Generation Shadow Attacks
"There you are." Came the voice of the tall caped man, who stood before all the others. As he walked down the ramp, the others followed behind. One surpassed the leader's height, standing at least eight feet tall wit ha beastly appearance. There was a pink skinned woman with a black ponytail and red eyes. Another was a short man, with ivory skin and an X planted on his forehead. Another was a black specter with glowing blue eyes. And the final one to walk down the ramp was a blood red haired man with ruby eyes. All were dressed in black.
"Who are you?" Goku questioned. The caped man made it to the ground, the others spreading out.
"Generation Shadow. That is the leader, Asaroth. The others are Beast, Mirage, Mengy, Kalal, and Shade." Syphon revealed. Asaroth began to laugh and folded his arms.
"Surprised you remember us after running for all these years." He commented.
"It doesn't matter if he remembers you or not! The six of you will all die by the hands of Prince Vegeta." Vegeta shouted. The members of Generation Shadow just laughed.
"I hate the cocky ones." Mirage said, frowning as she spoke.
"Why don't you just move out the way so we can kill that bastard behind you and rid of this planet." Asaroth proclaimed.
"You're not doing anything!" Krillin argued and ran for Asaroth.
"Krillin no!" Goku called out, but it was too late. Asaroth had no remorse blasting Krillin away with a single sphere of red ki that sent the warrior flying. Generation Shadow wasted no time in running in to attack the others. Beast went for Goku, Kalal went for Piccolo, Shade went for Gohan, Mirage went for Vegeta, and Mengy went for Tien. Asaroth, however, stood still, his arms crossed, staring at Syphon with shame.
"You should have never changed your ways Syphon. Going against Generation Shadow was a mistake."
"I don't kill for fun anymore Asaroth. I guess I've lost the thrill." Syphon replied.
"Heh, we'll see about that!" With that said, Asaroth rushed for Syphon
Beast landed a thundering hook on Goku's check, nearly shattering his jaw completely. Goku rolled with the attack and went in to punch the hulk in the gut. But his claw slashed across the Saiyan's chest, causing skin, blood and orange cloth to rip away. He then followed through with a wide back hand that sent Goku twirling away. The speed of the attack mixed with the power of the metallic glove added to the pain. Goku rolled back and came to his feet, grabbing at the four slashes across his chest.
"Wow. You are a strong one." He commented. Beast just grinned.
"I already know." He replied and charged at Goku once again. He again swiped for Goku, but the Saiyan ducked under the attack and landed a booming uppercut. But Beast took in the attack and grabbed Goku by both of his arms, digging his claws into the Saiyan's flesh. Goku yelled out in pain as he felt the metallic fingers of Beast dig deeper into his arms. Beast laughed, laughing harder to sound out Goku's yells.
"Shut up weakling!" He spat before driving his knee into Goku's stomach and punching him away.
Vegeta swung his leg out, attempting to kick Mirage in the neck, but the pink skinned assassin blocked the attack wit ha single arm. Mirage brought up a knee, but Vegeta was quick enough to block it. However, he was not quick enough to see Mirage lift her hand up and a release a magenta ki blast on his chest. The blast sent Vegeta rolling back, but the agile Saiyan was able to come to his feet, just in time to block the first of Mirage's intense attacks. He blocked another, just to be caught with a hard left jab to his nose. Mirage then jumped up and flicked out her leg and kicked Vegeta in the face. The Saiyan prince flipped backward, landing on his feet several feet from Mirage.
"What's wrong? I thought I was going to die by your hands?" Mirage mocked, standing with her arms folded and a bold look on her face. Vegeta just grinned.
"Alright then. I'll show you my real power!" The prince said, just before throwing his arms down and yelling. In just a matter of seconds, his entire appearance changed. His black hair suddenly became gold and his black eyes became green. He was now surrounded by a gold aura that picked up a mean wind. Mirage, however, just scuffed and rolled her eyes.
"Nice light show." She spat. Vegeta clenched his jaw in fury.
"This is more than a light show! This is the definition of power!" He barked backed and began to throw his arms back and forth, releasing blast after blast. Each ki blast hit its target, creating a massive cloud of smoke which engulfed the female assassin. After about a minute, Vegeta stopped his assault, grinning at the cloud it had left behind. But when the cloud cleared, the prince's heart nearly dropped. Mirage stood with her arms folded and unscathed.
"Finally done eh? It's about time." She said.
"Who-who are you?" was all that could creep out of Vegeta's mouth. For the first time, Mirage grinned.
"I believe it is time for a formal introduction. Allow me to introduce me, myself, and I." She said sharply. With the clench of her fists, her image began to blur and on each side, another body budded out. It was an exact replication of herself. The bodies budded off one another until they formed a ring around Vegeta and all had the same look of tyranny on their faces. For the first time, the arrogant Saiyan prince was worried. This evil woman before him, now surrounded him and there was no way out.
The Namek and the assassin were in an intense battle in the sky. Piccolo struggled to keep up with the swiftly moving assassin. All Kalal did was issue out kicks, keeping his arms folded. He was toying with the Namek, as if it were some kind of joke. Piccolo was kicked away but managed to keep himself in the air. He arched his arm back, palm up and generated some ki.
