Once Upon A Time
Once upon a time...
There were two boys.
They
trained hard and long,
Hoping to be the strongest...
Wait...back
up a sec...
Twice upon a time...
So many years ago...
And
this very moment.
First there was Goku,
And me,
Kuririn.
Now it's his son Goten.
And Goten's friend
Trunks.
The difference is like Romeo and Juliet versus West
Side Story.
We were thirteen and fourteen.
Them?
Seven and
eight!
Is that crazy? Of course.
We trained for fun?
Them?
Oh, nothin' much.
Just tryin' to save the world!
But the
REALLY crazy thing?
We took out trainint very seriously.
The
boys?
All they wanna do is play.
I mean, Kami forbid they
try!
Please forgive me for wanting to live!
They're playing
with lives, here!
And trust me, death ain't fun!
Mommies
don't help.
"Oh, don't hurt my baby!
He can save the
world!
But just give him his way!"
Right. Sure.
Ohhh-kay.
World saviors don't get their way.
Trust me.
I
know.
I know they're kids.
I was, too.
I wish they
weren't.
All they do is brag and whine.
So, two boys train
to become stronger.
To show off, to play.
Forget the
world!
They're stars today.
In ways, I can see
Me an' my
old buddy in them.
Training and working.
Striving for their
goals.
Still, wish they'd get a little more serious.
I
mean, c'mon-
This is my third death...
Sigh. Why me?
