Chapter 61 - Episode 33: (Son Goku Saga) She's Here! The Mighty Twin Lilith

Dragon Ball – Scene 33.0: Earth, Southeastern Islands Area [Papaya Islands], Morning, May 7th, Age 750

 

Phase 7:

Nam Vs. Blade

 

Tournament Announcer:

And now, ladies and gentlemen, we continue…we continue to the third match. Contestant Nam vs. Contestant Blade!

 

Blade & Nam make their way to the arena with Blade staring at Nam discreetly and notices that everything that Pasta said to him & Mauka earlier is true due to Nam's stern demeanor. Meanwhile on Planet Brench, everyone is curious on how strong Blade is, but among Cooler's Inner Circle, they already know Blade's Power Level is close to Mauka's 250 which mean that he will beat Nam due to the Warrior from the Western Desert having a Power Level of 100. Meanwhile in the crowd, Nadia notices that Blade is not planning on going all out against Nam. Even though she knows both of their power levels are vastly different, the Hyena/Saiyan Hybrid feels that this isn't going to be as one-sided of a fight as everyone of her friends and her people in Planet Brench believe it will be. However Kei notices this too due her Vampyr senses since she's blind, her assumptions are mostly accurate due to her ability.

 

Blade now knows of Nam's Village, but he needs to understand the desert warrior's feelings through his fists as the Heir to Steel Corp bows courteously which surprises Nam as no one as shown him this level of respect he returns the favor. As soon as the Tournament Announcer begins the match, both Blade & Nam go at it with Nam blocking Blade's Punch with his forearm and counters the young man with a kick to the stomach, pushing Blade back with ease which shocks not only everyone in Planet Brench and Mauka's Friends, but Mauka herself as well with the exception of Nadia & Kei. Mauka can't believe that the only one on Earth that has beaten her multiple times in fights, got pushed back too easily by a scrawny man as she starts to feel anxious, angry and nervous that Mauka is afraid she will not fight Blade and publicly humiliate him in order to finally assert her superiority over him; if Blade loses to Nam, she can't do that and it's driving her crazy.

 

Blade clashes with Nam while holding back and the more the fight progresses, Mauka gets irritated the more & more seeing Blade "toying" with Nam, but in reality he is assessing if the warrior from the desert is the man he thinks he is. With each blow, Blade can tell the desperation, sorrow, adversity and duty Nam tasked himself to help his people that Blade sees him as noble to the point he just walk out of the ring as casually as someone that doesn't care winning the tournament. This shocks everyone as they see him, even more so when Blade says with a smile across his face that he needs to use bathroom badly that he can't hold it in anymore as he casually walks into the crowd like nothing is happening. Many in Planet Brench started booing, many of the females were swoon by his confidence even though he's weaker than them, while in Cooler's Throne Room, most there are furious on why Blade threw the fight which includes Dore & Neiz, but Cooler, Bonyu, Nion & Salza are amused as Blade did not behave like anyone they met before which quite refreshing. As for Goku, he sees Blade like a role model on how cool he is, meanwhile Yamcha is scared to see Mauka's Furious Aura that it appears she's using Kaioken x20 as she is planning on killing Blade after the tournament ends. Sensing Mauka's Bloodlust, Blade decides to hide at the food stands and eat an ice cream until the Saiyan Princess cools off as he plans on giving her some ice cream later; meanwhile Blade's Parents, Kei, and Nadia are laughing out loud at the situation with both Balmung & Sword going through nostalgia because of it. Both Nam & the Tournament Announcer were shocked to see this, but…

 

Tournament Announcer:

Contestant Nam has obtained victory by Contestant Blade's Self-Ring-Out!

 

Nam:

(Surprised)

Why did he throw his match? His strength is greater than mine. He could have won this tournament.

 

As everyone cheers and awaiting for the next match, dark clouds start to gather above Papaya Island as Goku will be facing off against his twin sister: Hanasia, better known by her Earth Name, Lilith.

