The 21st Tenkaichi Budokai III: Approaching the Climax!! The Final Matches To Decide The World's Strongest

[And so the fighters were allowed their rest, and as the food was prepared the likes of Rota (But you're not still in the tournament!), Johnathan, and Jewel were able to step out of the infirmary to eat as well...]
[Totaling Arashi, Rika, Johnathan, Rota, Krillin, Jewel, Son Gohan, Rose, and Abra...]
[...]
A meeting between the final eight fighters of the tournament...
[Some who would go on to fight each other in the second round were currently sitting besides each other...]
The tension.....
[Abra and Arashi are sitting besides each other]
Arashi "HA! HA! GET READY TO BARF CUZ I'VE NEVER LOST TO ANYONE. . . . cough besides mom." cough
"LETS DO THIS!"
Arashi: "Ha ha!! Get ready to bard cause i've never lost to anyone!!!" [Cough] "Besides mom..." [Cough]
"Let's do this!!"
Rota:
[Per Rose's suggestion, Rota was getting his rest...]
[Though his acute sense of smell had lead him here...]
---
[Rika looks the table over curiously, calmly eating a cookie...]
[Sweets are for afterwards, Rika!!]
---
[Meanwhile Jewel eyes a form of food she'd never seen before...]
[After seeing others try a few slices...she gave it a go for herself...]
---
[Krillin...Well he was not used to this sort of treatment, at Orin Temple or Kame House, and he was eating it up...]
[...Literally...]
[Arashi glances at the monk enjoying his meal.]
[Flashbacks of the earlier incident and the rather large bum shaped crater quickly come to mind....]
[Arashi takes a fork and points it at Krillin.]
Arashi:" Better enjoy munch that meal crunch Krillin. I still oh ya for slurp launching that ladies butt at my face!"
[Rota's nose bubble bursts and he awakes.]
Rota: [Still eating subconsciously] "How'd I get here?"
Arashi "Probably sleep eating urges."
Rota: "Well, better to eat than to be eaten."
[While the statement seemed random, it causes Arashi to flashback to his own wounded dining on T-Rex]
"...yeah, you said it man."
"Oh yeah! Been meaning to ask. Is that tail real?"
Rota: [holding up his food] "No, its a wing."
Arashi: "Very funny."
[Grabs a drumstick with his tail.]
"Can ya at least do this?"
[Rota lifts a cup with his tail and drinks from it.]
Rota: "Do what?"
Rika: [Looks over at Arashi]
"Ohh, Rota, he has a tail just like..."
Jewel: [Over hears only this] 0_0
[starts to gag on pizza for a moment]
Rika: "You do..." [Rota]
Jewel: [Coughs up..]
Rika: [Turns] "...?"
Rota: "Oh, I didn't think anyone else had one."
Rota: "Or, any other humans I guess..."
[Eyes widen as he remembers a particularly important piece of information]
Arashi ("Oh right...blind.")
[Clears throat]
"Can't say I wasn't thinking the same thing. Welp! Looks like we're tail bros Rota!"
[Suddenly raises his tail for some sort of 'high five']
"Pleasure to finally chill out and say nice to meet ya !"
[Rota raises his tail in a similar manner]
Rota: "Likewise."

[Jewel watches as the above takes place, hastily trying to wipe the look of terror that had been on her face a moment ago]
Jewel: ("Humans... with tails? I can't believe I didn't see it before during their fights!")
("But I've never heard of this before... yet, here they are, two such beings in front of me.")
Rika: [Munches on another cookie...]
[Looks at Arashi]
"Do you hate your tail getting grabbed as much as Rota?"
[Casually announcing weakness]
[Arashi at first raises an eye brow. Didn't take long to pick up on what she meant.]
Arashi "Yeah. Really ticks me off when people do that. My mom's even more testy about it."
Rota: "Dad would grab it all the time, said if I could get used to a punch I could get used to getting my tail grabbed."
Rika: "Hm, he'll be so happy when you finally do then."
Rota: [sweat drop]
Arashi: [Thinking] ("What the heck?! Why'd they have to bring that up out of no where?! I thought we were cool!")
Jewel: ("...I too get testy when my tail gets grabbed...")
("But... for them it sounds... Painful?")
---
[Meanwhile, Son Gohan had his mask lifted up, only revealing his mouth, and was downing a drink...]
[After he finishes, he waves the container upside down in disappointment]
"More sake!!"
Attendant: "Sir, you'll have your next match..."
Son Gohan: "I'm fighting last, I'll be sobered up by then!!"
Attendant: "What about some tea, sir?"
Son Gohan: [Cringes at the thought]
---
Rota: [remembers something]
"Dad how come you like tea so much?"
[Grown man sobbing]
"I can't get drunk!"

[Johnathan meanwhile sits at his seat.,Calmly and politely eating. It might be slow but...he is eating quite a bit.]
TheToonKing91109/03/2019
--- --- --- --- ---
[Everyone continues to eat and chat, having such a good time... which seemed to ignore what was soon to come.]
[Rika watches everyone throughout...]
[The row of faces ranging from calm to excited, careless to happy...all dining together at the same table...]
---
[Compared to all the time she'd spent in the Hiyashi Estate, practicing her cooking and tea brewing all alone...Never dining with a guest before Rota and Taro happened upon her...]
---
Rika: [Glances around]
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[...]
--- --- --- --- ---
[Soon...it was time for the deserts...]
Waiter: "The chefs really went all out..."
??: "They saw those fights too, and wanted to give it their all just like them..."
Rika & Abra:
[As Johnathan spots the desert, he smiles somewhat.]
Johnathan: "Haven't had a meal like this in a while..."
[...]
[Arashi wipes his mouth and gets up from the table]
Arashi "Thanks but my cheat day isn't till later this week. I'm gonna go for a run! Should be back in time for the next Match!"
[Just like that Arashi was off!]
[As Arashi left, the camera zooomed out to reveal his full form...]
Rota: "Hmm..I'll head out to."
[Stands]
[...]
Arashi "Don't think it'll be that easy to keep up with me buddy!"
Rota: "We'll see!"
[...]
[...]
[Both run out...]
--- --- ---
***Arashi and Rota face off in Movement checks...!***
[Though the run started just fine, Arashi felt a twitch in his stomach which quickly turned to a sharp pain.]
Arashi: Urk!
[Suddenly he was left as just barely above a brisk walk, while Rota, on the other hand...]
[Had left him in the dust...]
***Rota wins this challenge!***
--- --- ---
[Son Gohan downs a new sake bottle...]
Son Gohan: "Good hic stuff...just like the other bottles..."
"hicAnother!!"
???: "That was the last one..."
[A drunk blush is somehow visible through his mask]
"Whaddya hic mean..."
[Slowly puts head to table]
--- --- ---
Abra:
Abra: "Abra can eat all this right? Abra won't get hit or bothered if she eats, right!?"
Rika: "You can't eat all of this Abra, then their won't be any left for us..."
Abra:
Abra: "Abra never able to eat everything, well at least Abra get bigger treat the before... Bouncy lady got away from Abra so Abra needs lots of food!"
Rika: [Waves hand towards the cake in front of them]
"You can have the first taste."
[Abra begins reaching her hands to the cake then pulls back.]
Abra: "Oopsies! Abra almost touch the cake, Abra not suppose to use hands for that!"
[She picks up a knife and very slowly and carefully takes a piece.]
"IT'S SO GOOD!"
Rika: [Smiles, eating her own bite]
"Its better if everyone can have some, even if one person gets less."
"It's like when you shared your ice cream with me.`
Abra: "So Abra make other people happy by not taking there sweets?"
"So Abra did a good thing! Abra did good again, Abra on a roll today!"
Jewel: ("Humans... with tails? I can't believe I didn't see it before during their fights!")
("But I've never heard of this before... yet, here they are, two such beings in front of me.")

Baton Pass
[With only minutes before the commencement of round two both Arashi and Rota returned to the hall]
[With Rota arriving first after having maintained an incredibly solid lead from start to finish.]
[Meanwhile Arashi ..]
[Was doing his best.]
Arashi ("Ga! Gah! Jeez! How can someone injured run that fast?!")
[Arashi would wave Rota off. Promising the blind traveler that he'd catch up once tge cramp subsided]
Arashi: "OK pant you pant go on ahead! There's something pant I gotta check on first!"
--- --- --- --- ---
[Rota returned to lunch...]
[Rota walked up to Rika]
Rika: "How are your injuries, do they still hurt?"
Rota: [smiles] "Not at all, it's amazing what a good meal can do. Hold on a second."
[Rota took a step back, let in a deep breath, and then...]
Rota: "Phew....I can move a lot better now."
Rika:
"Maybe you should get your clothes."
--- --- --- --- ---
[Meanwhile through the Tournament Halls Arashi roamed around yet not aimlessly.]
Arashi "..."
"Yeeaaahhh! Should be in this direction. Should be enough time to poke his brain."
[As Arashi was walking off that defeat at the swift feet of Rota he couldn't help but ask himself]
Was it luck? Would his mother and father been on the money had the drawing been different? Perhaps his "luck" would run dry once met with a certain walking black hole? Either way he had to ascertain something...]
[The boy seemed oddly serious as he made his way to the infirmary.]
[He'd been there before, when he'd taken Gerie...]
[He finds his way to the double doors...and opens them...]
--- --- ---
[Inside, Arashi quickly focused on who he'd come here for...]
[His entire body wrapped up, and his topknot undone, Makushita layed back in one of the beds...still unconscious...]
[Arashi approached the bed, and a nurse goes up to him]
???: "Uhm, I'm afraid he won't be waking up any time soon..."
"He suffered a concussion in addition to his other injuries, he could use the rest..."
[...]
[Arashi cringes from hearing all this]
"Holy-!" [Covers his mouth.]
"Uh wow, sorry. It felt like I was hitting a steel wall so I thought he'd bounce back like Rota. Can I at least ... sit here for a bit?"
???: [Nods head] "Of course..." [Walks off]
Arashi "Thanks! I'll be quick."
[Arashi grabs a chair and sits next to Makushita.]
[The young pugilist gives the fallen Sumo God another once over]
"I guess that answers half my question but I still man."
" ...wish I could've heard it straight from you. Even if mom wanted me to figure it out solo. I wanted to hear what it's like to be a Yokozuna. What made you compete when ya probably got other challengers knocking at your door?"
"What does it mean to be strong?"
[...]
--- --- ---
Flashback Makushita: "I'd be left out from everyone else if their were weight classes. Just like in sumo, I'm grateful to have a chance to challenge myself against anyone here."
[...]
"Then their shouldn't be a bit of laughter. I look forward to any challenger."
[...]
"The Tenkaichi Budokai...Not only lacks any restrictions on weight, but fighting style as well..."
"How could I chance it...letting this opportunity slip by..."
"How often does a yokozuna get a opportunity like this...to still aim even higher?"
--- --- ---
[Makushita turns to Arashi, who straightens out in surprise.]
[The nearby nurse turns and nearly falls over in shock]
???: "S-Sir, don't push yourself---"
[With Rota arriving first after having maintained an incredibly solid lead from start to finish.]
[Meanwhile Arashi ..]
[Was doing his best.]
Arashi ("Ga! Gah! Jeez! How can someone injured run that fast?!")
[Arashi would wave Rota off. Promising the blind traveler that he'd catch up once tge cramp subsided]
Arashi: "OK pant you pant go on ahead! There's something pant I gotta check on first!"

