Dragonball Z2 Episode 95: Hope and Disappointment.
Narrator: previously on a battle changing episode of Dragonball Z2, Merl turned the tables against Pan and gave her a beating of a life time that not even Rya # 1 had accomplished in going as far as Merl did…
Merl: okay… (Disappears)
Pan: huh!? What!?
Merl: (Reappears in front of Pan and lays a hard punch right in the middle of her face hitting her nose)
(The scene moves in slow motion as Pan is shown getting thrown back)
Pan: (Flies back and skids across the ground and then comes to a stop while lying on the ground)
(Skip)
Merl: (Slams his foot down on Pan's stomach)
Pan: (Spits up saliva and blood and let's go of her nose, she also has a jolt up when she is stomped on) ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Merl: (Stomps on her again)
Pan: (Screaming in pain) ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
(Skip)
Pan: huh?
Merl: (Reassembles behind her locks both of Pan's cheeks in with his hands put into fists, he begins to do pretty much the same move that Janemba used on Pikkon in Fusion Reborn) how does it feel pretty one?
Pan: ahhhh…. (Hardly able to speak but shrieks in pain)
Merl: I could crush your skull in right now if I wanted to.
Pan: let… le…t me go!
Merl: don't worry I will… (Starts push down a little more on her face)
Pan: (Screams out in more pain)
Merl: (Pushes harder)
Narrator: and the torture continued even more!
Pan: (Spits out saliva) (She falls back)
Merl: (Laughs) (He then follows her and lays another kick to her stomach)
Pan: ahhhhhhh! (She screams)
Merl: (Grabs her by the shirt neck)
Pan: (Opens he eyes and looks into Merl's red eyes)
Merl: (Smiling)
Pan: (Breathing)
Merl: (Hits his head into her head)
Pan: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Merl: (Hits her head with his head again)
Pan: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
(Merl continues to do it over and over again)
Narrator: and then it was revealed through Pan's tough exterior that she really was physically hurt by Merl and he told her to show her pain out loud, it was a horrible sight…
Merl: show me…
Pan: … (Falls to her knees) (Her eyes start to water)
Merl: (Smirks)
Pan: (She then screams out loud) (Tears fall from her eyes) ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Merl: (Chuckles)
Pan: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! (The pain is unbearable for her)
Merl: (Chuckles even more and louder)
Pan: OH DAMN IT ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! (Holding onto all her places of pain) ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
(Skip)
Merl: see; don't be afraid to show the pain you truly feel. Because eventually very soon, all the pain will go away. (Snaps his fingers) just like that. (He then starts to chuckle again)
Narrator: has Pan met her match in this battle? Or will she find a way to beat Merl and accomplish the goal of being savior of the planet? Find out today on Dragonball Z2!
Pan: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! (She screams still from all the pain she has felt up to this point)
Merl: (Stands there watching)
Pan: oowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! DAMN IT! DAMN IT!
Merl: (Watches and crosses his arms)
(The Others)
Gohan: if I hear her scream one more time I'm going to snap!
Goku: I told you to keep calm Gohan!
Gohan: I'm trying my best dad! It's not every day you see your daughter or your son getting the life beaten out of them!
Goku: don't talk sarcastically Gohan, now's not the time for that, just calm down and think about how Pan will find a way to win this. I know she will!
Trunks: Mind: Pan… I can't bear the sight of you in this much pain… I would love to help you, but there's something holding Gohan and I back… damn it… I wish I could help you…. I wish I could… (He scrunches his hand)
Vegeta: Trunks…
Trunks: yeah?
Vegeta: just level yourself Trunks; try not to think about the pain she is feeling. Much like Kakorot told Gohan, you must think here and believe she will win because in the end considering the fact she's related to Kakorot she will find a way to win.
Trunks: it's just so difficult…
Vegeta: I know Trunks, I know…
(Merl and Pan)
Pan: (Drops a few tears from her eyes and she sits on the ground looking down toward the dirt with her hands grabbing onto the ground) (She drops more tears)
Merl: are you feeling better yet now that you have all that out of your system?
Pan: …
Merl: you see it's a very good method when you feel pain, you see if you repress the pain it tends to have negative repercussions on your body, but if you let it all loose then your body registers that it's time to get better. I just allowed you a chance to heal up if only a little. And besides you'll need that because you are about to enter an entirely new level of pain in less then a minute.
Pan: (Looks up to Merl) why? Why must you toy around with me…? I don't you just kill me and get it over with?
