It had been four months, four long months since the incident. Krillin could now walk and move freely, only limited by needing to walk with a crutch to support his broken leg but Korrin claimed he could have a sensu bean for him in no time. Krillin limped across the small island the Kame house rested upon, pain shooting up through his leg with every step. Words flowed through his mind, words he had heard in the darkness. He remembered his own pact, he would find a way to be stronger, and he thought he had a idea. He had not spoken to Goku or Gohan since that say in the hospital. They never visited, assuming Krillin was still to mad at Gohan for losing control. Krillin was no longer mad, but was still driven by his goal. He thought back to the days where he and Goku were boys, and Krillin had a fighting chance to win. Now, Goku, Vegeta, or most anybody could take Krillin down with a swipe of their hands. Krillin now avoided battle whenever possible but still cant believe he was persuaded by Gohan. He put such thoughts out of his head and continued to limp to the door of the Kame house.

"Ooh! Krillin let me help you!" came a familiar voice as Master Roshi trotted from the house to Krillin's side. He tried to put Krillin's arm on his shoulder but he pulled away and nearly fell.

"No! Don't touch me! I'm not a weakling!"

"I never said you were boy!" Roshi said.

"Well, I can make it to the house myself, thank you very much."

"Well, your a grouch. You better get in a better mood though. Bulma is coming here soon, its her turn with the dragonballs, Goku brought the last one here hours ago." Krillin's ears perked up, he smiled.

"Really? Okay, ill be in a better mood by then, I swear." Roshi nodded at this comment and ran back into the house. Krillin began to change course, walking around the back of the house, not really in control of his actions, his emotions gaining control. He could see it...the sealed case. All seven were inside and Krillin could sense his wish, the balls beckoning to him. It was almost irresistible. "NO!" he yelled at himself. "Its not fair, its Bulmas turn. I may be desperate but I'm still a nice guy." He fought the urge and turned around, beginning to walk away.

Suddenly there was a blur and the sudden rush of wind knocked Krillin over, unbelievable pain running through his body. He grabbed his leg and cringed, trying not to scream. He looked up to his own shock and saw Vegeta standing a few feet away from him.

"Well, well, well. If it isn't chrome dome! Feeling better from you whomping from a little child? Hahahahaha! You humans are pathetic, barley able to defend yourselves!" Krillin clenched his fist, pushing himself up on his feet, ignoring the pain as much as possible.

"Shut your Sayjin mouth Vegeta! Your nothing but a jerk!" He withheld his anger as much as possible but found the recurring urge to attack nearly overwhelming.

"OOH! Strong words from a small man, literally. Hahahahaha! You want a piece of me q-ball?" Vegeta clenched his fist and smiled. Krillin shook his head no, he knew better than to challenge him. Krillin picked up his crutches and began to limp away, sweat beading on his bald head. "Too bad. Its so hard to find a decent fight these days. Not that I would ever consider YOU decent! Your nothing but a weak and pathetic human. Nothing compared to the power of a Super Sayjin!!" Krillin lost it, with a loud and bellowing war scream he dropped his crutch and leaped for Vegeta.

"Bastard!" He screamed as he set fourth with a fury of punches Vegeta dodged easily. Krillin flew back and charged a ki energy blast, throwing it at Vegeta. He easily deflected it out to sea.

"This has grown boring." Vegeta said as Krillin flew foreword, charging in another attack. Krillin brought back his fists but felt the ground rush up to great him as a chopping punch hit his back and his whole body was wracked with pain.

"AHHHHH!!" Krillin screamed, barley able to think straight as his body was filled with scrapes and cuts.

"Serves you right for even thinking you were better than me. Good- bye weakling." Unable to move, unable to think Krillin lay there for a moment. Vegeta began to walk away from him.

"I....W.....become.....mo..." mumbled Krillin. Vegeta heard this and turned back.

"What was that?!"

"I SAID I WOULD BECOME MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU!!!!" He screamed, finding energy he didn't have and pushing himself to his feet.

"Sure...dream all you want." Vegeta said, his patronizing attitude showing through in spades. Vegeta took of at high speeds from the Kame house, soon he was only a speck in the distance. Krillin was not sure of what to think. Suddenly he couldn't control his body and he found himself walking to the box.

