Dragon Ball Spirits
Episode 25: Kabbich's Challenge
"Dammit! Can't she go one without getting into danger! Let's go!"
"Stop right there dimwit!"
"This better be good Grandma!"
"Just stop and think about what happened one year ago."
"Well, I uh, don't remember. Oh! The Dark Tournament! So you think some psycho demon has kidnapped Keiko to force us to compete in the Dark Tournament. I never wanted to compete in that again!"
"That doesn't matter. That tournament will haunt you for the rest of your life."
"So what are we going to do now?"
"Just sit down and shut up until whatever kidnapped her makes a move."
"And just what happens if you're wrong about this."
Shizuru senses someone coming.
"He's coming!"
"Hey! I thought I killed him!"
Yusuke and the others run outside as Kabbich lands.
"Remember me Yusuke Urameshi?"
"I remember blowing your ass across the forest and leaving it for death."
"You will shut your impudent mouth! As you may know, your little girlfriend was kidnapped by one of my minions. If you want her back you will have to win her back at the next Dark Tournament."
"Do you want to know what happened to the last idiot who roped me into that stupid tournament? He's lying deep fried at the same placed I left him."
"Hmmf, Toguro was an arrogant fool. I won't make the same mistake. I will kill you whenever I can."
Suddenly, Hiei jumps out of tree with his sword drawn and attacks Kabbich.
"I would stop right now Hiei or Yukina will die."
"Damn you!'
"What's up with that Hiei?"
"This bastard is this one who sent those two steroid freaks after us and he kidnapped Yukina."
"You really are determined to die."
"I'll see you in three months at Hanging-neck Island. Goodbye."
Kabbich casually flies away as Yusuke and Hiei stand there furious.
"I would love to just feed him to my dragon and keep his head as a trophy."
"You'll get your chance Hiei. Right now we need to find Kurama and Kuwabara."
A few hours later, Yusuke, Hiei, Kuwabara and Kurama join with Trunks, Goten and the others at Capsule Corp.
"So that's the situation. I won't let any of them hurt Yukina."
"You won't be able to do anything."
"Yeah Hiei, but we need a fifth member. Grandma won't be able to keep up this time around."
"Why not Genkai?"
"You're an idiot Kuwabara. We can't ask grandma to enter another Dark Tournament plus she gave me all of her power."
The door opens as a familiar face walks in.
"I believe I can fill that spot."
"Dad!?"
"Vegeta! It's about time you came back! I can't believe you would just leave me and Trunks like that! What compelled you to return?"
"I was traveling the galaxy trying to find my place as the prince of Saiyans. I trained at the new Saiyan colony, but all their warriors were weak."
Hiei walks up to Vegeta and stares at him with Vegeta staring back at him.
"What the hell are they doing?"
"Wow, they are so alike."
A surprised expression crosses Hiei's face.
"You have spirit energy. You must have found some spirit senzu."
"No, it's my own energy. Ever since Kakarrot disappeared I have tried to reach a new level of power he couldn't reach. A few months ago I was training in the mountains when Kakarrot appeared before me. He told me about everything that was happening back on Earth including this Dark Tournament that was coming. He gave me this little bean that unleashed the spirit power within me. Now I will once again become the strongest Saiyan."
"Nice little speech "grandfather". But Yusuke and I are stronger than you."
"You are still young and naïve. My power has far greater depths than what you could comprehend at your level."
"Care to try me?"
"Fine."
Both of them fly out as Bulma tries to chase them.
"Dammit Vegeta! Get your ass back here! God they are so alike."
Vegeta and Hiei fly out the building and head straight for an open field miles away. Yusuke and the others follow after them. They both land and prepare to fight.
"Alright grandson, show me how much of a Saiyan you really are."
Hiei removes his cloak and his bandana revealing his Jagan eye. The Jagan opens and he transforms into a Super Saiyan. He charges his spirit energy and the ground starts to shake.
"Is that your best? This is what a true Super Saiyan can become."
Vegeta transforms into Super Saiyan 2 and causes larger tremors than Hiei's.
"My dad always was a show off."
"Yeah, but both of them are holding back. So what you do think Yusuke? Is Vegeta good enough to be on your team?"
"We'll just see."
Vegeta has returned the Earth and with Dark Tournament and the fates of loved ones hanging in the balance, can Hiei and Vegeta end this rivalry and save Yukina and Keiko?
