Diana frowned, certainly having expected more from her adversary. She knew he was capable of more however he was holding back whilst she had no such qualms and had gone in all guns blazing. 'Come on Goku, I know that's not enough to finish you off.' mused the God of War, watching the area he had fallen into. A few bubbles disturbed the calm surface of the ocean, catching Diana's attention. She put her guard up, preparing for an attack from Goku. With her keen eyesight she noticed a growing golden light getting larger as it neared the surface. 'Could it be?' she questioned, getting hopeful that the spar could continue.
With a loud crash and in a blaze of golden light, the downed Saiyan God made his presence known. A blazing golden aura encompassed his frame, eyes turquoise with a hard look having replaced the usual playful twinkle to them. He stood straight, eyes bulging with rage, and stared at his opponent.
"So! Finally decided to get serious?" enquired Diana as she smirked, feeling the excitement rushing through her once more. She could not deny that he looked threatening; the hard-turquoise eyes, golden hair that spiked as if refusing to bow to the laws of gravity, and the glow surrounding his body. However, she raised an eyebrow, surprised to watch as he released his transformed state; hair and eyes reverting to their normal shade of black. "Do you deem me unworthy of your Super Saiyan power?"questioned a perturbed Wonder Woman, curious as to why he released his powered-up state.
"That's not it, I want to test your power in my base form." Goku followed up his response by sinking into a different stance, however it looked familiar to Diana, causing her eyes to widen slightly. "Is that…"
"Your own stance? Why yes, it is." quipped Goku, showcasing his uncanny ability and talent for learning fighting styles rather quickly.
"Well let's try this one more time then." Diana flew forwards, pulling her hand back to throw a punch. Goku fell into a quick defensive stance as Diana threw her punch. The silent, serious universe hopper ducked under it. Before Goku could even register the dodge, however, another body shot, this one to his ribs, sent fresh ripples of pain through his torso. "Gah!"exclaimed the Saiyan, his eyes bulging and breath hitching in his throat. He did not fall, he made sure he did not fall… but it was a lot closer than he would have liked.
"Damn it Goku fight seriously already!" roared Wonder Woman, the frustration at Goku seemingly holding back against her building up. "Show me that power you're hiding."Diana knew of the great strength Goku held and she could not deny the fact that she itched to test her abilities and current strength against his full power. It certainly was not every day that someone capable of matching her challenged her to a fight.
With a resigned sigh Goku relented. "Fine then, you want my full power. Well you can have it." hunching over, the Saiyan God clenched his hands into fists before he begun to scream, drawing his latent power to the surface. His clear aura exploded violently into life, causing a powerful wave of air to be expelled in all directions. Diana crossed her arms to block the wave, easily dispelling it. She watched as his aura violently increased in size with flashes of red mixing with the white, creating flashes of maroon illuminating the water's surface. Goku's scream increased in volume, his aura increasing in size once more.
"Goku that's enough!" pleaded Diana as she attempted to quell the screaming Saiyan over the roar of the wind his aura was producing, yet the storm raged on. The once calm surface of the ocean was now shaking violently, large waves spreading in all directions from directly beneath him. The Amazon watched as Goku's gi top seemingly vanish leaving his muscled chest on view. Littered with small scars, Diana could not prevent her eyes from roaming and taking in the chiselled muscles. There was something impressive about how sculptured it was, not an ounce of fat to be seen, an enigma considering the vast amounts of food she had personally witnessed disappear within his void of a stomach.
His vocals increased in volume as thick maroon fur began to sprout over his chest and arms. Goku's hair increased in length, falling to the small of his back with two pieces on either side of his neck. He seemingly increased in height, considering how he was towering over his female adversary, when previously she held the advantage in height. Goku closed his mouth, killing his aura whilst calming the gale winds. He opened his eyes, revealing dark orbs with red shadow trim surrounding them.
"So? Is that your full power now?" enquired Diana, noting the change in weather allowing her to voice her thoughts. She tried so hard not to quiver, his sheer aura threatening to bring her to her knees however she clenched her fists and held on.
"Not entirely. Anymore and I would have shaken the entire planet" His voice was deeper, sending small electrical shivers down the length of Diana's spine. Although it still held a hint of his playful tone. Goku completed a few quick stretches as he limbered up, before getting serious once more. "Are you…" began Goku before cutting himself midsentence to look away from Diana towards the distance.
Diana noted his sudden silence, and became curious"Is everything okay Goku?"
"I can sense Mary's energy. She's awake." responded Goku, a smile gracing his features. "Don't know where she is going though?" mused Goku, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.
"Doubt she's up to any good." continued Diana, already thinking the worst considering her evil counterpart's past actions, however deep down she wished it was nothing so that Goku would stay with her and not go to her counterpart.
"That may be true, I'll have to stop her before she does something she'll regret." added the Saiyan, a small frown evident on his features. He was certain that she would not do anything evil, but he was not exactly confident in it happening anytime soon since Vegeta had taken a while to shed his evil tendencies. "Be right back!" stated Goku, placing his forefinger and middle finger to his forehead, phasing out of sight leaving Diana alone.
"Goku wait!" but alas her plea fell on deaf ears as he was gone by the time, she finished her request. "Let me come along…" she muttered dejectedly before sighing, causing her to realise that she had been holding a sizeable chunk of air in her lungs. Her stomach fluttered and rolled like there were butterflies contained within it. She suddenly felt alone, missing the presence of Goku, the sound of the wind becoming her sole companion amidst the silence of the sea.
Her earpiece vibrated, signifying an incoming call. Pressing a finger delicately to it caused her to accept the call. "Hello?" she spoke, eyes gazing into the horizon. Her voice sounding low and emotionless to her.
"Diana?"
