Back for another chapter. I know I've said this before, but I'm thankful for all the support you guys have given me. I'm happy to see people enjoy my stories. I hope I continue to impress. Anywho, let's get on with the story. I don't own Dragon Ball.
Age 750, May 8th, Great Mole Mountain
In a nearby town, a group of friends were getting ready to check out Great Mole Mountain. They decided to be some of the first to climb the mountain on foot, and even brought a camera to commemorate the occasion. They were about to get in their vehicle, when the ground started to shake. Multiple citizens began to run to Great Mole Shelters. They soon found themselves surrounded by soldiers and tanks.
The town began to panic as the soldiers began to restrain the citizens. Over by the mountain, more soldiers were cutting down trees as they secured the mountain. A few harnessed the great moles and put them to work digging through the mountain. The ones that were too young to work, were scurried into separate cages. One of the men ran over to a tent.
"Colonel Silver!" shouted the soldier. "We think we're nearing the dragon ball, but the supports are starting to break the further we dig. It's estimated that if we dig any further, the mountain will come down on top of us, and crush all beneath it. That includes the dragon ball. What are your orders?"
The man the soldier was referring to arose from his chair. He sported red, flaming hair and onyx eyes. He wore a blue trench coat, a red ascot, a black belt, a buckle that had an eagle engraved in it, blue jeans, and brown boots. He turned away from the soldier and pondered his words. He turned back to the soldier as he came up with a plan.
"Have any of you thought to go from the other side of the mountain?" asked Colonel Silver. The soldier sounded his embarrassment. "Then try one of the tunnels on the other side dolt!" He then punched the man out of the tent. After a bit, the man regained consciousness and ran to initiate the colonel's orders.
The soldiers made their way to the other side of the mountain, forcing the great moles to walk through the sunlight. One of the trucks hit a bump in the road, causing the door to the cage it was carrying to jerk open. All the young great moles ran out of the cage and into the forest, fearing the condition of the mountain. A multitude of soldiers chased after them, catching them one by one. One of the young moles continued to evade capture, until it bumped into something.
It looked up, then turned around to see the soldiers running towards them. They aimed their guns, but they were instantly taken out by the wide swing of a long object. One stood up and ran at the mysterious figure. He held a knife above his head. He was about to strike, but he suddenly felt an excruciating pain where the sun don't shine.
He fell to his knees as Milla lowered her leg. She turned back to the little mole.
"You okay?" asked Milla. The mole looked at her with sadness, before squeaking in fear as she wrapped it up in a hug. It squealed as it tried to break free. "YOU ARE SO FREAKIN CUTE!" Milla finally heeded it's squeals and let go.
It caught it's breath as it looked around. Milla had taken out the whole team that chased after it. It suddenly got an idea, as it ran past her. It stopped and motioned its head. Milla nodded and followed it.
They soon happened upon the new dig site of the strange army. A truck arrived from the nearby town, and deposited a group of townsfolk. They were ushered along as the soldiers forced them to work on the mines. Milla frowned as she saw the state of the people, and that was only added on to by the abused great moles. She looked down to see the young mole looking at her with the same sad eyes.
"They won't get away with this little buddy. I'm gonna kick them all where it counts!" She ran over to the truck as it prepared to take off. She then flipped it on its side, causing a domino effect on a multitude of trucks beside it. The soldiers who were nearby looked over to see the events unfold before their eyes.
"Someone stop that ape!" shouted one of the soldiers as they caught sight of Milla's tail. A few soldiers ran over to where she was. They were all in a line, when the Power Pole shot between their legs. The soldier in front saw Milla's eyes in the bush, and shook his head. Milla nodded in response, as she made the pole slam upwards.
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" screamed all the soldiers as they slid off the pole from the side. Each soldier was cradled in the fetal position as they felt the pain. Milla ran towards a table and grabbed a bunch of bombs. She threw them in the barrels of empty tanks. The vehicles exploded as she ran towards where they kept the great moles.
Another soldier ran into the colonel's tent.
"SIR!" shouted the soldier. "Some kind of primate is attacking the dig site! It has taken out a multitude of soldiers, and has used our own bombs to destroy our tanks! It can't be human, because it has a black tail!" The colonel stood up and ran for his vehicle.
Back with Milla, she had just arrived at the enclosure for the great moles. She slammed the door down and instantly took out the two guards. She then proceeded to destroy the restraints holding the large moles in place. The huge moles then ran as they bust the large door down. Milla hopped on the back of one of them as she steered them towards the mine.
