Chapter 21: Search For the Rainbow Shell
The time portal that had opened up inside Ozzie's fort did not transport Goku and the others to Lavos. In fact, the time portal had transported them to another part of the Middle Ages. " Why are we still in the Middle Ages?" Goku asked. " I think its because we didn't finish our mission here." Trunks answered. " I want to know something. You saiyans are suppose to be the greatest fighters in the universe. Then how could the greatest fighters in the universe be beaten by three pathetic Mystics?" Magus asked. Vegeta grew angry at Magus for what he had said. " I've had it up to here with you, wizard! Don't tell me what real power is!" Vegeta yelled. Vegeta tried to attack Magus, but Trunks stopped him. " Remember dad, we're a team now." Trunks told him.
" Exactly, what happened to you guys?" Goku asked. " Well dad, we were on our way to find that rainbow shell Gasper was talking about. We went inside some strange looking cave. Then we were arrived by some strange creatures. For some reason our attempts did not work on them. That's when Ozzie, Flea, and Slash came." Gohan explained. " And we all know what happened next." Goku responded. " So, how are we suppose to find this rainbow shell?" Gohan asked. Frog noticed a nearby town. " Perhaps someone might know in that town." Frog told everyone. Everyone headed for the small town hoping that someone might know where the location of the rainbow shell.
They decided to ask in a cafe. Partly because everyone was starving and partly because a cafe in the Middle Ages is the best place to gather information besides Guardia castle. The cafe was as busy as usual. Some people were busy eating, others were playing cards, and some were even sleeping. No one noticed that there were strange visitors entering the cafe. " I don't believe it. It's the legendary hero!" a small child yelled as Frog walked in. Suddenly everyone stopped what they were doing. Not because of Frog, it was something else. The owner of the cafe was in complete shock. " I...I don't believe it... it's Magus." the owner said in fear.
Everyone started to panic, until a strange man with explorer clothes challenged Magus." You dare to show your face here. You murderer!" the man said. " Show him who's boss Toma." the owner said. However Magus was not impressed at his challenge. " Are you looking for an early death with?" Magus asked. Magus created a fireball and threw it at Toma. Suddenly, a splash of water had extinguished the flame. " Do not take your anger out on these innocent people." Frog told Magus. " How can you defend these weak humans?" Magus asked. " Because Frog has something you'll never have. A good heart!" Gohan yelled. Everyone was silent for a moment until Goku asked, " Does anyone know where we can find a rainbow shell?" Toma suddenly smiled," I know where that is. It's on a really small island southeast from here."
Goku and the others started to leave when the owner stooped them. " I wouldn't go there now if I were you. There have been many rumors going around that say at night there are very powerful creatures which cannot be defeated easily. Not even Magus or the legendary hero will be able to beat them." the owner explained. " So, what are we suppose to do?" Trunks asked. " Why don't you stay here for the night. We have plenty of food and a resting place. Don't worry about the bill. Everything is for free." the owner said. " Thank you." Frog replied.
After a few hours everything in the cafe was back to normal. Well except for the food. " This food is really great." Goku said stuffing his face with food. Frog and Magus watched as Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, and Trunks were eating the whole entire stock of food in the cafe. " What are we going to do now? All the food is gone." Toma asked. " Don't worry about that, I have a secret stash of food in the back for tomorrow morning." the owner said. " This food was really delicious. Thank you very muck." Gohan said as he went to bed. " No problem." the owner said as he saw all the empty plates.
That night while everyone was asleep. "... You'll never have. A good heart!" Magus remembered what Gohan had told him. " I don't have a good heart. That's impossible. These humans will never understand my life." Magus said to himself. As Magus was thinking he was holding his amulet remembering his sister. " Schala, I wish you were here. I need you." he said and went to sleep.
The next day, " We hope you liked your stay here." the owner said. " Yeah. Thanks for the food." Goku said and left the cafe with the others. " Come on let's go get the rainbow shell." Gohan said. Goku transported everyone to the island where the rainbow shell was being kept with his instant transmission technique.
They walked into the cave and noticed something very peculiar. " I don't understand why is there a prehistoric castle in this cave." Magus thought. Suddenly everyone heard something. " I think someone's in trouble." Gohan said and ran towards the direction of the voice. " Gohan! Come back!" Goku yelled. " We must help him." Frog told everyone. Everyone followed Gohan and were about to get the shock of their lives.
