Dragonball Z2 Episode 86: Increasing Power!
Narrator: last time on Dragonball Z2, Goku had returned to the battle with some reinforcements and he had them go in to help the other three against Merl while Goku found a good location to capture Merl to wait out the days until his dematerialization day…
Gohan: oh no he's getting burned!
Goten: Gohan we have to do something.
Gohan: right! Remember to do your part dad!
Goku: yes
Vegeta: arrrgg….
(Gohan, Vegeta, and Goten go into the fight)
Pan: grandpa, will you need my help to get that prision over him?
Trunks: yeah Goku, you may be strong but I don't think you doing this alone will help us much.
Goku: don't worry about me you two, if I need help I'll ask for it, but in the mean time you guys just go in and help the others, and please do your best not to be touched by him.
Trunks: right.
Pan: I understand grandpa.
Trunks: alright Pan let's go beak a leg!
Pan: right by your side Trunks!
(They both fly in)
Goku: (Pulls out one of the prision capsoules from his pocket) okay, I have three of them so I better put them to good use… and Bulma will kill me if I break just one of them… oh well I guess I'll just have to risk the beating. (Gets ready to push down the capsoule button to open it up and release the prision) I'll be ready when he's in good range…
Narrator: after that Pan and the others shot their biggest beams at Merl to see what could be done…
Pan: then maybe we should gang up on him with power!
Goten: yeah, that sounds like a good idea to me.
Gohan: yeah maybe with enough blasts he won't know what hit him.
Vegeta: psh… we already tried something like that earlier and it didn't work!
Gohan: then it's always worth a second try!
Trunks: yeah father, what do we have to lose?
Vegeta: try all of the power in our bodies.
Trunks: …
Gohan: well we can't sit here and let him get away, just attack him with whatever you've got! KA-MAE-
Goten: KA-MAE-HA-MAE-
Gohan and Goten: HA!!!!!!!! (They both shoot off)
Pan: ULTRA PAN, PAN BLAST! (Shoots out her pink beam)
Trunks: FINISH BUSTER!
Vegeta: arrrgg… this won't work! GALICK GUN!
Rya: DUFASTO!
(All the beam shoot out towards Merl)
Merl: whoa!? (Is hit with the beams)
Narrator: this lead to Goku trying to capture Merl for a first time but failing in the process…
Goku: (Appears in the sky some feet away from Merl) take this!!! (He presses the button on one of the Capsoules and it poufs open and a circuliar thing with energy bars appearing on it goes into Goku's hands, this is one of the prisions) you've been sentenced to life! (Throws the Prision towards Merl)
Merl: (Looks up and sees it as it is about to close on him) ahhhhhhhh! (He quickly jumps out of the way of the prision)
(The Prision keeps falling and smashes to pieces on the ground)
(There is a shock between everyone)
Goten: oh no!
Gohan: that's not good…
Vegeta: Bulma's going to be pissed.
(Goku)
Goku: damn! I missed! I didn't think about his speed… darn… I have to use the next one wisely or I could screw this whole thing up.
Merl: (Looks to Goku) you try to trap Merl!? Merl no like you!
Narrator: suddenly not long later Oub joined the fray with some metal incased legs to protect himself from Merl's toxic…
Merl: (Flies towards Oub)
(Oub and Merl get into a fight, Oub only uses his legs to block and defend from Merl as Merl attacks Oub)
Goku: ok, good job Oub just keep going with that…. I've almost got a good angle…
(The others watch the fight between Oub and Merl)
Merl: (Tries going for Oub's unprotected areas but Oub is able to dodge and move out of the way)
Narrator: after a large fixation with Pan Merl finally decided to attack her because of the aura she gave off, this left her pretty scarred in the face…
Merl: (Looks to Pan again) she is so pretty… Merl like, Merl like! (He then speeds in after her)
Pan: WHAT!?
Gohan: brace yourself Pan!
Merl: (Appears behind Pan) hello!
Pan: huh!?
Merl: (Grabs a hold of Pan by the mouth) nice and soft….
Pan: (Smoke starts coming from her mouth and face area) (She starts having muffled screams of pain)
Gohan: let go of her! (Punches Merl in the back) (His hand starts burning) ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! (He screams)
Merl: (Holds tightly onto Pan) burn, burn, burn!!
Pan: (Drops some tears from her eyes) (Smoke continues to come from her mouth area)
Oub: (Suddenly appears and kicks Merl away with his metal incased legs)
Merl: (Is knocked near Goku)
Narrator: and finally Goku threw in the last trap with great success, but that success would quickly turn to failure…
Merl: (Disassmbles himself into liquid molecules and flies out the sides of the prsion and reassmbles himself and then blasts the prision to pieces) quick and easy!