"Power Pole extend!" shouted Milla as she pointed her staff to the side. She knocked a multitude of soldiers to their feet. She noticed the one she was riding stop as the young great mole ran to them. She hopped off as the adult rubbed its snout against the young one. She awed at the sight of the family reunited.
She heard cries of joy as the townsfolk ran out of the mine. A few grabbed weapons and began to fend off the soldiers. Milla ran over and smacked a few soldiers with her pole. One of the townsfolk pointed to the girl.
"It's Son Milla from the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament!" cried a woman. Milla noticed the crowd began to cheer for her. She chuckled as she rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment. Her ear perked as she heard a vehicle approaching. She turned around to see a jeep coming towards them, with Colonel Silver standing in the back of the jeep, holding a rocket launcher.
"Stand down slaves, or you will not survive my onslaught." ordered Colonel Silver as the jeep came to a stop. He lowered the weapon a bit to get a look at Milla. "So the filthy monkey is a person. A famous one at that." Milla felt the back of her head buzz.
There was something about that sentence that she really didn't like.
"Why are you enslaving people and these adorable great moles? Who are you people?" asked Milla.
"You find those filthy creatinines cute?" Now that sentence really irked her. "Why we're doing this is none of your business. As for your second question, I'm Colonel Silver of the glorious Red Ribbon Army. Otherwise known as your new masters."
"I don't think I can learn any martial arts from you jerks." Colonel Silver laughed as he got down from the Jeep.
"So you think you're hilarious?" He threw the rocket launcher back to the soldier driving the vehicle. He entered a boxing stance. "Let's see how long second place will last you." Milla smirked as she put the Power Poll in its sheath.
They circled each other for a bit. Each in their respective fighting stance. Colonel Silver threw a jab at Milla, but the girl grabbed it and pulled him towards her. She kicked him in the face, then wrapped her tail around him and pulled him back over for a punch. Colonel Silver grabbed his nose as the crowd cheered.
He growled as he ran at the girl again. She just ducked as she tripped him. He stumbled for a bit, before turning around.
"Don't you dare hold back against me girl!" Milla just frowned.
"If you say so, but don't whine when you lose." This time, Milla took the charge. She hopped over the colonel, but wrapped her tail around his shoulder as she did so. She yanked her tail as she landed, using the furry appendage to pull the man to the ground. She kneed him in the back as he fell, and unwrapped her tail.
The colonel shouted in pain as he grabbed his arm. He motioned to the jeep driver with his eyes. The soldier nodded and aimed the rocket launcher at the fighter.
"Look out!" shouted one of the townsfolk. One of them aimed a gun at the weapon, and prepared to fire. He was too late, however, as the soldier fired the weapon. The townsfolk quickly scattered, but Milla didn't budge. Suddenly, the saiyan girl hopped over the rocket.
"NNNNNOOOOOOOO!" shouted Colonel Silver as the rocket hit the ground next to him. There was suddenly a huge explosion, one that could be seen from the nearby town. As the smoke cleared, Colonel Silver could be seen covered in ashes. He coughed as he fell to the ground.
The soldier went to load the weapon again, but he suddenly found himself being held at gunpoint. Milla ran over to the downed colonel to check on him.
"Must be embarrassing to have your cheat backfire on you." said Milla. "I wouldn't know since I don't cheat." The colonel growled, before passing out. The townsfolk returned to the site and cheered for the monkey girl. The ground began to rumble.
All eyes turned to see ally tanks storming the area, along with paramedics. The tanks passed on by and made their way to the town. A few ally soldiers were about to arrest Milla, but the whole town pitched in to declare her innocence. All the Red Ribbon Army members on site were arrested and shipped off to prison, except for a few like Colonel Silver who were sent in for interrogation. Milla felt a tap on the shoulder as some soldiers passed by.
She turned to see a few girls standing nearby.
"It's so awesome to meet you Son Milla." said one of the girls in the group. "We just wanted to say thanks for saving us and all." Milla chuckled as she rubbed the back of her head.
"Glad I could help, I guess." said Milla in embarrassment. Another one of the girls began to rummage through her bag. She suddenly pulled out the five star dragon ball.
"I found this in the mine." said the girl with the dragon ball. "I was gonna use it as a pretty paperweight, but I think you'll have more use of it." Milla's smile widened, but she hid a certain thought in her head. That was probably the reason they went after the town. She kindly accepted the gift, and put it in a bag.
