Chapter 5

The Quarter Final

At the hospital Yamcha had regained consciousness and was talking to his friends.

"Why am I the one who always end up at the hospital?"

"Well I am sorry about that Yamcha that guy Piccolo I think he's after me" said Gokou

"Why?" said Bulma

"Well I think that we may have fought before but I can't remember when" replied Gokou

"Hey Yamcha you are not alone bro you got Tien to keep you company" said Krillin pointing at Tien that was sitting on his bed

"I am only here for the day, I can even go watch the final if I want to" answered this one

"I never know that playing football was good training thing" said Gokou

"Yeah that guy Vegeta is really strong. I guest I underestimate him" said Tien

"You right he doesn't look tough, do you think he could beat Piccolo master Rochi?" asked Krillin

"I don't know Krillin but they had both been holding back who knows how strong those two really are" he said

"There's no way that this ball player is going to pull it out" Said Yamcha

"Well will see" added Gokou

In the hotel room where Vegeta and Bruno shared

"Wow! You were amazing! I never new you know how to fight and fly that was so cool!" said Bruno with admiration he had been at it since they left the tournament and that was one hour ago.

Vegeta looked at his friend and sighed but Bruno continued "When did you learn? I mean you are always busy with your training and all"

"My mom taught me" he answered

"Your mom can fight also, wow that's so cool!"

"Yes Bruno you said that fifty times!" said Vegeta annoyed

"I am sorry; it was a very exciting match"

"It was boring! I could defeat that guy with one single punch if I wanted to" said Vegeta while letting himself dropped on his bed, and closed his eyes. Bruno didn't replied but instead his eyes didn't leave Vegeta lay body on the bed; it was anyone guest what he was thinking about. Vegeta feeling that he was being watched opened his eyes only to see that Bruno was looking at him lustfully, he frowned puzzled and said

"Bruno stopped looking at me like this, you are creeping me out!"

Bruno snapped out of his day dream and said with an embarrass tone

"Uh sorry, are you hungry? I am starving. I think we should celebrate your victory!"

"That's an idea" said Vegeta jumping of his bed.

At her hotel room Yakusoku was on the phone making various calls. The woman was worried sick because the two young men didn't come back from their trip and she didn't have any ideas where they went.

"Thank you officer" she said and hanged up the phone

"Where could they be I know that they up to something. When I found them they will regret the day they were born!" she said furious

The next day a big crowd gathered itself around the ring to watch the quarter final matches. Bulma and his friends were in front and Tien was allowed to leave the hospital.

"You should stay at the hospital" said Bulma

"And miss the match of the century no way!" replied Tien

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first match is between Gokou and Krillin who have been received training under the same master, and they had faced each other on the last tournament. Only the winner will go to the final, which of these two promising young men will made it? Will it be Gokou who had defeated Krillin last time or will it be Krillin? This will be one exciting match! Now let's put it together for our two young warriors" said the announcer while the crowd was cheering for them

"This time Gokou I am ready for you"

"Are you sure Krillin?"

"Prepared yourself to get stomp!"

Gokou and Krillin began a hand to hand fight where kicks and punches were flying everyway, for a moment they seemed to be evenly matched.

"Come on Krillin I know you holding up! If you want to win that match you must do better!" said Gokou

"Ok as you wish!" said Krillin.

Now they had taken the fight to the air as it become more intense then ever.

"I only wish they would hurry! They are wasting important people's time!" said Vegeta irritated

"Well I see you can't wait to get your ass kicked I see" said Piccolo behind him

"And who are going to beat me? You, please don't make me laugh!"

"So you think that you are a match for me!"

"No, I am better than you'll never be"

"Is that a fact? Well I can't wait to take that ridiculous smirk out your face!"

"Oh I am so scared that I am shaking on my boots" mocked Vegeta

Gokou and Krillin were still fighting in mid air.

"It's time to end that fight" said Gokou

"I agree" answered Krillin but before he could react Gokou hit him with his elbow and knock him down out of the ring

"And the winner is Gokou! Now the next match is between Vegeta and Piccolo who are two unknown fighters but had proved themselves to be ferocious one. Let's welcome those two fighters"

Vegeta and Piccolo walked toward the ring under the applause of the crowd. They stood on the ring facing each other, Vegeta was the first to take his fighting stance, but Piccolo had his arms crossed and said

"My fight is not with you I advise you to quit now before it's too late"

"Why everybody is so concern about my health? I don't need your advice I am here to beat you so fight green man!"

