Hi everyon. Finally got the next chapter done. So enjoy.
Goku layed on his bed and stared at the ceiling. The Super Saiyan couldn't stop thinking about what Turles had said. Was he no better than the Saiyans? The race who caused so much destruction. The painful memories started to fill his mind. His anger at Krillin's deaths. The rage at seeing Vegeta feeling no remorse at his friends murders. Then out of the blue, a happy memory popped up from nowhere.
.
Goku looked around to see a few familiar faces. Including Bulma, Yamcha and Roshi. Next to him was Chi Chi, in a beautiful white dress. Then it dawned on him that this was his wedding night. The same day that he defeated Piccolo. Suddenly a few loud tapping noises could be heard. The warrior looked around to see Krillin tapping his glass, clearly intoxicated.
"I have to say that it is a privilege to be the best man! Even though Goku only asked me, because I told him he had to have one." Krillin joked, causing everyone to laugh. "Seriously though it's an honour... having only two competitors, who have both tried to kill him." Another laugh blasted its way through the hall. Even Tien and Yamcha laughed at their own expense. "When I think of Goku, one thing comes to mind. How fast your willing to go into battle. When you wanted to save a man's life. You raided the entire red ribbon army just to bring him back. When I was dead you stopped at nothing to get revenge. I know you always say that you're only interested in getting stronger, but there's more to it than that. In my opinion Goku is the most selfless person I have ever met. So let us all raise a toast." Everyone suddenly raise their glasses in unison. To the fastest man in the world... sorry Chi Chi. Seriously though the only person faster than Goku is launch to anger."
"What was that!" The blonde haired criminal yelled, surprising Krillin.
"Wait I thought you were all blue haired. Listen I'm sorry." Launch though wasn't having any of it.
"Wrong move you little bowling ball!" She took out her gun and started shooting at the bald monk. Who instantly fell to the floor in fear. Everyone with the exception of Chi Chi laughed at Launch's attack.
"Do things usually blow up around you?" The bride wanted to know.
"They sure do Chi Chi. They sure do." Goku replied.
.
The very next day Goku once again entered Mongul's arena. This time however, he entered quite glum. As Goku entered, the entire stadium could sense that his mood was not very good. Even Mongul could see that something was amiss with the Super Saiyan. Though he kept his head up, and got into a fighting pose. Goku kept his eyes straight towards his opponent. The two kept breathing slowly as the bell rang.
"Wait!" A voice shouted out. Goku looked up to see Superman flying above. The man of steel landed, staring straight at Mongul.
"Nice of you to join us Kryptonian. Still if you needn't have bothered stopping the fight." The emperor quipped.
"Emperor Mongul, by the laws of Warworld. I challenge you in combat."
"You should know that I do not have to accept this challenge."
"Then how about a little wager?" This peak the emperor of Warworld's interest.
"Do tell."
"If you win, I'll reveal the rebel's location. However if I am victorious, you will relinquish your title of emperor!" The whole crowd became silent. Even Goku was shocked by his friends request. Mongul chuckled as he stood up.
"My lord, you cannot be seriously considering this? These terrorists are nothing. Certainly not worth risking your entire kingdom. Don't do this" One of the generals pleaded with his emperor.
"Soon we will be attaching Cooler's entire army. For my plan to succeed we need a united Warworld. Do not worry about me, I always have a back up plan." Mongul told his general, before turning back to Superman. "Very well Kryptonian, you have a deal. After all, it wouldn't be Warworld if I didn't gave the people a good fight." Mongul wooed his kingdom by jumping onto the battlefield. The crowd roared as both combatants took to their starting positions. Goku walked over to a spectator seat, unsure of what his friend had in mind.
Every second that passed felt like an eternity for Clark. He knew that even if Mongul was stopped, his plan still relied on gaining the crowds support. Most would call him crazy, but the man of steel knew he could pull it off. All of a sudden the sound signalling their fight's start, sounded. The leader of Warworld charged at his foe, launching a flurry of attacks. However Superman easily managed to dodge them all. Once again Mongul vigorously threw his fist right towards Superman. However the man of steel comfortably jumped over him.