"Destructive Wave!" he yelled, sending the cylinder blast of ki toward Kalal. But Kalal bent backward, dodging the deadly blast and moved in on Piccolo. The Namek had no time to react for Kalal executed a thunderous uppercut and then floated up to release a blast of his own upon Piccolo. The blast knocked Piccolo to the ground, burning a hole through his stomach. He yelled out in pain but was silenced when Kalal plunged his boots into the Namek's face. He then reached down, picking the Namek up by his neck, grinning at the site of the weakened warrior.
"Pathetic." Kalal said and launched Piccolo into a crowd of trees.
Gohan threw blast after blast, desperately trying to catch the specter. But the adversary kept disappearing in the few dark spots and shadows that existed around. The battle of the two ended up in the woods, where there were plenty of shadows at the specter's expense. Gohan stood still and quiet, silently searching for Shade. It was bad enough that this particular individual was able to move with darkness, but he was also a mute individual himself, never making a sound. Gohan felt Shade's ki behind him and didn't even turn around to attack, for the specter had formed unloaded a rattling blast into his back. Gohan crashed through several trees before he hit the ground and skidded across. When the son of Goku lifted his head up, Shade was already standing in front of him and kneed him in the face. But the young Saiyan planted his feet down and raised his arms over his head, making a diamond with his hands.
"Masenko!" Gohan yelled and a ki blast emitted from the formation of his hands. Gohan had believed he had the assassin trapped, for the light of his blast covered most of the area. But to his surprise, the silent assassin parted away from his own body; bits and pieces of it going to whatever shadows were available.
"No!" Gohan yelled. A bead of sweat trickled down the side of his face once he heard the misty sound of Shade rematerializing behind him.
Tien was slumped over and clutching his stomach. He coughed up a few spits of blood and his arms were exhausted. The little Mengy was a lot more dangerous than he looked. He packed a punch for a little guy and was quicker than the blink of an eye. He saw the short form of Mengy walking, smiling and laughing.
"Ready or not here I come!" Mengy yelled out and cut across the space that separated him and Tien. Too quick he was, landing a hard right jab, then a left hook, another right hook, a spinning left back fist, another right hook, then a right back hand, another left hook and then topped it off with a left kick across the face of Tien, all in one combo. The tri-eyed human could do nothing but allow himself to fly with the attack. His head bounced off the ground but was pushed back by Mengy stomping on it. He then kicked Tien up to his feet, making the human look directly at him. The X in the middle of Mengy's forehead began to glow a bright green and out of it came a blast that smacked Tien directly in the face. The human was launched back, flipping uncontrollably and crashing into the ground.
Syphon has his arms crossed in front of him, blocking each bone shattering punch that came from Asaroth. There wasn't much he could do to keep his former leader off of him, because of the simple fact that Asaroth was stronger than him and he was already weak from Asaroth's previous attacks. All Syphon had to do now was hold him off until he found a time to escape.
"Come on Syphon! Show me your strength! I know damn well you are not this cowardice in a fight!" Asaroth commented as he continued his assault. This particular comment angered the former assassin and Syphon knocked away one of Asaroth's punches and delivered a kick to the temple of the leader. The kick rocked his head a bit, but this just made Asaroth grin, for it opened Syphon up. He landed an uppercut and then clubbed Syphon to the ground. Asaroth then yanked Syphon by the neck and threw him across the plain. Syphon landed next to Krillin who was just about to get up and Vegeta as well came falling next to him. Soon, Tien, Gohan, and Piccolo all were thrown into the pile. Generation Shadow formed in front of them, the men grinning and Mirage (who was now a single individual) simply frowning.
"This was rather pleasant. I guess we will rid of all seven of you." Asaroth mentioned.
"I'll take care of them." Mirage mentioned and started to run for the group herself. Shade made no comment and followed after her. The warriors were too weak to do anything. But something happened that would change the fate of the battle. Before Mirage could get anywhere, a blast erupted in front of her, sending her back to the group huddled behind and a kick slammed across Shade's face.
"What the hell?" Kalal shouted. When the cloud from the random blast cleared, two individuals stood before them. One was a male, the other a female. The male had green eyes and gold hair with a glowing aura, much like Goku and Vegeta had looked before they were beaten. The woman had blonde hair and blue eyes. The male was dressed in black pants and sported a sleeveless blue denim jacket. The woman had one a simple long sleeved black shirt with denim jeans.
"Leave. Now!" the male said to the evil assassins. Asaroth just grinned.
"I guess it would be good for you two rest. With these new individuals, we will have a great time slaughtering all of you. Ta-ta for now. We will be back later." Asaroth mentioned. Shade stepped in front of the group, raising his hands, causing a blackness to overcome Generation Shadow and the ship they came with.
"Are you okay?" the woman asked, turning around and walking over to Krillin.
"Eighteen! Where did you come from?" Krillin asked.
"I came looking for my husband." She simply replied. The comment made Krillin blush but he did come to his feet.
"I'm alright. Where is Marron?" he questioned.
"Our daughter went with Bulma, Trunks, and Goten. She'll be fine." Eighteen answered. The male's hair suddenly changed. It was no longer spiky, now straight and about to his shoulders in length and was now a purplish-grayish color. He turned around, now having blue eyes.
"S-son?" Vegeta asked.
"Yes. It is me father." He answered.
"Trunks? How?" Gohan asked. It was a question that all of them wanted to know. For this was not the kid that Vegeta was currently raising. This was his adult son, who was not of the current time.
