Super Dragon Ball: Paradise Hysteria

Judgment

Super Vegeta seethed over the edge of the crater he left his opponent in. For the humiliation that Artificial Human No. 21 put him through, for the mockery that this same lump of nuts and bolts dragged him through, he'd make this scrap doll defy its programming and beg for its life. It was no longer enough for Vegeta to merely destroy it; he had to humiliate it. Make it cry oil tears or kneel before him and grind its pale, stern forehead into the pavement, begging forgiveness.

Android 14's eyes shot wide open at once. The sudden resurgence of his vitality and the pulsing buff pumping through his artificial muscles made the ground underneath him shake as the Artificial Human wasted no movement in getting up and off the ground. He darted toward Vegeta while still prone, smashing into the King of Saiyans with his entire body. Super Vegeta crossed his arms up and softened the thunderous body splash. The immense force of the impact sent Vegeta sliding across the street to where his boots left fiery trails underneath him, but the Saiyan was quick to resume his fighting stance and answer No. 14's violent rush with a battle cry of his own.

Android 14 raised his hands, releasing a flurry of bright, teal-colored Ki blast at Super Vegeta but the King of Saiyans ignited a vibrant golden aura around him and dashed onward, swatting the blinding blizzard of energy balls aside while evading those that weren't a direct threat to him. The furious Super Saiyan with a shattered, royal sense of pride eluded every beam of light rushing his way, as numerous as droplets during a downpour before smashing his right into No. 14's gut and shutting the amped-up giant down.

A resonance of vociferous, low-pitched thuds and clangs spread through the abandoned city. Super Vegeta let his grievances with his opponent be known with a blinding flurry of straights into Android 14's waist area that bent the pale and braided ogre up and made him wheeze for oxygen. The Saiyan super-elite hopped up with a roundhouse kick, stamping his spinning foot right into the front of No. 14's face and spilling unidentified, droopy fluid all over the brute's belfry. It was as if the Super Saiyan glided across the air itself, leaning back as he rode the air currents with a brutal push kick that smashed into No. 14's chest, rattling the overwhelmed Android further.

Turning his whole body around, Super Vegeta tripped his opponent up into a vertical, aerial spin, using his stiffened arm for his sweep. Taking off into the air to ride the kinetic stream alongside his astonished opponent, Vegeta began turning with a combination of devastating roundhouses as his flashing golden aura added some explosive flare to each impact. Defying the tide of the battle, Android 14 skid across the burning street with his arms dangling by his side and his back slouched yet still standing. The flare from the surrounding flames made the shadows contrast the reflections of the fire on his face, sinking it in shades of black and blaze.

"Do you know what the worst thing about you is?" Super Vegeta spat some mix of saliva and blood alike to his right while stretching out his shoulders and his neck. "As a machine restricted by your programming, you probably can't even comprehend pride. And yet you still pull off annoying crap like sticking to your feet, refusing to fall down, and giving me that absolutely nauseating face. Those stern looks and angry eyes... It's as if they're judging me and telling me every time that I'm too weak. Too weak to handle the race of my people, keep them in line, lagging behind some low-class bastard dumped on an irrelevant planet in the middle of nowhere and an actual legend of my people. You cocky bastard! How dare you judge me!?"

Android 14's eyes shot wide open. A shock wave of shifting air spread from the musclebound bout machine as popping veins ravaged his entire face and musculature. This time Artificial Human No. 14 no longer projected mere sternness and indifference. He was blowing his lid off about something and it showed in the Android's booming crystalline aura and the trembling ground underneath his feet. No. 14's aura rivaled that of Super Vegeta's as the two raging warriors sought to stare a hole through one another.
