DRAGONBALL REALITY
AN:Ok, two things i would like to cover, despite various similiarities between this story and sanne-chan's story, this is an original piece of work. It just has a similiar setting. If that is not. So please, let this story play out before you judge it, and you'll find out just how different the two are. Thank you.
Chapter 1
Eric looked in absolute wonder at the helmet lying on his bed. It was a virtual reality helmet made for the latest line of games. VR games. Eric was a rabid fan of all things Dragonball, which was why he had bought this helmet. A new Virtual
Reality Dragonball game had been released, with over fifty planets to visit, and the ability to customize your character however the hell you wanted. It was called Dragonball reality.
Eric was nineteen, having just moved into his own apartement last year. He had since had a failed relationship with a very attractive young woman, who had only been dating him to get near his cousin. Since then he had had a bit of trouble
extending trust to anything, even his cousin. He had dark brown hair that was kind of messy, and was 6.2. He had blue eyes. Now he had his VR helmet, and his copy of Dragonball Reality.
"Ok, lets have some fun, but first." Eric muttered as he grabbed his phone. He quickly dialed the number of his good freind, Carl.
"Hello?" Carl said after a few rings.
"Its me, Eric." Eric said, then he said "I don't suppose you could log on to DBR eh?"
"Of course i could! Finally got a copy for yourself huh? Took you long enough." Carl said.
"Yeah yeha, see you in the game." Eric said as he hung up, then he walked over to his bed and lay back. It was a good idea to either sit in a chair, or lay down in order to avoid falling down. He pulled on the helmet and pressed the little green button on the side. Then he was flying through blue space before he came to a screen that said "You do not have any characters. Would you like to make a character?"
"Hell yeah!" Eric replied.
"Pick a race." The voice said as a list appeared. The list was as follows.
Saiyan
Human
Namek
Eric picked saiyan, then looked at the tail that had just sprang out of his backside. "Hah, i gotta tail." Eric declared with a smirk. A few other questions followed, mainly outfit customization. He wore a pair blue jeans, a brown t-shirt with a black
leather vest like some bikers wear. Next came the technique package. "Lets see what we've got." Eric said slowly. He could go with Goku, Picollo, Vegeta, Tien, Freiza, and custom.
"Custom..." Eric said deciding he wanted a unique set of abilities.
"Pick five techniques." The voice said as a list of techniques from various characters, and some moves that weren't in the custom packages, appeared in front of him. Eric sonsidered his options for a moment. He wanted to have vercitility on his
side. He needed to have firepower, but also a means of escape should things go poorly. So he went for Final Flash, Solar Flare, Destructo Disk, Kaio-Ken, Dragon Fist.
"Pick a name." The voice instructed.
"Eric." Eric said.
"Very well, enjoy the game."
Eric blinked, and found himself standing in West City just in front of Capsule Corp. It looked utterly life like, down to the smallest details. Eric blinked again and slowly turned in a full circle. He had known the game would look good, but this was
far better than he had thought. "Lets hope that the rest of the game is as good." Eric said to himself.
"Hey Eric." A voice said from the left. Eric turned to find Carl. Carl had sandy blond hair and green eyes. He had a scouter over one eye, and was dressed in a set of blue and white armour ontop of a black body suit that came down to the knees.
"Nice look Carl." Eric commented cheerfully.
"Thanks, so what do you think of the game?" Carl asked as he glanced around nervously.
"Its good and all, but why are you so nervous?" Eric said.
The only reply he got was a whispered "Shit! Hide!" Then Carl dashed away with Eric close behind, not quite sure what was going on.
Dude whats going on here!?" Eric hissed as he followed Carl around the side of a truck.
Carl glanced around the side and said "She's stalking me."
"Who?" Eric asked.
"My ex! She refuses to leave me alone until i pay her for the damages her car took when she tried to run over my cat and hit a tree instead!" Carl said.
"Oh." Eric said. That made no sense to him.
Carl's ex, Sharlene, was one of those women who were convinced that they should never have to pay a penny for anything. She had hooked up with Carl six months back, and had then began draining Carl's wallet at a rate that would have
terrified Bill Gates. Needless to say he had dumped her pretty fast in the hopes of avoiding bankruptcy.
"There is only one place in the game where she won't go, the feild where Goku kicked Nappa's ass around the block." Carl comented.
"Why won't she go there?" Eric asked, not quite sure he was enjoying his first game experience.
"Saibamen, she can't stand them. But before we make a break for it i feel i should warn you. She doesn't bug me verbally, she tries to blow me up, beat me to a pulp, knock me into buildings, that sort of thing." Carl said peeking around the
truck once again.
"Alright, how do i attack with my specials?" Eric asked. If there was the risk of an attack from a crazed cat killing wallet draining fit throwing woman, then he wanted to know how to defend himself.
"Just take the pose of the attack, yell its name, or think it if your being stealthy, and fire. You can mentally gauge how much of your power goes into the blast, but be careful, she can easily overpower you blast to blast. Regular blasts are pretty
much the same, without the posing and yelling. Unless you feel compelled to yell something like my EX. She usually yells, DIE PIG DIE, among other things." Carl explained.
"Oooook." Eric said, then he said "Lets make a break for it then, you go first get her attention. While she's distracted i'll jump out and throw a Final Flash and then we can run like the devil is on our tails!"
"Which she will be." Carl muttered, then he said "Alright lets get this over with!" Then, mustering all his courage Carl sprang out moving incredibly fast, to fast for Eric to track at his current level. But Sharlene saw him, the ki beam that flew by
his head was proof of that.
Eric watched where the blast came from an sprang out whirling with his hands stretched outwards, he shouted "FINAL FLASH!!!!" He mentally pushed a decent portion of energy nto the attack, but kept enough to make a quick getaway.
A large beam of golden ki flew from his hands and struck the poor girl head on with a voilent blast which flung Sharlened head first through brick fence that was behind her, then he ran like hell in the direction Carl had gone. He knew Sharlene was mad at him because a second later a ki beam flew by his ear, missing by less than an inch. He ran faster.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eric and Carl took a moment to catch their breath as they stood next to a cliff on the saiba plains. "Next time you need to escape that woman, i aint helping." Eric declared rubbing the spot where a ki beam had struck hius backside.
"Hey, its not my fault she stalks me everywhere!" Carl replied.
"Yeah, i know. That doesn't make it any more pleasent." Eric replied.
"Hey, i know how to make it up to you, lets go have a round with Raditz, he's in the next feild over. Sharlene counts it as part of this feild, and does not go there even if i'm present!" Carl explained.
"Fine." Eric said.
Fifteen minutes later he respawned in front of Capsule Corp, along with Carl. Raditz had toyed with them for a minute or so, until Carl had tried to grab his tail and got his backside instead. It was at that point that Raditz had gone into a rage and
sent both of them into a cliff before blowing the whole area to bits. Neither of them had escaped.
To make it up to Eric, Carl had given the teen a set of armour, much like wha Nappa wore only it had a full black bod suit underneath. He also gave him a scouter, not quite as good as his own, bt good enough for the moment.
Eric logged out after tinkering around a bit. "That was fun, i think i'll play again tommorow." Eric said with a smile.
