[He grins as she grabs his arm, throwing him down, the earth below him crashing up all around the two of them as he hits it with an earth shattering force.

But all the same, it's like being bitten by a mosquito for Bebi, in Vegeta's body. His hand goes out, a blast forming and he quickly lets it fly at her, at such close range.]

[When an energy blast is coming in so closely, it's difficult to dodge it. He'll have factored the speed he's seen thus far plus what her father knows about her dodging ability into his blast radius.

The only way to defend against something like that is to let loose a blast of her own. She extends both hands and fires ki at him.]

[The collision between the two blasts takes out a good portion of the clearing they were in, leaving nothing but destruction all around them. Bebi takes this moment to move, flashing off to his right and trying to get behind her, a double ax-hand waiting for her if he's successful.]

[She'd saved herself from that blast, and she lets a little smirk cross her features, but it's short lived.

The hit from behind takes her by surprise and knocks her flat into the ground, smashing through the earth and leaving a wider ripple effect around the point of impact. She rises shakily a moment later.]

[He floats above her, arms crossed and looking smug.]

Give up! You don't stand a chance. I can't believe I've been given such an opportunity to exact my revenge, with such pathetic resistance...it's almost too good to be true!

Well, my daughter, it's time you suffered the same fate as my ancestors. And when you revive in this world...I'll kill you again!

[She can't let herself go down this easily. If she's going to die, she's going to save everyone and take him down with her.

Memories of last year's Father's Day come to her unbidden. There was a huge gap between her and her father then, too. While he'd pulled his punches for her...she'd managed to keep up for the full eight hours because she fought smart, rather than hard.

Bulla gives herself an extra few seconds to catch her breath, playing as though the fight's been smacked out of her with just that last blow. She waits until he's right above her, looking thoroughly self-satisfied and assured of his victory. Then she makes her move.

In a sudden burst of movement, she launches herself straight upward, aiming an uppercut at his chin. She doesn't stop with the one blow, though. At this point, it doesn't matter anymore if she's hurt as long as she dishes out pain in return. She sends a flurry of punches and kicks his way.]

What?! [She flies up and punches him high in the air, connecting with his chin. Several of those punches and kicks connect, and he's almost helpless for a few seconds or so. That is, until he loses his temper and finally manages to grab both her fists, aiming a side kick of his own to her midsection.]

[Ow, that was definitely at least one rib cracking from the impact. Her eyes go wide as the blow knocks the wind out of her, although it's not enough to make her release the super saiyan transformation and go back to normal just yet. The next breath of air she takes comes in sharply, but she has to force herself to keep fighting as long as she can. Every moment she spends fighting him is a moment he's not out infecting anyone else.]

[In his rage, he starts firing ki blasts at her, hands thrusting forward and firing shot after shot, intent in blowing her right out of the sky. He can't believe he let her get a good shot in on him like that, and now he wants to make her pay for it.]

[He'd felt the power surge and knew it was another saiyan, knew it was Bulla, which meant something was happening. Had happened, he didn't know but he needed to get there. He got Saori and was off like a shot, following the ki and-- oooh god.

Okay. This looks bad. Really bad.

Little not-sister comes first. He charges a blast and flies in, bridging the gap and throws the ball at the thing-not-his-father.]

[Saori raced off after Trunks, the magic in the air and the sounds of battle drawing her in as well. When she arrives on the scene, hot on the youth's heels, she snarls a word of power and flicks out her wrist in a warding gesture, conjuring a shield of air around Bulla.

In the same motion, she balls up her fist and slams it into whatever it is that's stolen Vegeta's face, backing it up with a burst of Anima wind. Between Trunks ki-blast and her suckerpunch, hopefully that's enough to get the thing away from the teen.]

[Though she narrowly dodges some of the ki blasts raining down on her, eventually one hits, and the blast she brings up to defend herself is too little, too late. It's not enough to kill her, but it is enough to knock her out of the sky and out of her super saiyan transformation.

Her descent is fast and hard...and suddenly stops in a soft cushioning of protective air. Gritting her teeth, Bulla looks up and is relieved to see her not-brother and Saori.]

You need to hit him hard and often... Bebi won't leave Dad's body unless it hurts too much to stay in there.

[Those attacks send him flying through the sky, in pain and shocked at the sudden help that's appeared for Bulla. It's enough to get them off their backs for a minute, as he's reeling. Bebi slams into the ground, kicking up earth and rocks everywhere. He's trying to pull himself up, but that combo of an attack has got him down for now.]

[And with him out of the way for a minute, Trunks looks to Bulla, trying to see if he heard that right. That thing won't leave unless they keep going, huh?

His eyes fall to where Bebi fell. Yeah, he's pretty sure he can do that. He nods to Saori]

You ready for it?

[Saori nods back to Trunks, already thinking over what she means. Beat up Vegeta? She wouldn't normally, but...he's hit his daughter, given her an unwanted kiss, and is clearly not home anymore. If Bulla says he's possessed, well...

Her jaw hardens.]

Let's do it.

He's responsible for all the missing people, too. He can spread...almost like a virus. Then he possesses people. He almost took over the whole world back home that way.

[Not to mention everything else that happened, but it's important that Saori and Trunks know what they're dealing with. She's not in any condition to help with this fight anymore. She is still in good enough condition to speak fairly coherently, in spite of the pain. She wants to help bring Bebi down as much as she can.]

Do not let him cut you. That's how he gets in. Through the bloodstream.

[There's a scream from where he'd landed, picking himself up finally.]

How dare you, you insects! [It's only a matter of time before he charges them now.]

Edited 2014-05-15 02:22 (UTC)

[If there'd been any residing thought that he'd hold back, it was gone now. All he hears is something controlling his father and sounding a lot like he did back in the alternate timeline. And that's just not going to work for him. Trunks takes a slow inhale and starts moving his arms in a specific formation until they fall into a diamond form in front of him.]

You should probably just stay down!

[And fire in the hole]

[That's it. Saori's had it with this arrogant creature. How dare he call her an insect? How dare he try to belittle her, her friends, and steal her champion's face.

Lightning flashes between her and Trunks, filling the young Saiyan with a portion of her power even as thunder rumbles overhead.]

You dare challenge me, creature? I'll grind you into paste!

[And she follows up Trunks attack with a roar of electricity, blue-white sparks lancing out like a thousand spears. Take that you freak!]

[Wow. Between her alternate timeline brother and Saori, this battle is suddenly quite uneven again - and this time it's not in Bebi's favour. It's a good thing her father is so strong. He'll be able to bear it, but he'll probably need a couple of days to recover from all the damage he's taking.]

Sacred water cured the tuffle infection before...so I'm betting the healing spirit Nala will probably be able to cure people here. I'm going to go and let everyone know what's going on so we can get everyone cured!

[And with that, she goes to fly away. It hurts to even fly too fast, but it's important that she warn people.]

[As he's standing up, Trunks's ki blast barrels at him and he takes his hand and bats it away, sending it behind him and blowing up a good portion of the landscape behind. He's hideously angry now, and he floats up to meet both of his opponents.]

[Then as the lightning flashes towards him from Saori's attack, he begins to move quickly, flashing in and out to dodge, as the battle begins...]
