Hi everyone! I'm sorry it took me forever to post up the next chapter! I've
been having a horrible Writer's Block lately. I hope this chapter is decent
enough. Truth be told, I don't like it too much. It's one of those boring
chapters where nothing happens.. But maybe you'll think different? I hope
you like it. ^_^
Chapter Six: The meeting of Radditz and Nappa
When they were walking back to Capsule Corp. together, Bulma held the Three star Dragonball triumphantly in her hand.
"I can't believe we actually have the first Dragonball already!" she said happily, tossing it up and down. When she was tossing it up a final time, Vegeta grabbed it instead and held it in his hand.
"I want it for safe keeping," he said. "And shouldn't we be looking for the next Dragonball?"
"Oh, come on,." Krillin said, waving his hand like it was nothing. ":We got three years and we already have one. Why stress ourselves?"
"Because the others might not be so easy to find!" Vegeta was bent down and his face was inches from Krillin, who was starting to nod in agreement.
Goku's tail swished around and he thought Vegeta was right. "Yeah, I mean, it took us a while to get the Dragonballs before, even if it was only about a year to find them. Maybe this trip will take three."
Bulma looked at everyone, and sighed, defeated. She really didn't want to go crazy about starting this, maybe relax in between, but she guessed that wouldn't happen with Vegeta around. He seemed too dedicated.
"I guess we've no choice but too look for them now," she replied to everyone, pulling the Radar out of her pocket once again. She clicked the button on the top, once, twice, there it was. There were two Dragonballs in her sight, together, but they were miles away.
"The next two Dragonballs are together," she announced. "And it looks like they're coming this way. Wait, that means they're moving!"
"Oh, yes"! Chi-Chi was jumping for joy. "That way we don't have to travel for the next ones, we just let them come to us instead!"
"No, we can't do that. What if it's something big? We're gonna have to stop it outside the city-"
No way!" Yamcha interrupted her, shaking his head. His face was already a pale white. "What if we can't defeat it?"
"So? But we have to stop it!"
Bulma grabbed Yamcha's wrist and started darting in the direction of the two flying Dragonballs, which was westwards of South City. Everyone followed, Vegeta and Goku quickly catching up while Chi-Chi and Krillin lagged a little behind.
It certainly wasn't easy getting to the outskirts of town. And they had to do it under a certain time limit too, because if they didn't whatever that had the Dragonballs could hit town! They went in the opposite direction of Capsule Corp. and took a short cut down and old alley. It led them to a crosswalk, where they had to wait to get across and from then on they used the Capsule Corp., vehicles Bulma had in her pocket (that she suddenly remembered she had).
When they reached the edge of town, all they could see ahead of them in the distance were mountains and a long strip of road going out as far as the eye could see. It was very barren.
"That was quite a run," Chi-Chi muttered as Goku helped her out of the car.
"I'll say," the tailed young boy agreed. "Man, what a rush! We're gonna have to try that again sometime!"
"I'm not up for that," Krillin said slowly, rubbing the top of his head. "That made me kinda dizzy. We're lucky the police didn't give us a speeding ticket."
"Shh!" Bulma whispered, turning to the others and putting a finger to her mouth and quieting everybody. Everyone went silent and she glanced down at her Radar once last time. "They should be here in about a minute or so. They're going pretty fast."
They all waited for the unknown object to come, and it was taking longer than a minute. But not much longer. Over the distance by the mountains they spotted two small dots with objects that flickered in the bright sun; the Dragonballs.
"Ha!" Vegeta scowled. "I don't know what they are, but they look way too puny to be any challenge. Bulma, I thought you said looking for the Dragonballs were hard?"
"They were," she muttered under her breath, clearly annoyed. He didn't seem to notice it.
"Well, it was probably hard because you didn't have me around. Oh well, you got lucky."
They all waited in a silence, as the two small creatures got closer and closer. It wasn't until they were about ten feet away that they noticed that they weren't creatures or monsters at all; they were people. One was huge was a small bald head and powerful looking muscles, while the other was much smaller with long black hair. The two males landed in front of the team. Each of them were gawking.
The one with the long hair looked at each of them, from Yamcha's pale and frightened face to Chi-Chi's shaking figure. His eyes flickered to Goku, eyeing up and down and looking at the fuzzy little tail swishing back and forth. He frowned.
"Kakkarot, what is your problem?" he said rudely. "You were supposed to have destroyed Earth by now."
"What are you talking about?" Goku shot back, not a single quaver in his voice. Then he noticed something about them and his eyes widened. "You guys have got tails too!"
The man rolled his eyes. "Yeah, all Saiyans do, remember? Honestly Kakkarot, you must have lost your memo-"
"Radditz!" The taller of the two interrupted. This time he was the one who sounded surprised. The man with black hair he called Radditz looked up at the burly man's face.
"What now?" he asked annoyed. "Look, we don't have time to talk to Kakkarot. If he wants to be an idiot, let him. We'll destroy him along with the planet once we get all the Dragonballs."
"It's not that! It's. It's him!"
"Him? Nappa, what are you talking about?"
The man Nappa, who also had a tail that was wrapped around his waist, lifted a finger and pointed to Vegeta. He was the only one other than Goku who didn't look scared. He looked at them with his fierce cold eyes, with his arms crossed and his tail tightly wrapped across his leg where it mostly stayed. He smiled with confidence when both shared the same frightened look.
