Chapter 5: Goku and Krillin's Kids Face Off; Goten vs. Marron
After Bra's victory celebration, Goten and Marron were ready to walk out of the arena as it was their turn to fight against each other. The two young fighters look around the crowd with much amputation in their eyes.
Goten felt good being in the tournament again because not only he met his father for the first time, but he also became a fighter as well for the first time. Marron was put in the tournament because she wanted to do something for her parents. Seeing how they were a literal power couple, she thought she can be a fighter one day to protect them when they get older. The two young fighters felt great to compete.
"Hey guys, make sure you have fun," said Bra as Pan nods with thumbs up.
"Watch yourself Goten, Marron isn't a normal human fighter," Trunks warns his best friend.
Goten and Marron nods to their peers as they wait for their names to be call out.
"Alright folks, we are in our fourth match and this might be another good match. Stepping in for his third in the tournament is the youngest son of Son Goku, Son Goten. And for her debut match, she is the daughter of Krillin and Android 18. Please give a warm welcome to Marron! With two r's."
The two fighters begin to make their way to the ring as the people watch the young adult Goten with his similar to on and Marron wearing the Turtle go similar of her father while almost look identical to her mother. Killing and Android 18 couldn't help but cheer for their daughter.
"Do your best Marron!" shouted Krillin with happiness.
"Make sure you kick Goten's butt!" shouted Android 18 trying to be funny, which was funny to her as she did face Goten and Trunks when they were kids.
Marron was feeling better to hear her parents cheering for her. It was a good feeling that was better than anything else in her life besides their unconditional love for her.
"Go easy on her Goten! This is her first match!" shouted Gohan as he knew his brother to be a bit reckless.
Goten lightly chuckle as the two fighters enter the ring. The two then bow down before they set up their fighting stance. The announcer watches the two remembering how Killing and Goku met in the same ring and face each other like their kids.
"Alright people the match will begin..."
He then signals someone to bring three drummers with three staff workers beginning to roll the drums. The sound of the drum beat start slow before they speed it up. Nostalgia hit Krillin as he remembers facing Goku for the first time. Goten and Marron look at each other with a smile as the two can't wait to start. The drums then suddenly stops
"...Now!"
On cue, Marron first charge at Goten. Goten was surprised as Marron start to kick. Goten quickly blocks and dodges them before he begins to kick towards her. Marron then begins to block Goten kicks. The audiences watch in see to see the two fighters fight so fast that it almost looks like blurs when the two either kick or punch. They watch the young fighters moving around the ring while battling each other. Krillin watch in awe to see his daughter fighting just like him in his younger days. Gohan watch with a smile seeing his little brother fighting.
As Marron tried her best to fight back, Goten manages to connect a punch in her face. It causes Killing and Android 18 to jump out of their seats. They watch their daughter back up as she flips away from Goten before she stand on her feet. She touches her face feeling the impact of Goten's fist.
"You are going to pay for that...! Goten?"
Marron looks around to see her opponent disappear. She looks around as the audience also wonders where Goku's second son went. Marron then felt something behind. She quickly ducks down as Goten miss his kick. He tried to strike on her, but Marron disappears to punch his back. Goten felt a great impact of pain before he and Marron disappear to fight each other in afterimages. The audiences were still silence in awe of the fight as the old Z Fighters were cheering on.
"Come on Marron!" cheered Killing and Android 18.
"You can do it Goten!" cheered Gohan and Chi-Chi.
"This is fun for Buu to watch," said Buu entertained.
In the waiting room, the young Z Fighters were cheering for the both of them as the other fighters were starting to rethink of returning the tournament.
Bulls and Vegeta were enjoying watch the two family cheer for their family member. Goten and Marron reappears in the middle of the ring as they stare at each other again.
"Wow, this is another best fighter to remember!" the announcer said as people cheer for them.
"Wow, you almost got me there Goten," said Marron with a smile.
"You're telling me, I thought you were going to take me out when you strike first," Goten added with a smile as well.
The audience was still cheering as the two fighters then went to their stance again. This time, Marron quickly charge to Goten with an elbow. Goten slap her elbow away, but her knee manage to hit on his stomach to cause him to grunt. He hops back before as he launch himself up. Marron quickly did the same. The two young fighters went up close to the sky. Goten stop in midair and try to swing his fist at Marron. She then disappears before his fist made the connection. Goten was surprised before Marron reappear with a karate chop to his neck. Goten was launched down from the attack, yet he safely lands with his feet. He runs his neck and look up to see Marron charging for him.
The third half human half Saiyan grinned in delight to see Martin was doing okay before he leaps up heading for her. The daughter of Krillin knew how fast Goten was heading for her. She tried to stop, but she blocks a power punch from her opponent. She was launched back up before Goten appear above her and slam her down. Marron screams as her body was pull down hard by the slam. She looks down to see Goten waiting for her to come to her. She has to think of a way to stop herself from getting to Goten. Marron then got an idea.
Goten wait for Marron to approach to him so he can do his combo set. As he then jump to the air, Marron was sucking air itself. Goten notices this but still charge at Krillin's daughter. As he was approaching her, Marron's body change its form to be round, which cause Goten to miss his target as he just pass her. Marron then exhales all the air of her body. The audience looks confused and strange to see her change like that.
