Chapter 9: Unstoppable Power

Gohan glanced over in the direction of the lookout. -Dende...can you hear me?-

-What's going on Gohan?-

-I need you to contact the others and have them all meet up with me, Goten, Uub, and Pan. The way things are going we're all going to need to work together if we're even going to have a chance in this fight.-

Gohans conversation was quickly ended as the Prism they were fighting flew up at the four of them and they all prepared to continue their fight.

All four of the warriors flew down at Prism together as he approached them. Seconds before reaching him, Goten, Uub, and Pan separated flying off in separate directions while Gohan flew fist first into Prism. He was momentarily distracted by the other three and was caught directly in the face by Gohans fist, being knocked backward through the air.

Before he had a chance to go back at Gohan, Goten appeared by his side swinging his leg into Prisms jaw. He was sent spinning upward through the air rapidly before catching himself about a hundred feet from Goten. Gohan turned and flew back up at Prism in time to see him launch a massive red beam of ki down at him. He stopped quickly and cupped his hands by his side as the wave of energy rapidly approached him. "Kaaaa.....Meeeee....Haaaaa.....Meeee...HAAAA!!!!!"

He thrust his hands forward launching the bright blue wave of energy up to counter Prisms attack as the other three fighters watched him from below, ready to move in and help should anything go wrong. Prisms attack was slowly being pushed back toward him by the Kamehameha, and Gohan couldn't help but grin. /If this hits him the fights over...there's no way he'll survive it!!!/

With that thought in his mind, Gohan screamed as he pushed all of the energy he had into the beam, launching it quickly back at Prism.

Everyone watched in shock as Prism pulled one of his hands away from his red beam, charging a second identical attack in it. He thrust that attack into the original, merging the two together as they began to rip through the Kamehameha and head straight back at Gohan. Everyones eyes widened as the Kamehameha vanished and Gohan was engulfed, vanishing in the bright red beam of energy. The beam continued down past everyone, slamming into the ground below with a massive explosion that shook the entire area violently. Pan quickly turned down toward where a crater was becoming visible as the smoke from the blast cleared. "Daddy!!!!!"

She flew down toward the center of the crater while Uub and Gohan just stared down in shock. Goten didn't know what to do and so he just watched Pan as she flew down after him. "G...Gohan...I...can't sense him..."

Goten was brought back to reality as he sensed Uubs power jump as he lunged in at Prism. He began rapidly slamming his fists into Prisms chest, knocking the creature back slightly but not having nearly the effect that he had intended. Prism brought his leg up slamming his large foot across Uubs face knocking him up into the clouds. He didn't turn fast enough to block the punch Goten had thrown at the side of his head though, and was knocked toward the ground.

He hit the ground hard just outside the massive crater that his beam had formed as Goten landed on his feet looking at him. Prism managed to pull himself back onto his feet as he glared at Goten. The two of them suddenly blurred from sight as several small craters began forming all over the area, the only evidence to the naked eye that the two were even fighting. By this point Uub had regained control of himself and was floating above the ground and was watching the two fight. "This isn't looking good..."

The two fighters suddenly reappeared, Goten having his face planted in the dirt with one of Prisms huge feet on the back of his head driving him further into the ground. "Goten!" Uub yelled as he flew down taking a swing at Prisms head.

Prism had seen him coming though and simply swatted him away with the back of one of his hands. Uub slammed through a giant rock blowing it into thousands of tiny pieces. Uub looked up as he heard Pan screaming and saw her slam her foot across Prisms face, catching him off guard and knocking him off of Goten.

She landed on her feet by Gotens feet as he began to pull himself out of the dirt. His eyes widened as he looked up at her, her golden hair blowing lightly in the wind as her light blue eyes stared at Prism. He opened her mouth to ask her about Gohan, but then realized what her incentive for becoming a Super Saiyan had been, and knew that he was gone.

Goten climbed onto his feet standing beside Pan, watching Prism walking slowly toward the two of them. He cupped his hands and began charging a Kamehameha, Pan glanced at him for a moment and then began doing the same thing. As Prism approached them, the two of them thrust their arms forward at him. "KAMEHAMEHA!!!!!!!"

The beams launched forward and swirled around each other for a moment before merging into one. Prism outstretched his arms in front of him, holding the beam away but being pushed back from the force. There was a flash of red as a beam identical to the one that had killed Gohan began to push the Double Kamehameha back at the two of them. The power of Prisms beam was slightly greater than the Kamehameha's, and the attack was starting to fade away.

Seconds before the red beam completely overtook the Kamehameha, a golden beam of energy slammed into Prisms back causing him to lose his footing. His beam of energy vanished and the Kamehameha washed over him, after a moment he vanished into the energy.

Goten, Pan and Uub all looked as Trunks descended to the ground near them. He stared at Pan for a second, being shocked to see her as a Super Saiyan, then directed his gaze to Goten. "Dende told me you needed help...where's Gohan?"

