Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z or Dragon Ball GT. Those are owned by Akira Toriyama, Toei Animation and FUNimation. I do own this fan work, however. All characters shown in this story are not owned by the groups listed above.
Okay, just a note before you guys read this: The beginning will seriously be nothing like Dragon Ball GT (even before I changed it) because I did not bother to watch the show that closely. This is just my way of improving it. I've drastically changed the story and retconned the characters a lot. Pan and Bra are 14 and Marron is 15. Goten is also 14 and Trunks is 15. This is so they can be in a similar age group. Eventually when they return their ages will be: Pan, Bra and Goten: 15. Marron and Trunks: 16. The pairings will be TrunksxMarron, GotenxBra. Also, I seriously DO NOT like Uub. Sorry Uub lovers, but I don't know what to do with the guy. He was in three episodes that were kindan rushed in Z, and had no personality development in GT. So for now he's cut out and WILL NOT fuse with Good/Fat Buu.
Oh, and for all the Android 17 fangirls, he'll have a role in this story that isn't just for Super 17. This is NOT a remake of GT. It is just a random fan's wish of what could have been with some of his favorite characters. So don't kill me for this. Also, for those who don't know, 17 and 18's real names are Lapis and Lazuli. Pretty nice, huh? Okay, so guys I've figured out the pairings. These pairings will not take effect immediately but you will see slight changes in their conversations, and the way the characters think of each other. The final pairings will be TrunksxMarron (Because someone had to ship that), GotenxBra and PanxUub. For anyone wondering the randomness of PanxUub, Goku trained Uub and Pan together so they know each other...quite well. On with the story!
"Ooh yes! West Street is mine!", Marron announced.
"Yeah, yeah, we know, you have Capital Avenue as well.", Bra moped.
"And Boulevard.", Pan said.
"And I'm still the richest! Ha!", Marron gloated.
"Oh, quit being so narcissistic!", Bra yelled angrily.
"Yeah, Marron.", Pan said.
"Hey, hey, okay.", Marron accepted. And then muttered "sore losers" under her breath and giggled. The girls continued to play, and Bra sped ahead of Marron in terms of property, but Marron's money just kept rising.
"Aaaaand I wi-", Marron started. She got cut off when the ship started shaking and the whole game board shook around. The girls scrambled to collect the pieces, and then they heard Goten screaming from inside the bathroom, he must've fallen over. Trunks' book dropped, and he rushed to the control center to figure out why the ship was having an earthquake in the freaking middle of space.
"Bra, come with me.", Trunks said. Bra stood up, dropped the pieces of the game into the box and ran to Trunks. When she reached, she tripped and fell over, Trunks caught her. The shaking became more and more violent. They heard a rumbling outside. By the time they got to the control center, they looked out the windows. A hazy sight of two planets on the sides, with a very clouded, smoky sight up ahead. The ship started flying to the nearest gravity automatically. It landed on the tiny little planet. The door opened, but the ship lingered only close to the ship. The planet was so small, it was the length of Trunks' height (meaning he would fit by crouching, but it would be tough for everyone, especially since Goten is a bit taller.). They all ran out into the planet.
"What the heck?! It's the size of a big table.", Bra complained.
"Crouch down or you won't be able to *huff, huff, pant, pant* breath!", Pan breathed heavily as she crouched. Marron, Bra and Trunks promptly followed. Suddenly, the ship's door opened again. Goten wearing only a towel came out. The girls looked and giggled. Goten looked at himself and blushed.
"Hey, Mr. Fanservice!", Bra laughed. Goten tried to reason, but he felt his towel slipping off...and he rushed back inside the ship
The kids, with Goten fully clothed, struggled for air. It was really thin, even by crouching. They had to squeeze together, when Trunks remembered an old device he had that his mom gave him. He pulled out something from his pocket, elbowing Pan several times in the process. He pulled out a watch his mom had, which she took back from Master Roshi after she gave it to him, a long time ago, in exchange for a dragon ball. Bulma was only a teenager at the time and she was travelling with Goku. Oh, how much Bulma laughed at the memories of those times. Trunks put on the watch on his wrist. He shrunk.
"Hey, no fair! I want to become tiny too!", Pan complained. Trunks yelled something but it sounded like a flea screaming. Goten picked him up and Trunks spoke in his ear.
"There are more that Bulma gave to me just in case we needed it. Go in the ship, they're in my suitcase.", Trunks explained to Goten. Goten rushed into the ship, and the girls told him to hurry.
