Hey there! You are probably all ready to light torches and come after me
with pitchforks, but that's ok. I deserve it. I haven't posted a new
story in such a looooooong time. I don't blame you if you don't want to
read this chapter but I ask that you do. Pretty please??
Anyways, for those who want to know, in the last chapter someone attacked David. Who was it? Read and find out!
And I don't own DBZ. But I do own David and Kia. Please don't steal them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
Recap of the Last Chapter:
Both stood there staring in each other's eyes for a few minutes, until David spoke. "I really enjoyed tonight. Maybe we can do it again?"
"How about tomorrow?" Kia said, smiling widely.
"Then I will see you tomorrow," David said, smiling.
Unexpectedly, Kia reached up and kissed David on the cheek. "Bye!" she said as she walked toward her door opening it.
"Bye!" David said, in a dazed state.
She smiled as she closed her door. David started to walk off, rubbing his cheek where Kia had kissed it. Making sure no one was looking, David took to the skies, as the sky grew darker.
The sky was now in it's twilight as David flew towards Gohan's house. Thinking about the wonderful time that he had with Kia, David rubbed his cheek again. Suddenly, out of nowhere, David was struck hard in his face. Caught off guard by the attack, David began falling to the ground. Unable to recover, David hit the ground hard, causing a small crater to form. A little dazed, David stood up and looked for his attacker, his lip bleeding. A figure came down from the sky and land on his feet. David's eyes widened in shock when he got a good look at him.
"It's you!" he exclaimed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
What stood in front of David was a short man with his hair spiked up. His hair was black, with eyes that scowled at David. It was sort of hard to actually get too many details since it was getting darker by the minute.
"You're the energy I've been feeling," David said, not sure how this person would react.
"Probably. You've been hanging around with Kakarot's brats lately huh?" he asked in a gruff tone.
"You mean Gohan and Goten right?"
"Who do you think I mean?" the man replied, sarcastically.
"You're Vegeta, aren't you?" David asked, sure now that this man was him.
"Do you want a prize for guessing that one right?"
"Why did you hit me?" David asked, changing the subject.
"How else did you want me to get your attention?" Vegeta answered with a question.
"Not the way you did it!" David complained wiping his bloody lip.
"It's not my style to do it any other way," Vegeta smirked.
"So what do you want?" David asked.
"I wanted to actually see who Gohan was hanging out with. what all the fuss was about."
"I also need a sparring partner," Vegeta explained. "My son isn't bad, but I need someone more my level, and Kakarot's brat won't spar with me too much anymore."
David looked at Vegeta a moment and thought to himself. "I do need to prepare myself in case those guys find me," he thought to himself.
"Well?" Vegeta asked, rather impatiently.
"Okay then, I will spar with you," David answered.
"When do you wish to do this?"
"Saturday at 8 a.m. sharp. That way it doesn't interfere with your 'schooling'."
"Okay, then I'll see you Saturday," David said, finalizing their agreement.
"Don't expect me to go light on you," Vegeta explained.
"I don't expect you to," David replied.
"Then I will see you Saturday runt."
With that Vegeta took off to the skies, and disappeared from sight. David didn't bother to follow his energy signature because he already knew where it was going. Instead David headed toward his new home, where Goten, Gohan, and Chichi were waiting.
As he walked in, Chichi came walking in the room raising her fist in the air.
"David, I know you are new here, but you are expected to be here before a certain time!"
"I'm sorry Mrs. Son but..." David tried to explain.
"But nothing! I..."
Chichi stopped when she noticed David's bloody lip. "What happened?"
"I met this guy named Vegeta on my way home."
"Oh that man!" Chichi exclaimed. "Why does he always have to do something like that?"
Chichi inquired more and David explained that he was invited to spar with him on Saturday at 8 am. Chichi was reluctant at first, but after being reassured by David that he would have all of his schoolwork done by then, she agreed. Besides, she wanted to meet with Bulma again, and Goten wanted to go play with Trunks.
"Okay then, we'll go on Saturday," Chichi said, finalizing the agreement.
"Thanks Mrs. Son. Where is Gohan?"
Chichi pointed up the stairs. "He's doing homework."
"Then I'll go join him," David explained as he began walking off.
Chichi grabbed his arm and told him to wait; she wanted to clean his bloody lip. After that, she gave him a bowl of soup she had made and told him to eat it when doing schoolwork.
