Blaze let out a huge cry of frustration and burst off towards Gohan at incredible speed, his aura was crackling high into the sky, Gohan could feel the heat from where he was, he readied himself as Blaze got closer, but before Blaze reached him, there was a searing pain all over Gohans body, it felt like he was on fire, he looked at Blaze, who just gave a smile and came even closer. The pain was getting worse, it felt as though his very bones were on fire, he fell on the ground, writhing in agony. The rest of the Changelings were just looking towards the Z Fighters with large smiles on their faces.

"What's happening to him?" screamed out Goten.

"It's quite simple really" said General Inferno slowly, "How do you think he got his name, he can manipulate heat and fire"

"What a dirty trick, how cheap, Gohan has no chance if he can't even move" said Vegeta sadly.

"Don't worry Vegeta, Gohan just has to realize one thing and that heat can't even scathe him" said Goku.

"Huh?" queried Vegeta

"Just watch, he'll figure it out"

There was a scream of pain from Gohan as Blaze punched him on the ground and left a large burn mark in the shape of a fist where he hit him.

"Boy, I told you that you couldn't beat me, if you can't handle the heat……get out of the kitchen, HAHAHA"

But Gohan just looked up at Blaze, with that sparkling gleam in his eye, he got an idea, maybe he if raised his power to its maximum, his aura would protect him from the heat.

Gohan lept up, put his hands to his side and let out a cry of anguish, a huge blue aura burst around him, reaching further up into the sky than Blazes, thick jagged blue lightning was crackling around his body, and his eyes glowed white.

"I can't feel a thing now" Gohan said coolly.

"Let's get back to our fight then….boy!" replied Blaze angrily.

The two burst towards each other, all that could be seen was a red streak and a blue streak darting around the battlefield after each other.

There was a huge large flare of energy as the two fighters came together and were locked in a game of mercy, gripping each others hands, they powered up as much as they could, Gohans blue aura melded with Blazes red, and a humongous purple flare was filling the sky as the two were giving it their all, Blaze started to over power Gohan, "You can do it Gohan, just let it loose" yelled Piccolo from the sidelines.

"He's right" thought Gohan, and with a cry of anger, he clean snapped off one of Blazes hands, there was blood spurting everywhere and Blaze was screaming out in absolute agony.

"Alright!" said Goku happily, "He's got him now"

"Pathetic" Inferno thought out aloud.

Blaze was on the ground, cringing in pain as Gohan just floated in the sky, looking down with supreme superiority.

"Finish him Gohan!" yelled out Vegeta

Gohan nodded and turned back to face Blaze, "This is it Blaze, I'm going to finish you off with my new attack"

"Don't be foolish boy, I may only have one hand, but I can still use MY ultimate attack, you better be careful"

"Bring it"

Blaze stood up and put both arms to his side, his fiery red aura burst into the sky, more ferocious than ever, at the same instant, Gohan did the very same and his blue aura flared up, "Get ready for death boy, no-one can survive this" said Blaze.

Gohan just started at him, eyes gleaming

"MAAAAAA SENNNNN KOOOOOO MEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" screamed Gohan, and at the same time Blaze let his hand fly forward as he yelled out "BLAZE BURNING BUSTER!"

A huge red energy wave was sent flying from Blaze hand, it looked like a flamethrower, roaring towards Gohan, but Gohans attack was ripping towards Blaze as well, a huge purple wave, the two met in the middle, red on purple, the explosion was massive, too huge to comprehend, both fighters were lost in smoke and rubble.

Both the Z Fighters and the Changelings were looking on with bated breath, to see who emerged the victor.

There was a large gust of wind, and the smoke was swept away from the battlefield, hovering the sky was a beaten Gohan, one eye open, whole body intact, but looking in a bad condition.

After checking out Gohan, everyone's eyes turned towards Blaze, he was lying on the ground, breathing heavily, cuts and scrapes, burns and scorches all over his body, looking very much defeated.

"Sir!" yelled out Corporal Flame abruptly, "There's trouble back at base, our presence is requested immediately"

"Alright, prepare to leave at once" said Inferno rather gruffly.

"What of Blaze?" asked Admiral Fyre

"This………" replied Inferno as he let a huge energy beam loose from his hand towards Blaze, as the smoke cleared there was not a trace left.

"Let's go" he said, and with that they all Instant Transmissioned away.

"How horrible" said Krillin in disgust.

"Forget that" replied Piccolo, "we've got to find out where they're going"

"Can you sense them Kakarot?" asked Vegeta.

"Well of course, it's faint, but yeah I fell them" said Goku

"Well then what are we waiting for, let's go"

"Alright, everyone ready?" asked Goku, as the whole group stood outside the Capsule Corp.

There was a chorus of "Yes", they all said goodbye to their families and after laying a finger each on Goku, they were gone.

They arrived on a desolate planet, dusty landscape, strong winds and darker than normal.

"Wow, like…mondo creepy" said Krillin as he cast a look around the area.

"Kakarot, do you feel where they are?" asked Vegeta

"Yeah, off that way" replied Goku as he turned around and pointed behind everyone else.

"Well then, let's go" said Piccolo.

They all took off, looking around as they flew, taking in the planet; it wasn't very pleasant to look at, seemed a lot like the backdrop out of a horror movie.

Suddenly what seemed like an incredibly large palace came into view over the horizon, "That must be where they're hiding out" said Piccolo sourly, "Let's go take 'em down"

With an extra burst of speed the Z fighters sped off into the distance towards the palace.

After a few minutes of flying, they arrived in front of the palace; it loomed out over them like a lion over its prey.

"Well, how should we approach this?" asked Vegeta.

"Bust down the front door!" cried out Yamcha enthusiastically.

"Idiot! We are not…….." Vegeta replied angrily before he was cut across by Goku, "What a great idea Yamcha, show them that we're not afraid, arrive with a bang"

Everyone agreed, although Vegeta was wearing a sour look on his face.

As they all screamed out and unleashed their trademark attacks, the door was busted down with a rather large bang, then they all entered inside.
