will. So I came up with a nice little way to get you to talk. (I did, Master thought sourly.) I'm going to kill each of these students, one at a time. Until you are dead too, or you give yourself up voluntarily. "Katra grinned nastily.The man in the cloak, whose smile could now be seen, raised a hand and pulled it to his body. Kyoko broke away from the crowd with a cry of horror, flew through the energy wall and hovered in front of Katra. She tried to move, but the strength of this magician held out. She couldn't move.


Katra grinned again. He pulled a small shiny dagger from his belt and held it directly to Kyoko's throat. She seemed to be wavering between two decisions. If she gave herself away now, she could get away from him. If not, someone would die. As she turned it around, there was only one way out:


Just when Kyoko had made the decision to attack Katra, Trunks ("Well, it doesn't matter, I never liked school anyway.") And Goten ("We'll just get kicked out. Mama would knock me out because of this year's report card anyway.") out of the crowd. The energy wall stopped the two for a moment, but after two blows a rather large hole appeared.It closed again after the friends went through. All students took a deep breath as Goten and Trunks approached their opponent and stopped short in front of him.


Katra seemed delighted. "Look, there are two. How very practical, that saves me a trip."


"Let go of her right now, you bastard," Trunks whispered in a dangerously low, threatening voice. It seemed about to explode. Goten looked no less angry. "If you give her a hair, you will get a lesson that you will never forget for the rest of your life, believe me."


Katra laughed out loud. “You have no idea who you are up against, children.” He reached into Kyoko's hair, picked up a single one and tore it off. Kyoko didn't move. What was the purpose of the two? she kept asking herself. Yes, they were strong, but could they be Saiyans? She had never considered this possibility, even though it was an obvious one.

Trunks freaked out. He concentrated all of his energies and turned into a threefold SuperSaiyajin. Goten did the same.


Kyoko's eyes widened. They were actually Saiyans. How could she have missed it? Now, in retrospect, she remembered all the signs: the glitter in the eyes, the speed, the strength.


Katra didn't seem impressed. "If that's all, it's easier than I thought. Master, let go of the girl. We don't need her anymore."


The invisible hand let go of Kyoko and she fell to the floor. Trunks and Goths rushed to her at once.


"Are you all right? Are you hurt?" Trunks asked worriedly.


"No, I'm fine. But ... you shouldn't have done that," Kyoko said with a slightly sad tone.


Trunks looked at the floor. He felt himself turning red. "Of course we would. If something had happened to you, I would have had a guilty conscience all my life."

Kyoko smiled. "Now flatten this would-be bounty hunter and his sorcerer's apprentice (" Hmpf ", the master)."


"Do you know that you look like monkeys with long hair?" Katra asked, amused.


"Do you know that you don't just walk into a school and threaten friends of mine?" Goten replied.


"Now I'm getting scared."


"How about we retreat to the desert to fight?" Trunks suggested. "I need space to fight."


Katra responded. The master, Katra, Trunks and Goten took off and shortly afterwards disappeared from the Hotizont.


Kyoko watched her friends go on for a long time. Tears stood in her eyes as she whispered, "Live. Please survive. I need you."


When the master was several thousand kilometers away, the shield dissolved and the OrangeStar students were able to move freely again. Immediately everyone gathered around Kyoko, who seemed to know what had happened.However, she turned around wordlessly and left the school. She needed her rest now to watch the fight.


On a very high mountain near the western capital, Kyoko sat cross-legged. She closed her eyes and concentrated on the auras of Trunks and Goten. After a short time, the face of Goten appeared in Kyoko's mind's eye. He was badly hurt. His clothes were torn and he breathed deeply in and out. Kyoko's gaze wandered to Trunks. He also looked anything but healthy. He was bleeding from several wounds and seemed more than surprised by the strength of his opponent.


Katra laughed out loud. "I told you, I'm not easy to defeat. You'd better not have opened your mouths so wide, that doesn't go with failure."


Trunks and Goten looked angry but didn't seem able to fight back any longer.


"When I think about it, it was pretty boring.But before I kill you, I need a little bit of information. Saiyans surely know each other on this small planet. Do you know a certain Kakarott, also called Son-Goku? "


Goten gasped. "You are talking about my father, scum."