Soon after, David went upstairs and was doing his homework alongside Gohan. Gohan finished first of course, since he was the first one home. David was finished soon after. Gohan asked David what had happened to his lip and David told him one word, "Vegeta."
"Ohhhhh," was all Gohan said, fully understanding.
David then told him that they had scheduled to spar on Saturday, which Gohan didn't mind. Besides he had wanted to see how David fought. Later on that evening, it was time to go to bed. Especially since both Gohan and David had school the next day. Chichi was not going to let those future scholars ruin their minds by staying up late. Goten was again sleeping in Gohan's room, which neither of them minded. Soon, everyone was asleep, dreaming different dreams.
Days passed and Saturday soon arrived. Today was the day David was going to spar with Vegeta. David had to admit, he was nervous. He wasn't sure how strong this guy 'Vegeta' really was. Not only that, he didn't really have any fighting clothes, accept for the suit he used when changing into Phantom Elie.
"What am I going to wear?" David asked himself sitting there at the breakfast table at 6 am.
"Are you okay David?" Chichi asked, watching David's expressions.
"Yeah, just trying to figure out what I can wear."
"I have a training gi that you can borrow if you want," Gohan spoke up.
"Are you sure? I don't want to ruin it," David asked, unsure.
"It's okay, I don't mind. Besides I have quite a few of them."
"You can also borrow mine if you want David," Goten chirped in.
Everyone laughed, which confused poor little Goten.
"Thanks Goten, but I don't think they would fit," David laughed.
"Oh," was all Goten could say, a confused expression still on his face.
David smiled. "Don't worry about it Goten. Thanks for offering though."
Goten immediately cheered up and went running off to go get ready to visit Trunks.
"Well, I better go change, thanks again for allowing me to borrow your training clothes Gohan," David said as he sort of bowed and walked up to Gohan's room to change.
A blue haired woman answered the door as Chichi rang the doorbell. "Chichi! Hi! How are you doing?" she asked as she looked at Chichi.
"I'm doing good Bulma," Chichi replied.
Bulma turned her attention to everyone else. "Hey Gohan and Goten. How are you doing?"
"We're doing pretty good Bulma," Gohan replied for both he and Goten.
"And may I ask who this cutie is you brought with you?" Bulma asked smiling at David.
"Um, my name is David. It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Briefs," he responded bowing his head.
"Oh, there's no need to be so formal. You can call me Bulma."
"Yes ma'am."
Bulma invited the group in and sat them down in the living room of her huge home. She told David to follow her and led him out back to a building in which she called the "GR Room" or Gravity Room. Bulma told David to walk in and Vegeta would be there in a few minutes.
"And I want you two to play nice," Bulma said as she smirked, walking out.
Looking around, David thought that the room was quite nice. Considering its bare walls, it had a nice white color along with an electronic keypad on the wall.
"Nice," he thought to himself.
David's thoughts were interrupted when the door opened, and in walked Vegeta.
"Hey brat! You ready to train?"
David gave a casual smile. "Sure."
Vegeta gave his famous smirk and walked over to the keypad and set the gravity to 500 times the earth's. David felt the difference as he felt like 3 freight trains were put on his shoulders.
"Like it?" Vegeta smirked again. "I usually go higher than this, but I decided to give you some time to show whether you can handle this or not."
"Well," David began. "I have never trained with gravity like this, but I suppose I could handle higher."
Vegeta smirked again. "I like you kid."
With that, Vegeta turned the gravity up to 800 times the Earth's and turned into a Super Saiyajin. David felt like 3 more freight trains were put on his shoulders and struggled, falling on his knees. Vegeta laughed.
"What's wrong? Too much?" Vegeta retorted in his Super Saiyajin form.
"Well, a little," David replied. "But if I do this..."
David powered up some and began to stand on his feet, feeling as if four of the freight trains had been taken off.
"Much better," David said.
Vegeta arched an eyebrow. "I better watch this kid. If he can do that and pass the level of a super saiyajin that fast and easily, then I'm in trouble," Vegeta thought to himself.
David jumped up and down a couple of times. "I have to get used to this."
"Well?" Vegeta asked rather impatiently. "Are you ready?"
David quit jumping up and down and looked at Vegeta. "Oh! Ok! I'm ready!"
