Dragon Ball NA
The Resurrection Saga
Episode 8:
Impossibilities; "It Works Again!!"
Six golden streaks shot across the light blue, cloudless sky, all pointed towards Kami's Lookout. Of course, these days, Dende has taken guardianship over Earth, so it rightfully belongs to him. But it'll always be Kami's Lookout. As the six Z-Warriors approached, one sped up, and landed early. His leather jacket slowed him down slightly as he ran past the small Dende, who looked confused. He ran past two other people, one of them green, who seemed to not be paying attention, either. Then, he approached the main part of the Lookout. Inside the building, there was a doorway. There was a crack from the top-left corner, to the bottom-right.
Tii kneeled down in front of the building, down on one knee. He was whispering something, seemingly, but it wasn't loud enough for anyone to hear. As the other five Z-Warriors approached, Dende, and the other two characters did as well. One of them, Goku's son, Gohan, and the other was another Namekian, guardian of the planet Namek, Piccolo. They all stood around Tii, and waited to see what happened next.
"So," Goku spoke up, "what is this 'tool' that you were talking about?" Tii chuckled, and stood up. He removed his sheath and blade, and set it on the ground. He then took off his leather jacket, and threw it aside, landing on the ground with a heavy thud. He then untied his belt, and his tail unraveled itself, tossing aside the round weights attached around it. He turned away from the group, and removed his black shirt and his green shirt, and then stopped, topless.
"This is the answer to everything," He said, and he turned around. Everyone gasped, except Goku, who merely looked amazed. Upon his chest was what appeared to be a strange tattoo. Six white dragonballs with black stars were in a circle, with the one dragonball in the middle. In between the outer circle, and the one-star dragonball, there were two small dragons, each one's mouth open when it reached the previous one's tail.
"What is THAT?!" Goku screamed, reaching forward to touch it. But immediately as he stepped forward, Tii turned around. Tii smiled suspiciously.
"It's another long story," He said. "Are you ready?" Not waiting for an answer, he continued. "It takes a long, tedious ritual that must be performed exactly as it was done the first time, in order to retrieve the chaos dragonballs. We retrieved the one-star dragonball from each of the five planets that hold dragonballs: Earth, Namek, Konnatsuu, Imegga, and Arumua. Five different colors of the spectrum: Earth has orange, Namek has red, Konnatsuu has dark blue, Imegga has light purple, and Arumua has yellow.
"We put one at each of the corners of a standard pentagram, and Tapion stood in the middle. Exactly four feet in front of Tapion, were seven identically-shaped and -sized stones, set in the traditional dragonball pattern. Tapion played his ocarina again, and slowly, the pentagram began forming. When it was complete, it shone around him, and he continued the melody. Then, the dragonballs started glowing, and that's when Pikkon and I stood on either side of him, and started charging our power into the five dragonballs. They started to glow brighter and brighter, when suddenly, five beams, each a different color, shot toward the center, and engulfed Tapion in a pillar of white light. Still, he continued with his song.
"While Pikkon and I continued charging our energy as high as it would go, Tapion began to completely end his song. The white tower shot into a cloud in the sky, and suddenly, another identical beam shone down on the seven identical stones. Tapion ended the melody with a time-stopping note, and suddenly, everything was still. A blinding explosion of light filled the area, and we could not see. Then, when the light was gone, we noticed that the five different dragonballs were gone, presumably back to their original planets. And now, seven white dragonballs were circling Tapion. They looked like planets, orbiting around him as their sun.
"Then, Tapion began to play another melodious tune on his ocarina. The rotating dragonballs then stopped moving, and Pikkon stepped forward."
"I called out to the skies," Pikkon broke in. "I screamed, 'Ryukijin! Come forth!' And the dragonballs shot into the sky, and circled around as a bunch of storm clouds gathered. Then, the dragonballs were filled with a whiff of smoke. And it lowered down in front of Tapion, and the smoke slowly started to transform into a dragon-like man. It was unlike anything we'd ever seen."
