Kero was the first to make a move, he ran forward and swung at Thong with his fist, but she quickly dodged. She retaliated with a kick aimed at his head, but he ducked under it and hit her back, sending her to the ground.
He's faster than I expected, Thong thought. Well I guess you have to be quick and nimble to be a thief.
She stuck out her legs and tripped him, and then got up and kicked him in his side. He rolled over and grabbed her leg, and flung her.
He's strong too, thought Thong as she hit the ground again. I might actually have to try.
Quick as lighting, she ran forward and smashed into Kero, catching him by surprise. Winded, he slowly got up, and said to her, "I guess you were toying with me as much as I was with you. If you won't hold anything back, I promise I won't."
"How can I trust a promise made by a thief? Not that I'm worried," Thong retorted. "But if I don't hold anything back, I'll probably destroy myself, and possibly a large part of the surrounding area."
Kero drew back in shock, "You're bluffing!"
"Don't believe me? Then find out for yourself!"
Kero rushed Thong, and aimed a flurry of punches at his face. Smirking, she dodged for a bit, and then sent him flying with a slight shove. He got up and tried to tackle her, throwing all his weight into it, but she rose up into the air, and he did a face plant and slid painfully over the ground. He turned over, his face a scratched and bloody mess, and was at first confused when he saw a glowing blue light getting closer to him. Then, realizing what it was, he cried out and made a futile attempt to block the ki blast. He heard Nia scream in the background, and then there was a loud exploding sound in his ears.
It took a moment to realize that he had not been hit by the blast, that it had hit the ground right beside his head. He was unharmed, except for a few singed hairs. He got up and laughed, "You missed me."
"I didn't miss. I wasn't aiming for you. If you don't give up, I promise I won't miss the next time."
"Sure." he grinned maliciously. "Whatever you say!"
Kero threw a handful of dust into Thong's eyes, and she let out a cry of surprise and pain. Taking the advantage, Kero threw himself at her, ravaging her with a storm of blows.
Shit, I can't block if I can't see, and he's so fast and strong! Thought Thong as stars repeatedly burst in her head, making supernovas of pain. That bastard. that.
"DIRTY CHEATER!" Thong screamed as her rage exploded.
Kero was thrown back by a violent explosion of energy, and collided with a tree one hundred feet away. Just before he surrendered to darkness, he heard Nia screaming once more, and he saw the girl now had golden hair, and a black storm had gathered around her, surrounding only her.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM YOU WITCH?!" Nia screamed at Thong, running towards the slumped form of her brother, tears streaming down her face. She fell to her knees beside Kero, and started to shake him. "Kero! Wake up! Wake up! Don't you dare leave me like daddy did! KERO DON'T LEAVE ME!"
The little girl continued to scream, and then her voice broke into wailing sobs.
"Oh my god, what did I do?" Thong said to herself, suddenly drained of all her energy. "I can't believe it, I killed him. I'm not a witch, I'm a monster. I'm a horrible monster, just like Vegeta!"
She almost broke down into tears herself, but then her self-loathing was interrupted by a slight movement. Just a tiny twitch, and hope was restored. Thong ran towards Kero, shouting, "He's alive! I didn't kill him!"
She dropped and felt for a pulse, and then checked his breathing. "Nia, don't worry, he'll be fine. He's got a pulse and he's still breathing. He'll be okay so just stop crying. I'm going to get something that will help him, just stay here and watch him."
Nia didn't respond at all, but Thong left anyway. He's alive, but I don't know for how long. I cut him up pretty bad, and that smash couldn't have helped. I've got to hurry.
She flew up into the sky, and headed to the watchtower where Korin the cat lived. She had only been there once before, but she still remembered the way. It's just a matter of time. No, it's a matter of everything; time, fate, life and death.
Yea I know this took me awhile and it's kinda short, but I don't have a lot of time. But thanks for all your reviews, and I'll try to keep on working!
