"Bring her in here." Gerald told Nappa who was carrying Mimi. Roger's father directed him to place her on the bed in their guest room.
Gerald took Mimi's hand and was close to tears.
"What is wrong?" Yambia said.
"Brain Tumor." Gerald stated plainly. "The Doctors diagnosed her a few months ago. She's only got a few more weeks to live."
"Stand away from her a bit sir." Yambia asked.
Gerald looked confused, he looked at her, and then Nappa, then back to her." "Why?" He finally said.
"I may be able to help her." Yambia smiled.
"Trust her." Nappa said.
"Ok, but if you hurt her I swear I'll…. " Gerald's threat was cut off as Yambia's body started to glow a Golden hue. That glow traveled down her arms into both of her hands. She then placed both her hands on Mimi's face. Mimi roused and softly moaned a little. Then the glow was gone and Mimi's eyes fluttered open.
"You… You healed me?" Mimi said.
"That tumor won't be bothering you anymore." Yambia said. "I couldn't very well let my mother-in-law die before I got to know her, could I?" Yambia smiled.
Mimi smiled back. "Thank you…. Daughter." Then the woman was out again, but this time it was a healthy sleep.
"You will probably want your physicians to check her out, but the tumor is gone." Yambia turned to her father-in-law. "Ok, I guess you have questions. Where do I start?"
"At the beginning." Gerald said. "Also, thank you for saving my wife, I had no idea what I was going to do without her."
"My pleasure sir." Yambia said.
"So, you are Roger's wife then?" Gerald said.
"Well, not according to Earth tradition and customs, but essentially yes." Yambia ventured.
Gerald blinked. "E-Earth traditions and customs? What does that mean?"
"Well sir. If you will allow me, I will tell you exactly what has happened between the time you last talked to your son, and now." Yambia said. "It will explain everything."
"Ok, but let's have some lunch and wait until Mimi wakes up. Otherwise you will have to tell the story all over again." Gerald said.
"Nappa, I think I'll be fine here now, if you wanted to go home. I know how bored you get." Yambia smiled.
"Yeah, no offense sir, but these sort of social gatherings is not my strong point. If you'll excuse me I'll go home." Nappa said.
"Of course sir. Let me show you to the door." Gerald said. Gerald and Nappa got to the front door and shook hands. "Nice to meet you sir." Nappa said. "And you too Mr. Nappa." Gerald said. Then they looked at each other for a few seconds.
"Where's your car?" Gerald said.
"Oh, well, umm… We didn't drive actually, we.. Well…." Nappa stammered out.
"You might as well show him Nappa, he's going to learn sooner or later any ways." Yambia said.
"Ok, if you say so." Nappa stepped away from the door a few yards, then said, "Bye." Then took off into the sky.
"Allllrighty then…" And it was almost Gerald's turn to faint.
"As you can see sir, I have a lot to tell you." Yambia smiled.
"That, my dear, has become more than apparent." Gerald suddenly looked at his daughter-in-law in a very manner which told Yambia that he was appraising her. "You're everything I would have imagined Roger being attracted to. Bold and strong, yet feminine and caring, you've shown great courage by coming here today. " Gerald continued his scrutiny, then he stopped, like it had just put two and two together. "So, when can I expect to become a grandfather?" He blurted out.
"You're a smart guy. Gerald, I see where Roger gets his brains from." Yambia smiled.
"Call me dad." Gerald said. "And don't tell Mimi that!! The continued harmony in this house is fully dependent on Mimi believing that she is the brains of this outfit!"
"I heard that!' Mimi said from the Guestroom. "She walked out and sat in the loveseat next to her husband, giving him a sharp look as she did."
"Alright daughter, I think you have a story to tell us, and I know from the images I picked up while you healed me that it's completely out of the ordinary. So, please begin."
"Ok Mimi, Well, I guess I had better start with telling you about the Saiyans, who we were, and who we are. It really all starts with an alien race called the Saiyans. These Saiyans were foolish enough to make a pact with an evil tyrant known as Frieza………
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Meanwhile, 78,000 years into the future…
"Push Gohan! You can do it!" Goten yelled.
Gohan was in his Super Saiyan Five form, which he had achieved 30,000 years ago and was desperately trying to push back the negative energy that Tao Kaioshin was closing in around him. With one great effort, Gohan pushes his power out and disperses the black.
Above this scene, and a bit to the west, as things are measured in Tao Kaioshin's world, Piccolo and Jessica were hard at work.