"Don't forget your clothes in there!", Marron yelled, and the girls burst with laughter. Goten ran into the boy's room, and opened Trunk's suitcase and found four watches after fishing around in there. He put one on, and rushed outside. Each girl received one, and they all pressed the button and shrunk. They sat around, wondering how to fix their ship. Suddenly, a group of tiny people about the size of the kids' forearms appeared. One was bigger and older than the rest. They approached our heroes, and the oldest one greeted them.
"I am the elder of our race. Why would you have come here, mighty warriors?", the Elder asked.
"Uh we crashed here.", Marron said awkwardly.
"Yeah, you see, this weird storm thing happened, and our ship, ah, landed here.", Bra said uncertainly.
"Yes. The 'weird storm thing' is the unfortunate result of a massive war between two halves of a torn apart race long forgotten.", the Elder said peacefully.
"Huh?", Goten wondered
"Sit, children. Allow me to explain. *Everyone sits* The two groups feuding over in this section of our northern galaxy are known as the Carbells.
"Why haven't we heard of them?", Pan curiously asks. Everyone murmurs in agreement.
"The Carbells are an isolated, secluded planet and race that refuse to develop technology; only to keep to themselves. Allow me to continue. There are two planets: Planet Zuka and Planet Darn. Zuka has Carbells that are blue. They are peaceful. They love to be silent and secluded. But as with all races, there are faults. These people are selfish, and only care to tend to themselves. Darn has Carbells that are red. Unlike the blue Carbells, they are selfless and love to protect their loved ones. Over time, evolution has taken a fault to lead to a point where these creatures have become barbaric and sadistic. As a result, the two refuse to live together and abhor each other. They once inhabited the planet Zuka. Overpopulation and intolerance led to them separating ten thousand years ago.", the Elder said.
"Why'd they fight again?", Trunks inquired.
"Ten thousand years ago, there was a major war between the two. The blue Carbells won, and so they got to keep the planet while the red Carbells left. Tension does not fade; rather becomes dormant. The red Carbells wanted dominance over the blue ones. They believed they were superior, and their pride was hurt before.", the Elder finished.
"Why didn't they just move before? That would've solved, like, everything...", Bra said.
"The second planet, Darn, was summoned by collecting the Dragon Balls. It was not present before.", the Elder told them. Everyone's eyes opened wide. The Dragon Balls! If they solve the issue here, they could very well receive a Dragon Ball!
Everyone sat down for some rest. Trunks sank deep into his thoughts. The ship is destroyed and we're on an odd planet with nothing familiar. Worst of all, the only way to get out is to solve a war between a feuding race then getting their Dragon Ball. This is not going to be easy. I mean, it's not like mom could have planned for this but we shouldn't have thought it was going to be a cakewalk. We need a plan. Pan...she looks so worried. She's crushed about her grandpa. I guess it's hard to have your grandfather who trained you and cared for you turn into a little kid. Must be difficult for her. Goten, too. His DAD turned into a kid, and the poor guy hardly spent most of his life without Goku. We need a plan... I know we can get some of us to go to the first planet, then the others to the second planet. I'll go with Bra, Goten can head with Pan and Marron. We'll break down their defenses and weaponry. They'll have to surrender to each other and sign a treaty. Then we'll be the ones they thank for calming their race. It's perfect, ha! Everyone stood up. Trunks announced his plan to everyone.
"Cool! Can I go with Goten, though?", Bra asked. What? What, what what? Why did I say that? I guess Goten is kinda cool. Cooler than my brother, anyway. I should have asked if I could go with the girls. What's Trunks gonna think? Oh, if he thinks I'm getting together with Goten, he's gonna have a repeat of the Chad Incident...no, no, nothing like that would ever happen. Trunks is more open minded now. Plus he knows Goten quite well. But there's still a chance to-
"That's fine, Bra. In that case, Marron why don't you come with me?", Trunks asked. Trunks liked to spend time with Marron. She was intelligent and fascinating. He loved to hear her voice when she said anything. He wasn't in love, that's for sure, but he couldn't help but think that something inside him really liked Marron. He loved to get to know her.
