Semadd giggled to himself as he put the finishing touches on the last of the tubes. He flipped a switch on his computer and a display came up on the screen. It was separated into four parts by two blood-red lines and the bios and pictures of four people destined to live out the rest of their lives in Semadd's lab.
"Gohan," he said, listing the first on the display for what had to be the hundredth time today, "and Goten, sons of the late Goku, hm, a pity that. He was powerful. The past World Martial Arts Tournament Champion." His eyes took on a glazed look as he gazed beyond the lab and beyond time and space. He shook himself out of his daydreaming and looked at the two people below those he had just listed. "Vegeta," he continued as if he never stopped, "And his son Trunks. They should provide everything I need. A pity that Trunks and Goten are so young, they may not last long." He sighed, "But Vegeta and Gohan alone should provide me with sufficient energy." His insane laughter cracked through the air of his lab, "You will soon be mine! I shall harness your amazing energy and use it to control the world!" he giggled and patted the tube standing nearest to him affectionately, "And you will help me do that wont you?" he told the clear tube.
The thing was a little over a yard in diameter and six feet tall. It almost looked like a battery the way it was connected by a black cylinder that extended the rest of the way to the ceiling. A platform about a foot wider than the tube itself raised it above the floor and acted as an insulation incase the power inside became too great for the circuits to handle. It was a precaution that Semadd doubted was needed. These where to be the living quarters of the four people he had listed. They stood in the four corners of the room, not touching the walls. The clear tubes where made from an unbreakable material that Semadd had invented as the first step in his conquering of the world. He giggled again. And people thought he was insane! He threw up his head and laughed as he exited the room through its one visible door. The screen still displayed the people and their information still scrolled downwards in a repeating flow of glowing words. Two words often flashed on all four of the boxes at different times. Mostly on Vegeta and Trunks'—Capsule Corp.
