BM: Hello! Yes, this is the LAST chapter of the ENTIRE story. This is the longest story I've written thusfar, and even if I HAVEN'T gotten any reviews yet, I still enjoyed writting it, and I'm posting it for anyone who's interested. After this story I'm going to take a short brea from DBZ and write for some other topics, but I'll be back, just you wait.
Chapter 23
epilogue
"It's done" Chi Chi sighed. Bulma smiled at her old friend and nodded.
On the edge of the crater, one building still stood. The school. C. Trunks prepared to send a blast to finish it off, but Bulma stopped him.
"I have an idea" she said
24 and Oolong landed the ship next to the school, and Dr. Briefs and Punch worked to renovate a room in the school while the others cleaned it up as best they could, while still leaving traces of the titanic battle that took place. Bulma quickly constructed a beacon and a computer which contained the entire history of the ice-jins and the story of their demise, which they left behind in the school after boarding the ship and taking off. Any space traveler who stopped to investigate the beacon would see a large stone tablet carved with these words:
"Let it be known, this was the setting for the titanic battle that finally rid the universe of the ice-jin scourge and their horrible planet trade"
Bulma stepped onto the bridge and looked around like a little girl in a candy store.
"Oh DAD!" She cried, running to the different panels.
"Coffee?" 24 asked, offering a tray to her. She thanked him and watched as he went and sat down, plugging himself into the ship.
"Alright, begin take off" Dr. Briefs said
"Roger!" Both Yajirobe and Oolong said. As they began the checks, Bulma grinned.
"This is GREAT!" she cried. Dr. Briefs laughed.
"You should strap in" he said. Bulma nodded and walked to her chair, sitting next to one of the former slaves.
"Thank you for bringing us along with you" the young woman said
"Oh, don't even mention it. How could we leave someone in need behind?" she asked with a wink. The woman smiled softly. As the final checks finished and the engines began humming, Dr. Briefs buckled in and nodded to Oolong.
"Lets all go home" he said. Oolong grinned.
"Roger that" and the last they saw of the planet it was quickly fading from view as the ship fell upward into the starry sky.
At this point, it should be known that this story ends. Nice ending huh? But I KNOW you don't want that to be EVERYTHING, so there's a bonus. The beginning of the next story, which is in the process of being revamped and completely changed, so much that it's not even the same story. War of Legends will be making a comeback folks, and now, the beginning. This story takes place directly after Return from Darkness. Enjoy!
The refugees on the final planet on the way to Earth waved as the ship took off into the sky, which left only the Z Senshi and a few former slaves from Earth on the ship.
"We're finally going home" A woman cheered. She and her family had been on the Ice-jin planet for nearly five years, and now they were finally on their way back to Earth. Teal smiled at her.
"Yes, it will be my first time on Earth" she said. The woman grinned.
"It's great!" she said. Teal smiled again. Things were going beautifully, and tomorrow they'd be on Earth again. Things were almost too perfect, but she simply credited that to the fates giving them a break after their grueling battle. If only it were true.
Suddenly, the entire ship shook, knocking her to the ground. She stood up and looked around wildly, then told the woman and her family to wait there while she went to find out what was going on. She ran out the door and ran directly into Bulma, who was dashing madly towards the bridge.
"Bulma, what's going on?" she asked
"There seems to be some sort of break in the space-time continuum caused by a number of things, but mainly a bunch of energy clinging to the ship. We entered a new warp speed a few minutes ago and that seems to be 'the straw that broke the camel's back' so to speak, and are you actually understanding what I'm saying?!" Bulma asked incredulously
"I AM a scientist" Teal said. Bulma grinned.
"Well then, you should come with me. I'm going to go talk to my dad. We know what's going on, we just don't know what to do about it"
