Chapter 14: Lee vs. Uub
Both Gohan and Vegeta fly in to the ring and carry their daughters to the waiting room. The two Saiyan fathers enter the room with Goten and Trunks approaching them to check on Pan and Bra.
"Pan! Pan! Wake up sweetie!" said Gohan as he was shaking her body.
"Wake up Bra! Don't be asleep!" said Vegeta as he was shaking his daughter too.
The two girls begin to open their eyes while they ache in pain. Gohan and Goten sigh in relief as Vegeta and trunks hug Bra in relief as well.
"Ouch, that really hurts," said Bra as her father and brother let go of their hug for her to sit up and look at her friend. "Hey what was that for Pan?!"
"I couldn't figure out anyway to beat you, so I had to do that," respond Pan as she sat up and look at her friend with a smile. "You were a tough opponent."
"Same goes to you."
Gohan, Vegeta, Goten and Trunks sigh in relief to see their family member okay. Uub and Marron came over and look at the many bruises and wounds they see on their younger friends.
"Man, you guys were going all out!" said Marron as she claps her hands cheerfully. "I can't wait to be strong like you two."
Pan and Bra smile at each other for giving each other the fight they wanted since the beginning of the tournament. While Bra was facing Trunks and then Goten, Pan was facing regular human fighters who didn't have the same abilities as Uub or Marron. Which reminds her, Pan look at Lee who was looking at them awe.
'My Kami, you guys were out of control!" said Lee in shock that they were still alive and well.
"Well Earthlings, they are Saiyan warriors and they live as warriors just like us," said Vegeta as he pointed at Pan, Bra, Goten, Trunks, Gohan, and himself.
"Saiyan?" Lee said as he was confused of what the man was saying.
"I'm sorry little guy, but what my friend was saying that they aren't regular people," explained Uub. "These guys were raised by those two who came from an alien race known as Saiyans. Their purpose was to fight like warriors."
"Wow," said an amazed Lee.
He looks at Gohan and Vegeta with sparkle in their eyes. He can ask his grandmother to have those two train him to be a better fighter. If Pan and Bra was able to become stronger than anyone, then maybe he could try to get even stronger.
"So wait, if you are strong like them, and then are you a Saiyan?" asked Lee to Uub."
"Oh no Lee, I'm not a Saiyan. I'm actually a human just like my friend Marron," he replied with Marron nodding in agreement. "Humans can have the same training, but these guys are a lot stronger than us."
"Oh," Lee said while getting everything he was being told.
"But hey, I know there's potential in you buddy. So when it's our turn to get to the ring, I'm going to help you bring out your very best."
Lee scratches the back of his neck nervously before he replies, "O-Okay."
'But I'm not like you guys' he thought as he stand besides Uub for their match.
"Aright ladies and gentlemen, I know that was a crazy fight and the ring is a bit damaged, but don't you worry the tournament will continue," said the ring announcer with the crowd a bit scared now from the previous. "Now, we have the match between Lee and Uub."
Uub and Lee begin to walk in the arena and made their way to the ring. Lee was feeling nervous as he didn't want to show what he is capable to the audience. His grandmother told him he should not let people see what he can do; especially what he has on his forehead. The two fighters made their way to the ring and they bow their head down to show sigh of respect. Lee look around to see his grandmother waving her hand at him. He wave back with a weak smile before he face Uub.
"Remember Lee, you don't have to hold back what you got," said Uub as he set his fighting stance.
Lee gulped in fear as he set his fighting stance.
"Begin!"
Uub was the first charge at the young fighter. Lee quickly leaps up in the air over Uub in panic. Uub was surprises to see Lee jump and land behind him, so he quickly turn around and charge at him. Lee look back to see Uub was almost close to his face. He held his arms up to block the incoming punch from his friend. The young fighter wince in pain as the impact from the punch causes him to swing his arms in pain before a palm hit his nose. Lee holds his nose before Uub begin to rapidly punch at Lee. Lee tries to block every punch, but most would hit him directly.
Lee's grandmother was surprise to see her grandson's defending himself weakly as Uub could able to punch him around. Lee was backing for cover, yet Uub was still at him and the punches were painfully.