"He was a two-legged dragon," Tapion said. "He had horns all over his body, and he was all white, except the horns, which were black. The dragonballs were still spinning around him, and his booming voice seemed to resonate through the clouds."
"Usually, a person is given four wishes with the chaos dragonballs," Tii said. "Three for himself, and the fourth is to wish the chaos dragonballs to be destroyed until the ritual is done again. Otherwise, they spread across the universe, and are a free-for-all. But they are so powerful that if they are used on a common basis, like the regular dragonballs, they could possibly destroy all existence, ending everything. The negative energy gathered from using them in one sitting is more than all the other five sets of dragonballs put together. Hence the reason they are rarely used.
"So, our first wish was this: for the three of us, and anyone else we ever met, or wished upon them, to have unlimited potential, forever. Wishing for immortality or unending strength is overrated and selfish. But being able to continue training, working harder, to get stronger is much more worthwhile. Plus, this made it so that we would still be somewhat equal, and fair whenever we met up with any comrades.
"The second wish was an easy one. You see, a few months before we actually found the dragonballs, my tail was cut off when I was attacked by a beam attack. I had managed to escape, but my tail was destroyed. So, since that limited my power at the time, I wished for my tail to return, and for my original abilities to be where they were supposed to be. He merely waved his hand, and it grew back quickly, as if it had never been gone.
"The third wish was probably the most difficult. We had run out of things to wish for, believe it or not. So, we asked Ryukijin to instill upon us every technique and ability that is used for fusion. Unfortunately, we didn't know there were very few. But nonetheless, we accepted.
"Now, Ryukijin is a strong, but fierce dragon. But nonetheless, you expect him to follow the rules occasionally. So, he assumed we were going to use the final wish to destroy the dragonballs, and that whole nine yards. But we had a different plan. I told Ryukijin that I wanted to receive all responsibility for the chaos dragonballs, and that I wanted them placed into my body, so that I may use their power whenever I needed. Even one of these dragonball holds the power to do miraculous things. Ryukijin was shocked, and surprised, but had to follow the rules of the wisher.
"So, he raised his hands into the sky, and suddenly, the dragonballs changed location. They moved directly in front of me, circling in front of my chest. Ryukijin told me not to move, so I obeyed. Suddenly, he split in half, and took the shape of two white dragons, similar to Shenron. The two dragons then flew at me, right through the circle of dragonballs, and when he did, they followed him, and they hit me in the chest. I was knocked back, and there was a small bit of smoke, but I ignored it. When I stood up, I felt something moving on my chest. I removed my outfit, and noticed that the two dragons you see here, were moving around the one-star dragonball. Finally, they got into the position they are now, and stopped.
"Ever since then, I've possessed the power of the 'balls. It's quite astonishing. With the power of these dragonballs, I have overcome several obstacles because of them. And now, I'm going to utilize the power of the chaos dragonballs to bring the Room of Spirit and Time back to life."
Everyone continued to stare at Tii's chest, but finally, he moved, and their attention was back on him. He stepped over to the cracked door of the Room of Spirit and Time, and put his hands forward, palms out, fingers spread. He closed his eyes and started focusing. The dragonballs embedded in his chest started to glow, and the dragons began moving in a circle. The dragonballs got brighter as the dragons moved faster. Suddenly, a beam of light released from the one-star dragonball from the middle of his chest, and hit the middle of the door. A white veil grew over the door, and it began to fix itself.
"It's repaired!" Bardock said in astonishment. When the light disappeared, the door was completely crack-less, and slightly glowing. Then, without waiting, another beam shot from Tii's chest and hit the door. But instead of spreading along the door, it flew through it, not damaging it at all, but entering the concepts.
"Yes, it is," Tii said, dropping his hands and opening his eyes. "And there are some new rules. Up to four people may enter at a time. As it was before, one day in real time equals a year in the Room. If the Room is at the four-person maximum, and one of them is a two-man fusion-dance fusion, then they will remain fused until the year is up. Otherwise, if there are three or less people, they will be able to be together as long as they want. Also, as for how many times you can enter, starting now, every person has a total of seventy-two hours in the Room, equivalent to four days. You can only do one day, twenty-four hours, at a time."