"Look. The traitor started a family on this planet? It's lovely," Katra laughed scornfully. "So where does he live?"


"Find out for yourself," Trunks hissed through clenched teeth.


It hurt Kyoko to see him suffer like that. If only she could do something. But it was too far away. She couldn't send a spell over such a long distance. She felt despair flood her. If she didn't do anything, the two people she liked most would die!


In desperation, Kyoko sent a healing spell to heaven. With every fiber of her heart she hoped, she gave power to the spell, and finally ... Trunks and Goten were enveloped in a brilliant white light.When the light disappeared, the two were unharmed and fit again. Kyoko collapsed on the mountain.


Trunks and Goten examined their missing wounds in complete amazement.


"What was that, master," the irritated Katra muttered to the master.


"It was something powerful, Katra. There was magic at work here. I don't yet know who it came from, but as soon as we're back in the spaceship, I'll get to the bottom of it," assured the master.


"Well." Katra turned back to his two opponents. "That delayed your death insignificantly. But don't worry, I'll be happy to hurt you seriously again. It's even a pleasure for me."


"It would be a pleasure, you want to say," said Goten. He grabbed Trunks by the arm, put two fingers to his forehead and teleported himself and his friend away from the scene.


Arrived in front of the Capsule Corporation, Goten let go of Trunks. This snapped at his friend: "Why did you do that, Goten?What did you think you were doing?"


"We had no chance, Trunks. He was far superior to us, even though we were three-time SuperSaiyajins. I only saved our lives," Goten replied calmly and with a deliberation that made Trunks pause.


"We're needed elsewhere. We have to tell our fathers and Dende what happened. And we have to figure out how we can beat the guy."


"Still! It was cowardly to just run away. We behaved like little children. My father would never have run away."


"Your father would have died too. Listen, we can be glad we got away with our lives. Even if it was not honorable to flee, we will make up for this fight. False pride was inappropriate here. It was more important to pass on the information we have about our opponent. Otherwise he would also surprise our fathers and Gohan. "Goten spoke urgently to his friend.Trunks knew Goten was right, but the fact that he had fled an enemy gnawed at his confidence.


"Something different ... where do you master the current teleportation from? I didn't even know that you can already do that." Trunks was really surprised and couldn't completely suppress the admiration in his voice.


Goten blushed at the compliment and mumbled something embarrassed that his father had taught him that some time ago so that they could get in touch more quickly.


Trunks and Goten wasted no more time talking. They went straight to the gravity room to talk to Vegeta. After hearing the latest facts, he set off with Trunks, Bra and Bulma to Dende, where they would also tell Piccolo.


Goten teleported to Gohan. Gohan went to the palace of God with his family and the Kuririns. Eventually Goten alerted his father, Yamcha, Tenshinhan, and ChaoZu.Soon the whole Z-Team was gathered on the large platform of the palace and Goten and Trunks began to tell everything in detail.


However, while Goku praised his son for having had the courage to suppress his pride, Vegeta made no move to praise Trunks. On the contrary, Trunks had to listen to an almost endless tirade of ranting, which culminated in Bulma yelling at Vegeta to kindly leave her child alone. Vegeta was still grumbling, but at least Trunks had his peace afterwards.


In any case, everyone else was pleased with the bravery of the boys. Dende agreed with the two that the new opponents were really powerful, and that they had done just the right thing. But even he couldn't explain what power had healed them both.


"Somebody was kind to you," was the only thing he could say.




Kyoko was just coming to on the mountain. She rubbed her forehead.She had tried very hard to send a spell this far. She could feel Trunks' and Goten's auras far from the battlefield. The girl breathed a sigh of relief. She could have helped both of them. She stretched out happily. She would worry about this bounty hunter later. Now it was time to recover from using the magic.




Meanwhile, Katra was in a really bad mood. The other energy sources had also disappeared. There was nothing more he could do. Everything went down the drain. Once again he was about to take his anger out on Master. He dealt with it calmly.


"Try the same trick again," he suggested.


"How? I don't know where this girl is", Katra yelled at his