Merl: like I said before: "I need a punching bag." And if I killed you now there would be no sport and I would get no practice because I'd get no satisfaction from kicking your dead body around. So it's a lot better when they are alive and making all kinds of noises.
Pan: you're fucking ass hole…
Merl: why thank you…
Pan: do whatever you want to me… but be warned I will stop you.
Merl: so are you going to stop this? (Disappears and reappears in front of Pan and bangs her on the side of her face with both of his fists together)
Pan: (Skids across the ground making a small traveling mark in the ground) (She is shown face down in the dirt)
Merl: you're so easily thrown around… wow! (Starts walking over to her location)
Pan: (Slowly tries to get back up)
Merl: (Stands above her)
Pan: (Continues to try and stand back up)
Merl: hmm… (Puts his foot down on her head)
Pan: (She screams out loud) (Her head and her body is pushed back down to the ground)
Merl: let's see if my foot is any different then my hands, let's see if it can crush your skull in instead. (He starts to push down on Pan's head with his big foot)
Pan: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! PLEASE!!! STOP IT!!!
Merl: (Pushes more)
(The Others)
Goken: I can't watch this mommy!
Videl: this isn't really happening is it!? This can't be happening!
Chi-Chi: (Almost faints but is able to hold herself up) I won't let myself faint again… I have to see this no matter how bad it may get!
Ox King: it would be okay to faint Chi-Chi because all were going to see is pure straight torture, I don't think Pan will ever have a comeback…
Roshi: I agree…
Marron: (Is covering her eyes)
Bra: this is so unbearable… how can this be happening to her? Please stop it!
(Everyone is shown as Pan continues to scream in the background)
Gohan: Mind: she's just a kid… I know she's a woman now, but I can't seem to ever let her go… and I can't just sit here and not protect her… but I know I have to… but does she really truly want this? (Looking towards her) she looks scared to death… I have reason to believe that dad is too overconfident of her abilities or is in denial… same with Vegeta. This has to stop! It just has to!
Rya: like Goku said Gohan… calm down.
Gohan: huh?
Rya: you people don't seem to grasp the concept that I can read your mind…
Gohan: (Sighs) yeah I know…
(Merl and Pan)
Merl: (Pushes on Pan's head one more time)
Pan: owwwwww!
Merl: (Kicks Pan to lie on her back) (He then moves his hand down and grabs onto the top of her head) (He then lifts her up by the top of her head and holds her in his hand and looks at her in the eyes) hello there…
Pan: (Is breathing hard and gasping)
Merl: awww, does your head hurt? Do you need an aspirin?
Pan: (Looks onto his face) please… stop this…
Merl: sorry but I'm not feeling too charitable at the moment, but let me tell you what I do feel like doing: how's about a little game of catch.
Pan: huh?
Merl: (Suddenly throws her by the top of her head across the battle field)
Pan: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! (Slams into a cliff causing it to collapse)
Merl: wow… I've got one good arm. (Flexes his arms around)
(Rubble)
Pan: (Moves one of the rocks out of her way) (She coughs up a little blood into her hand) (She then looks at the blood on her yellow glove) I wasn't supposed to lose any blood during this battle…. I wasn't…
Merl: (Appears in front of her and the rubble) bleeding internally I see… you know as long as you don't fall asleep you should be fine… of course… it won't matter too much because you're going to die no matter what happens.
Pan: (Breathes hard)
Merl: so what do you want me to do to you next?
Pan: …
Merl: I'll decide for you… (Put his hand into a fist and slams really hard onto Pan's stomach)
Pan: (Throws up more blood and shrieks aloud)
Merl: that had to hurt…
Pan: (Has the wind knocked out of her) (Is hardly able to breathe) (She jiggles around trying to catch her breathe)
Merl: I love it when you struggle…
(The Others)
Goku: why doesn't she do something? There's no time to be sitting there taking all of this in! What's her deal?
Vegeta: she's tough I'll give her that…
Gohan: it's obvious! She's taking it all in because she doesn't know what to do! Have you ever thought of that!?
Goku: …
Piccolo: Gohan, don't say that… I remember one time when you fought Cell I was in the same vote as you are right now. I kept telling Goku to help you but he just wouldn't do it because he knew you'd unlock your hidden powers. I believe the same will happen for Pan, she will find a way to win, I guarantee you. Just like you did when you blew Cell into the wind.
Gohan: I just hope to the Kai's she finds the strength she needs soon enough…
Goku: we all do Gohan…
(Merl and Pan)
Pan: (Regains her breathe)
Merl: all better? Good, now let's proceed with the business at hand.
