Pan flew through the air and smashed a fist into the stunned Tato's face, sending him flying back. "I"LL KILL YOU!"
Tato recovered and righted himself. "What the hell is this? She looked almost nothing like a Saiyan!"
Pan flew at him again, smashing her fists against his defenses over and over again. Tato flinched at the impact, barely managing to keep pace and block Pan's rampage.
Pan flew back all of the sudden and cupped her hands to her side. "Kaaaaa..."
Tato frowned for a moment before a smirk crossed his face. "Oh, I get it. You, your a hybrid!"
"Meeeeee," Pan continued.
Tato was scornful. "Pathetic, to see Saiyan blood tainted with a humans. I'm surprised you can even go Super Saiyan."
"Haaaaa," Pan continued.
Tato beat a fist into his chest. "Alright you hybrid mongrel, show me what you've got."
"Meeeee," Pan continued.
Tato sneered at her.
"HAAAAA!" Pan screamed, unleashed the Kamehameha wave and then instantly flew aside it afterword.
"Stupid! As if I'd let that hit me!" said Tato, moving aside.
Pan surged forward at him, overtaking her Kamehameha wave. Before he could react, she flew behind him and kicked him back towards the wave.
BOOOM!
The Kamehameha wave impacted and exploded. When the dust settled, Tato was still there, minus a lot of shoulder armor and a bit of blood running down his arm.
Pan sneered at him and rushed forward, throwing a heavy fist forward. She was surprised when her fist passed through him and his body faded.
WHAM!
Tato appeared and slammed an elbow into Pan's back and knocked her to the ground. Pan impacted on the ground, rolled and sprung to her feet, snarling in rage. She threw herself at him again, swinging a heavy blow.
GRAB!
Tato grabbed her wrist, struggling to hold it back. Pan threw her other fist forward, and he caught that as well. The air around them began to crackle with power. Their auras merged and expanded as they struggled against one another. The ground below them began to buckle and crack, pebbles, dirt, and rock levitating up into the air.
"HAAAAAA!" they both yelled, furiously tapping into their power to try and overpower the other.
Tato brought his legs up to his chest then kicked out, slamming them into Pan's stomach and sending her flying away. Pan recovered and floated there, glaring death at the other Super Saiyan. They floated, at a standoff, before they both vanished into thin air.
WHAM BOOM!
The two of them reappeared and clashed against one another over and over again. Tato was stronger, but Pan was smaller and faster, making her hard to hit. Pan ducked under a swing then rushed up, smashing a knee into his chin and exposing his throat. She curled a fist and throat punched him as hard as she could. Tato gagged and flew backwards. Pan threw herself at him, punching and kicking as furiously as she could. Tato took a few hits before he smashed a fist into her face, launching Pan back.
Pan floated backwards, wincing, before she recovered and spit blood to her side, reaching a hand up wipe her mouth off. Tato smirked at her and waved her forward, beckoning. Pan grinned deviously and held a hand out to herself. Tato watched cautiously as a thin disk of energy formed in her hand, razer sharp. He tensed, ready to dodge, but rather than throw it at him, Pan gave a warcry and charge him, still levitating the disk in her hand.
Tato threw himself back as Pan swung the destructo disk like a weapon, slicing open a bit of his armor but missing skin. She snarled and threw herself forward, swinging the disk again and again. Tato glared at her but did not fight back, doing his best to keep his distance. Finally, Pan threw the disk and then disappeared, moving as fast as she could to get behind him and kick him towards the disk.
Pan's foot went through him, an afterimage. She gave a startled yelp as he appeared behind her and shoved her towards the disk. Pan's eyes went wide before she twisted her body backwards and swung her foot up, kicking the flat part of the disk up into the air. Tato barely dodged being beheaded and then aimed a hand, unleashing a burst of ki that hit and destroyed the disk.
He waged a finger at her. "Nice try, but did you really think such an amateurish trick would-"
"MASENKO-HA!" Pan screamed, blasting him mid speech.
Tato flew back at the impact, his chest armor singed and battered. "You little brat!"
He surged forward and slammed a knee into Pan's stomach and backhanded her towards the ground. Pan hit and skidded along painfully. Tato flew down at her, cocking a fist to deliver a devastating blow.
Pan brought two fingers to both sides of her forehead. "SOLAR FLARE!"
Blinding light shone out. "GAAAAH! What the hell?!"
Pan flipped herself upright and cried out, "DESTRUCTO DISK!"
Pan launched it at the oncoming blinded fighter, watching eagerly. At the last second, Tato swerved to the side, but not quite fast enough to dodge it completely.
