Chapter 5: The Master Plan
Last time on Dragonball Extreme Crisis, Gohan, Goten, and Pan desperately fly to a rocky terrain for they suspected a couple of power levels approaching Earth. These power levels were none other than Goku and Vexxon! Goten was desperate to find out if it was really true that his father returned, but Gohan was also desperate to help his younger brother who was seized by Vexxon, but could not get past Goku, who knocked him out. After some very useful information from Goten, Vexxon and Goku flew towards West City to capture Vegeta and Trunks, and then destroyed the city. This horrible event struck Bura so much that she planned to avenge the deaths of her people, and rescue her brother and her father. Pan also planned to rescue her uncle and brother from Natalishia's evil clutches, but would it be enough?
Videl stood on her balcony watching the skies for her precious husband and daughter to return home. She was certain that Chi Chi was doing the same thing for her youngest son. I feel so sorry for her, she thought to herself, ever since Goku left Earth to save it, she hasn't been doing very well lately. Then, her worried look on her face turned into a scowl. Gohan hasn't been this late coming home before! This REALLY annoys me! She continued her thoughts.
She caught sight of Marron and Uubu stepping out of the house next door. "Hello there!" she greeted. "Hi Videl!" Marron greeted back. "Do you guys have any idea of where Gohan and Pan have gone to?" Videl asked. "Yeah," Uubu answered as he and his girlfriend walked towards Videl's house, "they have felt some power levels coming towards Earth so they decided to go and check it out." Videl curled her lower lip with impatience, and exclaimed, "I thought that Gohan was through with fighting already!" "Well, he wanted to check it out," Marron pointed out, "he thought that it could be his father returning, and of course he is not through with fighting yet. In fact, he is a Super Saiyan 4 right now. Do you remember, Videl, the fight with Vexina?" Videl just frowned and nodded. She did remember the fight that was three years ago, and…Goten's death. It was horrible, but it was also a good thing that Gohan turned into a Super Saiyan 4 and Trunks turned into a Super Saiyan 3, and defeated that viral sorceress. Pan turned into a Super Saiyan as well, but suffered a major injury that prevented her from fighting. However, when Dende healed her before calling the Eternal Dragon from the black star dragonballs, she was as good as new. Gohan was really proud of his daughter for contributing so much in the battle, but Videl just smiled shyly for she would not expect her husband to take part in a battle even after he said that he would not fight again.
Just then, Uubu noticed two people flying towards them from opposite sides, and then he recognized them. "Videl, your daughter as returned, and the other person is Bura," he announced, "Wait a minute! Bura is carrying someone!" Waving his arms, he welcomed the two female fighters.
Landing on the ground, Bura and Pan noticed each other's panicking faces. I know that look, Bura thought to herself, Pan always shows that look whenever someone close to her has been separated from her. She revealed that very same emotion when Goten was killed by that sorceress, Vexina. Now I think I know why she is showing this hurt—this anger—Gohan and Goten has been captured by those barbarians.
Pan gasped at the now stirring body of Bulma in Bura's arms, and then she studied the female hybrid's worried face and wet appearance. Bura must have lost someone close to her, and Bulma is waking up from what happened to be unconsciousness, she thought to herself, I feel so sorry for those two, and I think I know why they are showing these tough emotional feelings. That traitor of my grandfather and his partner captured Vegeta and Trunks. I will show them!
Bura noticed that her mother was about to wake up really soon so she carefully put her down. Slowly, Bulma's eyes opened to see her daughter bending over with a worried look on her face. Videl ran to her friend and Uubu and Marron closely followed. "What…happened?" Bulma asked as she stood up. Then she noticed Videl, Pan, Uubu, and Marron all looking at her. "Hello, guys," she greeted. Then she turned her daughter and confusedly asked, "How did I get here, and how did I get unconscious? I don't seem to remember what happened. Refresh my memory." Bura explained her mother all about how Goku and his partner knocked her mother out, captured Trunks and Vegeta, and destroyed West City. Bulma gasped at this horrible news, and Pan, Videl, Uubu, and Marron followed in unison.