(Everyone looks aghasted at what they just saw)
Merl: Merl see you all later! Me need to learn how to live forever! (Disassmbles into moloecules and flies away)
Gohan: if he can escape…
Oub: no…
Goten: then there's no chance of us stopping him… he'll hurt so many people before he dies…
Goku: I don't know what to do…
(Everyone is discouraged)
Vegeta: we must find a way! (He shouts)
Narrator: what knew developments could arise in this crazy saga of power? Find out today on Dragonball Z2!
(Piccolo flying across the sky)
Piccolo: (Stops mid-air and feels a presense) damn… I'm too late he got away from them. I could have sworn they would have had him then. Well then, perhaps we should put my theroey to the test then. (Continues to fly on to meet up with the Z-fighters)
(Z-fighters)
(They are shown flying in the sky)
Gohan: (Is shown holding onto Pan in his hands as she is still pained and scarred from the attack Merl had on her) damn it… you'll be okay Pan!
Goku: Oub… could you fix Pan up when we get to Capsoule Corp.?
Oub: sure thing Goku, I'll heal anyone that needs it.
(They continue to fly on)
Yamcha: so guys, what exactly can we do here? If we can't capture him in something or kill him physically, what exactly are our options?
Rya: (Looks to Goku) will have to risk the lives of the Earthlings…
Goku: (Looks to Rya) I can't do that! Letting all of those people die by his hands! I couldn't live with the guilt of waitng out the days while he gets the last laugh! And from what I heard he wants to find a way to live forever.
Rya: that's impossible, no matter how smart he becomes he can't prolong his life.
Vegeta: how can you even be so sure?
Rya: it has not been written in any records as I recall.
Vegeta: psh… as you recall? Which could mean that you did see the records you just forgot about them!
Rya: arrrg… (Sighs) I'm sorry you guys… if I hand't been so confident in those prisions he probably wouldn't have gotten away…
Goku: don't beat yourself up Rya, we don't need that. As of right now we need to think of a good working strategy of a sort.
Yamcha: I agree!
Oub: and what exactly would that be?
Goku: not sure yet, but I'm working on it! (Chuckles)
Oub: (Smirks)
Vegeta: give me a break…
(Capsoule Corp.)
(Everyone is shown on the ground outside of Capsoule Corp. resting on the grass areas)
Goten: man that little fight sure took a lot of energy out of me…
Gohan: yeah… me too… (Lies Pan out on the ground softly) okay Pan, you'll be fixed up in a jiffy.
Oub: (Walks over to Pan and puts his hands in the air over Pan) (He begins the healing powers process)
Pan: (The bad burns on her face start to disapper and she begins to come around)
Gohan: oh good… I thought she might have been like that for a long time.
Oub: okay, done.
Pan: (Gets up and then stands up off the ground and dusts herself off) (Sighs) I thought my face was going to be ruined! Whew!
Gohan: oh thank goodness! (Hugs Pan)
Pan: (Hugs Gohan)
Gohan: were going to make sure he doesn't harm you or anyone else again.
Oub: (Looks to Goku and Vegeta and Rya) it looks like you three could use some healing too.
Goku: yeah… we've got some pretty bad burns from that little guy.
Oub: I'll fix you up! (He goes over to Goku and Heals him)
Goku: (His leg fixes and is no longer burned)
Oub: (Goes over to Vegeta)
Vegeta:…
Oub: (Heals Vegeta)
Vegeta: (Is healed up in all of the areas he was hit by, by Merl)
Oub: (Goes to Rya and heals him)
Rya: (His burns disapper while still in his monster form) (He then quickly changes back to his human like mode) thank you Oub…
Oub: don't mention it.
Goku: what about you Oub? You got burned pretty bad up there too.
Oub: I can't heal myself… I'm going to have to deal with it for a little while.
Goku: I have a feeling will be going to Kami's Lookout here very soon, I'm confident that Dende will fix you right up.
Oub: yeah…
(Suddenly the Capsoule Corp. entrance opens up and Bulma comes running out, Bra is with her and Goken walks out with one of his toys going towards the others)
Bulma: Vegeta! (Running)
Vegeta: hmm… here comes the welcoming commity.
(A little later)
(Everyone is shown talking to one another)
Bulma: all three fo them!!!??? But I thougt I remember telling you right up front not to break any of those Prisions!
