Bulma knew that she and Yamcha was going to be the first ones there. The airport was packed but she knew Yamcha couldn't sense anyone here yet on a count of the fact he wasn't dragging her around anywhere.

The flight had been long had she had hope everyone would be here so they could just register, and she could go to the hotel. But something here was indeed wrong however and it was the level of security in the airport.

In Tournament past sure there had been a lot of security because it was a big event. But this time they weren't all normal cops or airport staff. No these were army guys and not just Royal troops but KRA troopers in full uniform with their black uniforms and glowing red eyes.

They were creepy looking to say the least. However, it only confirmed what she already suspected. He was coming here too, worse yet there were some in the crowd that seemed excited by this fact. That handled trident was on plenty of people's shirts and tattooed on people's skin. The Saiyan Imperial logo they called it. It was his logo and it had very much spread.

She remembered what that boy had tried to do to her on that mountain all those years ago. She wasn't food damn it. It made her sick that these idiots were buying the shit he had been feeding the world. But if Chi-Chi beat him fair and square at the Tournament however, it would be over and maybe everyone would get off the Kool aid before it was too late hopefully.

Bulma, Yamcha and Puar stood there for quite a while until finally the others started to show up. First Krillin and Roshi came along with Oolong. It was surprising that Krillin had grown at all to her. He was still short but at least he was finally past her knees. Krillin rushed up to them.

"Hi guys. Long time no see. So, where's the bundle of diapers?"

Bulma now angrily asked "Really that all you're going to ask us?"

"Well the kid is more interesting. Don't you know how it works? You two are just the kids carrying case."

Yamcha laughed and said, "Babe lighten up he's just joking with us."

Bulma sizzled and brooded as Krillin and Yamcha caught up.

"So, man how was it up there on the Tower?"

"Amazing. That cat knows somethings I tell you."

"Korin's a Cat?"

"Yeah weird isn't. But I suppose the King is a blue Yorkshire terrier so it's not the weirdest thing around."

"Sure, but still I wonder what then Kami looks like?"

"Yeah I always imagined a fat bald smiling guy."

"I always imagined a white hair super tall old man with a long beard."

"Cultural differences I guess."

"Who knows maybe after all this you can go and train with him like Cheech did."

It was then that something showed up that took their voices away. They were left all speechless by a green haired Launch holding a green hair three eyed baby next to Tien and Chiaotzu coming out of the crowd and coming towards them was seen.

Bulma knew they had been seeing each other but still she didn't expect this. She at least expected a phone call at least with this kind of major news damn it. Everybody stopped what they were doing and rushed over to the happy couple.

Krillin and Yamcha were quick to give their congratulations to Tien while Bulma was over to Launch and her babe in a heartbeat. She was quick to examine the boy like it was a piece of art.

Bulma giddy said "Oh my Kami they always so cute at this age."

In a baby voice Launch said, "Yeah the poop factory is quite adorable."

Bulma sighed at her comment "Oh Launch."

"Hey all I have to do is say things with a cute voice and he'll laugh at it. He doesn't understand jack yet and I'm taking advantage.

Bulma then gave an angry look to Launch who cringed a little at the bluenette's furry. "So why am I only finding out about this now?" Kunlun shifted in Launch's arms uncomfortable at the sudden change of tone.

Launch gulped then put a brave face saying, "We were busy, and I didn't think of it."

Bulma darkly then stated, "I expect a call next time." Her voice then changed to a much more cheery tone. "So are you too married."

"Nah."

"Nah?"

"I hate dresses and seem like a lot of money. Its better I spent it on something I want to spend it on rather than some stupid ceremony."

"Oh well I guess that's one way of doing it. Can't say I could ever see myself doing that, but I guess to each their own."

"So, Tien, you and Launch." He asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah." He nodded with a smirk.

"Cool."

Krillin sighed then said, "Man everybody but me."

"Cheer up buddy you haven't even been tried anything yet. Theirs's still Cheech you can work your magic on."

"I don't know. Would she even go for me?"

"You certain won't be wooing her with that attitude. Look man you can win her over I mean Tien was a complete ass when we meet him and Launch still went for him."

Tien glared then sighed at Yamcha over his comment, he chuckled "Bro you can't angry you know it was true."

"Yes, but that doesn't mean I need reminding of it."

"Right. Sorry. Krillin just let the master instruct you and I'm sure you'll be able to score."

Tien sighed and rolled his eyes while Krillin seemed to be desperate to hear what he had to say.

Everybody was frozen in conversation again as out of the crowd Chi-Chi made her appearance. She had come here in her nimbus only coming here because she had sensed them all here. The little girl that had saved the world had just been replaced by the woman before them.