Pan was really furious at her grandfather because not only did he capture her father and brother, but also he captured her boyfriend and his father. "That traitor must be stopped!" she shouted as she powered up. Videl was also enraged. "Where was that kind and innocent man that cared about his friends, family, and this planet? What ever happened to that hero that devoted his life to everyone on Earth? First he disappeared to prevent Earth from being destroyed. Now, five years later, he returns with someone else to capture our four loved ones, Gohan, Vegeta, Trunks, and Goten, and destroys West City," she said with a look of vengefulness in her eyes.
Bura piped in, "but that is not all." Everyone else looked at her questionably. She added with a darker and more formidable voice, "I noticed something after Goku knocked out you mother. On his forehead, my eyes caught site of the letter 'N' written in some kind of elegant and italicized font that appeared and then disappeared in an instant." This shocked everyone else except for Videl and Bulma, who closed their eyes as they recalled what had happened before with Vegeta. A single tear dripped from Bulma's sad eyes as she sobbed, "who would have done this to him?"
"I know who," a voice answered from behind Uubu, Marron, Pan, Bura, Videl, and Bulma. Startled, Bulma and Videl reopened their eyes and, along with the others, turned their heads and saw a familiar woman, who was staring back at them. "Who are you?" Pan asked snottily. "My name is Tira," the woman answered. Now Videl and Bulma recognized her. "Queen Tira?" Videl asked, "the one who healed Gohan and helped the Z fighters fight that sorceress, Felishia?" Tira nodded. Pan looked at her mother with a questionable look. "You know this stranger, mother?" she asked. "Yes dear," Videl answered, "twenty years ago, Vegeta reunited with his sister on the way to Goku's house. Tira, of course, is Vegeta's sister. When she met Goten, Trunks, Yamcha, Bulma and her friend Mariona, Goku, and I—and when she heard about this sorceress who was willing to take over Earth, she wanted to help us fight her. Also, she healed your father when he was sick with her powers." "She did?" Pan asked and her mother nodded. "So that is my aunt?" Bura asked her mother, who nodded at her daughter's question.
"I am really sorry to interrupt your conversation, but I couldn't help it," Tira apologized. "No problem at all, Tira," Bulma replied, "however, there is something that I want to tell you about. Goku and one of his partners have captured your brother and nephew, and Goten and Gohan. Somehow, Goku or Kakarot, which is what you call him, have turned against us." Tira growled with irritation. Then she turned to Bura and asked, "you told everyone here that when you saw Kakarot acting 'out of his character' when the letter 'N' on his forehead, I presume?" Bura nodded and said, "It was very odd. Do you know what this 'N' stands for because when my father had that 'M' on his forehead, and it stood for 'Majin'."
Her aunt explained, "I have seen that 'N' before. Before I left my home planet, Vegeta, I noticed that everyone who ever worshipped and praised me had the very same symbol. This symbol stands for 'Natalishia'. I have asked the computer who operates my ship about this new threat, and she said that Natalishia was a fusion result of the Ultimate Saiyan, Natalia and the Shadow Sorceress, Felishia. Those two evil bitches fused in hell, and the fusion result that they formed revived herself, my brother Velucro, and those two others: Amakaio and Broli. Then they invaded Planet Vegeta, and destroyed it after taking my beloved people! Luckily, I escaped that horrible disaster. Now I want to return to the first planet that Natalishia conquered before Planet Vegeta, and avenge my planet's destruction, and save my brother's life. I also want to save Gohan, Goten, and Trunks' lives as well." Covering her face with her hands, Tira began to sob.
Marron, Pan, and Bura were sympathetic for the troubled queen, and they wanted to help her as best as they could. "We will help you, Tira," Pan suggested, "Marron, Bura, and I are all fighters, and we will surely help you with this mission of yours." Marron piped in, "I agree with you Pan for I will help Tira rescue her brother and nephew as well as your father and uncle." "Pan!" Videl shouted, "You know what your father would say if he were here! It is too dangerous for you!"
"Mother, what you don't know is that I am a Super Saiyan right now! If I don't bring father back then who will?" That made Videl really angry. "Pan! I know that you want to help your father, but you cannot! It is too dangerous! I don't want my only daughter to be destroyed by people who are much more powerful than her!" Bulma agreed with her: "I agree with you, Videl! I don't want my daughter to go off and lose to a bunch of dangerous threats!" "Mother!" Bura rebelled, "this is my chance to prove myself to my father and brother! You have to believe both Pan and I!" Pan nodded in agreement.
