Dragon Ball Z: Paradise Found

The Galactic Tag Team Bout

"You guys are in big trouble now that Burter has joined in on the action," Jeice taunted the combined forces of Yamcha and Tenshinhan. "Together with Burter, we are the No 1 Tag Team in the universe!"

"That's right, with Jeice's devastating Crusher Balls and my breakneck speed, no one can match us. We're so overwhelming when fighting together that it is not something we do all the time, breaking it out on very special occasions!" Burter took a flashy pose and shifted from it to a more balanced fighting pose.

The two Ginyu Special Squadron warriors took off at the same time, racing and interchanging between one another as a red, blazing arrow of aura blitzed alongside a blue one. Tenshinhan put up his knee, blocking Burter's cross chop charging attack while keeping perfect balance on the ground with just one leg. Yamcha weaved back to avoid Jeice's crushing blow and then leaned aside, evading the following up barrage of strikes.

A resonance of exploding airwaves littered the sky as Yamcha and Jeice clashed repeatedly, flying back from the kickback of their clashes before vanishing in and out all over the landscape as the battle. Tenshinhan and Burter vanished altogether, colliding with another through subtle vocal booms that sent sonic shock waves, but otherwise not a trace of the two speedy combatants became apparent. Chiaotzu observed the battle from down below with a hint of worry on his face, turning his head to where the battle moved. The short ghoul took off and followed the tide of battle as it moved into the industrial backyard district of the Meat Processing Plant.

"All this boasting and you've failed to land a single punch," Tenshinhan twisted his face as if he had swallowed something bitter before allowing the repugnant taste in his mouth to become more lukewarm. "Not to mention your horrendous fighting stance that leaves you wide open when you fight."

"Huh? Act all cool and strong you want, three-eyes, you haven't landed a hit either," Burter hissed with a rich grin, having taken Tenshinhan's failure at a successful attack as an unspoken compliment to his speed.

"Still with me?" Jeice taunted Yamcha as the two combatants panted one before another, both worn down by their previous clash with Yamcha's body suffering from both the beating he took and the aftereffects of King Kai's Fist burning up his body and tearing his muscle tendons apart with grisly, twitching strain. Like a grand voltage of electricity running down the martial artist's body with each passing phase of blood circulation being completed.

"Surprisingly so, I'd have figured your moves would have put me to sleep long ago," Yamcha faked a cocky smirk while clutching at the right side of his chest where his pectoral was acting up with rampant, painful twitching.

"Burter, enough dawdling already, let's show these guys our premiere tag team moves already and shut them up!" Jeice glanced at his right side to his partner, who widened the glare that he returned and couldn't tense his lower jaw up again to close it for a moment.

"What? Are you sure you're in the right shape for that?" Burter wondered.

Without answering directly, Jeice leaned his body forward, as if preparing himself for a shoulder charge, which prompted both Yamcha and Tenshinhan to take their defensive fighting poses to prepare for a big attack. Burter was slow to set himself up for the rushing combination attack, but he did it, nonetheless.

"Purple Comet Hurricane!" the two chanted out in sync with one another before taking off. Jeice had a heated tail of a red blaze trailing behind him, while Burter's was a cool blue. The two whizzed right past and in-between Tenshinhan and Yamcha at an alarming speed that took both martial artists by surprise, though what confused the two even more was that it didn't appear that their opponents intended to hit them at all. Both warriors avoided the team rush attack by simply stepping aside, but both alien soldiers performed a drastic U-turn, looking ever as confident in their abilities as before.
