Chapter Sixteen - Kamehameha Clash

Matrix laughed as she flexed her muscles. "What do you think?" she asked. "It's not quite the same as yours is it?" She smiled. "It's got something to do with the robotic parts in me."

Matrix was now transformed. Her hair was half way down her back now with only some of what was on the top of her head sticking up. Her eyes were a deeper green than normal, but there was no mistaking the blue electricity lancing about her body. She wasn't just a Super Sai-jin, she was at level two.

An instant later they were flying at each other at top speed. Each lashed out with a punch and each caught the others. They began to push each other in mid air while the crowd continued to stare. Then with a quick twist of her body Matrix hurled Goku toward the ground and charged after him. As he fell he fired a quick energy blast into the air catching the Android off guard and nailing her in the face.

Before she recovered from the blast Goku slammed his foot into her back knocking her out of the entire arena and followed after quickly. "Um....." the announcer began. "There's no rules against fighting outside the arena so long as they don't touch the ground but...." He sighed. "We'll try and get our cameras out there and trained on the match as quickly as possible."

"Any idea who's winning?" Krillin asked.

"Goku, I think." Trunks said. "It's a bit hard to keep track of each energy signal, now that she's powered up they seem to be overlapping."

Piccolo nodded. "It's like with Cell, we can sense each separate signal. Except I'm feeling more Goku than Vegeta in her power, though that could be because she's fighting Goku."

"This is amazing." Shin said walking up beside Piccolo. "I never thought mortals could become this strong."

Piccolo looked down at him. "So you're really the Supreme Kai?"

"Yes. I'm here because the universe is in danger."

"We noticed."

"No, not her or her friend. It's the other two."

"Spoppovitch and Yamu?" Gohan asked. "They're not that strong."

"It's not them but who they're working for. I thought they'd make their move by now, but it seems the other two have their own plans."

Trunks looked around, "Where are they at now? I can't seem to keep track of them."

"They're about a mile out now still in the air." Gohan said. "I..."

He stopped as the blimp from earlier floated down and the fight appeared on screen. You couldn't make out either fighter on the screen, just streaks of gold light. "Look at those two go. It's amazing."

"Ladies and Gentlemen," the announcer cried. "It seems they're coming back this way."

A moment later there was a streak of gold light overhead followed by an explosion as the two fighters clashed. After a few moments longer they broke off from the battle and floated facing each other panting. "You're.... stronger than.... I expected.... Goku. Guess it comes down... to this." She pulled her arms back and cupped her hands.

Goku's eyes went wide. /Guess I should have expected this, after all Cell could do all our attacks too./ and he followed suit.

Matrix smiled. "Ah, so it's a test of strength then? Let's go!"

"Kaaaaaaaaaaaa! Meeeeeeeeeee! Haaaaaaaaaaa! Meeeeeeeeeee! Haaaaaaaaaaa!"

Both of them fired their Kamehameha's and the energies clashed over the arena. The two blue beams of energy pushed and vied for control. Each forced as much energy down the wave as they could manage but it stayed a stand-off for a few moments. Then suddenly Goku's energy began to build as his aura began to flare up. A moment later he was completely hidden by his golden aura. His wave swelled and quickly overcame Matrix's wave and slammed into her throwing her backward.

Smoke billowing from her body she fell toward the ground as Goku's power dropped again and the aura faded. By the time she hit the parking lot outside the arena Goku had landed and returned to normal.