[The nearby nurse turns and nearly falls over in shock]

- Spoiler:
[Makushita struggled to keep conscious for a moment, holding out his hand for Arashi to take...]
[Arashi, without a second thought reaches out and takes Yokozuna's hand.]
"Figures my dad's brawling buddy wouldn't stay down for long. Taking you on... was a blast, and an honor sir."
[Makushita simply squeezes Arashi's hands for a moment...]
Makushita had arrived at the Tenkaichi Budokai with every intension to win...
Despite his recent tournaments, and those to come, he entered without hesitation...and didn't allow the future to worry him...
He had completely and utterly been defeated by Arashi.
In this moment Makushita's expression appeared to say...
"I gave it everything I had."
"Now its your turn."
Makushita: [Lets go of hand]
[Arashi turns around and starst to take his leave.]
"Yeah. I guess you're right."
[Time Until Round 2: Six Minutes!]
"What does it mean to be Yokozuna"
Is not unlike saying "What does it mean to be a champion?"
[Arashi exits the door, as Makushita settles back...]
For Makushita it simply meant...Perhaps bizarrely...
"Never forget the 'spirit of a challenger'...Which brought you this far."

Round 2 Begins
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
Nearly two hours have passed since the climax of Round 1...
In that time...the audience has been engaged in constant gossip!! All on the likes of who might win, or on the origins of any particular fighter...
--- --- ----
[Two silhouettes appear, a man cloaked in a red aura, and a women cloaked in more of a pink/purple...]
Two fighters in particular had a majority of the crowd expecting them to win...
[One silhouette fades into Son Gohan, giving a peace sign]
Son Gohan
The winner of the 18th Tenkaichi Budokai, known throughout the world for his mastery over a plethora of martial arts...
And...
Rose
A complete enigma, Rose ended her first round match in a matter of moments, and not even camera's were able to spot her moment of attack...
Mostly a closed book, the audience has been happy to guess what might be inside...
Even then...Strong contenders have made it to the second round as well...
[A huge silhouette appears...]
The young man who defeated Rota, whose fast and powerful strikes had within the hour earned him the nickname "Silver Fang" ...
Krillin
The "Monster Monk"...
As well as..
Johnathan
The Combat Doppelganger who seems to devour the techniques of anyone he sees...
--- --- --- --- --- ---
And another whose reputation has exploded...
[In the crowd, a group reraised their banner...]
Katsuo: [Wipes away his tears, along with most of the Makushita fans around him]
"I can't believe its come to this...But we can't leave just because the Yokozuna was defeated..."
"Not after he showed it to us..."
Banner:
*Arashi/Storm
[Katsuo flashes back to the end of Arashi Vs Makushita...]
"I'm not even sure what 'it' was..."
"But 'it' ..."
"Blew away the 'God of Sumo'!!"
Katsuo: "So from now on we'll be rooting for you...!!"
He had earned the name 'Fujin' after shouting out the name of his signature technique...
Arashi
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[...]
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[The crowd has gathered once again around the fighting stage, where the announcer was stepping up to continue...]
Announcer: "Everyone, thank you for your patience!!"
"With this time, all eight of our fighters have had plenty of rest! They seem to be back in top form!!"
"Which means its time for us to begin the second round!!"
Crowd: "WOOOOOOOO!!!"
Announcer: "That's the spirit!!"
--- --- --- --- ---
Rika:
--- --- ---
"Iiiiiinnn the left corner...!!"
"Her abilities are among the most unique we've ever seen here....And most would say the same of her beauty!"
"Fighting against her, you can throw away any prep you had against ordinary fighting styles! Will her cold powers freeze out all the martial arts gathered here today!?"
"Let's give it up for the Pale Woman..."
"Yuki-Onna..."
"Rika!!!"
While she wasn't among the considerations for a "top contender"
[Crowd cheers, fists raised over head]
?: "Give it your best shot!!"
??: Coming here with no martial arts took a lot of guts!!"
???: "Just don't get all beat up again!! My heart can't take it!!"
[The roar of cheers seems to blow Rika's hair as she's taken aback...]
A vast portion of the crowd couldn't help but root for her here...
Of course...in the moment...
--- --- ---
They'd forgotten who her opponent was to be...
[Arashi hops up to roof with a now well rested Krillin. Using both hands to cover his ears.]
"For the love of Kami! Dad might be right. The lookers almost always have the most fans."
[Arashi takes a seat at the very top of the roof and looks straight down at Rika]
"Hey Krillin, not trying to be mean here but the tournament organizers are smart enough to have all the docs on close standby right?"
[Arashi felt a heavy dread that only a handful of onlookers picked shared. This would be no ordinary fight ...]
[Jewel, meanwhile, was standing upon the ground for the time being, wanting to conserve everything she could spare for her upcoming fight. She stands by the destroyed portion of the wall, which gives her a clear view of the ring. Her eyes are alight with worry, remembering who Rika is up against]
Jewel: ("For Rika especially, this match won't be easy... That 'Rose'... she's capable of throwing attacks no one was able to see...")
("However...")
--- --- ---
[Flash to Jewel nervous before her fight with Man-Wolf, as well as Jewel's mysterious power activating]
Rika's Voice (Flashback): "I know you can do it, Jewel..."
--- --- ---

("Even though... my instincts as a martial artist... say not to...")

[Rota stood to the side, arms crossed as he leaned against the wall]
[He couldn’t deny what Rikas opponent was capable of. But even so he had faith in Rikas abilities as well.
However, recent events also made him worry about motive. And just how far Rose would go if pushed to a corner.]
Rota: (I’ll stand here and wait, and hope the rules keep her in check. But if they don’t.)
[Rota closed his eyes and took in a deep breath before opening.]
Rota: Be safe.....
--- --- --- --- ---
Announcer: "And in the the riiiiight corner..."
"While her opponent isn't even human, we seem to know even less about this women!"
"She blew us away when she defeated the 'World's Strongest Giras' in a flash..."
"While I've heard names such as "Queen of Combat" pop up, I can't help but notice her now trademark lab coat..."
"I think we may not be dealing with a master martial artist, but a 'Master of Sciences' !! Is this all a part of her latest experiment !?"
"Nobody blink, or you might miss whatever she pulls out next...!!"
"Iiiiittss...!!"
"Rooooose!!!"
[Rose takes a deep inhale of the cigarette, before tossing it outside of the ring as she steps in; blowing the smoke out as she walks forward.]
--- --- ---
[As it falls down, Gerie is seen squeezing between members of the crowd, still all hanging out in Succubus form]
("That Rose may have just tried to eat me ,but I'm definitely cheering for her here...Besides, who could blame her...")
("I can't wait to see her trash that annoying ice bitch...Just thinking about it gets me w--")
???: [Middle aged man]"Excuse me.."
[Lifts camera]
Gerie: "Oh, you want a pic with the goods---"
[Passes Gerie and hands her the camera]
???: "Could you get Rika-chan in the shot?" [Poses, with Rika standing idly in the background of the shot]
Gerie:
[Angrily takes a bunch of photos]

Announcer: "Now then..."

Announcer: "Let the first match of the second round..."