He then got into a fighting stance and waited for Vegeta's first move.
Vegeta was the first to attack David, using an attack that caught David by surprise, instantly knocking him into a wall.
"Too much for you kid?" Vegeta retorted with a smirk.
David smiled back, "No, just caught me off guard, that's all."
"That's a mistake you don't make," Vegeta criticized, keeping his stance
David stood up, but not too soon did Vegeta take and throw him into the ground.
"Wow, you're strong!" David said, looking up at Vegeta from the ground smiling.
Vegeta arched an eyebrow. "Will you get serious and stop acting like a baka!"
David's smile faded. "If you want me to."
Before Vegeta could react, David had taken him, punched him in the stomach 20 times and threw him into a wall. Though a little surprised, Vegeta attacked back, flying at David, punching him in the face and in the gut.
Thirty minutes went by fast, as Vegeta had the upper hand, knocking David around. The way it looked, Vegeta was giving David a beating. He had bruises, a busted lip, and some tears in his gi while Vegeta had a minor rip in his. By this time Vegeta had gone Super Saiyajin 2 and really began to pummel David.
"Give up yet kid?!" Vegeta smirked, as he knocked David into a wall, causing another crater.
Breathing hard, David stood up, and then smiled. "I don't quit that easily."
"Good," Vegeta said as he shot a ki ball at David.
David smacked that ball away as he was kicked in the face, then grabbed and slammed into the ground headfirst.
Gohan looked through the small window on the door of the GR room. "Wow, Vegeta's giving David a beating, but is that how David fights? If he fights like that, then he really needs a lesson in martial arts."
Gohan was slightly startled as David's body hit the door hard. "Wow, that must have hurt. I can feel your ki David, but it's lower than Vegeta's. Hmm... What are you doing David?"
Gohan continued to watch as someone pulled at his pants leg. Without looking down, Gohan told that person to go away.
"But Gohan, Trunks and I want to know what's happening," the voice belonging to Goten.
Looking down at Goten, Gohan sighed. "You can feel them right Goten?"
"Yeah," came Goten's reply.
"So can I!" Trunks chirped in.
"So what do you feel?"
"Well, I feel my dad kicking your new friend's butt!" Trunks said, in a voice showing that he was proud of his dad.
Gohan sighed. "Yes, it does seem that way, but David isn't really putting up a fight," he said as he sighed again.
The troublesome duo were a little too short to see through the window that Gohan was looking at so they both took a shoulder of Gohan's, looking through the window.
"Wow! Vegeta's really attacking David," Goten said.
"Thanks for pointing out the obvious for us Goten," Trunks said, rolling his eyes. All three of them continued to watch through the window, but were shocked by what they saw next.
David stood up and looked at Vegeta. "You are strong Vegeta, and I want to thank you for showing me your moves."
Vegeta, who was in a stance, looked surprised at David. "What are you talking about?" he demanded.
"Like I told you, I don't quit that easily," David said as he got into a fighting stance, then powered up, but his energy level still remained lower than Vegeta's ki.
--Flashback-
"Always try to learn what your opponent's moves are David," said a Scarlet Macaw as he, David, and another Phantom Scout, were gathered out in the middle of a field.
David had just gotten up after being knocked down by Zack, one that was older than him, and seemingly stronger. He stared at David, and then smirked, looking over at the parrot.
"Like he could ever learn my moves Garith. He's been getting beaten down by me for the last 30 minutes."
"Give him a chance Zachary, he will learn," Garith replied.
"Oh please! He hasn't made any progress! He only laid one punch on me and that's it!"
David growled at the comment. "David, don't let him get to you," Garith said in David's mind.
"I'm sorry," David thought back. "But he keeps taunting me and he is always one step ahead of me."
On the outside, David just looked at Zack, but on the inside...
"Have you learned any of his moves yet?" Garith asked David.
"Your asking that because I managed to hit him, aren't you?"
"You better believe it! Just calm down and power up just below him. Then watch his moves and watch his openings, but don't let him know that you are on to them. It may look like you are weak, but trust me."
"Okay, if you want me to," David thought to Garith as he kept staring at Zack.
"Hello! Earth to Jeris! Are you going to attack me or am I going to stand here and watch the clouds go by?!"
At that, David powered up, but as instructed, stayed just below Zack.
"Finally!" Zack groaned, getting into a fighting stance.