 

Tournament Announcer:

So then, we will begin the fourth match! The skies are growing doubtful. There is no guessing what will happen, either with the weather or the developments of this next match! Contestant Son Goku versus Contestant Lilith! Now then, will both contestants please make your entrance!

 

===========================

 

Oolong:

(Excited)

All right! It's Goku's Turn!

 

Voidotte:

(Excited)

Yay! Goku-Chan!

 

(Teen) Bulma:

Is Lilith really Goku's Twin Sister?

 

Gine:

(Proud Smile)

Yes, she is my daughter and she is Goku-Chan's Twin. I wonder if her training under this Fanfan-San did her any good? Same question for Goku-Chan with Muten Roshi.

 

Master:

(Excited)

My Lily is the strongest girl in the entire world.

 

Kaiga:

(Annoyed)

I beg to differ! Mauka-Sama is the strongest!

 

Master:

(Annoyed)

My Lily will win the whole tournament!

 

Kaiga:

No! Mauka-Sama Will!!

 

Master:

Lily!

 

Kaiga:

Mauka-Sama!

 

Master:

Lily!!

 

Kaiga:

Mauka-Sama!!

 

Stockings:

(Hiding Murderous Intent Behind Stern Demeanor, Adjusting Glasses)

Knock…It…Off!

 

Kaiga, Master:

(Scared)

Sorry!!!

 

Nadia:

(Surprised, Whistle)

And here I thought Mauka-Chan could whip Kaiga into shape.

 

Stockings:

(Proud Smile, Blushing,Nervously Adjust Glasses)

If you're comparing me to Mauka-Chan, I'll take it as a compliment.

 

Gine:

Careful, Stockings-San. Your Pride is Showing…

(Amused Smile, Whispering)

…Your Saiyan Pride.

 

Miguel:

(Excited)

I'll be rooting for Lily.

 

Mark:

(Excited)

I'll join you!

 

Miguel:

(Smiling)

Thanks, Mark!

 

Mark:

(Blushing, Happy Smile)

 

Puar:

(Excited)

Hang in there for Yamcha-Sama's share as well!

 

As Goku & Lily enter the arena, the entire crowd cheer loudly seeing the 2 kids making it this far in this tournament besides Krillin, but unlike Krillin, they are facing one another instead against a teenager or an adult.

 

(Kid) Goku:

(Happy Smile)

Good day! I'm Son Goku!

 

(Kid) Lily:

(Happy Smile)

And I'm Lily!

 

===========================

 

(Teen) Bulma:

Good luck, you two!

 

===========================

 

Tournament Announcer:

Now then, match 4…

 

(Kid) Goku, (Kid) Lily:

(Excited Smile, Fighting Stance)

 

Tournament Announcer:

Beg—!

 

At that moment, thunder roars and the clouds started to rain, forcing the tournament to enter recess until the rain subsides; but Goku & Lily didn't care and were ready to fight, same for Stockings, Gine, Shiro, Nadia, Kei, Ina, Kaiga and Mauka as they wanted to see the Children of Bardock, the Next Generation of Saiyan Potential show off their power, but the Tournament Announcer asked them all to take a break until the rain stops and remembering the Saiyans love food, he told them that the restaurant is right now cooking the finest meal on the island. Upon hearing this, Goku & Lily's stomach growls upon hearing about food they quickly agree with the blonde man while everyone else is annoyed, but due to their Saiyan Biology, they can't help but to feel hungry as well, so they just head the restaurant and eat their fill which everyone around them were surprised to see them stuffing their faces without a care in the world, even Bulma couldn't believe seeing her foster mother, Stockings eating in such a manner similar when she started living with Bulma's Family when she arrived at their home and before refining her manners that she became a classy maid.

 

It was already passed noon and while eating at the restaurant, Blade shows up which makes a furious Mauka rush at him as soon as she saw him, but before she could punch him, Blade pulls out a beautifully crafted Banana Split decorated in a way that even people that hate ice cream, can't resist to grab it. Upon seeing this, Mauka stops in her tracks and starts eating the Banana Split like a happy carefree child that earned a reward and this irritates Kaiga seeing a lowly Earthling treating her beloved mistress like a mere child. The fight between Giran and the Monks of Orin Temple still take place, but unlike before, Giran was taken down by Nadia and handed him over to the police along with the Monks for disturbing the peace since they are not part of the tournament after losing in the preliminaries. After the rain stopped, everyone returned to the tournament grounds and unlike the original timeline where Goku decides to take a nap after eating his fill, Gine manages to get her twin children on time for their match.