Said bag also held the three, seven and one star dragon balls.
"Thanks." Milla then looked to the sky. "FLYING NIMBUS!" The aforementioned cloud suddenly came down from the sky. She hopped on, then took off for the next destination.
Red Ribbon Army Headquarters
At the main base of the Red Ribbon Army, the leader, Commander Red, was fuming about the humiliating set back at the mine. The red haired man groaned as he prepared to get up. His chair suddenly lowered as he stood up. The short, well dressed man walked over to a phone to make a call. He waited as the phone rang.
"Staff Officer Black speaking." answered a deep voice over the line.
"This is Commander Red." answered the short man. "I'm sure you've heard of the incident at Great Mole Mountain. Not only did the famed Son Milla free the whole town, but she also obtained the dragon ball there. They say she flew away on a golden cloud. I would like you to track the anomaly, blow it out of the sky, and acquire the dragon ball."
"Of course sir, Black out." The staff officer hung up the phone. Commander Red put down the phone and pulled out a tablet. He pulled up an image of Son Milla.
"Where did you come from girl?"
The Skies Above
Milla was checking the Dragon Radar as the Flying Nimbus flew onward. She had four of the dragon balls, but her adopted grandfather's four star dragon ball was not among them. She sighed as she looked out to the horizon. She really wanted to find the wish orb for sentimental reasons. She suddenly heard a ping as she looked down at the radar.
She smiled as she saw that the next dragon ball was near. The joy was short lived, however, as her ear perked. She heard what sounded like a rocket flying nearby. She looked behind her to see just that, and the projectile was heading her way. She pulled a rock out of her bag and threw it at the oncoming missile, causing it to explode.
Sadly, she didn't see the next one coming. It hit the nimbus square on, causing it to dissipate. Milla screamed as she fell from the sky. Her luck was better, seeing as she fell into a large pile of snow. Soon, a truck came by.
A few Red Ribbon Army soldiers exited the vehicle and began to search for the girl. They approached where she landed, but found drag tracks instead. They motioned to the truck and took off in the direction of the tracks. If they would've stayed longer, they would've seen the snow bluff nearby shift a bit. The young great mole Milla saved popped out of the bluff, and quickly dug Milla out of the snow.
It began to drag Milla away from the area. It went on for miles, until it saw an approaching light. It sniffed the air, then curled up in Milla's arms. A small red haired girl came upon the saiyan. She gasped and got to work getting Milla help.
Red Ribbon Army Headquarters
Commander Red quickly answered the phone as it rang.
"Give me some good news." said Commander Red.
"We're sorry sir." apologized the soldier at the other end of the line. "The tracks went cold after a while. They point away from any nearby village. We digged for hours, but we didn't find her buried under the snow. She just, disappeared."
Commander Red growled at the insolence of his own men. He yelled as he hung up the phone.
Jingle Village
In the once happy town of Jingle Village, many were mourning. The Red Ribbon Army had seized control of the town and killed many of their family members. The leader of the village and a multitude of the men went to their base at Muscle Tower to avenge the fallen, but they never came back. We zoom in on one house in particular. In one of the beds, a certain tailed girl began to stir.
"Ugh." groaned Milla as she rubbed her eyes. She looked around, taking in her surroundings. She was in a pink room, with multiple stuffed animals. She got up and stretched. She turned as the door to the room opened.
The red haired girl from earlier had come to check up on Milla. She was about to voice her relief, when the young great mole rushed past her and tackled Milla. Milla laughed as the mole rubbed its head against her.
"You!" shouted Milla in surprise. "How did you get here?" The red haired girl came closer.
"I found him curled in your arms." answered the girl. "You were lucky he was there. If you didn't have his warmth, you might've froze out there." Milla gave the girl a skeptical, but happy smile.
"Thanks for finding me out there. Quick question, who are you and where am I?"
"I'm Suno, and your in my home of Jingle Village." Milla cocked her head. "What's your name?" Milla smiled. Finally. Someone who didn't know who she was.
"I'm Son Milla." She suddenly panicked as she looked around the room. She then looked to Suno. "I had a bag and a pole with me. Do you know where those are?"
"They're down stairs. Come on. You're probably hungry." The whole room was filled with a rumbling sound. Milla chuckled as she was the origin of the sound.
Later on down stairs, Milla was digging in to her food as politely as she could. She wasn't as polite as she wanted to be, but her hosts just wrote it down as her being starving. She literally downed three medium bowls of dumplings. Milla finished her third bowl, and tried to hold back a burp. Milla looked to the side, seeing the Power Pole and her bag in a chair.