"Okay everyone. One by one, we'll become big again and fly to the appropriate planet. I'll start.", Trunks explained. He became big, and flew to Zuka. Marron became big and flew to Zuka. Goten became big and flew to Darn. Bra became big and flew to Darn. Pan became big and flew to Darn. The journey had started. Fortunately, our heroes didn't have to hold their breath long, the tiny planet they were on was equal distance between both the planets. Trunks and Marron started breathing in heavily. Space was airless and COLD! They sat down, heated up and caught their breath. The terrain on Zuka was smooth. The whole planet was a heavy green. They saw large mountain-like structures risen up to the west, and oddly shaped buildings to the north of them. These structures were apparently houses, made from the local gathered material. It looked like it could fall apart any time, as if it was made of mud bricks, similar to the houses of the impoverished in the Middle East of Earth.
"Huh? It's already night! I guess we spent a lot of time on that other planet.", Marron remarked.
"We don't know how long a day is in this world. Could be just a few hours.", Trunks replied.
"Well, I don't know about you, but I'm tired.", Marron said. "Can we rest for a bit?", she suggested.
"Yeah, I guess rest is as necessary as anything.", Trunks said. Trunks pulled out a capsule which popped out a tent, complete with blankets and pillows.
"Don't you have a house in a capsule or something?", Marron wondered.
"Nah, it's not fair to be living in a house for the night if Goten and the others have to rough it. They got a tent capsule too. It's only fair.", Trunks answered.
"Wow, how thoughtful of you.", Marron said, clearly impressed by Trunk's considerate personality. Trunks yawned, and Marron laughed, then yawned herself.
"Haha, I guess it's true what they say about yawns being contagious.", Marron said.
Meanwhile, in planet Darn
Goten, Bra and Pan landed.
"Eww, this is gross!", Pan screeched, landing in a puddle of...unidentifiable fluid.
"What the hell is that?", Bra wondered. The liquid was a large puddle, and Bra and Goten had almost stepped in it. It was brown, but thicker than mud. Pan walked out of it, but the brown liquid stuck to her shoes like dried cement.
"Damn it, Goten, get rid of this crap on my shoe!", Pan exclaimed angrily.
"What am I supposed to do? Bear with it, we'll get a new pair...oh, look a mall!", Goten said happily. He pointed towards a skyscraper that said "Bazaar" on it.
"Oh good, I could get some shopping done.", Bra added. The trio walked into the building, where many stalls were set up, selling many different things. The building itself was old and so was the wood, but it was hidden by how lively the whole place was.
"Welcome, welcome. Are you all vacationers?", a red Carbell asked Goten and the others. Finally, they saw a Carbell. They were thin, with red skin all over. They were red Carbells all around. Their body was scaly, like a dragon. The back of his head stood out, like Appule's. Their movements were fast but not graceful. The Red Carbell guided them through.
"The left wing contains food items - Planet Darn cuisine, I am sure. The right wing contains clothes and other wearable items. Up ahead you will find miscellaneous items and repairing shops. Young lady, what happened to your shoes?", the Carbell asked looking at Pan's shoe.
"Oh, um... you see, I uh...stepped in a puddle of...um...muck.", Pan said nervously. She looked around - Bra was gone!
"Where's Bra? Goten, where's Bra?", Pan asked.
"Oh, she went to go check out the fashions or something. She'll probably come back in a bit.", Goten answered.
Meanwhile at the right wing...
"Ooh, give me that...and that too!", Bra told the Carbell at the stall. She pointed at a silver ring with a lion on it - it described her personality perfectly! Beautiful, but also with the flair of a lion. Ha! Then she pointed at a jewel encrusted shawl - Cute!
"Yes, yes of course, that comes to 200 Yurahn.", the Carbell informed Bra.
"Yurahn? What the heck is a Yurahn?", Bra asked.
"Ah ha ha ha, you kid, I propose?", the Carbell laughed.
"No! Excuse me for a second...", Bra walked away to ask Goten what that was. What was it again? A Yuhrin? What now?
"Hey! Goten, Pan! What's a Yurahn?", Bra asks when she catches up to the pair.
"It's the universal currency! Earth has Zeni, but apparently the rest of the universe uses the Yurahn as a currency, pretty interesting right?", Pan explains holding up a book titled "A Universal Guide to The Beyond".
"You can exchange Zeni and other currencies for Yurahn over there.", Goten pointed to a change machine that looked like an ATM machine.
"Oh boy! I can't wait to get all this stuff!", Bra said. Pan informed her about currency exchanges. 2 Z (Zeni) = 1 YH (Yurahn). Great. Now we only have half the money we thought we had. Doesn't matter much though, we're loaded.
