Yamcha Takes on The Database - Michael Myers

[SSJRuss]

Yamcha sprang forward, launching himself toward Dr. Eggman and his massive machine. Eggman grinned wickedly, and the Egg Yamcha Eradicator's arm swung out to meet him, knocking Yamcha back mid-air with surprising force. Yamcha barely caught himself, flipping mid-air to land back on his feet.

"Did you think you could just rush in and take me down?!” Eggman taunted from inside his mech, the dome glowing with a sinister red hue. With a quick flick of his controls, Eggman fired a barrage of rockets from the mech’s shoulder cannons.

Yamcha dove to the side, narrowly dodging as the rockets exploded behind him. By the time Yamcha made it to the other side of the room, Eggaman followed up his attack with laser beams, forcing him to zigzag through the warehouse. Each beam ripped through chunks of metal off the walls and filling the air with smoke and fire. Yamcha could feel the heat of each shot grazing him. He was fast, but Eggman's mech showed it could match him move for move.

“Gonna have to do better than that!” Yamcha shouted, closing the distance once again and leaping up to strike at the mech’s armored chest. His fists hit hard with one of the mech's legs, but the metal barely dented. Eggman cackled and swung his arm low, colliding with Yamcha and sent him crashing into the far wall. Not letting him rest, Eggman followed up with another wave of rockets.

The ground around Yamcha exploded. He avoided the worst of the blast, but with the wind knocked out of him, he wasn't fast enough to avoid it the attack.

Smoke and fire bellowed through the warehouse. "Come on, Yamcha!" Eggman’s taunting voice boomed. "Didn’t think you’d hide from little old me!" Yamcha heard a hum as the mech’s scanners detected his energy signature through the smoke.

Gotta be smarter, Yamcha thought, a plan forming in his mind. As the mech’s red scanners zeroed in on his energy, he smirked, generating an afterimage just as Eggman fired another laser beam. The beam cut through the haze and Yamcha's afterimage, Eggman shouting in surprise. “What the—?”

With the brief distraction, Yamcha appeared off to the side and launched a Spirit Ball at the mech, steering it right toward the cockpit dome. The glowing orb hit the transparent shield around Eggman’s seat, sparking as it collided, but the dome held firm.

Eggman’s grin returned. “Nice try, but you’ll need more than that to break through my defenses!”

Yamcha raised his hand, smirking. “Don’t count me out yet.” With a flick of his fingers, another Spirit Ball from behind the mech rammed into the dome, joining the first in hammering down against the cockpit.

The two Spirit Balls pressed harder and harder, their energy thrashing against the dome as cracks began to spread across its surface. Eggman felt a pit in his stomach form.

“No!” Eggman shouted in anger. “I’ve come too far to let you—activate overshield!”

A burst of red energy radiated from the mech, deflecting both Spirit Balls and dissipating them in the thickening smoke. The energy pulsed through the warehouse, then faded. When the smoke settled, Eggman’s laughter echoed through the room. “That’s the best you’ve got? Face it, Yamcha—you’re outclassed!”

"KAME-"

Eggman's dome lit up with a sudden energy reading. It was coming from— above!

Yamcha hovered in the air above the mech, hands clasped around the spark of his final attack. "HAME-"

“Eat this. HA!” Yamcha shouted, firing the Kamehameha down at full force. The blast smashed through the dome, shattering it entirely and splitting the mech in two. A powerful explosion followed, with metal parts and circuits and fire flying from the area. Eggman screams died by the sound of the mech erupting into flames.

Yamcha hit the ground, breathing heavily as the fire and smoke filled the wreckage. “Another... win for Yamcha,” he rose his a fist in victory before staggering, drained of energy. Through the haze, he heard a familiar voice.

“Yamcha!”

It sound like Puar...

“Just... need a second.” Yamcha sank to the ground, passing out as he was drained of energy.

A few weeks later... 

Halloween night in Khazan’s bustling 'Fiction End' neighborhood was in full swing. Cobwebs hung between flickering street lamps, and jack-o'-lanterns grinned from every windowsill. Costumed crowds milled about, each figure more elaborate than the next, and Yamcha strolled through the lively scene with Puar and his hot new girlfriend, Jennifer Check, by his side.