She quickly grabbed them as the little great mole ran up to her.
"Hey munchkin." She kneeled down and petted his head. "If you're gonna stay with me, you're gonna need a name." Milla pondered for a bit, until a smile crossed her face. "I think I'll call you, Horus."
The little great mole did what Milla would call a little dance. It suddenly stopped as it sniffed the air. It tackled Milla behind the counter as the door to the house was busted open. Two soldiers walked in, guns in hand. One of them pointed his gun at the mother.
"It's time for tribute." said the other soldier. Suno growled as the man walked forward. Suno's mother opened a drawer and pulled out a wad of cash. She handed it to the soldier, but then he grabbed her wrist. He looked her in the eyes.
"I know you have last week's amount saved up, but this week we had a rise in tribute. You're going to have to come with me to do some work." The woman pulled her hand away from the soldier.
"You think I'm going to come with you after what you did to my husband. I'd rather kiss a frog then do what you want." The soldier laughed.
"Make your next move very carefully. We wouldn't want the girl to go without family." Suno gasped as the man started to walk around the counter. He reached out to grab the woman, when he was tackled by Horus. The other man aimed his gun, but he was suddenly assaulted by the Power Pole.
The first soldier got up and caught sight of Milla. He pulled out his gun and shot Milla in the back. Suno screamed as she ran over to her new friend, but she was kicked away by the soldier. He aimed his gun at her.
"Harboring a fugitive of the army is a serious crime." He smirked as he turned his aim towards Suno's mother. "Your punishment is death." He was about to shoot, but the Power Pole struck again as it knocked him out. Suno looked to Milla in confusion as the saiyan rubbed her back.
"Darn it those things hurt." groaned Milla. She soon saw the confused look on the faces of all who weren't unconscious. "What?"
"You're bullet proof?" asked Suno. Milla looked to the squashed bullet on the ground.
"I guess I am. Anywho, why were those jerks collecting money when they aren't even the government?" Suno's mother walked over.
"The Red Ribbon Army took over Jingle Village a few weeks ago." said the woman with a sad tone to her voice. "We tried to put up a fight, but we suffered major casualties. The village leader and the men went to their base to get rid of them. They never came back." Milla looked to Suno.
"So your dad's with the leader?" Suno couldn't answer, her face became saddened as tears started to come out of her eyes. Milla's frown increased as Suno's mother comforted her.
"We wish he was." Milla looked outside, she noticed a small graveyard in the distance. There were many chips on the tombstones, but she could tell what they were. First enslaving the people and the animals at Great Mole Mountain, and now this? These guys really burn her biscuits.
She looked up to the family.
"You got any spare jackets?" Suno's mother was confused. "I need a spare jacket." Suno's mother nodded and grabbed a light blue jacket. She walked over to her and handed her the requested garment.
"You don't have to leave because you brought up a sensitive subject."
"That ain't why I'm leaving." Suno and her mother gave Milla a worrisome look. "I'm going to this tower to give these jerks a piece of my mind!" She trekked out the door, walking in a random direction. Suno soon gave chase, trying to stop her.
Milla pulled the Dragon Radar out of her pocket, only to see it busted up. She sighed as she looked around. She felt Suno pull at the back of her jacket.
"Don't do it Son!" shouted Suno. Milla turned to Suno.
"One, Son is my family name. Two, someone's gotta help your people." Suno gave Milla a sad expression.
"You won't make it through the tower. A whole group of men went in there and never came out. You won't..." She stopped as she felt Horus run past her. Milla smirked as she petted the little great mole.
"The thing is, I'm no man. I'm not even really human if my tail has anything to say about it. I've dealt with these losers before, so I know I can make it through. Don't worry, and take care of Horus for me okay?" Milla got up and began to run in the direction she chose.
"You know you're going the wrong way right?" Milla turned back to Suno. "I can show you the way. I'm not gonna let you have all the fun." Milla smiled. Suno was definitely going to be one of her best friends. She followed the red head as they approached Muscle Tower.
The girls hunkered down behind a nearby snow bluff as they arrived at the base. They were a good distance from the tower, so they wouldn't be easily spotted should they decide to stand. Milla looked at the entrance. There seemed to be no one there, but she knows that they're probably inside. She suddenly saw a blur, which she grabbed, revealing it to be Horus.