On Planet Zuka
Marron awoke. Calmly and subtly. She thought she was the first to wake up...until she looked to her right and saw Trunks staring right at her. His purple hair was tossed and messed up. It looked cute to Marron.
"Morning.", Trunks said nonchalantly.
"How long has it been?", Marron asked.
"'Bout a hour.", Trunks replied. Marron punched him angrily.
"You pig! You watched me sleep for an hour! Gosh Trunks Brief, I thought you were better than that, you swine! You're like the Master Roshi of our generation you idiotic piece of crap!", Marron yelled.
"Uhh...sorry Marron!", Trunks hurriedly apologized.
"I'm gonna freshen up", Marron told Trunks harshly, and got up to use the other tent, which had a toilet and sink. Ugh, that Trunks! I thought he was decent! Turns out he's just like every other guy I know! A perverted douche! Then again, all he did was watch me...it's not like he touched me or scooted closer. That would have been truly gross. Dang it, now I feel bad for getting so mad at him. I can't believe I called him a pig. That was so mean of me. I should go apologize. And what's to say he wasn't even looking at me? I'M the true swine here. Man, Bulma is a really great inventor. Who else could make a tent like this? Now what to do about Trunks... Marron walked out of the bathroom and started to apologize to Trunks, when Trunks handed Marron something in a wrapper.
"I flew to the nearest store and bought some local chocolate for you to apologize. It's on me, if you're wondering. Sorry for disrespecting you. I should have minded my own business. But in all fairness, I wasn't looking at -", Trunks said. Marron interrupted him.
"It's okay Trunks. This is so sweet of you. I'm sorry, actually. I know you weren't being the perv I thought you were. I'm sorry for calling you a piece of crap and a pig, and a douche.", Marron said.
"Wait, when did you call me a douche?", Trunks asked.
"Um...oops...let's forget about this incident now, okay?", Marron said quickly to cover up.
"Where should we head now? I heard the armory was this way, you wanna head there?", Trunks asked Marron. Marron looked up, her mouth stuffed him chocolate. Trunks couldn't help it, he fell on the floor laughing. He had no idea Marron was stuffing herself with chocolate! Marron swallowed.
"What's so fun...oh. Ha, ha! Look, we can head that...stop laughing! It's good chocolate!", Marron replied defensively.
"Okay...HAHAHA...let's...haha...go, I guess!", Trunks said. He started to fly.
"Wait, can we walk?", Marron asked.
"Why?", Trunks asked. Marron mumbled something under her breath.
"What?", Trunks asked. Marron talked a bit louder.
"Marron, I seriously can't hear you.", Trunks told her.
"I'm afraid of flying, okay?", Marron told Trunks.
"Oh, is that it? Oh good, I thought you were feeling queasy from the chocolate. If that's the case, we can walk.", Trunks said. He landed and walked to the armory with Marron. Weapons were laid out everywhere - catapults and cannons and other destructive things like time bombs and grenades. They saw a blue Carbell, which looked like a blue carbon copy of the red kind, put a grenade onto a catapult. He launched it to the next planet, and it collided with a cannonball, and exploded on contact. The pair saw the debris - that was the space storm. These types of disruptions were not meant for being in space. Such power messed with the fabric of space itself causing chaos around it. Marron and Trunks immediately, being the smart, sharp kids they were, understood this when the general of the army told them.
"Ready Marron?", Trunks asked.
"I'm so ready.", Marron told Trunks.
"Fire!", Trunks yelled. They fired consecutive ki blasts at all the weaponry, which crumbled and destroyed, burned, whatever you can think of.
"Not so fast! You stop here!", a Carbell yelled. He shot a cannon at a building, which tumbled down and fell right on Marron. Only her head was sticking out. The Carbell placed a time bomb that stuck to the building.
"You touch that bomb...and boom...you're dead.", the Carbell menacingly said. Trunks shot a long beam at him, which made the Carbell fly away.
"Marron!", Trunks screamed.
"Trunks! Help!", Marron screamed. The time bomb read "5:00" then "4:59".
"It's gonna go in five minutes...", Trunks muttered. He tried to figure out the over-complicated wiring that was simply meant to confuse him. A memory of Bulma surfaced in his head. He remembered what she said: "Relax Trunks. Stress and increasing pressure is never the answer. Calm down and observe your work...carefully."
