Kidnapping Tao

As Z2 I left the preliminary hall, Goku went off with the others to eat. I had walked around waiting, almost on Que I could see Tao walk around a corner. He spoke stupidly...

"Were you not expecting me? You may have had the advantage in the ring, but with me and my brother you are DEAD!"

I looked behind me and say the Crane Hermit. Perfect another victim for my plans. "WELCOME FRIENDS! I was indeed expecting you, I thank you for your poor sense of judgement."

"Tao you are right, he is very arrogant. We can beat him, attack together!"

I would not fight fair, I darted to beside the Crane Hermit and slammed his face into the ground. It was clear they didn't expect me to attack like I did. I had no worry about killing them, after all if they died. I could use the same cyborg tech they used to bring Tao back to life. It was lower grade then what i had so I could likely even improve it.

"HYEAH! DIE!"

I raised Tao's brother into Tao's own kick. The Crane Hermit went limp at his brothers own attack. "You attack your older brother? You might as well just kill him."

"You monster, put down my brother. You absolute coward!"

When Tao raised his kick again, I lifted his brother in the way again. "I wouldn't if I were you, you aren't as strong as you. Specially since he isn't a immortal cyborg, a corpse cannot become a cyborg you know."

He dashed and kicked for my head striking several punches into his brother's body. "You don't know anything, I was once dead! i can simply bring back my brother as an cyborg as well!"

I dodged blocking with the crane hermit, his body only becoming more bruised. I smiled a wicked smile. "Are you sure? Didn't you kill the engineer? I am one myself, I also know that if you asked your brother. You would learn just how dead you were. Dead men, don't come back."

He stopped freezing up, it was a guess. It turned out true though, he had killed the person who saved his life. "Typical, assassin don't regret their kills though right?"

"You...You! FUCK IT!"

He pulled out his arm cannon, charging a Dodon ray. The moment he did though I threw his brother at him, dashing toward Tao. I grabbed him by the neck and begun slamming his head into the ground repeatedly.

His arm cannon still charged to attack, he however i aimed it for him pointing it down to his legs. As his Ray begun to fire he had no way to stop it, the unfortunate die effect of making it used with his cybernetics. Aimed at his legs he fired, blowing his legs apart. With a vaporized lower half he struggled against me.

I dropped him to the ground and he tried to crawl away, "I don't deserve this. This isn't fair! How are you so strong?"

"You don't need to be stronger to win. That was all your own attack. You just have poor judgement like I said."

I was actually stronger than him which was why he struggled to resist me pointing his own attack toward his legs. However that didn't really matter, I kicked him in the side of the head. I relaxed removing my likely sinister looking smile. I grabbed Tao and the Crane Hermit and started flying toward my ship as fast as I could.

Flying in an airship to the tournament with Bulma was much slower than my actual flight. So I arrived at the ship in no time.

"Jin open up!"

The ship opened, "Helloooo~ Master! I made some upgrades to myself! I also fixed that nasty confirmation bug."

"That's good Jin, take these two and place them in the cryo pods. I will come back later to handle them, keep them asleep though. I don't want them making a mess."

"Okaaaay~ Master Z! Will it be a cloned body like your current one?"

"How can you tell? Wait Never mind, it will likely be a clone."

"Okay! I will be seeing you."

Jin took the two unconscious bafoons and took them away. I flew toward capsule corp, I could pick up Piana along the way. However it seemed the ship was much closer to the tournament than Capsule Corp. Unfortunately it seemed I could not grab Piana.

So I flew back to the Tournament instead...

----Piana pov----

"They haven't shown the the tournament yet... I wonder what's happening."

I guess I should call Z, I opened the scouter he gave me and tarted looking through the pictures. Oh wait, they are called apps aren't they. I looked through the apps, I found one that may help. I opened the App called Video Call.

[A ringing could be heard from the Scouter.]

"Yeah Hello?"

"Z! You left me behind!"

"Oh right yeah, since you opened a video call I can just show you the fights they are starting right about now."

How do I? Oh I just put it on my face to see what he's showing me.

"Oh is that whiteboard the names. I can't read the names. Z how do I?"

"It should auto-translate, wait a few seconds."

"Hey Z who are you talking to?"

"Its Piana, he is on a video call."

"Ooooh Right Gotcha! Don't tell him how we forgot about him."

"He can hear you..."

"Oh...Sorry Piana!"

A single tear formed in my eyes, "Its okay Bulma I get it..."

They did forget about me...on the bright side, At least I can still see the fights.