Pan: no! (She is able to jump to her feet and she runs over to the opposite side of Merl on the battle field and the stops to catch her breathe) (That's how weak she is, she has to rest every time she runs) (She then turns around and looks towards Merl)
Merl: hmm… (He then begins walking towards her)
Pan: (Starts shooting multiple blasts at Merl while he walks towards her)
Merl: (Walks)
Pan: (Continues to blast her)
(Everyone blast she throws at Merl has no affect on him)
Merl: (Continues to walk through all of the blasts with is giant body making only smoke screens in his wake)
Pan: (Shoots a few more blasts at Merl)
Merl: (Comes out of one of the smoke patches and then lays a good punch on Pan's face knocking her to the ground again face down) (He then puts his foot on the top of her back) let me ask you something… what exactly was the purpose of that ploy you just tried to play on me? I mean pardon me for asking but it just seemed deeply stupid and primitive for you to do something such as that.
Pan: …
Merl: not going to answer my question? Fine, I'll just beat the answer out of you a little more, and even if you don't tell me I won't mind I'll still beat you up anyway. (Laughs) (He then kicks her to her feet) Now let's see how you fair against this next strike.
Pan: (Sighs)
Merl: (Does a jump kick in the air and hits Pan into her stomach yet again)
Pan: (Flies back into another wall of a cliff and comes out the other end)
(After the cliff collapses something is revealed behind it)
Pan: (Breathing hard)
Merl: (Laughs) (He then notices what was behind it) huh!? Wait, no!
Pan: (Gets back up and sees it) hmm…
(It is the Blutz Waves machine shown sitting there in all of its glory)
Pan: (She looks towards it and then looks back towards Merl) so that's where you've been hiding it? (With weakness to her voice)
Merl: (Starts sweating and getting flustered)
Pan: if you make one more step towards me I'll blow it into an oblivion.
Merl: you wouldn't do that! That's one of the blue haired woman's best inventions! She told me herself when she charged me for the first time with the Blutz Waves!
Pan: oh cut the crap! I know she didn't say that! And even if she did you think I care if it's her most prized invention? This thing has done nothing but bring pain it's entire existence in this world. It helped power up an enemy to where he was nearly unstoppable once. And the same thing is happening again with you, at least if I destroy it now you won't be able to recharge yourself.
Merl: please don't touch it! I beg you!
Pan: now you're begging!? I was begging and pleading before when you beat the hell out of me and you didn't listen, what makes you think I'll listen yours?
Merl: because…
Pan: and that just about sums up everything I guess… I'm destroying it right here, right now!
(The Others)
Goku: I told you she'd find something.
Gohan: then maybe there still is some hope left…
Trunks: I sure hope so.
Rya: Mind: there's something fishy about this… I can't quite place it…
(Merl and Pan)
Merl: I won't let you destroy that precious device! (Raises his hand into the air)
(The machine suddenly takes flight into the air)
Pan: oh no you don't! I won't let it get away! (She jumps into the air and starts flying after the machine)
Merl: no! (He then starts chasing after her in the air)
(In the sky)
Pan: (Is shown chasing after the machine)
Merl: (Is shown not too far away from her)
Pan: Mind: I've got him right on my ass and I can't get a clean shot on that machine… he really beat me down… my vision has gone blurry a little bit… and I barely have any Ki to spare for another blast, but I have to make this worth it, even if I do die in the end at least he won't be able to reenergize himself with these waves. (Continues to chase after the machine)
Merl: please! You don't know what you are doing!
Pan: (While chasing the machine) I'm stopping you! That's what I'm doing! (Points her hand out to try and get a good shot)
(Suddenly the Machine starts zigzagging)
Pan: oh damn it!
Merl: do you really think I'm going to let you destroy it that easily! Just try and keep up with it!
(The Others)
Oub: she needs a better shot.
Goten: I doubt Merl's going to let her find one…
Marron: yeah I know, he seems really desperate.
Piccolo: she'll figure something out, I have faith.
Goku: me too… I've had faith in her ever since our hunt for the Black Star Dragonballs.
Vegeta: (Smirks)
Krillian: wow… I hope Pan can keep up with that thing; I'd be out of my mind if I was getting chased by a guy as big as Merl and I was trying to chase after something else… man…
18: come on Pan! You can find a good shot, I know you can!