"I can't believe it," Radditz muttered. "It's.." He shook his head. "He must have lost his memory too. I can see it somehow. Let's just go into this place and find the Dragonball."
"Y-Yeah," Nappa stuttered, taking off into the air. Radditz followed his lead, saying as he left, "We'll see you again, Kakkarot! And you as well, highness!"
After that the two blasted off into the city, high above the city so far they couldn't be seen by the group anymore. Yamcha was still spooked by two people flying and Bulma was hiding behind him, squeezing one of his hands. Chi-Chi was with Goku, but she wasn't too scared because she knew Goku was there to comfort her. Goku wasn't afraid, but he was surprised when Radditz called him Kakkarot and they called Vegeta 'his highness'.
"Vegeta?" he asked, getting the young man's attention. "Are you royalty or something?"
"Not that I know of," he muttered. Personally, he was still in a bit of shock himself of what the two flying men had called him. Then he smirked. "But I sure hope not. It would suck being the leader of a race of flying men with tails!"
"H-hey, he called y-you guys S-Saiyans," Krillin stuttered, utterly terrified. "Is that what you guys are?"
"I don't know."
"Well I say we should get away as soon as possible," Bulma suggested, coming out form her hiding place behind Yamcha. "Those two had Dragonballs, but I don't want to fight them. The next closest one is in Ginger Town. Besides, it looked like they were also searching for the Dragonballs, and they might take ours."
"Yeah," Chi-Chi replied. "It's a good things they didn't see ours. Let's hurry out to Ginger town before they find out we have it."
Everyone finally agreed even Vegeta, who was really determined at first to fight the mysterious visitors for answers and for the Dragonballs. But with a few arguments from Bulma, who was the only one brave enough to argue with him even after with threats with ki blasts, he backed down. Goku called the flying Nimbus that he and Chi-Chi decided to ride on, while Bulma rode with Vegeta (much to Yamcha's dislike) and Yamcha rode with Krillin on the Capsule Corp. Vehicles.
The vehicles were extremely fast and could easily catch up to the Nimbus, and on they drove on the ground, clods of dirt and smoke flying into the air behind them. While riding, Vegeta was the one driving the motorcycle- like vehicle and Bulma had her arms wrapped around his waist. They were quiet for a while, but then she started to notice his tail moving closer to her and wrapping around her waist.
"Vegeta," she said, coming as close as she could to his ear so she didn't have to yell.
"Yes?" he asked. She gulped down a bit of air and blushed. It was sort of embarrassing talking about something like this.
"Could you get your tail off form around my waist?"
"No." She was surprised.
"Why not?" she asked. He shrugged, revving up the motorcycle and making it go faster.
"It does whatever it wants most of the tie," he replied. Then he smirked. "I can't control what it does. Maybe it's afraid you'll fall off."
"I won't fall off!"
From then on there wasn't really any conversation between any of them, and they stopped when they came across a huge forest. The four got off their vehicles and put them back in their capsules (one capsule had the Dragonball stored inside). The forest looked extremely thick, and from above them Goku and Chi-Chi were coming from the Nimbus.
"Geez, that place is huge!" Goku exclaimed. "It looks pretty bad up top. Too bad you guys can't ride the Nimbus..."
"Yeah, too bad," Krillin sighed. "Bulma, is this the only way to get to Ginger Town?"
"Afraid so," Bulma replied, sighing. "The vehicles are almost out of fuel, and I didn't even think about putting in extras. We'll have to walk through here."
"We'll come with you," Chi-Chi said smiling. "We could ride Nimbus, but it wouldn't be very fair. Plus, we like being with you guys!"
"Well, let's go in."
Ugh, I feel like that chapter is awful! But maybe you'll like it!
DBZChicky501: Yup, it's always the teachers...Good thing Mr. Baker was a fan of Bulma's Father (actually, I have a teacher named Mr. Baker, but I don't know if he likes DBZ. Prolly not).
Junnanagou4ever: I'm glad you're enjoying it! BTW, I love T/P Fics too!
Mushi-azn: Hee hee, thanks for the great compliment! I'll try and keep it the best! ^_^
FayeBebop2021: Don't worry; torturing Yamcha is one of my favorite hobbies. Really nothing in this chapter, but you'll love one of the later chapters between Yamcha and Vegeta..*grins evilly*
Vegeta-is-Forgotten: I glad you like my fic! I'll keep at it, your words are inspirational!
So you guys, what do you think should happen in the forest? Maybe one of your ideas will give me a spark (NO Dragonballs, kay? (). I hope ya help me out some!
IMPORTANT: Well, not really. I'm just writing another story, Trunks and Pan Fic. It's got a huge amount of twists in it though, and trust me; it will be different from any other one you've seen! Plus, you get the main plot right away! Great, no? It's called 'Changing the Times'. Here's a tiny summary if you're interested:
It's starts off where Pan comes back from the future, right then and there. It'll be explained later on why she used the Dragonballs to secretly visit the alternate Timeline, but you'll easily understand a few things that happened during her time spending three years there within the first chapter. So when she gets back, they almost immediately get married and over six years have three kids, an older son, than two twin son and daughter. There's a lot of family in this one, like Goten and Marron are married with their own daughter and Vegeta (although he still trains nearly 24/7) has a soft spot for all four of his Grandkids! Plus, Mirai Trunks is married, and you'll never guess who until you read!
.Yah, that was a lame summary..._ Oh well, I hope you guys read it anyways!