 

Phase 8:

Son Goku Vs. Lilith

 

Tournament Announcer:

Thank you for waiting for so long! Now then, we will begin the long-awaited fourth match immediately! And so, will Contestant Son Goku and Contestant Lilith please make your entrance?

 

(Kid) Lily:

(Smiling)

Sorry for the wait y'all!

 

(Kid) Goku:

Thanks for waiting!

 

Tournament Announcer:

So then, begin the fourth match!

 

Audience:

(Loud Cheer)

 

The Saiyan Twins face-off and they are so excited that they don't wait who makes the first move as they clash right away, however since Lily still has her tail, she is stronger than Goku with a power level of 202 while Goku's Power Level is at 199.5 and has more techniques under her belt than Goku, taught to her by Mauka & Fanfan such as the Saucer Blade and finger beams similar to Dodon Ray & Galick Beam, but Lily only uses beam attacks when Goku decides to keep some distance from her. Goku tries to use his Kamehameha, but since he hasn't practice it enough, Goku can't fire it as fast as his sister's beam attacks which leaves him open for an attack from her. But what really makes her a very difficult opponent for Goku to fight is that Lily's Fighting Style is Capoeira, a martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics, music and spirituality, characterized by fluid movements performed in a circle called a roda. Lily's agility is too much for Goku to keep up, he knows he can't fight his sister upclose and he can't fight her from a distance, making this a very difficult battle for Goku. Suddenly when Lily's left roundhouse kick was about to connect on Goku's Face, his Tail grew back and tripped her right leg, causing her to fall. This annoyed Lily telling Goku he's cheating by having his tail hidden from everyone, but Goku says his tail was cut months ago however Lily calls him a liar, but their mother, Gine tells her from the crowd that their "Clan" regrows their tail 7 to 9 months after getting cut, so he did not lie. Annoyed, Lily look towards Mauka for confirmation and nods at Young Saiyan Girl. Angry by this, Lily decides to go all out, but unfortunately for her, Goku is now stronger because his tail growing back as his power level is now 205, three points higher than Lily and everyone that understand Power Levels in the Cold Empire, is that in a 3 Digit Power Level, 3 points can make a difference. Goku's strength not only got higher, but his stamina and dexterity also got a boost as well.

 

The battle continues, Goku now is able to keep up with Lily's Capoeira Style and Lily can't believe it as he was having a hard time keeping up with him earlier, but every other Saiyan there knows why: Goku's Tail. A Saiyan's Tail is one source of their power, when they lose their tail, they lose a few points but when it regrows, it gains a minor Zenkai Boost, but more than enough to turn the tides of battle when fighting someone around their same level of power. The crowd along with everyone of Goku & Lily's Friends and Family are cheering them on that they are on the edge of their seat while Mauka is torn and doesn't know who to cheer on for: The Saiyan Boy who she sees as a Brother or the Saiyan Girl she sees as a Sister. Nam stands next to her and smiles as he was in the same situation with the children of his village during competitions. The fight is a heated one and neither of them is backing down with Goku still having the upper-hand. Knowing that his twin is just as determined, Goku needs to beat her one of 2 ways: Ring-Out or Knock-Out with one of them exerting him to the point of losing his next match. Knowing that Lily received training from Mauka because of the Galick Beam, that means she might have also taught Lily how to fly, so the only way to win against her is to just knock Lily out. Goku had to be resort to the same tactics he usually used on Mauka which most only worked once on her; he manages to win by headbutting Lily as hard as he could and knocking her out, but his injuries were too much that he fell to the ground after he was declared the winner.

 

Tournament Announcer:

Oh, my! Contestant Son has won! Even so, what a surprise, finding out he has a tail that grows back around 7 to 9 months after it's cut!

