Dragon Ball: Space Adventures

About as well it could have gone VII

Time passed, maybe it was minutes or seconds, perhaps hours, but it passed and meant nothing to anyone alive. Uncaring and unmoving time passed but for her it seemed still, stuck in the current second of her existence where she laid in the floor looking upwards towards the clouds, silently moving forward without thinking twice, creating small shadows on the tranquil Redding skies. Time sound sounded like a ringing, an alarm clock beeping at the assigned hour hugging her brain each second that passed. Bulla slowly raised from the ground, with a feeling of tiredness embedded in her body as if she'd just woken up. The wind flew, the earth turned, and time passed for her once more. It hurt, everything hurt, it hurt like never before. It was like her cheeks had been burned by a branding iron and the legs felt like jelly about to go down the drain to never be seen again—Trembling on themselves like a building wounded to death by an earthquake. What was this? She thought grabbing her left arm in a pointless exercise she'd taken from her Father. Her hands were shaking and blood was dripping from her nose like water from a dam. What hour was it? What day it was? —what had happened? The girl tried to recall but everything was like a mist bathing an entire town on its mattress of grey darkness. Then it cleared, like clouds banishing and freeing the sun in the skies of their watery prison. Two people laid under the skies, dark of hair and eyes, filled with choice and decision.
—Are you done? or you want to get serious now?
Pan turned around, with a large smile and imitating a tiger who heard the sound of water splashing nearby as if an animal was trying to cross the river in his search for food. There, she saw him with his eyebrows curled in anger and both fists clenched like rocks grabbed by a mob to throw at the cops. Slowly, her smile grew, until it encompasses the whole face akin to a hyena who just saw a large bull getting dropped to the ground, and is currently being told that it's theirs to devour. No hippopotamus to bother them, no prideful devil in their way to annoy and give them a long speech about the importance of playing nice and being friendly —No, there wasn't anything like that here, it was just her and him. She turned around, excitement threaten to drip from her tongue like a rabid dog or an animal savoring a piece of cooked meat. The girl slowly walked away from the where the beaten girl laid like a broken statue—making her way to the other batch of the open field, where the tips of obscurely pea green trees stared at this display of violence like judging fathers watching their children fight. She stretched her elbows as she walked, carrying an evil grin like her grandfather's axe. Remembering how it all had started a week ago. How she saw him enter that building without care, brought there only to do what she was meant.
In a sudden spike, Pan shoot straight forward towards Uub, and in a second, stopped right in front. With her left arm, she sent a left hook to his face, Uub tilted his head to the left, and when Pan followed up with a right hook, he lowered his head and softly jumped back with peaceful eyes that revealed a calm unbeknownst to the half-Saiyan right beside. The girl jumped again and instead tried with a quick right hook, Uub ducked again as the air split above his long black hair that waved like waves, Pan replied with a low kick that hit air as Uub moved left, and for the first time, he blocked, when the black-haired girl hurriedly managed to turn around and fly directly to the boy in front, one charged left fist hit Uub's forearm—exploding and resounded like a bullet leaving a barrel filled with anger, but like a ship firing in anger, no damage was done, no objective was harmed, he watched attentively towards the black-haired girl with two pair of carbon eyes that barely seem to care at all. Suddenly, Pan grabbed his forearm and shoot it upwards and send a rocket of a right hook. That was it! She thought, it was loaded like a battleship's round full of rageful gunpowder and malicious intent—fired so fast sound seem to incinerate at the second of impact, everything she had, everything she felt, it was all there for him to eat, but no, it didn't happen. Like Jelly, Uub freed himself from Pan's hold, and coolly moved to the right of the missile heading his way. It was so charged Pan moved to the left on inertia, and she got a perfect spot to witness the dark-skinned boy move to her right, circling her like a dancer and stopping a few in front looking away from her, from the fight, as if he personally believed that this whole thing was beneath him, Pan stared with both eyes wide open, her mouth gazing in surprising at the event, for a moment, she seemed to doubt the existence of the whole universe, as if what just happen was a glitch in the computer system instead of the growing reality she had now started to fight in her brain. She turned around, and shook her head, this wasn't happening. She was just playing, and if she didn't start to take this seriously she was going to lose.
