The Ties That Bind Us: Chapter Six

Something peculiar happened that morning. It was perfectly explainable, but at the time it seemed totally uncanny and just plain out weird. In unison, all the saiyans currently inhabiting earth stopped what they were doing, and looked up, past actions forgotten. The thing was, all the saiyans weren't in the same place. Pan and Trunks were sitting in his room, trying to figure out a good time to tell heir parents that they had consequently bonded from their previous actions. Goten and Bra were cuddled up in a secluded part of the Capsule Corporation, their limbs entwined as they both reveled in each other's company. Gohan was with Videl, at their home. Vegeta was training outside in the gravity room.

Pan suddenly stopped in the middle of her sentence, blinking at Trunks who also had a rather dumbfounded look pasted across him.

"I'm assuming you just felt that...that ki surge..." Pan stuttered. Trunks just nodded.
"How did it...where did it come from...how can it be so huge! It feels nothing like a saiyan, so it can't be dad..." The two just looked puzzled, and hopped up, peeking out of Trunk's doorway just in time to see Bra and Goten fly hand in hand inside the upper story window, looking just as puzzled. Trunks gave Goten a knowing look.
"You felt that?"
"Yup...but what in hell could it be?" Goten grasped Bra by the hand a little tighter and she squeezed it reassuringly. Bra allowed her eyes to travel down to Pan, who was clutching to Trunks. She split into a grin and raised her nose, sniffing the air slightly.
"Pan...why is it that I can smell your scent all over my brother.. And yours all over him?" Pan flushed a deep crimson, quickly followed by Trunks.
"Bra, I'll tell you about it later. But right now, I wanna know where that gigantic ki blast came from and who made it."

Their conversation was quickly interrupted by a shout from below.
"Brats! Get down here NOW!" All four swallowed in hesitation before plonking downstairs, one behind the other. They were met by a pacing Vegeta, and a slightly nervous Bulma chewing her nails in a chair. He looked up sharply, following each with his eyes.
"You all felt that, correct?" Silently, all of them nodded.
"So did I." Gohan suddenly entered through the open doorway, Videl and Chi Chi in tow. Pan grinned a little weakly at her father and mother.
"Hey Mom, Dad..." Gohan held out a finger to Pan, looking a little...mad.
"Not NOW young lady. We will discuss this LATER." Vegeta quirked a brow, knowing all too well what Gohan was talking about, as the younger saiyan shot Trunks a sharp glare. Trunks gulped, as Pan shrank back against him.
"Yes Daddy..." Gohan strode forward to stand in the center of the cluster. Vegeta went back to his little talk.
"As I was saying...The ki signature came from something called a Corwolt."
"What the hell is a Corwalt?" Bra looked up.

Vegeta rolled his eyes.
"If you let me FINISH, I'd be able to tell you wouldn't I? The Corwolts were an alien species that were once allied with the Saiyans. They're actually much like a human, exceptwith a hint of Cell in them. They have the same type of head that Cell had, and they have a tail rather like him, except without the spike. Dr Gero must have known about them and based his model of Cell around them. We taught them everything you could need to know about Ki's and fighting. They were currently at war with their archenemies, the Machelikans, when my great great great grandfather broke the treaty with the Corwolts, and allowed them to perish at the hands of the Machelikans. Only one survived and swore revenge on the Saiyans and Machelikans for the death of his race. Obviously, that day has come. The ki blast came from somewhere in the Quadrata Constellation, which is where Machelika used to lie. Emphasis on USED to. The Machelikans are gone. I can't feel a single ki signature left from any one of them. And as far as I can tell, the last Corwolt is on his way here. He's traveling at great speed, and should be here by the end of the week. It seems as if he has locked onto our saiyan signatures." Vegeta scowled, stopping his pacing to face the dumbstruck hybrids.
"This means he will try to destroy us."

At once, a sort of panic broke out. Videl, Bulma and Chi Chi started jabbering at high speed in stricken tones. Pan and Trunks spoke in hushed whispers between each other, as did Bra and Goten. Gohan just looked passively on, before growling.
"Be QUIET!" A silence fell over the room before Gohan spoke again.
"As far as I can tell, this 'Corwolt' is very. Very. Powerful. I think..."He sighed and glanced out the window.
"I think it's time we brought Dad back." Pan squealed in excitement, rushing to her father.
"Thank you daddy!!" She raised her hand.
"I volunteer to go search for the dragon balls!" Trunks stepped forward, clutching Pan's arm.
"I'm going with you." Gohan just nodded, and his eyes traveled to Bulma.
"Still got the second Dragon Radar stashed away?" She nodded, gleam falling over optics.
"Sure do Gohan. It's down in the lab. I'll just go get it." Bulma bounced away down the stairs, returning quickly with the item in question. Vegeta crossed his arms.
"The rest of you brats will begin heavy training with me this afternoon. Got it?" The rest of the saiyans nodded, before dispersing off. Videl and Chi Chi tugged Bulma away to have a gossip session, the females locking themselves away. Goten and Bra dove upstairs to prepare for the harsh activities to come. Gohan and Vegeta had already dissolved into the gravity room, which left just Pan and Trunks. Pan grinned and flicked on the Dragon Radar, which immediately started blinking.
"Ready for another Dragonball search, Trunkie Boy?" Trunks snorted and took flight, zipping out the window.
"A word of advice Panny Girl...get a better nickname for me" The two chuckled and disappeared from view into the low-lying fluffy clouds. By the end of the day, all 7 balls had been collected and dragged home by a very weary Pan and Trunks.

The eternal dragon was ready to be summoned.