To Krillin it was like something out of his dreams. In her orange and blue gi. Her short black hair. Her onyx eyes and well-toned features. Krillin was in a different universe as the others came to her.

Bulma hugged her and said "Oh my Kami Chi-Chi it's been so long! How have you been? How's it been going?"

"Fine. I've only just training for this day."

"With the way that you train I don't think anyone could beat you. By the way can you set an argument between me and Krillin. What does Kami look like?"

"I'm sure you all trained hard and as for Kami…well he kind of… wait why does Launch have green hair and a baby with three eyes?"

Launch laughed at that "To answer your question the hair is about finding some inter-peace crap and the babe is about a night well it was more a week of nonstop fun leading to me getting knock up. You know you can't drink when you're pregnant or breast feeding for that matter. I knew about the pregnant part but the breast-feeding part a real bitch."

"So, Tien and you?"

"You see any other three eyed people around kiddo?"

"Wow I guess I did miss a lot. Speaking of which Bulma. Where's your kid?"

Bulma "Well Trunks has been quite the hand full lately. I figured he would just be fussy, so I left him with my mom. Me and Yamcha kind of needed a break from the little hell raiser. I figure after the Tournament you can meet him."

"I'd like that."

Roshi who had been ginning looking at the three-woman talking came up behind them and then said. "Girls I think it's time for a group hug." He said while getting right up close to them. Launch and Bulma stared daggers at him.

"Aw come on just one little hug?" His hands were coming towards their bottoms. Launch growled and then uppercuted him on the chin. Sending him flying into the air to the shock of the crowd. The boys sighed while Bulma was drinking it in. Oolong piped up.

"We can't bring him anywhere."

"You're one to talk pig."

"Hey, I'm a lot more subtle then him at least."

The group burst out into laughter as Roshi picked himself of the ground grumbling about he was just trying to be nice. The laughter was soon silenced as the fighters suddenly became quite quiet. As a presence had just made itself known.

Chi-Chi first then the others rushed to a window. To see a plane with a KRA logo and a handled trident tattooed plane having landed. It wasn't long up until he and his entourage were at the terminal.

He looked just as her dreams predicted. He was tall and muscular even with the military dress uniform on. He had on a ton of medal had he had probably given himself. He had the same palm hair and the same devil's grin. The red sunglasses however were new, but she knew he would be soon wearing his armor with his onyx eyes visible soon

Her body was yet again betraying her heart skipped a beat even as she knew what he was. He flashed the peace signs to the crowds that had gathered to meet him. They were fools she knew.

Yamcha said with his look of disgust "Well that just turns my stomach."

Krillin said visible angry "Asshole looks like he's having fun."

Chiaotzu tilted his head and said, "He doesn't feel much stronger."

Tien shook his head and said, "We can't underestimate him guys."

Roshi sensing the deception said, "Don't be fooled he must have been training as hard as the rest of you. This is just another one of his jokes."

Launch spat at the ground "The creep ought to be taught a lesson."

The others nodded in agreement.

Roshi, Launch and Tien's eyes went small when they saw who was coming from behind Kakarrot. A green turban headed familiar looking demon with a cape and a purple gi with at its center a handled trident.

Chi-Chi sighed thinking 'Just what I was expecting I hope the others don't get wind. A panic is all we need right know.'

Tien whispered in her ear "Is that?"

Chi-Chi whispered back "I'll explain later."

She knew there was no putting this off, so she waited along with the others. The cameras of the media were poured in as the crowd became unruly. She knew he was coming. She did know what he was going to say or do but she was getting ready.

He came towards them with quite the racket. People were asking him question after question and he was just waving them off. It was after one of his henchmen pushed one reporter out of the way so that the two's eyes meet. Chi-Chi felt her heart speed up she even felt herself becoming hot.

He was getting closer about to speak when some people moved between Kakarrot and Chi-Chi. Not her friends but cops. A man wearing a bullet proof vest with the word Marshal on front and back. A man with a cowboy hat with a badge that said Sheriff on it with. Along with a few Swat team and a Sheriff's deputy without a hat in black sunglass and black gloves.

Chi-Chi sensed their nervousness something was about to go down. The Marshal yelled out "Kakarrot Gero you are under arrest for the murder of Master Shen of the Crane School."

The airport in its entirety then became deadly silent. The tension in the room became omnipresent. As everyone with a gun in the airport clutched at their firearms. There were people in the lanes of fire everywhere.

Chi-Chi did some mental math, and there was no way would she be able to take all of them out in time. A bunch of people were about to die, and she couldn't stop it. This was not the place for this at all.

Everyone raised their guns as it looked as though this was about to become a blood. The stun Kakarrot then smiled and started to laugh out loud. Piccolo and General Green who were behind him then started to chuckle as well.