David flew at Zack, watching Zack move his arm, then stopped as Zack missed, and dodged Zack's leg and other hand, taking this open moment to punch Zack in the stomach and trip him off of his feet. Zack was surprised and shocked at what David had done, as he hit the ground and watched as David brought his elbow inches toward his stomach and stopped.
"How in the world..." Zack began to say, but Garith interrupted him.
"Yes! That's it David! I knew you could do it!"
David grinned at the compliment as he stood up and look at Garith. "Thanks!"
He extended his hand to help Zack up, but he smacked it away. "Let's try that again Jeris!"
"Um, sure," David replied as he stepped back as Zack stood, getting into a fighting stance.
This time, Zack took the initiative and flew at David, but was surprised by getting knocked down again.
"See David!" Garith said aloud. "You should use this on whichever foe you face."
--End Flashback-
Vegeta stared at David. "What are you talking about brat?" Vegeta's response was an attack to his stomach, which took a 20-kick combo and a hard slam into the ground. Vegeta got up as David did a handstand and grabbed Vegeta with his legs and brought him down to slam him into the ground. Vegeta disappeared and reappeared, floating above.
"Is that the best you've...?" Vegeta said before he felt his feet being grabbed and met the floor with his face, David stopped a few inches before elbowing Vegeta's back. David stepped back as Vegeta got up.
"Grrrrr! You will pay for that!" Vegeta yelled as he flew at David, only to be slammed into the ceiling.
"Um, sorry," David said as he saw Vegeta in his crater on the ceiling.
Vegeta, after getting off of the ceiling, attacked David again. This time, he was slammed into a wall. Several attempted attacks later, and no punches being laid on David, Vegeta went to the keypad.
"Uh, what are you doing?" David asked.
He was answered by an increase in gravity, and then several compartments in the ceiling and walls opened up and out of all of them came 20 robots.
Gohan, Trunks, and Goten just stared as they watched what Vegeta had done.
"Uh oh, dad is really angry now," Trunks said, knowing his father's temper.
"Wow! Look at all the robots!" Goten said in amazement.
Trunks looked over at Goten. "You... are truly a baka Goten."
"I knew David was hiding something," Gohan said. "Now it looks like Vegeta's going all out on him."
"Wow! Your dad is shooting ki beams at David, Trunks! And David just destroyed 10 of those robots!"
Trunks didn't respond, but stared as David deflected his dad's ki beams at the robots, dodged the kicks and punches, and even knocked Vegeta into a wall, while he took out a few more robots.
Vegeta got up and attacked David again, finally laying a punch on him, and slamming him into a wall as a robot flew after him to add an attack. Vegeta also destroyed another robot that attacked him also. Before he knew it a ki beam hit him and he was grabbed and thrown into the ground hard. Vegeta felt a little dazed after this attack and went to get up, but then noticed that he had been on the ground for about a minute, and that all of the robots were destroyed.
Breathing hard, a few feet away, David stood there thinking, "I can't let it control me. I can't go higher. If I continue at this pace, I will lose it... again."
David looked at Vegeta, "Can we quit now? I am feeling tired."
Standing up, Vegeta responded, "No, I am not finished!"
With that Vegeta continued attacking David at a rapid pace.
"You don't understand! I don't want to continue!"
"You are a coward now?! Is that it?!"
"No! Please, this is too much! I don't want to hurt you! We cannot continue this! Please stop!"
"Not until one of us passes out brat!" came Vegeta's response.
David felt it and he didn't like it. He slammed Vegeta into the ground as it started to take over. "Noo! I won't! I can't!"
David's hair began to sway as if a wind had picked up in the middle of the GR Room, his energy level rising high. Vegeta attacked again, but was caught by his throat.
"I said, back off!" David said as Vegeta began gasping for air. With that, David slammed him into the ground and held Vegeta by the throat.
"I told you to back off!" David yelled as his eyes got a frightening look in them.
Vegeta realized that he had pushed too far, but his pride wouldn't allow him to back off. "I will not back off! I am the Prince of all Saiyajins!"
With that David took and punched Vegeta hard in the face, knocking him out, then fell back as he grabbed his head, breathing hard. "No! Noooo!!"
Within a few minutes the GR door opened and Gohan, along with Trunks and Goten ran in.
"David! What's wrong?" Gohan tried to ask, but David backed away.
