Chapter 42: Energy Crisis
Pan glared at Capricornus. "You better leave my kitty alone!" Her energy slowly rose. "Don't make me mad!"
Capricornus smiled and readied himself. "Bring it!"
Behind Pan, David glared at Capricornus. 'This girl IS strong, but she can't defeat this guy.' He looked to the sky. 'Princess, where ARE you?'
~*~*~*
Back at the party, Gohan looked up abruptly. The other Z fighters had knowing looks on their faces.
Bulma looked around at them. "What's going on?" She asked.
Vegeta looked at her. "Its Pan. Her energy just took a sharp increase."
Chichi looked worried. "You don't think she's in trouble, do you?"
"Its hard to tell, but it can't hurt to take a look." Goku said.
The others nodded in agreement.
They took a few minutes to get organized, and Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Trunks, Goten, and Piccolo flew from Capsule Corps.
~*~*~*
Capricornus smiled as his compass beeped rapidly. 'Perfect, their coming!'
He turned his back to the girl and walked away, quite pleased with himself.
Pan, still too young to quite understand evil monsters and grown ups, just relaxed her energy and took David in her arms.
Capricornus reached the rock he was prevously sitting on and clipped his compass to his belt.
Pan watched in awe as the evil guy strapped bands to his arms and legs, and tied a bandana around his head.
David laid his ears back. 'What's this guy up to?'
Capricornus looked to a leafy pile a short distance away. He smiled evilly. 'I am SO ready.'
~*~*~*
Gohan looed at the ground anxieously. "Where could she be?"
Goku looked back at his son. "Calm down, it doesn't seem like she is engagged in a fight."
Vegeta looked ahead of them. "Look down there!" He pointed to a clearing below them.
In the clearing, a strange-looking man sat on a rock. A short distance away, Pan stood holding David in her arms, looking at the man on the rock.
~*~*~*
Pan looked up and around as the six fighters landed in the clearing.
Gohan ran up to her. "Pan, are you okay?"
Pan nodded and pointed at Capricornus. "He wanted to hurt my kitty, but I scared him away!"
Gohan looked suspiciously at Capricornus.
"Just who are you?" Piccolo asked him.
Capricornus smiled and stood. "Your executioner!"
Suddenly, a round band shot from the leaf pile and wrapped around Piccolo, pinning his arms to his sides.
"What is that thing?" Goten asked. He ran over to Piccolo and tried to remove the band.
"No good." Capricornus said, as a similar band enstared Goten.
Capricornus smiled as the bands started to glow. Piccolo and Goten went to their knees as their energy was drained.
The bands around Capricornus also glowed, and the other four fighters watched in horror as they sensed the stolen energy move into him.
"Haha!" Capricornus crowed. "Now, I have your energy!"
"Not for long!" Vegeta flew into the air and aimed for the energy thief. "Final Flash!"
The huge energy blast headed for Capricornus, who smiled. He crossed his arms at the wrist and laughed as the blast was absorbed.
As Vegeta watched in shock, a band caught him from behind and he dropped to the ground as his energy was drained.
Capricornus smiled. "Three down, three to go!"
Goku powered up to Super Sayian. "I don't think so!" He flew up to him to punch.
Capricornus moved his wrist band in to take the blow, and Goku felt some of his energy leave him.
Feeling weak, he jumped away, right into the path of another flying band.
"NO! Father!" Gohan yelled as he watched his father's energy drain away.
He flew to help him, unaware of the band that went after him, that is, until it wrapped around him and took his energy.
"Looks like its all up to me!" Trunks said.
~*~*~*
David watched in horror as the first five warriors fell.
'They are great fighters, but they are NOT equipped for this fight!' He thought.
'Princess, I can feel you coming, but you are still far away. I may have to help this boy until you get here. Please, forgive me for blowing our secret.'
He watched in horrror as another band flew up from behind the boy, who was unaware of its approach.
"Behind you! Hit the dirt!" He screamed.
The boy did as was told. The band flew harmlessly over him. He stood up and everyone looked at the cat in shock.
Capricornus didn't look shocked, however. "So, you decided to show your true colors, huh?"
David glared at him. "You will not win this. Me and the princess will make sure of that!"
He then turned to the boy. "Listen, your energy structure is not capable of taking this guy on." The gold mark on his forehead glowed. "Use this to fight."
Trunks looked at the cat and he suddenly felt a weight on his back. He brought his hand up nad behind his shoulder. His hand clasped around something. He grabbed it and pulled. A sword was in his hand.
~*~*~*
Trunks looked at the weapon. "Wow." He looked at Capricornus and smiled. "Now, I'm ready!"
He flew at the monster. He slashed, it was blocked. Slash. Block.
"You have no business with a sword." Capricornus said. He ducked down under a slash and jumped away; just as a new band wrapped around Trunks.
He felt his body weaken. The sword in his hand was heavy. He dropped it and fell to his knees, cursing.
~*~*~*
David watched in shock as the boy failed. 'Now, what?'
Then, a familiar presence went through his whiskers.
~*~*~*
Capricornus looked extremly pleased. "Now, all that's left is to finsh you, and."
"I DON'T THINK SO!!!" A new voice said.
"Who was that?" He looked all around.
A finger whistle blew. "Up here, loser!"
The entire group looked up to the top of a nearby cliff. There, a familiar siloutte stood, long hair blowing in the breeze.
Capricornus smiled. 'Now, the REAL fight begins!'
Ends chapter 42
