Chapter 8 Meeting the Council

"Ack, too many voices." said Krillin. The X men, who were quite used to hearing voices, merely shrugged, some wincing as the bruises that had yet to leave caused them pain from this gesture.
"Who's voice was that?" Gohan asked his father who said,
"I don't know, it seems familiar." said Goku as he thought then said, "No clue." causing everyone to fall over.
"That's because you haven't met me Goku, but you shall soon." said the voice, and then the airship was surrounded in a thick cloud of red smoke. Once the smoke cleared they found themselves in a large room filled with screens and projectors, where eight people sat around a large round table.
"This is getting really old." said Krillin as he looked around.
"Look at all this hi-tech surveillance equipment, with this I bet they could see what every single Namekian had for breakfast." said Bulma as she examined all of the equipment.
"This is the Watcher's headquarters." said/growled Wolverine as memories of his previous visit flooded his mind.
"Who's the watcher?" asked Jubilee as she looked around.
"I am." said one of the people sitting around the table, drawing all attention to the table.
"Kami?!" yelled all of the Z fighters in surprise as their eyes had wandered to all of the people sitting around the table, eying several empty chairs as well.
"It is good to see you my friends." said Kami
"Who are all these people, and what's going on?" said Goku as he finished eying all of the people around the table.
"We are the counsel of destiny." said the Watcher as he drew all attention back to himself. "And as for what's going on, if you will have a seat I will explain." said the Watcher as he waved his hand and several chairs appeared around the table.
As they sat down to listen Goku began to think about how hungry he was and food just appeared. Seeing this caused Vegeta, M. Trunks, and Gohan to think of how hungry they were, which caused food to appear in front of them too. They all begun to eat voraciously. The X men just looked on in awe.
"Unbelievable." said Jean Grey.
"I never get used to it." said Bulma.
"Do they even taste their food?" asked Jubilee.
"They apparently do, since Vegeta is pretty picky about what he eats." said Bulma.
"How do you ever cook enough food." asked Rogue.
"I'm not sure, it probably has something to do with my training with Octopus." said Chi Chi thoughtfully.
"Who?" asked Rogue.
"Long story." said Chi Chi.
"You'll have to tell me sometime." said Rogue. Just then the Saiyans finished their meal.
"Warriors with appetites to match their strength." said Odin with a chuckle as he looked at all the piles of dishes.
"Now that you've stuffed your faces, PERHAPS WE CAN GET ON WITH THE MEETING!!!" screeched Elder Kai causing several pairs of ears to bleed.
"Quiet old man, who are you to speak to a Saiyan like that?" said Vegeta.
"Show some respect!" said Elder Kai, and in a blink of an eye had Vegeta by the nose. All the new arrivals, the Z Senshi and the X men, were shocked, and were even more shocked when Vegeta could neither break away or generate enough energy to blast him, due to the fact that Elder Kai had put a damper on his energy. He then proceeded to smack Vegeta with his other hand screeching about disobedient, ignorant, disrespectful children.
To save Vegeta from any further humiliation, Chi Chi approached the disgruntled hollering Kai. "Honorable elder, please excuse the insolence of this ignorant Saiyan prince."
"Why should I?" asked Elder Kai.
"He is the mate of my friend and the father of my god child." said Chi Chi
"Very well, since you have shown me more respect than even your ancestor Anin." said Elder Kai. This remark earned expressions of shock from Chi Chi and Goku then a look of understanding crossed Goku's face as he said,
"No wonder she looks so much like Anin."
"Who's Anin?" asked Bulma.
"Anin is the guardian of the furnace that produces the heat for the fog that acts as a gateway between the human world and Other World." said Chi Chi.
"She is also the first of Chi Chi's ancestors to master the Pudao." said Ox King.
"You mean you knew all this?" asked Chi Chi.
"Not the part about guardian of the furnace but the part about her being your ancestor." said Ox King
"She certainly did master that Pudao too, she just about took my head off with it." said Goku.
"It is time to get on with the meeting now." said the Watcher
"Excuse me, can I know something first." said Bulma in a display of the curiosity that can only belong to a genius.
"What is it?" said the Watcher, somewhat irritated at the meeting being interrupted again.
"You said we would meet the one who brought us here and I was wondering which one of you it was." said Bulma
"That would be me." said Madam Web
"With my help" said the Beyonder.