"I'm sorry!" David said as he quickly ran out and took off to the skies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
Well, that's it for this chapter. Again, I am sorry for taking such a loooooong time to post again. If you have to have a reason, you can e-mail me.
Also, originally, it wasn't Vegeta who attacked David. It was actually someone else. I noticed though, that the story flows more smoothly if I do it this way.
And what happened to David? Why did he attack Vegeta like that? I'll explain in later chapters.
Anyways, for those who want to know, in the last chapter someone attacked David. Who was it? Read and find out!
And I don't own DBZ. But I do own David and Kia. Please don't steal them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
Recap of the Last Chapter:
Both stood there staring in each other's eyes for a few minutes, until David spoke. "I really enjoyed tonight. Maybe we can do it again?"
"How about tomorrow?" Kia said, smiling widely.
"Then I will see you tomorrow," David said, smiling.
Unexpectedly, Kia reached up and kissed David on the cheek. "Bye!" she said as she walked toward her door opening it.
"Bye!" David said, in a dazed state.
She smiled as she closed her door. David started to walk off, rubbing his cheek where Kia had kissed it. Making sure no one was looking, David took to the skies, as the sky grew darker.
The sky was now in it's twilight as David flew towards Gohan's house. Thinking about the wonderful time that he had with Kia, David rubbed his cheek again. Suddenly, out of nowhere, David was struck hard in his face. Caught off guard by the attack, David began falling to the ground.

"You're the energy I've been feeling," David said, not sure how this person would react.
"Probably. You've been hanging around with Kakarot's brats lately huh?" he asked in a gruff tone.
"You mean Gohan and Goten right?"
"Who do you think I mean?" the man replied, sarcastically.
"You're Vegeta, aren't you?" David asked, sure now that this man was him.
"Do you want a prize for guessing that one right?"
"Why did you hit me?" David asked, changing the subject.
"How else did you want me to get your attention?" Vegeta answered with a question.
"Not the way you did it!" David complained wiping his bloody lip.
"It's not my style to do it any other way," Vegeta smirked.
"So what do you want?" David asked.
"I wanted to actually see who Gohan was hanging out with. what all the fuss was about."
"I also need a sparring partner," Vegeta explained. "My son isn't bad, but I need someone more my level, and Kakarot's brat won't spar with me too much anymore."
David looked at Vegeta a moment and thought to himself. "I do need to prepare myself in case those guys find me," he thought to himself.
"Well?" Vegeta asked, rather impatiently.
"Okay then, I will spar with you," David answered.
"When do you wish to do this?"
"Saturday at 8 a.m. sharp. That way it doesn't interfere with your 'schooling'."
"Okay, then I'll see you Saturday," David said, finalizing their agreement.
"Don't expect me to go light on you," Vegeta explained.
"I don't expect you to," David replied.
"Then I will see you Saturday runt."
With that Vegeta took off to the skies, and disappeared from sight. David didn't bother to follow his energy signature because he already knew where it was going. Instead David headed toward his new home, where Goten, Gohan, and Chichi were waiting.
As he walked in, Chichi came walking in the room raising her fist in the air.
"David, I know you are new here, but you are expected to be here before a certain time!"
"I'm sorry Mrs. Son but..." David tried to explain.
"But nothing! I..."
Chichi stopped when she noticed David's bloody lip. "What happened?"
"I met this guy named Vegeta on my way home."
"Oh that man!" Chichi exclaimed. "Why does he always have to do something like that?"
Chichi inquired more and David explained that he was invited to spar with him on Saturday at 8 am. Chichi was reluctant at first, but after being reassured by David that he would have all of his schoolwork done by then, she agreed. Besides, she wanted to meet with Bulma again, and Goten wanted to go play with Trunks.
"Okay then, we'll go on Saturday," Chichi said, finalizing the agreement.
"Thanks Mrs. Son. Where is Gohan?"
Chichi pointed up the stairs. "He's doing homework."
"Then I'll go join him," David explained as he began walking off.
Chichi grabbed his arm and told him to wait; she wanted to clean his bloody lip. After that, she gave him a bowl of soup she had made and told him to eat it when doing schoolwork.
Soon after, David went upstairs and was doing his homework alongside Gohan. Gohan finished first of course, since he was the first one home. David was finished soon after. Gohan asked David what had happened to his lip and David told him one word, "Vegeta."