Vegeta didn't finish the last words that Piccolo was on him and started punching and kicking him around the ring and the young saiya-jin wasn't able to defend himself.

"Oh my he's going to killed him!" said Bruno scared among the crowd

"Ouch that's gotta hurt!" said Krillin

"I guest" replied Gokou

The last punch sent Vegeta crashing into the wall of the ring, everyone was looking at him in silence, but the prince slowly get on his feet and wiped the blood on his lips

"You shed first blood, you are better than I thought, but don't make no mistake you won't get that opportunity again!"

"The only thing you can do is talk! Let's see what you are capable of!"

"I was waiting for you to say that" said Vegeta

He phased in appeared in front of Piccolo and punched him hard on his stomach leaving him gasping for air then kicked him on the jaw that send him flying on the sky but he stopped himself and looked at the young man on the ground

"He's really strong, but I don't have time to waste I'll finish him off what now" he said but Vegeta was coming after him and the resumed the fight in mid-air. Kicks and blows was exchanged until they hit the ground there Piccolo took out his heavy cape and dropped it to the ground, Vegeta smiled

'Things will get more interesting now!' he thought,

The green man moved so fast that it was a blur but Vegeta had saw him coming and blocked the attacked by catching his fists and didn't let go. They look at each other in the eyes for an instant put Piccolo fired at him a laser eye beam that make him let go but Vegeta had time to dodged it. "I better take off my jacket I don't want it to be ruin in this fight" he said taking it off and threw it to the crowd and landed on Bruno that put it on him.

"Hey Gokou is that a tail?" asked Krillin

"Yes you are right!" exclaimed Gokou

"Hey you guys Vegeta has a tail" said Bulma surprised

"Yes Gokou used to have one like that! What does that mean?" said Tien

"I don't know! But we could always asked" replied Bulma

'M-mm I knew that boy was different' thought master Rochi

On the ring

"I am ready for you now" he said again at that moment Piccolo divided himself in three as the crowd was gasped in surprised but Vegeta said

"Oh cool!"

Now he had to fight three Piccolos instead of one the fight was intense but the prince was holding himself pretty well, until the Piccolos fired eye beam at him that make him run for the sky, which was a bad moved as they screamed MASENKO-HA!!!

Vegeta shielded himself from it and fired multiples ki blast at them

"It's time for you to bring yourself together Piccolo!" said Vegeta laughing but the three Piccolos flied to him and attacked but Vegeta easily blocked them seeing that attacked didn't bring the outcome needed Piccolos came together to formed one and he said "Who are you?"

"I am Vegeta Oujisama" he said smirking

"I never thought a human of your caliber" said Piccolo

"Well I am special!" he replied

"Not for long" said Piccolo grabbing his neck and chocking him Vegeta tried to make him let go but without success.

"Vegeta do something!" said Bruno alarmed

"Do you think that he's going to kill him" asked Krillin

"No, not if he wants to fight with me next and that Vegeta guy is not finish yet" said Gokou

At the same instant Vegeta grabbed Piccolo's arms and pulled them out of from their sockets as the Namek was screaming in pain

"Oh my Vegeta had took away Piccolo's arms" said the announcer in disbelief

Vegeta took the arms off his neck and dropped them on the ground

"Sorry about that" he said grinning

Piccolo had finish screaming and now was looking at Vegeta with hatred

"You are going to pay for that!"

"How? You cannot fight me in this condition!" said Vegeta but Piccolo started laughing and in a hear tearing shriek he regenerated both arms

"Holy shit!" said Vegeta as many person of the crowd lost consciousness and announcer was to amazed to said a word

"Now I am pissed! And killing you is the only thing that's going to calm me down!"

But Vegeta was too stunned to move when he attacked, Piccolo gave him a blow on the jaw that was capable of removing his head from his neck that send him spinning away and he fell loudly on the ground and didn't move. Piccolo spit on the ground and turned his back at him the announcer started the count down

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine…"
