Betrayal***
"Gohan!" yelled Videl, as she witnessed the assault on her friendly rival.
"GOHAN!!!" yelled Juuban, the mystrious "meatball-haired" girl.
Things started simple enough.
With the selection of fighters, and whom they would be sparring against complete, the so-called "World Tournament" began. The first match was between the former monk Krillan and a rather gigantic man named Pintar, who tried to bully his way throughout the match. Needless to say, Krillan, who fought the likes of Frieza and Cell, was not impressed.
BAM!
"And the winner is…KRILLAN!" yelled Gordan the announcer.
"That was some match, Gordan!" yelled Mina "It just goes to show that size does not matter. And now, we must go to a station break for these sponsored messages…"
"Way to go, Krillan!" yelled Goku.
"Ah, it wasn't much to it," Krillan responded, as he went back to the waiting room.
Meanwhile, Ranma Saotome, perhaps Earth's greatest, HUMAN martial arts master, was staring intently at the two guys with the fancy "M" tattooed on their foreheads. Traveling with his sparring partners Son Goku and Makoto Lyta Kino has allowed him to reach a level that rivaled the potential of the gods themselves, so he was a good judge of character. What Ranma felt from those two shook him to the core.
"You're ready, Ranma?"
"Oh, Lyta," Ranma said, as he shook himself out of his sensing. "Yeah, I guess. Hey, how come you didn't enter the tournament?"
"I just want to hang out with some old friends, that's all. I mean, honestly, just because I'm a martial artist, that doesn't mean I need to spar all the time, Mr. Ranma ("I-need-to-prove-myself-all-the-time") Saotome."
"Hey, when you're me, you got to strive for the best."
"Sure, sure. Between you, me and Goku, being the best is ALL relative."
"Ha. Ha."
"Look, I'm going to get something to eat, you want anything?"
While Ranma gave his long list of eats, the match between the mysterious Shin and Piccolo began. Strangely, minutes within the fight, Piccolo forfeited the match.
"Ha!" Vigeta smirked. "You won't catch me bowing out!"
"Piccolo, you're okay?" asked Gohan.
"It's…nothing," said the Namek, as he left the waiting room.
"That's odd," Krillan interjected.
Then, the next match came down to Videl, the daughter of Terry ("Mr. Satan") Hercule, and some average fighter named Spopovich.
"Begin!" yelled Gordan.
The fight began simple enough. Thanks to Gohan's training, Videl was delivering some impressive moves.
POW!
Unfortunately, one of her blows twisted Spopovich's neck. Down the fighter went.
"Oh my goodness!" yelled Mina.
"With the apparent death of Spopovich, Videl is disqualified."
Meanwhile, Ranma took a hard look at the downed fighter.
"He's alive," Ranma said quietly.
"What was that?" Krillan asked.
Soon enough, Spopovich slowly stood up, and twisted his neck back to normal. With everyone stunned, Spopovich began to fight back with furious fury. It had gotten wierder when Videl, having learned how to fly, tried to get away. Unfortunately, Spopovich flew after the girl. Videl, in shock, was struck back down. Then, as a show of dominance, Spopovich begin toying with her.
"Videl!!!" Gohan yells, as he turns into his Super Sayajin form. Then, he proceeds to jump right into the ring.
"Don't," Goku says, as he holds his son back.
"You don't understand!" Gohan yelled.
However, before anyone could do anything, Yammu, the other guy with the fancy "M" on his forehead, calls his partner to end the match. So, with a grunt, Spopovich casually tosses Videl out of the ring.
"And…the winner is Spopovich," Gordan annouced weakly.
"Hopefully, other warriors will have more restraint in their fights," Mina said.
Meanwhile, Juuban returns from the ladies' locker room. She was a bit nervous about her upcoming match with Ranma, but she was collected enough to go through the match.
"Hello, Usagi" said a voice.
Juuban turns to see a rather handsome man. She had seen him earlier throughout the day.
"Who?" Juuban asked.
"You are my beloved Usagi," the man said. "It's me, Momaru."
"My…my name is Juuban."
"No, it's not. If you come with me, I can help you recover your memories."
While Juuban wanted tyo knw more about her past, she was not about to go with some stranger.
"That's okay. I can figure things out on my own."
"Usagi, I insist," Momaru said, as he quickly grabbed Juuban's arm.
From within her being, an urge came up.
"PERVERT!" Juuban said, as she slapped the strange man. He force of the blow sent the man reeling to the ground.
"S…sorry," Juuban said, before running away.
Momaru wiped the blood from his mouth, as he picked himself up.
"You WILL be mine, again," Momaru said, as he made sure that his Majin symbol was covered up by his tuft of hair on his head.
Back at the ring, Gohan, who was still upset about what had happened to Videl, was more than ready to defeat his next foe. Kibito, who merely looked down on Gohan, asked the demi-Sayajin to use his full power. Smirking, Gohan obliged Kibito's wishes by going to the second level "Super Sayajin" level.
And that's when all hell broke loose.
"NOW!" yelled Spopovich, as both he and Yammu jumped Gohan from behind. Then, while one grabbed Gohan, the other stuck a needle-like object into Gohan's stomach.
"YAAAAAAAAAAH!" Gohan yelled in pain.
"GOHAN!" yelled everyone.
"Stand back!" yelled the mysterious Shin.
And when Videl and Juuban returned from wherever they went to, both were horrified at what they saw.
And now, we return to the present.
"Goku, we got to do something," Ranma yelled. "I-"
"Do nothing," Kibito said.
"And who the hell are YOU?"
But before Kibito could answer, everyone felt a massive power surge…and it was coming from Juuban!
"No…NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" the girl yelled.
A golden aura, not unlike a Super Sayajin's, formed around Juuban. The ground began to shake, as Juuban's hair waved in the air.
"My god!" Vegeta yelled. "What power!"
"It's…it's," began Piccolo. "It's not unlike the power of-"
"Cell," Goku said.
"What's going on?!" yelled Gordan.
"We better get out of here!" Mina yelled. In the back of her mind, she wanted to find Lyta and Ami so they can get "suited up".
Then, before it was all over, Juuban's eyes turned from blue (left eye) and purple (right eye) to green (both eyes)…and her hair spiked (not unlike a hedge hog). Her transformation was now COMPLETE.
"I won't let you hurt Gohan!" Juuban yelled, as she rushed towards the sparring field.
"Whoa!" Krillan said. "I barely saw her move!"
"What-?" Spopovich said, as both he and Yammu felt a world of pain.
Videl, not really understanding what was going on, rushed to see if Gohan was okay.
Juuban continued her fury, until she felt a pinprick sensation on her neck.
"Oh…" Juuban said, as unconsciousness to hold. Just as quickly, Juuban reverted back to her normal state. The next thing everyone knew, a man, where a tuxedo outfit, cape and mask, swoops down and removes the rose imbedded in Juuban's neck.
"I told you that you will be mine," the man said, as he picks up the unconscious girl. "Spopvich! Yammu! You have enough energy?"
"Yeah, we do," said Spopovich, through gritted teeth.
"Good. Let's get out of here."
And the three took to the air.
"Gohan? Gohan!"
"Juuban…Videl…"
"Damn," Ranma said, as Lyta came running back from the concessions stand.
"What happened?"
"Juuban's gone. And I have a bad feeling that this is the beginning to a whole lot of mess."
Tbc.
