Superman vs. Dragonball Z 5
The final battle.
Goku stood before the doorway with a hard gaze on his face. He moved
into the shadows in the dark hallway as a group of security robots passed
silently. The only light was a small torch on the wall opposite the
doorway as night had long since fallen. He stalked towards the room again
only to find the doorway was open already. A strange purple light shone
in the hallway and Goku raised his arm to shield his eyes as they
adjusted.
"Welcome to my chamber Son Goku, I've been exspecting you." said Sobaro
from inside the doorway. Goku walked into the room almost blindly.
"I can't say I'm surprised by that." he muttered.
"Really, did you think my security was that poor? We've been tracking
your sneaking around for some time now." snorted Sobaro as Goku's vision
finally cleared up.
He found himself at the top of a great stairway that led downward into a
stone room that was almost eight stories deep; at the bottom was a
comfortable looking bedroom with a few futuristic modifications, but on
the whole it looked like a traditional western room. What caught Goku's
eyes was the strange mirror that sat in the center of the room. It was
double sided and attatched to a small machine that kept it bolted to the
center of the room.
"Do you like it? It's called the window of worlds. It's how I brought
you here." said Sobaro as he appeared suddenly next to it. He was
dragging someone behind him calmly. "Your friend was quite determined to
find it."
Goku looked at the battered figure now slumped against the wall, it
sneered at him through the blood that covered it's face. "It's about time
you got here Kakarotto." coughed Vegita painfully.
"I thought I might run into you here," snorted Goku as he turned towards
Sobaro. "Here, I'm gonna need your help," he tossed something towards the
fallen warrior and stared coolly at Sobaro. "Eat it and it will heal you
completely."
Vegita stared at it cautiously and swallowed it after a moment. "Even if
it is poison, I'll die anyway." he grumbled.
"Ah, the infamous 'Senzu bean' I presume. I had assumed you used them
all in your last battle." snorted Sobaro.
"I did, but your world grew a plant yesterday from my bag, there was
only a small piece left in it." said Goku with a smile.
Sobaro snorted as Vegita stood up with a fresh and rested look about
him; he made a fist and looked at his hands in silent awe. "I always did
have a weed problem here." commented Sobaro with a frown.
"Come on!" cried Goku as he shot forward and punched at Sobaro. His
hands passed harmlessly through him and he was slamed down to the ground
by the man's blow.
"Fool! You think I didn't try that?" snarled Vegita as he blasted Sobaro
with a chi blast. The man smiled as he seemed to absorb the energy.
Vegita frowned and looked over at the recovering Goku. "Kakarotto! I've
got an Idea!" cried Vegita.
"I'm open for suggestions." said Goku as he backed away from Sobaro. He
simply stood watching the Saiyans passively, almost as if he was ammused.
Vegita stood next to Goku and glared at their opponent angrily. "Listen,
when we pull energy out ouf the air he gets weaker. I think he feeds off
the power from around him. If we can contain enough of it we should be
able to beat him."
Goku gasped, "Your right, I noticed that when I shot a Kamehameha in the
arena, the walls grew weaker for a few seconds."
"It's going to take both of us for that much of a drain and we have to
do it fast before he realises what we are up to." said Vegita as he
started to power up.
Goku nodded and started to charge up his own blast.
"What are you two up to?" said Sobaro out loud as he landed on the
ground calmly. "Surely your not going to blast me away are you?" The man
seemed to mock them in his confidence. "No chi blast can overpower me; no
matter how strong it is."
"Do it now!" roared Vegita as he shot forward.
"Right! Kaio ken!" cried Goku as he charged after him.
Sobaro became a blur of motion to the Saiyans blocking each blow easily.
He elbowed Vegita in the ribs sending him flying into the side of the
dimensional porthole. The Saiyan scrambled away as what appeared like
liquid metal tentacles reached for him. "What the hell?!"
Goku had better luck however he kicked at Sobaro's legs and found the
blow was blocked; but his intended strike at the monster's head struck
home. Sobaro screamed as he was knocked back as Goku's fist went
straight through his head sending pieces of skull and flesh out the back.
He growled low and pushed Goku back with a double handed strike to his
chest.
The Saiyan fell to the ground hard and he staggered quickly to his knees
just in time to see Sobaro's head repair itself easily. "Now, I have you.
You fools don't understand do you! You are indeed powerful, but I am
power here!"
Vegita smirked and stood glaring at Sobaro coldly. "So tell him that."
A fist slammed through the sorcerer's chest sending more flesh flying
away. The creature screamed in agony. He twisted his head back and saw
Superman standing with his arm punched through his back. "You?! You
died!"
"Fool, Goku didn't kill him, If you weren't so blind you could see
that." sneered Vegita.
Goku flew downward from above in a blow that took a large chunk of
Sobaro's face away causing the creature to screech in pain again.
Superman pulled his arm out and Sobaro fell to the ground with an audible
thud.
"You can't move when your like that can you?" said Vetgita as he slammed
his fist into the creature's back.
