Dragon Ball Rings of Power

Chapter Ten: Piccolo and Pikhan

The Grand Kia summoned Piccolo and Pikhan to the Eternal Palace in the Other Dimension.

"Earth needs you help," the Grand Kia told them.

"Why dont you send Goku?" Piccolo questioned.

"Goku is not truly dead," the Grand Kia stated.  "He is actually just being held by Shenron in some other dimension."

"That makes us the next best choice, doesnt it?" Pikhan asked.

"Yeah.  Do well," the Grand Kia said as he sent them back to Earth.

*****

Lentra came up with an idea.  He split into three people.

"Multi-form, huh?" Gohan said.  "Hmmm."

"No, not Multi-form," Lentra replied sort of arrogantly.  "All three of me can hurt you, but you can only hurt the real me."

*****

The paralysis wore off.  Vegeta stood up.  He began to transform.  He went to Super Saiyan.  Then level two.  He stopped when he reached Super Saiyan Three.

"Now you will face the full fury of Prince Vegeta!"

*****

Cyba was still tearing himself up mentally.

I have done nothing but screw up in this fight, he thought to himself.  He cursed himself silently.  Okay, here comes the big gun.  He focused.  "Orange Ray!"  He threw all he had into the attack.

It hit Tratz.  Cyba thought he actually took Tratz out.  Then Tratz appeared right behind him.

"Nice try little scum," Tratz mocked.  "Too bad I will have to kill you.  Of course, you could tell me where the colony is, and I could make your end painless."

"Here's a better idea," Cyba said.  "Bite me."

"Insolent fool!" Tratz yelled in outrage.  "I will break you!  He began beating Cyba mercilessly.

*****

Gohan was getting knocked up.  Each of the Lentras was as strong as the original.  Then the cavalry arrived.

A gateway opened up in midair.  Piccolo and Pikhan stepped out of the portal.  Gohan noticed their halos.

"Piccolo!" Gohan said happily.

"Hey kid," Piccolo said.  "I understand that we have a problem here."

Pikhan spoke up next.  "You truly must be the son of Goku.  You show extreme power, just as he did."

"Thanks.  What do you say we take out the trash?"

"Sounds good to me," Piccolo said as he went into a fighting stance.

Lentra smirked.  "I just killed your clone not that long ago."

"My clone couldnt have been as strong as I am," he said.  "I've been under the most intense training over the last 8 years."

The three warriors each engaged combat with one of the Lentras.

*****

Cyba made a feeble attempt to knock Tratz back, with no success.

"Tell me!" Tratz demanded.

"You already have my answer," Cyba said defiantly.

Tratz grabbed him by the throat.  Then suddenly, Tratz felt a heavy blow connect with his back.  It was Vegeta.

"This kid is under my protection," Vegeta said with a smirk.  "You have no idea how much I am going to enjoy beating you into a pulp."

"Thanks Vegeta," Cyba said weakly.

"I only did it for Gohan," Vegeta spat.

*****

After a few minutes of fighting Pikhan backed off.  He took off his weighted clothes and threw them at Lentra.  Piccolo followed suit.

Pikhan powered up.  He ducked his upper body low and went to the right.  Then to the left.  Then he stood up and put his fist in the air.  "Thunder," He crossed his hands over his chest.  "Flash," He put his fists together out in front of him.  "Attack!"  Lightning came out of his fists first.  Then Lentra was assaulted with fire.

"Wrong one!"  Lentra said gleefully.

"Masenko Ha!" Piccolo fired his blast.  It hit.

"Still wrong!" Lentra said.

"Kyotenite!" (Pronounced Keye-oh-tin-eye-tee)  Gohan blasted the remaining Lentra.

"Ahhhh!" Lentra yelled in pain.  All three of them snapped back together.  "NO!"

*****

Vegeta and Tratz were fighting on the same level.  Vegeta fired a Super Saiyan Big Bang at Tratz.  The Big Bang failed.

"What the hell?" Vegeta yelled.

"My faithful E.A.s saved me," Tratz said.

*****

Piccolo flew up to Lentra.  He fought Lentra hand-to-hand.  Then Piccolo pulled out an unexpected trick.  He tore off Lentras right arm and threw it behind him.

Gohan noticed something.