SLICE
The destructo disk slice into the right side of his body about an inch from the side. Tato gave a startled yelp and brought a hand up to cover the wound. Pan needed no invitation and launched herself at him, headbutting his stomach, Tato doubled over, and Pan let into him with everything she had, punching and kicking freely and unblocked. Finally, she two-handed smashed him to the ground and cupped her hands to her side.
"KAMEHAMEHAAAAA!" She roared, unleashing the wave towards the down fighter.
In one smooth motion, Tato rose to his feet, gave a roar, and drove a right fist into the energy wave, sending it flying away from him and into the distance. Pan floated there, staring down at him silently as the explosion of the landing blast send wind and dust flying everywhere. Tato glared at her, breathing in and out rapidly and heavily for a moment before he recovered. He held up a hand, aiming it towards her, ki ready. Rather than fire it, he instead brought it down to the cut in his side.
sizzle
Tato grimaced, cauterizing the wound. "Hmph. If this is all you can do girl, I'm sorely disappointed."
All Pan did to reply was grin at him wildly.
He scoffed. "Look at you, completely lost in the transformation like a novice. I'm surprised you can even strategize in such a state. What a waste of Saiyan blood and-."
The Pan in the air faded away, an afterimage, before the real Pan reappeared and booted the back of Tato's head and knocking him to the ground. Tato rolled and pressed his hands against the ground, launching himself into the air. He rubbed the back of his head, scowling. Pan stood there, smirking at him.
"Oh, you think you're cute, don't you?" spat Tato.
Pan's spoke through clenched teeth for the first time since her snarling death threat aside from technique names. "Mom... always said... I was... adorable..."
"Hah, so she can speak!" said Tato with a laugh, "And she can talk back too!"
He clapped his hands together and mocked. "Bravo."
Pan rushed him, swinging high. Tato blocked her attack and countered with a gut punch. Pan placed a palm on his upcoming swing, grabbed his hand, and pulled herself up, vaulting over and behind him.
"MASENKO-HA!" She shouted, blasting his backside.
Tato staggered a bit before turning to face her. "Your attacks sting at best."
He burst forward and drove a knee into her stomach. Pan's eyes bulged and a bit of blood spilled out of her mouth. Tato grabbed her head, and slammed his own into her nose. Pan gave a cry of surprise and pain before he kicked her back and to the ground.
Pan seethed, enraged at the blood gushing out of her nose. Tato aimed two fingers at her before slowly bringing them up and then snapping them towards the sky. The ground beneath Pan bucked and exploded, a burst of ki strong enough to obliterate a city rushed into the air.
Pan was launched into the sky, her gi burned and tarnished, scorch marks on her face and arms. Tato was on her before she could recover, punching her again and again. Pan cringed at every blow before he kicked her back. She floated in the air, shuddering in pain before he rushed her and wrapped his arms around her in a crushing bear hug.
Pan screamed as he began to squeeze.
"What's the matter brat?" Tato taunted, "Is it to TIGHT for you?"
Pan screamed again as he began to squeeze harder. He threw back his head and laughed. In that one moment, Pan eyed his exposed neck and lunged forward, biting down hard and deep. Tato was the one screaming then, letting Pan go and trying to pull her off. He punched her head once, twice, and a third time before she finally let go, her face starting to swell a little bit.
WHAM!
Tato hit her in a fury and knocked her to the ground. "Biting? You little cowardly wretch!"
Pan hit the ground hard, laying there, breathing in and out heavily, slowly, she sat up, rubbing her face. She grinned menacingly, spitting his blood out of her mouth, eyeing the steady stream of it flowing down his neck. She rose to her feet and launched herself at him again. Once more they engaged in a flurry of blows, blocks, dodges, and counter attacks.
Tato swung towards her face, Pan pushed the attack up with an arm, having it graze her forehead instead, and lashed out with her other fist. She slammed it into the gash her teeth had made on his neck, causing him to howl in pain and smash her away from him.
"What the hell is taking you so long? Finish the brat and be done with it!" a voice called down.
Both Pan and Tato's head's turned, eying one of the Super Saiyan's floating a ways behind Odianna.
Odianna...
The moment Pan's eyes met Odianna's cold, hateful ones, her rage broke. Pan blinked a few times, a chill running down her spine. She shook her head, fully regaining control of herself. She took in a breath, slowly letting it out. She faced Tato and adopted her Grandpa's fighting stance for the first time in a long time. She had to end this, no longer being blinded by rage, she could feel just how exhausted and beaten her body was. If this went on to much longer, she'd probably lose.
