Dragon Ball Neo:
Healing the wounded, a frantic flight to Korin's Tower!
Tree was exhausted, he felt absolutely drained and every muscle in his body felt like it had burst. "Wow," he muttered, "I hurt in places I didn't even know that I had." Tree fell to his hands and knees and was about to pass out when Master Roshi came running out of his house.
"Tree! Tree," he yelled excitedly, "These two are hurt bad, we've gotta get some sensu beans for 'em or they're not gonna make it."
Tree slowly and painfully got to his feet. "What do you mean? What in the world is a sensu bean? And secondly, are you sure it's such a good idea to heal him?" He gestured at Koffi who lay in his small crater and seemed to be trying to get to his feet.
The Turtle Hermit looked from Koffi to Tree them he slowly shook his head yes. "I've seen some of the most vile people in the universe come around, I'm sure that that boy can."
Tree nodded, "Ok, now where do I get those Sensu thing's?"
Master Roshi gave him directions to the Tower of Korin and the young sayajin blasted off towards his destination. "I'm not going to let them down," he said to himself. "I'm not going to let them down."
After about five minutes of flight at top speed the tower came into sight. "That must be it," Tree said and he quickly flew up to the tower and landed. He peered at his new surroundings and quickly realized that other than some trees, a cat, and a small area that looked like it could be used for a house, there wasn't much here.
"Hmm," he said to himself. "I wonder where this Korin guy is." Tree began to walk around when he noticed that the small, pudgy white cat seemed to be watching him with some interest.
Tree walked over to the cat and petted his head, "Good kitty." The cat peered at Tree with a look of curiosity, "Why are you petting my head?"
Tree jumped back with a frightened yell. "What the heck? Cats can't talk" He took up one of the fighting stances Master Roshi had taught him. "You can't fool me," he said. "I've seen through your disguise, you're a demon cat aren't you?"
Korin walked over to Tree and peered up at him. "Relax kid, I'm Korin and this tower is my home." At hearing this Tree relaxed and dropped his attack stance. "So, you're Korin huh? My master sent me to you to get some sensu beans."
Korin smiled as much as his cat's mouth could manage, and let out a hearty laugh in his raspy voice. "Your master sent you huh? And just who may I ask is this master of yours? Most of the people who knew about this tower and my sensu beans are long dead kid."
Tree looked at Korin and smiled, "Master Roshi sent me. But look, I'm kinda in a hurry, so umm, no disrespect master Korin, but could you please hurry?"
Korin began to walk towards one of the trees that were populating the tower and when he got to it he took a hold of the trunk and shook it. Little white sensu beans began to fall from the branches and Korin gathered them up and put them into a pouch for Tree, he kept one in his hand and he tossed it to the young sayajin. "Eat that," he directed Tree. "It'll give you your strength back." Tree looked inquisitively at the small bean he held, but he did as he was told, and as soon as he swallowed the bean he felt a rush of strength course through his body. "Hey, Wow! These things really work, just like you said! Thanks master Korin."
Tree turned and ran, and with a flying leap off of the tower he took off towards Master Roshi's island at twice the speed he had been going when he left.
For a few seconds Korin stood there thinking about what had just happened. "That sigil on his gi, it was the Turtle Hermit's symbol, he was telling the truth after all. But the other odd thing his KI sure did feel like the KI of a sayajin. Wow, this could get interesting."
Tree landed on Master Roshi's island and ran up to his teacher. "I got the sensu beans master, just like you said to." Master Roshi looked at him and smiled. "Good, now hurry! We must give them to these two before it's too late."
Tree hurried over to Dante and slapped him gently on the face until he awoke. Dante looked at Tree through swollen eyes, and most of his body was covered in either burns or bloody scratches. "H....hey there Tree," he managed to say and showed a weak smile.
Tree opened the pouch that Korin had given him and dumped a single sensu bean into his palm. "Here Dante, eat this bean. It'll fix ya right up! And trust me, they work too."
Dante opened his mouth and allowed the bean to be dropped in he crunched it up and swallowed. Within seconds his scratches and burns faded, his eyes were no longer swollen, and he was back to normal. He quickly jumped to his feet and threw a few punches and kicks at the air in celebration. "Hey all right! Thanks Tree!" "You're welcome," Tree said. "But come on, we've got to help Koffi, he's hurt pretty badly." Dante stood in his place and gave Tree a look like he had just said something that should never be said, ever. "Are you kidding me? Think about what he did! How can you even consider healing him? Let him die, we'll be better off for it trust me."
Tree kept walking towards Koffi but he answered Dante as he went. "No Dante, we're going to heal him. Master Roshi said to, and if Master Roshi says it's a good idea it's a good idea."
When Tree reached Koffi he knelt down next to him, a sensu bean in his hand. "Koffi, hey, Koffi. Here eat this." Koffi managed to look up at him. "Screw...you...it'll...kill," before he could finish his sentence Tree shoved the bean in his mouth. "Eat it darn you!"
Koffi crunched the bean and swallowed it, and much like Dante, he was healed and on his feet within seconds.
Master Roshi made his way over to the group of sayajins. "Tree congratulations on your victory. You utilized the techniques that I have taught you better than I would've imagined you ever would."
Tree and Dante stared at Master Roshi in amazement. "You taught him the technique that defeated me," Koffi yelled. Master Roshi nodded. "Yes I did, the Kamehameha." Koffi and Dante stared at him for a few more seconds then the question that they had both been thinking came out into the open. "Will you train us?"
Master Roshi looked at Dante, "Of course I will," he said. Then he turned to Koffi. "Will you promise never to do evil again?" Koffi looked at the ground. "Of course master." Roshi grinned, "okay then."
And with that, Koffi and Dante became pupils of Master Roshi.
Healing the wounded, a frantic flight to Korin's Tower!
