What if the Roles were Reversed?
Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball. Dragon Ball belongs to the person who wrote Dragon Ball, Akira Toriyama.
Summary: What if the roles were reversed for Dragon Ball? What would Son Goku, Kuririn (Krillin), Kame-Sennin (Muten-Roshi), Briefs Bulma (Bulma Briefs as most like to use), and all the other normally good guys do if they were evil? What would all the normally evil guys do if they were good? Chapter one is Establishment of how the characters match up with their evil counterparts (This might be a long chapter and is not yet going to tell you what they are going to do as doers of evil or good. This is depending on which character we are looking at).
Part One: The normally good guys and how they would be if they were evil
Son Goku: Good Goku is pure of heart and extremely competitive, but is dedicated to fighting evil. He is fearless and usually goes headfirst into a fight rather he has time to train for it or not. He does not have a formal education but is very good at fighting. His good nature is due to him hitting his head in a freak accident where he fell off a cliff as an infant. Evil Goku (Kakarotto or Kakarot for story purposes) in the other hand would be the result of Goku not hitting his head after falling off that cliff. He might have been smarter and remembered his mission to kill all life on earth. How he would go about it would ultimately be up to him. He would still be strong, extremely competitive, and fight; however, he would be fighting off the good guys or what would normally be the bad guys in this case. He would still be fearless and go into fights headfirst, but he would not really be pure of heart and would have to spend more time traveling by foot as he cannot get 'the cloud' (I am just going to call it 'the cloud' for story purposes, I already know that it is called a Flying Nimbus, a Kinto'un, or a Somersault Could). (I am not going into Gohan or Goten because that is Dragon Ball Z, not Dragon Ball.)
Kuririn or Krillin: Good Kuririn starts out a good Gokus' rival and then quickly becomes his best friend. He starts out as just hating Goku over a rivalry but becomes friendly and giving later in the original story. He was a monk before going to Kame-Sennin to be trained. Evil Kuririn might not have gone to Kame-Sennin for training as he would have been more aggressive to the bullies who picked on him after snapping, he would have probably also have been a bit of a dick. Kuririn being evil might be a result of snapping at the people who did bully him. What he does to them, one will just have to learn in the next chapter.
Kame-Sennin or Muten-Roshi: Good Kame-Sennin is a perverted martial arts instructor and the inventor of the Kamehameha Technique. One should not be fooled by his frail look as he is a mighty warrior and trained Grandpa Son Gohan (Who will not be in the story) and Gyu-Mao (Ox-King). He trains Goku and Kuririn in the actual story. His failure with women is more comedic than anything else. Evil Kame-Sennin might be more aggressive as to his perversions, which would probably include but not be limited to harsh rape of pretty ladies; He would not have 'the cloud' at all, thus not being able to give Kakarot the cloud in the first place. He would probably make himself look frail to draw unsuspecting people in for what would look like an easy win. He would probably still be a perverted martial arts instructor, just without the humor.
Briefs Bulma or Bulma Briefs as most like to use: Good Bulma is an inventor who invents for the good of mankind. Most of her inventions are useful to her friends. She is also a rich girly girl and is due to be the next head to a company that invents technology; however, she does have some falts like being shallow, Loving to argue, complaining about not being pampered when she is out traveling with Goku, ect. She wants the perfect boyfriend who will love, protect her, pamper her, and be handsome all at the same time. In other words, the prince fucking charming that most girly girl's want and some grown women go to nasty bars and night clubs, hoping to meet. It is then that they turn down a decent guy, get really drunk, go home with a total dick head that will just leave the next day and never call you back; this is all just for sex. Evil Bulma would be a person who likes to build things that destroy other things. The only thing that would be consistent would be her building a Dragon Radar. She would be a girly girl but not to the Bulma extreme that she shows in the original story. Instead of arguing with a person on things that would make the good Bulma argue with a person, she will just walk away or just destroy them if she has one of her gadgets on her. She became evil from her parents being nice but not setting any type of structure or any system to teach her right from wrong. She was spoiled and her parents did not do anything to her for bad behavior and as a result she got it in her head that she can do anything without any consequences. She is still due to be the next head of a company that invents technology.
Yamcha and Pu'ar: Yamcha starts out bad and turns good, so this really should be in the evil guys and their good counterparts section, but he is still considered a good guy so without father ado, I will explain Yamcha here. Yamcha as a bad guy is a bandit or an outlaw who steals Dino Caps but slowly turns good in the story by following the good guys to try to steal the Dragon Balls and wish his fear of attractive women away. So for story purposes I am going to have him start out good then go evil. I would probably be new with him going evil as he was never truly evil in the first place; he just did bad things and did not really join a side until after season on of Dragon Ball. Yamcha as a good guy is what you would basically see in Dragon Ball Z without the Bulma influence as this is Dragon Ball and not Dragon Ball Z. Evil Yamcha is more assertive and is a lunatic. He becomes an evil, assertive, lunatic as a result of not being able to beat Kakarot at all and following them secretly trying to find a weakness only to fall in love with evil Bulma. After that he slowly starts to lose his mind and eventually becomes the evil, assertive, crazy Yamcha in this story. Pu'ar will always be his loyal friend no matter what and really does not have a side. Pu'ar is Pu'ar.
Chichi: Good Chichi is a pure hearted girl who is a bit of a wimp and is in love with Goku. Her father is Gyu-Mao. She later learns Martial arts as shown in the last tournament of Dragon Ball. She is a rather nice person, thought she dresses funny in my opinion. Evil Chichi is a bit of, well a bitch. She does not run from the dinos, she forces to teach her dad how to fight at an early age, she still likes Kakarot for unknown reasons. Her father is really nice to her but at the same time; he kind of ignores her unless she is learning what she forced him to teach her. Everything about her stems from the lack of attention her father gives her.
Gyu-Mao: Gyu-Mao does not really change sides but the personality is altered somewhat as he does not terrorize the town, he is kind, and he ignores his daughter to the point where she had to force him to teach her how to defend herself just to get some attention from him. His lack of attention to his daughter drove her to become evil. (Now this is not the case with every person, just some.)
Part Two: The normally evil guys and how they would be if they were good
Pilaf or Emperor Pilaf: Evil Pilaf is small Impish man who dreams of ruling the world, though he often fails because of Goku & Co. His two Minions are Mai and Soba (original name) or Shu. He seeks to reach his goal through the dragon balls and treats his minions rather badly for his own entertainment. Though this would normally sound sadistic, the actual story puts it in a fun humorous light. Mai is loyal and does whatever to please her boss, Shu on the other hand constantly apologizes for his actions and does not often get the job done as to fear for his own life. Good Pilaf wishes for world peace and wants to use the dragon balls to get that peace. Mai and Shu are his body guards.
Red Ribbon Army: The evil Red Ribbon Army tries to take over the planet trough the dragon balls. There are many people in the army but it would take too long to describe them all. The good Red Ribbon Army Likes to stand for peace and tries to protect and serve the world. They do not even look for the dragon balls but run into and get beat up by Kakarot anyway. You would have to wait next chapter to see what Kakarot does to them instead of just knocking them out or kicking there grenades back at them, cough cough Mercenary Tao Pai Pai cough cough.
Part Three: Neutral Party
Lunch: In the original story she get saved by Goku and kuririn. In this story, she just runs into Kakarot.
Oolong: He says a bit of a wimp, but he says at his place instead of going with Kakarot and Bulma.
Next chapter will actually start the story now that all the people in the story have a back ground and a reason as to why they are all going to be OC to what seems like an extreme. Next chapter will be soon.
