Last time on DragonBall AF, the final two matches of the quarter finals were completed. In another embarrassing loss, the Great Saiyaman III defeated Gonell. But in the next match, Goshin defeated his opponent, Joe Boxer, in less than a second! Now, the long-awaited confrontation between Goku Jr. and Papaya Man is ready to take place! Who will emerge victorious, and who will be the handed the loss?...
“FIGHT!”
Instantly, Papaya Man leapt into the air, with Goku in hot pursuit. Papaya Man turned around to face the charging Goku, and he had little time to react to Goku’s oncoming punch.
*THWOK*
“Oooooo! Amazing!” yelled the announcer. “Somehow Papaya Man blocked Goku’s fist! I thought that would for sure make contact! Uh-oh! It seems they’re at it again!”
Goku started giving Papaya Man a flurry of punches, and the champ was narrowly blocking everyone. “Come on Goku,” muttered Papaya Man. “I know you have more in you. Show me the power you used to fight your brother.”
Goku stopped suddenly. “What?! How-how did you know?!”
“Ah, Goku,” he replied, “you have much to learn still I guess. Don’t let your guard down for anything!” And before Goku could react, Papaya Man drove his fist into Goku’s gut, causing him to cough up blood as he slowly fell to the ground.
“No Goku!” screamed Gonell. Luckily, before he hit the ground, Goku regrouped himself and landed firmly with his two feet on the ground. Papaya Man had also made his descent and the two fighters were staring each other down.
“That was a dirty trick!” remarked Goku.
“As a fighter, you have to be prepared for anything your opponent may deal you, I thought you realized this by now. Now why don’t you be a good sport and show me some of your techniques, maybe something similar to Vegeta’s. Hm?”
“How do you know all this?” demanded Goku. “Who are you?”
“You’ll find out in due time,” answered the masked fighter, “but let’s focus on the present and enjoy our match for now.”
“ARRRRRRGH!” yelled Goku and he charged towards Papaya Man again. But this time, he disappeared just before he was about to hit him and Papaya Man began looking all around for him. “Here I am!” Papaya Man turned around, but by then it was too late as Goku made a quick kick to his head and sent him soaring across the ring.
“An amazing attack!” screamed the announcer. “Goku appeared out of nowhere and knocked Papaya Man to the ground!” As he said this, Papaya Man slowly rose up again. Seeing this Goku began another charge towards him.
“Your mine!” he yelled. But before he could reach him, Papaya Man closed his eyes. He raised his hands into the air as a pink light started radiating from them. This didn’t phase Goku and he kept on going. Then, Papaya Man quickly opened his eyes, and released a gargantuan wave straight towards Goku. He stopped dead in his tracks and realized he didn’t have a chance. “AHHHHHHHH!” Goku tried to hold it back with all his strength, but it was too much for him.
“Goku,” yelled Papaya Man, “you know what you must do. Release your power, unless you wish to be done in by this ki wave.”
“RRRAAAHH! I WON’T LET YOU BOSS ME AROUND!” Goku began to power up, but he didn’t transform into a Super Saiyan. A white aura began to come around him, and he was slowly gaining ground as he began pushing the blast back towards the champ. The attack began to tear up the tournament floor and the crowd was growing more and more scared by the moment.
“Goku! Don’t be a fool!” yelled Papaya Man. “Transform now!”
“NO!”
“He leaves me no choice,” he muttered to himself. He rose his hands again and started putting even more power into the wave that Goku was trying so desperately hard to hold back. Now Papaya Man was gaining once again.
Dang it! thought Goku. I can’t hold out much longer, but I can if I turn Super Saiyan. But why does he want me too? Why does he want to see my power so bad? What is he planning to do? And my mom! She doesn’t want me going Super Saiyan! But, I also can’t let me self be killed! “AHHHHHHHH!”
A tremendous amount of power began growing inside of Goku. The power he was emitting blew the announcer out of the ring and he fell flat on his face on the grass outside the ring. Papaya Man’s eyes began to light up.
“Good,” he said to himself, “I’ll finally be able to judge what he’s made of.”
In not time, Goku’s yellow aura reappeared, his hair and eyes changed color, and he was a Super Saiyan once again. “AHHHHHHH!” He began sending the wave back towards Papaya Man, sending him teetering on the edge of the ring. Then, without warning, Papaya Man released his hold on the blast, and let it engulf him.
*BOOM*
The explosion was thundering, and shook the entire stadium. After the brightness had dissipated, Goku was standing in the ring alone and Papaya Man was nowhere to be found.
“Wh-where is Papaya Man?” panicked the announcer. “Ladies and gentlemen, I see no sign of him anywhere. And- what this?! Goku’s hair has turned... golden! Wait, what’s that?”