Tato raised an eyebrow. "Well now, looks like someone's finally tamed the beast within. It's about time, its unbecoming of a Saiyan to be controlled by their base instincts. You were like a third class trash Great Ape, it was disgusting to watch."
Pan ignored his taunting. She was a little pissed at herself for losing control, she had taken far to many hits than she should have. But... she understood it. Aideen's death had pushed her over the edge. The mere thought of her dead friend was enraging, but...
Pan looked down at her hands, her yellow, glowing, Super Saiyan hands. She had to do it, she had to have turned to their power to match them. She felt disgusted with herself, but, whats done was done. She'd do what she had to do to end this and avenge Aideen, and the people of Haven.
Pan pushed off the ground and flew at Tato, engaging him in a more controlled form. Tato was caught offguard by her sudden shift in style, blocking poorly, and took an elbow to his wounded neck. He gave a snarl of fury and grabbed for her arm. Pan swung her other hand and that was caught as well. Tato began to tighten his grip, trying to crush her hands.
Pan winced momentarily before she had an idea. "Kaaaaa-meeee-haaaaa-meeee..."
Tato's eyes went wide and he forced Pan's hands to point away from him.
Pan grinned, pulling her knees up to her chest, and then driving her feet into his chest. "HAAAAAA!"
The Kamehameha wave erupted from her feet and blasted him point blank. Tato screamed in agony, being carried back and engulfed by the energy wave. Pan watched him go, a grin on her face. He sure didn't predict the Kamehameha wave could be launch from other parts of her body. Hee hee...
BOOM!
The energy wave exploded all of the sudden. Pan frowned, sighting Tato still alive, his armor cracked, scorched marks all over his body. Damn, this guy was tough. His power had dropped a bit after tanking that wave, and was slowly fading due to exhaustion and maybe blood loss. His neck, Pan eyed it, it was still leaking blood. Had she nicked an artery with that bite of hers? Or just bit really really deep? Either way, his power was slowly draining.
Though, its not like hers wasn't as well. She had no experience or training with the Super Saiyan transformation. Unless she both kept on him, and avoided taking damage, she'd lose power just as fast if not fast. Pan eyed him as he slowly closed the distance, wondering if she should try to go in for the kill and outright end it or attempt to slowly whittle him down. Either method had some risks.
Tato studied her. "You know, it'd be such a waste."
Pan frowned. "What?"
"I've been thinking, and I question, do you even know what you are?" asked Tato.
Pan didn't respond, and instead took a defensive stance, wondering if he was trying to distract her or something.
"You, little girl, are the youngest Super Saiyan I have ever seen or heard of. Your power at your age, for your first time going Super Saiyan, is unparalleled in the entire universe," he complimented.
The hell was he trying to pull? She wasn't like Vegeta with his crazy pride, she wasn't going to let him pull a fast one or try some crazy scheme. 'Sides, Goten and Trunks had been younger when they had achieved Super Saiyan.
"It would be such a waste for your life to be snuffed out here," lamented Tato, "So why don't you join us?"
Pan glared at him. "Never."
"Do you even know what it's like little gir-, what its like, Pan? To be a true Saiyan?" he asked.
"If by a true Saiyan, you mean a heartless murderer, then no, I don't," she jabbed.
"You're letting your human side cloud your judgement, you could be so much more," he argued.
"The only thing I want to be is your end," she spat.
He slowly shook his head. "What a waste. Though, I'm curious. I can't help but wonder, is it just you, or could another hybrid show such power? It almost makes me regret killing that woman, I could have forced her to spawn some offspring to test that theory."
Pan's eyes went wide with outrage, her entire body shaking with fury. "YOU! SICK! BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU THINK OF DOING THAT TO HER!"
"AHHHHHHHHH!" Pan roared with rage, her entire body, her aura, pulsating with a new found power dawn from her fury.
She exploded forward at blazing speed and drove her fist deep into his stomach. Tato's eyes bulged, blood surging out of his mouth. Pan slammed a fist into his chest, sending him flying far off into the distance.
"This ends! NOW!" she shouted.
Pan threw her hands out to her side, gathering power. She brought her hands up and fired the ki into the air without pause. She gave a war cry and surged towards the ground. She landed on a knee, brought her palms to the ground, and shouted her attack at the top of her lungs.
"JUDGEMENT!"
The energy parted the heavens and crashed down upon Tato off in the distance. It hit him, brought him to the ground, and...
