Dragonball Destiny (Season 1)

Episode 06: 17's Request

Flare sighed and spoke up. "I hope I'm not being any trouble." he said.

"Oh no, it's fine, really." Bulma said. "Vegeta's always like that, it takes getting use to, believe me, I married the guy." Bulma went back to her duties at the diner and started preparing for the opening. An employee came up to her and motioned for her to follow him. She went into the workshop and shut the door.

"That looked a little odd." Trunks said. Goten nodded.

"Let's go check it out." Goten said. Trunks and Goten went up to the door and peeked through the glass. "Hey, look!"

* Inside the Workshop *

"Okay let me explain. I need you to increase my power and boost my performance. I had an encounter with one of those Elementals. He was really powerful, but I managed to fight him off a little, he seemed weakened. So can you do that?"

"How would I though?" Bulma asked.

"Well you're the scientist here. Not me."

"Alright, come back a little later, I should have thought of something by then." Bulma started walking towards the door. Trunks and Goten teleported quickly into the diner and sat down at a table. Flare just simply leaned against the wall near the exit. Bulma came out of the Workshop followed by Android 17. 17 eyed Flare suspisciously as he headed for the exit and as he left.

Flare headed for the diner to see what Trunks and Goten were doing. They were slurping up a couple of shakes and eating some fries. Flare came over and sat down, he whispered to them: "That man said he fought Cascade."

"What!" Trunks yelled out loud. Bulma jumped a little. Trunks was covering his mouth, then he lowered his voice to a whisper. "I thought you killed him." Flare shook his head.

"Just weakened him." Flare said. "The only way he can be destroyed is to consume him with fire, like he does to you guys with the water. I know that move, but I haven't mastered it very well."

"Well it worked well when you did it to us." Trunks said, pushing his hair back.

"You guys weren't fast enough, if he sees it coming, he'll run." Flare replied.

"What do you think 17 wanted?" Goten asked.

"You guys couldn't here. I was back about ten feet and I could here them." Flare said.

"How? The door was sealed shut, completely sound proof." Trunks said.

"Wherever there is a flame, I can hear, If I choose." Flare said.

Two hours later, 17 returned and went into the workshop where Bulma was busy tinkering with a large machine she had built. "Is this it?" 17 asked. Bulma nodded and removed the screwdriver from her mouth.

"I used the blue prints from your sleeping chamber when Dr. Gero first activated you. I just switched it around so when you sleep in it, your performance and power is increased." Bulma said.

"Good. When will it be finished." 17 said.

"Shortly, uh, about half an hour. Come back then." Bulma replied.

"How much will it increase my power?" 17 asked.

"Depends on how long you stay in it, the max you can stay in it is three days. That should make you 265% stronger."

"Then that's what I'll do." he said and walked out.

"Sheesh, he's just like Vegeta. Stubborn and power hungry."

Sorry these are getting shorter but I've been busy with other things, well that's it for now, don't miss the next episode of Dragonball Destiny!
