Chapter 61
Genji prayers were soon answered.
An hour later, Kuririn and 18 arrived back on Summoner's to pick the kids up. They found Genji and Marron by the girl's favorite lake. 18 groaned, feeling the leftover resonance of Cell's ki vibrate from the water.
"I hate it when she comes here…"
"Hey kids!" Kuririn called to Genji and Marron. "Time to go home!"
**Finally…** Genji moaned. Marron grabbed Genji's hand and dragged him over to her parents.
"What about the groceries?" Marron asked her mom.
"We took care of it." 18 nodded, then she smirked. "So, did you and Genji have fun?"
Genji glared at 18.
**I can't you believe you left us here. I'm going to get you back someda…**
"We sure did!" Marron answered her mother. "Genji bought us ice cream, and we walked all around the island."
"Sounds like you had fun…" 18 chuckled.
"And you guys were okay the whole time?" Kuririn asked.
Genji nodded.
**We were fine. Nothing bad happened.**
"Good. Well, let's get going so that you can finish Master Roshi's training for the day."
Genji huffed.
**I dunno… What will I have to do next? Mop his floors?! Walk his dogs?! Clean his toilet?! I think I should stop while I have my pride in tact…**
"Hey, don't give up now." Kuririn urged. "You'd be amazed by what he could teach you."
Genji just kept his doubts to himself as they walked back to the hover car to head home.

On the opposite beach of Summoner's, triplet dragons were lying next to one another on the warm sand. Each was the size of a camping trailer, and big enough to swallow a human with two gulps. Their bellies were full and their muscles were tired from hunting a whale. The heat from the sun was making them sleepy. Plus, they had finished arguing about who was most attractive to females and all three were extremely grumpy. They were in absolutely no mood for any visitors.
However, someone was walking towards them, intending to be a visitor.
One of the dragons, the smartest of the three, caught the scent of the visitor and raised his head. The dragon growled.
"I hope you don't wanna talk to us." It growled. "Take your pictures and leave us alone, tourist."
"I am not a tourist, and I wish to talk." The man suggested. "I am someone who can be worth the while. And you three are the sons of the dragon StormGod?"
"We prefer to be called the StormGod brothers." The dragon answered.
The other two raised their heads up and looked at their brother.
"Hey, Don," one asked with a hiccup, "who's the human?"
"Shut up, Po!" Don snapped. "I'm shooing him away right now!"
"Hear me out!" the man shouted. The three dragons glowered at him.
"Say what you have to and go!" Don roared. "After our nap, we have females to woo. It is our mating season, you know."
"I am aware of that…" The man nodded.
"But we never get any of the girls." The unnamed dragon spoke. "We're disgraced because our parents were killed when the islands were destroyed and we never avenged them. It shouldn't matter, cause I'm so very handsome, and…"
"You and your big mouth, Sei!" Don screeched, jumping over Po and biting Sei's ear. "You didn't have to go and tell a human all that! Besides, females should be more attracted to me, since I am very wise!"
"We just had this argument…" Po groaned, covering his eyes with his claws in embarrassment. "I think brains and beauty are overrated. Girls go for fun guys like me…"
The three dragons began arguing heatedly until the human dropped his bombshell.
"I can get you mates!"
All three dragons bent their heads to him.
"How?!" they asked all at once.
"You can avenge your parents and be rid of your disgrace. Females will be begging you to mate with them."
"Yeah right." Don doubted. "How are we supposed to avenge ma and pa if their murderer has been dead for years?"
"And this murderer is Cell, yes?"
The three brothers nodded.
"Well, what if I said Cell is alive and here in dragon god territory?"
All three pairs of eyes stared silently at him, then Sei and Po burst out shouting.
"Where is he?!" Sei roared angrily. "I'll rip him to pieces! I want Pa back!"
"He's alive?!" Po roared in fear. "Are you sure?! After all these years?! Without anyone knowing?!"
"Why should we believe you?" Don asked over the commotion. "The last thing the StormGod brothers need is some human to ruin our reputation as the most feared dragons in these waters."
"He lives with the turtle hermit on the Kame Island. His appearance has changed, he looked like a young boy who goes by Genji DragonLore. Go see for yourself if you don't believe me."
"And what?" Po asked. "You'll give us girls if we kill him?"
"Bring him to me alive, and I can arrange a lovely dragoness for each of you."
The dragons looked at each other for a while, then they grinned in satisfaction.
"We'll do it." Don spoke for them. "When do you want him?"
"At your leisure." The human shrugged.
"We'll bring him to you tonight." Don agreed.
The human nodded.
Your fate is sealed now, boy.
I'll have you in my clutches…
…Just like I had your mother before she died…
