Ficool

Chapter 43 - Chapter 43

When the spheres dug in, Kana gave another, careless grunt and blasted her shield outwards, sending the spheres scattering through the sky. Piccolo, Vegeta and everyone else had to avoid the onslaught of blasts when they shot past them, flew outside the city, and bombarded the countryside like meteors. Dome shaped explosions lit up the lands surrounding the metropolis and shook the entire nation, causing the people on the ground to brace themselves against the tremendous earthquake.

"That's it!" Vegeta shouted, powering up and charging forward with a yell. "YOU'RE MINE, KANA!"

Gohan's eyes widened in alarm. "VEGETA! WAIT!"

Arcing through the air, the Saiyan Prince flew straight at Kana from the front, the girl smiling when the man greeted her with a swinging jab. The punch crashed into her shoulder when she turned to parry it, her arms remaining crossed over her chest while the man began assaulting her with a lightning fast flurry of attacks. Punches and kicks shot through the air and rained down like artillery rounds on the celestial warrior, the sound of multiple gunshots ringing out with every impact. However, when it seemed like Vegeta was actually landing hits, in reality his opponent was simply slipping them and blocking them with her shoulders, smiling all the while as she retreated at a casual pace and parried each blow in turn.

When Vegeta ended with a kick that crashed into her shoulder with a loud 'bang', a complete unfazed Kana decided she'd had enough of blocking and decided to attack.

The retaliation came in a blur of motion. With a shout she threw a roundhouse kick that crashed across the man's face, sending spit flying from his mouth as well as a shout of pain. The girl then floated forward, slammed another kick into the man's stomach, before hovering over him and dropping a knee into his spine. Cries of agony escaping the prince's lungs, Kana then finished up with a sweeping kick straight up into his head, a finisher that generated a thunderclap and sent Vegeta flying over the city and into a distant hillside, where he crashed in a cloud of rubble and dust.

Wincing after seeing the Saiyan Prince pretty much get his ass handed to him, Zangya turned back to glare up at the sky.

As shocking as the battle was turning out to be so far, the orange haired woman couldn't help but wonder to herself.

"Well… I have options. I could just sit here and watch the super friends get their butts toasted by this overpowered freak of nature," the Hera-seijin girl thought before her eyes focused on Gohan flying high above. "Or I can step in, help them out… and then bugger that brat over why he spared my life." The group had pretty much let her live on this planet following the whole Bojack incident. In the month Zangya had already spent here, she'd actually grown to like this place, even if she was impartial to what these idiots did in their off time. This was the perfect opportunity for her to return the favor and get in good with the group.

She remembered all too well what'd happened when her previous team went up against these guys. Things just spiraled into chaos in the span of one afternoon.

However, as much as she wanted to jump in and give them some assistance, this person that they were up against was in a whole other league of trouble. She didn't need extra-sensory abilities to figure that out. So, for the time being, Zangya decided to stand back and see how this whole thing played out.

If she was lucky, she wouldn't have to step in.

Smirking in the direction of the fallen Saiyan Prince, Kana then turned to see Gohan appear in front of her and slam a left hook across her face with earth splitting force. Managing to smack her head to the side with a loud 'crack', the boy pressed home his advantage and, with a yell, smashed two more hooks across her face, stunning the invader.

Actually feeling the attacks yet keeping her arms crossed, Kana gritted her teeth and, blocking another of his punches with her knee, shot forward and head butted him in the face. The blow crashed into the half-Saiyan and sent him flying backwards, where he was then promptly replaced by Trunks flying in with a punch.

Effortlessly leaping over the young warrior in mid-swing, Kana slammed a kick across his face and sent the time traveler rocketing backwards, trailing blood.

While he was flying, Mirai threw his hands forward and began an erratic series of arm movements. Upon which he then crossed them over and threw them forward so that the thumbs and index fingers touched, forming a diamond shape. "Burning Attack!" Fingers splayed, the half-Saiyan launched a ball of golden energy straight at the girl, which shot through the air at an alarming speed.

Kana though, wasn't deterred. Without so much as a blink, the girl threw her hair forward and caught the energy sphere, holding it for a moment before spinning and pitching it behind her. The attack ended up slamming into Piccolo attempting to strike her from behind, detonating against his chest with concussive force. The Namekian yelled as he was sent flying out of the blast radius, heavily burnt and trailing smoke.

Yelling out, Gohan came powering towards the girl with a wide hook, attempting to hit her in the back of the head. Kana ducked the blow, allowing the demi-Saiyan to pass overhead before throwing her hair up and wrapping it around his head and eyes. Stopping him in his flight and shutting down his aura, the young Saiyan gave a yelp of surprise as he was forcefully pulled around before having a roundhouse kick unloaded in his face, sending him spinning away. After dispersing of him, Kana spun around and kicked an approaching Trunks in the chest, before then spinning in the air and kneeing an incoming Piccolo in the cranium.

