BM: Hello all, here's a chapter, it's gonna be short, and so are a few, unfortunately. We're gonna jump from what's happening with Goku and co., what's happening with Chi Chi and co., and what Seventeen and Dr. Briefs are up to. Don't worry, my madness is methodical, and it WILL all tie together. So, without further ado...
Chapter 12
And then...
Eighteen had shared what she had learned form Krillin with Piccolo and Tien, who in turn related it to the rest of the Senshi. The training from that point on became more intense and focused.
Goku and Vegeta spent hours practicing with their own punching bags, which happened to be trees. They'd punch until their knuckles became raw and bloody, and then they'd move on to kicks. Kibito spent much energy healing their wounds.
Eighteen lost track of the number of hours she spent learning more about and practicing with her newfound mental abilities. She worked hard to balance her physical training with her mental training. In addition, she and the others also received extensive training to protect their minds from Babidi and Bibidi's powers, as well as the powers of the psychic she had heard of from Krillin.
As an added twist, the kais found it fit to force them to adjust to new surroundings once in a while.
Yamcha yawned and stretched, walking on the warm leaf floor towards the door to the tent, planning to get in a bath before training began. The moment he set foot outside of the tent, however, he yelped in surprised and pulled his foot back in, blowing on it as steam rose from it. He looked outside the tent, and his eyes widened, raising from the ground to scan his surroundings. No trees. No marsh. No pond. Just sand. Hot, scorching sand for as far as he could see.
"WHAT IN THE WORLD?!"
The kais, every once in a while, moved their camp site to different regions of the planet. You could walk out of the scorching desert and into your tent when you go to bed, and step out of the tent and fall off a steep mountain cliff the next (Goten had found that out the hard way, fortunately he had raised his ki enough to be able to fly again). This particular day found them in a frozen wasteland. They began their day as usual, with running. Lots and lots of running. Running while wearing weights. Heavy weights. Through deep snow, up steep hills, over rickety bridges, on slippery ice. The gravity was once again heavier, thanks to the kais. Not that many of them noticed. Then, they split off into groups with trainers assigned specifically to train that group and draw as much potential out of them as possible. And at the end of the day, there'd be fighting. Lots and lots of fighting. The Kais madness was methodical however, and the intense training combined with the healing and restoring powers of the planet had the desired effect. Every single member of the Z Senshis' powers grew exponentially.
BM: And there it is, ladies and gents. Don't worry, I'm not going to skip out on telling you the good parts of the training, I'm just gonna take a break from the training and put some of the other characters in, like I said earlier. Don't forget to review, wether you believe it or not, your ideas ARE respected and often used.