"If it's me your trying to hit... Well, you might want to try a little harder than that." The man of tomorrow taunted his opponent. Mongul grunted as he slammed his fist into the arena's ground. Huge piles of rock flew up, slamming into Clark. The Kryptonian looked up to see Mongul hurtling towards him. Quickly thinking, he used his super breath to propel himself away. Sweat dropped down Superman's face. He knew that this was going to be a long battle.
"Start fighting!" The emperor yelled, causing Clark to smile. His plan was working!
"Alright." Suddenly the Kryptonian threw his fist into Mongul's chest. The entire crowd fell silent as they saw their emperor in deep pain. Mongul tried to slam Clark, but the man of steel caught his attack. The emperor tried to free his hands, but was unable to. The shock came when Clark winked at his opponent, and then threw him into a wall. "I think you need to build a better wall!" These jokes were now starting to irritate Mongul. "In bad taste?" The emperor though just stood up and signaled to his general. All of a sudden the force field, blacked out their battlefield. In its place was a giant red glow.
"A red son generator. Been keeping this in case the Eradicator ever turned on me. Never thought I would use it on an actual Kryptonian. In either case, you won't be healing anytime soon." The crowd now fell silent. Only the noise of a few murmurs could be heard.
"Thought you wanted to put on a show for your people?"
"Now I just want to win!" Mongul stamped on the ground, pulling up a giant boulder. The emperor threw it towards Clark, who caught it. However this meant he was unable to see the fist flying towards his face. Superman was sent flying backwards, smashing into the arena's side. The pain was doubled as Mongul kneed him in his stomach. The pain in his body was unbearable. Clark felt the ground shake as he crashed down into it. However there was no rest for him as Mongul stamped on his back. The crowd were now starting to boo their emperor. They all expected a fair fight, not the cheating Mongul had displayed. The last son of Krypton smirked when he heard them jeer.
"Your kingdom seems to have turned against you." Mongul retaliated by grabbing Clark by his collar.
"After I've defeated Cooler, no one will ever defy me again. Though you will not live to see that day." Mongul lined up his fist, ready to end this battle. However just as he launched his attack, a hand blocked his punch. Mongul was left shocked as he saw Goku standing in front of him. Soon he was sent flying backwards. "Why? I offered you the chance to fight forever. Isn't that everything you've ever wanted?"
"What good is that life if the people you care about are gone?" The Saiyan replied, angering the emperor. Superman soon stood up and stopped Goku from taking another step.
"Wait! Don't interfere... I have to do this." Clark said, panting due to the beating he took. Goku turned to his friend, perplexed.
"You said your unable to gain any powers from a red sun. So why put your body through this?" The man of steel looked scanned around.
"I have to prove it to them. I have to prove that Mongul's way is wrong. That there is a better tomorrow. That's why I can't let you fight for me." Clark stood tall as he explained himself. Goku nodded, and soon used instant transmission to get away. Mongul laughed when he noticed Goku's absence.
"If your plan was to defeat me, then you've just made a critical error, Kryptonian." The emperor of Warworld taunted. Superman though turned to his opponent and started to walk towards him.
"At some point, I thought these powers were a curse. With every breath a tornado. I spent my entire life holding back, so someone wouldn't be hurt, or worse." The man of steel stated. His enemy charged, but was sent flying backwards by a punch. "But you can certainly take a beating, can't you? I think it's time I let my hair down. And show you just how powerful I really am." The man of steel lunged in. Mongul could only cry out in pain as he was sent soaring upwards. Soon enough he hit the forcefields top, sending him back down. This was then made worse by Superman smashing him into the wall before he landed. Mongul limped forward, starting to feel very dizzy. He took several steps forward, ready to launch another attack. However before Warworld's leader could make a counter attack, he fell unconscious due to his injuries. The whole crowd were silent, seeing their emperor fall in battle was a new experience. Yet amongst all the silence, a single clap started to sound. Then another pair of hands joined in. One after another, each set of hands were applauding the fight. Until the entire audience started to clap the last son of krypton. Superman smiled as he soon fell to his knees. But was caught by Goku before he hit the ground.
"You won Superman. You won." The Saiyan congratulated. Clark looked around and heard the whole stadium cheer his name. Then he looked to the sky. If Jonathan Kent was looking down, he would surely have been proud.