"How?" slurred Sobaro as it struggled to it's hands and knees.
"Goku out ran his blast and moved Superman under the ground into the
passageways below the arena. He's quite nimble I've found." said Vegita
as he kicked the creature in the ribs again.
"That's enough, we've won." said Superman.
"No, we haven't; he's still alive." growled Vegita as he rushed forward
and slammed his fist through Sobaro's abdomen. The thing turned around
and glared at him angrily. "Well, I think we've played around enough." it
hissed through the wound on it's face.
"What?!" gasped Goku.
A flash of light errupted around Vegita and Sobaro sending the Saiyan
flying away into the strange mirror. This time he flew right into the
glass and slumped down against it. His eyes flew open as he began to sink
into the reflecting surface. "What? Noooo!" he cried as tendrils of
liquid began to wrap around him and drag him into the mirror.
"Vegita! No!" cried Goku as he rushed to help his ally. It was too late,
the other Saiyan vanished beneth the surface.
"Damn, I'll have to find him later." muttered Sobaro as he stood up and
dusted himself off, his wounds were instantly gone and he smiled coldly
at the remaining pair of warriors.
"You monster!" cried Goku as he rushed forward to attack. Sobaro
vanished before him and Superman slamed forward as if struck by an
invisible force.
"Ha ha ha ha ha! You fools! You can't beat energy." Laughed Sobaro as he
appeared again. He began to pound relentlessly on the pair sending them
reeling across the room, his movements where too fast for even Goku to
follow them.
"Damn! What are we gonna do?" Spat Goku, his face was battered and
bruised.
Superman was even worse off from the relentless attacks and he fell
forward from another blow. "We hurt him before, even if he is an energy
being. That was no act he put on earlier."
"Too true and for that pain you shall suffer," snorted Sobaro as he
landed and blasted the pair into a wall with a mega chi blast. "You shall
die slowly,"
Goky glanced at Sobaro and an idea formed in what remained of his clear
thoughts. "I think we can beat him, but I need you to distract him."
Superman nodded and stood up as best he could, his energy depleated he
could no longer fly. He staggered towards Sobaro with a determined stare.
"Still a hero to the last." said Sobaro with a cruel smile. "You've
given me more trouble than any other hero, I commend you."
Suddenly the floor shook slightly. Sobaro staggered and Superman merely
fell to the ground. The stone cracked and a fist slammed up from the
floor followed by an angry growl.
"What the hell?" snarled Sobaro angrily.
Doomsday smashed his way up from the ground and roared triumphantly as
he surveyed his surroundings. He glared at the fallen Superman and
stalked slowly forward laughing to himself.
Superman only looked up in horror as he started to crawl away.
Sobaro sneered and floated up to watch. Goku rushed forward and punched
at the wizard angrily. His fist passed through the chest of the monster
and Sobaro smiled. "You missed."
"No I hit exactly what I was aiming for." smiled Goku as his hair began
to wave around.
Sobaro started to clutch his chest in pain. He glared at Goku as he
realized what was happening; a high pitched scream escaped the sorcerer
as he started to struggle. Sobaro began to implode around Goku's hand as
he seemed to create a black hole around the monster's stomach. The Saiyan
began to strain painfully under the force of the energy he had absorbed.
Doomsday stepped towards Superman slowly and methodically. His snarl
turned into a look of shock as Goku appeared between him and Superman.
The Saiyan smiled and raised his hand sending a massive blast of power
into the creature's chest. Doomsday was thrown back into the wall in a
massive exsplosion that threw Goku and Superman into the strange mirror
like machine. It absorbed them easily just as the room fell in around
them and crushed the porthole destroying it.
They found themselves standing in a long hallway full of strange
doorways. The one they had entered from lay in splinters behind them.
Superman stood and helped Goku along as they walked onward in the
seemingly endless hall.
"What did you do?" asked Superman as they sat down and rested for a
moment.
"I figured out what he was, he didn't have a body. He was pure Ki
energy; I assumed that the only reason that he kept that form all the
time was the fact that he couldn't survive without it. He needed a body
to keep his consiousness so he made one out of pure energy." said Goku
calmly as he rested against one of the many doorways that lined the hall.
"I get it, he had to have some sort of constant form to survive." said
Superman calmly as he rested next to Goku.
"I just absorbed him and turned him into a chi blast. It scrambled his
energy up so much that there's no way he survived. I used him to blast
that monster away from you." said Goku calmly as he allowed himself to
rest a moment longer.
"So, where do we go from here?" asked Superman with a small laugh.
"I guess we have to find our own way home in these doorways." snorted
Goku in a chuckle.
"That could take a while." said Superman with a sigh.
"What else can we do, we can't stay here forever. Besides I'm starving."
replied Goku cheerfully.
"Wonder what happened to that Vegita character?" said Superman as he
opened one of the doorways.
"I don't know, but I have a feeling I'll see him again." said Goku as he
also tried one of the doorways.
