Area B: Day One

[Android-18]

The Saiya-Jin pushed every bit of power that he could into the Final Flash. It pulsated brilliantly and flooded its way down and toward the blond android. Its hot edges tore at the ground like it were paper. The girl seemed impressed, slowly she moved her arms upward and just as the blast approached her form she yelled out and focused her power. The blazing beam struck her hands and she felt her feet digging into the grassy dirt. She cried out again and her aura flared to new heights. The energy seared and bit at her fleshy hands, but she could not let it overcome her. The spiky haired warrior had put a lot of energy into the Final Flash, but it would not be enough. She continued to hold it off until it exploded into a display of light and noise. Corniss watched with rising hope, the dust and debris filled most of the area. He watched, and he waited. Slowly the dist settled and his delight went with it. There she stood with her arms still out, they were red from irritation and her eyes were wide with the exertion. She slowly moved out of the position only to tuck her hair neatly into place.

?Nice, but it didn?t work.? She smirked lightly, ?Have any other ideas?? She watched his face drop like a rock. He looked utterly spent; he had put a lot into that attack. Android 18 watched him and knew the feeling well. Though he had failed he had given her some pain to deal with. Her hands hurt, though they would recover easily, it was an annoying feeling. Her nose was still bloody and dripping small droplets of crimson blood. She wondered if he could do anymore to her, or would his efforts only be this weak? She laughed suddenly and reached into her pocket. Slowly she lifted up her senzu bean and looked back toward the Saiya-Jin, ?One more chance, but this time I suggest you don?t waste so much energy.? She tossed the small but wonderful object toward him, ?I won?t need it, not in this fight anyway.? She laughed lightly as he caught it, ?Use it whenever you want, because this fight is coming to its end.? She powered up and let her aura come back to life.

Her body moved swiftly across the distance. Her hands, though red and aggravated, curled into fists that would hurt painfully. She charged forward and let her fist fly forward with a quick jab. The blow hit him hard in the chest and he went stumbling backward from the strength of her attack. She continued forward and grabbed him by the top of the armor. Her hand curled into a fist once more and cocked back for the attack. He struggled against her viselike grip knowing the pain that was to come. She was too fast for him to wiggle his way out, her fist continuously hit him in the face, particularly his jaw, and he felt blood splattering from his nose. She lifted him with all of her strength and tossed him high and far from her so that he landed hard onto the ground in a heap. She stood still, was this all necessary? No longer could she bother asking him to just give up. He was too proud, and he would not surrender at all. Did he think he had a chance? Maybe he did, if he was lucky, but he was getting one hell of a beating. She watched him get onto his hands and knees, blood dripped like a leaking pipe from his nose. He seemed to shake, whether it was from anger or weariness she could not tell.

It was not that she enjoyed this, well maybe a little, but time was wearing. This fight had to end, but why did he have to be so stubborn? Now he got to his feet and wiped a smear of blood from his mouth. He seemed confident once more; perhaps he would or had used her gift? He seemed to be mending, the blood had stopped. She smirked; this fight was very near the end. She motioned for him to come on, and he did just that. Soon they were locked into a fight of fists and blocks. They took to the sky and the android found herself in a sudden mercy fight with her adversary, ?Do you really think this is wise?? She said as he gripped her hands in hope to cause her pain. Though they were delicate and smooth, they were as strong as any warriors? hands. She had forgotten though, her hands still hurt from the burns. She grimaced as he tightened his grip, now it was as if they were equal. She cried out and tried against his strength. Her ki hit the very top, but her hands pulsed with pain. She struggled to over power him, ki crackled along her arms and hissed dangerously. He also gritted his teeth, it was not easy. She felt as if her hands would fall off, but she world not give up. One slip up and he could deal a deadly attack to her. If she had not been aware of his Final Flash he could have easily won right there.

Finally she let out a final cry and forced out her energy so that he felt himself letting go and flying backwards. He shook his hands from the pain that her grip had given. Slowly and smoothly the android drifted down to the ground and looked up at the floating warrior, ?That hurt.? Was all she said and she held out her arms. Energy started to form at the end of her arm by her palm. This was her favorite attack, one she used often and knew like the back of her hand. She pushed her energy into the two orbs of ki, they grew in size and she did not stop. Corniss was now on the ground, could he even stop her? She pulled the two spheres together and they joined as one. Ki snaked along her arms and fed itself into the growing ball of energy. She pushed more into it until finally she cried out, ?Final Flash!? The attack brightened and shot off toward her target. The grass burned and smoked from the hot energy. It rushed at him like a frate train. The energy pulsated and hungrily came closer and closer to its victim. Android 18 finally watched and let her arms fall to her sides as the light consumed the Saiya-Jin. Would he be able to fend it off? Would he be horribly weak for trying? She watched and waited.

OOC: I?m ready to end this.
