Chapter 13: The Real Tournament Begins

It's been a day since the Eliminations rounds ended. And it's now the day of the real tournament. Fewer teams remained. Team Earth, our heroes and Team Aquan Kotari's team were there. Goku looked up at the stage where Moritor walked up onto. He looked at all of the fighters and made eye contact with Goku.

"Fighters! Congratulations! You have made it to the Tournament rounds! You may do anything you want to win this tournament! But the only way you're going to win it is to kill your opponent!" Moritor shouted out. Goku stared up at Moritor more like a glare.

"What does he think we are? Murderers?" Pan asked looking up at her father. Gohan looked down at Pan.

"He's the only murderer here Pan." Gohan told her placing his hand on her shoulder. Pan smiled as she nodded her head.

"The winner of this tournament will leave here with heir planet untouched till the next tournament comes around. The losers will lose their planet once they touched ground. Now, the tournament will start tomorrow giving all of you fighters a good day of rest. You may train on the mats or visit your partners in the Regeneration Chambers. Do what ever you wish." Moritor walked off stage. Goku watched him. He felt like something should be done about this.

Our team heads back to their room. "I think something should be done." Goku started off sitting down onto the couch.

"Like what Kakkarot?" Vegeta asked as he leaned up against a wall by Goku.

"I don't know. But something needs to be done." Goku answered as he looked at Vegeta.

"Well we can't do anything till we know what." Piccolo said.

"I think we should wait for Taylor. You know how angry she gets." Pan stated. Goten shivered a little.

"Ugh… man. She's got the anger of mom." Goten said.

"That's all we need… another Chichi." Vegeta said as he walked toward the door. "I'm going to go train, I don't know about you idiots." Vegeta opened the door in came Kotari. Vegeta looked at her as she walked past him and into her room slamming the door shut. Goten winced as the door hit.

"Looks like someone got on her nerves." Goten said.

"Sis wait!" Guru called out as he entered the room. He sighed once he saw his sister Kotari had gone into her room. "She'll never get it." Guru added softly as he made his way up the stairs.

"Um… family problems I take it." Trunks said as he looked a little confused. Goku stood up glancing at the door and then up the stairs. He looked forward and headed for the door.

"Dad, where are you going?" Gohan asked.

"I'm going to train for a little and then going to go see Taylor." Goku said as he stepped outside of the room with Vegeta stepping onto the platform of the hover pod.

"Wait up Grandpa! I'll go to!" Pan shouted.

"Why don't we all go?" Goten asked.

"Good idea Goten." Trunks said. Gohan smiled.

"It's been awhile since Goten's had a good idea." Gohan said as he walked toward the door. Goten looked at his older brother his hands onto his hips.

"What does that supposed to mean?" Goten asked rudely.

"Stop bickering and let's go!" Vegeta shouted. Everyone left the room stepping onto the hover pod floating to the ground. Kotari came out of her room soon after. She looked around making sure no one was around. She then made her way up the stairs toward her brother's room. She pressed her ear onto it as she heard voices.

"Kotari's starting to catch onto us." Guru said.

"Don't worry. She won't find out." Said who ever Guru was talking to. Kotari kept on listening till someone came toward the door. He eyes widened as she jumped back running down the stairs.

Vegeta and Trunks were trying on one side of the mat as Gohan and Pan had the other. Goku sat down wiping his face on a towel that was wrapped around his neck. His shirt rested on the ground next to him as did his shoes he continued to wipe the sweat as he looked up at his son Goten also wiping his face.

"You gotten better Goten." Goku said to his son. Goten looked at his dad and smiled.

"Thanks dad." Goten replied. Goku nodded his head as he turned and looked at Vegeta, Trunks, Gohan, and Pan train. He smiled to see how Pan had progressed in her training. Goku then stood up slipping on his shoes. Piccolo turned and looked at Goku.

"Where are you going Goku?" Piccolo asked. Goku turned and smiled. He grabbed onto both sides of the towel around his neck.

"Going to go see Taylor." Goku answered. He walked forward heading to the Regeneration Chambers. He passed Team Aquan. But he stopped turning to watch them. On the training mat was Talli and her son Jakx.

Jakx was doing back flips dodging his mother's fists. He then pushed himself on his hands spinning in the air hitting his mother in the chest. She stumbled back grabbing onto her son's legs. She then spun him around and let go. Jakx went flying towards Goku. "GAH!" Goku was hit in the chest by Jakx's hard head. They both laid on the ground with swirly eyes. Talli jumped off of the mat as she ran toward Goku and Jakx as did Borox, Loji, Kui, and Jinx ran over.

"Are you all right Goku?" Talli asked as she lifted up her soon off of him. Goku sat up rubbing his head from hitting it on the ground.

"Ow… yeah I'm fine." Goku answered, "What about Jakx?"

"Oh I'm fine." Jakx answered Goku. Goku nodded his head as he stood up. Borox looked at Goku seeing the sweat on his chest and face.

"Have you been training?" Borox asked. Goku smiled and nodded his head.

"Yeah with my son Goten." Goku answered. Loji walked around Goku. Goku kept his eyes on him.

"Your ki is really high. Almost as high as Borox's." Loji said.

"Loji!" Kui shouted at him. Loji looked at Kui.

"What?" he asked. Kui placed his hand over his eyes.

"You shouldn't be saying something like that you idiot!" Jinx shouted as she grabbed onto his ear dragging him away. They watched confused as Jinx dragged him back to the mat followed by Kui. Borox looked at Goku.