 

===========================

 

(Teen) Bulma:

(Scared)

S-Son-Kun's tail has grown back! And Lily has one too!

 

Kei:

(Smiling)

You have nothing to worry about. Neither Goku nor Lily will not lose control with Mauka-Chan around.

 

Voidotte:

You believe so, Kei-San?

 

Nadia:

(Smiling)

Mauka is very resourceful. You know that as well as we do, Void-Chan.

 

Voidotte:

You're right! But Mauka-Chan won't be with Goku after the tournament.

 

Muten Roshi:

Do not worry. I plan on helping them through it.

 

Fanfan:

You do realize Mauka-Chan is my student, not yours.

 

Muten Roshi:

My plan will help Mauka-Chan with her own training as well. If you don't mind allowing Lily and my own students travel with them.

 

Fanfan:

What is this plan you thought of?

 

===========================

 

(Teen) Mauka:

Excuse me. I don't think we can continue the tournament today. Goku's injuries are a little rough. He won't be able to fight at full strength for his next match and the tournament will not get the same excitement they got just now.

 

Tournament Announcer:

Let me check with the others.

(Talks To The Tournament Organizers)

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Thinking)

Come On! These people can't be that heartless just for their tournament to be completed in a single day!

 

Tournament Announcer:

(Addressing The Audience)

Ladies and Gentlemen! Due to Son Goku's Injuries, we'll resume the tournament tomorrow. Whether his injuries are fully healed or not, we'll continue the proceedings.

(Whispering To Mauka)

I did my best help you and your brother out.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Whispering, Smiling)

Thank you.

 

Upon hearing this decision, Shiro is furious that he won't be fighting Mauka today, but he has waited years for the chance so waiting an extra day will not ruin his plans, so he lets it slide for now. With this turn of event, Goku will not see the Full Moon and will not transform into an Ozaru which in turn, Roshi will not destroy the moon with a Full-Powered Kamehameha. At Planet Brench, everyone got excited seeing the fight between Goku & Lily that they want to fight in a tournament too. Seeing this, Cooler understands how the people of his planet feels as he is feeling the same thing. Later that night, Mauka visits Lily in her room, but sees she's with her Foster Father and Gine which Mauka feels she's intruding, but since Gine is blind she notices Mauka's Ki…

 

Gine:

You don't need to leave, Hime-Sama. You are technically family after all.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Surprised)

Gine-San…

(Smiling)

…thank you.

 

(Kid) Lily:

(Pouting)

I can't believe I lost!

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Serious Expression)

Then what are you going to do about it?

 

(Kid) Lily:

I'll fight him again!

 

(Teen) Mauka:

How? You can't use the same strategy as today. He'll be anticipating it.

 

(Kid) Lily:

I'll find a way.

 

Gine:

(Giggles)

You will. You remind me of someone I used to know, Lily-Chan.

 

(Kid) Lily:

Who was like that, mama?

 

Gine:

(Warm Smile)

Me when I wanted your father to notice me.

 

Master:

What kind of man was your husband, Gine-San?

 

Gine:

Bardock was strong, to the point, too serious yet kind. In battle he was fierce and ruthless, but merciful when fighting someone he respects. In missions…he's not kind nor merciful as the mission took priority over his needs, but he would defend his comrades when the need arises.

 

(Kid) Lily:

(In Awe)

It's just like Ane-Ue told me.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Blushing)

See? You are just like your father, Bardock-Taichou, but you also have traits inherited from Gine-San like her smile and kindness.

 

Gine:

Thank you, Hime-Sama.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

I just came in to see how Lily was doing, but I was worried for nothing since she's a Saiyan. I'll check on Goku, but I bet he's fine like you. Enjoy your rest, Lily.

 

(Kid) Lily:

Ane-Ue?

 

(Teen) Mauka:

Yes, Lily?

 

(Kid) Lily:

Tonight's a Full Moon.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

Unfortunately we can't train our Ozaru Forms on this island. Too many innocent people.