"Well," Bardock said, "Who should go first?" Tii began reapplying his clothing, as he spoke.
"Goku has to go first," He said. "You have to train your Super Saiya-jin 3 abilities. Ryukijin said that it was necessary." Goku was shocked.
"But, Super Saiya-jin 3 takes up SO much power!" Goku exclaimed.
"You can do it, Goku!" Tii said, putting on his shirts. "Remember how hard it was to go Super Saiya-jin back in the day? But you went into the Room of Spirit and Time, and now look at you. You could transform into Super Saiya-jin 1 on the brink of death. Then, Super Saiya-jin 2 came along, but you trained, and now, you've practically invented a new transformation. All you have to do is train for a year in Super Saiya-jin 3, and you should get it! And now that you have your tail back, you should be able to equal out your power a bit more. Plus, Ryukijin said it was to happen, so it must." Goku thought for a moment, but then shrugged his shoulders and accepted.
"I must go with him," Vegeta piped up out of nowhere. A shade of controversy fell over the crowd, but Gohan entered the conversation.
"The two strongest warriors in the universe," he said, "should train together to get even stronger. I've become strong enough, I can guard the planet for one whole day. And if I need help, I have Tii, Tapion, Pikkon, Bardock, Goten, and Trunks. We'll be fine." Gohan nodded, as did Goku. Then, Tii stepped forward.
"I have some presents for you," Tii said. He pulled a capsule from his pocket, pressed the button, and threw it onto the ground. Suddenly, a puff of smoke appeared, and cleared quickly. On the ground, there were now outfits that exactly resembled Bulma's model of the Saiyan battle armor. "They are the same style, except for the fact that they are now weighted and are eighty-three-percent more durable. Wear them in the Room. Trust me, you'll want to." So, the two warriors switched outfits, and then stepped in front of the door.
"Well, here we go," Goku said. "Hopefully, in twenty-four hours, two stronger warriors will be exiting this room." Everyone exchanged good-byes, then the door opened slowly. Vegeta and Goku immediately entered, and the door closed faster this time. After the door closed, the timer began.
Goku stepped into the living quarters of the house in the Room of Spirit and Time. He quickly walked outside, and faced away from the building. As Vegeta walked out, he saw Goku begin charging.
"What are you doing?" Vegeta asked.
"I'm getting ready to transform into Super Saiya-jin level 3," he said, pausing his charge. "Now, if you want to try doing so, you might want to start focusing, and following along."
... Meanwhile ...
Tii gathered Vegeta's and Goku's regular clothing, and set them beside the door. Piccolo was now walking around, and feeling much better. Gohan was stretching out, and examining his newly-grown tail. Tapion sat alone, on a picnic table, several feet away, while Pikkon looked over the edge of the Lookout, examining Planet Earth. Suddenly, his eyes stopped on one thing.
"Are you guys possibly friends with any unbelievably-skinny, dark-skinned people?" Pikkon asked. Gohan, confused, walked over to him. Exactly as described, a thin, dark beast was approaching the Lookout, with an expression of arrogant hatred on his face. On his arm was one of the infamous Majin bands.
"No!" Gohan screamed. "Dad left too soon. It's Evil Buu!" Everyone jumped up and approached the edge. Tii and Tapion had their swords drawn, Piccolo and Pikkon were removing their weighted armors, and Bardock was charging a faux moon in his palm, behind him. Evil Buu reached the Lookout, and landed on the edge.
"Where is Goku?!" He screamed, looking around. He spotted Bardock, and charged at him. "GOKU!" In an shocked attempt to send him away, Bardock threw the faux moon forward, which hit him right in the stomach. Simply a ball of light, it managed to distract him for a split second, but then, Evil Buu transformed into a rubbery substance, and formed himself around Bardock's struggling body.
Within seconds, the shaking blob was gone, and Evil Buu had now reappeared. Except, he now had multiple dark "tails" extending from his head, and wore a green-and-black Saiyan armor.
"My name is now Evil Buudock," He cackled. "Who wants to PLAY?!"