Krillin begins to chuckle quietly while Android 18 had no clue what she did.
"What was that Krillin?" asked Android 18.
"That is what I called the balloon technique. I created myself when I need to slow down in case someone fast would try to hit me in midair," Krillin explained as he smile to see his daughter lands on her feet in the ring.
Goten also landed in the ring, but he was surprised that Marron was able to stop herself after he push her down hard.
"Whoa, I never knew you can do that!" exclaimed Goten.
"Thank you for noticing. I learn that from my father," said Marron with a smile on her face.
"Well, you're going to have to do more along the way."
Goten started to run to Marron as she was ready to defend herself. When he was close to her, Marron goes for the punch. Goten then disappear and reappear above her. He drops a leg on her, yet Marron manages to block it with her arms cross above her. The power of the kick caused her to go down on one knee and the ring to crack. Marron then quickly grabs his leg and brought him down for her fist to collide with his stomach. Goten grasp for air before he drop to the ground.
"Hey referee, start counting!" shouted Android 18 while pointing at the down Goten.
The referee looks at her before he starts to count.
"1...2...3..."
Before the referee could finish, Goten push himself back up and set up his fighting stance.
"Man, you know you to punch hard just like your mother," mentioned the son of Goku while he rubs his stomach.
"What can I say, my mother is a hard hitter," said Marron as she set up her fighting stance just like her mother's.
The two then charge at each other once again. The crowd goes wild as they were trying to choose who was going to win this fight. Some says Goten, other says Marron, but the old Z Fighters were just enjoying the match. Marron manages to hit Goten with a kick in the ribs and a punch on the face, as Goten manage to hit her with a hit on her stomach and a kick to the face. The two were trading blows at each other before they back up to catch their breath.
Marron observed Often as she notices he still have some fighting spirit left him. She has to think of a way to at least weaken him. She begins to hop her way to the half Saiyan before she kick. Her kick was useless however as Goten move aside and karate chop her to the ring. She jump back up to try land a punch on him, but he grab her and throw her away from him. She landed in the ring frustrated how he manages to stop her from winning the match.
"There has to be a way Goten won't see me coming to him," she thought as Goten was slowly walking towards her. "Actually, there is one thing I haven't tried."
Goten was going to charge at Marron, but he notice she put her hands her side as she bend down.
"KAME..."
"Marron, you can't be serious?!"
"HAME..."
Goten then start to set his father's signature move.
"KAME...HAME..."
"HA!"
"HA!"
The two fighters set off their Kamehameha waves. The power beams then crash to each other as the audience watch the breathtaking visual beam struggle. Martin and Goten continues to push their power beams at each other while the beams flash. Goten then push it forward for his beam to push towards Marron's direction. The beam then disappears with smile quickly facing away. Goten then saw in front of him the ring burned and the audience's look of shock with their hair messy from being close to the beam struggle, but no Marron. Goten lower his arms and expect Marron to reappear, but he then felt a great impact on his arm. He turns to his side to see Marron kick at his arm as it bends wrong.
"Oh my goodness, Marron have broken Goten's arm with a powerful kick!" exclaimed the announcer as the audience watch in shock.
Goten drops to one knee as he place a hand on the broken arm. Marron then notices this and looks in shock as much as everyone else in the arena.
"Goten! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to..."
"No, no, it's okay. It's my fault for getting distracted," Goten said as he grabs his arm and bend it back. Martin and everyone cringed with Goten scream in pain. He looks at his arm one more time to see he could move it correctly. "You should be proud... It's tough to break a Saiyan arm... But you are the daughter of Krillin and Android 18."
Marron chuckled lightly before the two fighters charge at each other once again. Marron kick at Goten, but he dodge it. He then goes for a punch, but Marron dodges it too. They both jump to the air again as they continue to brawl. The fast punches and kicks were keeping people in suspense seeing how fast they were striking at each other. Marron then manages to punch Goten on the stomach before she descends to the ground. She looks up to see Goten disappear. She looks around expecting him to reappear, but she doesn't see him.
"Goten? Where are you?" asked Marron as she was ready to punch the younger brother of Gohan. She looks around while the crowd watches.
Then out of nowhere, Goten reappear as he did a palm attack on her stomach. Marron was launched back before she fell off the ring. The whole crowd watch in disbelief as Marron looks around to notice she was out of the ground.
"It seems that Marron is out. The winner of the match is Goten!" the announcer announced with the audiences cheer for the winner. Marron was getting up, but she look up to see Goten lending a hand.
She accepts it as she was brought up to the ring with Goten raising her arm up.
"I didn't have an easy match with her. She might lose in this match, but later on she can win," Goten speak as the crowd cheer on.
Marron felt happy to have a childhood friend support her. She blushed in embarrassment before the two were waiting back to the waiting room. As the two enter, they were greeted by their friends as they bother were in a group hug.
"That was cool! The way you guys just punching and kicking each other! I was guessing who was going to win," said Bra.
"You did good Marron. I thought you were going to win, but you still have enough to at least fight off uncle Goten," said Pan as she pat her friends back.
"You were great Goten, but I think you need to train more," recommend Trunks as Goten scratch the back of his neck.
"Yeah I should do that," said Goten as he chuckles.