"Ok Jessica, extend your senses out. Can you feel everyone in this world?" Piccolo asked.
"Yes! I can Piccolo." Jessica said.
"Now push further out. Can you find Vegeta?" Piccolo asked.
Jessica's brow furrowed into concentration for just a few seconds. "Yes, there he is! He's sparing with Goku and Trunks Jr. He's happy because he is winning. But he's also worried about stuff. His mate, his children, he misses Trunks. He's also thinking about using the Garden with Bulma like Raditz did with my mom……. Oh my!!" Jessica exclaimed turning beet red.
"What is it Jessica?" Piccolo asked extending his own senses, and coming to his own conclusion.
"Umm.. Never mind reading their minds Jessica, just tell me if you find them, okay?" Piccolo said.
"It's ok Mr. Piccolo, I know about… things.. I just didn't expect.." Jessica trailed off.
"It's ok. Jessica." Piccolo said. " Just extend your senses again and see if you can find Goku."
"Yes, he's with Vegeta." Jessica said.
"Ok, here's a hard one, locate Kirillin." Piccolo said.
"Jessica strained a bit, then came back with the right answer." He's in the Room of Spirit and Time.
"You can sense him in there?" Piccolo asked a bit surprised.
"Yes, It takes a bit of effort, but I can sense him and Uub there." Jessica said.
"That's amazing! Even I can't sense anyone in the Room of Spirit and Time, I couldn't sense them anywhere else and just deduced where they were." Piccolo said.
"Ok, I think we've had enough for today. Go and hit the shower and get a nap if you're tired." Piccolo said.
"Mr. Piccolo sir?" Jessica said.
"Gohan told me that you trained him when he was even younger than I am now, is that correct?" Jessica asked.
"That is correct." Piccolo raised an eyebrow at the little girl.
"At what point in HIS training did you suggest that he hit the showers and take a nap?" Jessica asked.
"That was different, he…" Piccolo stammered.
"Why was it different?" Jessica looked at him with large brown eyes.
" * ….. Ok, point taken." Piccolo conceded.
Piccolo waved his hand over the little girl and her training clothes suddenly became very heavy.
"Tao Kaioshin, I need a running track." Piccolo said.
"Very well Piccolo." Tao Kaioshin waved a hand.
As soon as the track appeared Piccolo ordered Jessica to run as many laps as she could, with the weighted clothes. " If you get tired, start on some simple exercises like jumping jacks, sit ups, and the like. Make sure you stretch before you start, and after you finish. Understand?"
"Yes sir!!" Jessica said.
"Ok, Piccolo come here please. Roger, you too." Tao Kaioshin beckoned.
"Yes sir?" Both of them echoed.
"Are you guys both familiar with the fusion dance?" The Great Kai asked.
"Sure!" Roger answered enthusiastically.
"Yes but I.." Piccolo was not so enthusiastic when it came to doing what he considered a silly looking and undignified technique.
"You may not need to, but it's always good to keep all your options open. Let's see you do it." Tao Kaioshin said.
Piccolo couldn't argue with the logic.
"Fuuuuuuussion…. Ha!" A blinking light washed over everyone present and when the light died away there stood Rogicolo.
Rogicolo was an impressive, formidable looking figure. His skin was still green, but without the brown patches at the muscles. He had an ebony flow of hair that fell to just past shoulder length, with two green antennae jutting out on top. His face was mostly that of Piccolo's, with Roger's piercing ebony eyes. Since Roger hadn't shaved in a few days, Rogicolo sported a modest growth of beard. Rogicolo rubbed his face, it was the first time Piccolo had ever experienced facial hair, or hair of any kind for that matter. Rogicolo also sported a long, fur covered tail.
"Whoa! What power!" Rogicolo said. Rogicolo found that he had full Super Saiyan and Mystic abilities, the combined wisdom and battle savvy of Rogalle, Kami, and Piccolo, the fighting spirit and heart of Roger, Piccolo, and Rogalle.. To top it off, all of the powers of Super Saiyan Four., and a bit beyond.
"I think he's about equal with you Trunks!" Goten exclaimed.
"Hmmm…. I wonder…. " Tao Kaioshin was lost in thought.
"What?" Goten asked.
"Well, what would happen if Gotenks and Rogicolo fused?" Tao Kaioshin asked.
"Wha? No way that I even want to try that!" Trunks stammered.
"Okay, Okay, Think about it as a last resort measure then." Tao Kaioshin winked.
