Chapter 111: Hectic day
The drawing for the Saiyan tournament was starting today. Everyone who was participating was excited. The champions mostly. The royal family was pleased that they could finally get the Saiyan Tournament underway.
Cageta walked over to Goku's room. She knocks on the door. Chi-chi wakes up. She puts her robe on and walks over to the door. She opens it and she sees Cageta. " Oh Queen Cageta. Good morning."
" No need to be so formal."
" Yes of course."
Goku was still sleeping. Chi-chi walked over to here husband. " Goku… time to get up." She started to shake him. Chi-chi sighed. " He is virtually impossible!"
" I know what you mean. My husband can be the same way."
" Well I guess there is only one way to wake him up." Turns to Goku.
" Your breakfast is getting cold!"
" Breakfast? Where?" Goku sat up, drooling.
Cageta let out a laugh. " Goku you're so crazy sometimes."
" I know… so what's going on?"
" We are going to be picking the matches for the Saiyan Tournament today."
" THAT'S TODAY! Ah!" Goku jumps out of bed and quickly gets his clothes. He then runs out of the room. He was headed for the common hall.
Chi-chi and Cageta stared down the doorway. They couldn't believe Goku.
" Insane."
" I know. But then again Goku's been like this for years."
Pretty much everyone else was in the common hall. Bardock heard someone running down the hall. He looked in the direction of the door and then next thing he knew Raditz was on the ground and a flash of light came through the room. Raditz whipped himself down and looked in the direction of the person who knocked him over. And he wasn't surprised.
" Kakarot! Do you mind watching where your going?"
" oops sorry bro. I'm in a hurry."
" I can see that." He said.
" What? What did I do?"
" You knocked me over again. Why is it every time you come in here someone always ends up on the floor? And that person always seems to be me."
" I said I was sorry. But I have to get prepared. The Saiyan tournament is starting today."
" Ah yes. I heard there was over forty people in it this year." Tarka said from the door.
" Oh hey Tarka." Bardock said, as he didn't even look up from his meal.
" So you going to be in it?" Gohan asked, "Oh good morning dad."
" Morning… you just get here?"
" Yeah."
Goku came over with a hand full of food and that is an understatement. It was a mountain high pill of food. Gohan looked up the pill nearly touched the ceiling. Tarka came over.
" My gosh Kakarot you can sure eat can't you?"
" You bet. But this is a light meal."
Everyone gulps. " That's just a light meal?" Tarka said in disbelief.
" Yeah.. for my dad. That's nothing."
" Damn."
" Morning." Videl said.
" Oh hey." Gohan said.
" Well Goku you sure have a manly breakfast." Videl said.
" Thank you. I try to have a manly breakfast every day."
Videl laughed. Just after that Cageta came in. " Well I guess I didn't have to go far to find everyone."
" Uh?" Goku looked up, " Oh hey Cageta."
Orphan saw all those dishes. " Damn Son Goku… I guess there is a relation after all."
" What?"
" Orphan!"
" What's wrong Cageta?"
" I thought I told you not to say anything about that."
" Oh ya oops sorry."
Tailless was now at the door way. " Oh sure… you torture me.. but your brother you let off easy."
Once again Cageta lost here temper and her eyes turned red. Tailless was on the ground again. Goku looked on. He walked over to her, trying his hardest to calm her down. " Cageta… he didn't mean it. Cool it."
For a quick second Cageta took her eyes off Tailless and redirected he 'attack' at Goku. Tailless couldn't believe that Goku would stick up for him… HIM, The prince of destruction. The one who tried to kill his brother, Trunks. Goku was now the one who was suffering his mother's wrath. Tailless was a very complicated guy. He would act like he hated someone but then he'd help them. Tailless' eyes then turned red. He canceled out his mother's attack. She looked back at him.
" Mother what's your deal? You wake up on the wrong side of the bed or something. Or is it that magical freak of a brother of yours."
Tailless was strong willed. He didn't take any crap from anyone.
" Tailless I'm just not in the mood. I'm on the edge. You try doing what I do and not lose it once or twice."
" Oh ya… well what do you do that makes you lose it?"
" Tailless… being a mother, mate, and ruler of this planet takes a lot. It's stressful… and well I don't like it when I am questioned, like what you just did."
" Alright what about Kakarot?"
Cageta turns to Goku. " I'm sorry about that Goku. I really didn't mean it."
" No worries. I know you didn't mean it." Goku said.
" Well then… now that has been taken care of… let's get to the drawing."
" I can't wait!"
Cageta walked out of the room. Everyone looked at Goku. Tailless was the most interested in the whole thing. Not only did Goku survive Cageta's torture, Goku was rather intrested in the idea of finding out who he was going to fight.
In another huge room in the castle….
All the competitors were in the room. There were many people in the room.
There were about 48 competitors in this years Saiyan tournament.
