Dragon Ball Academy #2 "The Academy"
"This place is massive!" Hannah shouts excited jumping into the air to see over the heads on the other students.
"There's so many people here. It's really crowded." Britt complains as she's lightly pushed by one of the other students trying to get passed her.
"I wonder if what Trunks said is true. That we can all make it into the school together." Jayce retorts not fully believing that, so many students could be trained to fight and taught in basic Highschool knowledge.
"I wish I could fly like the teachers." I remark watching as a man in an orange Gi flies over us with a massive smile on his face.
"Let's get out of the crowd guys." Hannah offers as we all nod following her as she flies us away from the rest of the crowd.
"Alright, I can finally breathe." Britt retorts happy to be out of the crowd.
"Caleb, I want to talk to you about your power level. What happened when we died? You seem to be a little stronger than us now when before you were the weakest." Jayce asks me as I shrug not knowing why I feel more powerful.
"I went into this berserker state and started beating up that Cell guy. Afterwards I was worn out and tired. When we got here a talking cat came up and gave me a bean telling me that it would make me feel better." I explain to them remembering the horrible taste of the bean. "Ever since then I've felt a little stronger."
"What you experienced is called a Zenkai Boost." Trunks explains flying down from the sky and landing next to us. "Basically, when a Saiyan gets hurt and recovers they get a small boost in power."
"Huh, interesting." Jayce remarks going deep in thought about the possibility of purposefully harming yourself to get stronger.
"Anyways, I'm glad you could all make it! The teachers have some stuff they have to do before we can begin, but it won't be too long before we can get started." Trunks tells us before flying off back into one of the buildings where all the teachers had been flying to.
"I guess it wouldn't hurt to maybe talk to some of our future classmates." Hannah states eyeing a weird looking alien with two spikes coming out of his head and a long tail. "Like him."
"Yeah, I think I'll pass on that." Britt remarks a little shyly as I nod in agreement standing still.
"Alright, well have fun doing nothing then." Hannah says before running back towards the crowd with Jayce walking towards it as well.
Aaron's Point of View
"This is so exciting!" Terra shouts at me happily as we both struggle to make our way out of the crowd.
"Let's just hope Geki will stay out of trouble long enough to get into the school." I remark jokingly as I suddenly hear a lot of shouting and cheering. "I may have spoken too soon."
We both run over to the fight and see Geki fighting against a blonde girl about our age.
"Apologize!" The girl shouts at Geki who just smirks.
"I'm two times stronger than you after my Zenkai Boost, do you really want to fight me?" Geki asks her as she gets into a fighting stance.
"You punched my friend for no reason!" The girl exclaims defending her actions when suddenly Geki charges forward with a powerful punch that the girl just barely blocks.
"Geki stop!" Terra suddenly shouts pushing Geki away from the girl and the boy that he had punched.
"Hmph, I have a feeling we'll be fighting again." Geki tells the girl before walking off with his hands now in his pockets.
"Thanks for the help. My name's Hannah, glad to meet you." Hannah remarks shaking Terra's hand as the boy starts getting up.
"I'm Terra! Aaron and I were just saying how bad it would be if that lump of pride got into a fight." Terra jokes making Hannah chuckle as I come over to join in the conversation helping the boy up.
"Who was that guy anyways?" The boy asks curiously wiping off his pants with dirt flying off them.
"A full blooded Saiyan named Geki." I explain to him.
"Full blooded? Now that's interesting. My name's Jayce by the way." Jayce tells me suddenly getting lost in thought at the possibility of more full-blooded Saiyans.
"So, where are you guys from?" Hannah asks us curiously pretty much guessing that everyone here isn't from the same time or place.
"We're not really sure. We woke up in a completely different time period in what felt like a warzone." I explain to her remembering how terrified I was when the Androids realized we were there. "How about you guys?"
"Us? We were dead." Hannah retorts chuckling a bit. "Trunks brought us back with the Dragon Balls though."