The Rings! he shouted.  The arm had the hand that Lentra was wearing the rings on.  He dove after it.

*****

Tratz saw the arm as well.  He shoved past Vegeta.

"Get the hell out of my way, Saiyan Scum!" he yelled as he flew at his top speed.

Tratz reached Lentras dismembered arm before Gohan did.  He tore the rings off of Lentra's fingers.  He quickly put them on.  He could feel the rings molding to fight his fingers.

"Yes!" he shouted.  "I have ten of the rings!"  He tested his new power by kicking Gohan very hard.  Gohan fell.  All eyes moved to Tratz.

*****

Lentra made his way to Krillin.  Earlier, Lentra had watched Vegeta and Trunks eat senzu beans and get stronger.  He grabbed the bag and ate four of them.  He tied the bag on his belt.  This took some effort since he only had one arm.  He had to use his tail to help.  Then he grabbed a vial from his belt.  It contained a black liquid.  He drank it.

The liquid went to work instantly.  It helped him grow back his arm.  "I can fight again," he said to himself.

*****

Trunks and Goten finally got up.  They saw Lentra take the bag of senzu beans.

"We have to get those back," Trunks said.

"Just like the old days, right?" Goten added.

They both took their stances.  Then they uttered the chant.

"Fuse-ion!  Ha!"  They yelled as they preformed the fusion dance.  Trunks and Goten became Gotenks.

Lentra hadnt noticed them.  He began to fly off towards Piccolo.  Gotenks grabbed Lentra by the tail.

"Going somewhere?" Gotenks said in the strange fused warrior dual-voice.  He hurled Lentra into the ground.  He then heel kicked him in the back.  He heard Lentras muffled scream.  Gotenks grabbed him by the tail again and threw him into the air.  He dealt an uppercut to Lentra, and then elbowed him in the head.  He then took the bag of senzu beans back from Lentra.

Finally, Gotenks finished Lentra off with his signature move, the Super Ghost Kamikaze.  Lentra screamed his last scream.

Goten and Trunks unfused.

"Whew!" Goten said.

"We won!" Trunks added.

*****

Pahn sat up.  "Ugh.  I feel like Ive had a mountain dropped on my head."  She checked to see what was going on.  Gohan and Tratz were fighting.  Goten and Trunks had just finished off Lentra.  Vegeta was watching Gohan.

"Wow!  A lot has happened," Pahn said.

Cyba flew over to Pahns side.

"I have to help your father," he said flatly.

"You'll be killed," she said in disbelief.

"I still need to help Gohan," Cyba told her.

"Be careful," Pahn said.  She gave him a hug and a kiss.

"Ill be back," Cyba said.  He hugged and kissed her back.  Then he flew off.  He powered up.  Electricity was flying off of him.

*****

Gohan pulled himself out of the hole that was made when he hit the ground.  He powered up and charged an attack.  He launched it at Tratz.

Tratz merely brushed it aside.

"Damn, hes too strong!" Gohan yelled in rage.  "I better go up to full."  He released himself to pure instincts and tapped into the power of the rings.

*****

"Just like the dreams," Goten said out loud.

"What?" Trunks asked, perplexed.

"In my dream, Gohan was going to insanely high power levels," Goten explained.  "Now, he is at the level of Super Saiyan Three, except hes in his Mystic form."

They both would have seen what took place between Cyba and Pahn if their backs werent facing them.

Trunks looked up.  He saw Cyba flying into the air.  Cyba went Super Saiyan again and powered up.  The electricity coming off Cyba was blazing.

"Cyba!" Trunks called up to him.

Cybas first thought was that he caught him with Pahn.

Trunks tossed him a senzu bean.  Cyba ate it.  He let out a sigh of relief.

"Thanks!" he called back.

*****

Gohan held his hands out in front of him.  Goten, Trunks, and Pahn saw what he was getting ready to do and joined in.

"Ka," they all said.  "Me.  Ha.  Me.  HA!"  The four of them fired the blasts.  Each of them hit Tratz.  Tratz was knocked back, but not killed.  The E.A.s had used their force field trick again.

"When will you understand that you cant kill me?" Tratz said arrogantly.

"The same time you realize that we wont give up Earth without a fight," Cyba said.

"All of you Saiyans will die."
