After all, Videl’s able to do… effectively that, and Peppa’s been training on that idea for quite a while now! You power down to base as you sense Gohan approach, then just… power up, and keep powering up! And… it’s… actually not working out as you intended. It’s not actually as much as you thought you’d draw out, and when Gohan gets up close with you, he’s actually able to land a solid hit on you.
Okay, that didn’t go over as well as you wanted. Let’s see… oh, they won’t expect you to pull off one of Peppa’s skills with a new twist, heh heh heh. You kick back down towards Gohan, but instead of actually kicking, you let energy flow through your tail, trying to mix that with Wind Magic to give you a Drill Tail! Haha! Let’s see him- …why’s he just standing still?
Right before you get close to him, Gohan smirks and simply calls out, “Kai Kai.”
You don’t even hit an afterimage, you just fly through the air. Trying to stop yourself, you look down at your tail and exhale. That… needs to be a bit less telegraphed to use effectively. You’re sensing Maple power up now, the flow of her energy oddly swirling around her. Okay, maybe you can still try to pull something off! You power up again, but let your body actually transform, pushing further and further! It’s… getting harder to maintain your fused form at this point. Damn! Come on, come on, you break your limits! You can-!