Tira broke up this argument by pointing out the fact that Pan and Bura are of Saiyan blood, and that stopping them from going into battle no matter what gender they are is virtuously impossible. Also, since Bura is Tira's niece, it would be a wonderful opportunity to show her ancestors what a true fighter she actually was. However, when Bulma and Videl refused this suggestion, Tira said, "I will take care of them, and I promise that they won't be hurt for I have a plan that would definitely work."
That made all eyes look at the female warrior with question. Tira turned to Pan, Marron, and Bura, and said, "You have a simple yet a bit of a challenging task to do. I want you three to find Goten, Trunks, Vegeta, and Gohan and get them out of captivity. Then, all of you will take care of those guards who are trying to attack you." Marron asked, "What about you? What will you do?" Tira answered her, "I will take care of Natalishia, Velucro, Broli, and Amakaio, and avenge my planet's destruction." Uubu joined in: "What about me?" Tira turned to him and answered, "you will protect those who are on this planet. There should be a powerful fighter to stay here and protect Earth just in case anymore of Natalishia's new slaves return here to do more damage. I can sense that you are very powerful indeed." As the young fighter agreed with his task, Bura growled with irritation as she thought of West City's destruction.
Pan turned around to walk away in some direction when Marron called after her, "hey Pan, what is going on? Why are you walking away?" Pan turned to face her friend and answered, "I am just going away for awhile to think some things through, and then I will rejoin you." "Okay Pan," Marron agreed.
Pan walked into her house and shut the door as she recalled the incident when her father and uncle were taken away. She didn't know what to do about her grandfather. In fact, he was so good to her, and yet he returned to capture her father and uncle. What was he thinking of taking three of the closest men in her life? What has Goten, Trunks, Gohan, and even Vegeta ever done to him? Pan didn't know whether to kill her grandfather for what he had done wrong to both her and her friend Bura, or just let everything take its course. If she killed her grandfather, it would be like killing her friend—her sensei—her relative. A part of her would disappear and she would be haunted for the rest of her life. However, if she spared Goku's life, he would take more lives just as he did in West City. His purity would be lost forever and there would be no way of restoring it. She also thought of what Bura said before. What was she talking about when she said that Goku was controlled? It has to be the case! It has to be! If it wasn't, there would be no way that Goku would ever hurt the civilians of the first city that he visited, and there would also be no possible way of capturing his own sons and friends. Confused and stressed, Pan covered her face and started to sob. She wanted to help her boyfriend, her uncle, and her father, but she also wanted to spare her grandfather's life. Perhaps the most honorable thing to do was to spare her grandfather's life even if it was the last thing for her to do. After wiping her eyes with a paper napkin, Pan walked out of the door of her house and carefully shut it behind her.
Bura, Marron, and Tira noticed the young quarter-Saiyan stepping out of her house. Marron was being embraced by her boyfriend for one last moment. Videl smiled as she gave her daughter a hug. "I am so proud of you, Pan," she said, "I know I want Gohan back as much as you do. Be careful, sweetie, and come home alive." "I will, mother," Pan replied, "You will take care of Chi Chi, will you?" Videl nodded at her daughter's question and let her go towards the other female fighters who were waiting for her. "Good luck, Bura," Bulma waved as Uubu wished the same luck for his girlfriend. Marron blew him a kiss, and put a hand on Tira's shoulder. Pan and Bura did the same thing, and Tira teleported the three female fighters and herself towards Planet Natalishia.
Pan, Tira, Bura, and Marron depart for Planet Natalishia on a very important mission. Will they make it in time to save Gohan, Goten, Trunks, and Vegeta? What about Goku—will he return to the way he was before or is his innocence and purity gone for good? Don't miss the next exciting chapter of Dragonball EC!
It is a family/lovers reunion on the next chapter of Dragonball EC when Gohan, Goten, Trunks, and Vegeta team up with Tira, Marron, Bura, and Pan to defeat Natalishia and her evil forces. Don't miss Natalishia's defeat on next chapter of Dragonball EC!