"I got it! I just need to calm down!", Trunks said. Well, easier said than done. With all this noise from the war and Marron screaming, how does a guy concentrate? Trunks closely looked at the wires and saw where each one went. He had to cut them in the right order, or boom. There were one of each: blue, red, green, black and yellow. Which one to cut first?
"Trunks, this is no time for admiring the handiwork...hurry up, I'm at the risk of death here!", Marron reminded. Trunks figured out that the second one has to be the blue one, then yellow and green, then red. But which is first? One will make it explode, and one will make it deactivate. Trunks decided to take a chance and cut the yellow wire. The bomb clock read "0:00". Trunks only had time to duck, grab Marron, and brace himself before the building exploded, and the blast engulfed everything in a six foot radius.
On Planet Darn
"Can we PLEASE start the mission now?", Pan suggested. She was frustrated because Goten kept staring at every stall, and Bra wanted to try out all the clothes.
"Fine, fine, let's go. I only care about the ring anyway.", Bra admitted. She placed the lion ring on her ring finger, and she and Goten started walking behind Pan, who was frustrated because she knew Trunks and Marron were already making progress - she could feel it. They started shooting blasts at the weaponry, which was much bigger (but thankfully less complex) than that of the blue Carbells. At first Bra was having trouble. She wasn't used to doing this. Though Pan helped her, and she got the hang of it.
"Try concentrating your blasts more. Bigger and more concentrated with ki. That makes for more destruction.", Pan explained. Bra did as told and while she took longer than Goten and Pan to form a blast, they were no less better in quality. Soon, the Carbells had realized that they were no match for these warriors. They had soon destroyed all the weapons.
"Now how to we tell Trunks and Marron that we're done? We don't know the next phase of the plan.", Goten said.
On Planet Zuka
Trunks held on tight to Marron, and the smoke faded away. Marron opened her eyes and saw Trunks, bleeding and unconscious, holding her. Marron looked at herself. Trunks had taken the entire blast for her. She wasn't hurt at all. She looked at her arms. Clear, save for a few cuts. She stood up, and picked up Trunks. She took him back to the tent. Wow. He took the blast for me. I don't know what to say. He saved my life. And the last thing I said to him was...stop fooling around. How heartless of me. And now he's... Marron took Trunks to the sink, and washed him with his clothes on and dried him off. She laid him to rest in the tent on his bed. She felt his slight breath.
"Trunks...", Marron said, before she broke into a flood of tears. How could she have let this happen?! Why, why couldn't he just be selfish?! It wasn't fair! She worried for Trunks. Until after a minute she found out he wasn't unconscious, but he had started sleeping. Marron sweatdropped.
"Ugh. He's fine, he's used to this stuff.", Marron said. After thirty minutes, Trunks awoke. Marron looked at him as his vision came into focus.
"How long was I out?", Trunks asked
"About forty-five minutes", Marron replied.
"Not staring at me for all this time, were you?", Trunks said cheekily. Marron slapped him right across his face in anger.
"WHAT?! That's not funny!", Marron said, as she saw Trunks laughing after she slapped him.
"Are...are you hurt?", Trunks asked.
"I'm fine. It's you I'm worried about.", Marron told him. Wow. He's bleeding and has all these injuries...yet he asked about me. I know one thing, these two boys are not pervs like some others I know about. Trunks is really caring.
"Hey, I think there are some Senzu beans back at the ship. Could you get one for me?", Trunks asked Marron. Marron said yes, and she flew, only because she had to, the short distance between Zuka and that tiny planet. Before landing, she turned tiny with the shrinking watch. The tiny creatures who lived there welcomed her again.
"How's the work on the ship coming along?", Marron asked as she strolled into the ship.
"Slow. It's a very big ship, we are having trouble fixing it.", the Elder said. He promptly apologized.
"I could say the same about the war. Can I go in?", Marron said.
"By all means, yes.", the Elder replied. Marron ran in. The interior of the ship was surprisingly undamaged. She wondered where the Senzu beans could be. She found them in the kitchen. She moved them into the boy's bedroom. Someone could mistake the beans for food and eat them all, for all she knew. She took one and sped back to Trunks.
"Thanks.", Trunks said as he gratefully held the Senzu bean. The magical bean healed his cuts and made those ugly burn marks fade away, as if they never existed.
"Hey, no scars!", Marron said happily. They both stifled a few real laughs, despite being so tired. Trunks was soon refreshed. They went out, very wary of bombs and dangerous Carbells. Soon all the weapons were destroyed, save for the cannons. The second part of Trunks' plan was about to be activated.
