Jackie backed off and took a deep breath. The frontal attack was a complete failure as the old man expected. 18 seemed to have endless reserves of power. Of course, that was idiotic to say, but Chun knew she was a lot stronger then him, even if he did use his maximum power. The elderly human whipped the small drops of sweat from his wrinkly forehead. A frontal attack against this woman was suicied. No, such a fight needed special measures.....
*FLASHBACK*
Tried as he might, young Roshi could not bring down his sensei. Everytime he tried, Mutaito would make a quick strike and he fell. After what seemed to be a millionth try, Mutaito said wisely:
"You cannot take out a stronger opponent directly, Roshi. You must use guerilla tactics."
The tall, but still young student blinked confusingly at his master:
"Guerilla tactics?"
"Yes Roshi. In order to beat a stronger opponent, you must weary him out. Only then will you have a chance of victory."
*END OF FLASHBACK*
Jackie returned into a fighting stance. He felt as the wind swept over his wrinkly, but muscular body. His mind, body and spirit were in full readiness. He needed all the power he could muster, beacuse he knew this fight would decide his fate. The two remained quiet as they watched each other. While Chun was in full readiness, 18 remained simple. She was obviously of though that this would end easily.
"Even if I fail, I wont let her win easily," he thought to himself. As he stretched out his arm and spread out his palm. The mechanical human raised one of her eyebrows, wondering would he really try to do something of such simplicity. But he did. A ball of ki exploded from the human extended arm. To the android, the ball travelled with the speed of slow motion. She simply moved to the side. But she did it to slow. As she wanted to turn back to Jackie, to comment on his stupid attempt, his fist connected with her face. The punch did not as damage the woman as it did suprise her. The former Sensie used her head to flip to the other side, his leg extended. As he wanted to move his lef in a 360 degree manner, the leg connected with hers and the push immediatly tripped the suprised humanoid. Thats when the human powered up. As this body was enveloped by a large green aura, Android 18s lens scouter beept and showed a 20x powerup. But it still wasnt enough to beat her in a direct manner. Jackie attacked with all his might at the fallen woman, his fists working correctly like a surgen. But soon enough, the humanoids fast leg flew into his face. As she got to her feet, Chun fell on the ground. He quickly got up. What he used was not guerrila tactics, but the elderly human realized that without superior speed, such tactics were useless. Still he tried with a suprise, but id didnt do much. Also the android now knew his maximum power. He could no longer suprise her. The woman smiled in a dangerous matter:
"Well I must say, you are stronger then you look. But face it....you cant beat me. Im going to end this."
She extended her arms. Roshis knowledge gave him know that such moves were tyical for ki attacks. He took the advantage and jumped out of the way. Thats when 18s sounds sounded trough the whole Area B.
"FINAL FLASHHHHHH!"
A large amount of yellow ki ignited and broke trough the soft soil. It was over very soon. The large attack left a enourmous trace. There was nothing left from the brutal attack. Nothing could survive such an attack. Unless of course that thing dodged before the beam could even appear. That thing was Jackie. Allthough the side of his saiya-jin armour was badly damaged, he was unhurt. He got up and nodded:
"Excellent attack. Perfect for suprises. But...."
"Damn it! How?"
As her mind was distracted by this, Chun noticed something in the distance that could tilt the scales into his favour. He now remembered his old Senseis saying, one he would definitly use.
"Use the enviorment to your advantage," he remembered and smiled. And yet he was woried. Could such a usage kill his opponent? Allthough others did that, he did not want to, at least not someone who didnt deserve it.
As he though on this, the woman was looking at him, not understanding what was he smilling for. It was too late, it was time to act. The old mans grin spred even more as he started to walk towards her, his hands stretching towards her:
"Come here, baby! At least give a poor old man a kiss...."
Android 18 did not understand what he was saying until he was very close to her. She started retreating, yelling:
"What wrong with you?! Get away from me, you dirty old man!!!!"
The ederly human countinued with his madness as the woman was backing off in discust. But in a flash of a second his face became serious again. As Android 18 again wondered what was wrong with Jackie, her opponent connected his palms and blue ki appeared. But before she could even realize it, Chun screamed:
"KamehameHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!"
The beam hit her with its full potential, blowing her away. It took only a second for her to spread her palms and stop the beam. But then even a greater force hit her from behind. A great electrical shock enveloped her body as she felt pain of incredible high. It felt like someone was stabbing her with a hot knife. The force was coming from the great yellow barrier. It was a trick. The old man used the barriers power against her. She held the attack, but at the same time her body was draining from energy. Her body started to feel incredibly weary. An ordinary fighter would have died in a second, but not someone as powerful as 18. It seemed to last forever. The android felt so helpless against such great force. She though she couldnt resist.
"I MUST....I MUST FIGHT IT.....I MUST!!!!"
A yell of agony escaped her lips. A white aura covered her complete body. It was the last thing Jackie saw before an explosion of ki enveloped the whole area. It seemed to end forever as the white energy dissaparated. Chun got up and moved his gaze upwards. Android 18 lay on the ground, breathing in a hard and quick pace. She was alive, but in a very hard condition. Her clothing was heavily torn and to some degree soaked in blood. There were large drops of sweat on her forehead and she had trouble moving. Roshi was relived. The shock did not kill her. The woman got up with great trouble, her gaze full of anger:
"Why you........."
This was it. This was Jackies great chance to win. And he decided to use it. Immediatly, his body was enpowered by Spiritken. Just like before, he attacked with an onslought, but 18 was in a much worser situation then before. She could not block Chuns accurate hits. But the former Sensei was woried nevertheless, how the fight would end.
