Gohan and Videl raced down the corridor they found themselves in. After leaving Goten behind to fight Cell, it hadn't taken them long to sense Tien and Trunks starting their own fights. Since there had been three fights already, that left one android unaccounted for.

While there could've been a two on one fight with two androids against either Tien or Trunks, it seemed unlikely since previous battles with this group showed a strong urge for one-on-one fights.

As she ran with the saiyan, Videl couldn't help but notice how she was keeping up with him. After some startling revelations, the Satan girl had figured the Son boy would've left her in the dust a long time ago. Whether he was keeping his speed down to a point she could keep up or she could actually maintain a high speed with him, she didn't know but she wasn't gonna question it at this time. There were more important matters to worry about.

Like where the relic key was along with that last android.

Up ahead, the pair noticed the hall ended and a room was revealed. Keeping at their pace, they entered the chamber and were relieved to find that it held an altar in it; one that held a stone key on its podium. There was just one problem.

Between them and the altar stood Angie Zeventien, his arms crossed over his chest and an arrogant smirk on his face.

"I've been waiting for you," he called out once Gohan and Videl came into the room and stopped upon noticing him. "Do you know how boring a place like this gets when you aren't fighting someone?"

A stern look came over Gohan's face. "Videl, I want you to stay out of this fight; you hear me? This is between me and him."

"Like Hell I'm staying out!" Videl exclaimed. "I'm not gonna be sitting on the sidelines when I could be helping you."

"This fight is way over your head," the saiyan retorted, one of his eyes looking at her while the other made sure Angie didn't try any surprise attacks. "You'll only get hurt."

"That's what fighting's all about," the Satan girl countered. "Besides, I refuse to sit aside and let you get injured. I won't allow my inaction to hurt you like it did when Gero stabbed you with his hand."

A small silence passed before Gohan said the most liberating words to her; one's that elated her. "Choose your striking times carefully. I wouldn't want to hurt you on accident. Also, try not to use too many ki blasts. He can absorb them and use it to become stronger."

"I got ya," Videl confirmed as she began to smirk.

"Well, I'm glad you got over your spat," Angie taunted as his arms dropped to his sides. "But now its time we got down to business."

With both of his eyes back on the android, the saiyan answered "Impatient to die huh?"

Angie snorted. "Unlikely. The only one dying here is you, followed by your little girlfriend there. Or perhaps you'd like me to kill her first. Get rid of any baggage you may have."

Slowly, a golden aura began to envelop the Son boy before it quicken and raged around him; his familiar blond hair and teal eyes becoming apparent. "You were nothing more than talk the first time I killed you; there won't be much of a difference this time."

Angie's eyes narrowed. "We'll see about that." Raising both of his hands up, the tips of his fingers glowed a bright yellow before each tip fired an energy beam; the beams racing towards its targets.

Before Gohan could even gesture for Videl to get out of the way, the Satan girl had slipped behind him, using him as a shield for the attack. Reacting as the beams drew near, the Super Saiyan swung one of his arms out and swatted away a beam away; repeating that action with his other hand as well. Oddly enough, only a few blasts had come anywhere near hurting the saiyan; something that didn't sit well with him.

That was when Angie came charging in and slammed his right into Gohan's face, causing him to whip his head to a side. Heeding his instructions, Videl dashed away from the two fighters, putting distance between the two. Counterattacking, the Son boy threw his own punch, one that was easily dodged by his opponent who threw another one at him. A series of punches and kicks were soon thrown by each combatant; neither of them landing a blow as each one was blocked, dodged, or parried.

It was this time Videl found herself staring at the fight with a clear shot at Angie's back. Though Gohan had warned her of using ki blasts, she knew she had a good shot at making a difference in this fight. Charging up her ki, she raised both her arms in front of her and fired a ki blast.

And as she had hoped, her blast nailed the android in the back, causing him to flinch from the sudden detonation on his back. Though only a few burn marks were the only obvious damage to him, to the Satan girl's dismay, it was enough for him to drop his guard as Gohan slammed his elbow into the man's face, keeping him stunned.