"Assuming all the weapons of Darn have been destroyed, we can launch these cannonballs towards Darn and spell out a message for the others.", Trunks said.
"Their energy signal is coming from there.", Marron said. Trunks pulled back a catapult, and fired the cannonball.
Planet Darn
"Aaah!", Bra screamed as she just dodged a cannonball. Many more started being launched towards them, and then they found out they were fireballs. They burned the ground, and after a while they stopped appearing. Bra angrily kicked all the cannonballs away. Goten observed the burns.
"I think it's a pattern.", Goten observed.
"Could be. Let's get a bird's eye view.", Pan said as she flew up. Bra and Goten followed suit. Then they saw it: "MEET AT TINY PLA", completely spelled out in burns.
"Wow, that's totally the work of Trunks.", Bra said. They all listened, assuming "pla" meant "planet". They all saw each other at the tiny planet. They shrunk.
"Did you guys destroy everything?", Trunks asked.
"Yep! What about you guys?", Pan asked.
"Everything gone.", Marron confirmed.
"Great! We can move on to Stage 2 of the plan. Now that they can't indirectly kill each other, they have to fight head on.", Trunks explained. Bra punched his arm.
"What was that for, Bra?!", Trunks asked, annoyed.
"For almost killing me", Bra said.
"One of the the cannonballs almost hit her.", Goten said.
"Oh...well, sorry...", Trunks apologized.
"What a lame apology.", Bra complained.
"Hey, Trunks, wouldn't it be better if we tried to convince them not to fight?", Pan asked.
"Yeah, that's a pretty good idea!", Goten agreed.
"Okay. But I'm not good with words. You do it, Goten.", Trunks said.
"M-me?", Goten looked pale.
"You can do it, Goten. I know you can.", Pan encouraged.
"Yeah, Goten can totally do it.", Marron agreed.
"Okay, I'll do it!", Goten said. Everyone cheered.
Planet Zuka
"Citizens of Planet Zuka! Blue Carbells everywhere! May I have your attention?", Trunks announced loudly. Many Carbells recognized Trunks, and soon millions of Carbells started to gather. Trunks directed everyone to Goten.
"Attention, people of Planet Zuka! I am fully aware of the wrongs Planet Darn has done to you. I offer my condolences for your losses. But that which has been done cannot be undone. You must move on to the future of your planet. Your weapons are destroyed and there is no point in continuing to fight. You must live in harmony. You all share the same genetics. The Kai has meant for all of you to live together in peace and brotherhood. You cannot betray the beliefs you shared until the point you all split. After all, while they have wronged you, you fought back. Two wrongs do not make a right. The mindset of "an eye for an eye" is not applicable in this situation. You must all understand. After all, what happens if a red Carbell is born here, and a blue one there?", Goten started. Bra, Marron, Trunks and Pan repeated the words to the Carbells in the back. Somebody tossed Goten a microphone. Goten waited for anyone to reply.
"We send the red baby Carbells to Planet Darn, of course! They are not allowed to live in our land!", a Carbell yelled.
"Tearing a child from their birthplace? Do you see what this does? How many of you are from Darn originally?", Goten asked. Several Carbells raised their hands.
"Now do you see? The connection you have with the other half of your race is undeniable. Such a strong connection calls for living together.", Goten said. He stopped when he saw the large crowd parting halfway. A female blue Carbell, donned in a long white gown approached them. Everyone bowed, and that's when our heroes understood that this was the leader of the Carbells. Behind her, a large, bulky male red Carbell followed. The leader of Darn, probably.
"Now do you all see the importance of being together? Now tell me...would you all live together in harmony, or fight to the death?", Goten questioned them. They all exchanged looks, and almost all of them yelled: "FIGHT TO THE DEATH!". Everyone anime-fell. Trunks told something to Pan and Bra. The two nodded and flew off into space. They grabbed an asteroid and hurdled it towards Zuka. They caught it at the last minute.
"There's your battlefield.", Pan said.
"I shall tell my army that war has come upon us.", the leader of Darn said. Afterwards, he departed and they heard a very loud battle cry from Darn. All the soldiers of both sides gathered to brawl it out, without any weapons. As they fought, unknown to the Carbells, the heroes were going to smash the two planets together, to force the races to be together.
