Trunks tossed the bags he was holding aside and stood next to me. Zack grinned, "Oh, I see you've got your little boyfriend to help you…you're going to need it". He stepped back a bit, powering up. I immediately felt his energy suddenly soaring, surpassing what I had been used to. The others followed suit, powering up as well. I glared at them, "I don't want to fight here…there are too many people around". Zack glared a bit, "Whatever…as long as it ensures a good fight". And with that, he snapped his fingers and instantly, we all appeared to be in the middle of nowhere, not a single thing except mountains and land for as far as the eye could see.

I looked around, Zack had his arms crossed in front of his chest, "This better?" He sneered at me, saying it sarcastically. I nodded, suddenly wondering if the Z fighters would get worried if we weren't around, so I whispered to Trunks, "Trunks, I want you to go back and tell everyone what happened, then bring them back here…I may need some help". His eyes widened and he whispered back angrily,

"No! I'm not leaving you here with these guys alone!" I glared,

"I didn't ask your opinion. If you don't do this, you and I BOTH will die, and then Earth will have no hope". He sighed, finally agreeing, immediately flying up, then away, the minions watching him go.

"I'm glad that extra baggage left, I didn't feel like wasting my energy on him" Troy remarked. I rolled my eyes a bit, standing tall, "I've learned a few tricks since I've been away, this won't be the usual fight you're all used to". I heard Zack laugh as he walked closer to me, and evil grin on his face, as he looked me in the eye, "Oh, don't worry, we know…" He grinned, getting as close to me as he could before I kneed him in the stomach hard, beginning the fight.

I soon saw just how much they knew, immediately going level one, blocking some punches and kicks while trying to get out a few of my own, although finding it hard because there were 5 of them. As we continued, I went level 2, getting some good shots off on Troy and Mack, the weakest ones. We paused our fighting as we felt some energies approaching; it was the Z fighters.

Zack turned to me and glared, then back to the direction the fighters were coming them, slowly seeing them come into view. I was a little relieved by this, considering I was starting to get a little tired; facing 5 guys wasn't at all easy. Trunks was the first to land on the ground, quickly running over to me, Goku and Gohan landing next, watching the minions carefully, trying to sense their power. Vegeta landed as well, glaring a bit as he looked at the guys. Trunks grabbed my hand, seeing that I was a little banged up, and at level 2 already, "Are you ok? We're all here now, we can help". I nodded that I was fine and watched as Aaron rolled his eyes, "Zack, you're not seriously going to let these guys help her?" Zack grinned a bit, an idea sinking into his head,

"No…but I will let them watch her die, add to the fun!" The Z fighters looked a little confused as Zack and Jack together shouted out something. Immediately, Trunks went flying back, as did the other fighters, and were blocked by a force field, making it so that they were trapped.

Zack laughed a bit, dusting his hands off, watching the fighters try to get out, "That was too easy". I glared, quite angry now that he had done that. Zack walked back over to me again, "Now, kitten, on to you". I saw a look in his eyes now that had a little glint of something other than the evil I had always seen; he wanted something else. I looked at him, having a suspicion as to what it was, "Are we going to fight or are you just going to stare at me?" He looked very pissed off at this and started some energy blasts, directing them straight at me.

The fighters watched as I started to get pummeled by the blasts, reflecting them as best I could, even going to level 3 to keep up with them. I was smashed, blasted, kicked and punched harder than anything I had even felt, it was like the first time I had met with them, except magnified by a thousand.

I tried so hard to fight back, giving my all into the fight, although doing it for everyone else, and not myself. I saw Trunks pushing against the field, looking distressed as he watched. Goku looked a little angry, but seemed to be saving his energy, knowing the shield couldn't be broken.