"Ok, Goten, Trunks, you guys see what Rogicollo has before his fusion wears off.
"You got it Ultimate Kai!" Goten said and launched an attack. Goten launched a KaMeHaMeHa Straight at Rogicolo's face and Trunks phased in behind him to kick him into the beam. However when Trunks got close, a green hand reached out faster than lightening, closed around Trunk's ankle, and swung him into the beam. It was now an apologetic Goten and crispy Trunks that faced Rogicolo now.
"Foolish.. Did you really expect to beat me in your normal state?" Rogicolo smiled.
Trunks smirked. "Not at all. But we thought we could catch you by surprise."
"Well, you both have got to go to at least Super Saiyan Four to stand a chance against me!' Rogicolo said. "C'mon, give me your best shot!!"
"You got it" Goten said as both he and Trunks powered up to Super Saiyan Four. Goten and Trunks launched a massive martial arts attack. So many techniques were thrown that Gohan himself had a hard time keeping track of things. But Rogicolo blocked them all with seeming ease.
Goten and Trunks was surprised. "We can't seem to lay a glove on this guy!" Goten said.
"Okay then, plan Delta 4!" Trunks yell out as he flew straight up above Rogicolo. Rogicolo still had not moved from his spot.
"Gocha!" Goten yelled back as he flew straight down below Rogicolo.
"Kaaaa Meeee Haaa Meeee… "Goten powered up.
"Fiiinalll Flaash!" Trunks fired his signature attack.
"Haaaaa!" Goten also let his fly.
The two massive energy beams hit Rogicolo head on where he floated above Tao Kaioshin's world. The entire planet shook; trees and large chunks of earth and rock flew up into the tumult. Then, and explosion of cataclysmic proportions obscured the noonday sun.
"Umm… I hope we didn't over do that Trunks." Goten asked concerned.
"You're right, I don't feel Rogicolo's ki anymore." Trunks said. "Wait, the smoke is clearing. Someone is in there!"
Rogicolo was standing in the center of a round blue force field, completely unscathed. Then Rogicolo disappeared completely.
"What? Why can't I feel his ki?" Trunks stammered looking around frantically for the Green Super Saiyan/Namekian.
"I don't know, but I.. OOF!!!" Goten grunted as he was suddenly slapped from the sky and into the ground. A split second later, and Trunks joined him in his dirt bath.
"How can this be? We're both Super Saiyan Fours and he's making chumps out of us!!" Trunks complained.
"Well, there's always the next step." Goten smiled.
"Yeah, let's see how he handles a couple of Super Saiyan Fives." Trunks agreed.
But as the duo started powering up, suddenly Rogicolo was right in their face punching and kicking. "As long as I can keep them at Super Saiyan Four, I can beat them." Rogicolo thought as he performed a spinning reverse swing kick to the side of Goten's head, which knocked him unconscious. Goten slumped to the ground and reverted to his normal form.
"That's one!" Rogicolo thought just before getting hit in the stomach. All of his air whoshed out of him.
Rogicolo barely recovered when he noticed that Trunks had not finished powering up to Super Saiyan Five yet.
"Special Beam Cannon!!!" Rogicolo yelled and fired straight at Trunk's head.
A very surprised Trunks attempted to get out of the way by dropping down and was met with Rogicolo's foot to the stomach, followed by a haymaker to the right temple. Trunks dropped like a sack of potatoes to the ground, unconscious.
"Very good Rogicolo!" The Ultimate Kai applauded then stretched out his left hand and healed Goten and Trunks.
The boys came to and looked around bleary eyed. "You! We would have won if we could have gotten to Super Saiyan Five!" Trunks exclaimed, not happy with losing.
"Of course! That's why I attacked to keep you from powering up!!" Rogicolo said. "I knew I couldn't beat you at the next level."
"Great, that was a really good test of your abilities Rogicolo." The Ultimate Kai smiled and tapped Rogicolo on the head.
Rogicolo became Roger and Piccolo once again.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Nappa was flying back towards West City and Capsule Corporation at a rather leisurely pace. He seldom took the time to notice things like scenery before, but this planet, Earth or the legendary Saiya, or whatever its name, was strikingly beautiful. Nappa decided not to go straight home, he wanted to see some of the countryside, and he wasn't scheduled for anymore training until morning anyways. Nappa passed over a very large waterfall that seemed somehow familiar to him. Nappa dropped down and looked around unable to shake the intense feeling of dejavue he felt, but knowing that he had never been here before.