"Yuki-onna" Rika Vs "Master of Sciences" Rose
Begin!!!
Nearly two hours have passed since the climax of Round 1...
In that time...the audience has been engaged in constant gossip!! All on the likes of who might win, or on the origins of any particular fighter...
--- --- ----
[Two silhouettes appear, a man cloaked in a red aura, and a women cloaked in more of a pink/purple...]
Two fighters in particular had a majority of the crowd expecting them to win...
[One silhouette fades into Son Gohan, giving a peace sign]
Son Gohan
The winner of the 18th Tenkaichi Budokai, known throughout the world for his mastery over a plethora of martial arts...
And...
Rose
A complete enigma, Rose ended her first round match in a matter of moments, and not even camera's were able to spot her moment of attack...
Mostly a closed book, the audience has been happy to guess what might be inside...
Even then...Strong contenders have made it to the second round as well...
[A huge silhouette appears...]
The young man who defeated Rota, whose fast and powerful strikes had within the hour earned him the nickname "Silver Fang" ...
Krillin
The "Monster Monk"...
As well as..
Johnathan
The Combat Doppelganger who seems to devour the techniques of anyone he sees...
--- --- --- --- --- ---
And another whose reputation has exploded...
[In the crowd, a group reraised their banner...]
Katsuo: [Wipes away his tears, along with most of the Makushita fans around him]
"I can't believe its come to this...But we can't leave just because the Yokozuna was defeated..."
"Not after he showed it to us..."
Banner:
*Arashi/Storm
[Katsuo flashes back to the end of Arashi Vs Makushita...]
"I'm not even sure what 'it' was..."
"But 'it' ..."
"Blew away the 'God of Sumo'!!"
Katsuo: "So from now on we'll be rooting for you...!!"
He had earned the name 'Fujin' after shouting out the name of his signature technique...
Arashi
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[...]
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[The crowd has gathered once again around the fighting stage, where the announcer was stepping up to continue...]
Announcer: "Everyone, thank you for your patience!!"
"With this time, all eight of our fighters have had plenty of rest! They seem to be back in top form!!"
"Which means its time for us to begin the second round!!"
Crowd: "WOOOOOOOO!!!"
Announcer: "That's the spirit!!"
--- --- --- --- ---
Rika:
--- --- ---
"Iiiiiinnn the left corner...!!"
"Her abilities are among the most unique we've ever seen here....And most would say the same of her beauty!"
"Fighting against her, you can throw away any prep you had against ordinary fighting styles! Will her cold powers freeze out all the martial arts gathered here today!?"
"Let's give it up for the Pale Woman..."
"Yuki-Onna..."
"Rika!!!"
While she wasn't among the considerations for a "top contender"
[Crowd cheers, fists raised over head]
?: "Give it your best shot!!"
??: Coming here with no martial arts took a lot of guts!!"
???: "Just don't get all beat up again!! My heart can't take it!!"
[The roar of cheers seems to blow Rika's hair as she's taken aback...]
A vast portion of the crowd couldn't help but root for her here...
Of course...in the moment...
--- --- ---
They'd forgotten who her opponent was to be...
[Arashi hops up to roof with a now well rested Krillin. Using both hands to cover his ears.]
"For the love of Kami! Dad might be right. The lookers almost always have the most fans."
[Arashi takes a seat at the very top of the roof and looks straight down at Rika]
"Hey Krillin, not trying to be mean here but the tournament organizers are smart enough to have all the docs on close standby right?"
[Arashi felt a heavy dread that only a handful of onlookers picked shared. This would be no ordinary fight ...]
[Jewel, meanwhile, was standing upon the ground for the time being, wanting to conserve everything she could spare for her upcoming fight. She stands by the destroyed portion of the wall, which gives her a clear view of the ring. Her eyes are alight with worry, remembering who Rika is up against]
Jewel: ("For Rika especially, this match won't be easy... That 'Rose'... she's capable of throwing attacks no one was able to see...")
("However...")
--- --- ---
[Flash to Jewel nervous before her fight with Man-Wolf, as well as Jewel's mysterious power activating]
Rika's Voice (Flashback): "I know you can do it, Jewel..."
--- --- ---
Jewel: [Aloud, though still under her breath] "I will root for you, Rika, just as you did for me."
("Even though... my instincts as a martial artist... say not to...")

[...]
Rika: [Takes a step forward, looking at Rose...]
[Suddenly pauses]
[Rose's sword in an instant slashes right through Rika's icey weapon, and into her...]
[The slash cleanly slices through; swinging around and back in one quick motion, striking through Rika's most vital spots.]
[She can only watch her body be cut down...]
[Rose spins around and slashes the sword to send blood from the blade. She gracefully slides the backend of the blade along its sheath as she begins to stow it...before Rika falls to the ground.]
--- --- ---
[In the "real world", Rose seemed to disappear, and instantly reappear behind Rika...]
[Before Rika's shirt ruffled in a series of delayed impacts all at once...a light mist trailed out of her mouth for a moment...]
[And she fell onto her knees, and backwards...]

Arashi "I think she just...won."

[From atop the nearby wall, Abra watched...]
Abra: "Mama killed another one of Abra's friends."
"Time for new a one Abra guesses..."
--- --- ---
Announcer:
[Shakes self back into focus.]
"1...2..!!"
[...]
[Pauses]
[Shakes head.]
"Without a doubt, that's a knockout."
[...]
"Yuki-Onna" Rika...
Retires in the second round...
Announcer: "Moments after the match had begun, Rose lands a single decisive blow quicker then anyone can see...!!!!"
"Master of Sciences" Rose...
"The winner is...!!!"
"Roooooooseeee!!!"
[Rose turns, staring at Rika for a moment.]
"..."
Moves on...
--- --- ---
[Krillin sees this]
Krillin: ("Don't tell me she's thinking about...")
("Eating her!?!")
Rose: "Alright...lets get you to the infirmary..." [She takes a step forward, crouching down next to Rika.]
Announcer: [Lifts mic] "Ahh, contestant Rose is helping Rika-chan to the infirmary, just like some of our previous victors."
"That's the kind of spirit we like to see here at---"
Jewel: [As the announcer speaks, closes eyes]
("It was the result I'd expected... and I still didn't see what she did ...")
("Sorry, Rika...")
[Blip]
Announcer: "..."
[Rika has ...disappeared?]
--- --- ---
[Jewel opens eyes...seeing Rika gone...]
Krillin:
("S-She must have done it!!")
Announcer: [Full body turns left and right]
"..."
"Where did she go...!?"
Rose: [Smile] "She's in a special place, so that I can take her to the infirmary more easily."
[She says, somewhat uncharacteristically.]
Announcer: [Sees Rose's sudden expression] "..."
[Slouches.]
"B-But...what does...that mean..."
--- --- ---
[Meanwhile, Rika's loss is sinking in to Gerie...]
"It could have been soooo much slower, but yes !!"
"She got what she had coming!!"
[Forgets the whole almost being eaten thing, waving towards Rose]
"Thank you so much, Rose!!!~"
-- --- ---
Rose: [Turns towards Gerie's voice with a smile. Then somewhat blushes.] ("She's looking at me?!")
Jewel: [Towards Gerie's... celebration]
"Yeesh... even outside the tournament she can't not be... her."
[To herself] "But still... where did Rika go... A 'special place'...? Did she pull out one of those capsule things while I wasn't looking?"
Arashi "At this point what can't this lady do?"
[...]
[...]
[...]
[Murmurs spread across the audience of what had actually happened. But as they continued, a few changed as they took note of the stage.]
[Walking through the path towards the stage, was Rota].
Announcer: Iiiiit would appear that former contestant Rota has just walked up to the stage, what could be his intent?!
[Announcer walks up to Rota]
Announcer: Hey, you should't....be.....
[Rota walked past him without a word.]
Jewel: "Rota...?"
"What are you...?"
Krillin:
("We're the only ones who know what must have happened...)
[Rota finally stopped, a foot apart from Rose]
[There is an intensity flaring off from the two.]
Arashi "ROTA! I don't think you wanna do that bro!"
Rota: "Spit her out...now."
Rose: "..."
"Eh--?!"
"Why is there such an intense expression on your face?!"
[Neither seem to budge...]
Rose: [Either ignoring or not catching what Rota said:] "D-did you want to accompany me to the Infirmary since she's your friend?"
"If so we should probably get going, people are starting to stare..."
[Her voice is somewhat brighter than before, as she uncharacteristically speaks]
[Rota tightens a fist]
Rota: "I won't ask a third time, let her go, and I'll take her."
Rose: [Blinks] "My way is more efficient, with no fear of harm from carrying her while moving..."
Krillin:
[Arashi glances at Krillin.]
Arashi: "Dude? You ok?"
"You look more nervous than usual and you ain't even fighting."
Jewel: "Rota wasn't this intense in his match earlier..."
"But why?" [Starting to grow worried]
--- --- ---
Rose: [Her tone somewhat returns back to "normal"] "As the one who inflicted the damage, I'm aware of what might instill more. This way her body won't come to any unnecessary harm."
Rose: "If you're that worried, I'll just show you then..."

Rose: "We shouldn't just stick around here. So I'm going to just take you to the Infirmary too..."
[For a moment, there is a bit of frost that comes from Rose's body.]
[She begins to reach her hand out. Rota quickly begins to move, but in a flash; the ground underneath them flash freezes: and Rota is gone.]
End of Turn!
--- --- ---
Jewel: "Rota's gone, now, too??"
[Announcers foot comes down, standing up to Rose.]
[Despite Rose's reputation and apparent strength, he stood up for the sanctity of the tournament.]
Announcer: "Contestant Rose..."
"While you're both responsible... Fighting of any kind outside of the official matches are not allowed, continue further and you both will be escorted out."
"And while I don't have any idea what you've done with her..."
"If you continue to harbor Rika, or Rota for that matter, you will be disqualified from the Budokai!!"
The Announcer enters the battle...!!
[Rose slowly begins to raise her arm.]
Announcer: [Doesn't flinch]
"This isn't up for debate."
Rose: "...I wasn't going to fight with you, Announcer-kun."
[lowers her arm again]
"I've already brought Rika back," [points to the spot Rika was previously.]
[Announcer and the crowd turn their heads]
[Rika is essentially back in the same position as if she never left at all.]
[Rota also appears in the same position he was in, before Rose made him disappear.]
Rose: "If you really want to, we can do this the normal way..."
"...but don't complain when moving her escalates any of her injuries..." [Rose begins to take a step passed the announcer]
Rika^
Crowd:
[Rota picks himself up from the ground and walks up to Rika.]
Rota: ("Still couldn't do a thing, huh?")
[He removes his shirt, and wraps it around Rika before picking her up.]
Rota: "You fought well, Rika."
[Crowd watches this, suddenly blushing over this...]
?: "W-What's their relationship..."
??: "He's just a kid, don't be stupid..."
"Rika's a real woman!"