" That's impossible dinosaurs don't exist in the Middle Ages!" Trunks exclaimed. Everyone was face to face with a tyrannosaurs rex. It was the same dinosaur that Ayla, Krillin, and Android 18 faced in the year 65,000,000 BC. Gohan was helping a young woman with blonde hair stand up. " Are you all right?" Gohan asked. " Yes I'm fine." the woman answered. Magus stared at the woman as if she were a ghost. " Are you okay, Magus?" Goku asked. Magus did not respond to Goku. " It can't be possible. After all my years of searching, I've finally found you, Schala." Magus said to himself and ran towards the woman.
"Schala. I can't believe it. Is it really you?" Magus asked. " What are you talking about? My name is not Schala, it's Fiona." the woman told him. Magus suddenly realized that the woman was not his sister. Magus apologized to Fiona. " Magus! Look out!" Gohan yelled. His warning came too late. Unlike the dinosaur in the year 65,000,000 BC, this dinosaur had a tongue that was able to stretch itself and was covered in poisonous venom. The tyrannosaurs rex had wrapped Magus in it's tongue. " Put him down!" Gohan yelled. Gohan was about to use his kamehameha attack when, " Don't use any energy attacks. It might cause us more harm than good!" Goku yelled.
" We have to do something. That dinosaur is going to eat Magus alive." Fiona said. Goku scratched his head and had an idea. " Hey Trunks do you think you'll be able to slice the dinosaur's tongue with your sword?" Goku asked. Trunks nodded and flew up to the dinosaur. " I shall keep the beast busy." Frog said. Frog hopped over to the dinosaur as a distraction. " Try picking on someone with a sword." Frog said. The tyrannosaurus rex let out a giant roar. That was the time for Trunks to strike. He unsheathed his sword and sliced the dinosaur's tongue. That set Magus free, causing him to fall to the ground.
" All right now!" Give it all you've got!" Goku yelled. Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan blasted the dinosaur with their energy attacks. " We did it." Gohan said. Everyone ran over to see if Magus was okay. " Can you heal him Frog?" Goku asked. Frog shook his head. " 'Tis difficult to heal him." he responded. "What about the senzu beans?" Trunks asked. " We don't have any left." Gohan said. " Excuse me, but what's that shiny light?" Fiona asked. There was a bright shell glowing in the distance. " That's the rainbow shell." Goku said. The rainbow shell was a beautiful sight. It was very large, but had all the colors of the rainbow. " I shall take the rainbow shell to the king." Frog said and left.
" How are we going to help Magus?" Gohan thought. Fiona suddenly realized something. " We have to help him fast." she said. " Why?" Gohan asked. Goku had realized why. " He can barely breathe. The dinosaur's tongue was really poisonous." Goku said. Vegeta did not care at all. " We have no time for this. If Magus dies we can revive him with dragon balls." Vegeta said. " Father, how can you be so self-centered. He suffered so much throughout his life. And your just going to let him die." Trunks responded. Vegeta did not respond after that. Fiona had an idea. " You can leave Magus at my house. I'll take care of him." Fiona suggested.
Everyone headed out of the cave and headed to Fiona's house. Her house was a few miles away from the cave. " It's right over there." Fiona said pointing to the small house in the desert. When everyone landed on the ground, " Why is there a desert Gohan asked. Fiona got a little upset when Gohan asked that question. " This desert was actually a forest. It was destroyed during the war with the Mystics. Suddenly everyone saw a familiar face with Frog. " Toma, what are you doing here?" Fiona asked. " I heard you retrieved the rainbow shell from the cave. I also heard what happened to Magus. That wizard deserves to die after what he's done to us." Toma said as he was looking at Magus' body motionless on the ground. " Goku, can you bring Magus into the house?" Fiona asked. Goku nodded and carefully brought Magus in.
Magus was safely resting in bed, while Fiona was taking care of him. " There might be a way to save him." Toma said. " How?" Frog asked. " Too bad this forest was burnt down during the war. These trees used to have berries that was used for healing medicine." Toma said. " I have a dream to replant this forest back to normal, but I don't think it will help your friend in time." Fiona said. Suddenly, there was a flash of light coming from outside.
Everyone ran outside to see what it was. It was a time portal. "We have to leave and continue our journey." Goku said. " Take care of Magus." Gohan responded. Then, Trunks suddenly realized who can help Fiona replant the forest. " Maybe Robo can lend a hand and help you replant the forest much faster." Trunks said. " So, I guess we're going to the future." Goku said. " Please hurry. I don't think your friend can survive much longer." Fiona said as she watched Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Trunks, and Frog step into the time portal.
The time portal that had opened up inside Ozzie's fort did not transport Goku and the others to Lavos. In fact, the time portal had transported them to another part of the Middle Ages.