"What is it about this place?" Nappa wondered.
Then it hit him all at once. "That Namek's ki is fused with everything here. It's in the rocks, and trees, and even the water. He must have spent a lot of time here when he was alive. I wonder if he misses this place?" Nappa looked around and felt Piccolo's ki strongest from a rock about the size of a man's fist located behind the falls. Piccolo meditated directly in front of this rock for years and years and as a result, the rock became like a ki battery, storing Piccolo's ki. It was almost like coming home and smelling father's scent all through the house, but his training room was the center of his father's world. It smelled bad, but it was comforting all that the same time. That is, until the day that his father failed to return from a mission. Nappa was 10 at the time and was forced to join the Elite guard to support his family. Childhood, or what little childhood a Saiyan child gets, was officially over.
Nappa lifted off into the air and continued his sight seeing. Nappa's curiosity was stirred to know how the humans lived since the Ultimate Kai told them that Humans and Saiyans were the same people. It seemed so unlikely to him, but the few humans he's run across since returning from heaven have been strong of spirit, determined, and very Saiyan like. Not to mention that the humans are the only species that has ever been discovered that is genetically compatible with Saiyans. That fact alone saved the Saiyans from eventual extinction. Nappa sighted a medium size town of around 20,000 people and decided to mingle with the natives and see what he could learn. He spotted and unoccupied alleyway and landed behind a dumpster to avoid being seen flying. Nappa inspected his clothes and straightened himself up a bit, then walked out into the street. The street was some sort of blackened substance that felt sort of rubbery under Nappa's feet, with hover cars busily transporting people to school, and work, and church, and friends and families homes, and shopping, and any number of other things Nappa was curious about. The streets were vibrant, people in bright clothing, buildings painted or sided in bright colors, and the smell of food was everywhere. Nappa's stomach growled like a panther in a trap.
Nappa set off in search of a likely place to eat.
Nappa came across what appeared to be a mall; similar to the one that Bura had taken them on their shopping trip, but smaller, maybe only half the size. Nappa knew that such places had restaurants. "Ok, that looks like a really good place." Nappa thought as he entered 'Fanny's House of Steak' and looked around. Within a minute, a young, cute girl caught Nappa's attention. "D-Do you wish to be seated?" The girl was obviously intimidated by Nappa's size and the ever-present aura of being a bit dangerous that Nappa expelled.
Nappa smiled widely which put the girl at ease somewhat. "Sure missy, give me a good seat. Not too close to the kitchen or bathrooms. Understand?"
"Of course sir, this way." The waitress said. "My name is Mary, I'll be your waitress for today."
"Ok Mary thanks." Nappa said as he was seated in a booth with a window overlooking the Northwest end of town. "Nice view from here." Nappa thought. "Say Mary, what is the name of this town?"
Mary looked at him like he was a bit dense. "Adamsville, didn't you notice all the signs?"
Now that she mentioned it, Nappa had read the numerous business signs. "Adamsville Hardware, Adamsville Five & Dime, Adamsville Veterinary Clinic, and just never made the mental connection.. "Oh, yeah, right.. I feel like such a boob!" Nappa lamented.
"Hehehehe.. It's okay, perhaps you were just busy looking and thinking about other things." Mary chuckled.
"Yeah, I was looking at a bunch of stuff." Nappa said still a bit red in the face.
"Well Mr. Nappa, I will go and let you look over the menu for a few minutes then." Mary offered.
"Ok, thanks." Nappa agreed as he vaguely wondered how Yambia was getting along.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"…and that's pretty much the whole story right up until my arrival here. " Yambia concluded.
Roger's parents were completely slack jawed. The story was so very fantastic But they had witnessed her power to heal, and the big guy flew as if he was born to do it.
"T-This is a lot for us to take in." Gerald said as he looked Yambia straight in the eyes. Gerald has always considered himself an excellent judge of character. Gerald looked in her eyes unflinchingly, trying to find some sign of deceit, but his gaze was met with clear and equally unflinching eyes with no sign of deceit in them. Something passed between Roger's father and this strange woman of another world and people, something real and tangible, an understanding.
"I believe you're telling the truth." Gerald finally said. "Although I'm still having problems wrapping my mind around it."
Yambia looked relived. "Thank you sir."
Mimi was well aware of her husbands ability to judge character and also looked relieved. It wasn't just anyone that could earn her husbands trust that fast.