Vallen and Orphan saw each other. " Oh hey Vallen!"
" Uh? Oh hey Orphan. So I see your going to be doing the match ups this year."
" Yeah. From what I can see this is going to be a great tournament."
" Yes it shall… it's a shame you can't join."
" Well I do have something to do. I'm going back to Earth and I'm going to try to get some other Saiyans to come to Vegeta."
Cageta came over to her brother. " Come on bro. We have to get started."
" Alright, I'm coming." Turns to Vallen, " See ya."
Orphan goes up to the 'stage'. " Good afternoon all. I know you are all excited to be here. Well enough idol talk. Lets get to the matter at hand. So lets get to rules of the drawing. There are three groups. Now then we are going to do this in three times. I am going to name the people I each group and they will line up to pick a number from 1 to 16. Now as I said earlier there are three groups. Remember… these names were randomly picked at the beginning of the tournament process."
Tarka comes over with three envelopes. " Why thank you Tarka."
" Don't mention it."
" Alright… Group A… once I say your name… please report to your section of the room. I would appreciate silence."
The room quieted down. " Thank you." Orphan opened the envelope.
" Group A are the following people: Vegeta, Torra, Reen, Bra, Fassia, Rokon, Bulma, Trunks, Ray, Turla, Raditz, Lord Nikon, Android 15,Goku, Android 18 and Princess Fashia."
Krillin sighed. " Lucky me! I'm not in the same group as you Goku."
" Yeah. Well good luck Krillin." Goku said. He walked over to the area marked Group A.
" Well little brother fancy meeting you here."
" Very funny."
Orphan cleared his throat and opened the next envelope. " The following are in group B: Cageta, Tien, Tashia, Zarbon, Android 17, Chi-chi, Turles, Goten, Nappa, Zageta, Turlen, Tegeta, Vallen, Piccolo, Vegeta Jr., and Supreme Kai."
Goku couldn't believe his ears. " Chi-chi and the Supreme Kai are fighting… that's a bit hard to believe."
" I don't know why your so complexed. Your mate is a Saiyan, its only natural." Raditz said.
Orphan looked at the rest of the people in the croud. " Well it's rather apparent who's in Group C… but I'll read the names off anyway. Tailless, Yamcha, Somar, Bardock, Gohan, Pan, Saguta, Victoria, Samaka, Asocka, Regeta, Martanka, Chibi, Videl, Android 14, and Krillin."
Goku was going crazy right about now. " Ah…. Almost everyone I know is in that group. And they have one hell of a mean fighter on their side."
" You talking about Tailless?"
" Yes I am."
" Well… I can tell you…. My brother wouldn't take it too far Kakarot." Fashia said.
" How can you be so sure?"
" It's part of the rules moron. You can't kill in the tournament!"
" Oh ya that's right."
" What an idiot." Raditz thought to himself.
Orphan looked up. " Oh boy. This never gets any easier."
Cageta came over to her brother. " What's wrong?"
" I hate having to do all these darn match ups. It's so long."
" I know. But hey… you said you wanted to do something before you left."
" Ya sis but shoot…. 48 people!"
" I know… Orphan. I know. Don't worry about it."
Orphan looked at the groups. " Alright now that the shorting has been completed… lets get to the match ups. Now then…. This is how this is going to work. And I'm only going to explain this once. This is how the numbers will match: 1 fights 16, 4 fights 13, 5 fights 12, 8 fights 9, 7 fights 10, 6 fights 11, 3 and 14, and 2 and 15. Got all that…. Good!" He takes a short breath. " Alright everyone…. Pick those numbers. And once your done…. Come up here and show me."
The whole group picked numbers and Orphan had all the results. A/N: I'm not going to go through all those people… it will just take way too long. I think you'll be able to figure it out. I'm starting with the 1, 16 fight in a and working my way down.
On a big screen all the match ups were written:

Goku looked up at the board. " Well I fight 18 first. Why is it I always have light matches first. I feel bad for Torra though. He has to fight Vegeta first."
" And knowing Vegeta he will hold his power back until the next few rounds." Raditz said.
" I just hope I repaired enough."
" So do we all." Raditz said.
" Well every… I guess that takes care of that. The first fight will commence soon."
Orphan jumped down from the stage. He joined up with his sister in the hall.
" Orphan are you sure you want to leave already?"
" I have too… you know I can't be a part of this tournament. I think Tarka and Zorn will be able to manage. They have been doing this a long time. They should be fine."
" Alright… Orphan… listen to me… I want you to be careful while you are on Earth you hear?"
" Yes mother…" He joked.
" All joking aside… be careful. The Saiyans you are going after are very strong. So don't let your guard down."
" Don't worry about me. I can handle myself. I'm not a little kid anymore. Don't worry I'll be back."
Orphan disappears. Cageta walks back to the room where the first match Vegeta vs. Torra will begin.
