CH.1 THE LAST STRAW
"Walk back then," Yamcha said.
"Fine I will," Bulma fumed.
She wouldn't have to walk if she could fly. She wouldn't be left out if she had powers and could fight. All they used her for was her brains. Then when they were finished with her and had used what she offered she was left behind for her own good.
Before she had been content with thehand she had been dealt. This, however, was the last straw.
High above the ground in a Capsule Hover Copter she pushed her filthy hair out of her eyes. She scanned the ground. She had never gone this long with out taking only the best care of herself.
She clicked her Dragon Radar. Six gleaming Dragonballs were stored away in the cargo hold. It had taken all her whiles and many of her custom made Capsules to obtain them. This would be the first time she would be searching for them all on her own.
Now with only one left she was that much closer to her goals. She wasn't far from the last Dragonball. The signal seemed to be coming from the forest below her.
When the last of the three wishes were used the Dragonballs became stone and flew all over the globe, explosively. She figured if it landed in the forest it would be buried. Maybe in the ground or in a tree. She had the equipment. If it was the only thing she had to deal with, with this one, she would be lucky.
Landing carefully between the trees, as close as she would get, she sat behind the control handle and centered herself. She found it easier, lately, to go into dangerous situations with a clear mind.
Climbing out of the Hover Copter, with nothing but the radar and a stun gun she tracked down the last Dragonball.
She was right: a tree.
The Dragonball had almost completely buried itself in the trunk of a gigantic tree. She was going to need a laser cutter for this. She was happy she had no giant birds or dinosaurs or giant sea creatures to contend with.
Returning a few minutes later to the tree with equipment, she carefully cut the Dragonball from the tree. She knew the Dragonballs were all but indestructible, but she wasn't taking any chances. Stowing her precious cargo carefully shegot behind the control handle, and for the first time in a long time, sighs and relaxes.
No one knew she was searching for the Dragonballs. If she had to she would take them to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. That way the sky would turn black in there and no one would know.
Suddenly feeling exhausted she exited her Capsule Copter. Pushing a button on the side near the cockpit door, a puff of smoke appeared and the Hover Copter disappeared. All that was left was a little capsule.
She picked it up and slid it into a specially made belt for the Capsules. Choosing another she clicked it and tossed it onto the ground. An identical puff of smoke appeared and in its place an entire house stood. It wasn't one of Capsule Corps latest but it was one of its greatest. An entire house with all the amenities. She had it fully stocked with anything she could possibly want to drink or eat in their own capsules inside the cupboards. She hadn't known how long this would take.
Being a certified genius meant preparing for every eventuality or possibility and knowing how to.
She entered her house, locked the door behind her and threw herself on the bed. She had what she needed now.