Goku: well… it was a lot harder then I thought it was going to be… (Rubbing the back of his head)
Bulma: well do you know how much time went into making those prototypes!? Now I have to start all over again from scratch!
Trunks: (Puts his hands on his mothers Shoulders) mom… don't worry about it, I'll help you make some new ones, I mean you might havea team of scientists to help you, but I do as well and we can combine together to make even better prisions next time.
Bulma: yeah! But do you know how much Zenie went into making them?
Trunks: let's just say not a small amount….
Bulma: you bet your ass it wasn't small!
Goku: well Bulma the prisions failed as it is, and I'm sorry if they all broke, but you can't really blame me, Merl was just too slick for those containments.
Bulma: (Sighs) whatever… I forgive you Goku, as usual I can't stay mad at you, and I know you're doing this for the betterment of mankind, or some crap like that.
Goku: what's wrong?
Bulma: oh it just seems that you guys have to do this way too much… and I feel that I'm just getting older and older as the days go on…
Goku: I haven't noticed…
Bulma: very funny Goku, I know you know.
Goku: hmm…
Trunks: (Chuckles)
(The Others)
Pan: where is mom Goken?
Goken: she went over to Grandma's house.
Pan: then that's where we should head next dad, I don't think there's enough electricity contracted there to attract Merl there. We can go there and rethink our strategy.
Gohan: yeah that might be our only choice if we don't want to get burned… but after that we should probably head on down to the Lookout as well.
Pan: yeah that sounds good.
Goken: back to the Lookout again? It feels like I was just there…
Pan: you were, a year ago anyway.
Goken: oh yeah! I almost completely forogt about those 5 mean men!
Pan: Mind: how can you forget about something like them? Well he was only 3 then, and he didn't really fight with us so he doesn't really know what happened exactly, so I guess it makes sense for his young mind to forget, well I say that's a good quality to have.
Goten: (Taling to Bra) are you okay Bra?
Bra: yeah I'm fine, I was going to ask you the same thing… it seems you've got your work cut out for you again.
Goten: yeah but I'm confident to say will have the situatuon under control soon enough.
Bra: I hope so cause I really want you to come over for dinner.
Goten: what were we having tonight?
Bra: my mom's famous turtle stew.
Goten: again?
Bra: yeah.
Goten: Mind: wonderful…
Rya: are we ready to leave yet then?
Yamcha: shouldn't we get some of the others help first?
Trunks: yeah we need all the help we can get.
Voice: it won't makea diffrence…
Everyone: huh!? (They look up and see Piccolo as he begins landing to the ground)
Piccolo: what you need to defeat an enemy like Merl is something more then what you already have.
Gohan: do you know how to beat him Piccolo?
Piccolo: nothing is confirmed but I have a pretty good idea.
Goku: well what's your plan Piccolo?
Piccolo: after all the years we've all been fighting together I'd say that all of our fighting styles have been pretty much the same as one another.
Goku: yeah the Kame-Senin style of Martial Arts.
Piccolo: well I don't think that style is going to work.
Goku: what!? But we've all used that style against all of our opponents! Maybe except Vegeta and a select few, but what style could beat Merl?
Piccolo: perhaps a more mystical style… but I have yet to find out who could use such a style.
Pan: but how do you know it's because of the style of combat?
Piccolo: how many times do I have to say this? It's only a theory! But with good practice and work perhaps someone here can master a new style.
Rya: I don't know Piccolo, I doubt just learning a new style of Martial Arts is really going to make much of a diffrence against Merl.
Piccolo: well if you guys want to win then you'll take the risk!
Goku: let's discuss this more over at my house, okay?
Piccolo: fine.
Trunks: Bra, mom? Will you guys be coming along?
Bulma: no I have things I have to attend to.
Bra: yeah and I really don't want to be apart of this anymore then I have to. I think after the Ultimate 5 I've officailly retierd from Martial Arts fighting.
Gohan: well that's too bad we could use you for future battles.
Vegeta: since when were you retierd!? I was never told this! No one in this family retires from fighting no one does a thing-
(Vegeta continues to yell)
Gohan: (Puts his hand on his face) oh brother…
(Somewhere far off)
Merl: (Is shown flying while deliquified in the air looking for cities to gain electricity from) (He then reassmbles over a city) mmmhhh…. This place smells like it going to have a good meal ready for Merl!
