Pan shot out a blast of chi at Red as soon as the announcer began the fight. Red jumped elegantly out of the way and threw her own red chi at Pan. Pan jumped over the attack, and came at her enemy with a kick from the air. Red grabbed hold of Pan, and slammed her against the ground, and kicked her accross the stomic.
At the tent, Hiro nearly flew out of the tent in anger to teach Red a lesson, but Vegeta held him back by his collar saying, "This is a professional fight. If you go out there to "defend" Pan, you'll only be disgracing her." After having that small lecture, Hiro could only watch Pan fight the strange woman, swearing under his breath. 18 watched the woman in white fight Pan, she knew all too well that she was going easy on Pan, but somthing else caught her sight; Red's black nails became long and claw like.
Red striked at Pan with her talons with Pan barly getting out of the way with only a long cut across her cheek. Pan saw Red lick the blood off her fingers, and her shadowed eyes glow dark red. "What's with her?" Pan asked herself. Red turned and faced Pan, and suddenly ran toward her, claws in front of her. Pan dodged her attacks, jumped over her and tried to kick the back of her head. Red ducked, but not before her hood was ripped off by pans kick. Red's long hair was untied, flowing in front of her face like a viel. Red grabbed and threw Pan across the stage with anger, and started to walk slowly toward her. Pan got up only to see Red running to her, her hair flying behind her. Pan saw her face. It looked like a demon's she had seen in her dream, long fangs, blood red hair, and blue eyes with red slits for pupels.
Red struck the ground where Pan was standing, destroying the stone easily. Pan had made it out of hit range, only to be in her range of fire once more. Red had flew in front Pan faster than anyone could see. Red punched Pan in the stomic, knocking her out without breath. Pan stopped moving.
"The winner is Red..." the announcer said in his mic. His voice was little, the sight of Reds face scared him relentlessly. Red didn't walk off stage like the other fighters before her, she raised Pan in the air with one arm while raising her other. "What are you doing?" the announcer asked with more life. Reds claws became long as knifes, dangerously hanging over Pans head. "Hey! Put her down!"
Red plunged her claws down at Pans neck, but stopped immidiatly when she felt a white hot palm on her back. Hiro had flown on stage and placed his hand on her back, already gathering engery to blow her away. "Put her down." Hiro commanded. Red dropped Pan to the ground and turned around to slash her claws at the saiyan boy. Hiro ducked, and threw his attacks at the woman. They exchanged their blows, each getting theirs blocked. Red suddenly slashed across his neck, only hitting air when Hiro ducked. Hiro spinned and successfully kicked Red in the face, making her lift off the ground and spin back down to the dirt. Hiro shot an chi blast at her body, but Red quickly got up and jumped away, landing on the other side of the ring.
"Red! You are disqualified!" The announcer yelled. Red ignored him, and stared at Hiro. She laughed.
"What's so funny?" Hiro asked in anger. Red covered her mouth, her fangs started to fade away and her eyes became normal once more.
"And here I thought I was going to get rid of her. But I guess my plan backfired." she said rubbing her cheek. "I didn't even think you would attack me so soon. How foolish of me."
"Why would you want to kill Pan?" Hiro asked his anger boiling.
"Because if I did, then you would be all mine again."
"What the hell are you talking about? I was never yours!" Red was silent for a while, then smirked.
"Oh yeah. You got rid of your memory didn't you? Not that I blame you; not a lot of people want to remember me -but you must remember somthing!" Hiro was silent. "Come on! Not even little peices? Well you must remember this." Red lifted her hand, and it bursted into fire. Hiro gasped and stared at flame, his puples dialating. "You remember?" she asked slowly. "It's the very first thing I taught you; the Fire of Teigra." Red moved closer to Hiro as he kept staring at the flame in her hand. When she got close enough, she placed her free hand on his forhead. Hiro dropped to his knees, his eyes becoming dark. "Hiro," she started, forming her burning hand into a closed peace sign in front of her face. "I want you to remember everything." Hiro mind went blank, then suddenly he screamed and jerked his head backwords. Hiro placed his hands on the back of his skull all the while screaming in pain. Red kept changing her hand in front of her face while chanting words no one else could hear. Hiro screamed and screamed, falling on the ground gripping his skull. Reds fire turned black and she suddenly said in a commanding voice, "Kanke rou tsu," Red gripped Hiros hair and lifted him off the ground. "Chi tsu moe," Red placed her burning hand on Hiros face making him scream in agony. "Ri see cha!" she yelled. Hiro fell to the ground silent, his hair turning blond. "Wake up Hiro." she said softly. Hiro jerked, and got on his feet. Hiro opened his green eyes, and glared at the world. "Can you hear me?"
"Yes, my master." he said gloomingly. Red walked around him with a smile.
"You've become stronger. Show me your strengh." Hiro's eyes were glaring and he floughted to the air. Hiro pressed his palms together and made a tiny flame when he seperated them. He extended his arms apart, the flame circled around him becoming bigger and hotter. Red smiled devilishly. "Kill them!" Hiro grabbed the flame, becoming a long whip in hands. He cracked it at the audiance, the people didn't have a chance to move as it hit the stands, melting the cement and burning the corpses of the victems.
Vegeta, Gohan, Trunks, and Goten flew to Hiro, stopping his assault. "Stop this!" Gohan yelled.