"So our son is the reincarnation of a great warrior." Gerald shook his head. "I always knew that there was something extra-special about the boy.. I just had something different in mind when I told him that he could make anything he wanted out of himself. I meant a Doctor, or Engineer, or even (small cringes) a Lawyer, but a Saiyan Super Hero saving the universe from destruction? Well, let's just say we never saw
that one coming!" Gerald exclaimed.
"Well Gerald, I think that's something we need to take up with Roger when we see him next. He's obviously chosen this girl as his wife, or mate, or whatever you want to call it, and I for one think it was a good choice. And besides, we're going to be Grandparents!!" Mimi said with all the strength and conviction of Chi-Chi when Gohan and Videl first started dating.
"I'm happy for that." Gerald said. "But you have to promise me that Roger will finish his education."
"No problem at all. We've become good friends with Trunks Briefs. He's promised us places at Capsule Corporation both for jobs and a place to stay for as long as we need it." Yambia smiled. Yambia had purposefully left the fact that some of the strongest people on Earth were also some of the most powerful, business wise, in the world. She wasn't sure how Roger's parents would react and didn't want to risk them running to the press with all of this.
"THE TRUNKS BRIEFS? PRESIDENT OF CAPSULE CORPORATION!!" Gerald and Mimi exclaimed at the same time.
"Yes.. Do you know him then?" Yambia asked nonchalantly.
"Everyone know him! Look!" Memi said and pulled out a back issue of People Magazine where Trunks was on the front cover.
"And look here!" Gerald did the same thing with a back issue of Fortune 500.
"This guy is one of the most powerful men on the planet!" Gerald said.
"In more ways than one." Yambia thought.
"Yeah, that's Roger's boss, he works directly under him." Yambia said.
Fact was, Trunks had visited his office long enough to add all the Z-Warrior's to Capsule Corporations payroll as "Security Forces Employees". They each had begun receiving regular paychecks with the exception of Kirillin who ordered his money sent to 18, and Piccolo who ordered his money given to Chi-Chi to do with as she saw fit. Piccolo had never had much use for money, or material possessions anyways. His only nutritional need was water, and he manufactured his own clothes rather well. Roger ordered his to be directly deposited into his bank account. Trunks had also issued each and every one of them a Capsule Corporation Master Card for "business expenses" he called it and winked. The bi-monthly stipend was generous to say the least.
Mimi spoke up adamantly, "Listen young lady, you should come and live here. At least until you've had the baby. How far along are you now?"
"About two weeks." Yambia said. "As gracious as your offer is, I can't come here to live, at least not yet. I would very much like to take you up on your offer when I get close to the time."
Mimi thought about this, "Well, alright, but you must promise to visit at least once a week until then, got it?"
"Yes Ma'am." Yambia said. "Saiyan gestation, as I understand it, is several months shorter than Human gestation."
Over the last 5,000,000 years, there has been certain genetic mutations where a warrior race is concerned. One of those was the shortening of the gestation period to help ensure more rapid repopulation of a powerful, war-like race.
"The baby will be due in about six months as opposed to 8 ½. " Yambia said.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Nappa had finally got enough to eat in the forth restaurant he visited. Nappa didn't want to draw any undue attention to himself, so instead of ordering enough to feed a Saiyan at one restaurant, he ordered enough to feed a large human at four different restaurants, until he had a Saiyan sized meal, or at least, pretty close to it. Nappa then walked straight up main street and eventually came to a residential district on the west end of town. It was then that Nappa smelled the smoke.
Nappa looked around to see what was burning and noticed columns of smoke coming from about three streets ahead. Nappa looked around and with a little bit of super speed came to halt in front of a three story school building whose first floor was totally engulfed in flames, and the second floor wasn't far behind. Nappa also saw several school children on the third floor desperately hitting the windows.
Nappa still wasn't sure about the whole hero thing yet. Sure, he wasn't actively murdering people anymore, but what business of his would it be if the humans died? Why should I save them? The school grounds was alive with humans. Adults trying to organize the kids that escaped. He heard one older man with a crew cut talking to another man. "Damned this old building! The alarms didn't even sound! The sprinkler system didn't work! This school should have been replaced years ago!! This baka city council has disapproved every measure we've introduced to fix the problems or replace the building! Now those children are going to die!" The man was in tears now. A grown man was crying like a baby.
The fire and police finally arrived, but they too seemed woefully under equipped to handle the job. They didn't even have a ladder truck. They seemed to suffer the same lack of support and funding as the school.
