Prologue to Story
23 years ago, a strange, rounded Spacepod of some sort landed in the middle of a dense forest on Planet Earth. Inside was an infant, with a golden, ape-like tail. The explosion was only heard by one person, named James. James was a Martial Artist, and knew a lot about it. He went to the site of the explosion, and noticed the infant… This infant was taken in by James, and was hereby named Ethan. Ethan was violent at first, but he soon grew out of it, and began living the normal life of a child, except for the fact that James had begun teaching Ethan about Martial Arts.
One day, 8 years later, James was tragically crushed by a moon monster, and Ethan was left in the forest to fend for himself. But, for an 8 year old, he had incredible strength deep within him. A girl by the name of Yuki wandered through the forest, looking for a mythical ball known as the Dragon Ball. Ethan had been given a Dragon Ball, one with two stars on it, by James, and Ethan cherished it. Yuki found Ethan, and they decided to journey across Earth to find the 7 Dragon Balls and get their wish granted by the dragon's magic.
Ethan and Yuki went through many crazy adventures, which included taking down a private army, known as the Blue Bowtie Band, they had to take down a bandit in the desert known as Masmik, and eventually, they found the 7 Dragon Balls. Yuki got her wish, which was to be the smartest person on Earth, and the Dragon Balls scattered. Ethan decided to go train under a hermit he had met early in his journey, Sensei Sayaka, the Turtle Hermit. He trained along with his soon-to-be best friend, Miko, who was a small boy just like him. Later, in the 20th annual Martial Arts World Tournament, Ethan and Miko entered, and had to fight the Crane Hermit's apprentices, Evan and Sileanic. Ethan defeats them both, and fights Miko in the semi-finals of the tournament. After defeating Miko, Ethan fights Sayaka herself, and barely manages to win.
After his victory in the tournament, Ethan realized that there was no way that he could win every battle, so he traveled the globe in search for more training. But, as he traveled around, he soon realized that the Blue Bowtie Band were up to no good, and they were trying to attain the Dragon Balls. Ethan fought many different cyborgs from the BBB, and had to fight their top androids, such as Android 1, Android 5, and Android 10. After defeating the top androids, Doctor Drudgy, the leader of the BBB, released Android X, a prototype android designed to collect the Dragon Balls at all costs, and destroy anything in its way. Ethan alone could not beat this android, so he had to travel atop of Sama's Tower, and get training from her.
After attaining speed and powerhouse training from Sama, Ethan tried taking on Android X once more, who had attained 6 of the 7 Dragon Balls, but still failed. In the end, Miko, Masmik, Evan, and Sileanic all had to team up with Ethan in order to defeat Android X. With a final devastating attack, they managed to put a critical blow on the android, and defeat him before he collected all of the Dragon Balls. Doctor Drudgy, with no other options, released his ultimate creation at the time - Android Beta. Android Beta searched the planet far and wide, and terrorized all of its citizens, even managing to nearly kill Ethan and his friends…
The warriors trained under Sama once more, because she had called them all up there. She first revealed the fact that she had magical beans known as Senzu Beans that could restore one's health back to normal. She also revealed that she had a magical pot that could transport one to another dimension, where they could have the chance of drinking the Sacred Water to become much stronger. Ethan, Masmik, Evan, and Miko journeyed into the pot together in order to find the Sacred Water, and after a seemingly-endless journey, they managed to find it, and all of them got the drink out of it. They all went to battle Android Beta once more, but he was still too strong. Miko and Evan were killed, which angered Ethan into doing a Kamehameha Wave, which almost did nothing to Android Beta.
In the end of the battle, and full moon rose, and Ethan turned into a giant golden ape-monster, and he managed to defeat Android Beta… Ethan, Masmik, and Sileanic used the Dragon Balls to wish Miko and Evan back to life, and everything returned to peace.
Ethan was recruited atop of Sama's Tower, and she sent him up to the lookout above it, where the Guardian of Earth lived… The Guardian of Earth, Hammur, told Ethan that he had to train under him, for a great evil was approaching. Ethan trained under Hammur for a month, and then Demon King Keonde, Hammur's evil half, appeared, and Ethan had to fight him. The battle was long and intense, and Ethan barely survived, but he defeated Demon King Keonde with a new attack he developed during Hammur's training, the Masenko.
Demon King Keonde was defeated, but not killed. He vowed to return someday to kill Ethan and destroy the Earth. Ethan returned to Hammur's Lookout, to complete his training… He did complete his training, and for the next few years, he trained on his own, until the next Martial Arts World Tournament. Miko, Evan, Masmik, and Sileanic all entered, all now adults, and Ethan returned and entered, he too an adult. But, little did they know that Keonde had too entered… In the first round, Evan and Masmik fought, and Masmik was defeated when his leg was broken. Sileanic fought Miko, and Sileanic lost. Miko fought Keonde, and Miko lost… And finally, it was Ethan versus Keonde… They fought intensely, but Ethan still won… After the tournament, Ethan bid farewell to his friends once more, and returned home to train, for he needed to be strong if Keonde ever returned to challenge him…