"How about doing a little training session with me?" Borox asked. Goku blinked. "Kotari usually trains with me but… she and Guru stormed off." he added. Goku smiled.

"Sure why not? I could use another warm up." Goku said smiling.

"My uncle is more then a warm up!" Jakx shouted. Goku looked down at him. "He's a challenge to you!" he shouted pointing at his face. Goku placed a nervous look on his face from Jakx yelling.

"Heh… really?" he asked. Jakx nodded his head. "Well then let's see." Goku told him walking passed Talli, Jakx, and Borox walking toward the mat. Goku placed the towel on the ground as he slipped off his shoes. He stepped up onto the mat. Borox walked over taking off his dark blue tang-top. He also took off his shoes stepping onto the ring. Goku and Borox got down into their stances.

"This is going to be good." Jinx said as she let go of Loji's ear. Kui nodded his head.

"Yeah. A Saiyan vs. an Aquan." Kui said.

"Begin!" Talli shouted. Goku and Borox lunged at each other. They both disappeared at the last second before each of their fists hit each other.

Goku and Borox then reappeared in the air exchanging fists, kicks, and ki beams. Soon Goku and Borox landed back on the mat. Goku stood up right.

"You're good." Goku said. Borox smirked.

"Who said I was done?" he asked. Goku raised an eyebrow as Borox lunged at him. Goku grabbed onto Borox's fist as Borox grabbed onto Goku's fist. They both stared at each other in the eye till Borox swung his knee up. Goku flipped still holding onto Borox's fist. Goku placed his feet on the mat behind Borox as he lifted him into the air about to throw him down till Borox hit Goku in the back of his head. Goku stumbled forward as he turned around swinging his leg hitting Borox. Borox slid back looking at Goku seeing the seriousness in his eyes. Borox smiled. "Now that was a good training session." Goku blinked and then smiled.

"Yeah. You're pretty good." Goku said. Borox nodded his head as sweat dripped down his face. He walked over to goku and held out his hand.

"And so aren't you my friend." Borox said. Goku looked at Borox's hand and shook it.

"Thanks for the great warm up." Goku told him letting go of his hand. "I better be off now. I was supposed to go see Taylor." Jakx looked a little confused as he stepped onto the ring.

"Where is she?" he asked. Goku looked down at him.

"In the Regeneration Chambers. She got seriously hurt yesterday in our last Elimination Round." Goku answered.

"Is she all right?" Borox asked. Goku looked up at him and nodded his head.

"Yeah, she's fine. She's recovering right now." Goku answered as he jumped off of the ring.

"Do you want one of us to come with you?" Talli asked. Goku turned and looked at her. "To show you the way?" she added. Goku smiled shaking his head.

"No. Kotari took me there. I know where it is." Goku answered her slipping on his shoes and placing the towel back around his neck grabbing both sides. He walked away raising his hand into the air. "Bye!" he shouted out as he disappeared. Jinx looked up at Borox.

"She's in the Regeneration Chambers?" she repeated.

"That's what he said." Talli said as she sat down onto the side of the ring.

"We can use this to our advantage." Loji said. Borox shook his head as he slipped his tang-top on and his shoes.

"No." Borox replied.

"Why not?" Kui asked. Borox turned and looked at him.

"Because I will not mess with someone else's daughter. Especially when that person's daughter is Kotari's best friend." Borox answered. Talli looked at her older brother.

"You did it back in the past… what's the difference now?" Talli asked.

"Taylor is friends with Kotari and I will not hurt her because of that." Borox said as he wiped his face.

"She's just a Hybrid Saiyan." Loji said softly. Borox turned and looked at Loji.

"And that 'Hybrid Saiyan' is Kotari's friend!" Borox shouted at him.

Goku entered the building looking side to side for Taylor for her had forgotten her number. He finally found her. He looked up above the tank to see her number was 14.

"14. I got to remember that." Goku said to himself. Goku sat down onto a stool that was sitting in front of Taylor's tank. He looked at her to see she was still sleeping. He wondered if she knew he was there. Goku looked at the control panel to show her status. Her status showed she wasn't even a quarter healed and she was in a really deep sleep because of it. Goku looked at Taylor as he watched her sleep.

"Ah… Goku." Goku turned to see a woman. She had pale blue skin. She wore a jumpsuit that was purple. She had black with a tint of white hair.

"Um… do I know you?" he asked. The woman smiled.

"I'm you next opponent." She said. "Tajo is my name, I came from Whali." She added.

"Great to…"

"I'll crush your team tomorrow. Even if I'm the last on left." She told him as she walked away. Goku blinked a few times as he watched her walk out of the door.

"Um… okay… that was odd." Goku said. Goku looked at Taylor and smiled. "I'll tell you everything about our wins in the tournament… that is when you wake up." He said smiling. Goku stood up and walked away.

The day of rest passed, and it was time to start the real tournament. There were stands everywhere surrounding one major mat. Everyone was puzzled of the team of one. Was that girl Goku ran into at the Regeneration Chambers. The ref stood in the middle of the mat holding a microphone.

"This is the first match of the Real Tournament! The first fighters! Tajo and Goku! Fighters! Please step onto the ring!" Goku and Tajo made their way to the ring. They stood in front of each other as the ref stood in between them. "Fighters! Shake hands!" Tajo and Goku shook hands. "Now!" the ref backed away onto his platform. "BEGIN!"
