Okay guys. I may not have written in a while, but I did expect some
reviews. I did get some, and those who reviewed thank you. I know
Michelle18 just finished her story, and I too have been focused on her
stuff. But I was extremely disappointed when I opened my mail and all I saw
was junk. Yes, school has started, but its not an excuse to forgetting to
give me a 30 second review. If it's too much trouble, I understand, I have
a lot going on too, but please try to review. Thanks, and I hope you like
the chapter. A big twist is coming!

Chapter 13: Out of the Ring
Pan took a swig from her water bottle. The water was a blessing, for her mouth was parched and dry. She stood at the edge of the shaded area, watching the competitors. Up next was her humorous uncle, Goten. His opponent, formidable he may look, was Muscular Manny. She almost choked on her water as the name came over the loudspeaker:
"Our next competitors, Goten and ....Manny? Muscular Manny! Will you please come to the center of the ring!"
Goten walked passed her and said, "Wish me luck, kid!"
"Ya, like you need it," She said, unsure if he heard her.
She then heard his laughter, so she guessed he had.
Muscular Manny was very muscular indeed. His arms, legs, and abdomens bulged. Any woman would have groveled at his feet. But he was slow, terribly sluggish, Pan observed, it seemed he hadn't figured out that speed and endurance were just as important as strength of arms.
Suddenly she felt another presence approach her. This one she knew, unlike the Supreme Kai, who came and went whenever he pleased. She turned around and saw that it was Trunks.
"Mr. Muscular isn't doing too well, wouldn't you say?" Trunks came up beside her.
"He is a fool, but an honest one. He did what he was best at, and didn't cheat," she paused there, savoring the effect of her words, " This fight is over." And a minute later the fight ended, Manny slumped over in a pile of rubble at the base of the stands like a rag doll.
The next bout was highly anticipated; everyone knew about the not-so- friendly rivalry between Vegeta and Goku. The two fighters, however, were completely relaxed. Vegeta stood silent, and Goku had his game face on. They were announced, and both flew out into the arena.
"Ready...Guard!"
Every participator stood on the sidelines as Vegeta and Goku soared into the sky. They became tiny specks, save for the golden flare on each of them, and they knew they had both reached Super Saiyan level. Both only went to SS2 for now, even though higher levels could be reached.
When they came straight down they were locked hand to hand. As their feet hit the ground, cracks along the surface of the floor opened, and small craters were made directly under their feet.
All of this the host commentated on, and the crowd cheered for more; eating the fight up, and drowning out all other sounds. They might not have known what was going on, but they liked it.
Both of the men's hair was a mountain of spikes. Their icy blue eyes were like a cold chill on your back. But these features Pan saw as beautiful, intriguing, and their movement graceful. They went into a flurry of fighting, disappearing and reappearing in a different place. Pan could not wait to have that power, to feel it tingling her fingers and giving her energy, like caffeine. So many others of her relation or not had that power. They were either whole or half-blood saiyan. Soon, for she knew it was coming, she would show them that a female quarter saiyan could be just as strong as any man.

Goku was extremely pleased with the way the fight was going. He knew both he and Vegeta were in a state of bliss. Not an all out power fight, but it was still felt good to go all out. He smiled at the thought of an all out power fight, imagining giant craters and smoke clouds.
They were nearing the edge of the ring. Goku always hated that rule, no matter how fair it was. If you're hit out of some stupid boundaries you automatically lose. Vegeta was pushing him, knowing he'd get out of it and continue.
Flash of a face----
Eyes-----
A clown.
What?
A line connected in Goku's brain for a second to the evil force. He heard a laugh; it was waiting for him.
Waiting for him?
He felt a ping in his head, then something worse. A blow to the gut. "Uff," he grunted, and suddenly had the sensation of flying, as he had done so many times before. But, he landed on his behind. The darkness in his mind cleared, and he stared at shock at the grass in between his legs.
"Kakarot! What was that?! Since when do you let your guard down?!"
Vegeta's voice rang in his ears.
The world seemed to stop. All except for the commentator's words, "Whoa! A fantastic feat of strength! Goku was knocked out of the ring, leaving us with our winner, and the end of the first rounds! Congratulations, Vegeta!"
The crowd cheered, but Goku was thoroughly confused. What had that been, that had interrupted his fight so abruptly? It was evil, well, that was obvious.
"Dad! What happened?"
Gohan appeared at his side, wearing the face of his father. Goku stood up, and rubbed his temples. "Gohan, it was something evil. Horrible. Scary even."
"Kakarot, what did you see?" Vegeta joined them.
Goku led the two men to the waiting area. Piccolo and the Supreme Kai joined them as well.
"I felt it too," Kai said, and Goku lifted his eyebrows.
"I don't think the others did though, why did you?"
"I have a very keen sixth sense, you might say. Also, Goku, I think it is after you."
