CHAPTER:12, The Semifinals

"And now ladies and gentlemen The semi finals of the Orange Star teen martial arts tournament are about to began" The announcer yelled from the ring area. Meanwhile Gohan, and Videl where standing in the waiting area, "well Videl you ready to go?" Gohan asked "Yea I guess, but if I beat Jacob I will have to face you in the finals in front of my father."

"Don't worry about your dad, or the finals, just think about Your fight with Jacob." "Ok" Videl said smiling

"OK WILL Videl Satan please come to the ring."

"Wish me Luck Gohan" Videl said walking off, "Good luck" *she is going to need it*

"OK NOW Will Jacob Black come to the ring" Jacob started walking to the ring with absolutely no expression on his face. "Well, Videl you ready to rock?" Jacob said as he dropped into his fighting stance

"Yea" she replied droping into a stance that was almost the same as Gohans, *Shit, I am in for a tough fight this time* Jacob thought

"Fighters ready?" they nod, "Ok FIGHT!!"

Videl rushed at Jacob who was taken off guard by her speed and as a result got a kick to the stomach and a punch in the face, *Damn she is good, That actually hurt, I have got to be more carefull* Jacob thought as he caught Videl's last punch and threw a kick of his own, witch she blocked. They both started throwing a series of lightning fast kicks and punches, nether of then gaining or loosing any advantage over the other, suddenly they broke apart and they jumped to opposite sides of the ring. "well Videl, Gohan's training has really helped you" Jacob said as he caught his breath. "yea it has" she replied. "well its time to end this!" Jacob yelled as her ran at Videl, but all of a sudden she was not there "What the hell?" Jacob exclaimed as he looked around, Then He felt her Ki spike, she was above him!

Jacob looked up in time to catch a ki blast to the face, witch knocked him to the other side of the ring "GOD DAMN THAT HURT!!" He screamed as he got to his feet, I guess Gohan taught you that." He said as he floated up to be level with Videl "Well sorry Videl, but I have some tricks of my own" He said as his red eyes started to glow.

*What the hell is he going to do* Videl thought, but suddenly a pair of red Ki beams shot out of Jacob's eyes, Videl saw them coming, and put up a defense, but the beams where to powerful for her to block and she was knocked into the wall outside of the ring.

"I don't beleave it, Jacob Black had defeated Videl" The anouncer yelled into his microphone he ran over to check on Videl, but she was up before he got to her. "Damn Jacob you think you could have turned the power down a bit." Videl said as her and Jacob where walking back to the waiting area, "I could have made them weaker, but then again I could have made them strong enough to kill you"

"Nice fight Videl" Gohan said when the pair walked in, "Thanks Gohan, you better get out there your match is next" Videl replied, "don't worry about me, I will be..." Gohan was cut off by two glowing balls hitting hem in the back and knocking him down, "Gohan, Gohan, we found you!!" Goten yelled as he jumped up and down beside a fallen Gohan, "Yea we have been looking all over for you" Trunks yelled standing beside Goten. "What are you two doing here!!!!!" Gohan screamed at the top of his lungs at the two pint size demi- saiyans, "We came here with Mom and Dad, and Trunks's Mom and Dad, and guess what big brother Mirai-Trunks is here too, "Holy shit, you are kidding me." Gohan yelled worried that his family, but more urgently Vegeta where in the crowd, "nope we are not kidding' "look, you two go back to the others I have a match coming up" Gohan said and the two chibis walked off *Man if someone even looks at Vegeta the wrong way, we are going to have mass murder on our hands* Gohan thought as he walked out to the ring to face Ramone.

"Well now is everyone excited" the crowd screams in response "Well we now present to you the last semifinal match Gohan Son Vs. Ramone Dickinson" Gohan and Ramone walk to the ring and get into fighting stances. "Fighters ready?, Fight!!" in about 5 seconds Cohan kicks Ramona out of the ring, "Well that was fast, but Cohan moves on to the Finals to face Jacob ____________________________________________________________________________ _ well that's it sorry it took so long but due to situations beyond my control I had to put this story on the back burner, But in a couple of days I should get the finals up, and reveal Jacob's biggest secret but that all depends on if I get reviews, no Reviews, No new Chapter