"Hold on little buddy." said Milla as she put him on the ground. "You can't just go rushing in there. We need a plan. The first thing we need to do is figure out away in. Then we can find a way to get any captives out."
Milla pondered for a bit. She felt scratching at her leg, so she looked down to see an excited and eager Horus. That's when she got an idea. She whispered to Horus. The mole nodded, then began to dig.
Inside Muscle Tower, the leader of Jingle Village was looking over the men. It really was a foolish decision to just rush into battle. They didn't stand a chance against the machines of the terrorists. He let his people down. He sat down to mourn, when he heard a squeak.
He suddenly shot up as he saw a young great mole come out of the ground below him. It motioned its head, trying to get the man to stand back. It growled, finally getting the result it wanted. It suddenly dug around the outside of the hole, making it much larger. The leader leaned closer as he heard a loud noise.
Milla suddenly hopped out of the hole with Suno climbing out soon after.
"Quickly!" shouted Milla as she pointed her pole to the hole. "Now's your chance!" The man smiled as he began to rally his men.
"You heard her men!" shouted the man. "Let's go home!" The men cheered as they ran for the hole. The village leader ushered the men into the hole, but he noticed Milla, Suno, and Horus were missing. "Where did the children go?"
Milla and Suno ran up the stairs to the next floor. Unknown to them, someone was watching them through a camera. A large, muscular man with silver hair and sky blue eyes stared at the monitor. He wore a green sweater with a red neck bandana, jackboots and brown cargo pants. The man growled as he picked up his communicator.
"Attention all soldiers." said the man. "This is General White. We have a break in. Please deal with the two runts and their hideous creature, but bring the black haired girl alive. She has one of the dragon balls."
Milla was about to open the door to the first floor, but she stopped as her ear perked. She pulled out the Power Pole as she slowly opened the door. She looked around without entering the room. A figure slowly moved towards a light in the room. A soldier jumped the figure, only to see he was holding a sack of potatoes.
He was suddenly whacked from behind by the Power Pole. Milla hopped beside him and pulled his unconscious body behind a vehicle. Another soldier jumped at Milla, but Suno whacked him in the back of the head with a pipe. Milla turned to Suno and gave her a thumbs up. Horus scuttled over to them as they sneaked their way to the next set of stairs.
"Why are we just sneaking around?" asked Suno in a quiet voice. Milla looked back to her friend.
"We have to be careful where we hit." answered Milla. "If we hit them in the wrong spot, the amount of reinforcements that come at us will be too much. Plus I wanna find out if there are any hostages up here before we trash the place." Suno nodded as Milla quietly moved through the next room. Horus squeaked, alerting Milla to an approaching soldier.
She swept him off his feet and caught him in a backflip kick. She turned and wrapped her tail around the ankle of another one, making him hit the ground with a hard thud. She hopped on his torso and rapidly punched his face until he was unconscious. She heard an unmanly squeal as she turned to see one of the soldiers running from Horus. He ran into a fourth soldier, knocking both the man and himself out cold.
Milla and the gang quickly ran up the next flight of stairs. General White was somewhat impressed. The girl, Son Milla, showed some skill in strategy. He was disappointed to find a weak link in his army, however. He smirked as he picked up the communicator once again.
"This is General White." said the general. "You have some rats coming your way. Bring me the black haired one with the tail. Do what you want with the others." All he received was laughter from the other end of the line.
Milla quietly opened the door to the next floor. It seemed to be some sort of gym. There was a chair in the middle with a side table, but there was no occupant. She motioned her hand as she moved forward. She suddenly ducked as a large weight was thrown her way.
She turned in the direction the attack came from to see a tall, purple haired man who looked like he came straight from that robot movie that Schwarzenegger guy stared in. He ran at her with his fist cocked back. She hopped on top of his arm and kicked him in the face. The man barely even flinched. He grabbed her face with his other hand and held her against the wall.
Suno ran at him and hit him with a pipe she found. He let go as he grabbed his face. He lowered his hand and looked at the little red head. Half his face was torn off, revealing a robotic skeleton face. She stood there shocked as he reached for her.
Suddenly, he was hit in his robot skull by a strange yellow light. Suno turned to see Milla with an outstretched hand.
"Boy am I glad I quickly learned that technique my brother used in my newest memory." said Milla as she watched the robot man rise to his feet again. The one noticeable detail is that he was missing his head. He walked slowly toward them. "OH COME ON!" Milla pulled out the Power Pole as she prepared to do battle.