"Those kids are doomed." Nappa thought. "But I'm no Great Saiyaman."
Much of the lower floors was gone now, and had started to collapse on the east end. The kids, and a couple of adults it seemed, were steadily moving away from the worst of it, but it would soon engulf the entire school.
"Why should I save them?" Nappa thought one more time.
"Because it's the right thing to do Nappa!" Vegeta's voice broke into his head.
"The right thing to do?" Nappa thought.
"Hurry Nappa, save those kids! You don't have much time! They are OUR future now!" Vegeta pleaded.
"He's right!" Nappa thought and ran towards the police barricade like an unstoppable force.
"Wait mister! You can't go in…." The fire chief said as Nappa jumped clear over their heads and past the barricade. "Hey you!! Come back here! You're going to get yourself killed! Holy shit! Did you see that? That huge guy just jumped over 10 meters into the air!!"
But Nappa wasn't listening. He ran like a man possessed, silently cursing himself for being such a fool and hoping he wasn't already too late.
Nappa crashed through the front door of Adamsville Jr. High School and tried to climb the stairs towards the second, and then third floors. Nappa surrounded himself in a body level ki shield to keep out the flames and heat. The stairs crumbled under his feet so he flew up the two stories and headed to where he last saw the children's faces.
Mrs. Brumbose and Mr. Collins had already consigned themselves to dying today. The flames were almost upon them and the six children in their care. Two of the children had already passed out due to smoke inhalation, and the rest weren't far behind. The third story windows had been bolted shut years ago by the order of the city council to save money on heat and air conditioning. By the time the teachers tried to break them, they were too weak to do it. The old building was burning fast, Mrs. Brumbose was already feeling her hair burn, her skin get dry and tight. It wouldn't be long now. Mr. Collins thoughts were preoccupied with the irony of being so close to retirement.
"Hello?? Where is everyone?" A deep rugged voice called to then through the flames.
"We're here!" Mrs. Brumbose managed through cracked lips. "Over here please!!"
Suddenly a man, an unimaginably huge man, strode through the flames. He seemed to shimmer and glow slightly in the flames.
"Is everyone alright here?" Nappa asked.
"No, the children are in bad shape." Mr. Collins said.
"Alright everyone, gather as close to me as you can." Nappa picked up the four conscious children and hoisted them up on his shoulders. He then expanded his ki shield so that everyone was within it. Everyone gasped as suddenly the heat was being blocked from their bodies, and the air seemed to be far less smoke filled. The two teachers picked up the unconscious children and they held on to Nappa's shoulders as well. Nappa walked back to where the collapsed staircase once stood and said. "Ok everyone, we are all getting out of here, hang on." And he jumped the distance from the third floor. Naturally, Nappa used his ki to gently land everyone safely. Nappa then started walking towards the ruined entryway. The two teachers were astounded to be walking right through Hell itself, without a scratched. Just before reaching the front entrance, a huge steel girder fell from the ceiling, it was glowing red hot.
"Laser Eyes!" The big man yelled, then the girder was glowing yellow, the blue, then white, then it was gone completely.
Then, miraculously, they were out! The big man brought them out somehow. Out to their town, to their loved ones, to their lives! Out from a flaming death!
Nappa carried all the children over to the paramedic truck that had just arrived from the next town. Paramedics had been yet another thing this city council would have to answer for on the next election-day. Nappa deposited the children where the paramedics directed him to.
Mr. Collins and Mrs. Brumbrose started coughing and had to be given oxygen, as was all the other children.
"Look mister, I don't know what kind of miracle you just pulled off, but it looks like all of these people are going to live. Good job!" One of the paramedics said.
"It was the right thing to do." Nappa said and simply walked back into town, into the alley he arrived in, and took off towards home.
Someday, sometime, in any one of a billion possible futures, Mary the waitress finds the name of the greatest hero to ever grace Adamsville on a Credit Card receipt. It was signed simply. "Nappa". The Statue that now adorns the newly rebuild Nappaville Jr. High School is of a large imposing man with no hair and a crooked smirky sort of smile, wearing a rather strange fur belt. The new school, an ultra-modern and well maintained facility bears the name of the one that saved their children.
That was all accomplished after the city council was run out of town on a rail, and good people elected into their positions.
Yes, the new Nappaville City Council has done a wonderful job. And Fanny's is still there amid the Nappaville Veterinary Clinic, Nappaville Hardware, and the Nappaville Five & Dime. And Mary is still there, happily recounting the day she met the town's savior.
