Author's Note: This story takes place many years after Dragonball GT. All of the old Z warriors are dead from old age, even Goku. Earth has been taken over by a tryannical being from outer space named Kane. Although Kane looks human, he shows absolutly no mercy as he slowly takes control of the world. And now our story begins:
The young man looked around the room. The bed was small but looked comfy. He had been traveling for what seemed like a long time now and it felt good to finally rest. But he couldn't sleep. He just sat in a corner of the room and thought. He looked down at the floor and saw his small bag, which had everything in it he ever owned. All except for one thing, his sword. As he looked at his sword he began to think about the past. "With this sword, I will take upon the task of revenge!" His brother had proclaimed so long ago. "Now brother, the task is mine." The young man said. The hotel keeper looked at his new guest as he came down the steps in the morning. He was a young man, couldn't be more than 18, and he had long, flowing, black hair. He was also wearing a long, dark green trenchcoat and under it, what seemed to be some kind of weird armor. The thing that stood out the most was the large sword that the young man wore on his back.
"Hey kid," The hotelkeeper said politely, "How's it going? Did you sleep well?" "Yeah I slept all right." said the young man who immeadiatly yawned. "Well kids like you need their rest, all right?" The hotel keeper said. "I'm just fine pops!" The youth said. "Do you know where I might pick up some traveling food? "Yeah sure. There's a fruit stand outside." The hotel keeper said. "But the prices are pretty high. Damn Kane and all." "Thanks pops." The young man said. He went outside to the fruit stand. As he was buying some food that would last him to the next town, he spotted two kids, brothers, that were playing what seemed to be like tag. The young man smiled as he watched the two kids play. But his smile immediatly turned into an angry frown as the two kids were pushed out of the way by soldiers of Kane. "Out of the way you little brats!" The largest one said as he pushed them into the dirt. "Man, Kane's soldiers are real jerks." The fruit vendor said very quietly to the young man. The soldiers went into the hotel that the young man had just come out of and immediatly the young man heard a commotion inside. The teen took his bag and went back to the hotel. "What do you mean pay?!" The large soldier said again. "We're the ones who protect you old man!" "You protect? That's a laugh!" The young man said loudly. "Who asked you, you little brat!" The large soldier said. "Get'em boss!" Another soldier said. "If you want me then come outside." The young man said. "Fine I'll teach you to mess with the mighty Straug." Straug said. The two met in the street with Straug's men all behind him. "Yeah boss, teach this kid a lesson." Said a soldier. "Yeah yeah. Just give me a minute." Straug said. Straug pushed a button on the device covering his eye. It flickered for a moment and then stopped. Straug laughed as he looked at the readout. "Ha ha ha ha ha! Power level 10!" He said with a sneer. "I'm afraid your dead meat kid!" "Take your best shot Fatboy!" The young man said. Straug ran at the youth and proceeded to try to knock the smart mouth right off him. Trouble was that the boy was avoiding all of his punches. Then the boy grabbed Straug's fist and began to crush it. "So this is all you can do huh? Just bully innocent people?" The young man said. "OWWW! OWWWWW! Please...let me go!" Straug pleaded. "Why?" The youth said. "The fun's just getting started."
Then an aura of energy surrounded the boy, and the image on Straug's eye device began to flicker again. "No! This can't be! 5000! 10000! 200000!" Straug said in fear just as the device exploded. "Aw too bad! And I was just getting started." The boy said. Then the teen kicked Straug hard in the chest and he collided into his men. "Don't just stand there you idiots! Fire! FIRE!" Straug yelled. The soldiers began to aim the cannons on their arms (Straug did not have one) and were just about to fire when the young man, faster than lightning, ran right at them and took out his sword. No one could see just what was happening but it looked like just a bunch of flashes of light. Then the young man stopped and put his sword back in its sheath. He then turned around and looked at the soldiers. All of them stood stunned, then one by one they all fell over, dead. Straug stood and looked at his dead men and then at the boy who had caused it. Then his armor begin to peel slowly off him in neatly sliced shards as he looked at himself to see if he was dead. The whole town laughed at the sight of him but the boy just looked at him with a serious face on.
"You'll be sorry. You just wait, I'll get you for this!" Straug said as he turned around and flew away. The hotel keeper came out and thanked the young man as he shook his hand. The kids were jumping up and down right by him as the whole town came out to thank him for getting rid of Straug and his men. "Well it was really nothing." The young man said, going just slightly red in the face. "Well you'll always have a home here if you ever decide to settle down." The mayor said. "Thanks, I appreciate the thought but I still have a long way to go." Said the young man. "Just tell us please young man," The hotel keeper said. "What is your name?" "My name," the young man said, "is Slade."