Especially since both Gohan and David had school the next day. Chichi was not going to let those future scholars ruin their minds by staying up late. Goten was again sleeping in Gohan's room, which neither of them minded. Soon, everyone was asleep, dreaming different dreams.
Days passed and Saturday soon arrived. Today was the day David was going to spar with Vegeta. David had to admit, he was nervous. He wasn't sure how strong this guy 'Vegeta' really was. Not only that, he didn't really have any fighting clothes, accept for the suit he used when changing into Phantom Elie.
"What am I going to wear?" David asked himself sitting there at the breakfast table at 6 am.
"Are you okay David?" Chichi asked, watching David's expressions.
"Yeah, just trying to figure out what I can wear."
"I have a training gi that you can borrow if you want," Gohan spoke up.
"Are you sure? I don't want to ruin it," David asked, unsure.
"It's okay, I don't mind. Besides I have quite a few of them."
"You can also borrow mine if you want David," Goten chirped in.
Everyone laughed, which confused poor little Goten.
"Thanks Goten, but I don't think they would fit," David laughed.
"Oh," was all Goten could say, a confused expression still on his face.
David smiled. "Don't worry about it Goten. Thanks for offering though."
Goten immediately cheered up and went running off to go get ready to visit Trunks.
"Well, I better go change, thanks again for allowing me to borrow your training clothes Gohan," David said as he sort of bowed and walked up to Gohan's room to change.
A blue haired woman answered the door as Chichi rang the doorbell. "Chichi! Hi! How are you doing?" she asked as she looked at Chichi.
"I'm doing good Bulma," Chichi replied.
Bulma turned her attention to everyone else. "Hey Gohan and Goten. How are you doing?"
"We're doing pretty good Bulma," Gohan replied for both he and Goten.
"And may I ask who this cutie is you brought with you?" Bulma asked smiling at David.
"Um, my name is David. It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Briefs," he responded bowing his head.
"Oh, there's no need to be so formal. You can call me Bulma."
"Yes ma'am."
Bulma invited the group in and sat them down in the living room of her huge home. She told David to follow her and led him out back to a building in which she called the "GR Room" or Gravity Room. Bulma told David to walk in and Vegeta would be there in a few minutes.
"And I want you two to play nice," Bulma said as she smirked, walking out.
Looking around, David thought that the room was quite nice. Considering its bare walls, it had a nice white color along with an electronic keypad on the wall.
"Nice," he thought to himself.
David's thoughts were interrupted when the door opened, and in walked Vegeta.
"Hey brat! You ready to train?"
David gave a casual smile. "Sure."
Vegeta gave his famous smirk and walked over to the keypad and set the gravity to 500 times the earth's. David felt the difference as he felt like 3 freight trains were put on his shoulders.
"Like it?" Vegeta smirked again. "I usually go higher than this, but I decided to give you some time to show whether you can handle this or not."
"Well," David began. "I have never trained with gravity like this, but I suppose I could handle higher."
Vegeta smirked again. "I like you kid."
With that, Vegeta turned the gravity up to 800 times the Earth's and turned into a Super Saiyajin. David felt like 3 more freight trains were put on his shoulders and struggled, falling on his knees. Vegeta laughed.
"What's wrong? Too much?" Vegeta retorted in his Super Saiyajin form.
"Well, a little," David replied. "But if I do this..."
David powered up some and began to stand on his feet, feeling as if four of the freight trains had been taken off.
"Much better," David said.
Vegeta arched an eyebrow. "I better watch this kid. If he can do that and pass the level of a super saiyajin that fast and easily, then I'm in trouble," Vegeta thought to himself.
David jumped up and down a couple of times. "I have to get used to this."
"Well?" Vegeta asked rather impatiently. "Are you ready?"
David quit jumping up and down and looked at Vegeta. "Oh! Ok! I'm ready!"
He then got into a fighting stance and waited for Vegeta's first move.
Vegeta was the first to attack David, using an attack that caught David by surprise, instantly knocking him into a wall.
"Too much for you kid?" Vegeta retorted with a smirk.
David smiled back, "No, just caught me off guard, that's all."
"That's a mistake you don't make," Vegeta criticized, keeping his stance
David stood up, but not too soon did Vegeta take and throw him into the ground.