(It is South City)
Merl: where do Merl begins firstly… hmm..? (Looking around at all the buildings and cars contracting off massive amounts of electricity) (Smirks)
(Kame House)
(The waves of the West Sea are showng near the dirt of the Island)
Turtle: (Is shown playing in the water)
Marron: (In her black jacket and short hair still sits on the porch with her hands on her cheeks) gosh… dad sure has been gone a long time… not to mention the dirty old man.
18: (Comes out o the house and stands next to Marron still standing) I think I know why…
Marron: you do?
18: I've sensed a distrubance in the Earth. You're father has really nothing to do with it, but I sense the others are in some form of trouble.
Marron: like what?
18: I don't know… but I think it might have something to do with the Toxic that had overtaken West City this morning.
Marron: but didn't that stuff just melt away into the ground? That's what some reporters are saying.
18: I don't believe what they are saying is accurate, their too dumb anyway to give correct information to the public.
Marron: harsh…
18: Marron I think you and I are going to have to go out there and help the others in anyway that we can.
Marron: me!? Why can't me and you just stay here and let them handle it!
18: because you're father might get into trouble! That's why!
Marron: oh…
18: now I recommend you go and get yourself ready because will be leaving within the hour.
Marron: but-
18: no buts!
Marron: (Sighs) okay… (Gets up and walks inside the house)
(Goku's house)
(Chi-Chi, Master Roshi, and Krillian are still watching the TV for anymore developments)
Roshi: the News is hardly even reporting on the toxic story anymore…
Krillian: why am I not surprised? I'm stating to sound just like my wife when I say that…
Chi-Chi: how can they not know about what's really going on?
Krillian: well… we don't really know what's going on either…
Chi-Chi: yeah but they are reporters! They are supposed to look into these kinds of things!
Roshi: I'm pretty sure it's just as puzzling to them as it is to us.
Krillian: yeah I agree.
(Suddenly the door to the house opens)
Goku: hi everyone!
Roshi, Chi-Chi and Krillian: Goku! (They shout)
(They all then run up to him and hug him)
Goku: hey you guys! What's wrong? I've only been gone a few hours.
Krillian: a few hours feels like a few centries when it comes down to you Goku! Give me a bigger hug! (He hugs Goku)
Goku: (Chuckles)
(Everyone else follows behind Goku and everyone greets one another)
(Some time passes and everyone is talking in the kitchen)
Roshi: and now this Merl chracter is off sucking electricity out of anything he can find?
Goku: yep… that's about it.
Krillian: how can you be so sure he'll kill people? I think people can live without power for a few days or more.
Goku: trust me Kirllian he has, in Satan City he sucked electricity right out of the Building Yamcha was in, the whole thing collapsed to the ground, no doubt he does not regard or care about human life.
Krillian: I see…
Yamcha: and he runied my date too!
Krillian: aren't you a bit old to still be dating Yamcha?
Yamcha: back-off Krillian!
Krillian: (Chuckles)
Roshi: what theory did Piccolo have that could help you win?
Goku: let him explain…
Piccolo: it's like this, most of us here use your Kame-Senin style of Marital Arts, I think we need to find another form of Martial arts or something else completely different to use against Merl.
Roshi: like what?
Piccolo: something that is mystical… something that can hit all of Merl's pressure points, something that makes all sensations including burning not affect your course of combat.
Gohan: the only thing that I can say is like that was my Mystic form against Majin Buu… but that failed miserably.
Piccolo: something more…
(Everyone in the room begins to think)
Oub: why not the Power room?
Piccolo: what!?
Oub: I said why not the Power room. I used that to unlock my hidden potential against the Ultimate 5. No doubt we can use it again to help us.
Piccolo: that's it! Why didn't I think of this before!? The Power room! It was so obvious! If someone in our group has some kind of power within them we can unlock it and perhaps the new style of mystic power will be unlocked!
Videl: (Is shown holding Goken in her arms behind the couch)
Pan: but who has a power like this?
Piccolo: hmm… I'm not sure.
Goku: yeah… the Power room is pretty useless if the person doesn't have a hidden power…
Vegeta: well then maybe we should all just take turns trying or something.
Oub: yeah but even if someone here did they'd have to do a whole bunch of training afterwards so as to not to loose control and it could take years before the power is fully unlocked.
Piccolo: not nessasary…
Oub: what?
Piccolo: the only reason we had you do all that training in between visits to the Power room is because the power you unlocked belonged to that of you evil ancestor Buu, and if you gathred all the power at once you could have gone evil on us with all of that negative energy. We trained you to balance it out and to get you used to it, so you wouldn't go evil on us.
Oub: I see… well in that case, someone here has to be able to do that.