(In the sky)
Pan: (Speeds up a little bit trying to get a good shot)
(The machine continues to move around at an alarming pace)
Pan: come on! Come on!
Merl: you won't touch it! (Starts shooting beams at Pan)
Pan: (Is able to move to the side of the beams target space and narrowly dodges it)
(The chase continues)
(The Others)
Rya: hmm…
Trunks: what is it Rya?
Rya: I don't know, there's something really funny going on here…
Trunks: like what?
Rya: that's the problem, I have no idea.
Gohan: hmm…
(In the sky)
Pan: here we go! I finally found the shot I was looking for!
(The machine goes into her range)
Merl: Nooooooooooooo!!!
Pan: (Shoots a blast towards it and hits it, but it isn't destroyed, but it falls to the ground) damn! I guess that's okay, this is a lot better for me now, it'll be so much easier to destroy that thing! (She lands on the ground next to the machine)
Merl: (Lands behind her) no! You mustn't do this! No!
Pan: oh save it!
Merl: I can give you some of the Blutz Waves to make you feel better! I can make you stronger! Come on! What do you say!?
Pan: refusal is always my highest virtue… (Blasts at the machine)
(The beam goes towards the machine)
(The Other)
Gohan: yes! Come on!
Goten: come on you got it!
Trunks: oh yeah!
Rya: …
(Merl and Pan)
(The beam reaches the Machine)
Pan: (Smirks)
(The beam goes right through the machine, but there is no explosion, as a matter of a fact, when the beam goes through the machine, the machine flicker and disappears for a moment and then reappears again like some kind of holographic image)
Pan: huh!? What the hell!?
Merl: (Starts chuckling)
Pan: no… no…. no way!
(The Others)
Gohan: he tricked her…
Goku: we should have seen that!
Rya: I had a feeling that was what was happening… damn… if only I had picked it up sooner.
Trunks: that's what you thought was fishy?
Rya: yeah… it seemed funny that Pan would just happen to find the Blutz Waves machine that easily behind a broken down cliff… he was just pretending to give her hope because he knows she doesn't have any…
Trunks: that bastard!
Goten: if only we could touch him, I'd take him out myself…
Goken: how could this have happened?
Videl: I don't know Goken…
(Merl and Pan)
Merl: (Laughs even more) what a dumb moron! I didn't think you were going to fall for it, but I guess you learn something new every day!
Pan: (Looking away from Merl with a loss of innocence on her face) so… the whole time… It was just a holographic image… and you played along?
Merl: yep. I should get an academy award for my performance. (Starts laughing even more)
Pan: I can't believe I fell for it… I had actually hoped I would have gotten you that time… (Starts getting teary eyed)
Merl: (Laughs even more and louder) now she's crying! (He falls to the ground on his bottom and starts laughing like crazy) that is so hilarious! (He starts kicking his big legs aloud just bawling laughing)
Pan: how could I have been so stupid… how?
(The Others)
Marron: I can't believe that…
Bra: where is the real machine then?
18: it's probably hidden somewhere far off…
Bra: how could he have done something so cruel…?
18: because he's a villain.
Bra: well I guess that's logical.
(Merl and Pan)
Merl: (Continues to laugh on the ground) I can't stop cracking myself up! (Laughs)
Pan: (Turns and around and looks towards Merl) I…I… I will win!
Merl: (Laughs) (He then suddenly stops laughing) and what makes you say that!?
Pan: I know I will, even if it's not this body that beats you, I will defeat you in a different from.
Merl: umm… that sounds kind of creepy when you say it like that…
Pan: shut up…
Merl: (Chuckles) so… now that we have all of those delusions of grandeur out of our heads and we have the whole thinking you found the Blutz Waves thing out of your system… let's get back to the beat down.
Pan: …
Merl: you should be thankful, when you were chasing after that hologram it raised your confidence, and since you raised your confidence you don't feel as much pain… but of course that's all going to change here in a few short seconds… much like before when it was only a short minute that you were going to feel immense pain.
Pan: (Closes her eyes and then opens them again) take this! (She shoots a beam at Merl)
Merl: (Punches the beam back at Pan)
Pan (Screams) (Is hit with the beam)
Merl: hit by your own attack! Now there's a new one!
Pan: (Falls back a little bit)
Merl: alright, no more mister nice toxic! (Runs up to her and grabs her by the arm)
Pan: ahhhhhhhh! Let go of me! Let go of me!