Shockwaves rang out from every hit that connected, the power of each blow rattling the Z-fighters' and effectively destroying all attempts to bring down their opponent. Eventually, the onslaught of unsuccessful attacks soon stopped and the group of powerful Z-fighters ended up floating around the completely undamaged Kana, bruised, bleeding from their faces and looking beaten all to hell.

Even Vegeta, who'd managed to pick himself out of the ditch he'd made, was covered in dirt and bruises.

"I admire your spirit. You four certainly have the strength and skill to give some of the most powerful beings in the universe a lot of trouble. But as good as you are, it'll take a lot more than skill and effort to bring someone like me down," Kana informed, keeping her arms crossed before allowing a cheerful grin to form on her face. "Since you've been throwing such fancy attacks my way, I think I'll throw one back at you. Try this on for size…" She then vanished in a golden flash, disappearing completely from the battered group's radar before reappearing a couple kilometers away. Once there, the girl then performed a graceful twirl, ascending higher into the sky while her hair whipped around her like a streamer. Then, with her hair's glow intensifying, she performed one last spin and hurled her attack. "Flash Storm!"

From her hair, the girl unleashed a barrage of small energy spheres numbering in the millions, straight down at her targets positioned far below. The attack flew at them like a wall of machinegun fire, alarming the group of Z-fighters and forcing them to evade. Moving erratically through the air in different directions, Vegeta, Trunks and Piccolo avoided the hail of countless, tiny spheres as best as they could, unable to counter due to the spread and quantity of blasts being hurled their way.

Gohan, ducking and slipping between waves of incapacitating shots, looked in the direction the attacks were going, feeling immediate concern for the safety of the city far below. The young Saiyan saw through his peripheral vision the millions of blasts curve through the air, overshoot the city on all sides, and end up peppering the landscape outside of the metropolis. Relieved that their opponent was aiming her attacks away from the people, the boy could then completely concentrate on evading the rain of death.

Far below, the population of Satan City gazed in awe as the sky lit up with a golden hail of energy, which flew overhead like a meteor shower, only a thousand times more beautiful and at a much closer proximity to their planet.

Zangya and Videl both stared in shock at the sheer amount of attacks that'd been thrown, while Krillin, still cradling the heavily injured Android 18# on the ground, watched the terrifying sight closely with wide eyes.

The short man clenched his jaw tightly, wondering how his friends were going to combat such a powerful adversary. "Come on Gohan, Trunks, Piccolo… hang in there…" Knowing he was completely outclassed in this battle, there was nothing he could do except wait it out and hope for the best.

Managing to get above the storm as the attack faded, Gohan and Piccolo powered up and shot towards Kana's position at full speed. Rocketing towards her like missiles, the pair came alongside one another so that they were within earshot.

"Piccolo! We have to hit her with a combined attack from both sides!" Gohan shouted, eliciting a nod from the man.

"Yeah! You hit her high, I'll hit her low!"

They then broke up, flying up to spots around the girl at a distance.

Kana, passive as ever, remained in place, watching with a curious smile as the two warriors split up and began charging their next attacks. Wanting to see what they were planning to do, she decided to just float there and observe as their strategy unfolded.

"Eat this!" Piccolo bellowed, fanning his hands over his forehead and throwing it back. "MAKOSEN-HA!" He then threw his hands forward and unleashed a powerful, orange blast that rocketed towards the girl from behind, while Gohan took her from above.

Cranking back his right hand, Gohan's aura exploded around him before he unleashed his own move, "KA-ME-HA-ME-HAAAA!" A powerful blue blast exploded from his hand and flew down at his target like a small comet.

The two simultaneous blasts slammed into the girl from two sides and sandwiched her in between, the users continuing to feed energy into their attacks while she floated there, taking their best shots to the body. The attacks colliding against her lithe form generated a blinding light that filled the entire sky, letting everyone in the area know that something big was going on.

While Gohan and Piccolo kept her cornered, Vegeta and Trunks joined them, the former taking the side with his hands held out while the other took the fourth corner.

Slamming his hands together, the time-traveling warrior powered up and with a roar, unleashed a golden beam of energy that streaked towards their target. "BUSTER CANNON!"

"GALLICK GUN!" Vegeta roared seconds later, throwing his hands forward and unleashing a purple blast that rocketed to the center.

The two beams connected with the others, joining the other two and beginning to smother their target from all around. The flaring light increased tenfold and the trembling in the earth magnified as well. With the sound of thunder breaking out across the skies, the four-way blast continued to grind into the single target for a full, glorious minute until the warriors poured everything they had into one final spurt and sent it in all at once. The extra power flew down the beams to the middle, where they met with a volatile result.

A nuke went off several kilometers above Satan City in the form of a ringed explosion that traveled outwards, blinding everyone with a white light and shaking the earth under the force. People in the streets cried out in terror as another earthquake hit them, whereas Videl, Zangya and Krillin watched and waited for the blast to fade.

All of that power put together into a single, intersecting shot. They must have done something with it!
