Dragonball Destiny (Season 1)

Episode 02: The Power of Fire and Water

The two figures stopped and looked about them, studying their surroundings. The shorter one walked over to the taller one. They appeared to be talking to eachother, but Trunks and Goten were too far away to here them. The two boys could sense their power level, and it wasn't very strong, but it definatly wasn't a human power level. Trunks started to move to the left to get a better view when the taller one looked in their direction. Trunks froze and Goten hid tightly behind the tree. Trunks thought that if he didn't move they wouldn't be able to see him because of the dark forest's shadows.

Suddenly Trunks felt someone grab his shirt, he turned his head and saw that it was the smaller one holding him. Trunks looked back at the other one and he already had Goten. Trunks' jaw dropped. "I'm fast, but not that fast!" he thought to himself. As quick as lightning he suddenly was over sitting next to Goten. They started to back away when the taller one spoke.

"Who are you?" he said. "What were you doing in those trees... spying on us?"

"Uh... well ya see...uh...!" Trunks muttered. The smaller one came over to Trunks and held up his index finger. A tiny fireball formed and hovered there, flickering once in a while.

"Can I burn his hair Cade?" he asked.

"No Flare, I want to play with them a little." Cade said. "My name is Cascade, and this is Flare."

"What are you doing on earth?" Goten asked.

"Well that's simple." Cascade said. "To destroy it."

"What!!! Why?!" Trunks shouted and stood up. Goten stood up too and they took a step back.

"Simply because we want to." Cascade said. "We're what is called Elementals, a race not known by many people. We live on the planet Elementia. Each Elemental has a certain element that they are born with. Flare here is of course fire." just as Cascade said 'fire,' Flare held up his hands and 10 tiny fireballs appeared on his fingertops. "And I, am water." Cascade said. "We Elementals have the power to do anything, but instead of destroying this miserable planet right away, I decided to have some fun with it."

"Not on our turf!" Trunks yelled, getting in a fighting stance.

"Yeah, bullies." Goten agreed, doing the same thing.

"Look at that Cade, two little kids think they can stand up against us. Hahaha!" Flare said.

"We'll have to teach them a lesson than huh?" Cascade laughed. Trunks and Goten flew back and powered up. "Is that their way of powering up?"

"Guess so." Flare replied.

"It looks stupid, haha!" Cascade laughed. "Let's show them a cooler way of powering up. Ready Flare?" The sky got dark and from the clouds came a ball of water, falling slowly down, over Cascade. He looked up and held his hand up. He shot into the air and was consumed by the water. Then, the water exploded revealing a cooler looking Cascade. His silky blue hair was spiked and he wore a different outfit: A dark blue fighting suit with a metal plate with a water insignia on it.

Flare turned around and lifted his hands. He span in circles until a flame arose from the ground and encircled him. It became a tube like fire and out of the top of the tube, about 15 feet in the air, Flare came out standing on an avanlanche of lava. The lava carried him down to the ground and then disappeared.

Goten and Trunks stopped powering up and stared in awe. "I think we've won already Flare. It seems they were so out-matched in powering up that they just lost their minds." Cascade chuckled. Flare laughed and stuck out his hand towards the boys.

"Cosmic Flare!" Flare launched his signature move, a black fire as hot as the sun's core. Trunks and Goten were almost hit by it. If they had not already decided to split ways before he launched the attack, they would be dead. The beam disentagrated the forest and flew off into space. Trunks grabbed right arm in fanned it.

"Ow! That's hot, and it didn't hit me." Goten's blue shirt was burnt off and he too had is harm in his hand.

"What do you say Flare, shall I cool them down?" Cascade said, launching a water ball at Trunks. He took a direct hit and was consumed by the water. Trunks was running out of breath, but he couldn't move. "See that's the special thing about this attack. I have complete control over the person inside. They can't move, breathe, or do anything until I destroy the ball. I figured I just let you drowned, but I wanna give you a chance. You seem to be, non human people. No one can dodge Flares fire." Cascade threw his arm to the side and the ball of water flew down to the ground in that direction. When it hit the ground it exploded and water flew everywhere.

Trunks was gasping for air when he came out. Goten flew down to him to see if he was ok. Goten had a look in his eyes that Trunks understood. "It looks like we're going to have to stop you Cascade!" Trunks shouted. Suddenly with a burst of rage Trunks and Goten were at Super Saiyan and charging for Flare. They tackled him down to the ground and pummled him into the earth, making a crater. Trunks and Goten hopped out and stepped back. They looked up at Cascade and he seemed to be laughing.

"Tut, tut. Haven't you boys ever learned anything? If you play with fire... you're gonna get burned." Suddenly a huge volcano like explosion came out of the crater and lava poured everywhere. The boys flew up into the air to avoid it, but had to dodge the falling drops of it. Flare slowly hovered out of the crater with eyes of fire, literally. Out of them shot two fire balls that consumed the boys and burnt them. They let out a loud yell of pain and fainted because of it. They fell to the ground and the fire died off. "Let's leave 'em here Flare, we've got other manners to attend to."

Obviously these guys are foes! Will Trunks and Goten be ok? Find out on the next episode of Dragonball Destiny!
