Shenron smiled inwardly, watching as Nebarid fell back in recoil after the stunning blow dealt to him earlier. Within the same moment, his guard dropped and in this line of work, any time spent without defense could spell the e-n-d for you. Shenron's large brick like fists began to pommel their way through his foe's smaller body, battering him left and right. In minutes, Nebarid was reduced to a bloody mess, but he held on and recollected himself in time to slip out of the line of offense. In that instant, the little speeder barreled into Shenron's legs from behind, then into his abdomen from above. Shenron didn't hit the ground, having recovered in time. Nebarid had lowered himself to the ground. Energy burning around him like a mini nova, Nebarid steeled himself for another round, but then Shenron's counter from earlier caught up to him and his energy dissipated. The concussion sent his mind reeling as he lost focus and nearly keeled over.

Zuyoi was there to catch him as he dropped to his knees. "Well, that didn't go as wel as I hoped." he said breaking the silence that had begun with the fight. His sister helped him hobble over to where Leon stood, taking everything into account as he prepared for his turn.

"At least you gave it your all. Its my turn now, and I'll do the same." She smiled at her brother sitting him down on the heavily disturbed terrain next to his teacher.

"You get 'em Z." Now it was officially the second bout and The powerhouse was up. Zuyoi stretched her shoulders and pounded her fists together with a sickening crack.

"Okay, tall-dark-and-ugly, lets see how you do agains someone who hits harder than you.

"Such insolence. Now, on to the slaughter. I'm eager to settle an old score." Shenron looked in Leon's direction.

"Then come at me and do something about it!" In a burst of red, and a wave of concussive force, Zuyoi was up to a comfortable max power. Fists tightening, she launched herself to the dragon before her, who retaliated with similar action. The two collided fist to fist, however, in the same fashion as a certain legendary super saiyan, Zuyoi plowed forward as though nothing was there to oppose her charge. The undisturbed momenum was sent straight for Shenron's chest and pressed on. Caught in he unfamiliarity of helplessness, Shenron could do nothing as he was carried into the nearest rock face. Zuyoi held him against a plateau, bringing her other fist up for a pounding. "Lets see how heavy-handed I really am." All that was heard after was a thundering and a rumble of crumbling rock as half the plateau disintegrated behind Shenron.

Meanwhile, with the spectators...

"I've always known she was something special. Glad to see she's ready to prove it..." Nebarid spoke aloud expecting a response but was greeted with the same silence as before he said anything. "Uh, Leon? You're doing the quiet thing again."

Hearing his name, the teacher broke his mental trance. "I'm sorry. Focusing too much and my mind drifted." He had paid attention to the battle but he wasn't entirely focused.

"Sometimes I wonder how you focused enough to train us."

"You'd be surprised at what I do to keep up a certain level of focus."

"What does that even mean?"

"Don't worry about it."

Back at the battle...

The dust settled from the collapsed background. Shenron was forced back about halfway through he plateau's length, arms crossed. He put his guard up in time to blunt the impact of Zuyoi's fist. His forearms were heavily bruised but he stood straight, ignoring his injury. "You've quite the strength for your size. But enough of these childish games. This is the big boys' league!"

"That was my line."

In an instant, the two were pounding each other with auras having a similar battle for supremacy. Resounding cracks generated waves of force that uprooted forests and what remained of the clouds overhead. Powering up as they fought, heir energies became so bright, outshining the sun at such short distance.

Zuyoi got a solid hit in sending Shenron reeling into the ground, flat on his back, followed by Zuyoi's knee planting firmly somewhere between his lungs and colon. He retaliated with a kick to the back of her head, launching her across the fields. This break away allowed for a temporary ceasefire as the two sized the other up.

Although Alpha shenron was physically damaged, he showed no signs of fatigue, but he did develop some sore spots on his uper arms and shins. Just have to work him up until the sensitivity is unbearable for him. And she has yet to try an attack on his focus. So, thats whats coming next. Doing so slowly as to avoid ki sense, she begins to concentrate energy into her hands. In another burst of energy, the two raced towards the other.

Zuyoi lead her charge with her head as though preparing a full body tackle. Shenron braced for a counter move, but she stopped just short of him and swung open palms at either side of the mystic's head. He moved his head back, but still felt the intentions of the attack. Zuyoi's energy enhanced clap sent concentrated waves of sound rushing into Shenron's head, forcing him to cover his ears in agony.

"Blasted worm! What did you do?!"

Needless to say he didn't hear the response. Not that it was verbal. All that came next was a similar occurence to when Nebarid assualted him, although not as fast and with much heavier blows. A right fist plowed into his face and to his right, followed by the same elbow bashing into the side of his head. Before he was pushed too far, he was gripped by the shoulder, pulled back, and hit in the ribs with a hard knee. Recoilin in pain, Zuyoi instantly moved behind him and dropped a hammer fist into him from above.

Oh, how the mighty hath fallen. As he lay on the ground, he wretched and coiled repeatedly, for damage had been done, and he could do nothing as he was also javing a war in his mind. His power began to fluctuate, sending waves of black aura into the environment, sudden and violent, breaking away the earth beneath and generatin powerful winds. Not to long later, it became too fierce for Zuyoi to handle at such close proximity, so she backed away near her brother and mentor.

Just when another wave of force prepared to shock the environment, it held in place and solidified, if thats possible for pure energy, and at quite the sizee, leaving a huge energy field around Shenron. The fluctuations were also visible as his aura kept shifting between black and white, like a monochrome strobe light.