Winning Against Oneself
[Krillin let's out his held breath, as a spout of steam...]
[As Rota passes through the hall from which the fighters have gathered, Jewel turns to Rota]
Jewel: "Hey, Rota!"
"What... happened? Why did you... well, step in? And what happened to you? You suddenly vanished too..."
Rota: Before the round started, something...odd happened.
"I don't know how, but Abra, she tried to eat Gerie."
[Is said in such a way only the contestants over by Jewel can hear]
Krillin: [Nods, as Arashi gets confused besides him...]
[...]
Jewel: "What!? [quieter] That... little girl tried to... eat someone?"
"Are you sure you saw--"
"...are you sure you witnessed that right?"
[...]
Rota: "I'm sure, almost got eaten myself trying to save her."
Jewel: "... And you think that Rose did the same thing to Rika, just now?"
"But... I didn't see Rose really do anything... again... I must have missed it...?"
Arashi "Huh?"
Jewel: [Thinks] "But... if you're still here, and so was she (Gerie)... Abra must have been stopped, right?"
Rota: That's right
Jewel: "I see... So it was Rose that saved you then...?"
[Closing eyes in thought]
"Makes sense, since Rose is Abra's mother. But if that's the case... I'm not sure what you're saying she tried matches with her stopping Abra earlier... Since for a few moments you had also disappeared there..."
Rota: Being her daughters mother, I imagine she can do it too....but this was different.
"I wasn't sitting in some stomach, it felt like I was nowhere."
"In an empty void until I was let out again."
Jewel: "An... an empty void...?"
"Is that what she meant by 'special place'...?"
[Closes eyes again, then sighs]
"I see. I'm not really sure what Rose did to you two, but it sounds like whoever wins this next match may have to contend with it next round."
"Let's hurry and get Rika to the infirmary."
[Arashi rubs his chin in not so deep thought]
Arashi "Woah, so Abra can eat projectile attacks and people? That might be a problem."
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[Meanwhile a bunch of gi wearing teens were running for all they were worth...]
?: "We [pant] just finished!!"
??: "A-A [pant] Are we gonna make it in time?
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
Announcer: "Now then... We will begin the second match shortly!!"
[After a moment of silence a smile spread across Arashi's face. The boy had to admit, his interest was piqued]
Arashi "Welp, becoming A-Block Champion was never gonna be easy to begin with...but that's no reason to lose focus! Cuz you're up next buddy!"
Krillin: "..." [Walks off]
"Well... I'm off..."
Arashi: "Krillin."
"One more thing."
[Krillin turns back]
[...]
Arashi: "When I first met ya you didn't even know how tough you were."
"Now look at ya. You beat a beast like Rota and made it to the quarter finals."
[...]
Arashi: "But that ain't gonna cut it anymore."
"You're strong, don't get me wrong, but if you wanna take the win from someone who's got the talent and even more heart? You gotta make that strength your own for real and walk into that Ring convinced you're gonna win!"
Krillin: "Kay..."
[Turns, and continues walking.]
[...]
[Jewel glances between the two, sweat dropping...]
[Krillin hops off of the roof...]
--- --- ---
[He walks off to prepare for his entrance in the martial arts hall...]
[...]
Krillin: ("Shouldn't I be...")
[Background fades out to black]
("Totally scared right now?")
[Pauses]
("Ah...")
He had already faced off with a wolf ...
So...
[Adjusts wristband]
What did he have to fear?
("Thanks...Rota.")
("Still...Arashi...") [Looks down, somewhat saddened...]
("I...couldn't do it...")
[Closes eyes, gritting teeth.]
("This time...I couldn't just say 'I'll definitely win' ...")
("I've realized the times I did say it..")
[Flashback to saying how he'd win against Rota...]
("I didn't really mean it...What I really felt was 'I'll give it my best shot' ...So I couldn't lie this time.")
Krillin: ("You probably think so, but...I haven't lost sight of anything...")
--- --- --- --- ---
[Voiceover from the past...]
Kame-sennin: "Listen to me...Krillin. One does not simply study martial arts to win a fight, or to have girls go 'Oooo~~, you're so strong!!'..."
"One masters those arts for health in mind and body, for the ability to live one's life courageously, uniquely, and with as much energy as one wishes! On the path of Budo one does not just strive for victory over an opponent..."
"One strives to avoid defeat by one's own self!!"
--- --- --- --- ---
[Meanwhile, the announcer is reading out Krillin's entrance speech, but as Krillin's surroundings phased out the mans mouth moved but was muted...]
Krillin: ("I didn't originally come here to win against someone like Rota, or even you...")
("I came here to win against myself, the me from back then .")
("...Sorry I just stormed off like that though...)
Announcer: [Voice fades back in]
"It's the little Monster Monk himself!!"
Krillin: ("But don't worry about me.")
--- --- ---
[A confused, and somewhat annoyed, Arashi has his arms crossed, watching the entrance...when he sees...]
--- --- ---
Announcer: "Krilllliiiinnn!!"
Krillin: ("I'm giving this fight everything I've got.")
Arashi ("Go get em.")
[As Rota passes through the hall from which the fighters have gathered, Jewel turns to Rota]

Krillin Vs Johnathan
"Annnnnd in the right corner...!!"
"Don't let his good looks fool you!!"
--- --- --- --- ---
--- --- ---
Announcer: "He's got a bottomless sense for combat, unraveling styles and techniques with but a glance, and adding them to his repertoire!!"
"He without a doubt possesses the most dangerous weapon in martial arts !!"
"The longer he fights, no, the longer this tournament goes on...the stronger he becomes!!"
"It's!"
"Joohhhnnathan!!"
--- --- ---
[The crowd of students arrives at the back of the crowd, loudly panting, a few nearly collapsing from the strain of choosing to finish their exercises before running here...]
[In fact, one or two had to be brought in, passing out mid run...]
[Johnathan sees them as he eyes the crowd.]
"...Still gotta work on that stamina, huh.."
---
[A few students see that contemplative look in his eye, and start sweating over what new training may be waiting for them...]
--- --- ---
[Johnathan looks at them for a moment...before his eyes move..as he begins to scan the arena and the ground around it...even looking into the crowd.]
[....]
[His eagle-eyes spotted it...]
[The tie and suit top he'd tossed aside earlier...It was now being hugged tightly by a woman who looked back at him, and used a finger to trace a message back to him in the air...]
"..."
[Johnathan walks over to the edge of the arena]
"Give me those back, just toss them here."
[The old women's eyes widened, as the handsome young man seemed to give all his attention to her...]
[The look of his eyes seemed to take every bit of her in, and she hadn't felt like that in so long...It had a sudden effect on the women...]
[Suddenly, she felt a good forty years younger...]
[...]
[Johnathan doesn't seem to care at all about her reaction.]
[Lifts up the clothes...]
[Johnathan takes them.] "Thought i was about to have to take them back, thank you. in the future, please don't touch anything of mine, even if i seemingly discard it." [Walks back to his position, throwing the coat on, tattered as it is....seeing the tie tattered however, he just discards it once more.]
[The women didn't appear to here anything after his "Thank you"]
--- --- ---
Announcer: "Fighters, if you could, take your stances..."
[Johnathan takes his normal stance, Standing mostly straight, arms near his head...]
[Krillin lets out an exhale, lifting his hands and lowering down somewhat into stance...]
[...]
("Yeah...Just like I expected...")
("His pressures no different...No, its probably even more focused on me...")
Announcer: "Now..."
[Feeling the excitement and tension building, he lifts his hand overhead...]
"Let the second match of this round..."
[Swings his hand down, and suddenly both fighters were off in a blur...]
"Begin!!!"
[The nearby monks strike their gong yet again...]

[Both fighters were off, ready to claim the initiative...]
[And the one to grab hold of it was...]
Krillin's turn!
[Mere moments before the two reached each other, Krillin launched off the ground mid run, perfectly bringing his momentum into the kick he now threw.]
"HYAAAH!!"

Krillin attacks Johnathan with a Basic Physical Attack, but misses!

[Johnathan's fist shoots upwards, aiming for the side of Krillin's head as the boy falls from the kick...]
[Krillins entire body suddenly twists, pulling itself to the side in a quick spin]
--- --- ---
[Markus raises his eyebrows at the feat...]

[Though as Johnathan's fist raised, it still seemed sure to hit---]
[The uppercut did touch, but just barely slid across Krillin's cheek, pulling his skin up by causing no damage...]
Johnathan attacks Krillin with a Basic Physical Attack, but misses!
[Krillins spin pulled him over finally, landing him a few tiles away...]
[Johnathan smirks, as his fist lowers...Both arms retracting into his normal stance. but instead of widening his stance...he bounces from one leg to another, keeping his body mobile...]
Johnathan burns an AP to take the Dodge action, Johnathan AP 4 -> 3

Round 2, start!

[Krillin rubbed his cheek, which was turning somewhat red, as he watched Johnathan get into rhythm with is footwork...]
Krillin's turn
[Before running forth...]
[As he does, he sees Johnathan's eyes easily keeping track of him, and his footwork preparing to shift in response...]
[So, he had to throw those eyes off...]
Krillin: [One foot lands down, leg bulging, before he starts suddenly jumping in every direction at high speeds...]
Johnathan:
[Johnathan's eyes darted around, keeping up with Krillin's movements, until...]
[With a particularly intense burst of speed, Krillin sped past Johnathan, landing behind him and...]
[With both arms, he grappled Johnathan's arms back out of his boxing stance...]
Krillin successfully grapples Johnathan!!
Announcer: "...!!!"
"After another impressive display of speed, Krillin has managed to get a solid hold on Johnathan!!"
Krillin: "That footwork won't help you now...!!"
[Suddenly pulls back, feet turning to run...]
"Not where we're going!!"
[Johnathan looks back at krillin, eyes wide.]
Announcer: "Now..."
"Krillin's charging him out of the ring!!!"
--- --- ---
?: "S-Sensei!!"
--- --- ---
[Indeed, Krillin charges towards the rings edge as fast as he can, pulling Johnathan along thanks to his grapple...]
[As soon as his feet planted at the rings edge, he pulled for all he was worth, and tossed Johnathan...!!]
Announcer: "Unbelievable...!!!"
Krillin: ("....!!!")
[Johnathan's body flips back around in mid-air..he slams his feet down into the tile floor. managing to halt his momentum enough that he skids to a stop, just at the ring's edge...]
Krillin burns an AP (6 -> 5) to toss Johnathan out of the ring, but he recovers thanks to his advantage on Reflex rolls!!
Krillin: [Frowns, jumping back from the dangers of the edge, keeping his eyes on Johnathan]
("Didn't think so...")