The three of them were decked out in costume, Yamcha proudly wearing his old bandit gear, a nod to his roots as a desert thief. Jennifer rocked a dark and glamorous vampire queen look—high collar, velvet dress, and blood-red lipstick that gave her an air of dangerous allure. Puar had gone for the classic: a cute, oversized pumpkin suit that nearly swallowed up his tiny floating form.

Since his battle with Eggman, Yamcha had recovered thanks to Puar’s quick thinking and a Senzu Bean. That whole ordeal won him two victories, which definitely gave him a boost in confidence. His win-loss ratio was in a better spot, but he had to admit that it was still embarrassing. Dr. Eggman nearly had him.

"Yamcha, are you okay?" Jennifer asked, giving him a concerned glance. "You stopped talking."

"Yeah," he replied, though he glanced at his hands, brow furrowed. "Just… thinking I need to get back into training. Pick up a few new moves."

“More moves?” Puar piped up, grinning. “Come on, you already know the coolest ones!”

Jennifer laughed, leaning into him playfully. “You know, it was your moves that made me notice you, Yamcha. I saw your fight with Drakkon and thought it was impressive how you refused to quit. I think you're overthinking again. Besides-" Jennifer took Yamcha's hand in hers, "-you already got the girl."

Yamcha blushed, rubbing the back of his neck. "Oh, well, you know, I just want be stay in shape for you, baby," he chuckled, trying to sound casual.

Jennifer smiled as they continued their walk. As the night drew on, the crowd around them grew thinner, the once-bustling streets became strangely quiet. Shadows stretched longer, swallowing the alleyways, and a chill seeped into the air.

“Uh…guys?” Puar hovered nervously. “Where is everyone?”

Yamcha was about to comment, when a dark figure appeared at the edge of a streetlamp’s glow. A tall man in a mechanic’s jumpsuit and a bone-white mask.

Michael Myers.

“Oh no, no way,” Yamcha murmured, turning back. “Uh, guys... let’s... maybe let’s head this way.”

"This way!” Jennifer called, walking swiftly to a better lit street nearby. They followed her, but when they reached the next corner, she was gone.

“Jennifer?” Yamcha called, looking around. “Where did she…?”

The street lights turned off in unison. Puar and Jennifer were nowhere in sight.

Alone, Yamcha found himself face to face with the dark. The only light was of the Halloween moon. Yamcha tried to calm the panic in his chest and feel for energy around him. Yamcha’s fists clenched again, steeling himself as he could make out the shimmer of Myers' blade just ahead.

“Alright, freak,” Yamcha said, settling into his stance, a grin spreading on his face, “you’re about to get a taste of the Wolf!”

Halloween edition of the Yamcha Arc. Awesome.  I think he was lucky to get by Robotnik, but he should be able to stop Myers here. Also, him being so excited to have Jennifer Check as a girlfriend, unaware that she is a succubus is peak Yamcha.

[Macklemore]

Agreed, Yamcha shoud have the bare minimum problems dealing with Myers here. If he has the sword, he already fought the bear, and the bear is stronger than Myers so he has that going on for him. Also he is more powerful than Myers and more skilled, so there's really no way for him to lose this.

[RakaiThwei]

Yamcha pretty much takes this.

I'm so glad you agree, because I was jazzed when I thought of it!

I mean, Myers is hard to kill sure, but I agree that Yamcha takes him easy. Really, Yamcha could move so fast that Myers wouldn't even be able to see him beat his ass.

Good set-up, Russ, and another good story for Yamcha. And, yep, the fact that Yamcha's now dating Jennifer Check just about tracks with his love life, for better and worse.   

As for the match, I just saw the first Halloween movie a few weeks back, so I now have some firsthand idea of what Michael's capable of. With Myers' damage soak and apparent ability to disappear from direct eyesight (both of which I imagine Myers became even more potent with in the sequels), he might at least initially catch Yamcha off-guard. Yamcha's still far too fast and powerful to get killed here, though, so the moment he blasts Michael away, Myers might flee to seek out easier prey. 

In fact, Myers might not have wanted a piece of Jennifer in the first place, either.

Don't think I know anyone who hasn't seen the first movie, so it is interesting to see your perspective considering I've seen the whole franchise. I'd say he doesn't have many more outlandish feats beside what you saw, so I think it matters little. Yamcha still blows him away. Though I love the idea of Myers getting a few stabs/slashes in.