 

Gine:

You are trying to master the 1o times power boost from that form?

 

(Teen) Mauka:

I had a talk with my grandfather, King Vegeta II in Hell with the help of a fortuneteller. I learned that there is a way to use that power in base form. Lily & Me are training to master that power and attain that ability. Our eyes filter the Blutz Waves, but if we accumulate enough it, we can become an Ozaru. Once in that form, we have Fanfan, Blade and his Parents to keep us in check. Sadly we can only do that training twice a month since the Full Moon on this planet only last 2 to 3 nights. Not enough time to master the Ozaru Form let alone finding a way to use its power in our base form.

 

Gine:

Have you ever tried creating a Power Ball?

 

(Teen) Mauka:

I don't know how to make one.

 

Gine:

You can make a Power Ball by combining ki with the planet's atmosphere in order to create a sphere of condensed Blutz Waves. Using this, you & Lily can achieve the Ozaru transformation anytime you wish. However, using the technique is very tiring, so it is primarily used as a last resort as many stated that they did not get the 10 times power boost. The Power Ball disappears after 90 minutes once summoned.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

I see. Maybe we can use the Power Ball in order to train our consciousness so we don't lose control of the form and during nights with the full moon, we train to understand how the flow of Ki works in the Ozaru Forms. Once we understand that, we'll be fine.

 

??? (Old Man Voice):

Forgive me from eavesdropping, but I couldn't help but to overhear what you say.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

How long you two have been there?

 

Muten Roshi:

I was heading to my room, but I spotted seeing you enter here.

 

Fanfan:

And I tried to stop him, but you started talking about your Ozaru Training.

 

Muten Roshi:

I already know about this power of theirs. Gohan told me all about it in his letters.

 

Fanfan:

Ah, yes. One of your two old students. So this is what you mean by sending Goku-Dono along with Mauka-Dono to train together. You want them to master this power so no one gets hurt in the long run.

 

Muten Roshi:

Gohan died because Goku couldn't control this power, so I want them to master it during their training once this tournament is over.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

Who do you think will win this tournament?

 

Muten Roshi:

Hard to say. You, Shiro & Goku are the strongest in the quarterfinal. However, if Goku's injuries inflicted by his sister aren't fully healed by tomorrow morning, he will have a hard time fighting that Nam fellow in the tournament.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

Nam has a power level of 100. Goku had double that. If he's fully healed, Goku's power level will be up 10 to 20 points minimum. But if he doesn't fully heal by tomorrow morning, his power level will be evenly matched with this Nam character.

 

Muten Roshi:

I see. Please excuse me. I have things to attend to.

 

Fanfan:

Allow me to accompany you…

(Sneer)

…Tangtong.

 

Muten Roshi:

(Furious)

I told you a thousand times not to call me that.

 

Fanfan:

(Giggling)

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Thinking)

Weird. I never seen Shisho behave like this around anyone. Looks like the old codger is really something special.

 

As Mauka heads to Goku's room, she sees the girls having fun with him and still calling him Mini-Bardock that everyone in the room is having fun. However, even though Mauka is happy they are having fun, she clears her throat, puts on her serious demeanor and enters the room looking annoyed, kicks everyone out saying they are disturbing Goku's healing and he needs to be at full strength tomorrow for the tournament as after she slams the door, she starts hugging and petting Goku like a dotting big sister and they stay in the room all night with the blinds on windows complete closed so Goku doesn't turn into an Ozaru.

 

The next morning, everyone returns to the tournament grounds to continue enjoying the festivities. As Mauka is getting ready to fight Shiro by warming up doing upright push-ups with the index finger of her right hand while her left hand is on her back; wondering if Wesker is behind this since Shiro was able to use a fighting style and techniques only she knows of and even Gine isn't aware of Mauka's techniques to teach it to anybody. The only one she can think of that is obsessed with her is none other than him as Mauka knows Wesker has been profiling her since they first met to the point of cloning her into abominations like the Tyrant Model used in Mount Paozu to the Ooze Model used at Kame House. She wonders if Wesker is very close in creating the perfect clone of her and as this thought courses through her mind, Mauka is both disgusted and excited about the idea: Disgusted, if the clone Wesker creates is another abomination and Excited, because if the clone turns out to be a Perfect Replica of her and if it is as strong as Shiro she believe he is, then she'll have the best fight of her entire life as she hopes this clone can cut ties with Wesker and be her Own Master.

