Been a while since I did a fanfic, and this time it's Dragonball and Astroboy! Probably because both of them are coming out with movies this year that I'm excited for. I guess the reason I stopped was because all I did was Naruto, and I'm pretty much done with Naruto. I'm cracked out, I know, but hey! Anything to entertain myself. Don't forget to give me plenty of reviews and make my pitiful life that much more meaningful.

Disclaimer: I don't own Astroboy or Dragonball, but I thought it'd be fun to mix things up.

Chapter 1: Mt. Paozu

A small hut sat on what seemed to be the only flat spot in the entire mountain range, practically abandoned for what seemed like ages, filled with various things from training supplies to fish bones.

A gust of smoke and a swoop of colored streaks sped to the area in a lightning-fast pace, creating the sound of jets loud enough to scare whatever various critters were left around the hut from the sight. The streak slowed to a hault, revealing a small metallic boy with fire shooting out of his large red boots. The boy couldn't be a day over 8, the metal was shiny like new, giving the boy a luster of the newest factory-model car, glistening with the shine of the sun in the middle of a summer's day.

There was a sort of angry glow to his eyes, though. He was searching for something.

Where is it?! He thought to himself. I need to find that Dragonball....

His eyes shifted like an LCD screen to a sort of radar with yellow blips on it. Seven of them. Each of them indicated a dragonball, a magical artifact said to have extraordinary wish-granting powers when gathered to a single spot. Legend told of a giant dragon shooting from the magic spheres like a comet from outer space, and the dragon granted any wish presented to him. What could a boy like that want with a wish from a dragon?

"Astro, did you find it, yet?"

"I haven't," He started, and then paused. "Wait a second..."

He found a pile of random junk, dug around it, and pulled out a small, tangerine-sized orange sphere, glowing with the shine of the four stars inside.

"Got it," He said. "I'm heading back, right now."

With that, he jumped into the air and activated the rockets all at once, blasting him off into the air and away from the sight.

End of Chapter 1

I know it was short, but I guess that's the best you get for now! Any ways, I'll be sure to keep more consistant with this one because it's not Naruto.

Till next time!
