A lone figure moved gracefully in an open field. He waved his arms and legs through the air as he slowly turned and twisted his body. A bead of sweat slid from his short-cut black hair to the brown skin of his forehead. "Whew!" he exclaimed, lifting his black sleeveless shirt to wipe his face. "It's warm out today, I'm sweating and I haven't even finished my katas." He scratched his chin in thought, "I don't get nearly as tired as I did before I mastered my ki."

He walked over to a truck and drank from a bottle of water, just as the hairs n the back of his neck stood up. "There's a huge ki on its way here, fast!" He looked around, and ran over to some bushes on the edge of a tree line. He dove over the bushes, finding a large stone on the other side to greet his head, knocking him unconscious.

When he opened his eyes, he felt a lot of ki, very close. Looking out from behind the bushes, he saw a tall, rough looking man with spiky black hair down to his calves, a slightly shorter man with spiky black hair on his head, wearing an orange sleeveless gi, and, a green man wearing a purple suit. Green! Was the first thought that came to his mind, but he was still surveying the area. There were some clothes on the ground, a huge hole in the ground, and pieces of his truck were scattered over the ground.

Suddenly, the scene registered in his mind. "That's Goku, Piccolo, and Radditz, from Dragonball Z, and I'm hallucinating."

Just then, the three figures turned towards him and he heard the words, "Looks like one of your friends wants to join us."

Knowing now that he couldn't get away, and, in a way somehow, not wanting to, he stepped out from behind the bushes, and walked up to Goku and Piccolo. "My name's Myst." He introduced himself.

"And his power level's only four hundred. You'll all still lose." Radditz clicked off his scouter with a smirk on his face.

"That's Piccolo," the man in the orange gi nodded towards the green man, who'd gone back to watching Radditz, "And I'm Goku, can you fight?"

"I can hold my own. What's the story with him?" Myst nodded towards Radditz, "Wants to kill us all over a bad hair cut?"

""Watch your tongue!" Radditz yelled at Myst, before going into a fighting stance.

"Look out!" Piccolo yelled, and before Myst realized it, Goku and Piccolo had been elbowed to the ground, and he caught a knee to the face, which sent him flipping backwards through the air.

After hitting the ground hard, Myst got back up, seeing Piccolo and Goku both already throwing fists and feet at Radditz. I've got to wait for the right time to attack he thought. When Radditz knocked Piccolo away, Myst saw his opportunity. He jumped at Radditz with a kick aimed at his head. Just before the kick connected, Radditz took off into the air, and Myst twisted to land on his feet, seeing Goku and Piccolo fly up after him.

For the next minute and a half, a frustrated Myst watched from the ground. This ended when two energy beams shot Goku and Piccolo to the ground. "You guys alright?" Myst turned around to ask as a look of shock hit his face. Piccolo's arm had been shot off.

"Excuse me, but has anyone seen my arm? You can't miss it, its green! Ha ha ha!" Radditz joked as he landed on the ground behind Myst.

Hearing that made Myst mad, "I'll buy you guys some time!" he told Goku and Piccolo. He turned around to Radditz, and jumped at him, this time landing before doing a crescent kick across his face. His following three punches, two kicks, uppercut, and elbow were dodged. His last punch was caught and held with almost no effort. Radditz twisted his arm and kicked him in the ribs. Myst fell and saw Radditz about to hit him with an energy attack when Radditz stopped suddenly.

"I got your tail!" Goku said as Radditz dropped to the ground. Myst backed away from them and stood near Piccolo who seemed to be gathering energy in one hand with two fingers extended to his forehead.

The Special Beam Cannon! I remember this. Now we can get this fight over with and I can…oh no, this is the first time. This fight is far from over. Myst thought, looking between Piccolo and Goku and Radditz. "Goku! Don't listen to him!" he was too late, Goku had just let go of Radditz's tail and Radditz stood up to elbow him to the ground.

"Argh!" Goku said as he hit the ground, "You said you'd leave us alone!"

Radditz stepped on Goku's chest hard, "I would have said anything to get you to let go, brother! Now I'm going to kill you and there's nothing your friends can do to stop me!" No sooner did the words leave his mouth than his head jerked to the side. Myst's fist followed through on the impact, and Radditz had time to not only look back to see who had thrown the punch, but to grab Myst by the arm and throw him into a tree.

Myst was able to get up off the ground enough to see Radditz hold a hand out towards him, and fire off an energy blast. Myst dodged to the side of the blast, but not far enough as he got caught in it enough to knock him out.

Coming out of a deep sleep, Myst opened his eyes, "Ohhh, man, that was a weird dream; I must've worked out too hard."

A voice started talking to him, "You're finally awake, and you missed all the action."

Myst's eyes went wide and he sat up. "Piccolo! What happened?" He surveyed the scene, Goku lay dying, and Radditz as well, a little boy was by Goku's side crying. Is that Gohan? He's bigger than I thought he'd be.

"The little, Goku's son over there, he broke Radditz's armor, his power is amazing, but uncontrolled. The world is safe for now. But in one year there'll be others. You should try to keep up by then." Piccolo filled him in.

Myst stood up slowly, "No time like the present to start training. I'll find you in a year." He smirked and walked off. Wow, it wasn't a dream. His walk turned into a run. I can't wait until next year, I'll be ready. His run turned into a full sprint, and he was gone before the flying Capsule Corps ship arrived.

No one made mention of him to the rest of the Z crew.
