hid to the side. Tien slowly moved his head out and saw the arena where the fans were sitting.

"Hey, this is where they watch the fights."

"Perhaps we can gain more information about what's going on."

"I know a few people. Let's go."

As they left the elevator, a camera above them moved.

"Hmm. Send Doctrine Dark and unit 08 down to the central arena. We have a few guests."

The lookout

"Hey Trunks, Mr. Mirai looks a lot like you."

"Really? Are you sure?"

"Yeah. You're hair color is the same as his. So are your eyes."

"Well, maybe."

Trunks and Goten were busy talking to themselves. At the same time, Mirai, Kairi, and Sean were talking to each other while Vegeta stayed at the edge of the lookout not saying anything.

"So you're saying that this Akuma taught you how to fight?"

"No. I already knew how to fight, but when I had amnesia, he twisted it around and made me darker, more aggressive."

"Oh, that sounds pretty bad."

"I was a killing machine. I had no control over it and I hurt a lot of people. If not for Ryu, I would have....." He stopped talking.

"I see. About Ryu, what's his story? I can sense he's powerful, but I don't know how much."

Sean answered this one, "Well, he's never really been defeated and before he got married, he spent his life traveling the world perfecting his skills and fighting."

Trunks thought, "Then he must be pretty strong."

"Do you think he's as strong as my dad?" Goten asked.

"Naaaa. No one is as strong as our dads. I was just saying that he must be strong."

"I don't know about that, Trunks. But I do know it would be one heck of a match."

"I doubt it."

Everyone turned to the speaker, Vegeta.

"Kakarott is a true Sayian. I doubt this Ryu could last long against him, much less me." Vegeta began to move.

"Hey dad, are you leaving?"

"Well, I don't much like staying put, so I'm going down for awhile. I may find something useful."

Mirai stood up, "I'll go with you."

Vegeta grumbled, "I don't need anyone watching over me." With that he flew of the lookout and down below.

Mirai shook his head, "Still the proud type."

After a moment of uncomfortable silence, Sean decided to end it, "So explain this fusion technique."

Trunks went on to explain, "Well it's not much. It looks like a silly dance, but it not. Basically, you have to be either similar in size or an even power level."

Goten suddenly jumped up, "Hey, why don't we show them?"

"That's a great idea, Goten. Let's do it. You guys can watch."

Trunks and Goten ran out into the courtyard and stood side by side, hands toward the side. Sean had a puzzled look on his face while Kairi and Mirai watched intently. The two boys began to shift to each other.

"Fuuuuuu"

Their hands met and they shifted again.

"Sion!"

They then shot to each other, fingers touching.

"HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

A bright blue glow formed around them and was followed by an explosion of light. Everyone covered their eyes and the glow faded. When they looked, they saw the fused warrior, Gotenks.

"I'm baaaaaack!"

The three warriors were amazed by this art and by the amount of power they feel coming from him.

"So....this is fusion."

Gotenks grinned, "Not too shabby, huh?"

Mirai walked up to Gotenks and rubbed his cheek, "Interesting. I think I understand the form."

Kairi nodded, "Me too."

Gotenks put his hands on his hips, "No way. It took me a long time to learn it. You'd have to practice for hours just to understand it."

Kairi stood up as well, "Well, you already explained how it works somewhat. And all it requires is a little finesse and precise control." Looking over to the side, "Mirai, do you think we could try?"

"Sure, why not."

Gotenks folded his arms, "You can try. But I don't think you'll do it."

Kairi and Mirai stood side by side, just as Trunks and Goten did before. Sean, Gotenks, Dende and Mr. Popo watched.

"Do you think they can do it?"

"I'm not sure Popo. It took the boys a long time to learn and master it."

"Hmph. They won't do it."

Mirai and Kairi stood side by side, hands toward the side, just as Trunks and Goten did before. They began to shift toward each other.

"Fuuuuuu."

"Huh?"

Their hands met and they shifted again.

"Sion!"

"What? They're actually....."

They then shot to each other, fingers touching.

"HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

A bright green glow formed around them and was followed by an explosinon of light. Everyone covered their eyes at the bright flash.

"I don't believe it! They're actually doing it!"

The flash of light finally faded and there before them stood a new being. He had light purple hair like Mirai, but it was long and tied at the end like Kairi. He had Mirai face somewhat, but he also had Kairi's scar over one of his eyes. And he wore a black and blue fusion suit with Mirai's sword hooked into it. He looked at his hands and examined them.

Sean blinked, "Whoa, awesome power."

Dende agreed, "Yes, I have to agree. And they got it on their first try without prior training."

"It must be a natural talent." Popo added

"That's not fair!" Gotenks yelled. "Not fair, not fair, not fair!"

"Hey kid, that's enough. No sense in complaining." The fused being said.

Gotenks stuck his head up, "Oh yeah? Who do you think you are?"

"The name's Mirakai, squirt."

Meanwhile, Vegeta landed in front of the dome. As he looked, he saw the negative barrier. In all honesty, he wasn't sure what he could do now. He had to wait for a sign.

One came......

A blink of light shone on the top of the dome and a ball of light came at him and stopped in front of him. It was Sherac.

"So it's you."

"Well, we meet again, Prince Vegeta."

What? Vegeta knows who Sherac is? What does this mean? And also, what will become of the new warrior Mirakai? And inside, Rose and Tien are unaware that trouble is approaching them. What will happen to everyone? Next chapter…