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
Round 2, start!
--- --- ---
[Krillin rubbed his cheek, which was turning somewhat red, as he watched Johnathan get into rhythm with is footwork...]
Krillin's turn
[Before running forth...]
[As he does, he sees Johnathan's eyes easily keeping track of him, and his footwork preparing to shift in response...]
[So, he had to throw those eyes off...]
Krillin: [One foot lands down, leg bulging, before he starts suddenly jumping in every direction at high speeds...]
Johnathan:
[Johnathan's eyes darted around, keeping up with Krillin's movements, until...]
[With a particularly intense burst of speed, Krillin sped past Johnathan, landing behind him and...]
[With both arms, he grappled Johnathan's arms back out of his boxing stance...]
Krillin successfully grapples Johnathan!!
Announcer: "...!!!"
"After another impressive display of speed, Krillin has managed to get a solid hold on Johnathan!!"
Krillin: "That footwork won't help you now...!!"
[Suddenly pulls back, feet turning to run...]
"Not where we're going!!"
[Johnathan looks back at krillin, eyes wide.]
Announcer: "Now..."
"Krillin's charging him out of the ring!!!"
--- --- ---
?: "S-Sensei!!"
--- --- ---
[Indeed, Krillin charges towards the rings edge as fast as he can, pulling Johnathan along thanks to his grapple...]
[As soon as his feet planted at the rings edge, he pulled for all he was worth, and tossed Johnathan...!!]
Announcer: "Unbelievable...!!!"
Krillin: ("....!!!")
[Johnathan's body flips back around in mid-air..he slams his feet down into the tile floor. managing to halt his momentum enough that he skids to a stop, just at the ring's edge...]
Krillin burns an AP (6 -> 5) to toss Johnathan out of the ring, but he recovers thanks to his advantage on Reflex rolls!!
Krillin: [Frowns, jumping back from the dangers of the edge, keeping his eyes on Johnathan]
("Didn't think so...")
Turn End!

The Hungrier One
[The worried students wipe their sweaty brows...]
?: "I was actually worried for a moment there..."
??: "That kid...To actually keep up with sensei...how can he be so good?"
"And he's way younger then me!!"
???: "Me too..."
?: "Yeah..."
[One of the students who can't even stand looks up at Krillin, who takes up a stance once again...]
"Just what kind of training did he have to do?"
--- --- ---
Shaya "What are you thinking?"
[Markus looks back, hoping for some context]
Shaya: "Don't act like ya can't see the resemblance. Personality aside, these two haven't just broke the human limit. They completely eviscerated it ... kinda like you did."
Markus "..."
[Shaya grins.]
Shaya "Would've figured you'd be a lot chipper to these two go at it. What's with the serious face."
[Shaya starts to poke at Markus's cheek bone.]
Markus " ... It's nothing. I just hope Arashi is taking notes. This match isn't about winning, at least not entirely."
"It's whether or not the winner has what it takes to overcome what's next."
"Just like in any real fight, the hungrier one stands the best chance of winning!"
--- --- --- --- ---
[Johnathan glares over at krillin...still not having moved an inch from where he came to a halt...]
[Slowly, he stands straight up..]
[And begins walking over towards krillin, calmly.]
Johnathan's turn!
[Johnathan continues walking....]
[Soon coming right up to the monk...He starts to circle him. still glaring at him the entire time...]
[Krillin continues to face Johnathan as the man circles him...not letting his guard down for even a moment, but then....]
[In a burst of speed, Johnathan's fist sails straight into Krillins head!!]
--- --- ---
Arashi ("This is what I meant Krillin.")
("Ya can't take your eyes off this crazy copycat for even a second!")
--- --- ---
[Krillin is sent flying back, skidding back across the stage...]
Johnathan attacks Krillin with a Basic Physical Attack, inflicting 13 damage! (HP 81 -> 68)
Announcer: "What swift retaliation!!"
"Johnathan wasn't deterred in the slightest by Krillin's maneuver!!"
Round 2, end!

Krillin: ("How'd I lose sight of him...?") [Shakes head]
[Krillin rises to his feet, and wastes no time jumping back into the action...]
("Doesn't matter!!")
Krillin's turn!
[He closes the gap between the two not in a straight line, but in an inconsistent zig-zag pattern, varying his speed greatly]
[Attempting to throw off any sense of timing Johnathan may have before reaching him...]
[Johnathan's stance widens as Krillin races forwards, his eyes never losing track of him....]
[As Krillin's blow reaches him, he moves swiftly to the side, Krillin passing harmlessly to his left.]
[Before Krillin himself can react, Johnathan's arms swing out, and deliver two swift blows to the monks head.]
Announcer: "Ooof, a brutal counter...!!"
Krillin attacks Johnathan with a Basic Physical Attack, but he counters! Inflicting 11 damage to Krillin! (HP 68 -> 57)
[Krillin's body soared back yet again, but the moment his feet touched the ground he kicked right back off at Johnathan with tenacity...]
[His fist came forth, determination not leaving his face, even as it started to swell...]
[Johnathan smirked at Krillin's tenacity, as his head Leaned to the side, krillin's fist soaring straight past..]
[But Krillin couldn't let up there...]
"HAAAHHHH..!!!"
[Krillin's two fists became many, a fierce barrage of punches...]
[Johnathan however, eyed each punch, still with his casual smirk...]
[Weaving between each of them expertly...]
"Ha!! Ha!! Ha!! Ha!! Ha!! Ha!! "
--- --- ---
[The entire crowd watches with their breaths mostly held...]
[...]
?: "He still hasn't landed..."
??: "A single hit..."
--- --- ---
[Eventually Krillin runs out of steam, landing down and back flipping backwards to make some distance...]
Krillin burns an AP to attack again, but misses!!
[Krillin's eyes tremble for a moment...]
Announcer: "After a fierce assault from our Monster Monk, it appears not one blow has landed!! Johnathan is in incredible form!!"
Krillin: [Looks down at his fists, still bandaged up after the last fight...]
("Is the distance between us really this big ?")
("These are the same fists that...")

Krillin: ("...")
("Nothing's changed!!")

Zanzoken
[Johnathan's stance lowers, as he readies himself to launch his next assault...]
--- --- ---
[As the Combat Chimera prepared to strike the Monster Monk Arashi felt a chilling unease.]
Arashi ("Something ain't right here. There ain't that big a gap between em, so the fight should be a total toss-up. So why can Johnathan land shots and still avoid getting tagged?!")
--- --- ---
[Krillin eyed Johnathan's new stance carefully...]
Krillin: ("This ones different...If before was boxing, from Arashi...)
("This is definitely...")
Okami Kenpo
("From Rota...!!")
[Krillin's eyes trembled somewhat at the sight...He'd thought the boxing was just a result of whatever history he had with Arashi...But now Johnathans abilities were clear as day, he really could perfectly copy fighting movements like everyone had said...]
[Johnathan kicks off the ground, his body blurring as he Races towards Krillin...using a Zig-Zag pattern similar to what the monk hard used before...As he moves, he draws his arm backwards...his hand ready to preform the claw-like strikes Rota and Yamcha had used before...]
Krillin: (W-What!?")
[As Johnathan darts around, he can see the images of Rota and...himself, overlapping him. But additionally, a third silhouette appeared with them, one Krillin couldn't recognize... (Yamcha)]
[Krillins body suddenly seems to clench up as Johnathan reached him...]
--- --- ---
?: "!?"
"Move!!"
--- --- ---
[In a flash, Johnathan's stolen claws tore into Krillin, tearing at the head, and then the torso, before Johnathan could stop his momentum...]
[Krillin hadn't moved in the slightest from the strikes...In fact, they had gone straight through him...]
[Suddenly "Krillin" started to fade away...]
Announcer: "What's this!?"
"Johnathan clearly struck the idle Krillin....!! And yet..." [Turns head.]
[Krillin has appeared a ways behind Johnathan...]
"He's right there, unharmed!!"
Johnathan attacks Krillin with a Basic Physical Attack, but Krillin reacts with his Zanzoken, causing him to miss!! (Krillin KP -14 91 -> 77)
Krillin: [Wipes brow] "Phew..."
[As Johnathan notes Krillin's miss, his mind flashes to before, when Nam had used a similar technique...
[Immediately he whirls around, his body goes low, and his arms retract to a guard stance as he does so...making sure he could either block or dodge a possible counter-attack...]
--- --- --- --- ---
Zanzoken
"The Afterimage Fist"
--- --- --- --- ---
Often considered one of the most impressive techniques ever to come out of martial arts. Only those who have crossed over into the realm of superhumans have the physicality to perform it, and only after days upon days of unknown training.
Using a well controlled burst of speed, a phantom image of the fighter is left in their place, from which even the best of martial artists can fail to tell apart from the the real one.
Its origins date back over a century...It was created by one who would go on to create the foundations for modern martial arts...
Mutaito
--- --- --- --- ---
[Johnathan sson realizes, however, that Krilin had gone for no such counter-attack...]
Johnathan: "(So...he can do that too then...)"
[Johnathan's body lowers, as he places one hand on the ground...ready to break off into a spring at a moments notice...his other hand remains clenched behind him...]
Their are only eight users of the Zanzoken currently alive.
[Krillins stance lowers...muscles tensing...]
Krillin had it unknowingly passed on to him by the unknown master, Kame-sennin...
[Krillin disappears for a moment...]
He was the youngest in history to master this technique.
[Multiple phantom images sudden sprout up all around Johnathan...]
[Johnathan's eyes close...and he draws his mind inward.]
[Once more...he begins to build his energy, bringing it to the surface...and calmly flowing it into the muscles around his body... Just as before, his White-Violet aura begins to show...]
Announcer: "Amazing!!"
"The stage has been filled with multiple Krillins!! From the looks of it, he's utilizing only his speed to pull this off!!"
--- --- --- --- ---
Markus: [Eyebrows raised] "How's he doing that..."
Shaya: [Eye twitches slightly.] "...Its the Zanzoken..."
--- --- --- --- ---
[Flashes back]
Shaya:
"Now where do you think you're going!? Explain just what those other yous were about!!"
??: "Hmm?"
Son Gohan: "That was just the Zanzoken ...Nifty, huh?"
--- --- --- --- ---
Shaya: [Watches the multiple Krillins darting around...]
"In all these years since I'd never seen it used by anyone else...And I've never been able to pull it off myself..."
"This kid is something else..."
Markus: "..."
[Is impressed by Krillin for sure...but his eyes are focused right on Johnathan...]

