Chapter five; A Legend Worth Hearing

After dropping off Vegeta and Bulma, Chi-Chi told Goku she was going for a walk, and ended up in one of the gardens that surrounded the palace.

She looked up at the sky and sighed, she wanted nothing more then to get revenge on Shannon for hurting her best friend. But Chi-Chi was no fool. She knew perfectly well that she was no match for the Sayian. Or any Sayian for that matter. She may have been the strongest human woman on the planet, but against a power as great as the one that flowed through all Sayian's veins she was a weakling.

"It's not fair! If I was a Sayian I could take her out!" Chi-Chi yelled to the sky, causing several birds to abandon their nests.

"You could be you know." Came a voice from behind her.

Chi-Chi turned around to see an old human woman in robes of blue behind her. "Who are you?!" she demanded.

"Does it really matter?" the woman asked.

Chi-Chi thought about it and decided, "No I guess not."

The woman nodded, "Good."

"You said I could become a Sayian, how?"

There was a glimmer in the old woman's eyes, "I know a legend you may be interested in." she paused, for dramatic emphases no doubt, before continuing, "A old traveler once told me the story of a young man who made his dreams come true using seven magical balls."

Chi-Chi looked skeptical, "Seven balls?"

The woman nodded, "Yes. He called upon Shenlong the eternal dragon and the dragon granted him his heart's desire."

Chi-Chi's eyes went wide, "You can't be serious! That's not possible!"

"Oh but it is! I have one of them right here." The woman reached into her robes and pulled out a sphere about the size of Chi-Chi's fist. The sphere was golden in colour and had four orange stars in the center.

"It's…it's beautiful." She gasped.

"Take it, that girl you brought in, she's a Briefs isn't she?"

Chi-Chi nodded.

"Go to her house and ask for the dragon radar. That will lead you to the other six." The woman said as she placed the first dragon ball into Chi-Chi's hands, "Good luck child." And with that the old woman vanished into a puff of smoke.

Chi-Chi stared at the place where she had been for several long moments before flying off the Bulma's house.

"The dragon radar? What on earth do you want with that? It hasn't been used in years! It's a piece of junk." Said Bulma's father, who had been informed of his daughter's present condition. Not wanting to oppose the king, he had agreed to allow her to stay at the palace until she recovered.

"Just something. Please sir! I'll return it after wards! I swear!" Chi-Chi pleaded.

The older man nodded once and disappeared into the basement. He emerged several minutes latter with a circular piece of technology. He handed it to her, "I have no idea how this thing works, so have fun!" with that he closed the door and Chi-Chi flew back to the palace to drag Goku on her quest with her.

Bulma blinked several times and tried to sit up only to encounter a wave of dizziness. "Where am I?" she asked weakly as she looked around.

"You are in the palace." Came a small voice from beside her.

She turned her head to see a little floating blue cat, "Who are you?"

The little cat smiled, "I'm Puar!" it responded happily, "I'm Lord Yamcha's companion." It said as it filled a glass of water, "Here you go!" it said as it handed the glass to Bulma.

She nodded her thanks and sat up enough to drink it. She felt like crap…

"If I'm in the palace, where's Vegeta?"

"Oh! The Prince?" Bulma nodded and Puar continued, "He's in his room recovering. He took a nasty hit!"

Bulma sighed as she remembered; he had saved her life... That was something she never would have thought him capable of doing.

She thanked Puar and the little cat left.

Bulma found a housecoat lying on a table beside her bed and threw it on. She decided that if she was about to go looking for Vegeta through the palace, it would look a little better then the bandages she wore now. With a small grin she opened her door.

She looked outside of her room, there was a human male standing down the hall talking to Puar. 'That must be that Yamcha guy she was talking about!' she thought to herself.

The young man turned to look in her direction when he heard the door open, "You should be resting." He said as he approached her.

Bulma shook him off, "I'm fine. Sayians heal faster then humans." She said as she flicked her tail trying to prove her point.

Yamcha smiled his black eyes lighting up, "Well Sayian or no, if Prince Vegeta is still resting, so will you." He said as he placed a hand on her shoulder and turned her back to her room.

Bulma had to admit he was good looking… the black hair that hung down his back… the lose gi he wore… he looked like one of the bandits she had read about in several trashy novels.

Yamcha lead her back to her bed and sat her down, "Now stay here and rest. You're going to need your strength. Prince Vegeta has been calling for you since he woke up."

Bulma's eyes widened, "Then let me go see him!" she exclaimed.

Yamcha shook his head, "You can't until you're better." He stood up, "Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go. I shall see you when I return!" he said as he left her alone.

Bulma was about to go after him when she heard a loud buzzing noise and everything went black.