"The Dragon Balls?" Terra asks curiously not knowing what they are.
"Mystical orbs created by Kami that can grant any wish." Hannah explains to both of us.
"I'll pretend to know what you mean." I joke as we all suddenly hear the crowd go silent. We run over to see Trunks and the teachers on stage along with the Principal who's a blue, chubby and small.
"Hello one and all. I am very happy to welcome you all into Dragon Ball Academy. Here you will learn how to become Time Patrollers and become much stronger in all aspects of your life. My name is King Kai and I will be your principal for the next 4 years." King Kai explains to all of us when suddenly two brown haired kids inch by quietly running up next to Jayce and Hannah. "However, not everyone will be accepted into the school due to how many there are."
"Huh?" The whole school unanimously shouts before an outrage of anger begins filling the courtyard.
"We will be holding a tournament here at the school to see which of you is strongest. The ten of you that make it to the finals will be allowed to stay and the rest of you will go back to your time." King Kai explains with everyone getting silent as they all look at each other determining who's strongest.
"Heh, you nobodies don't stand a chance!" Geki shouts excited that he'll get to fight the rest of us.
"I suggest you stay silent unless you want have your power tested." An alien states threateningly with Geki about to jump into a fight against him. Just as the two are about to fight one of the teachers intervene picking the up by their heads.
"How about you two sit down before a real Saiyan elite puts you in your place." The teacher threatens dropping the two kids onto the ground and suddenly appearing back again in his seat.
"Yes, as I was saying we will be having a tournament. We will be enforcing regular tournament rules in that no items will be allowed nor will flying. Killing is obviously not allowed either. We will have preliminary matches determined by a random draw. After that you will continue moving up until the semi-finals and then the finals." Principal King Kai explains to all of us as we all begin to get a little worried about being matched up against someone we can't handle. "The tournament begins in 1 hour."
"1 hour!?" Hannah shouts as the entire student body erupts again.
"Guess we better get ready." Terra retorts pounding her fists together.
"Caleb, Britt, come with me guys." Jayce tells the two brown haired kids as he grabs them both by the back of their shirt and flies off.
"Where are they going?" I ask Hannah curiously as I'm mainly just trying to stall my nerves of possibly fighting Geki.
"Jayce is probably going to teach them how to use their Ki like him and I do." Hannah explains to me as she suddenly has a powerful aura burst out around her. "Like this."
"Wow, it's like what that guy, Yamcha, did! Can you teach me and Aaron too?" Terra asks kindly as she gawks at Hannah's aura which continues to radiate.
"I guess so. Follow me." Hannah states running off with Terra and I following closely behind.
Caleb's Point of View
"Alright, so channeling our Ki. How do we do it?" I ask Jayce curiously who looks at Britt and I.
"First get into a stance you feel comfortable with." Jayce tells us which we both do. I get in a more basic stance with my knees lining up with my shoulders, but Britt goes at it a little differently and continue to just stand there. "Alright then. Now start screaming while trying to push everything from your stomach into the rest of your body."
"Wait, what?" Britt retorts suddenly.
"Just do it. You'll understand one you do it." Jayce comments impatiently.
"Here goes nothing." I remark as I start letting out a scream and proceed do as Jayce told us to by pushing everything out into my body. I can then feel a light flicker of my aura before I fall down completely exhausted. I look over at Britt who seems to have gotten the gist of it and begins to develop her aura.
"You're doing it! C'mon keep it up!" Jayce exclaims excitedly at Britt who continues to push through the pain of activating her Ki.
"I-I can't go anymore." Britt states powering down and falling to the ground more exhausted than me.
"Both of you probably need to get there before we start our first matches." Jayce remarks a little concerned we may not be able to keep it up with the other fighters.
I get up brushing off my pants and getting back into my stance. "Let me try again!"
The Tournament begins next time on Dragon Ball Academy! (It'll also be out on Christmas, so yay?)