Unnatural Talent
("This kind of ki control...He's years ahead of Arashi on this...Gathering so much in this amount of time...")
("Whats more...")
--- --- ---
[Flashesback to the Eagle Fist used on Nam...
--- --- ---
("It's even more refined then back then...!!")
--- --- ---
[Johnathan's eyes open...And begin to trace the movement of the phantoms...]
Markus ("Just how deep does this guys talent go...")
Johnathan: ("So, you're moving from position to position at great speed...enough to leave images of yourself behind...Attempting to trick someone into attacking the phantoms...")
[...]
[Krillin is zipping around, keeping up the afterimages with some stress...]
[Suddenly, Johnathan's head calmly turns to follow him...]
Johnathan: ("And even if i struck at the right time...those positions don't leave you truly open. You could simply guard...No...")
Johnathan: "(The best time to strike....)"
[Krillin dash's to his next position..faster than the crowd can see...As he does so, Johnathan kicks off.. Suddenly appearing before Krillin in a blur of white-violet light...Arm already drawn back...]
Johnathan: ("Is when you're already moving!")
Even Johnathan could not yet tell the difference between the phantom images and the real Krillin.
So he found another way...
Krillin: "!?"
[Looks into Johnathan's eyes... clearly looking back at him, and sees his own reflection.]
By instead predicting Krillins movements.
[!!!!]
[In a Flash of white, Johnathan's fist soars upwards, Slamming into the monks stomach...The impact rippling energy into Krillin's body...and causing a white-violet shockwave.]
[But as Krillin starts to be blown back by fhe force...the same hand that hit him grabs the Monk by the Gi...pulling him back inwards as Johnathan launches another blow..]
--- --- ---
Arashi:
[The next blow is thrown as a straight...Impacting much the same area as the first...but instead of lifting krillin up. The impact and shockwave of this one starts to throw him forwards...]
[But as this happens...Once again, the same arm that hit him grabs onto Krillins leg, and yanks the monk backwards..]
[As he's yanked back, Krillin opens his eyes. Only to see Johnathan's next blow..already soaring downwards towards his head..]
Krillin:
Krillin: ("Have to---")
--- --- ---
Arashi: "KRILLIN!!!"
--- --- ---
[The final blow, Slam's into Krillin, sending the Monk head-first into the ground...The final shockwave rippling out around them, The stage floor practically crumbling from the force...]
[With the blow finished, Johnathan steps back...The remainder of his Aura calmly dissipating.]
Johnathan burns an AP (3 ->2) to attempt his Eagle's Fist (KP -22 76 -> 54), and Krillin attempts his Zanzoken once again (AP 5 -> 4/KP 77 -> 63)...
[...]
However, Johnathan's signature technique strikes true as a critical hit!! Inflicting a devastating 54 damage that he fails to endure!! (Krillin HP 57 -> 3/AP 4 -> 3))
Krillin is dealt a crippling blow!! Giving him disadvantage on rolls for the next round!!
HP 3
[Krillin is motionless on the ground...his face already darkening, and swelling up...]
[The crowd is all but silent...]
Announcer: [Looks at Krillin, wincing slightly...]
Krillin: [Hand twitches...]
Announcer: [Nods slightly" "1...2...3..."

??: "I think he started that in the last match..."
???: "One of sensei's...secret techniques?"
??: "He really didn't hold back at all..."

"...6..."
[Krillin can't even hear the count...his brain swimming in the stages in crater...]
[As he looked into the sky, the white of the clouds swirled into the blue sky like their were two liquids swirling down a drain...]
"Stand..."
--- --- --- --- ---
[Flashback...]
[ ~ Unknown Master - Kame-sennin ~ ]
"Alright, stand up..."
[Camera goes over to a dirt field, numerous lines tilled in it...]
[At the end of a line in progress, Krillin was collapsed face first.]
[He still wore his Orin Temple gi at this point...]
[He twitches, and starts to stand...]
[He lifts up dirty, scraped, practically bleeding hands]
"Yooww-ow-ow...."
"My poor hands..."
[Kame-sennin takes a puff from his pipe...]
"..."
"What took you so long? Let's finally eat, I'm starving!"
"I don't envy you...Tomorrows field are even bigger!"
Krillin: [falls over]
Krillin's Training Under Kame-sennin - Day 1
[However, Krillin looked up....]
Krillin: "R-Right!!"
"I'll do whatever it takes!"
Kame-sennin: ("So serious...")
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[Flashback shifts... to earlier today...]
[When Krillin was just staring at his bandaged fists...After he'd pushed past his limits and defeated Rota with them...]
[After all the years at Orin Temple...after pushing and pushing with Kame-sennin...These hands had actually done it...]
In this moment, without realizing it, as a martial artist Krillin reached the worst conclusion he possibly could have...
"I finally made it...It was all worth it..."
[Arashi and Markus' earlier remarks...]
Arashi: "You gotta make that strength your own for real and walk into that Ring convinced you're gonna win!"
Markus: "This match isn't about winning, at least not entirely. It's whether or not the winner has what it takes to overcome what's next. Just like in any REAL fight, the hungrier one stands the best chance of winning!"
--- --- --- --- ---
After defeating Rota, and proving his own worth to himself...Krillin's 'hunger' was gone...as a martial artist he had become...
[Fast forwarding through the fight so far, Krillin failing to hit Johnathan, who reads his movements at every turn...]
Satisfied.
[Krillins earlier thoughts]
("This time...I couldn't just say 'I'll definitely win' ...")
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[The Present...]
Announcer: "....8..."
So it was strange...
[Krillin's body slowly rises onto his feet...]
That he was able to get up in this moment.
[...]
("Just because...I can't come out and say I will win...")
("Doesn't mean I intend to lose!!")
[...]
Johnathan: "There you go, I may have hit you hard...but don't think you're out of this for even a moment."
[Krillin's fists slowly raise...]
"P-Put-t...Mm up..."
[Johnathan smirks...And raises his hands...]
Announcer: "After one of the most brutal knockdowns yet, the monster monk is back uuuup!!!"
"The match continues!!"
[Even Johnathan's students are surprised, some trying not to look at Krillins current state...]
?: "W-W-What was that...?"
??: "I think he started that in the last match..."
???: "One of sensei's...secret techniques?"
??: "He really didn't hold back at all..."
--- --- --- --- ---
"...6..."
[Krillin can't even hear the count...his brain swimming in the stages in crater...]
[As he looked into the sky, the white of the clouds swirled into the blue sky like their were two liquids swirling down a drain...]
"Stand..."
--- --- --- --- ---
[Flashback...]
[ ~ Unknown Master - Kame-sennin ~ ]
"Alright, stand up..."
[Camera goes over to a dirt field, numerous lines tilled in it...]
[At the end of a line in progress, Krillin was collapsed face first.]
[He still wore his Orin Temple gi at this point...]
[He twitches, and starts to stand...]
[He lifts up dirty, scraped, practically bleeding hands]
"Yooww-ow-ow...."

Prediction
Arashi: ("I...I really thought it was over...")
("Whatever happens now...You did good Krillin...")
"You're a real man!!"
--- --- ---
[Krillin starts running forward as best he can...]
Krillin: "Haaaahh...!!!"
Krillin HP 3
Johnathan HP 78
[Johnathan follows suit, running forwards himself, still smirking.]
[Johnathan's body lowers as he approaches, And his arm swings upwards for an uppercut!!]
[But it zooms right through Krillin's head...]
[Johnathan is actually surprised.]
[The phantom image of Krillin dissipates...]
Announcer: "Another double!!"
Johnathan burns another AP (2 -> 1) to attempt a Basic Physical Attack, but Krillin reacts with his Zanzoken, causing a miss!! (AP 2 -> 1/KP -14 63 -> 49)
[Johnathan's head turns slightly however, Krillin hadn't gotten very far after leaving the image...]
--- --- ---
Shaya: "He can still pull that off!?"
Markus: "Even after all that damage, he's still raring to go!!"
--- --- ---
Although the truth was...
---
[From Krillin's perspective, the entire world is a blur around him...He hadn't seen properly even seen Johnathan's attack...]
He had simply trusted in his instincts, and that his own body would carry him properly...
[Johnathan's foot slams into the ground, as he whirls around...the Familiar glow of his Eagle's Fist coming over him..as he races after Krillin!!]
In response to a sudden intent coming from Johnathan, Krillin seemed to simply react...
[...]
[An entire crowd of Krillin's appeared before Johnathan]
While really...
[Johnathan's eyes dart between the copies...]
He attempted to predict the eagles prediction!!
[Johnathan continued his charge at where he suspected Krillin might be....and threw his blow in response...only striking dead air.]
[With a smirk. he retracted his hand, his aura once again dissipating..]
Johnathan burns his final AP (1 -> 0) to attempt his Eagle's Fist once again (KP -22 54 -> 32, but Krillin reacts with his Zanzoken, causing another miss!! (Krillin AP 1 -> 0/ KP -14 49 -> 35)
[Camera zooms out from Johnathan's smirk, Krillin behind him...]
[His arms are dropped, as he pants for breath...]
[The entire crowd roars at the second face off between Eagle's Fist and Zanzoken.]
"WOOOOOO!!!"
Turn End!
Round 3, end!

[Where their fists exploded.]
[And...]
Orin Combo
Orin Combo
[Immediately both volleys begin at different points, parrying the others blows and attempting their own...]
Was Johnathan's Orin Combo weaker due to its being a copy of the original?
Was the quality of Krillin's lowered due to his physical state?