Merl: not until I try this out…. (He raises her in the air by the arm and then slams her into the gravel in the ground)
Pan: ahhhhhhhhh! (As she is slammed into the ground)
Merl: let's try a little more! (Lifts her up again and slams her on the other part of the gravel)
(The Others)
(They are shown either closing their eyes, covering their eyes, scrunching their fists, or they are trying to remain calm)
Rya: I haven't seen something this grueling in a long time…
Goku: I have to stay strong… I can't let my emotions get the best of me! I need to take my own advice.
Vegeta: Kakorot… just do your best.
Gohan: you're feeling what I'm feeling are you dad?
Goku: only a little Gohan… but this is natural for everyone… I love Pan and I can't stand the fact that this is happening to her, but I will make sure not to jump the gun. Not like what you were planning on doing.
Gohan: there was no plan at the time… all I wanted to do was save her life.
Goku: and we can't do that…
Gohan: I know…
Goku: please everyone, let's just remain strong… do it for Pan's sake.
(Merl and Pan)
Merl: (Slams her into the ground again by her arm) alright the arm thing is getting kind of boring… let's try a little something different. (Drops Pan to the ground)
Pan: (Starts coughing up blood again) (She looks at the ground at the blood, her eye starts to get a little blurrier) Mind: no… I have to stay conscious… I must stay conscious if I want to live… I have to! I just have to for everyone! For Goken, for mom, for dad, for Grandpa! For everyone! Out of mind: damn you Merl! (Turns around and throws a punch towards Merl)
Merl: (Grabs it in the air) and you really think you can get passed me with just one little shitty punch? I don't think so… (Literally crushes her hand)
Pan: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Merl: ouch… that got to hurt!
Pan: (Looks at her hand of which is dropping a lot of blood) (She uses the other hand to put pressure on her wounded hand)
Merl: sure, you can stop the bleeding, but like I've noticed before the pain will never stop unless your confidence grows, or you show the pain… of course this time… well this time I don't think that matters because well… this may sound contradictory of my original assessment, but pain is just pain, you feel it all the time! (Starts laughing)
Pan: I hate you! (She shouts out loud)
Merl: wow, how professional is that? You know I said the same thing before when I was getting beaten by you… how ironic.
Pan: (Has a stray tear leave one of her eyes)
Merl: this is still but stage one in your death sentence girl… there's a hell of a lot more coming before you die.
Pan: (Closes her eyes again and opens them) (She then puts her hand in front of her face and notices he eyes are going blurry again because her hand is hardly visible) I have to stay awake… I have to…
Merl: you don't have to worry about that… I'll make sure you stay awake for a long time to come…
Pan: (Coughs up more blood) (Holds onto her mouth)
Merl: you should really watch what you eat…
Pan: …
Merl: anyways, enough standing around… let's get back to work.
Pan: please don't hit me aga-
Merl: (Head buts Pan)
Pan: (Flies back smashing into the ground)
Merl: (Flies over to her and kicks her off the ground into the sky)
Pan: (Thrown in the sky)
Merl: (Reappears in the sky and bangs Pan back down to his last location)
(Last location)
Merl: (Appears again and bangs Pan in the same place in the sky again)
(He then repeats the same process again and again)
(The Others)
Trunks: he's treating her like a tennis ball!
Gohan: (Starts getting angrier) he's getting on my last nerve here! I'm going to kill him
Goku: no Gohan!
Gohan: (Lifts off into the air)
Goku: no!!
Gohan: (Flies into the air to stop Merl)
Narrator: oh no! Gohan is doing what he tried his best to not do! What cost may this have on our hero and if he joins the battle would he even stand a chance? Stay tuned for scenes for the next episode of Dragonball Z2!
Scenes: next time on Z2, the beat down on Pan continues and Gohan is quickly dispatched but not by Merl, by Pan! Pan tells Gohan to stay out of the fight just like Goku had predicated that she'd do if something like this were to happen. But even though she presents this strong suit, she is still being outwitted and out matched by Merl in every way; will this come to an end? You don't want to miss the next action packed Z2!
Dragonball Z2 Episode 96: Horrors of Merl.
Authors Note: I'd just like to say here and now, if anyone feels offended by the recent violence portrayed in Z2 against Pan, I apologize to you. And I never meant to offend; I'm just showing that violence can happen to anyone no matter if you're a man or a woman. This kind of violence against women has been presented in DBZ before when Videl was beaten, and I even did it before on Pan when she fought Rya # 1. Its more realistic if you see the true detail of how demented this villain really is and the lengths he'll go to make a young woman's life a living hell.