Everybody’s attention was directed towards the sky, Papaya Man was there almost without a scratch, his cape blowing through the wind.
“I knew you had it in you Goku,” said Papaya Man. “I knew it all along.”
The look in Goku’s eyes was pure astonishment. “HOW?! How, are you still alive!”
“This isn’t looking good,” said Goshin. “Of course he’s still alive. That blast wasn’t enough to kill him. He barely used a quarter of his strength to make that. And now it seems his power’s jumped another level. I sense the same gap between him and Goku’s powers once again, even though Goku has transformed! How is this fighter?”
***
Miles away, Vegeta was in the hospital, watching the natch unfold on the TV in his room. “Come on Goku! You have to beat this guy!”
“Vegeta, don’t get too anxious,” cautioned Celery. “The doctor said to be still as possible.”
“I know mom,” complained Vegeta. “But this guy, it’s like he’s unstoppable or something! But now, I can’t even remember who he is! I can’t even remember the stupid friggin match!” In anger, Vegeta knocked over his food tray, spilling it over the floor.
“Vegeta,” said Rupan, “The doctor says temporary amnesia is normal. Don’t worry yourself about it kid. It’ll all come back to you.”

Back at the match, Goku was still trying to figure out what just happened. “I think it’s time we get serious. What do you say Goku?” said Papaya Man.
“You’d just better be on guard!” yelled Goku, and with that he flew up into the air to meet his foe. Another aerial battle ensued, and both fighters where giving each other a tumult of punches and kicks. It didn’t seem like either fighter was gaining, and Goku began growing more and more enraged. Suddenly, Goku vanished, and quickly reappeared even higher above Papaya Man, both hands on his forehead.
“Im gettin you back now you cheat! Solar Flare!” A bright yellow light illuminated the entire arena. Everyone was blinded by the attack, including Papaya Man.
d*mn it! thought Papaya Man, wasn’t exactly expecting that! I guess I should take some of my own advice! Uh-oh. Goku started rushing towards the blinded Papaya Man was his fist closed tight, ready to pummel the champ’s face.
“HYYAH!” Goku made direct contact on Papaya Man’s cheek, causing his head to snap awkwardly to the side. Goku still wasn’t done and started punching and kicking Papaya Man with out letting up.
All right, I’ve seen enough thought Papaya Man. Still blinded, he caught one of Goku’s fists, followed by his other.
“Huh?” gaped Goku.
He seemingly had a death grip on Goku as he kept squeezing his hands tighter and tighter. Goku stopped kicking and started screaming in agony. But as all this was going on, Papaya Man’s power started to pick up. Goshin noticed the difference.
“Good Lord! His power keeps rising!” he remarked.
“Is Goku going to be all right?” asked Gonell.
“I don’t know, but I think we’re seeing a glimpse of his true power now.”
Now Papaya Man’s own screams were growing louder than Goku’s. His power kept growing, and soon both fighters were engulfed in a pink aura. He let go of Goku, his body going limp. Papaya Man’s power kept steadily rising. “AHHHHHHH!”
“This is something I’ve never seen before folks!” addressed the announcer. “Papaya Man seems to have ensnared Goku inside a giant light of some sort, but from the looks of it, he isn’t moving! What is the champ planning on doing?!”
Then Goku, seemed to awake, but was only half-conscious. What’s going on? What’s this aura? Is that... yes, Papaya Man! He’s trapped me in here! I’ve-I’ve got to do something! Everyone’s counting on me! I have to stop im before he finishes whatever he’s doing!
Goku became fully awake, and Papaya Man sensed this, and started to manifest his aura into one single energy attack. But it was too late.
“KAMEHAME-HAAA!!” Goku released the wave, point-blank at Papaya Man who just barely had enough time to get his attack of as well. As soon as the two beams collided, a monstrous explosion occurred, sending the two combatants falling to the ground and blinding everyone in the stadium once again. When the light cleared, both fighters were in giant craters, seemingly knocked-out. The announcer ran towards the ring and looked at the two fighters, both of them starting to stir.
“I must begin the count!” he announced. “1...2...3...4!” Goku tried to get up, but he could barely move. He was bloody and torn. The same was for Papaya Man, but he hardly had a scratch on him once again. “5..6...7...8...9...TEN! *GASP* I don’t believe it, he’s gotten up! He’s won!”
What’s this, somebody’s actually risen up after the gargantuan blasts that both fighters have released! Who has risen triumphant? Who will go to the final round? Find out the shocking answer next time on DragonBall AF!
“FIGHT!”
Instantly, Papaya Man leapt into the air, with Goku in hot pursuit. Papaya Man turned around to face the charging Goku, and he had little time to react to Goku’s oncoming punch.