"Come on Lee, don't hold back. If you hold back you won't be able to combat," said Uub as he continues to strike Lee.
"I don't want to Uub. I can't," said Lee as he tries blocking the fast and powerful punches. 'I don't want people to see me as a freak."
Lee was backing away from Uub, yet he felt his foot touch nothing. Lee was trying to balance himself as He was at the edge of the ring. Uub stop his punches and saw Lee fall. Lee could see the ground was close he was falling towards it, but he look at his grandmother who look worry to see him about to be out. Le then looks at the crowd as they watch Lee falling off the ring.
"Remember Lee, don't show you power to the tournament. People will shame you if you do," his grandmother warned him when he first wanted to enter the tournament
"I'm sorry grandmother, but it's time that people should know," Lee whispers before he stops himself from landing on the ground.
The audience, including his grandmother, was surprised when Lee begins to levitate up and came back in the ring as they witness it.
"Unbelievable, Lee mange to fly back to the ring!" said the ring announcer in astonishment.
Uub smile at him as Lee smile back before he turns around to look at the crowd.
"Everyone, listen to what I have to say," said Lee. "I may not be s normal person, but I still have feelings and I want to win the grand price for my grandmother, who was he only one who took great care of me when I was a baby. I enter this tournament to help my grandmother be healthy."
Lee's grandmother smile at him as she sees him wanting to have people know who he is. Everyone awe to see this young fighter wants to have a good deed to enter the tournament.
"That is why I, Lee," he said as he remove his green bandanna. "I am proud triclop!"
The audience gasps in shock to see Lee has a third eye on the forehead. Chi-Chi, Bulma and Videl was surprised to see another triclop. His grandmother was surprised that he reveals himself to the audience. Uub was also surprised to see Lee wasn't fully human. Lee then looks back at him with a smile on his face.
"Alight Uub, I'm going to give you everything I got!" said Lee as he set his fighting stance.
Hub smiles back as he set his fighting stance. The crowd watch as the two fighters stares at each other for a few seconds before they charge at one another. Lee throw the first punch as Hub move his body to the side to dodge the attack. He throws a kick at Lee's stomach, but Lee manages to grab it and throw Goku's former pupil up in the air. Uub stop himself in the air as he sees Lee charge a big ki blast and throw it at his direction. Hub slap the ki blast back down, which Lee fly upward to move away from the explosion.
The crowd covers their faces from the smoke while the fighters were up in the air. Uub was happy to see Lee has some ki control. The smile clears for the audience to watch the fight in the air. Uub decide to throw many ki blasts at Lee. Lee look at the many ki blast heading towards him and he fly straight towards them. The triclop manage to dodge every single ki blast passing by to approach Uub. Uub then charge at Lee before the two fighters clash their fists together. Lee draws his fist away from the impact of the punch with Hub trying to get close to him, but Lee kick Hub at his left side of the stomach. Hub holds his stomach before he quickly catches Lee's incoming punch. He then catches another punch from Lee's, leading the older fighters holding both Lee's hands with his.
"Come on Lee, I know there's more in you than just close attacks and ki blasts," said Uub as Lee smirk at him.
"There's some trick in my sleeves I want to do," said Lee as he close his eyes and begin to scream.
Uub look at Lee in concern as Lee was looking like he was in pain. As the triclop continue to scream, two hands suddenly appear from his back. Those hands then stretch for two arms to emerge from Lee's back. Uub was lost before he was punch in the face by Lee's extra fist. He tries to get back, but Lee holds his hands tightly to stay in place as the extra fist were hitting the reincarnation of Kid Buu.
"My goodness, Lee is hitting Uub with his new limbs behind his back!" exclaimed the ring announcer.
The crowd looks up to see Lee holding Uub in place as his extra fists were hitting his opponent. As Lee continues to punch Uub, he was kicked in the face by Uub as the two then descends to the ring. Lee then begins to throw many ki blasts with his four arms up in the air and then begin to shoot the rest at Uub. Uub begin to hit every ki blast up in the air to protect the crowd. He then fly to Lee and knee him on the stomach. Lee didn't see Uub coming while he coughs.