"And who might the two of you be?" questioned Bulma.
'And where did you get such interesting clothes' thought Rogue as she looked them up and down.
"I am Madam Web." stated Madam Web.
"And I am known as the Beyonder." said the Beyonder "And to answer your question Rogue, I got these clothes from the sixties." said the Beyonder. Rogue merely nodded while muttering under her breath about mind reading Elvis clones.
"While this discussion about the fashions of Earth is very interesting, I think it is time to get to the task at hand." said Elder Kai
"I agree." stated the Watcher
"First there are things you must know." said Kaibitto
"We are now in the sixth age of life, which is the third age of man kind." ,said Elder Kai, "Each age of life lasts a certain length of time, the longest age being eight billion years."
"Which age was that?" questioned Bulma, not being one to miss out on learning something new.
"The one we are currently in." said Elder Kai "The previous ages of life have followed a pattern, they have lasted several million years and then something would happen to wipe out all life in the universe, save for our council who have the job of recording the acts of extinction, and it would remain that way until life begun again and followed the cycle."
"Wow, and so your saying we are in the sixth age of life?" asked Gohan
"Not you, my boy, your from the fifth age, or the second age of man." said Elder Kai.
"WHAT, DO YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT OUR WAY OF LIFE IS ALREADY OVER?!!!" yelled Vegeta
"Yes, but that won't happen until well after your lifetime Vegeta." said Kaibitto
"Excuse me, but are you saying that the Earth and the universe are quite old." said Professor X
"Older than you can imagine." stated Elder Kai
"Over the millennia there have been tyrants that have done damage to the universe and nearly ended ages of man unnaturally. Should that have been allowed to happen, man kind would not have come back, that is what happened with the first three ages of life." said Kaibitto.
"What ages were those?" asked Chi Chi
"The ages of the Dinosaurs, and Atlanteans, were the second and third, and the first was a civilization that was more advanced than the age Goku is from, however this age was so obliterated that even the Kais only have the records in the cave of time to go by." said the Watcher
"Why did man kind come back?" asked Bulma
"Because in the third age the council begun, and the council has ensured that they have never been entirely wiped out." said Madam Web
"How did you do that, if the tyrants were powerful enough to end these ages of life." asked Yajirobe
"Our council has the power to pass judgment on these tyrants and when the judgment is passed a warrior will be born who's destiny will be engineered so that they and the tyrant meet in battle and the warrior will win. The warrior is then fated to protect that age until they take their last breath." said Odin
"Is that what happened with Frieza?" questioned Vegeta
"Yes, and I think you should know, it is because of your father's actions that your race was spared from total extinction, yours and Goku's father's." said the Watcher
"What actions might those be?" asked Vegeta
"They both stood up to Frieza, and inspired all of the Saiyans to rise up against Frieza." said Thor
"So judgment was passed on Frieza and I was born?" asked Goku
"Yes, and soon more will be revealed." said Kami
"I have a question." said Lunch
"Yes." said the Watcher
"How can there be two Kamis?" asked Lunch
"What are you talking about?" said Kami
"Well, there's one of you right here and then there's another one right over there." she said, pointing to Piccolo. Everyone was shocked at this revelation.
"That is easily explainable." said the Watcher calmly "This Kami is from a different timeline." he finished
"I have a question, do all the timelines fit into one age." asked M. Trunks
"Yes, and for now there is only one timeline, but the machines created due to the appetites for conquest of several beings have warped the timelines and are causing them to merge." stated the Beyonder
"Who might these beings be?" asked Goku, hoping that they might offer him a good fight.
"You will know soon enough." said Kaibitto

BM: That's all for chapter eight folks

JJ: It seems that there is still a lot more explaining to do though

Kenshin: All will be explained in the next chapter, that it will

JJ: Or at least all the questions you have now

BM: I will try to have the X men talk more in the next chapter, some of the other characters too.

JJ: I thought that was a pretty cool chapter, and it answered some questions that had been nagging at the back of my mind.

Kenshin: There will be another surprise guest next time, that there will.

BM: Yes there will, so until next time, ciao
