Mokona's Pre-Party Adventure!
Mokona stood on a sidewalk facing the street as cars flew by at 50 miles an hour. Little sweat drops fell from his head as the people in Satan City hustled and bustled around him. The expression on his face was one that was lost and confused and he couldn't help but notice the strange looks he was getting from people walking by. Despite his clever disguise consisting of a Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses, he still managed to stick out like a sore thumb. His confused expression quickly turned into an irritated one when he started pondering on what had happened the night before.
"Oh C'mon Mokona! I really need you to do this for me!" Umi whined, while sitting on her hands and knees on the ground. Mokona sat on the bed with his little arms folded shaking his head rapidly until he became red in the face.
"PUU!" He screeched in negation. Umi clasped her hands as her eyes began to fill pleadingly with moisture.
"Mokona! Gohan has done so much for us and I really think that we should do something really special for him! Mokona, have a heart! I know that you would be able to do it; no one can resist Mokona!" Umi cleverly convinced. Mokona lit up with pride for around 2 seconds before his eyes had narrowed back into slits and he returned to jumping angrily on the bed. "Please Mokona! I'll let you sleep with my favorite pillow when we get home!" Mokona pondered for a moment but 'hmphed' and turned his back to Umi. Umi became frustrated and rubbed her temples thinking of something that would sway Mokona. She smirked as she thought of one of Mokona's weaknesses. "I'll scratch your back every night for a whole week if you'll just do this itsy, bitsy, tiny, little favor for me." She offered sweetly. Mokona's ears perked up and he seemed to ponder for a moment when suddenly he spun around and offered her a paw in agreement.
Umi giggled and shook his paw. "Alright! It's a deal then!" Umi skipped happily to the bed and slipped under the covers. "You should get to sleep Mokona, because you have to make it back in time for the party tomorrow!" Umi chirped as she turned off the light on her side of the bed. Mokona grumbled quietly as he hopped to the other side and turned off his light. He couldn't help but wonder what exactly he had gotten himself into…
Mokona growled as he returned to trudging along the sidewalk. He did his best to ignore the comments that people were making but some of them were just unavoidable. "Mom!" a tiny girl screeched from her stroller, "I wanna pet the bunny!" Mokona huffed.
"No honey," the girl's mother replied, "you don't know where it's been." Mokona fumed and hopped quickly away from the pair. He was really frustrated. Here he was, doing his friend a favor and he was getting all sorts of crap! If things couldn't get any worse, Mokona also had no idea where he was going. Where the heck was this place anyway? Mokona stopped on the sidewalk and looked at a kiosk sitting by the street with a big sign that read 'MAPS'. Mokona squealed with delight and picked up a miniature road map and started walking away.
"Hey little dude!" A sloppy haired man yelled toward Mokona, "aren't you going to pay for that?" Mokona walked up to the enormous stand and slammed a couple gold pieces on top and walked away. The man's eyes lit up with tears. "Hey! Now I can feed all 15 of my children and take care of my wife! Thank you little dude!" Everyone on the street clapped for Mokona and Mokona suddenly found himself in a better mood.
After about 5 minutes of studying the map Mokona got so frustrated at its complexity that he ripped it up and started jumping on it like a madman. A shadow loomed over Mokona and he turned around only to see a police officer scribbling on a notepad. "I'm afraid I'm going to have to write you a ticket for littering sir." The police officer said as he kneeled down to hand the ticket to Mokona. Mokona glared at the police officer's hand and clamped his gigantic mouth onto it causing enough of a distraction to hop away leaving the officer yelping in pain. Mokona hopped as fast and as far as he could before he finally plopped down, depressed, on a bench in the park.
"Puu…" Mokona sighed as he looked around the park. He was completely out of ideas, but behind a tree he noticed a large billboard with red lettering. Mokona hopped down to get a closer look and squealed and danced with excitement. The sign read, 'HEAVEN, Just look up' with an arrow pointing toward the sky. Mokona cheered and without a second to lose he sprouted his magical wings and started flying up toward the sky.