[He took off running at Johnathan...]
Johnathan's turn!
[Johnathan's body lowers once more as he waits for Krillin's approach....When Krillin is about to reach him..he suddenly lunges forwards! His arm shoots upwards, slamming into Krillin's jaw in an uppercut!!]
Announcer: "Krillin charges, but its his head who goes flying back!!"
Johnathan attacks Krillin with a Basic Physical Attack, inflicting taking 11 damage!! (HP 15 -> 4)
[Following up immediately...Johnathan launches a straight with his other arm!!]
[Krillin manages to move just in time, moving only inches away from where his latest phantom image was left, Johnathan's fist once again scraping past his cheek...]
Johnathan burns an AP (1 -> 0) for a Basic Physical Attack, and Krillin reacts with his Zanzoken (KP -14 33 -> 19/AP 5 -> 4), causing a miss

[The ring rattles somewhat...]
[Pant...pant]
Krillin uses his turn to Rest yet again! (HP +5 4 -> 9/KP +5 19 -> 24/ AP +1 4 -> 5)

Krillin Vs Johnathan - Winner
[Krillin twists, bringing Johnathan back, before throwing him forward...!!]
[Johnathan's body flies forwards...Though he tries to move...it's no use, his feet are off the ground..and he's already Soared over the edge of the arena...]
[From his perspective...the world seems to slow down as he realizes...]
Johnathan: "(...It's no use....I'm beyond recovery range at this point...)"
"(...Heh...")
("I already got what I wanted here..you know, losing at this stage...isn't so bad...)"
[He closes his eyes...feeling a moment of ease...Before...]
--- --- ---
[Images of the fighter's he'd seen flash in Johnathan's mind....Images of everything he'd taken in...images of his battle with Nam...]
[With how much he'd grown...This whole journey had been well worth it...But one image stuck out in his mind..]
"Nam: "So...were you fighting for more then you let on?"
Johnathan: ("Fighting....for more..?")
[The image in Johnathan's mind changes...to when he lay beside an unconscious Nam...]
"Johnathan: ("Amazing...simply amazing...")
("Well...you've given me what i wanted...so...if i win...")
[Looks back up at the sky.]
--- --- --- --- ---
[That last line echoes in Johnathan's mind...]
Johnathan: ("...I can't..after saying that to you...")
("I can't lose here!!!")
[As Johnathan feels a new will burn within...his eyes open...]
[And both glow a dim violet...before Johnathan's body blurs...and seemingly disappears...]
Krillin: [Eyes widen...]
[Eyes dart left...]
[And right...]
[...]
Krillin: [Quickly turns around---]
[There Johnathan was waiting, as a foot slammed into Krillin's stomach...]
Johnathan makes a Basic Physical Attack on Krillin, inflicting 11 damage!
--- --- --- --- ---
Announcer: "After an intense final push..."
"Krillin has been knocked out of the ring!!"
[As Johnathan's leg lowers...his normal stoic expression turns to one...of confusion? and..he looks down at his hands...]
Johnathan: "...What did....what was..."
"Dojo Instructor" Johnathan...
--- --- ---
"SENSEI!!!"
[The crowd of students push through the rest...Containing themselves no longer...]
"Don't scare us like that!!"
?: "We really thought you might lose!!"
??: "But their wasn't any chance of that, right!!?"
[Johnathan turns to them..still seemingly confused...]
"..I...well..."
"...Well...Yes, there was a chance..Krillin fought well..."
[Students all look shocked]
"W-Why are you s-s-suddenly..."
"Smiling!?"
Moves on...
Johnathan: "...?"
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
Arashi: "..."
"..."
[The boy never broke his silence.... and yet his actions spoke more than loud enough.]
[Arashi jumped from the hall's roof and straight for Krillin's unconscious body]
"...grrr..."
[Jewel watches as he jumps down from besides her, frowning...]
---
Markus "Oh no, Arashi's gone quite. That's never a good. Krillin was his new friend right?"
Shaya "Calm down, let him be. Arashi knows better than to lose it public. Although..."
---
[Arashi squated down and picked Krillin up.]
[Arashi began a silent march towards the medical room]
[Only stopping once next to Johnathan.]
[Only to continue walking away after shooting the warrior one last look.]
Announcer: "S-Sir..."
"Your match is..."
[Arashi keeps walking]
Announcer: "..."
[Nods in understanding...]
[Arashi walks through the halls and on his way he looks down at Krillin.]
Arashi: "Mom and Dad are probably gonna yell at me for that later...."
"'Be a good sport Arashi.'"
"'Real champions take their losses like champions.'"
"'A real man's worth is shown in the face of failure!'"
"Jeez, I get it."
[...]
[Krillin doesn't make a sound...]
"Of course I know thats the right thing to do...but how can I stay calm when you're out there giving everything? I'm your second aren't I ?!"
[Though he never stopped Arashi's place seemed to get slower...]
"So why couldn't I think of anything that could've helped you win?!"
[...]
Arashi "They told me fighting was dangerous and I could get really hurt one day, but they never told me..."
"Watching your pal fight could hurt way more."
"You did your best man but just hang in there. You can still gets stronger . . . I know it."
[Johnathan's body flies forwards...Though he tries to move...it's no use, his feet are off the ground..and he's already Soared over the edge of the arena...]

Rose and Giran II / Rose and Son Gohan
[...]
[Turning back the clock a bit...]
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
[The Infirmary...]
[Rota and Rika...]
[Rota soon turns, and leaves with Jewel...]
...shut...
[The doors close behind them...]
[A few moments pass, before the door opens up then shuts again.]
Click...
[The sound of heels on the floor sound off for a few steps, before the person is revealed to be Rose.]
[Within the room, still sleeping in addition to Rika, was Makushita and Nam...]
[Not only them, actually...]
[Son Gohan was seemingly out on a bed of his own, a inebriated blush somehow coming through his mask...]
[...]
[Some pudding had been left for any awoken patients to try...]
[Two hands scooped up the entire tray...]
[Now awake...was...]
Giran: "Lelelelele, LE!"
"Guess the puddings all mine!!"
[Jumps back into bed.]
"Never had this much pudding to myself without having to share with any damn siblings!!"
[Downs one like a shot glass]
For reference, Giran grew up in a household of 13...
This isn't particularly normal for the Giras, its actually pretty weird.
Giran: [Downs another pudding, before turning head]
"It's...you..."
[Looks at Rose]
[...]
"You really pulled one over on me earlier, huh!? BAHAHAHA!!!"
"Didn't see nothin coming!!"
[Rose is holding up a drink to her mouth, it seems she's out of cigs....]
"You seem to be...active."
"You've recovered quite a bit in such a short time...after what I put you through..."
"Ahh, don't worry about us Giras, we recover twice as fast as you squishy types. Still hurts though!!" [Pats his chest, where Rose had struck...]
"Though...you're...not so squishy...and kinda strong..."
Rose: "I wouldn't say that. Durable, maybe, but strong? That's incorrect."
Giran: "N-No...You're definitely strong!!" [Suddenly defensive]
"Otherwise I couldn't have lost to you!!"
Rose: [takes a sip] "I suppose you could say I'm strong up here..." [points at her head] "Rather than in my body as a whole..."
"Considering that's how you lost..."
Giran: "..."[Lifts pudding trey, downing another...]
"...So you used a headbutt?"
Rose: [Takes a few steps forward.] "No, I used my intellect..."
Giran: [Distracted, imagining himself and Rose headbutting...]
"Yeah...I totally get it..."
Rose: "In any case, I have an offer for you."
Giran: [Eyesbrows raise..]
"Oh..."
"You can just have a pudding if you want.."
[The rubbing of the head shifts somewhat]
("Even though sharing totally sucks...She's pretty strong...I don't mind this time...")
Rose: "Hmm, i'd love to, but you seem to be enjoying it."
[She takes a few steps towards the wall, before turning to lean against it.]
"Besides...Abaara would be angry if I had any sweets without her..."
Giran: "Suit yourself..."
[...]
Rose: "What was your goal, entering this tournament...?"
Giran: [Tosses pudding glass over shoulder]
"To smash some people. Probably make some prize money doing it, since I'm all but guaranteed to make it to the en---"
[Realizes he already lost in the first round...]
Rose: "Hmm..."
"Do you like to fight?"
"Or just to smash things...?"
"To fight...or...to smash?"
[...]
[...]
[...]
Rose:
"Uh...Sure, fighting's good to...."
"As long as you're winning, its the same...'
[Leans back...]
"I'dalmost never lost a 'fight' before today...You're mostly the first person I didn't just smash ..."
[Stares at pudding, blanking out somewhat...]
Rose: "So you just like to win? Not really just for sport, then?"
Giran: "...Its not really about getting the win...but when I am winning..."
"The other person breaks, just like my demolition work. That's what's so much fun, the feeling of something breaking, and knowing its your overwhelming muscle that did it!!"
"That feeling is the best!!"
Rose: "Oh? Well that's an interesting viewpoint."
[she lifts her hand up to her chin,]
"I wanted to offer you...somewhat of a job, not knowing for sure if you already had some sort of occupation."
"One where you could smash things to your hearts content...Or at least...try."
Giran: "Try...?"
"I'm the demolition expert, 'Kaiju' Giran!!"
"I can smash anything!!"
Rose: "Anything? We'll have to put that to the test..."
"If you accept my offer, that is..."
"If you do though...I might even let you play with my daughter. She's definitely stronger than me. (In certain aspects...)"
"Anyway...What's the job?"
Rose: "It's nothing to difficult. I've wanted to study a Giras for a while, but never really had the chance...."
"Though the smashing is part of the job."
"Probably all kinds of things."
"We'll really be testing out that claim of yours..."
Giran: "All kinds of things..." [Starts to drink a pudding in thought...]
Rose: "There may be a few fights as well. Aside from that, I can pay you in either money or food."
Giran: "Sounds good..."
Rose: "You seem uninterested."
Giran: "You just did a lot of talking is all..." [wipes mouth]
"So when do I start?"
Rose: [Stands from the lean, she takes a few steps towards Giran.] "How about...now?" [She holds out her hand as if to handshake.]
Giran: "Huh? Now?"
[Giran's giant hand does takes Rose's]
"Whaddya mea--"
Rose: [Smiles, shaking]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n15ipqHseHk
Giran:
[The pudding tray he held in his opposite hand clangs to the ground...]
smashsmashsmash
[The numerous pudding glasses left all shattered...contents spreading out into a pool...]
[Giran was gone...]
Rose: [Smile fades for a bit, into somewhat of a confused face.] "..."
[Rose shakes her head, snapping back to herself, looking towards the other people in the infirmary.]
"No one here would really make for great test subjects. Not like Giran does..."
[She turns her head to Son Gohan.]
("...He's definitely the most problematic person in this tournament...")
Son Gohan: [Stirring from the sound of the tray...]
[Sits up somewhat...adjusting crooked mask]
[Sees Rose]
"Oh...I must still be dreamin...Ehehe...."
Rose: "You would dream of me, old one...?"
[Her eyes soften slightly]
Son Gohan: "Definitely a dream all right..."
"I'd better make this visit count..."
[DANGER]
Rose: "...You're highly intoxicated... I don't think you should get out of---"
Whoosh...
[In an instant, the old man was already up to Rose with a , "heh heh heh...", the blush showing brightly from under that mask.]
[And he was...]
Rose: "..."
[...]
[A pair of eyes bulge out of Gohan's mask...]
Rose:
[At this moment, the double doors handles rattle, as someone fails to open...]
Nurse: "...Hello? These doors aren't suppose to be locked..."
Son Gohan: "Interrupted already!?"
("The best dreams always end to soon...")
[Ceases gropage]
Rose: [A somewhat dastardly idea comes to her mind...for a moment.]
Click...
[Using her key, a nurse gets the door open...]
[Numerous other medical people were arriving with her...]
??: "What's going on in here!?"
Rose: "Oh, I'm terribly sorry. I must have locked the door by accident when I closed it..."
[Image of the door: It's a push-button doorknob.]
Son Gohan: ("...Really going all out, huh dream?")
[Waves hand]
"Yes, yes...just an accident...Nothing going on in here."
[Workers all eye the drunk man...]
???: "Except you've gone and made a mess..."
[All the glass and pudding...]
????: "You're only here because you had a few to many, so don't go ruining the other patients rest!! Behave yourself!!"
[Shoves finger in Gohan's face angrily.]
Son Gohan: "Y'know, I'm starting to think this isn't a dream..."
????: "..." [Stares at Gohan]
Son Gohan: "Oh...OHHH!!!"
[...]
[Casually walks passed Rose...Totally casually...Hoping she didn't say anything...]
Rose: [All the while has been watching the old man. Watching the guards he has placed even in his drunken state; attempting to access the points he doesn't defend subconsciously.]
[She gives a smirk, as she can see them clearly now...all of the points she could use to exploit...]
"I see..."
"...By the way..." [She turns to one of the nurses] "...Isn't it a bad thing when a man touches your chest...?"
Son Gohan: [hand on doorknob]
[Looks back]
[Nurses clipboard breaks in their hands...]
????: "Why would you have to ask such a thing...?"
[Turns head slowly towards Son Gohan, neck audibly creaking]
Rose: [Stares at Gohan,] "Well that Giran guy was kind of mad about me beating him in our match. I came in here to check on Rika, when he pinned me to the wall."
"He ended up touching my chest, squeezing it a few times before that old man scared him off!"
??: "Oh my..."
???: [Holds arms, terrified...]
????: [Looks back at Gohan]"Is this true?"
Son Gohan: "Something...like that..."
Rose: "Well, I suppose there wasn't any real harm done." [She smiles, walking towards Gohan] "Come on, jiji. Lets take a walk, there's something I need to talk to you about..."
Gohan:
"Sure..."
[Dabs his sweaty...mask]

