Things worked out in the end. Deadeye, well for now we put him in a Jail Cell and cuffed his leg to a ball and chain. Still though, I'm glad he didn't have to be killed though. I think everyone can change and well hopefully Deadeye will. As for afterwards, well" Flash stopped. After that whole experience with all those girls. He elected to skim over that part. Continuing to wirte.

Everyone celebrated the. Well as I speak they still are! It's really amazing on how long people can party for. As for me? well as I'm writing this I'm in the process of packin' my stuff up. I'm pretty sure it's midnight by now but I think I can make my next trip. Speaking of which. I've been playing with the Radar a little, getting the kinks and stuff down. Anyways, the next Dragon Ball that's nearby is north from where I am. I think if I get an early start now I might be able to go in and out all in one day.

So as I'm writing this. 3 Dragon Balls, 4 to go!

*Knock, Knock, Knock.*

Flash cocked his head up from his journal to hear knocking at the door. He closed his journal. Letting whoever it was in. "Uh...Come in."

The door opened. Revealing the knocker to be Sunflower. She peaked her head from out the corner. "Hey Flash."

Flash smiled. Nodding and waiving his hand. "Hey, what's up?"

She opened the door fully. Walking inside. She saw that Flash was now wearing a white T-Shirt instead of the long collared shirt from before. That gave her a good view of Flash's muscle definition. It was decent but not too crazy.

That made her blush almost immediately. As seeing that didn't help her case. But, she shook her head. Not wanting to make herself look weird in front of him.

She walked over to him a little closer. Deciding that it was now or never. "Flash...Do you think we can talk?"

Flash arched an eyebrow. Genuinely confused. "Talk?"

"Yeah talk..."

Flash blinked twice. Before scooting over. Inviting Sunflower to sit beside him. "Kay, sit down." She again, blushed. The polite gesture enough to do that to her. But she accepted. Further walking over to him and plopping down beside him. It was there he decided to start the conversation. "So...what do you want to talk about."

Sunflower hesitated a little. Her blush only grew. But, she remembered what her Aunt had said to her. How she needed to be honest with him before he left or else she'd probably be wallowing in her own curiosity and possible sadness. So she blurted it out. "Flash, would you ever consider dating me?"

Flash's eyes widened a little. His eyebrows raising. Letting those words sink in. "What?"

"Ah...Look. Just...would you ever date me?"

It hit him. Flash had finally noticed her flustered look. But, he felt like he'd seen her like this all throughout the day. "Is this what's been bothering you?"

Her eyes widened a little. "Whut?"

"Well...honestly you've seemed a little different today. A little more red and all that. I chose not to comment about it because, well that be a little rude but still."

That caught her by surprise. She didn't even think she was being that obvious. But then again, she wasn't one to hide things from other people. It was kind of in her code. "Well would you...?"

Flash sighed. Of course he liked Sunflower. But he liked her as a friend. That's kind of how he viewed most of the nice people he's met with so far. So this came the hard part. Rejection but in a polite way. Where both sides can be happy. This was where Flash was gonna really struggle. But he took his chances. "Sunflower...You know I like you as a friend right?" He smiled. "I think I want to keep it that way."

Sunflower though she frowned. She wasn't mad at Flash. But she saw how it was. "Oh..."

Flash's eyes widened. Hearing the sad tone in her voice. "Come on Sentry! Don't ruin this friendship!" He kept on speaking. Wanting to make her feel better and see her smile. "No, wait! Look...Sunflower trust me you're a beautiful person." He showed a little more affection. Placing his hand under her chin and lifting it up so they could have an eye to eye conversation. It was kind of a surprising gesture from Sunflower's point of view. But still, Flash kept going. "I know that any guy out there would be lucky to have you by their side, maybe even me. No definitely me if I felt the same way." His lips curved to form a smile. "Look, I wouldn't wanna ruin a relationship for you if I had just said yes out of pity. I'd want you to go out there and find the right person. One in which both of you share attraction." That made Sunflower actually smile. Not a flustered smile. But a genuine smile from Flash's kind words. "And look I'm flattered by your feelings. I really am. But I like us as friends. Do you get my drift."

She nodded earnestly. Responding with the same genuine niceness. "Yeah...ah guess ah do." The two both embraced each other with a platonic hug. Sunflower liked that. She wasn't flustered or anything anymore. Out of habit she kind of hugged tighter. And well, Flash didn't really mind at all. Letting her have the moment. "This...This is better!"


Flash was all set. His bag slinked over his weighted jacket. He stood at the entrance/exit of the town. Where he had first landed on. But now, it would also serve as the place where he would bid his Farewell.

He had even been given a few gifts from the people of Appleloosa. Some food for his journey, some clothes native to the area such as their ponchos which he wore over his jacket and bag. A red and blue one. Feeling as soft as a blanket.

The townspeople all stood behind Flash. As he was about to go off to his next destination.

The people that also stood around him. Braeburn, Sunflower, Uncle Orange, Aunt Orange and Babs all bid him one last farewell.

"Well son. It was one heck of a ride with ya." said Uncle Orange. "Ah hope you'll be able to find these Dragon Balls of your's."

Flash nodded earnestly to that. Before Aunt Orange spoke. "Will miss you Flash."

"Will we ever see you again?" Babs asked.

Again Flash nodded earnestly to both. Before reassuring. "Well I'll see you guys in Canterlot if you do ever decide to come around and visit. Speaking of which...I know you guys are most likely planning on it right now. And if you do. You need to promise to me that the Dragon Balls and my time here remains a secret. Alright?"

The four nodded. Before Sunflower spoke. "Hey Flash. You'll think about all of us when you're on your journey won't ya?"

Flash nodded before letting out a dorky answer. "Well after this whole experience I'm pretty sure I wont be forgetting Appleloosa and it's people for a while."

The five all briefly laughed. Before Flash said goodbye to Braeburn. "Well Buddy. Looks like this is it." He gave out his hand to shake. "Until next time, I hope!"

Braeburn grinned. "Of course." Grabbing Flash's hand. Doing one last hand shake with the Saiyan.

Before Flash ascended into the sky slowly. Taking a slowly ascension as he was giving Appleloosa one last look. Before Bidding the Townspeople one last farewell. Waiving. "Goodbye Everyone!"

They all responded. All waving and saying Goodbye. Watching the Saiyan fly away with his glowing blue aura surrounding him as he flew.

Flash smiled. Before Glancing away and looking forward. He held the Dragon Radar in his hand. Turning it on and heading towards the direction in which the Dragon Ball was located.

His Ki thrusting him forward as he headed north for the next Dragon Ball. "See ya around Appleloosa."

End of Case Study


A/N: Hey Look I'm doing another one of these.

So this is the End of Part 1. I wanted to end it off with a bang and a pretty good ending. That Being Flash and Sunflower centric. I was really close to shipping the two together but ultimately I decided not to.

Anyways. The Next Arc should be up soon. It's gonna be a little hard to pull of but I believe in myself on this.
