The shadow puffs up, ready to start arguing, but Nita's already stopped paying attention to her, closing to mirror Gohan and throwing an experimental punch with superhuman speed and very superhuman strength, which the child-shadow blocks, face twisted by anger.

"Ordinarily I wouldn't hit a kid," she says to adult Gohan, immensely cheerful that she gets to uncomplicatedly hit something, "but I think the physical manifestation of a person's worst urges is exempt from the 'no kicking down' rule."