Kakarrot darkly said "Alright." He put his hand up towards them locked together to make it easier. "Well what you waiting for little man? Let's see how well this goes for you."

"Well Deputy put the cuffs on him."

Sheriff looking at the henchman "Maybe this isn't such a good idea Marshall."

The deputy was hesitating staring into the black holes that are Kakarrot's eyes. The Marshall was becoming frustrated.

"What are you doing arrest him damn it!"

"Marshall if you haven't noticed your about to start world war fucking three right now."

"Shut the hell up! Deputy arrest him already!"

The Deputy backed a way as the Sheriff sighed and put his hand on the Deputy's shoulder. The Marshall getting pissed

"We're leaving."

"WHAT!?"

"Excellent choice Sheriff. Marshall you should be thanking this man. He may have just saved your life."

The Marshall violently pointed at Kakarrot "This man is a murderer!"

The Sheriff looked around at the very crowded airport, boasting children and maybe a thousand or so people then said, "Yeah I know."

The cops took off with the Marshall in a huff. Kakarrot gave a look at all of the gang. They cringed or gave a dirt look depending on who it was. He then looked at Chi-Chi and with a smile and said, "Be seeing ya."

Kakarrot and his group were soon off as the people in the airport then remembered how to breath. The registration for this Tournament was far easier. They signed up and Chi-Chi was a little disappointed that Launch won't be attending but it made sense and Chiaotzu decided to bow out too.

The day was easy too as everyone was catching up as they ate, and Chi-Chi was asked stories about her training, but something was bugging Chi-Chi as she was getting ready to go to bed while a thunderstorm was raging outside.

Last time he went monkey and killed Shen there was a Tournament. There was no way that if he started to lose this time, he won't do something similar. The airport had nearly turned into a blood bath. She had to get him to agree to not do something like that again.

She chastised herself but she felt compelled to at least try. She left her hotel out the window and came to his hotel. He was in the executive suite. He wasn't at all hiding himself at all. His window was even open smiling sitting on his king-sized bed like he had been expecting her.

The room had plenty of flowers and had an aroma to it. She didn't know how but the place smell like him. He was out of his uniform and in a grey gi like the one from the last Tournament even down to the red sash. Her mind was flashing back to the boy from that time on that romantic night.

Chi-Chi dripping wet cold at first but not caring in the least about it "I've come here to ask you to leave the others out of this. This is between you and me. You can't just freak out and start killing people."

Kakarrot chuckled at her "I agree but the thing is I'm not competing so it's sort of a mute issue."

"What?!"

Kakarrot was smiling a curious grin "Oh its true. I am merely going to observe this time."

"What game are you playing and what are you planning"

"Games are for children and I'm not planning anything."

"Yeah like I can believe that!"

"Then why are you here?"

"I told you…"

He interrupted asking her "If you don't believe my word then why were you here to ask for it in the first place?"

He got up and she felt herself shiver a bit as he walked over to her.

"Why are you really here Cheech?"

Chi-Chi stared into his eyes her checks bright red after looking into his eyes "I think I hate you."

"I'm still not hearing an answer Cheech." He turned from her. "Well if that is it then I guess I'll be seeing you…"

Chi-Chi grabbed him by the arm and spun him around and she then kissed him deeply. The two sucked face as Chi-Chi's hands came to his chest removing his gi.

For but a second he pulled her off and said grinning "Now that's what I thought." Their faces pressed back together as he started to remove her clothing and his tail wrapped around her waist.

The thunder clapped as the lights went out and the dark and stormy night only seemed to become darker and murkier. It seemed destined to go on forever before the mourning could vanquish it and its horrors.

Elsewhere on the planet an eye patched man was looking at a ship with the Capsule Corp logo on it. It was big. The size of a two-story building. It had plenty of quarters a living room and two bathrooms.

The doctor had made it to stay in deep space for years. He had given it water purifiers, waste recyclers, oxygen refreshers the whole nine yards. It could keep a team alive up there for years.

Mai came over to him and said to him. "So, you like it."

"Worse comes to worse it might be home."

"You like the team I assembled as well?"

"I have to admit you did your homework. They will make a good strike team. This might mankind's last hope."

"Hopefully not. Cheech normally has this sort of thing in the bag."

"I'd agree with you, but have you ever heard of Murphy's Law. The long and short of it is that everything could go to shit very quickly. Better that we have back up plans."

"Well we'll find out tomorrow now won't we."

"Yeah I guess we will."

Well so that was a poor decision to say the least by Chi-Chi. Can you tell I just played Farcry Five? And anyone else believe Kakarrot about not having a plan because if so, I have a bridge I want to sell you. Tournament begins next time. I'll be seeing yah.