He ran at them, but he completely missed since he couldn't see. He continued to charge and miss them. It got to the point that Milla and Suno were sitting down to play go fish. In his monitor room, General White was rubbing his temples over the whole ordeal. Milla looked over to Suno, plotting her next move.
"Do you have any threes?" Suno looked up at Milla, and just threw the last cards in her hand on the ground.
"How are you so good at this game?!" asked Suno. "Either Horus is helping you cheat or you're just that lucky." Milla smiled as she brought out a small box and began to put the cards away.
"I'm just that lucky." Suno crossed her arms and huffed.
"One more game."
"We have to move on. It looks like the big guy is out of steam." Suno looked over to their opponent and saw him slowly coming to a halt. He made a noise that sounded like he was out of juice. Suno sighed as the group moved along.
General White growled at the incompetence of his entire force. Why did Commander Red assign him so many failures? He didn't even bother informing the next floor's guards about the situation as they probably already know what's going on due to all the ruckus on the previous floor. He didn't even care if they killed the girl. There's no way that the guards on the fourth floor will be such disappointments, right?
Milla quickly entered the room as she scouted out the area. The place seemed to be a robot factory, save for a man made forest and a traditional Japanese house. There was one thing that quickly caught her attention. There was this huge Frankenstein looking guy caught in a cage. She knew he had the Red Ribbon Army logo, but that was no excuse for him to be in that predicament.
"Whatcha doin'?" asked Milla as she hung from a rafter by her tail.
"Waiting till I'm given orders." responded the large man. "I believe it is customary for one to introduce themselves at this point in the conversation." Milla smiled at the sight of the man's friendly nature.
"I'm Son Milla. What's your name?"
"I am designated as Android Eight." Milla gave him a puzzled look.
"So you're an android?" Android Eight shook his head. Meanwhile, Suno and Horus were slowly walking through the mechanical floor. They were looking for Milla before they move on to the next floor. Horus suddenly tackled Suno to the ground as a shuriken came flying at them.
"The mole is smarter than I thought." said a nearby voice. They looked up at the rafters to see a ninja standing on one of them. He had black hair which he held in a ponytail tied with a white bandage-like cloth. He wore a dark purple kimono with a fishnet shirt underneath it, a pair of dark purple pants, a sky blue sash, a pair of white tabi socks, and a pair of straw waraji sandals. He reached for the sword on his back and hopped to the ground.
"Who are you?" asked Suno.
"I am the great shinobi, Murasaki. Be prepared, for it is the last name you will ever learn." He ran at Suno, sword in hand. He was about to slash, when Horus jumped in his face. He screamed as he dropped his blade and tried to pull the mole off.
Suno saw her chance and kicked the blade away. She held her pipe and swung it at the ninja. He voiced his pain as Horus continued to scratch at his face and Suno continued to whack him in the side. He finally threw Horus off and kicked Suno away. He growled as he pulled out some kunai, but his opponents were nowhere to be found.
"I'll find you little girl, and your hideous beast too!" He ran in search of his foe. Back with Milla, she was having a nice conversation with Android Eight. The man was a really nice guy. She really couldn't see him doing anything evil.
"Why do you even let them control you?" asked Milla. "You're inteligent enough to make your own choices."
"I honestly do not want to, but the bomb in my chest keeps me under control." Milla growled at that sentence. She suddenly came up with an idea. She shot a small ki blast at the lock of the cage, freeing the android.
"Bulma taught me a few tricks, so I think I can help you with that."
Back with Suno, she was running through the forest like garden as she tried to avoid the angry ninja. She turned at one of the trees, only to see Murasaki staring back at her. He began to walk towards her, and suddenly split into six identical versions of himself, each sporting a different weapon. They were about to pounce, when a long staff launched them all into different trees. Suno smiles and looked to the source.
"Milla!" cheered Suno. Milla smirked as she wiped something from her cheek. The ninja and his clones stood up and faced their opponent. They were about to fight, but one of the clones squealed like a fan boy. Everyone looked at him with confused faces.
"Bros!" shouted the clone in a different voice. "It's that girl from the martial arts tournament. The one that made it all the way to the final round. It's Son Milla!" Three of the other clones suddenly made sounds of surprise as they recognized her.
"Aren't you guys supposed to be clones?" asked Milla. "Why do you have different voices?" She was ignored as the four "clones" geeked out. That's when Milla caught on. "You're not really clones!"
The real Murasaki growled as he smacked his face.
