The next round

Trunks was rather pleased with himself. He was ahead already. Trunks knew the next two rounds would be just as simple as the first. He had been training under gravity for many years.

Inuyasha, Koga and Miroku had never been near a gravity machine… nor do they even know what it looks like.

Inuyasha walked up to Kagome. " Alright what the heck were you talking about the second round being under gravity. How is that even possible?"

" Oh it's possible alright… I should know. I was the first Saiyan to train with it." Goku said walking over with a capsule in his hand.

" Oh really…" Koga commented.

Trunks once again smiled. " What are you smiling at?" Inuyasha growled.

" Goku here isn't the only person who's been training under gravity. I have too."

The group was in shock once again. " Oh damn it! Is there anything this kid CAN'T do?" Inuyasha thought.

" Shoot… I'm already in last place right now. How the heck am I going to bet this guy in a game he's played many times before?" Koga thought.

" Drat this boy is sure talented… I wish I could be like that." Miroku said.

" Uh Kagome… so where is this machine?" Inuyasha asked.

" It's right here." Goku said. holding up the capsule

" It's in there!" All the others shouted.

" Yep." Goku goes and opens it up. In a big ball of smoke. After the smoke cleared a big house like structure appeared. The group was speechless.

Trunks smiled once again. " What's the matter? You never see an object come out of no where before?"

" No we haven't."

" Well that's too bad isn't it… now I have the total advantage in this event."

" Don't get so cocky you brat!" Inuyasha shouted.

" There isn't a reason for me not to be cocky. I can beat all of you hands down."

" Are all you guys finished your posturing?" Goku asked.

" Quite finished. Shall we Goku?" Trunks said.

" Yes." Goku took off in the direction of the building. Trunks was right behind him. The others followed them. Kagome stood outside of the building. She knew that Goku was better for the job of big referee because he could easy stand up 510 times gravity.

Inuyasha and the others couldn't believe it. They had never seen something like this before. " So what now?" Koga asked.

" Now we wait for directions from Kagome."

Kagome stood at the door. " Alright here are the ground rules. We will start with 2 times Earth's gravity and move up."

" Kagome! You serious! 2 TIMES!"

" You heard me Trunks. These guys haven't trained like you. So we are going to start out slow."

" Can I come back when it's ten times?"

" No you have to be hear for each stage. And if your not I'll take that as your giving up."

" Fine."

" Alright Goku… you take it from here."

Goku closed the door. He walked over to the machine and pulged in 2 times Earth's gravity. For Trunks it was nothing. You could tell the others were feeling it.

" Hey Brat! What's wrong?"

" I was going to ask you the same question Inuyasha. You seem to under a lot of pressure."

" And you look like your not under any."

" That's because I'm not. 2 times gravity is nothing for a Saiyan."

Inuyasha looked over at Koga. He wasn't having much trouble.

" Hey… I don't feel that bad." Koga said.

" That's because you have Saiyan blood in you. You will start to feel it when we get to ten times gravity. That is the gravity of our home world. We all had problems at first but I think you can manage."

An hour goes by and the group was up to ten times gravity.

" So your all still here… that surprising." Trunks said.

" I told you punk I'm not going to give in to you and I meant it… Kagome loves me… not you." Inuyasha said.

" Hey mutt face… I told you Kagome is my women!"

" Will the two of you show some restraint." Miroku said.

At this point all of their bodies were under the great stress of 10 times gravity. Miroku was bearly conscience. He was on one knee. He was having a hard time breathing. Trunks' eyes narrowed evilly.

" Hey Miroku… you alright over there." Inuyasha asked.

" No I'm not."

" Hey you Goku! Let Miroku leave."

" He has to say it first Inuyasha." Trunks said.

" Say what?"

" He surrenders. After that he can leave."

" Hey he's bearly able to breathe and you want him to say he gives up?"

" It's the rules Inuyasha."

" Ok I give." Miroku said.

Goku walks over to Miroku. " Not bad Monk. Here let me give you a hand."

Goku carefully takes Miroku out. Aroku, Sango, Shippo, Homaru, and Kagome were outside. Miroku finally was able to breathe again. Goku walked back into the building. Aroku ran over to his father shouting,

" FATHER ARE YOU ALRIGHT?"

Miroku plopped on the ground. " Ya I'm fine."

" How did you do Miroku?" Sango asked.

" I got up to ten times normal gravity. Koga isn't having such a hard time. Inuyasha will be giving in pretty soon and Trunks is standing there and by the looks of it… he isn't under any strain at all."

" You serious?" Shippo said.

" Yes I am."

" Well Miroku… Trunks is a master of gravity. He has been training under high amounts of gravity since he was 8."

" Eight! That's amazing." Sango said.

" Yes it is. But that isn't as amazing as his maxim gravity level." Kagome said.

" What is it?" Miroku asked.

" 510 times normal gravity."

The group was in shock. Kagome looked over in the direction of the door.

" Oh Inuyasha be careful. Trunks isn't going to let you win easily."

Time seemed to going slow inside the room. Inuyasha and Koga were having a hard time handling it. Trunks once again smiled as he easily walked over to the controls. He stared at it and laughed. " It's only 12 times gravity and you two look like your about to quit."

" I'm not going to quit." Koga said.

" Me either. You don't deserve a girl like Kagome, Trunks." Inuyasha declared.

" I don't deserve a girl like her uh? What makes you think you deserve her? Your no better then me in our era. And if I remember what Kagome said…. You still love Kikyo."

" Why you two timing mutt face!" Koga shouted.

Trunks laughed to himself. He knew it was over. They weren't going to last if they were putting their energy into their fight. The gravity once again increased. It was now 15 times gravity. Both Koga and Inuyasha feel to the ground. They couldn't lift their bodies. Trunks found it amusing. He knew if they stayed their much longer they would pass out. And they did just that. The door opened. Goku dropped the gravity. Kagome and Miroku ran in.

" Oh no Inuyasha, Koga!" Kagome shouted. She knew they would take it too far.

Miroku walked over to the two of them. " Don't worry Kagome. They are both still breathing. They just passed out."

" Thank goodness. Well I guess we are going to have to put a hold on the contest until these two wake up."

" And that might take up to a hold day. Consitering how much stress they were under." Trunks said.

" I must agree." Goku said.

" The best thing is for them to rest. We will continue this tomorrow if we are lucky."

Hey everyone. What did you think? Not bad uh. Well anyway please review. Laters….