"Wow, you're strong!" David said, looking up at Vegeta from the ground smiling.
Vegeta arched an eyebrow. "Will you get serious and stop acting like a baka!"
David's smile faded. "If you want me to."
Before Vegeta could react, David had taken him, punched him in the stomach 20 times and threw him into a wall. Though a little surprised, Vegeta attacked back, flying at David, punching him in the face and in the gut.
Thirty minutes went by fast, as Vegeta had the upper hand, knocking David around. The way it looked, Vegeta was giving David a beating. He had bruises, a busted lip, and some tears in his gi while Vegeta had a minor rip in his. By this time Vegeta had gone Super Saiyajin 2 and really began to pummel David.
"Give up yet kid?!" Vegeta smirked, as he knocked David into a wall, causing another crater.
Breathing hard, David stood up, and then smiled. "I don't quit that easily."
"Good," Vegeta said as he shot a ki ball at David.
David smacked that ball away as he was kicked in the face, then grabbed and slammed into the ground headfirst.
Gohan looked through the small window on the door of the GR room. "Wow, Vegeta's giving David a beating, but is that how David fights? If he fights like that, then he really needs a lesson in martial arts."
Gohan was slightly startled as David's body hit the door hard. "Wow, that must have hurt. I can feel your ki David, but it's lower than Vegeta's. Hmm... What are you doing David?"
Gohan continued to watch as someone pulled at his pants leg. Without looking down, Gohan told that person to go away.
"But Gohan, Trunks and I want to know what's happening," the voice belonging to Goten.
Looking down at Goten, Gohan sighed. "You can feel them right Goten?"
"Yeah," came Goten's reply.
"So can I!" Trunks chirped in.
"So what do you feel?"
"Well, I feel my dad kicking your new friend's butt!" Trunks said, in a voice showing that he was proud of his dad.
Gohan sighed. "Yes, it does seem that way, but David isn't really putting up a fight," he said as he sighed again.
The troublesome duo were a little too short to see through the window that Gohan was looking at so they both took a shoulder of Gohan's, looking through the window.
"Wow! Vegeta's really attacking David," Goten said.
"Thanks for pointing out the obvious for us Goten," Trunks said, rolling his eyes. All three of them continued to watch through the window, but were shocked by what they saw next.
David stood up and looked at Vegeta. "You are strong Vegeta, and I want to thank you for showing me your moves."
Vegeta, who was in a stance, looked surprised at David. "What are you talking about?" he demanded.
"Like I told you, I don't quit that easily," David said as he got into a fighting stance, then powered up, but his energy level still remained lower than Vegeta's ki.
--Flashback-
"Always try to learn what your opponent's moves are David," said a Scarlet Macaw as he, David, and another Phantom Scout, were gathered out in the middle of a field.
David had just gotten up after being knocked down by Zack, one that was older than him, and seemingly stronger. He stared at David, and then smirked, looking over at the parrot.
"Like he could ever learn my moves Garith. He's been getting beaten down by me for the last 30 minutes."
"Give him a chance Zachary, he will learn," Garith replied.
"Oh please! He hasn't made any progress! He only laid one punch on me and that's it!"
David growled at the comment. "David, don't let him get to you," Garith said in David's mind.
"I'm sorry," David thought back. "But he keeps taunting me and he is always one step ahead of me."
On the outside, David just looked at Zack, but on the inside...
"Have you learned any of his moves yet?" Garith asked David.
"Your asking that because I managed to hit him, aren't you?"
"You better believe it! Just calm down and power up just below him. Then watch his moves and watch his openings, but don't let him know that you are on to them. It may look like you are weak, but trust me."
"Okay, if you want me to," David thought to Garith as he kept staring at Zack.
"Hello! Earth to Jeris! Are you going to attack me or am I going to stand here and watch the clouds go by?!"
At that, David powered up, but as instructed, stayed just below Zack.
"Finally!" Zack groaned, getting into a fighting stance.
David flew at Zack, watching Zack move his arm, then stopped as Zack missed, and dodged Zack's leg and other hand, taking this open moment to punch Zack in the stomach and trip him off of his feet. Zack was surprised and shocked at what David had done, as he hit the ground and watched as David brought his elbow inches toward his stomach and stopped.
"How in the world..." Zack began to say, but Garith interrupted him.
"Yes! That's it David! I knew you could do it!"