There was a flash of light from their respective doors and the hallway
was empty once again.
Eplouge
Ranma stood facing Taro as the rain started. The now female martial
artist gasped as the once cloaked boy began to grow and swell in a split
second. He backed away in terror as a massive fist came down slamming him
into a wall crushing the stone under his back. The thing growled and
slammed a massive hoof into the ground as it turned it's imence bulk
towards Ranma. It growled low and started towards her picking up speed as
it charged. Ranma put up her arms in defence to block the huge beast in
vain. Suddenly a blue and red blur appeared in front of her and the
monster's fist was stopped cold in front of him. Ranma watched in wonder
as the man in the red and blue tights turned and smiled at her lazily; he
was casually holding Taro's fist away without any visible effort.
"That's no way to treat a lady." said Superman to the transformed Taro.
"I'm affraid I'm gonna have to ask you to leave."
Taro grunted and swung another fist at blinding speed. Superman simply
raised his hand faster than even Ranma could see. Taro howled in rage and
pain as his fist connected with the man of steel's arm. Superman simply
smiled and punched Pantsuto in the jaw lightly sending him sprawling away
unconcious on the ground. He then ripped up a street light and twisted it
several times around the beast easily tying it in a knot at the back. All
Ranma and a newly arrived Happosai could do was stare in disbelief.
"Who the?" stammered Ranma.
"See ya." said Superman with a smirk as he flew away into the air.
"Wow." said Happosai as he stared, he quickly regained his composure.
"He's almost as good as I am."
Ranma belted him on the head. "Hey, wait a minute...I'm a guy you
jerk!!" cried Ranma as she shook her fist in the direction of the
departed superhero.
Magneto lay on the ground and struggled to his feet again as he stared
at the strange man standing before him with an arogant smirk on his face.
"Now, let's go over this again friend. Who is in charge here?" sneered
Vegita.
Magneto roared in anger and charged again sending a wave of raw mangetic
power towards Vegita. The Saiyan smiled and raised his hand catching the
approaching wall of magnetism and holding it back easily. Magneto
strained harder and Vegita started back under the pressure. "Why you!"
snarled the Saiyan. A light formed in his hand and Magneto was thrown
back into the large computer mainframe he had been working on when Vegita
arrived. He saw a blur of motion and Vegita appeared as if out of nowhere
in front of him punching him dead in the face and through a nearby wall.
His helmet clattered to the ground after falling out of the gaping
porthole now present in the steel walls.
Vegita smiled and turned towards the crowd of henchmen gathered in the
room with a cruel stare. "Does anyone else want to talk about it?"
The men stepped away in terror.
Goku vanished again in the strange jungle like room he had found in the
large mansion. "Hey cut it out! I told you I just got lost OK!" he cried
as the small angry man slashed at him again with his claws.
"Come back here!" roared Wolverine as he lept into the air after Goku
only to have him vanish again.
"Look pal I don't want to hurt you." pleaded Goku as his patience wore
thin.
"Just try it bub." snarled Wolverine as he slashed at the Saiyan again.
Goku frowned as his shirt was torn by the X-man and he glared at him.
"Hey! Do you know how long it took me to fix this from the last time?!"
he cried.
"So what?" barked Wolverine as he charged again.
Goku vanished again and kicked his opponent in the chest with no
resistance.
Wolverine flew through the air and slammed into the danger room wall, he
staggered to his feet and glared at Goku in disbelief. He hadn't even
seen the man move. He felt his lungs repairing themselves from the blow,
it would have hospitalized him without his healing ability. "Your a tough
one I'll give you that." he muttered as he stalked forward carefully.
The doorway to the danger room opened and the other X-men swarmed in led
by Cyclops and Professor Xavier. "Wolverine! We detected a dimentional
rift in the Danger room! Are you all right?" They all stopped cold when
they saw Goku floating in the middle of the room.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" said Cyclops suspiciously.
"Huh? Oh, I'm sorry, how rude of me. I'm Son Goku, and I'm kind of
lost." said the Saiyan.
Professor Xavier stared at him in disbelief. "What is it Professor?"
asked Jean through the telepathic link.
"X-men, we have to be careful. His power is enormous, he could quite
easily destroy almost every living thing on the planet without much
effort." said Xavier as he eyed Goku coldly.
"So what else is new." muttered Wolverine.
"I've never felt such a pure spirit before." said Jean as she watched
Goku in wonder as he floated down to meet them.
"Yes, and there's another one somewhere else, one much darker." said
Xavier as he turned to face the X-men.
"Yes, I know. I feel it too, Vegita is here." said Goku as a hard look
crossed his face.
"Who?" said Jubilee as she emerged from the back of the crowd.
"It's a long story." said Goku with a smile.
"Yes, one I think we need to hear." said Xavier as he lead the group out
into the mansion.
Wolverine growled and followed at a distance while glaring at Goku.
"This ain't over yet."
Well that's the whole story. Hope you enjoyed this little tale. In fact
I'd love to know what you thought of it.