Goten lowered his head looking at the ground. "He...didn't make it..."

Trunks was too shocked to say anything for a moment, and before he could he quickly spun around looking in the direction he had come from. "Damnit...looks like I was followed!"

The others all looked up to sense another of the Prisms flying toward them, and they could feel that it was slightly stronger than the one that they had just finished. Trunks looked over at Goten. "Let's finish this one fast, then we can go help the others!"

Goten nodded and walked up beside Trunks as the two of them got into the fusion position. They got halfway through the dance before a ball of energy slammed into each of them knocking them aside. Everyone turned to see the Prism that they had thought they just killed climb out of the rubble, his eyes glowing blood red. Trunks got back onto his feet and looked at Pan and Uub. "Hold him off so we can fuse!"

The two of them nodded and lunged at Prism, their auras flaring wildly around them. They began hitting him with weak but fast attacks, spinning through the air as they hit him to avoid any attacks he sent at them. They jumped back each throwing a large ball of energy at him, which hit him in the chest and exploded before he even knew they were coming. When the smoke cleared Pan and Uub were now floating high in the air, and standing on the ground where they had been was Gotenks, already powered up to SSJ2.

He pointed at Prism with a huge, stupid looking grin on his face. "Alright bastard...let's dance!!!"

Gotenks vanished and almost simultaneously appeared in front of Prism, slamming his leg into the creatures face. Prism was sent flying back, but quickly caught himself in the air. The two then charged in at each other fighting at blinding speeds.

As Gotenks and Prism began trading blows, Pan and Uub spun around quickly as they sensed the other Prism landing behind them. Uub glanced over at Pan for a second, then looked quickly back to the second Prism. "Gotenks may be strong...but he can't beat them both at once, we'll have to hold this one off while he destroys the other one!"

Pan nodded and then flew at the second Prism, Uub following close behind. As the two reached him they both slammed their fists into his face at the same time, knocking him hard into his back. Pan then flew up into the air and began charging another Kamehameha while Uub went back in at Prism repeatedly kicking him in the chest. Pan was seconds away from firing the Kamehameha when both Prisms suddenly stopped fighting and completely froze.

Pan, Uub, and Gotenks all looked at the two of them totally confused as they looked off in the distance, then the three of them sensed it as well. Two massive powers were heading straight for them, one seeming to be chasing the other. After a moment they all saw a large cloud of dust and dirt coming straight for them incredibly quickly, the three Z Fighters moved quickly enough but the Prisms weren't quite as lucky.

Vegeta appeared standing behind the Prisms with his arms out at his side, having clotheslined the two of them. They were both laying in the ground motionless as Vegeta looked around at the rest of the fighters smirking. His expression changed as he turned around, the second power they had sensed had caught up.

A third Prism appeared standing at the feet of the other two glaring at Vegeta. This one was noticeably larger than the other two, and at least twice as strong as the two of them combined. He looked over his shoulder at Gotenks with a serious expression on his face. "Go to the next level and then help me with this..."

He then looked over his other shoulder at Pan and Uub. "You two just stand back and don't get involved!"

Gotenks obeyed and powered up to SSJ3, then landed on the ground standing beside Vegeta. The two of them got ready to attack, when Prism suddenly shot upward quickly leaving sight. Gotenks looked up after him confused. "What the hell?"

Vegeta glanced up as well. "Is he running away? He just left the atmosphere..."

Gotenks sighed and shook is head. "And here I was hoping for a good fight..."

Everyone looked as Yamcha and Tien landed on the ground near them all with large grins on their faces. Vegeta scowled at them and yelled. "What are you doing here?!?! Where is the creature you were fighting!?!"

The two of them walked over to the rest of the group as Yamcha spoke up. "It took some effort...but we took care of that little problem without any help from you Saiyans."

In a flash of light Vegeta turned back into his normal form glancing around at everyone else. One by one they all left their super forms. Pan looked up at the sky with a worried look on her face. "Can it really be over?"

Vegeta scoffed. "It's simple...that thing realized it couldn't beat us and took off, it was a coward."

Suddenly the group felt a new power approaching from the direction that Yamcha and Tien had come from. The two Humans recognized the power instantly and looked that way in disbelief. "But...but we killed it!" They both said at almost the exact same time.

After a moment the Prism was floating above them glaring down, but they could all sense that he was far weaker than any of the others had been. The two Prisms that Vegeta thought he had finished suddenly got up and floated into the air as well and all three starting circling around, not even looking at the Z Fighters. In the center of their circle the fourth Prism, the strongest of them that Vegeta claimed had run away, appeared looking down at them. The other three started circling closer and closer to him, until the reached him and the fighters were blinded by a brilliant flash of light.

All of the warriors powered up into the highest form they could reach as the light cleared, revealing a solid black version of Prism with red eyes that seemed to pierce right through them as he glared down. Vegeta scowled for a second, but his expression shifted completely as Prism flared his aura. "His power...it's massive...we...we don't stand a chance!"
