Tempest(Book 2): While You Were Away
Chapter Two: Bean-Stalker
When Korin awoke, he wondered what had happened. He went into the house, and checked to make sure nothing was stolen. 'Nothing missing here,' he thought, and looked out to his garden. He couldn't have been more shocked. The entire sensu bean stock was gone! The rest of the garden was trampled or burned to cinders. He felt sad at first, but realized it was a serious problem. His eyes burned with desperation, as he knew that he was helpless. 'Wait a minute,' he said to himself as he checked his small bags. Happily, he found that he had two full bags of sensu beans left, enough to start a new garden. Even so, he needed to find out who had taken the rest, because it could spell trouble for the planet if a battle arose. He left the tower and headed to Roshi's island.
The acolyte of Kame began his descent to Earth. His long golden hair flailed behind him as he flew. There was a gleam in his blue-green eyes as he journeyed to his home, which would welcome him with open arms. His name was Tomo Lorien, but Kame called him Tempest, and the name stuck. This nickname well represented both his powers and his mission. His clothing was almost identical to Goku's, but his robe was light blue with a white undershirt. He sensed some sadness in the air, and unknowingly headed in the direction of Master Roshi's island.

On the 26th floor of SunKoko Skyscraper, outside Southtown, a person in a deep blue ninja uniform entered the meeting room of Nalan, a collector of the rare and mystical. The ninja took off the dark mask, revealing a strong, black-haired woman, with green eyes that showed malice and spite. Her name was Soma, an assassin of which little was known. What Nalan knew, however, was she wasn't just a cold-blooded killer. She was also a thief and treasure hunter. Using both physical and energy attacks, she was a great ally to have.
"Have you completed your mission already? Excellent. Tell me, how many did you obtain?" Nalan's deep voice was very persuasive, and expected instant results.
"One hundred in all. I don't see, however, why some special bean can be so important." Her voice was also deep, but in some ways a little more tender than Nalan's.
"Because when used in battle, it can instantly recover lost energy, and don't question my intentions again! He sounded a little irritated. "You may go to your room now, or roam the city. Just make sure I know where you are so that I may contact you at any time."
Soma bowed, and left. Feeling a little tired, she went to her small room. Nalan look at the huge sack of sensu beans that the woman had delivered. 'They will all be used in due time,' he thought.

Korin opened the door to Master Roshi's house. The old martial artist was sitting at the table, eating some teriyaki chicken and fried rice. He looked surprised to see Korin. "Hey, Korin! How's it going? What can I do for you?"
"Things are not good. Someone has stolen my entire sensu bean crop, and gave me a good beating in the process! I need someone to help me get them back!"
Roshi put his chopsticks down, and shook his head. "Earth's Special Forces are depleted at the moment. Mind if we go outside to think this through?" Korin barely had a chance to nod, and Roshi was already out the door, and reclining on his special chair.
"Hmmm. Let's see. Yajirobe is still around, but he is a pathetic fighter. He can't even use energy attacks or fly! But who else is there?" Roshi frowned. Korin shook his head.
"Me, for one." Both of them were astonished as Tempest suddenly appeared in front of them, interrupting their meeting. "I am Kame's apprentice, Tempest. I control the elements." He gave them a demonstration. His took out his sword, Fairon, which had a green aura. He touched the water with it and a whirlpool formed. He made a ball of fire in his hand, and put it into the whirlpool. Amazingly, the fire was not put out by the water, but instead mixed with it, making a spinning fire and water combination. As soon as the sword was lifted, the water stopped spinning, and the fire caused the water to steam as it dissipated. "Allow me to protect the Earth while the others are gone."
Roshi and Korin looked at each other in awe. Roshi was the first to respond. "Impressive show you put on. What do you think, Korin?" Korin nodded. "Indeed. Besides, what have we got to lose?"
Korin told Tempest the whole story.