 

Shiro takes a pair of aspirin as he is suffering from migraines for as long as he can remember, even before he was found & trained by his first teacher and his headaches is the reason for his violent tendencies, but he doesn't know why he feels like this: Was it an illness he inherited from his parents or something else…something worse. But one thing is definite for him: Killing Mauka might make his pain go away. Something deep within his subconscious is telling him to destroy her by a soft-spoken and charismatic sounding voice. Not having any other choice, Shiro is determined to kill Mauka even if he is disqualified and banned from the tournament, just to make the suffering from his migraines to go away forever. But after hearing Gine speak of Mauka like the daughter she never had, makes him second guess himself on killing Mauka as he feels that Gine, the only one that believe in him, will hate him if he does kill the Saiyan Princess. Not only Gine, but Pasta too as she not only wants to beat Mauka to prove Earthlings are stronger than Saiyans, but has told him she's grateful to the Saiyan Princess for making her chose a different path in life. Then there is also both the Gyumao and his daughter, Chichi as they have an interest in Goku to marry the Earthling Girl; killing Mauka might hurt their chances in marrying Chichi with Goku as he would blame them for the Saiyan Princess' Murder. So he is in-between a rock & a hard place: Save Himself From His Suffering Or Protect Everyone's Peace Of Mind? At that moment in the arena, the Tournament Announcer interviews Goku, Lily & Krillin…

 

Tournament Announcer:

It was true of Contestant Krillin from the first match. What on earth is the source of the strength of these three, who two of them wear the same Circle-turtle mark on their uniforms and the young lady is wearing a violet one with a swan mark? And so, now, before the semifinals begin, we are joined by Contestant Krillin, Contestant Goku & Contestant Lilith, and we would like to have an interview with these three. You three, congratulations in making it as far as you did, and despite being so small, you're absolutely amazing! Contestant Krillin, as I recall, was 13 years old. Contestant Son, Contestant Lilith. I am aware you're both twins, so your ages are the same, tell us, how old are you both?

 

(Kid) Goku:

(Confused, Points At Microphone)

What's this? Are you giving this to me?

 

(Kid) Krillin:

(Annoyed)

Dummy! That's a mike!

 

(Kid) Goku:

A bike?

 

(Kid) Krillin:

(Annoyed)

A mike!

 

(Kid) Lily:

(Smiling)

It's a device that makes your voice louder without raising your voice. Miguel uses it during her concerts at school.

 

Tournament Announcer:

(Laughing, Smiling)

Your gag just now was quite received.

 

(Kid) Krillin:

D-Don't embarrass us! All you have to do is answer the question!

 

(Kid) Goku:

The question?

 

(Kid) Lily:

Our age, Onii-Chan.

 

(Kid) Goku:

(Carefree Smile)

Ah, our age! Let's see…

(Counting With Fingers)

…9, 10, 11, 12…Got it!

(Carefree Smile)

We're twelve years old!

 

(Kid) Lily:

(Carefree Smile)

Yup-Yup!

 

(Teen) Bulma:

(Screaming Loudly, Furious)

HOLD IT!!! YOUR AMAZON OF AN OLDER SISTER TOLD US YOU ARE FOURTEEN!!!

 

(Kid) Goku:

Sis always told me my age, but she never taught me how to do math since she was always busy working around the house. But earlier, the Old-timer was teaching us math, right? He taught me how to count when Sis couldn't before. Since Sis was always there for me, I didn't bother to learn, but now that she's giving me the chance to be myself, I decided to learn math.

 

(Teen) Bulma:

I'M GOING TO KILL HER!!!

 

Stockings:

(Annoyed Stern Stare)

Calm down, Bulma!

 

(Teen) Bulma:

(Worried)

But Mom—!