"You almost got me there Lee, but you have to do better than that," Uub, who was going to throw a punch.
Lee then manages to grab Uub's fist before he carries him up. Uub try to get out of the hold, but Lee's hands grab Uub's arm and leg back.
"Get ready for the Rain of Fire!" Lee shouted as Uub was surprised of what he saw.
The ki blast that Lee shot up was coming back down to the ring. Most of the ki blast was hitting Uub as some just got the damaged ring. Uub grunted as each ki blasts was weakening his durability. When all the ki blasts was done, Lee then throw Uub down to the ring. Uub's body bounces on the ring, but he quickly got up and punches Lee on the face. Lee's extra limbs disappear to his back with Lee falling down to the ring as he was caught off guard from Uub's punch. He looks up to quickly dodge an incoming punch from Uub once again. Lee watch as a large portion of the ring was crushed down from Uub's punch. He got up and the two face each other eye to eye again.
"My goodness grace, these fighters are given everything they got!" said the ring announcer with the crowd cheering them on.
Lee's grandmother was clapping her hands together while Buu was whistling loudly. The two fighters look around the crowd. Lee was breathing heavily while Hub only had a small bruise on his lips and his gi was dirty and torn a bit from the Rain of Fire, yet he looks okay. Lee took this as danger knowing that Hub was a powerful opponent and he wasn't going to get down that easy.
"You're doing good Lee. Just continue given me everything you got," said Uub as he set his fighting stance.
"Alright then Uub," said Lee before he quickly closes his eyes and held his arms out.
Uub watch as Lee was breathing slowly before he was glowing white. The audience was in awe to see what else the triclop was going to do. It took a few seconds before Lee's body was changing. Another Lee emerge out of Lee, and then another and then another. Hub was again surprised as four Lee was in front of him.
The four Lee's charge at him quickly, which Hub was ready to take them on. On Lee was going for a punch, but Hub grabs it. Another was going for a kick but Uub block. The Lee's surrounds Hub as they quickly begin to throw rapid punches and kicks at Uub. Uub was blocking most of the attacks, but some attacks did made contact.
Hub was getting tired of this and he decides to form a ki barrier. He then stretches his arms for the barrier to push the Lees off. The three Lee's disappear and one Lee was in the ring getting up. Lee then charge ki in his hand and aim it at Uub.
"Dodon Ray!"
The small ki beam was heading to Uub, who was charging his own ki attack.
"Kamehameha!"
The Kamehameha wave head towards the Dodon Ray before they clash against each other spectacularly. The two beams explode from impact for the two fighters quickly charge forward. The audience watches as the two throws a punch at each other. Lee landed a punch on Uub's stomach as Uub landed a punch at Lee's face. Lee was launch back a few feet with Hub quickly begin to move around Lee. Lee was looking around to only see afterimages of Hub before he begins to fell punches and kicks around his body. He groan in pain as Uub continue to attach around him. Lee then looks carefully as Hub continues to move around him. His three eyes begin to follow Uub's movement and wait for the right time to strike.
When Uub was ready to strike again, Lee screams as he throw a punch. That punch hit Uub on the face. Lee then kicks Uub on his legs to bring him down. Uub drop on the ring with Lee quickly knee him on the back. Hub gasp in pain before Lee kick him up. Uub fly in the air as Lee was flying towards him. Uub stop himself in the air to catch Lee incoming kick. Lee wanted Hub to release him but Uub begin to spin him fast. Lee feels like throwing up before he was thrown back to the ring. Unlike Uub, Lee could stop the impact as he slam to the ring. Lee slowly got up with his back in pain with Uub descending to the ring.
"You're a greater fighter Lee. Maybe I could train you after this tournament," said Hub as he him.
"Yeah... That would be a good decision," Lee responds while he struggle standing up and his eyes were feeling heavily.
Lee approach his opponent in small steps before he throw a punch. Uub was aware of the punch, but Lee's stop near his face. Then, Uub quickly grab Lee as the triclop fainted. Lee's grandmother was shock to see Lee down as Buu was cheering for Uub's victory.
"That's it folks! The winner of this match is Uub!"