[Rose is holding up a drink to her mouth, it seems she's out of cigs....]
"You seem to be...active."
"You've recovered quite a bit in such a short time...after what I put you through..."
"Ahh, don't worry about us Giras, we recover twice as fast as you squishy types. Still hurts though!!" [Pats his chest, where Rose had struck...]
"Though...you're...not so squishy...and kinda strong..."
Rose: "I wouldn't say that. Durable, maybe, but strong? That's incorrect."
Giran: "N-No...You're definitely strong!!" [Suddenly defensive]
"Otherwise I couldn't have lost to you!!"
Rose: [takes a sip] "I suppose you could say I'm strong up here..." [points at her head] "Rather than in my body as a whole..."
"Considering that's how you lost..."
Giran: "..."[Lifts pudding trey, downing another...]
"...So you used a headbutt?"
Rose: [Takes a few steps forward.] "No, I used my intellect..."
Giran: [Distracted, imagining himself and Rose headbutting...]
"Yeah...I totally get it..."
Rose: "In any case, I have an offer for you."
Giran: [Eyesbrows raise..]
"Oh..."
"You can just have a pudding if you want.."
[The rubbing of the head shifts somewhat]
("Even though sharing totally sucks...She's pretty strong...I don't mind this time...")
Rose: "Hmm, i'd love to, but you seem to be enjoying it."
[She takes a few steps towards the wall, before turning to lean against it.]
"Besides...Abaara would be angry if I had any sweets without her..."
Giran: "Suit yourself..."
[...]
Rose: "What was your goal, entering this tournament...?"
Giran: [Tosses pudding glass over shoulder]
"To smash some people. Probably make some prize money doing it, since I'm all but guaranteed to make it to the en---"
[Realizes he already lost in the first round...]
Rose: "Hmm..."
"Do you like to fight?"
"Or just to smash things...?"
"To fight...or...to smash?"
[...]
[...]
[...]
Rose:
"Uh...Sure, fighting's good to...."
"As long as you're winning, its the same...'
[Leans back...]
"I'd
[Stares at pudding, blanking out somewhat...]
Rose: "So you just like to win? Not really just for sport, then?"
Giran: "...Its not really about getting the win...but when I am winning..."
"The other person breaks, just like my demolition work. That's what's so much fun, the feeling of something breaking, and knowing its your overwhelming muscle that did it!!"
"That feeling is the best!!"
Rose: "Oh? Well that's an interesting viewpoint."
[she lifts her hand up to her chin,]
"I wanted to offer you...somewhat of a job, not knowing for sure if you already had some sort of occupation."
"One where you could smash things to your hearts content...Or at least...try."
Giran: "Try...?"
"I'm the demolition expert, 'Kaiju' Giran!!"
"I can smash anything!!"
Rose: "Anything? We'll have to put that to the test..."
"If you accept my offer, that is..."
"If you do though...I might even let you play with my daughter. She's definitely stronger than me. (In certain aspects...)"
"Anyway...What's the job?"
Rose: "It's nothing to difficult. I've wanted to study a Giras for a while, but never really had the chance...."
"Though the smashing is part of the job."
"Probably all kinds of things."
"We'll really be testing out that claim of yours..."
Giran: "All kinds of things..." [Starts to drink a pudding in thought...]
Rose: "There may be a few fights as well. Aside from that, I can pay you in either money or food."
Giran: "Sounds good..."
Rose: "You seem uninterested."
Giran: "You just did a lot of talking is all..." [wipes mouth]
"So when do I start?"
Rose: [Stands from the lean, she takes a few steps towards Giran.] "How about...now?" [She holds out her hand as if to handshake.]
Giran: "Huh? Now?"
[Giran's giant hand does takes Rose's]
"Whaddya mea--"
Rose: [Smiles, shaking]
Giran:
[The pudding tray he held in his opposite hand clangs to the ground...]
smashsmashsmash
[The numerous pudding glasses left all shattered...contents spreading out into a pool...]
[Giran was gone...]
Rose: [Smile fades for a bit, into somewhat of a confused face.] "..."
[Rose shakes her head, snapping back to herself, looking towards the other people in the infirmary.]
"No one here would really make for great test subjects. Not like Giran does..."
[She turns her head to Son Gohan.]
("...He's definitely the most problematic person in this tournament...")
Son Gohan: [Stirring from the sound of the tray...]
[Sits up somewhat...adjusting crooked mask]
[Sees Rose]
"Oh...I must still be dreamin...Ehehe...."
Rose: "You would dream of me, old one...?"
[Her eyes soften slightly]
Son Gohan: "Definitely a dream all right..."
"I'd better make this visit count..."
[DANGER]
Rose: "...You're highly intoxicated... I don't think you should get out of---"
Whoosh...
[In an instant, the old man was already up to Rose with a , "heh heh heh...", the blush showing brightly from under that mask.]
[And he was...]
Rose: "..."
- Spoiler:
[...]
[A pair of eyes bulge out of Gohan's mask...]
Rose:
[At this moment, the double doors handles rattle, as someone fails to open...]
Nurse: "...Hello? These doors aren't suppose to be locked..."
Son Gohan: "Interrupted already!?"
("The best dreams always end to soon...")
[Ceases gropage]
Rose: [A somewhat dastardly idea comes to her mind...for a moment.]
Click...
[Using her key, a nurse gets the door open...]
[Numerous other medical people were arriving with her...]
??: "What's going on in here!?"
Rose: "Oh, I'm terribly sorry. I must have locked the door by accident when I closed it..."
[Image of the door: It's a push-button doorknob.]
Son Gohan: ("...Really going all out, huh dream?")
[Waves hand]
"Yes, yes...just an accident...Nothing going on in here."
[Workers all eye the drunk man...]
???: "Except you've gone and made a mess..."
[All the glass and pudding...]
????: "You're only here because you had a few to many, so don't go ruining the other patients rest!! Behave yourself!!"
[Shoves finger in Gohan's face angrily.]
Son Gohan: "Y'know, I'm starting to think this isn't a dream..."
????: "..." [Stares at Gohan]
Son Gohan: "Oh...OHHH!!!"
[...]
[Casually walks passed Rose...Totally casually...Hoping she didn't say anything...]
Rose: [All the while has been watching the old man. Watching the guards he has placed even in his drunken state; attempting to access the points he doesn't defend subconsciously.]
[She gives a smirk, as she can see them clearly now...all of the points she could use to exploit...]
"I see..."
"...By the way..." [She turns to one of the nurses] "...Isn't it a bad thing when a man touches your chest...?"
Son Gohan: [hand on doorknob]
[Looks back]
[Nurses clipboard breaks in their hands...]
????: "Why would you have to ask such a thing...?"
[Turns head slowly towards Son Gohan, neck audibly creaking]
Rose: [Stares at Gohan,] "Well that Giran guy was kind of mad about me beating him in our match. I came in here to check on Rika, when he pinned me to the wall."
"He ended up touching my chest, squeezing it a few times before that old man scared him off!"
??: "Oh my..."
???: [Holds arms, terrified...]
????: [Looks back at Gohan]"Is this true?"
Son Gohan: "Something...like that..."
Rose: "Well, I suppose there wasn't any real harm done." [She smiles, walking towards Gohan] "Come on, jiji. Lets take a walk, there's something I need to talk to you about..."
Gohan:
"Sure..."
[Dabs his sweaty...mask]