—Are you done? Or you want to get serious now? Those words left his mouth like a car going through an empty freeway, alone and speeding to his own personal liking without fear of possible crashes. For Pan, it was as if the car crashed against the wall at 100mph head one. Whatever ounce of self-retrain she had immediately disappeared, and she lunged itself towards Uub. Pan flew desperately towards Uub and sent a left knee towards him, Effortlessly, he walked back and dodge it. Pan turned around and left her right leg free to hit him, Uub crouched with milliseconds left and tip-toed back, and when she completed the turn, she speeded straight into the boy, deciding to hit him. The left hand hitting the ground caused the earth to shake around her like the evilest of earthquakes, ever ant, bug and tree felt it in their bones and skin. Pan knew that had the strike hit Uub, it could have easily killed him, but Pan nor him didn't seem to care. This wasn't a sparring; it was fight to the death. She wanted to hurt him, hurt him just as bad as he has done to her, if he felt at least a half of what she felt then it would be enough. One punch was all she needed, one miserable empty fist landing on his face was all she needed, it would contort and turn and it'd be all over soon. So she lunged and rush and forgot about everything she knew about fighting—she didn't care about anything, she didn't care about anything at all! All she cared was that Uub layed beaten on the ground or worse, aimlessly she tried to punch him but every fist was brutally blocked, dodged or ignored, it only made her angrier and reckless, her entire brain was telling her to calm but there was no calming her now, she was leaving worlds of space for counters but Uub wasn't taking them, he didn't seem to care. He had calm gaze and a face filled with sweat. It didn't look like he was fighting, it looked like he was doing cardio, as if he thought that the girl in front didn't even deserve to be punched in the first place. Quietly, he turned his head to the left and slightly tilted his body to look at Pan. Pan slowly got up the ground, it was cracked around a train wagon size from the impact, it seemed like a meteorite had landed instead, and she lunged again.
Pan growled in anger as Uub kept dodging, right, left, he moved like a leaf in the air, every fist and kick was avoided with the ease a cat has when he jumps. With great care, and perfectly executed in every way. The girl soon ditched the martial arts and flew towards him, Uub, with the grace of a bird, jumped over her and landed behind. Pan tried to go for the leg, only for Uub to jump over her again, the half-Saiyan proceeded to eat dirt, as the boy put distance between the two. With great hurry, she created two weak energy balls and sent them two Uub one after the other. Both exploded nearby, blowing a truck-sized wave of dust that forced the boy to close his eyes, and from the right side of the dust, Pan appeared and lunged herself forward towards him again, and just like previously, she ate dirt with ease.
The black haired girl slowly got up, her whole body was filled with dirt and sweat, as if she had taken a dip into a mud and soaked herself in a long and relaxing bath with the crocodiles and toads. Pan mind was filled with a sense of dread and hopelessness, she felt weak, angry, tired, confused. She didn't know what to do, this had never happened to her before, no one has dared to just doge, usually when she lost they'd beaten her to a pulp, that was the rule, what was common, this felt horrible, agonizing. It was like he didn't even think she was worthy enough to punch. Just a stupid girl playing fighting games. That realization created a hurricane of energy in her veins, an army of rageful knights, it was up to that point the worst realization she'd ever had, and so she made a choice. He was going to die, right here and now. To hell with everything.
Pan roared and screamed, her throat chirred as her KI raised fast like a rocket going straight into the clouds. Energy flew from the veins and as she raised both hands over her head and the waves of crashing energy rushed towards the palms the boy quietly turned around. The sphere grew from a particle to a soccer ball and kept on growing like a balloon about to burst. She put everything she had in it, every squishable ounce of energy she gathered all with the same malicious intent that had ever existed inside of her, this had to be it—and slowly Uub put both hands on the back of his head in preparation, his eyes shined like a man ready to fight god—. Pan couldn't believe her eyes, was he insane—He wanted to bat it? No it couldn't be, not with this much energy, she could blow up a mount with this! So if he wanted to die, then that was that. She shoots it off her mind, and in a second, she released the attack.
—Masenko!
An inhuman roar shook the area a mile wide, and from the ground a blue light colored every tree and cloud and building, the world blinked to the cyan sun from below, and from it blue wave of light moved forward at full speed straight towards him. Large like a truck and with so much power the ground beneath turned into fire and carbon. It dwarfed Uub, it dwarfed her, and it dwarfed houses and castles it could so easily disappear, but Uub never moved, never wavered, he seemed always sure of what he was doing, and when the blast seemed to hit, he waved down his hands and roared like a monstrous man, and sent it flying away back towards the air. The attack listed upwards like a sinking ship, and like a home run it went straight into the sky. For a moment, the dust and rocks of the attack resounded victorious, landing softly in the ground with their whirling sound, then a light appeared on the skies, a ray of light that outshined the sun for a second—burning like molting lava and expanding to all sides like a dam breaking apparat, with enough energy to cause a city to be clean from an entire ecosystem.
Pan fell on the floor filled with sweat, she waved back and forth like a boat in a storm and she knew she was at the edge of shutting down. Uub was impeccable, not even dirt was him, only sweat but it just seemed he went on the treadmill instead of fighting for his life, but it wasn't a fight for him, it was a dance, and he was the best dancer in town. And her just a loser not even worthy of being knocked out.