"KA..MEEEE...HAAA...MEEE...HAAAA!", Goten, Pan and Marron shouted as they shot Darn toward Zuka. The two planets combined, with a lot of rocks flying everywhere. The two planets can combined to form the massive planet. The birth of Planet Zukadarn had taken place.
The next morning, the yelling and shouting was present, but less. The heroes awoke from their restless sleep to find that the battle was over, and both sides had realized the war was not worth it. They arrived on the battlefield, and the two leaders imprisoned the heroes for causing the death of so many Carbells.
"Execution's in three hours...", a prison guard told them and he walked away. They were locked in a prison cell.
"If we break out, then they won't give us the Dragon Ball.", Trunks said.
"If we take it forcefully then we'll have to hurt so many Carbells.", Bra argued.
"...and if we do nothing, then we're dead.", Goten said. Marron sat on the side, quiet.
"What's with you, Mar?", Bra asked.
"I just wanted to show you guys this.", Marron said. She pulled out a cell phone, except with more buttons. It was also bigger.
"Bulma gave it to me so I can contact mom and dad whenever. I can also contact her with it.", Marron explained.
"Hey! Quiet down, over there!", another prison guard yelled.
"Hey, dude, what if we told you we could bring back all your people?", Pan asked.
"Seriously, we can do that!", Trunks said. The prison guards ran and got the leaders.
"This ain't gonna be no good.", the red leader said.
"What do you require, fiends?", the blue leader said.
"We know how to bring back your fallen people!", Bra said.
"Do it, and we set you free and give you this.", the blue leader said. Then she did the unexpected: She pulled out the One-Star Black Star Ball! Marron hurriedly called Bulma, and Bulma answered.
"Hello? Marron? Are you there?", Bulma asked.
"Yes Bulma, I'm there! Listen, we need you to use the dragon balls to wish back the fallen Carbells!", Marron told her.
"Fallen..Car..what?", Bulma wondered. The girls rapidly explained the whole story to her, about the tiny planet, the Carbells, and the storm.
"That's quite a tale. Well, the balls are at Kame House, I could do it right now.", Bulma told them. Everyone looked relieved.
Back on Earth
"Vegeta, I'm going to Kame House!", Bulma told Vegeta from downstairs.
"Bye!", Vegeta said. Bulma opened a capsule car and climbed into it, and drove to Kame House. Oolong opened the door.
"Hey Bulma. What brings you here?", Oolong asked.
"Hi Oolong. I need to make a wish on the Dragon Balls.", Bulma told him.
"Sure, the Dragon Balls are in the living room. Kuririn knew you'd need them eventually. Those silly kids have probably already got into some trouble, huh?", Oolong asked.
"Yeah. It's a long story. The wish won't make much sense either. I'll tell you about it later.", Bulma said. Oolong shape-shifted his hands to be bigger so he could carry all the balls. They laid them outside.
"Arise, Shenron!", Bulma chanted. The sky became dark, as if a storm was coming. The great dragon rose up, and looked at Bulma.
"You have summoned me with the Dragon Balls. Speak your wish, and I shall grant it.", Shenron roared.
"Shenron, bring back to life every fallen Carbell!", Bulma shouted.
"What the hell is a Carbell...", Oolong wondered.
"It shall be done.", Shenron said. He started glowing. Then, he disappeared.
Back at Zukadarn
"I-I'm alive!", a Carbell said.
"Oh, Gerald, you're alive!", a female Carbell said to her now revived husband. The two leaders returned to the heroes.
"You have done it, mysterious warriors!", the blue leader said.
"You may go. And take this treasure with you.", the red leader said, giving them the dragon ball. And with that, they went back into their repaired ship and flew away, holding the one-star Black Star Ball.
Well. I really developed the bond with Trunks and Marron in this chapter. Aren't they so cute? I loved writing this chapter, it was a joy. I got to experiment with some writing tools I haven't previously used. This is what the rest of the Black Star Balls Saga will be like, as well. They will explore new and exciting planets, looking for the balls. All the planets will be my own creation and they probably won't encounter Giru because I'm not using Imecka or any of those other planets in this story. By the way, sorry if this chapter seemed rushed. I was getting tired of writing it and wanted to get on with it.
Also, note to the TrunksxPan supporters: Your opinion of how "suckish" TrunksxMarron is not appreciated here. Quit acting like little kids and just enjoy the story, please. Anyway, with that out of the way, the next chapter is under work and will be released ASAP!