"Snap out of it!" Vegeta commanded. Hiro wrapped his whip around him becoming a ring of fire. He thrust his hands out, the ring pushed and burned the Saiyans away from him. Hiro drew in his flame to his hands, his fists becoming engulfed in the fire.
"Hiro! Stop this! We don't want to fight you!" Trunks said desperatly. Hiro meerily glared at him, and then charged at him. Trunks turned into a Super Saiyan quickly and dodged his fire punchs. Hiro kicked his stomic and punched him in the chest, the fire exploded in his chest and sent him to the ground.
"Trunks!" Vegeta yelled. Vegeta growled and changed to his highest Super Saiyan form, then charged at Hiro. Hiro ducked his kick, and shot a stream of fire at the prince. Vegeta dodged, then shot his own chi blast at Hiro. Hiro thrust his hands in front of him, his fire becoming a shield protecting him from the blast. When the chi attack subsided, Hiro brought hands back, the shield becoming a small ball of fire in his palms. Hiro thrust them forward and shot a fireball, successfully hitting Vegeta.
Goten and Gohan looked to one another, and nodded. They transformed and flew to Hiro. Hiro blocked everyone of their blows and summoned his fire to his palms. The fire changed into a whip again, and Hiro threw it upward at Goten. Goten dodged, but Hiro steped on his chest and jumped off kicking him across the face. Hiro's whip turned into a sword, and struck across Gohans chest, and stabbed Goten in the stomic. The brothers fell to the ground.
Hiro floughted back down, and got on one knee in front of Red. Red was grinning at the sight of the saiyan warriors on the ground, then looked at Pan. "You missed one." she said pointing at her. Hiro got off the ground and walked to Pan. He extened his hand in front of her and brought forth his fire once more. "Kill her." Red commanded. Hiro stood in front of her, his fire threating to devoer Pan, but he didn't do anything more. "What's wrong? Kill her!" Red yelled. Hiro remained still. "I said Kill her!"
"No!" Hiro yelled suddenly. Red's eyes widened and pushed him out of the way.
"I'll do it then! She's been getting in my way since she came into Teigra!" she thrust her hand forward her flame coming to her fist. Hiro brought out his fire, it forming into a sword, and placed it threatingly in front of Reds neck. Red stared at Hiro in shock, his eyes spoke of pure hate. Red backed away, and said to leave Pan. Hiro's fire sword dissapeared and his face became expressionless once more. Red looked around, the crowds were running out. She sighed. "This is pointless. Let's go Hiro. We'll come back later." They both flew into the air, leaving the saiyans on the ground behind them.

Pan awoke in pain. She was lying on the lap of her grandmother, and when Chi-chi noticed she was awake she hugged her tightly and cried. "Hey! Quit it Grandma I'm fine!" she looked around, everyone was inside their hotel room. Vegeta, and Trunks were wrapped in bandages, as were her father and uncle, except they were uncautious. Eveyone was happy to see Pan awake, but Pan got the feeling somthing terrible happened. And Hiro was nowhere to be seen. "Hey. What happened to everyone? Where's Hiro? Is he out somewhere?" she asked.
"Pan..." Videl started, placing a hand on her shoulder. "Hiro's not here."
"Huh?"
Videl told her about the recent events, afterword Pan's eyes were wide and filling with tears. "What?" she asked. "Hiro would... Hiro would never do that!" she yelled. "You're lying!" she screamed.
"Calm down." 18 said suddenly. She turned on the television and changed it to the News. A man was shown talking about an attack at The World Martial Arts Tornament.
"Today at two o' clock, 5 people were killed by a fighter in The World Martial Arts Tornament. Here's the footage that was taken." The screen showed Hiro in Super Saiyan form floughting in the sky. He brought out his fire and changed it into a whip. He cracked it, and smited the innoucent people in the crowd. Pan sat in shock as she saw him fight Trunks Vegeta her father and uncle. Then she saw Red, smiling. Pan was feuled with anger as she saw Hiro kneel in front of her.
"That woman... I was so stupid." she growled.
"You know somthing Pan. That woman did somthing to Hiro." Vegeta said. Pan bent her head, facing the ground.
"That woman's a demon. She's done this to Hiro before, years ago. She found him and did somthing to him, forced him to turn into a super saiyan. Then she made him kill... a lot of people. I don't know what happened to them. I think Hiro killed her and was released from her manipulation. But nothing that happened was Hiros choice! Just like this!"
"We know." Roshi spoke. "We don't blame Hiro for his actions. But if what you say is true, then Hiro has fallen into that demons hands once more. But he's still in there somwhere. After he faught them," he gestured to the saiyans. "Red ordered Hiro to kill you. Hiro wouldn't do it, and when Red tried to do herself, Hiro nearly cut her head off!"
"He's exagerating of course." Bulma said. "But it's true. Hiro wouldn't let Red get close to you."
"We think you can snap Hiro out of it." Vegeta said. "We don't know where they went, we didn't stay to find out. But they were heading east."
"Teigra. They must be heading there."
"To Teigra then." Trunks said. "When we're all healed up we'll go with you." Trunks said.
"How are you going to fight them? Hiro's stronger than Vegeta now!" Krillin said.
"We'll figure that out later." Vegeta said. "For now, we must rest." And with that everyone left the room, leaving the Son family.

Everyone was asleep except for Pan. She walked out to the balconey of their room, and looked east. All she could think about was Hiro. "I'll save you Hiro."