 

Stockings:

The only "But" here will be a spanked one. Namely Yours if you don't calm yourself down this instant!

 

(Kid) Krillin:

That means your age is lower than mine!

 

(Kid) Goku:

(Patting Krillin's Head)

But Krillin, your height is lower than mine!

 

(Kid) Lily:

(Patting Krillin & Goku's Head)

You are both lower than me too!

 

Audience:

(Laughing & Cheering)

 

Tournament Announcer:

The youngest participants in the tournament are Contestant Son & his twin sister, Contestant Lilith, then? By the way, about those tails of yours—are they real tails?

 

(Kid) Krillin:

(Worried)

Yeah, about that—I remember it getting cut months ago. I can't be it's back. Besides, humans don't have tails!

 

(Kid) Lily:

It's real I tell you and mama already explained how long it takes to regrow them once it's cut.

 

(Kid) Krillin:

I remember, but I still don't believe it.

 

(Kid) Goku:

How about I show you?

(Takes Off Pants, Shows Tail)

You see? Yeah?

 

(Kid) Lily:

(Ashamed, Blushing, Covering Face With Both Hands)

O-O-ONII-CHAN!?!?!?

 

Audience:

(Surprise Expression Followed By Laughter)

 

(Kid) Krillin:

(Annoyed)

S-Stop that! You're a disgrace!

 

(Kid) Goku:

(Puts Pants Back On)

See? It's real, right?

 

(Kid) Krillin:

We know!

 

(Kid) Lily:

(Annoyed, Pouting)

Onii-Chan, Sukebe!

 

Tournament Announcer:

(Annoyed)

You three! You're not doing some routine on purpose here, right?

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Furious, Hiding Fury Behind Calm Composure But With Murderous Stare)

If they are, I will have words with all three of them. You understand, right? Ka…Ka…Rot…To? Ha…Na…Shia…Tan?

 

(Kid) Goku, (Kid) Lily:

(Scared Beyond Belief)

I'M SORRY, SIS!!!

 

===========================

 

Spectator (Male):

That's one scary older sister.

 

Oolong:

(Annoyed)

G-Goku may be strong, but his shameless character hasn't changed at all!

 

(Teen) Bulma:

Indeed, indeed!

 

Gine:

(Hiding Anger Behind Annoyed Smile, Ashamed, Blushing)

I will have to teach my unruly son some manners after the tournament. Especially that he will grow up as an adult one day and I refuse to have a delinquent for a son.

 

Stockings:

(Annoyed, Ashamed, Blushing)

I will join you if you don't mind. I also want to give a few words to Mauka-Chan on how she raised Goku-Chan so irresponsibly.

 

Gine:

Gladly.

 

===========================

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Maintaining Composure, Sweating, Thinking, Nervous)

Why do I sense a chill in the air?

 

Tournament Announcer:

Contestant Vanessa. Just the one I wanted to interview before your own match begins.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Out Loud, Regains Composure)

What you wanted to ask me?

 

Tournament Announcer:

Incidentally, all of you are wearing similar uniforms. Contestant Goku & Contestant Krillin. You, just like Contestant Yamcha are wearing Orange Uniforms. Contestant Vanessa & Contestant Lilith. You, just like Contestant Blade are wearing Violet Uniforms. Exactly which Dojos did you learn your fighting technique from?

 

(Kid) Krillin:

There wasn't any Dojo in particular. The one who trained us was Muten Roshi-Sama.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

And we were trained by the personal trainer of the Steel Corp Family, Fanfan-Sama.

 

Tournament Announcer:

(Surprised)

What's this!? Muten Roshi-Sama & Fanfan-Sama!?

 

Audience:

(Surprised)

(Male)—Muten Roshi, he said!

(Female)—And she said Fanfan!

(Male)—No wonder those kids are so incredible!

(Female)—Wait! Does that mean Vanessa is Blade-Sama's Fiancee!?

(Female)—I heard rumors that Blade-Sama was into someone that is as strong as him.

