Ch. 2

Z Warriors vs. Privaron Espada

Gohan, "You're not like the other monsters? Who are you?"

The tallest Arrancar spoke, "Let's introduce ourselves. My name is Anbessa Cortez. My number is 101."

The second one spoke, "My name is Emiliana Valdez. My number is 102."

The third one spoke, "My name is Reyes Pizarro. My number is 106."

Gohan, "You're not making any sense. We've never seen you're kind until now."

Anbessa, "Then you were able to prolong your life. We serve Lord Aizen. We are Privaron Espada. We are also known as Arrancars. We are former hollows who had our masks taken off."

Gohan turned to his Dad, "Do you know what's going on?"

Goku shakes his Dad, "I wish I did. Anyhow, keep your guard up. They're extremely strong." He then faced the former Espada, "You mentioned we would be useful to your cause. What does that mean?"

Anbessa, "You'll find out soon enough."

Reyes, "Can we kill them already? This is very boring."

Emiliana, "You're always complaining. Can't you have a little more patience?"

Reyes, "What? I think you need to shut up. I'll use my Cero on you."

Anbessa, "Why don't both of you shut up? I think killing them is a perfect idea. The numbers are even, so one for each of us. I'll take the father."

Reyes, "You always get the strongest."

Emiliana, "That's because you're the weakest. I'll take the older brother."

Reyes, "Guess I'm stuck with the brat."

Goku, "You guys be careful."

"We will", they said simultaneously.

The Z fighters and the former Espada each flew into the air and picked different locations to fight.

Goku stared at his opponent. The Arrancar was extremely well built, like a football player. He also noticed something different about him compared to the other hollows. The remains of a mask were on his chin.

Anbessa, "I knew you were the strongest. That's why I chose you."

Goku, "Be careful what you wish for."

Anbessa, "I enjoy a challenge."

Goku, "Bring it on."

Espada 101 flew at Goku. The two enemies began punching and dodging each other. The Arrancar started using his Sonido. Goku stood there, waiting for his next move.

Goku, "That's pretty impressive, Arrancar."

The Arrancar appeared behind Goku. As soon as he tried to punch Goku, he teleported out of the way.

Goku appeared behind him and threw a roundhouse kick. The Arrancar blocked it with his hand. The hollow then opened his mouth and a huge beam of red light appeared. The Cero launched itself at the Saiyan. However, he deflected it with his arm. The Arrancar began throwing several balas at him. Goku dodged all of them and charged a Kamehameha.

"Kamehameha!"

The blast hurled itself at the hollow. He quickly took out his sword and deflected the beam.

Anbessa, "I doubt you'll be able to do much of anything without a sword. I'll be able to cut right through your body."

Goku, "I highly doubt that."

Anbessa flew at Goku and began swinging his sword. Every time he swung at the Saiyan, Goku put up an energy shield around that part of the body. The 101st Espada increased spiritual pressure into his sword. He then used his Sonido and appeared at Goku's side. Goku blocked the attack with his arm, but it was severely cut. Anbessa then threw a roundhouse kick at his opponent which sent him smashing into the ground.

Goku got up from the ground. He looked at his wounded arm. It looked as bad as it felt. The pain was incredible. However, he figured it would be fine for a while. He flew into the air, and turned into a Super Saiyan.

Goku, "Now, this is where the real battle begins."

Emiliana faced her opponent, "You know, you're kind of cute. I think we should go on a date", she said as she tossed back her pink ponytail.

Gohan, "Sorry, but I have a girlfriend. She'd feel pretty bad if I dumped her for a freak like you."

Emiliana, "Ow, that hurts. I was just beginning to like you. Oh well, I'll have much more fun killing you instead!"

Gohan and Emiliana had just started fighting. Gohan couldn't believe how much stronger this monster was compared to the rest of them. It looked like she had been shot with a lazer in her right shoulder. Surrounding her nose and eyes were the remains of a mask.

He had just sensed his Dad turn into a Super Saiyan, so he figured that his opponent was extremely tough. Just then, the Arrancar drew her sword and swung at Gohan's right side. He put an energy shield around his arm, which blocked the attack.

Emiliana, "Don't get distracted. I'm very strong."

Gohan, "I got that. I never underestimate my opponent." He then charged an energy beam at the former Espada, which she deflected with her sword.

Gohan, "Nor am I intimidated by them."

Emiliana, "That technique is very similar to my bala. Allow me to demonstrate."

She kept her sword in her right hand, as a read beam engulfed her left hand. She threw several of them at Gohan, but he deflected them. Emiliana then charged a Cero, which Gohan couldn't dodge. The blast flung him into the forest. Several trees fell on top of him.

Emiliana, "I'm sure your father would've put up a better fight. I'm sure he'd be disappointed."

Gohan hadn't felt this sore since he fought Super Buu. The Cero alone was bad enough, and the trees, well they didn't help any.

Emiliana, "I don't have all day."

Gohan slowly got up and removed the trees. He picked one up, and began swinging it around. He then launched it at his opponent.

Gohan, "I don't have all day either!"

He flew into the air just as the Arrancar got hit by the tree.

Gohan, "I have a date with my girlfriend tonight. I would really enjoy it if all of my ligaments were attached."

The Arrancar crashed into the ground. She soon got up and jumped into the air.

Emiliana, "Actually, you won't have any of your ligaments. Your girlfriend will be visiting your ashes."

Gohan, "I wouldn't count on that. You see, my dad is very proud of me." Gohan then charged his power and became as strong as a super saiyan, without the golden hair. Gohan, "As the saying goes, like father like son."

Emiliana, "Impossible."

Goten couldn't stop looking at the hole in the hollow's head. Every time he saw it, he couldn't stop laughing. The hollow reminded him of his Dad when he was a Super Saiyan three. He had long black hair that went down to his calves. Goten could also see the remains of a mask on his opponent's shoulder blades.

Reyes, "What's so funny?"

Goten, "Oh, nothing. You just give the word airhead a new meaning."

Reyes, "I see. You think my hole is really funny? Well, I'll make you stop laughing."

Goten charged an energy ball and threw it into Reyes' hollow hole. He had perfect aim. Goten, "Good target practice. I've been a little out of shape since Majin Buu."

Reyes, "You're really going to pay now, you little brat."

He then used his Sonido and appeared right behind Goten. He grabbed his leg and threw him into the ground. A huge beam of red light engulfed the hollow's palm as he released a Cero. Goten dodged the attack at the last second.

Goten, "You're pretty fast. Fast enough for me to go Super." He focused and became a Super Saiyan. His hair changed into gold as a golden aura surrounded his body.

Reyes, "I see you can go one level higher. Well, so can I." He then took out his sword. "Smell, Zorillo."

Goten could feel an intense burst of energy come at him. The former Espada's body was becoming engulfed in black. Behind his back, was a skunk's tail. At this, Goten started laughing even more.

Reyes, "Laugh now, kid."

His tail began to emitted a thick green fog. The fog soon encircled Goten and he couldn't see. No matter how much he squinted, Goten was now completely blind.

Reyes, "People always laugh at my release form until they feel its power."

Goten could feel himself being punched in the chest. He then felt a Cero being thrown into him. Goten tried to defend himself, but he couldn't see anything coming. The Cero threw the Saiyan to the ground, and he couldn't get up.

Reyes, "Time for the finishing move."

Just then, Ichigo's voice could be heard. "Getsugatenshou!" The blast collided with the Privaron Espada and he went flying into the sky.

Ichigo, "Well, Renji, looks like we got here just in time."