"Screw Bulma! This is more important!" He yelled, blasting open the lid of the box. He stared at them. They were magnificent. Now matter how many times he saw them they never ceased to instill him with a sense of awe. He carefully got each one out and laid them in a row. He looked around, this would surly cause attention but hopefully it could be done before anyone took notice. He raised his hands over his head and concentrated, formulating the words in him mind.

"NOW RISE ETERNAL DRAGON TO GRANT MY WISH!" There was a thundering boom and the skies went dark.

Master Roshi was sitting in the Kame house, watching a soap opera and eating a burrito. He chewed thoroughly as the hot and steamy beans went down his throat.

"Mmmmm...microwaveable food! I wonder if Krillin wants one." He got up, but as he did he felt burrito's revenge and ran at max. speed to the bathroom.

"Oog...that's not good." He said, pulling down his pants and sitting on the can. He picked up a magazine and began to read, but was distracted by a loud yell he heard outside the window, muffled by the glass. Suddenly, Roshi was nearly thrown from the toilet as the ground rocked and a thunderous boom was heard in the sky. Roshi did not know what was going on. There was a flash and a roar as the window pane was filled with light.

"Oh no! Krillin!" Roshi yelled, pulling up his pants and making his way to the door.

***

"WHAT IS YOU WISH?!?!?!?!" The booming voice of the eternal dragon yelled. Krillin shivered in fear and felt overly intimidated beyond thought.

"Um...um...well..." he stuttered.

"YOU TRY MY PATIENCE!!!" he screamed, obviously annoyed with Krillin's hesitation.

"Yes! I wish to be the strongest a human can ever be! Stronger than a SUPER SAYJIN!!!" The dragons red eyes glowed, and Krillin felt a invigorating sensation flow through his body. He felt godlike as power surged in and out through his body. He yelled aloud with joy as he felt himself changing. His body shifted and suddenly Krillin was struck with pain.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHAAHAHAHAAAAHHH!" He screamed as he felt his body changing drastically, suddenly there was a burst of power and for Krillin, everything went blurry and he felt his body move without him. . ***

Roshi ran to the other side of the house, the sky was beginning to clear and the Eternal Dragon had disappeared. All he saw was seven beams of light fly in every direction.

"My god Krillin, what have you done?" he said, running around to the other side of the house. He was suddenly blinded by a flash of light and only saw a large power fly at incredible speeds in one direction, he disappeared instantly. Roshi looked down and saw only a tattered leg cast and a pair of crutches lying on the ground.

"Krillin?!"

Vegeta slammed his fist into the cliff face, it crumbled under the pressure. Vegeta smiled, knowing he was truly powerful. He sat down and pulled out a bottle of water from his backpack. Goku and Gohan would be there soon for a training session, he was just confident he was punctual. He waited there in silence for a moment. Suddenly something clicked and he drastically turn his head south, a great power was headed his way.

"No...No way! Goku is not THAT powerful?! What is this?!" he yelled in panic as the power drew closer ever quicker. Vegeta got to his feet, prepared to see what this was. Suddenly there was a flash, a blur, and Vegeta felt a unbelievable blow struck across his face. He flew backwards, slamming into the rock face. "Unnngh..." he moaned, not expecting the attack. He screamed aloud as he felt equally powerful blows rapidly slamming into the stomach, his eyes bulged as he could not react. His vision was blurry and bloody, all he could see was a tall figure, intimidating at the least. "W...why?" he mumbled.

"Ill show you who who is pathetic Vegeta!" he saw the figures hand raise up and a large flash and his body was wracked with heat and pain.

***

Goku and Gohan flew together, speeding to get to a pre-decided training spar with Vegeta. They dodged in and out, flying figure eight's and having fun as father and son.

Suddenly they both halted, and turned their heads sharply in the direction they were heading.

"My goodness! What's that daddy. Its cant be Vegeta!"

"No son, your right. There are two powers, one is enormous...and one is fading!" Goku powered himself up and took off, Gohan right behind him.

"What is it daddy?!" Gohan pleaded for a answer.

"I don't know, but its powerful. We need to help Vegeta!"

"I don't like this one bit. I have a feeling this is not going to be our day." Gohan had no idea how right he was.