Krillian: hmm… maybe it's me! (Joking)
Yamcha: are you kidding, it's no doubt that it's me!
(They both laugh)
Vegeta: quiet! This is a serious matter here!
(Yamcha and Krillian both shut their mouthes)
Vegeta: besides if your saying it could be any of us, it's obvious that it's probably a pure blooded Sayian. Kakorot and I are the only logical choices because we can unlock more Prater ablities with that room.
Goku: yeah, but would our style of Martial Arts combat change? I don't think so.
Vegeta: well then were running out of options here! Someone in this room will have to use that Power room and whomever it maybe will have to be the one who defeats that little freak.
Videl: but who could it possibly be?
Goku: I don't know… but will find out sooner or later.
Gohan: we have to.
(Everyone begins to ponder)
Pan: (Thinks)
Trunks: (Does as well)
(South City)
Merl: (Is shown with a traffic light in his hands sucking in all the elctriciy that it had)
(The light then goes out)
Merl: Merl like! Merl like! That be some tasty stuff!
(You then get a good look at the city, many building have collapsed to the ground and lights have gone out literally across the whole city)
Merl: Merl feels a little better now… but Merl want to have a little fun before Merl go and learn how to live forever. (He sees the West Sea not far from South City) (Smirks) (He then flies over to the West Sea)
(West Sea)
Merl: (You see him floating in the air with his red sneakers shining over the water) Merl no like clear and clean water! Merl make quick change to that! (He then swoops right down into the water)
(Under the water)
Merl: (Floats all the way down to the bottom of the water and sits on the ground)
(He chuckles with bubbles coming out of his mouth and ear areas)
Merl: okay! Here we go! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! (Suddenly toxic starts contracting off of Merl and spreading across the waters)
(The Sea is shown above water and begins to turn a polluted black color, much like Merl's look)
(Under the water)
Merl: (Sits at the bottom and continues to let pieces of himself pollute the big sea) (Chukles)
(Above the water)
Merl: (Comes flying out) they gonna remember Merl for a long time now! (Chuckles) (He then flies above the city) now Merl going to see how he gonna live forever, and that gonna start with the city Merl was born in! (Chuckles) (He then disperses himself and flies towards West City)
(Goku's house)
Oub: hey how come I can't just use my metal incased legs?
Vegeta: it wouldn't make a diffrence, it still burned you when you touched him, it just didn't hurt you when you hit him with his legs, and if he's able to burn whatever touches him then it doesn't hurt him.
Oub: I guess that makes sense, there was some smoke coming off my metal incasings when I hit him.
Goku: and also Oub he got you pretty bad in the arm and stomach area when you grabbed onto him so I don't think you're the one we need.
Oub: yeah… I assumed as much.
Trunks: well whatever we need will be found out at the Lookout, that's the only logical place we can figure anything out about who has this power Piccolo speaks of.
Piccolo: that presents more problems… who knows if any of us even have this power.
Rya: I was wondering when you were going to say that Piccolo, for all we know none of us have that power.
Pan: then what will we do if none of us does have the power?
Rya: who knows…
Goku: I know… we'd be forced to live out the days and let people die by Merl's hands…
Rya: yes Goku, it is becoming closer and closer to us having to resort to that.
Goku: but I can't let thousands of people die because we had to wait until the killer dies himself! That's just ilogical!
Piccolo: well it would be our only choice Goku. And plus we will undo it with the Dragonballs.
Goku: that's what I was afraid of… more Dragon ball usage can equal to more Negative energy.
Goten: I doubt that will happen for at least another 100 years.
Goku: it all depends I guess… let's just see if we can find that hidden power and beat Merl without losing people, it's out only hope.
(Everyone continues to discuss the matter)
(West City)
Merl: (Is shown flying over the city) hmm… (Looks towards Capsoule Corp.) Merl smell good electricty in that place! Oooooooooh! Merl gonna have a look inside! (Chuckles) (Flies down to Capsoule Corp.)
Narrator: oh no! Merl has found Capsoule Corporation, what does he intend to do inside besides hunting elctrical appliances? And will Goku and the others find out who has the power deep within them that could change their fighting style against Merl? Stay tuned for scenes for the next exciting episode of Dragonball Z2!
Scenes: next time on Draonball Z2 Merl is inside Capsoule Corp. and he demands Bulma make him live forever, but what does he mean by this? And how can Bulma accomplish this without getting harmed? And wait… look at this! Merl has undergone some kind of transformation and he attacks the Z-fighters at Goku's house! You don't wan to miss the next episode of Z2!
