"Hey, squirt."
"Dad!" Goten turned to see his father ,Goku, standing in the doorway. The young saiyan jumped to his feet and ran into his father's arms.
Chi Chi appeared in the room from the kitchen. Goku stood to face her, "Chi Chi, it's great to see you. I have to go take care of some serious business in the South," He lowered his voice so that Goten couldn't hear, "Then I'm going to take care of you."
Chi Chi only smiled and turned back to walk into the kitchen. 'I guess I better use the big bag of rice'.

In a great flash of light Android 18, her husband, Krillen; materialized in midair about six feet of the ground. They found themselves in, what seemed to them to be a mad, crazy world vastly different from their own. It was a massive cobbled ancient city surrounded by lush rainforrest. Dark red brick and tan stoned made up all of the hundreds of thousand stepped pyramids and ampitheathre temples.
18 landed on her feet but Krillen fell on top of her, hitting with maxium force. She collasped under the sudden blow. Krillen had absolutley no time to react before swarms of natives surrounded them.
No questions were asked. The giant matte-skinned natives quickly fired their weapons, mainly large stone staffs, from the waist.
Krillen managed to protect the fallen 18 with his body. The blast shredded and burned his flesh.
Very little time passed before tien fell through empty space in midair. Ready for battle, Tien called "Solar Flare!" in his loudest voice.
The natives grunted and cursed in thier native tongue as they had to double over and shield their eyes.
Tien didn't miss a beat. The three eyed hero landed on his feet and realizing they were out numbered by the thousands began another special technique. "Tri-fold magic prism!" He screamed.
Instantly, the there warriors were rendered invisible.
18 now was able to stand and scooped up Krillen, who looked more dead than alive.
"Is he..?" Tien asked.
"No...not yet. I really doubt you can maintain this little light bending trick of yours, so lets find a way out of here."
Tien looked through the triangular field that shielded himself, 18 and Krillen at the masses of stony giant just starting to recover from the flash. "Yeah, we better go."
Neither Tien nor 18 noticed the diamond anomally materilize above their head's, fixed in place, as they stealthy ran away in to the dense rainforrest. They could only hope Vegeta had been as lucky as they were.
* * * *
On the tiny Central American Island where Vegeta intially discovered the diamond anomally, Gohan and Videl stood as if they were stranded. "So now what, studboy?"
Gohan scratched his head,"Well... Mexico is just right over there." He pointed across the warm gulf waters.
* * * *
Tien lead them through the woods, with the badly wounded Krillen in 18's arms, limp and nearly dead. Deeming it finally safe now that they were clear of the city, Tien stopped the outward flow of his energy that rendered these three invisible. This was one of many new skills Tien had mastered, meditating in those snowy mountains he called home.
"Maybe we should put him down for a awhile and rest."
"I'm not tired." 18 replied mechanically.
"We need to figure out where we are going and I think it would be better for Krillen, he's not looking so well." Tien insisted they stop. Soon they were under a beautiful tree with many blossoms and a thick winding trunk.
"Dad, where did Yamcha go?" Bulma asked.
"Uh....I don't know. Look at this now. It appears the anomaly has disappeared." The Professor sat in front of several advanced looking monitors.
Yamcha and his changeling friend sat in the tavern around the corner. "Gwar, have I lost my touch with the ladies." He had been slurring his words for the last thirty minutes. Yamcha belched and slammed his glass on the bar. Unfortunately, he forgot his strength and the bar split in two and a crack when deep through the marble floor. After that the two drinking buddies staggered back to Bulma's.
18 saw it fit to take a nap while Krillen lay near death, under the tree. She figured he wasn't waking up anytime soon. He had a deep wedge chuck of flesh missing from his side. Any other human have died instantly, she knew.
Tien scouted ahead unrelentingly trying to make sense of the situation. This forrest seemed to glimmer, he could sense the raw lifeforce of this place. Even back in the city, through it seemed to be heavily populated, the technology appeared crude and their was a mystical vibe to the entire landscape. How foreign this place felt to Tien.
Unbeknownst to either Android 18 or the triclops, Tien, the damaged Krillen began to be enveloped by the earth. Mystic tree roots began to wind up around Krillen and pulled him into the soil. Within seconds he was completely under ground directly under the strange enchanted tree with its white blossoms glimmering in the younger warm sun.

Pikkon awoke to Vegeta's face snarling at him. They were both in a dark sub-terrainian dungeon, chained to red stone walls. Their cloths had been taken and they both hung by their wristed, one saiyan prince and one green fighter from the West Quadrant.
"So tell me, freakshow, who are you and what do you have to do with this..." Vegeta screamed, his voice full of rage.
Pikkon thought to himself, Uhhgh this isn't even my part of the universe. "You must be somehow connected to Goku, right. The diamond was a temporal influx, a passage to another point in time. The Grand Kai sent me to take care of it. I am Pikkon."
"Gok.....Kakkarott, I should have known this had something to do with that clown!" Vegeta tugged at his chains. "Ok...so tell me, Pikkon how is it that the people here in this time are so powerful."
"It's complicated... the laws of physics have changed over eons. This time we find ourselves is further back in Earths history than what a mortals mind can concieve." Pikkon explained, he continued "If we are here long enough we should begin to adjust. Your power that you demonstated, although limited should grow from the experience."There was a mocking tone in Pikkons voice. "If you survive."
Vegeta just began to laugh, this Pikkon had barely felt an inkling of the Prince's true power. If this green freak knew Kakkarot from the afterlife he too may have hidden depths.
Just then, Pikkon noticed a prick in his wrist, blood trickled down his wrist, down his arm, chest , down around the back of his naked thigh, off his ankle and it a drain in the red stone floor.
Something similar was happening to Vegeta. Two warriors both with crimson red blood.

Next time on Dragon Ball Z, Goku! Where are you! What does Vegeta have up his sleeve this time. When will Pikkon put his cloths back on? Stayed tuned for the next exciting episode of ...
