I am so sorry for late updates! Am I bad? Yes. But don't worry, if you get bored waiting, read/reread the series by dragonball787! It's completely worth it.

Chapter 11: the seven star ball

"Oh! You mean a orange ball with red stars in it?"

"-well, yea! How did you know?" Bulma raised an eyebrow. She had just finished relating their story to Lunch, and her two new friends Tien and Chiaotzu.

"I have one right here!" Brunette Lunch smiled and pulled out a dragonball. "Bondie borrowed it without permission from some nice guy at an antique shop." Chi Chi snatched the ball out of Lunch's hands and stared at it. "One, two, three, four, five, six -oh! Bulma, this is the seven-star ball! We have four balls now!"

Radditz snickered, but shut up when the little prince punched him in the arm.

YYYYY SOMEWHERE IN THE DEPTHS OF SPACE YYYYY

"What do you mean, they stayed there?!"

Zorn could not help but flinch. He had served under King Vegeta for years, and was somewhat used to his hostility, but her Majesty was as, if not more, intimidating that the King when she wanted to be.

"Your Majesty, My Queen, the King sent us back from Earth. He, his highness the Prince, the third class Bardock and his offspring, and the royal bodyguard Nappa on that planet as well. For what reasons we are not sure. We got back quicker as Earth's ships are a lot faster than our own..."

Rosicheena pursed her lips. "Prepare me a Earth ship and stock it up. Send it the coordinates of Earth and prepare for takeoff in an hour." Zorn was taken aback by her order. "What?" The Queen whirled around and glared at her husband's adviser."Did I stammer, weakling?"

Zorn gulped. "N-no, your majesty. Right away." The only two who could match the Queen in strength were the King and the young Prince, both currently absent. Zorn wanted to keep his head and tried his best not to be on the wrong end of the queen's wrath. He hurried out of the throne room.

"You know, you don't have to be so hard on him," said a voice from the end of the room.

"Oh Gine, your kids are on that backwater planet as well. How can you not worry?" Rosicheena turned to the long-haired saiyan at the back of the room. Bardock's mate, previously ignored, tapped her friend on the shoulder. "Nothing will go wrong. It's not like they will meet any dangerous enemies there, right?"

YYYYY BACK TO EARTH YYYYY

Radditz was dying. He would lose it soon if he didn't seek help immediately, and by the looks of it there was no available help within miles.

"I'm dying…" he coughed. "Boredom won't kill you." Tights returned from the driver's seat. Radditz sighed and turned on the car boot. Here he was, with the ability to fly, stuck riding primitive Earth technology with a self-proclaimed genius (Tights), a love-sick idiot (Yamcha), his annoying extending stick-wielding brother (Kakarot) with his talkative, loud mate (Chi Chi), a three-eyed creep (Tien) and his midget clown friend (Chiaotzu), along with that scary split-personality bimbo (Lunch), and of course not forgetting annoyingly smart little-miss-blue (Bulma) and her overprotective prince (Vegeta). He sighed again. "This is what my life has been reduced too."

He turned again, gazing through the window. The love-sick idiot who can't tell his left from his right giving directions to the self-proclaimed genius who can't drive, his annoying extending stick-wielding brother playing with his talkative loud mate, split-personality bimbo yapping to bored tree-eyed creep and midget clown, and... oh-overprotective prince curled up with annoyingly-smart little-miss-blue. "They look cute… blackmail." Raditz smirked.

Who knows how many years (one hour) had passed on the road before Radditz gave up. he hopped off the car, and, with everyone still on board, picked it up.

"Yahh!?" Tights shrieked as the vehicle tilted dangerously to one side, before rising into the air. Vegeta glared at the teen lifted the car. "What gives?!" he yelled, mad at having his little nap interrupted.

"If you help, we can fly everyone to the next dragonball." Radditz rolled his eyes. Vegeta, realising it was not a bad idea, flew out the window and supported the other side of the hovercar. Kakarot, however, remained on board oblivious to his surroundings-as usual.

"Which way?" Vegeta barked.

"Right!" Tights yelled. The saiyan boys steered the car to the right, but was interrupted by another shout, "No! Other right!"

Radditz growled. Maybe, he thought sourly, it wasn't the love-sick weakling who was direction-confused after all.
