Man. I'm tired. Act Three sure took a lot of time! I'm now starting to debate whether I stick to the plan or should I make this a tad more oiginal. Well reveiw and help me decide! dragonball belongs to Akira Toryama and DBLS belongs to me. And neither are for sale! Take that spammers!
Act Three
"Ms. Briefs, you and your friends are late for class…again !" the disgruntled geology teacher yelled, just as Bulma, Chi-Chi, Krillin, and Goku had been trying to sneak into their desks. They had been at Orange Star High School for over three months and had been late everyday for nearly three months. This was because of the girls having to wait for their new found friends Son Goku and Krillin to wake up for the 45 minute drive to school. With having to stop due to missed breakfasts, taking detours on the forest path they used, or just plain getting stuck in the pre-midmorning traffic jam, the foursome had only barely made it to class on time three times that month. But this Friday, Bulma's car had begged for the much needed gas it required.
"Sorry ma'am!" Chi-Chi said ducking the chalk the teacher had thrown. Goku caught it.
"Here ya go teach" he said handing it back to her. The entire class gasped, all except for one.
"Show off" Yamcha muttered under his breath as Goku walked past. Tien snickered as he attempted to trip Goku.
"Watch your step" he warned mockingly Goku.
"Huh?" Goku said as he accidentally stepped on Tien's foot.
"Get off of me you oaf!" Tien screamed, wincing in pain.
"Hey isn't that what Lunch said when you tried to hug her?" Chi-Chi asked innocently batting her eyelids. The entire class laughed again, except for Yamcha of course.
"Settle down! Settle down!" the teacher yelled. As the class went back to it's original state of quietness the teacher began to explain how they would begin studying gems after the fall break when Bulma raised her hand.
"Yes, Miss Briefs?"
"Ma'am, do you know anything about the legendary Dragonball Gems?"
"I'm sorry, but I don't", the teacher wondered where a teenager would learn of this myth between the top geological professors. Then again she was a Briefs.
"Huh?! Gems! Are we talking semiprecious or-" Yamcha asked with sudden interest.
"Oh stuff it, Yam-face! They're probably the rarest jewels on the planet!"
"Miss Briefs would you like to continue this conversation in detention?" the teacher asked tapping her foot impatiently. She deserved the upcoming two week vacation as much as the students did.
"No ma'am" Bulma said sitting down in disappointment.

"So what was that Dragonball thing you were talking about earlier?"
Krillin asked Bulma as they sat down to lunch in the overly crowded cafeteria.
"Oh well you guys will never believe this, but last summer I was looking around in the storage closet for my other purple diamond earring when-"
"Wait, you have purple diamond earrings?! How rich are you?!" Krillin asked in shock. To have real diamonds was a luxury, but too have purple ones…
"Rich enough! So anyway I'm grabbing around the top shelf when I get this round thing in my hand. At first I thought it was an old golf ball or something, but when I looked at it it was an orange glassy looking ball with two red stars painted on it. Over the summer I came across another one in our summerhouse in Paris. So I did some research and I found out there are seven in all. And that's not even-"
"Fwut?! Devnk hirange galls bwit farse?!" Goku said through a mouth filled with food. Chi-Chi it him in the head knocking him almost completely out of his seat.
"Chew your food before talking." She warned. Goku swallowed.
"S'rry 'bout that. I meant to say those gems or whatever are almost like the ball my grandpa left me, 'cept his has four stars on it." Goku said, recalling the strange item that Grandpa Gohan had told him to always protect.
"Hmmm.. Come to think of it I think my Dad had something like that too! I'm sure I've seen it in the castle somewhere," Chi-Chi said as Goku and Krillin stared in amazement.
'C-castl-le-e?" Krillin stuttered in shock
"Are you the 'Princess Cheech'?" Goku had heard of a warrior-like princess who was possibly the strongest woman in the world. For years he had hoped to meet that girl, little did he know she'd nearly run him over two months prior. Life couldn't get any weirder…. right?
"I'm not sure why people call me that, but yeah that's me 'the strongest girl alive' " she joked, flexing her almost nonexistent muscles.
"Okay, okay your best friends with an heiress and a princess so can we get back to the Dragonballs?" Bulma's impatience was starting to get the better of her.
"Go ahead" they knew how angry Bulma got when she was ignored.
"So like I was saying, that's not even the tip of the iceberg. They say that if you gather all seven your deepest wish will come true."
"Whoa, no kidding" Goku asked almost yelling for the entire cafeteria to hear.
"Don't talk so loud." Chi-Chi hit him once again with even more force.
"Okay, okay! Just stop hitting me so hard. I think you broke one of my ribs." Goku winced, he hadn't been hit that hard in years. Bulma coughed bringing the table's attention back to her.
"Using the latest in Capsule Corp. technology I have made the one of a kind 'Dragonball Radar 500'!"
"What happened to the first 499?" Krillin asked staring wide-eyed.
"They where all to big. The DR 500 can easily fit in the palm of your hand", Bulma had spared no expense ensuring the Dragon Radar was as portable and easy to carry as possible.
"So magic jewels, your heart's desire and whatever. How come you didn't tell us sooner?" Goku asked truly curious.
"Because there never was anytime and I wasn't going to unveil it until it was completed." Bulma said never missing a beat. She had anticipated her friends would have questions such as these and she'd already planned out the answers.
"So what does that have to do with us?" Chi-Chi asked eyeing Bulma suspiciously.
"Anyone up for a little global road trip?"

Yamcha looked at his friend Tien with a smile on his face.
"Hear that man, those losers are gonna lead us straight to our heart's desire."
"You got that right. Just think what we could wish for," Tien said grinning, all they had to do was follow Bulma and her friends until they collected all seven Dragonballs and later force them to hand them over. It was the perfect plan.
"What are two doing?" Tien and Yamcha's thought's were interrupted when an indigo haired maiden appeared behind them.
"Oh hey Lunch! Didn't see you back there!" Tien said nervously. His girlfriend Lunch could be unpredictable at times and this was a result of her dissociative identity disorder. A disease where she gains a second personality. And that second personality was not as friendly as the original.
"Are you going on a trip during the break?" She asked sweetly. She always loved traveling and it was even more enjoyable with Tien.
"Yeah, something like that. Wanna come?" Yamcha was trembling. Last time he had said no to her that bad personality had intervened.
"Why yes I would! Thank you! You guys are so sweet!" Smiling she skipped away happily.
"Dude, your girlfriend is creepy."
"I know"
End of Act Three
Haha! I just love the last two lines! When I thought about how Yamcha and Tien were going after Goku and the rest I thought why not let Lunch join the fun? So now we are extremely far from the original storyline so let's just I just stick to the rough drafts of the stroylines. I Know it's shameful but hey this is pretty good right?
Aiya! Thanks to homework and tests I haven't had a chance to edit or continue the story! But fear not! For with the summer fast aproaching (and the moment my computer gets out of the shop) DBLS will shall return! Hopefully.