"You idiots had to blow our cover!" shouted Murasaki. He suddenly felt a large hand on his shoulder. He looked up to see Android Eight comforting him. He was surprised to say the least, but this was too perfect. "Eliminate then all Android Eight!"
The android would surely be too much for this group of intruders to...
"No." answered Android Eight. There was no reaction for a moment.
"WHAT!?" Android Eight looked him straight in the eye.
"I don't want to fight. I make my own choices from now on. Milla taught me that I have a say in my life, so I am forever in her debt." Murasaki angrily pulled out a remote. His brothers screamed as they ran for cover.
"You do realize your existence rides on if I press this button or not right? Now do as you're told or I'll blow you sky high!" Android Eight did something else Milla taught him. He folded his arms in defiance.
"Go ahead then. I'm obviously defective." General White, seeing this over the monitor, picked up his communicator.
"Murasaki!" shouted General White over the com. "Give the traitor what he wants." Murasaki smiled as he went to press the button. Suno was about to stop him, when Milla stopped her with a smile on her face. Murasaki presses the button, and an explosion went off.
The explosion destroyed the assembly line nearby. Murasaki watched in shock as his brothers went flying into their house. He looked over to Milla, who held up an oil stained rag. He growled as he pulled out some shuriken. Android Eight bonked him on the top of the head, causing him to go unconscious.
"I'm so confused right now." said Suno with all honesty. Milla patted her shoulder and guided her over.
"Suno, this is Android Eight." introduced Milla. "I decided to call him Andrew Stein." Suno gave her a confused look. "The name Franky was taken." Suno thought about it for a bit, then let out a light chuckle.
"It is very nice to meet you miss Suno." greeted Android... I mean Andrew.
"Same." Horus walked up and sniffed him. The mole then rubbed up against the android.
"This is Horus, my baby great mole." said Milla. Andrew kneeled down and petted the mole. Since introductions were over, Milla led the group up the next flight of stairs. They were soon faced with a hall with a single wall. Milla went to walk around it, but the wall suddenly moved in her way.
She tried a few more times, but the wall was too fast to get around. Laughter soon rang through the hall.
"You can't get past here." declared General White over a speaker. "This wall is designed to instantly move at the swipe of a control stick. You'd have to be faster than the wall to get past!" He continued to laugh as Milla pondered his words. He looked at the screen, then choked at the sight of what the gang was doing.
Milla was standing on one side of the hall while Andrew had Suno and Horus on his shoulders at the other. They both walked forward at the same pace. At the rate they were walking, both of them would walk around the wall at the same time. He was furious at the fact that he was outwitted by a child. He shouted in rage as Milla waved to the camera by the speaker.
"I'm surrounded by idiots, and their idiotic nature has sadly found its way to me." Suddenly, he hatched up a plan. Milla and the group reached the next floor, but it was closed off.
"What's with this room?" asked Milla.
"This room has no real entrance." answered Andrew. "It's meant to be a hidden room." Milla harrumphed as she walked up a flight of stairs. The group soon reached the sixth and final floor. General White swiveled his chair as he turned to meet the team.
"So you were both skilled and cunning enough to reach the top of the pristine Muscle Tower." said General White as he slowly clapped. "I must say I am impressed. Sadly, the attack stops here." He pressed a button, pulling up a screen. "In the basement, all the men from Jingle Village are being held. If you take one step closer, I'll turn on the heaters, and they'll burn to... WHAT!?"
The screen showed an empty basement. He eyed the hole in the middle of the floor.
"We actually already busted them out when we came here." corrected Milla. The General rubbed his temples as Milla and Andrew took a few steps forward. The general suddenly smiled as he pressed a button. Milla, Andrew, and Horus fell into the fifth floor. Suno watched as the trap door closed.
She was about to attack the general, when he grabbed her by the hair and pulled her towards a huge glass viewing window. She watched as all three of her companions rose to their feet. Milla looked around, then spotted Suno and General White above. She pulled out the Power Pole and whacked at the glass, but to no avail, she was about to charge an attack, when a noise caught her attention.
The ground rumbled as a giant pink monster walked towards them. The general laughed as Milla ran at it. She kicked it square in the face, but it didn't budge. She hopped away before it could chow down on her. She looked to her android friend.
"What is that?" asked Milla. The android turned his gaze to Milla.
"It's the Monster of Muscle Tower, Buyon." answered Andrew. "Any physical attack that hits him will just bounce off. He also has a stun based energy attack." Milla nodded as she tried to think of a plan. An idea hit her head.