BOOOM!
The explosion was massive. It shock-waves through the air and made the ground buckle and rippled. Even at this distance, dirt and debris was sent flying everywhere. Pan watched the explosion fade away in the distance, feeling Tato's power level fade away. She was still shaking in fury and disgust. Slowly, she breathed in an out, calming herself. It was over, Aideen, Aneurin, and the people of Haven had been avenged.
No wait, it wasn't over...
Pan turned, glancing up at Odianna and the three Super Saiyans. She was rather surprised to see they had stood still and watched the entire fight. Pan tried to size them up and immediately regretted it. How in the world had she not been felt their power just sitting up there? It was ignoring the three huge elephants in the room. They dwarfed Tato's power by leaps and bounds.
They were in a triangle formation, two Super Saiyans, one male, one female floating below a third male Super Saiyan. The two bottom ones were a little roughed up, but, not showing signs of exhaustion. They seemed to comfortably rest in their Super Saiyan state, as if it were natural to them. A bead of sweet rolled down Pan's forehead, they were mastered Super Saiyans. The top middle one though... he was...
Pan frowned. While not close to as strong as them, he felt like Grandpa and Vegeta did when they were holding back and sparring Goten and Trunks as Super Saiyans. He was much stronger than the two mastered ones. Pan gulped, feeling a surge of fear. He... was a Super Saiyan 2, Pan felt sure of it. Two mastered Super Saiyans and a Super Saiyan 2...
The middle one crossed his arms. "If were done watching the trash fight, how about we finish this, human? After all, you are the entire reason I came here."
Odianna turned to look at him, her voice cold. "Am I? I hope you are satisfied with what you found, I'll be the last thing you'll ever see you filthy Saiyan Scum!"
He grinned at her. "Satisfied? Hardly. I watched you slaughter a few pathetic low class Super Saiyans. I've been testing you this entire time, and I haven't seen it yet. Where is it? Where is the power you are hiding?"
Odianna narrowed her eyes, but said nothing.
"Tales are told of the world of Terra, the greatest challenge for the Saiyan race! The rebirth place of the Super Saiyan, the place where the first Ascended Super Saiyan rose to existence. Home to a power that could challenge the pinnacle of the Saiyan race! I have come to conquer that challenge, and prove myself the greatest Saiyan who has ever lived!" he continued.
"So show me," he finished, a bolt of blue lightning cackling along his body, "Show me your true power."
WOOSH!
His aura exploded, his hair spiking up more than it was, lightning crackling along his body. Pan shivered, she had been right.
"Hmph, an Ascended Super Saiyan, why am I not surprised?" muttered Odianna, "Though, you're so pitiful I wonder if I could beat you with the regular Kaio-Ken."
Pan frowned, there was something about the way she said the world, regular, that confused her. She couldn't possibly be talking about just a double Kaio-Ken...
"You can't possibly have challenged an Ascended Super Saiyan with your pitiful Kaio-Ken technique," said the Super Saiyan 2, "It's fire can't match this power!"
Odianna smirked at him, a wicked smile crossing her face. "It's funny in a way, that you mention fire."
"Enough! Stop stalling! SHOW IT TO ME!" the Super Saiyan 2 demanded, "Show me the power that can challenge an Ascended Super Saiyan!"
"As you wish," said Odianna, her body tensing.
"Haaaaaaaa!" Odianna began to scream in fury.
The veins on her neck, her forehead, everywhere that Pan could see began to bulge. The end wisps of her fiery red Kaio-Ken aura began to turn blue, like a flame burning far hotter. Pan began to feel sick as Odianna's ki began to warp in a way that turned Pan's stomach. Someones ki... someones ki shouldn't be able to twist like this! It wasn't right, it wasn't natural! Odianna's skin began to ripple, as if it were trying to tear itself apart. Red energy pulsated from her, slowly turning blue. Pan winced and brought an arm up, trying to shield herself from the extreme heat Odianna was emitting.
With a final cry, her Kaio-Ken aura turned completely blue and began to pulse wildly, "HYPER KAIO-KEN TIMES FIFTY!"
WOOOOOOOOSH!
Pan fell to a knee as Odianna's aura exploded in size, sending blue fire shooting everywhere. Pan looked at her, shocked beyond belief. Slowly, the woman's aura began to compact around her, the unnatural rippling in her skin stopped, her veins no longer bulging. For a brief moment, Pan wondered if her blue energy was like that of a Super Saiyan Blue, of a god. No, she could feel Odianna's Ki. And... her ki... her ki still gave off a sickening feeling. Pan finally understood why Aideen had been so uncomfortable even alluding to Odianna's secret technique, the presence she gave off now was awful.
