It was with irony in the eyes that the two cyborgs watched the angry ball flew in their direction, that pure anger they had just aroused.

Fist clenched and teeth gritted, Yamcha took off after his friend. He had no other choice, he had to try and protect him the best he could, even if it was against himself! He had never seen the small man in such a state.

There were no doubt about the fact that he'd soon return to senses. Besides, time should be up now... or almost...

As he was flying, Krilin shot an angry attack from each of his hands, but two identical punches just send the two energy attacks away with ease.

The moment after, it was an enraged fighter that suddenly appeared between the two bionic beings, striking at incredible speed. But his double target just dodged his blows with ease as incredible as each of his attacks.

Yelling his rage and frustration, Krilin still managed to surprised them with throwing them away thanks to a phenomenal burst of ki, violent show of the anger that his burning him from the inside.

With his strength that this so intense rage had increased tenfold, Kame Sennin's disciple used this little advantage: a powerful blow with his two joined hands almost stunned #17, then he gripped him by his hair in order to throw him a mighty shot at point-blank range before the latter had time to react.

Yamcha was aghast by the unusual aggressiveness of his friend and he tried to move 18 away from Krilin. He made a huge energy ball and controlled it with his hands, making it go after the young woman who kept dodging it through the sky.

Focused on the moves of his target, Yamcha hadn't noticed the mischievous smile that she suddenly displayed.

It was almost too late when he realised with dread that she just had brushed past Krilin, turning around the small fighter who was surprised by the manoeuvre too.

The small man's friend had just enough time to divert his energy ball at the last moment, thanks to lightning reflexes, and throw it in high altitude where it eventually exploded.

Krilin was still wild with rage and he threw himself on the so near young woman, but she kneed him and so stopped his momentum very brutally.

The bent fighter couldn't help but spit blood.

He looked up with hatred at the blond haired woman who was raising her hands as if to say she was sorry. What a bitch! Besides, that swine afforded herself the luxury of making fun of him!

C17 had catched up with them in altitude once again. The two cyborgs were now turning around on either side of Son Goku's friend who was glaring at them and wiping the trickle of blood he could felt flowing to his chin.

Yamcha didn't know what to do. Krilin didn't seem to be wanting to see reason, he was persisting in ignoring his help, in going on with a solitary and hopeless fight, getting himself deliberately at the mercy of these unscrupulous killers.

With sadness in his eyes, he looked at Gyumao's corpse. It'd seem that killing someone hadn't been enough to quench their blood lust today. He now scanned the hopelessly empty sky. The situation was completely doomed. They had a dire need of reinforcements. If only Goku were still alive, he'd have managed to be here on time to save them all.

But with if... For now, all they could do was relying on their own skills... and maybe luck? After all, god was on their side.

This thought calmed Krilin's friend a little... Or he convinced himself of this in any case. Either way, he didn't have any other choice!

Well... for now he had to find a way to get his friend out of the mess he had gotten himself into!

His heart beating hard, he whistled and the three characters who were turning around above him ceased their dance to look with surprise at the fighter who take a fighting stance, teasing one of them.

“Hey, blondhead! What would you think of a clinch with a man, a real man!?”

Yeeeah... Deliberately laying himself open to the fury of that monster in skirt wasn't the best idea he had ever had, but he hadn't thought of anything better to split the devilish pair and divert their attention from his old friend.

One on one, it wasn't feasible, he knew it very well. But well, Krilin had finally stopped his blind attacks so they'll most likely be able to find a new way to defend themselves... Well... hopefully... otherwise...
