Episode 1: Birth of Team Chronicle
Narrator: Angels. Since the dawn of religion, mankind has been fascinated by these beings of incredible power. However, what most people don't realize is that angels do exist serve God as protectors of mankind from the forces of Hell. However, angels still struggle with temptation, just as man does; & sometimes, even angels fall…

Mark (narrating): Well, after the near-death experience on Planet Vegeta last month, things have certainly been looking up for the Eds & I. Bardock & the other Sayian survivors have been adapting to life in the Cul-De-Sac faster than I thought they would, all things considered. Gine is currently looking into job offers, as are Bardock's squad. Meanwhile, Bardock has joined the training sessions between the four of us; we've learned a lot from each other. Today, the entire Cul-De-Sac has a surprise for our new editions to the neighborhood…
Jimmy & Sarah are leading the Sayians through a forest near the Cul-De-Sac; the latter aliens are all wearing blindfolds.
Gine: Are you sure this is the right way?
Jimmy: Oh yes. It's just a little further.
Bardock: I swear, if this is another of Eddy's pranks…
Sarah: Alright, we're here! You can take off your blindfolds now.
The Sayians do so, & see the residents of the Cul-De-Sac, standing in front of a dome-shaped house. A banner above them reads "Welcome to the Neighborhood!"
Cul-De-Sac Residents: SURPRISE!
Bardock: What's all this?!
Gine: You bought us a house?!
Mark: Yeah, it's much better than sleeping outside!
Double D: It's a Capsule Corp. brand home. This all came from one tiny capsule! Amazing technology, I must say.
Eddy: It wasn't cheap; all of us kids pooled all our allowance for a month to get this for ya, so you gotta like it!
Gine: This…this is amazing! Thank you all so much!
Kevin: Then what're we standing out here for? Let's head inside & party!
Rolf: Yes! Rolf has many delicacies & stories from his home country to share!
Ed: PARTY, YAY!
Mark: Alright, let's celebrate!
Later, everyone is enjoying themselves in the Sayian's new home; the kids are dancing, the adults are talking to the Sayians, ect. Meanwhile, Mark, the Eds, & Bardock are talking while sitting around a table.
Eddy: Man, this is a great party.
Mark: Never thought you'd be hanging out with humans, huh Bardock?
Bardock: Yeah, last month all I could think about was how my life was about to end & how I needed to fight Frieza. Now, I'm living on a new world with my wife & my team, new home, & having a party. Heh, funny how things work out.
Mark: Speaking of Frieza, I've been thinking; we know that aliens exist. We know there're some pretty rotten ones out there. So, who's to say that one of them won't turn their sights on Earth? Not to mention all the bad guys that actually live on this planet.
Double D: Where are you going with this?
Mark: We have the power to fight them; the power to save people. We held our own against Frieza, & we're only getting better. Why not be the ones to fight anyone that threatens the world?
Eddy: Mark, are you suggesting what I think you're suggesting?
Mark: Yep! We should be a team & protect the world!
Ed: Really?! Awesome!
Eddy: Yeah, cool! We're gonna be superheroes!
Double D: Well, I don't see why not; we are capable of combat.
Mark: What about you Bardock? Wanna join the team & be a hero.
Bardock: …Why not? I've got nothing better to do. Besides, I've lost one planet; no way I'm going to let another one be destroyed if I can help it.
Mark: Then it's official. (Mark holds out his hand, palm down. The others put their hands on top.) As of this moment, we're a team! I've even come up with a name; what do you guys think of…Team Chronicle?
Eddy: Works for me!
Ed: Yay for Team Chronicle!
Bardock: It's not bad.
Double D: Why the 'Chronicle' part?
Mark: Alright, this is a little cheesy, but I chose that because one day, our names will be chronicled across the universe…I mean, maybe.
Double D: Very well. Team Chronicle it is.
Eddy: Hey, if we're gonna protect the world, we gotta make sure the world knows who we are so we can make it official.
Mark: Good point. Anyone have ideas?
?: Hey guys!
The new team turns to see Johnny & Plank; Johnny has something rolled up under his arm.
Johnny: Plank & I overheard; I want to show you a poster Plank found.
Johnny unrolls the poster to reveal a dragon overlooking a stadium. Text on the poster says: "Want to prove you're the best fighter in the world? Join the first-ever Tenkaichi Budōkai fighting tournament & prove your strength! Tokyo, Japan, 1/15/18."
Double D: A fighting tournament?
Nazz walks over.
Nazz: Oh, I've heard about that! It's supposed to be a big deal.
Mark: Well, winning something like that could be a heck of an introduction.
Bardock: Okay, so we enter, win, & use that to introduce this team to the world?
Eddy: Not to mention we'll probably get a cash prize! Tournaments always have a cash prize!
Double D: According to the date, the tournament starts in two weeks. That should give us plenty of time to train.
Ed: Tournament? Like in action movies! YAY!
Mark: Then it's settled; we're entering the Tenkaichi Budōkai!