Hyper... Hyper Kaio-Ken? What in the world was this? Pan carefully felt with her senses. The way Odianna's body was emitting energy was different. It wasn't the same way the normal Kaio-Ken used energy, a change of how the technique functionally worked. It felt unstable. If she wasn't immortal, Pan felt that Odianna would have died instantly the moment she tried this technique.
But she was immortal, and her technique held. Its power... its power was insane. It multiplied her power so far above what the normal Kaio-Ken gave her. It wasn't comparable in the slightest. Pan couldn't wrap her mind around what she felt, not that she could do that with the Super Saiayn 2 either. She wasn't able to properly compare them, and had no clue who was stronger. Still, she couldn't let her fight alone, even if she could just buy Odianna a few seconds, it would be worth it.
Pan flew up and levitated a bit below her. "I'll try to hold off the other two Super Saiyans while you fight the Ascended one."
Odianna turned her head and snarled at her, "You lying, deceiving Saiyan wretch!"
Pan looked up at her, startled, "What?"
WHAM!
Odianna hit Pan with a two-handed overhead smash against her shoulder and sent her rocketing to the ground, leaving a huge crater. Pan's Super Saiyan aura faded instantly, and she lost any sense of her power, she laid there, stunned, and her body wracked in agony. Never before, never before had Pan felt such physical pain. As she laid there, she realized, to Odianna, she was now just another enemy to kill, another piece of Saiyan trash, and that pain in her heart, was the worst feeling Pan had ever felt in her life.
"No Saiyan! NO SAIYAN, is leaving here alive!" yelled Odianna.
Pan trembled in fear. For a brief moment, when Odianna had hit her, the true depths of her power had been made known to her. With those vengeful words, Pan let out a terrified sob, tears streaming down her face. She was going to die here. She was going to die and never see her family again.
Odianna disappeared and reappeared infront of one of the mastered Super Saiyans, driving a hand through his throat, killing him. The Super Saiyan fell out of the air as Odianna disappeared again and felled the other one, swinging her arm like a blade and cutting deep into the back of the second, female Super Saiyan. Her aura fell as did her body. Odianna grinned wickedly at the Super Saiyan 2 who was watching her warily.
They both disappeared and began fighting at speeds Pan couldn't follow. She could however feel the shock-waves they were emitting, and each pulse pushed against Pan, causing her to cry in pain and fear. Finally, the two of them reappeared, Odianna looked smug, the Super Saiyan 2 looked enraged.
"You think you can match me!?" roared the Super Saiyan 2, "I AM BEYOND you! My power is far above anything you can possibly conceive!"
"That so?" said Odianna, "Go ahead then, show me what you've got. I'll give you one free hit, go ahead."
"You dare? You DARE mock me!?" roared the Super Saiyan 2.
The Super Saiyan 2 surged forward and swung at Odianna. She did exactly as she said she would and stood still. The Super Saiyan 2 hit her and drove his fist, and arm, through her chest, elbow deep. The Super Saiyan 2 was shocked, surprised when she merely grunted in pain and grinned at him.
"You fool, you had no idea what you were getting yourself into. You should never have come here." she spat.
She leaned forward, driving his arm deeper into her body. "Here's a little secret, you Saiyan trash, I'm immortal."
She grabbed the arm penetrating her body, raised her other hand high into the air, coating it with energy, and brought it down, severing the Super Saiyan 2's arm. He flew backwards, screaming in agony. Odianna rushed him, grabbed his chin in one hand, the top of his hand with the other.
"You wana know something before you die? You're not even the strongest Ascended Super Saiyan I've fought," she said, taunting him one last time.
SNAP!
Odianna wrenched his head, twisting it and snapping his neck. The Super Saiyan 2 aura faded, his body going limp, his ki snuffing out. Odianna kicked his body down, pulled the man's arm out of her, and tossed it onto his body before obliterating it with a ki blast. She stood there, silently marveling her work. Slowly, she turned her head and body, turning to look at Pan.
Pan's terror surged, her fear rising higher than it ever had been before. "O-odiana... I'm... sorry..."
Odianna rushed at her, pulling back an arm, raising a fist to deliver a blow that would end Pans life. In that moment, Pan's fear hit a pinnacle, almost as if in response, a strange green glow surrounded her. In the split second before Odianna could hit and kill her, Pan disappeared in a flash of green light, vanishing without a trace...
