Dragon Ball Spirits

Episode 26: Another Duel of Saiyan Pride

Hiei and Vegeta stare each other down as there energy continues to rise as Goten, Trunks, and Yusuke watch.

"You know, they are exactly alike, except that Hiei is shorter."

"Personality, looks, and there attitudes are uncanny."

"They're both idiots. Hey Hiei, we don't have time for this crap!"

"He must be taught that I am his superior Yusuke."

"Is that anyway to talk about your grandfather?! I'll show you were you rank little runt."

"This is what a runt can do!"

Hiei disappears and reappears behind Vegeta. Hiei tries to punch Vegeta but he dodges each punch without turning around and then kicks Hiei in the stomach. Hiei bounces back then recovers and rushes Vegeta again. Both of them lock up in a fury of punches in kicks. Both of them seem to be equal until Vegeta kicks Hiei in the head sending him to the ground.

"Get up you little fool! I know that you are capable of much more than this."

"You know nothing of what I'm capable of."

Hiei unwraps his arm and a huge black fire dragon bursts from the dragon tattoo on his arm.

"Is that it?"

"No, this is it."

The Dragon wraps around Hiei and then he absorbs it into his body. His aura turns dark and his spirit energy rises dramatically.

"I see. You've used that dragon to raise your spirit energy, but I wonder how long it will last."

"Long enough to run your corpse into the ground!"

Hiei rushes Vegeta and both of them fight at the same strength. Hiei pulls back and raises his hand towards Vegeta and a dark fire shrouds his hand.

"DRAGON OF THE DARKNESS FLAME!!!"

A black fire dragon bigger than any other Hiei has summoned heads straight at Vegeta and totally swallows him.

"Hey Hiei, don't kill my dad!"

"He's not dead."

"Spirit Flash!"

Vegeta charges a huge spirit blast and rips through the dragon and knocks Hiei back.

"What?! How can he have such great spirit energy?"

"I thought my dad gave Yusuke all of his spirit energy."

"He must have given half to Vegeta and half to Yusuke."

"Time to end this!"

Vegeta reaches out his hand and charges his next attack.

"Big Bang Attack!"

"Dragon of the Darkness Flame!"

Both attacks collide and Vegeta's breaks through Hiei's dragon and blasts him into the ground. Hiei lies on the ground barely moving as Vegeta descends from the sky.

"You are very powerful, but remember that I am superior."

"I will get stronger and one day I will defeat you as badly as you defeated me."

"Heh, words mean nothing to me."

"Dad, you didn't have to beat him to a pulp like that."

Yusuke walks over to Hiei.

"Like lying on your face Hiei?"

"Are you going to kick me while I'm down as well Yusuke?"

"Nah, I'm just going to take some pity on you, here."

Yusuke hands Hiei a senzu bean, but Hiei just barely stands up and wobbles around a little.

"I don't need your pity. I just need to….ugh."

Hiei falls onto the ground and then eats the senzu. In an instant Hiei pops up.

"I just need to train. Goodbye."

Hiei turns away and disappears.

"You better be back on time!"

"You need to train as well. Tell me, who are we fighting against in this Dark Tournament?"

"A Saiyan named Kabbich. He's the one who sent these other two Saiyans after me and Hiei. He also stole my friend Keiko. I swear to god, that damn girl always needs to be saved!"

"Kabbich is still alive!"

"What do you know about him dad?"

"I remember my father had sentenced him to death for trying to overthrow him with his clone Saiyan army. Freiza sent in his elite force to destroy his army and my father wanted him executed, but it seems he's still alive. I will kill him!"

"Easy there big guy. I'll be the one to kill Kabbich."

"Care to see which one of us will get that honor."

"Sure, I got the balls, but do you have enough energy to defeat me?"

Goten separates them before they start to fight.

"Hey guys, we don't need anymore of this crap! We need to train for this tournament."

"I don't really need to train that much. This tournament just has the top of the demon trash as the competition."

Hiei lands on top of the lookout where he meets Piccolo and Dende.

"I need to use the Time Chamber again."

"Fine, but remember you only have a few hours left to remain in the room or you will be sealed in forever."

"Whatever."

As Hiei seals himself in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to train, Yusuke and the others also part ways to prepare for the tournament. What kind of evil plans does Kabbich have?