David grinned at the compliment as he stood up and look at Garith. "Thanks!"
He extended his hand to help Zack up, but he smacked it away. "Let's try that again Jeris!"
"Um, sure," David replied as he stepped back as Zack stood, getting into a fighting stance.
This time, Zack took the initiative and flew at David, but was surprised by getting knocked down again.
"See David!" Garith said aloud. "You should use this on whichever foe you face."
--End Flashback-
Vegeta stared at David. "What are you talking about brat?" Vegeta's response was an attack to his stomach, which took a 20-kick combo and a hard slam into the ground. Vegeta got up as David did a handstand and grabbed Vegeta with his legs and brought him down to slam him into the ground. Vegeta disappeared and reappeared, floating above.
"Is that the best you've...?" Vegeta said before he felt his feet being grabbed and met the floor with his face, David stopped a few inches before elbowing Vegeta's back. David stepped back as Vegeta got up.
"Grrrrr! You will pay for that!" Vegeta yelled as he flew at David, only to be slammed into the ceiling.
"Um, sorry," David said as he saw Vegeta in his crater on the ceiling.
Vegeta, after getting off of the ceiling, attacked David again. This time, he was slammed into a wall. Several attempted attacks later, and no punches being laid on David, Vegeta went to the keypad.
"Uh, what are you doing?" David asked.
He was answered by an increase in gravity, and then several compartments in the ceiling and walls opened up and out of all of them came 20 robots.
Gohan, Trunks, and Goten just stared as they watched what Vegeta had done.
"Uh oh, dad is really angry now," Trunks said, knowing his father's temper.
"Wow! Look at all the robots!" Goten said in amazement.
Trunks looked over at Goten. "You... are truly a baka Goten."
"I knew David was hiding something," Gohan said. "Now it looks like Vegeta's going all out on him."
"Wow! Your dad is shooting ki beams at David, Trunks! And David just destroyed 10 of those robots!"
Trunks didn't respond, but stared as David deflected his dad's ki beams at the robots, dodged the kicks and punches, and even knocked Vegeta into a wall, while he took out a few more robots.
Vegeta got up and attacked David again, finally laying a punch on him, and slamming him into a wall as a robot flew after him to add an attack. Vegeta also destroyed another robot that attacked him also. Before he knew it a ki beam hit him and he was grabbed and thrown into the ground hard. Vegeta felt a little dazed after this attack and went to get up, but then noticed that he had been on the ground for about a minute, and that all of the robots were destroyed.
Breathing hard, a few feet away, David stood there thinking, "I can't let it control me. I can't go higher. If I continue at this pace, I will lose it... again."
David looked at Vegeta, "Can we quit now? I am feeling tired."
Standing up, Vegeta responded, "No, I am not finished!"
With that Vegeta continued attacking David at a rapid pace.
"You don't understand! I don't want to continue!"
"You are a coward now?! Is that it?!"
"No! Please, this is too much! I don't want to hurt you! We cannot continue this! Please stop!"
"Not until one of us passes out brat!" came Vegeta's response.
David felt it and he didn't like it. He slammed Vegeta into the ground as it started to take over. "Noo! I won't! I can't!"
David's hair began to sway as if a wind had picked up in the middle of the GR Room, his energy level rising high. Vegeta attacked again, but was caught by his throat.
"I said, back off!" David said as Vegeta began gasping for air. With that, David slammed him into the ground and held Vegeta by the throat.
"I told you to back off!" David yelled as his eyes got a frightening look in them.
Vegeta realized that he had pushed too far, but his pride wouldn't allow him to back off. "I will not back off! I am the Prince of all Saiyajins!"
With that David took and punched Vegeta hard in the face, knocking him out, then fell back as he grabbed his head, breathing hard. "No! Noooo!!"
Within a few minutes the GR door opened and Gohan, along with Trunks and Goten ran in.
"David! What's wrong?" Gohan tried to ask, but David backed away.
"I'm sorry!" David said as he quickly ran out and took off to the skies.

Well, that's it for this chapter. Again, I am sorry for taking such a loooooong time to post again. If you have to have a reason, you can e-mail me.
Also, originally, it wasn't Vegeta who attacked David. It was actually someone else. I noticed though, that the story flows more smoothly if I do it this way.
And what happened to David? Why did he attack Vegeta like that? I'll explain in later chapters.