Mokona had been flying for a little while when he noticed a huge city among the clouds. It had to have been heaven! He flew faster in hopes of getting this mission over with so he could receive his promised back scratches. Mokona landed and started hopping toward the gates, which immediately opened as he approached. He continued on down a short path until he approached a large desk with an extremely large red man sitting at it. He had a nametag on the desk that read "King Yemma"
Mokona hopped up onto the desk, which frightened the living daylights out of the gigantic man. "Well hello there little fella!" King Yemma bellowed with a deep chuckle, "how can I help you?" Mokona pulled out an envelope with Umi's written request to let Goku return to Earth. The giant man read the letter and let loose an enormous laugh. "There's no way I can let Son Goku return to Earth," King Yemma laughed as he wiped the tears out of his eyes, "you see, I'm the guardian of heaven and no one is allowed to leave without being wished back by the dragon balls." Mokona didn't like that answer very much. He grabbed a pen and wrote a little note on the back of the letter and handed it to King Yemma. His eyes widened as he read the note and got down and bowed to Mokona. "Lord Mokona, I shall do what you wish. Son Goku will be returned to Earth!"
After a couple of phone calls made by King Yemma, King Kai along with the famous Son Goku himself appeared at the gates of heaven. "Welcome King Kai, and Son Goku" King Yemma announced regally.
Goku smiled with his trademark grin. "Hey there King Yemma! Long time no see, what's up?" King Kai looked at King Yemma and seemed to ask the very same question.
"Well Goku, Lord Mokona," King Yemma stated while nodding toward the small creature, "has requested that you be returned back to earth and live once again." Goku grinned happily, while King Kai almost exploded.
"WHAT! You're going to let him go back to Earth after he destroyed my planet to kill Cell?" King Kai exploded in his nasal-like voice, "and you're going to release him to that pipsqueak of all people?" Mokona ran over and stomped on King Kai's foot causing him to yelp.
After awhile of debate, Mokona and a very confused Goku were walking outside of the pearly gates. The moment Goku stepped outside, his halo disappeared and he was alive once again. Goku smiled at Mokona as they stopped at the edge of the clouds that heaven sat upon. "Not that I'm not grateful," Goku said with a smile, "but why exactly did you go through the trouble to bring me back to life?" Mokona who was already very fond of the gentle man jumped into Goku's arms.
"Puu, pu pupu pu puu!" Mokona said to Goku. Goku smiled and placed a hand on Mokona's forehead. While training with King Kai, Son Goku and learned to see past events through another's eyes by just touching them. Through Mokona's eyes Goku saw Umi's past and all the adventures and sorrows she had gone through. He also saw how Umi and his son Gohan first met and how she had already become part of his friends and family's lives. Goku took his hand off of Mokona's forehead and grinned happily at Mokona.
"Wow! She's really neat! I can't wait to meet her; her and my son Goten for the first time! Goku exclaimed. Goku had died while his wife ChiChi was pregnant with their second son, Goten. "Well we better get going Mokona so we can make it to this party on time!" With that, Son Goku put two fingers to his forehead and instant transmissioned himself along with Mokona to earth where he would arrive home for the first time in many years.
Umi sat on the couch beside Gohan as he had just finished his fifth plate of dinner. Everyone was laughing and having a great time. Umi had already fallen in love with Gohan's friends, since they were all such wonderful people. When the Son family and Umi arrived at Master Roshi's house she was greeted by everyone who were excited to meet 'Gohan's girlfriend', besides Vegeta and Piccolo who always seemed to keep their distance. Gohan had decided to permanently place himself between Umi and Master Roshi to prevent any advances made by the old pervert. Umi smiled at everyone having a good time; she didn't have a very large extended family and her parents were very private people, which meant that she could have never experienced this kind of fun within her own family. Umi looked at her watch wondering where in the world Mokona was. Geez Mokona! You better not be goofing off! Oh, I hope they get here soon.
Almost at the exact moment Umi had been thinking Vegeta leapt up from his chair and looked around. "Does anyone feel that?" The whole room turned to look at Vegeta as Piccolo's eyes widened and looked a lot more like baseballs.
"Hey, that's…" before Piccolo could finish his sentence, the door flung open and there stood the silhouette of a tall man with spiky hair as well as a little creature on the ground beside him.
"Hiya guys!" The whole room gasped…