Crouching down a bit, the Son boy slammed several punches into Angie's unguarded stomach, causing the android to bend down as he lost his breath. Then with as much strength as he could gather, Gohan slammed his fist into his opponent's face, sending him flying away. Fortunately, Videl had moved again, making sure she wasn't in the way of the flying android.

To say that Gohan was surprised by how careful Videl was being would've been an understatement. His original thought was that she'd be attacking with reckless abandon, making herself more of a hindrance than an asset. Perhaps this fight would be easier than he thought.

"You're better than I thought," Angie said, taking his time while getting back onto his feet. The android had been slammed up against the altar, cracking its base; though it was surprisingly still intact. The tall fighter had sat on his haunches as he recovered before attempting to get back into the fight.

"That's what happens when you overestimate yourself," Gohan replied with a smirk. "I'm not sure how they teach people to fight on Earth, but where I come from, they teach us to never underestimate our opponent and overestimate ourselves."

"I was talking about the girl," Angie shouted back, obviously irritated.

The smirk never left the saiyan's face. "So was I."

That comment pushed the android over the edge, causing him to shout a war cry and charge his opponent. Holding one arm in front of him, he fired an energy blast towards his foe.

In response, Gohan leapt into the air, the energy blast exploding where he last stood. Keeping his eyes on his opponent, the saiyan saw Angie stop his charge as he landed on the ground, a very displeased look on his face as he raised his arm higher up and fired another energy blast.

Keeping his current flight, the beam flew underneath the warrior, just like its predecessor. However, before Angie could fire another blast, Videl had entered the fray again, landing a kick on his face and causing his head to jerk to aside.

That was when the android shocked both Gohan and Videl when his hand suddenly grabbed the girl's leg and a smirk covered his face. He had been setting that situation up the whole time, much to both fighters' dismay. Pulling, Angie swung the Satan girl in the air and sent her flying away. With the same arm, he straightened it out and fired an energy blast after her, intending on knocking her out of the fight…permanently.

Once again, astonishment caught the saiyan and android. Instead of being nailed by the energy attack, at the last moment Videl used a burst of speed to disappear, leaving the beam to fly away harmlessly.

This time, Gohan went on the attack, using his own burst of speed to appear right in front of Angie and ram his knee into his face. Unlike Videl's blow, this one stunned the android, leaving him open for attack.

Holding his arm in front of him, Gohan extended the appendage, his hand latching onto Angie's face and forcing him to the ground; his head colliding and cracking it due to the force, sending up a cloud of smoke.

Watching that move, Videl was amazed by the extra long arm of her comrade's. Never had she heard of a saiyan stretching their anatomy before. Hopefully the saiyan would explain how exactly he did that after their fight.

Landing on the ground next to Angie's fallen body, Gohan quickly moved to grab the android's leg. Using all of his strength, he picked his opponent's body off the ground, swung it over his head, and slammed him back onto the ground. Still hanging onto the man's leg, the saiyan twisted his body to a side, swinging the android off the ground, and threw him towards a wall. Charging up his ki, Gohan was just about to fire the expected ki blast when he stopped in his tracks.

Although Angie appeared to be helpless as he careened towards the wall, it was quite possible he was just waiting for a chance to absorb some of his ki. Lowering his arm down, the saiyan released his hold on his power and waited for his opponent's next move.

As it turned out, it had been fortunate that Gohan stayed his blast. Instead of crashing into the wall, Angie's arm shot out in front of him, pressing up against the wall a second later. Bending his elbows, the android straightened them and swung his lower body upward, causing him to rebound off the wall and fly up into the air.

Not allowing him to recover any further, Gohan launched himself at the android, swinging a fist at him once he got close to his upside-down foe. In response, Angie dodged the blow and threw one of his own in retaliation; this one also being dodged. Soon, both fighters were throwing, dodging, blocking, and landing punches. Looking at it from afar, it looked pretty odd to see one of the fighter's upside-down.

