SlamDragon : A Slam Dunk/Dragon Ball Z Crossover
Summary:
While training for the Tenkaichi Boudukai, Gohan, Goten, Trunks and Piccolo were transported to the Slam Dunk universe by a strange black cat. They found themselves in Shohoku High School with the Basketball Team, Aota Tatsuhiko of the Judo Team and the Sakuragi Guntai. It seems that Trunks, Goten and the Sakuragi Guntai had gotten into some sort of trouble...

"Run!!!!" the boy with the moustache yelled. He was followed by three other teenaged boys in similar school uniform, and two little boys in an orange and black gi, respectively. The group stampeded straight into the basketball court, followed by the bewildered Sakuragi, Haruko, Aota, Gohan and Piccolo. It had not escaped Gohan's and Piccolo's attention that Trunks and Goten were with the group of boys, and had somehow gotten themselves into trouble.
The confused group tumbled inside, panting. The last of them, a fat boy with glasses, closed the door behind them while the rest sighed and tried to catch their breath.
"What the hell is going on?" The figure who asked the question towered above everybody, except for Piccolo. "Gorira!*" The Sakuragi Guntai exclaimed, and all five (including Sakuragi) were silenced with a bump on the head, courtesy of Takenori Akagi, captain of the Shohoku High School Basketball Team, and elder brother of Akagi Haruko. Aota only snorted upon seeing his rival who was once his best friend. Haruko merely said "Onii-chan," while the four universe-displaced people just looked bewildered. Behind Akagi, the rest of the Shohoku High School Basketball Team stopped their training and watched the scene. Rukawa muttered "Stupid red-haired ape," which didn't escape Sakuragi's ears. "What did you say, stupid fox?" he demanded, and received another blow on the head from Akagi.
"Now, Haruko, what is the meaning of all this?" He turned to his sister. "And who are these strange-looking people?" he pointed at Gohan, Trunks, Goten and Piccolo. Gohan at the moment was too happy to be reunited with his little brother and Trunks to give any notice to the chaotic situation around him.
"Onii-chan," Haruko said. "This is Son Gohan," she introduced Gohan. "I was walking to school just now and a speeding car had lost control and nearly hit me. Luckily Gohan-san saved me from being run over by the car." She smiled at him gratefully, then continued. "And this is Piccolo," she indicated the green alien. "We were talking outside when Youhei and etc. (much to the displeasure of Noma, Ookutsu and Takamiya), and also these two little boys ran towards us and asked us to run too. I have no idea why," she finished, turning to Youhei for an explaination.
"It's like this,! Youhei started, and told the others what had happened at Danny's and why they were running like mad to the basketball court.
Next:
Basketball training starts! And our DBZ heroes learn a new sport. (Oh, and just what did happen at Danny's?)
Introducing the Sakuragi Guntai:
The Sakuragi Guntai consists of Sakuragi (our hero, the one with the red hair), Youhei (Sakuragi's best friend and the most handsome of the bunch), Noma (the one with the moustache), Ookutsu (the tall yellow-haired one) and Takamiya (the fat one with glasses). The latter 3, being the more minor characters, were once referred to as 'Etc.' in the manga (of course, they were unhappy about that, but it was funny! And they played an important role in the story where Mitsui returned to the team). The Sakuragi Guntai were very supportive of Hanamichi when he started playing basketball, and they attended all (I think, I sort of remembered them going to play Pachinko during one of Shohoku's matches.) his major tournaments.
Guntai - troops, army.
* Japanese pronounciation ^_^ And yes, Akagi does look like a gorilla, unlike his sister Haruko who is very sweet-looking.
ff.net sidenote - To Michiru-chan, thanks for pointing out about Sakuragi's first slam dunk. I checked for the manga summaries on the internet. It seems that the Kainan game was where Sakuragi started showing off his remarkable rebounding skills rather than his slam dunking skills, so I've changed the 'first slam dunk' part in the previous installment.
The next installment will be a tough one to write - actually describing a basketball game ...and I just don't do sports :p So if you happen to be basketball fan as well, please do point out any errors in my writing. I would really appreciate it.