(Female)—Didn't the blue haired girl call Vanessa a Gorilla? If she's Blade-Sama's Fiancee, then I agree! She is a Gorilla!

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Thinking, Furious, Blushing)

DAMN YOU, BBBUUULLLMMMAAA!!! AND DAMN YOU, BLADE!!! BOTH OF YOU JUST PUT A BIG FAT TARGET ON MY BACK, YOU MORONS!!!

 

===========================

 

Watching from a distance on top of a rooftop with Bristle…

 

(Teen) Blade:

(Sneezes Hard 3 Times, Right Eye Twitching, Thinking)

 

(Teen) Bristle:

(Using Military-Grade Binoculars)

As my mother would say – "Sneezy, Sneezy! Achoo. Someone Special Is Thinking About You." Mauka-Chan must be really be pissed off at you. She's looking really crossed right about now.

 

(Teen) Blade:

It could be worse.

 

(Teen) Bristle:

How?

 

(Teen) Blade:

Mauka being an Ozaru while enraged.

 

(Teen) Bristle:

Can't believe she transformed into a Giant Ink Blue Ape. And don't get me started on Lily-Chan turning into a Rust Red One. I'm glad we had Miguel with us to sing them to submission. I don't think the combined might of you, your parents & Fanfan-San was going to be enough to stop 2 Raging Great Apes. And we couldn't cut off their tails without destroying all of their progress.

 

(Teen) Blade:

I wouldn't be able to live with the guilt if I did that to her.

 

??? (Male Voice):

So this is where you were hiding.

 

(Teen) Blade:

(Annoyed)

Oh…you. Hey, Yamcha.

 

(Teen) Bristle:

Yamcha—

 

(Teen) Yamcha:

(Annoyed)

Why Mauka-Chan chose you!?

 

(Teen) Blade:

Would you believe me if I told you everything?

 

(Teen) Yamcha:

Depends on what you say.

 

(Teen) Bristle:

(Annoyed Sigh)

Can we talk about this later? Mauka-Chan's match is coming up soon and the last thing you 2 want is to miss it.

 

They both tut in annoyance, pick up a pair of binoculars each and continue to watch the proceedings…

 

===========================

 

Tournament Announcer:

Y-You were trained by Muten Roshi-Sama & Fanfan-Sama, the ones they call the god of martial arts & the graceful empress?

 

(Kid) Krillin:

Yes. He said he was no longer taking any pupils, but he made a special exception.

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Defeated Sigh, Out Loud)

Since I am the Fiancee to the Heir of Steel Corp, I had to undergo martial arts training…

(Dominant Yet Angry Glare At Women In The Audience)

…A key requirement for BOTH the FUTURE Lord & Lady of the Household. And I chose Lily to be my Maid of Honor which by the family decree also MUST have martial arts training. Understand?

 

Audience (Female Members):

.......................................…

 

Tournament Announcer:

(Excited)

I-Incredible! Absolutely incredible! To think that these youngsters received their training from Muten Roshi-Sama & Fanfan-Sama! That explains why they are so uncommonly strong! Even so, that Muten Roshi-Sama should still be alive…!

 

Roshi:

(Falls On Ground In Surprised Among The Crowd, Annoyed)

HEY! SHOW SOME RESPECT TO YOUR ELDERS!!!

 

Tournament Announcer:

(Surprised)

Is that Munten Roshi-Sama & Fanfan-Sama I see!?

 

Muten Roshi:

You think I'd stay away from seeing the growth of my students firsthand!?

 

Fanfan:

Same for myself.

 

Tournament Announcer:

I see…

(Clears Throat)

At last, the semifinals! Contestant Vanessa, what do you think of your opponent, Contestant Shiro?

 

(Teen) Mauka:

(Annoyed Stare)

No Comment.

 

Tournament Announcer:

(Nervous Chuckle Followed By Clearing Of The Throat)

Contestant Shiro, please come forward!

 

Shiro enters the arena as he focus his full attention on Mauka and ignoring every one and every thing else as Mauka does the same.

 

Tournament Announcer:

Contestant Shiro has arrived! Now then, with no further ado…let the match begin!