Their stalemate of punches came to an end soon though, with Angie nailing Gohan in the stomach, causing him to bend over somewhat. Taking advantage of the situation, the android, swung one of his legs and landed the kick on the saiyan's shoulder, sending him falling to the ground.

Fortunately, Gohan recovered himself before he hit the floor; landing on his feet and pushing off against the ground, dashing away.

Angie, however, merely smirked before using a burst of speed to disappear from sight. The next thing Gohan or Videl knew, the android had reappeared with his elbow nailing the saiyan in the back of his head, causing him to crash to the ground, skidding a short distance away.

Staring at his fallen opponent, Angie couldn't help the grin that appeared on his face. Though the fight had been pretty even, he was enjoying the shots his was delivering to his foe. However, he wouldn't let his current satisfaction get the better of him as he suddenly noticed a glow appear at the corner of his eye. Turning his attention to, he saw the Satan girl firing a ki blast at him.

With his smirk firmly fixed, he straightened his body out and raised an arm up, catching the blast with his hand. A second later, he could feel the energy flowing into his body, energizing him.

Videl, on the other hand, looked bewildered upon seeing her attack being absorbed. She had already landed a blast on the guy earlier and nothing like this had occurred then. It wasn't until her entire beam had been absorbed did she finally realized why. The jewel in the android's hand had finally revealed itself to the girl and reminded her about Gohan's warning before the fight. Damn it all! She had just given this guy an energy boost!

"I have to thank you for that," Angie said haughtily. "I've been needing a quick charge for the past few minutes. Allow me to show my appreciation by killing you with the same energy you just gave me."

The next thing the Satan girl knew, Angie was right in front of her, his knee firmly imbedded in her stomach. A quick gasp shot out of her mouth, along with some spit. Pain was running rampant throughout her body, paralyzing her where she stood.

In the meantime, Angie crossed his arm over his chest. Then with a swing, he backhanded the dark headed girl across her face, sending her flying away. Videl landed on the floor a distance away, skidding even further. It took her a few seconds before she began to move, slowly sitting up as she held one of her arms. Her shoulder hadn't taken her crash all too well as a throbbing pain ran all through it. It even hurt when she tried to move it at all. Not a good situation for her at the moment.

Fortunately, Angie hadn't continued his assault on her, giving her a little time to recover a bit. However, she soon wished he had when she turned to look at him. Standing with his legs spread apart, the android held both of his arms out in front of him, a black and white ball of energy with red electricity dancing on it and a black aura around it forming in front of them.

"Here, girl; let me introduce you to my Electric Hellsphere," Angie said, an insane look on his face. "It'll be the last introduction you'll ever have!"

Videl immediately went into panic mode. She needed to get out of the way of that…thing before it blew her into more pieces than a jigsaw puzzle.

And that didn't sit well with her long term plans.

Looking towards Gohan, the girl felt her heart sank as the saiyan appeared dazed; having much trouble trying to get up. There was no way any help was coming from that avenue.

Ignoring the pain in her shoulder, Videl began trying to get onto her feet only to fall back to the ground as she cried out in pain. Great, not only was her shoulder injured, but apparently she had hurt her left leg as well. Turning it slightly, the Satan girl could feel dread welling up insider her as she saw a jagged piece of stone in her leg. How she hadn't recognized the injury until then was a mystery to her. Reaching for it, she screamed in pain as she tore it out. Unfortunately, that was all the time she had to struggle for her life.

"I hope you're ready to die, girl!" Angie shouted, sounding completely mad. "Cause here it comes!" And with that, the dark ball of energy was fired at Videl.

Two screams sounded off soon after.


To Sigfried Wild: Lmao wow, I hadn't thought about that. Trunks must've made a quick visit to the Ranma Universe for some training during the time between updates. Good catch.