The group all split up into different directions as they dodged the tongue of Buyon. Milla bounced off the wall and passed over Buyon. The beast stretched out its tongue again, but Milla charged up an attack.
"KAMEHAMEHA!" shouted Milla as she sent the attack down its gullet. The beam cut off a piece of the tongue as it went through. To Milla's surprise. The attack only made its stomach hurt. It roared as it sent a paralyzing beam attack from its antennas. Milla was stunned as Buyon grabbed her in its hand.
The creature brought her closer to its mouth, but then Horus rammed its stomach. Some snow that was on his back flung onto Buyon's stomach. The beast shivered as it dropped Milla. Horus signaled to Andrew, who nodded. The android punched the cold spot on Buyon, and it shattered.
The beast rolled onto its back as it roared in agony. Andrew took this time to check on Milla. He helped her to stand as Horus made multiple gestures to his owner. Milla nodded as she looked to the wall. She charged up a ki blast and tore a hole in the wall.
Buyon suddenly froze completely. Horus ran over to the monster and smacked it with its claw. The beast completely shattered. General White let go of Suno as he gawked at the sight. Suno ran over and pressed the button for the trap door.
Milla was the first to hop through. Sadly, that meant she was the one to be hit by the butt of the gun General White was holding. Milla screamed as she grabbed the side of her head. She fought back tears as General White stood over her. He pointed his gun at her.
"It's time to end this." said General White as he readied to pull the trigger. Suddenly, he felt an ominous wind behind him. He turned to see Andrew standing over him. The android's fave was twisted in anger. He crushed the barrel of the gun.
"YOU...HURT...MILLA!" shouted Andrew as he beat down on the general. His cries of pain were heard throughout the tower. Outside, the village leader was waiting for the girls to come out of the tower. He sent his men to the village to tend to the villagers, but he couldn't leave the young heroes behind. He heard the door to the tower open, and prepared for the worst.
Imagine his surprise when the girls came out as Andrew pulled the unconscious soldiers on a huge sled. He was wary of the android, but the girls assured him that Andrew was on their side. When they returned to the village, the gang were treated to a celebratory dinner, which Milla enjoyed greatly. Suno got chewed out by her mother, but that was followed by a huge hug. Later on, Milla was getting ready to leave.
She suddenly remembered something important.
"I FORGOT TO LOOK FOR THE DRAGON BALL BACK AT THE TOWER!" shouted Milla in shock. She mentally scolded herself for forgetting such an important detail.
"I believe this is what you're referring to." said Andrew. Milla turned around to see the android handing her the six star dragon ball. Milla breathed a sigh of relief as she took the orb from her friend.
"Thanks Andrew. Hope Jingle Village will be a good home for you. I promise to visit some time." The android nodded to Milla, then walked away, revealing Suno. "I guess this is goodbye huh?"
Suno wrapped Milla in a hug.
"Thank you for saving my village." said Suno. Milla smiled as the red head let go. "What are you gonna do now?" Milla pulled out the broken dragon radar.
"I'm gonna get this fixed, then I'm gonna find the rest of the dragon balls. Maybe take down those Red Ribbon jerks along the way." Suno gave Milla a worrying look, but then smiled at her. Milla then turned while holding her chin. "Now I just have to figure out how to get around without my magic cloud."
"You mean a Flying Nimbus?" Milla turned to Suno and nodded her head. "You do know that only a magic being can destroy those right?" Silence filled the area.
"YOU MEAN IT'S NOT DEAD!?" Suno shook her head. Milla rubbed her temples as Horus ran over to her. She picked him up, then waved to the village one last time. She rushed off into the distance, letting the cold air rush into her lungs. "Flying Nimbus!"
The golden cloud came down from the sky and flew beside her. She smiled as she hopped on. Suno watched her friend fly off into the sunset. Suno walked back towards her house. She suddenly stopped as she saw the village leader talking to a strange man.
She approached the leader as the man walked off.
"Who was that sir?" asked Suno. The village leader kneeled down to look Suno in the eye.
"Just a man named Tarble." answered the leader.
Didn't see that coming, did ya? Tarble was indeed sent to Earth instead of wherever he came from in the special. There will definitely be a meeting between him and Milla, but you'll have to wait a little longer for that. Also, fun fact. I based the name for Horus off what google translate says is the Japanese word for dig. What do you think of this chapter? Did you like the changes I made? Let me know in a review down below. Anywho, see you guys next time!
