If you peeps have read the spoiler I put last chapter at the end, you would know the plans I have for my Dragon Ball SI stories. If this ruins the surprise, please forgive me. Or don't. I have no control over you...he he.

Disclaimers: I don't own Dragon Ball, Z, GT, Super, etc. I only own my original characters.

Kachoba's POV

"Whoaaa!" The Nimbus cloud descends to the village at a marvelous speed, and stops on a dime. I get to my feet, my body sinking through the cloud. (I guess that settles it.)

"Kachoba! My boy!" I head toward the voice while saying farewell to Goku. "Goku! Save some for me, I'll be right behind you!" Goku gives a thumbs up and the golden yellow cloud zooms toward the King's Castle.

"Dad! I got stronger! I even drank a mystical water that could have killed me, but made me stronger!" Papa's look of shock and (justified) worry is almost instant. The water, for some reason didn't kill me. Maybe even with my impure heart, the universe might be sparing me for at least once. Or maybe... nah, probably just luck. And thanks to my Saiyan biology, it could have made me even stronger than a normal drinker of the Ultra Divine Water, like Goku even though that was never confirmed.

"Kachoba are you listening to me!?" I'm pulled out of my thoughts. "Sorry dad, I was thinking." "Thinking!? You could have died from that water! If you died, I don't know what I've would have done!" Dad says with tears brewing in his ruby eyes. Ohhh.

"Dad... I'm sorry I caused you so much anxiety and worry. My friend Krillin died because of Piccolo's orders, Goku and I can't just do nothing about it." I try to explain my motivations for risking my life.

Dad pats my head. "But son, even if you are strong enough, you're just a boy... You're sixteen years old as far as I can tell. You should be going on dates, focusing on a career, enjoying life. I know how much you love fighting, but you have to think about your safety. Related or not, you are my only child!" Tears pour from my papa's eyes and into his blonde beard.

I hug him, causing him to be startled, but then returns the hug. "I knew that you were not really my father." He gives me a look. "I pieced together the clues. Why my hair always is in its shape, regardless of what I do. Why I'm so strong compared to humans, why I have a monkey-like tail. My pod and other things." I pull away from the hug. "I may not know my parents or my kind, but make no mistake, you are essentially my father. After all, you kept me, fed me, clothed me, bathed me, and taught me all I know about the world, and of science. You did out of the kindness of your heart, even though I have been selfish in getting stronger and learning new techniques."

"If I turn bad or not, know this... I love you pop." He smiles and wipes his face with his arm. "Dad... Let's go to King Castle. If Piccolo is there, then Goku needs my help. Please." I walk toward the airship, stepping inside and jumping onto the passenger seat. I look back to see my dad walking toward the ship. "Please be careful Kachoba."

King Castle/Chow Castle, Central City

In the distance, we see a devastated field of land where a courtyard used to be. A three-eyed man in purple pants being held by the head by a naturally bald green man with antennae, indigo colored gi, brown shoes, and a purple obi. This man had pink patches on his arms and forearms, as well as three conjoined red rings on his ankles and wrists. He must have been over eight feet tall.

His gi sported the kanji "Ma" on the chest. This meant demon.

This was the father of one of my favorite characters in this world. The evil half of Kami.

Demon King Piccolo.

On my right, I see Goku on the ground in pain. Half of Goku's gi was blown away from Piccolo's Explosive Demon Wave. He used the Nimbus to avoid defeat. Once the aircraft is low enough, I jump out and touch the ground with my feet in a "superhero landing" pose. All eyes are on me.

"Kachoba! You have to leave!" the triclops warns me. Piccolo's eyes are full of hate as he gazes upon me. "Another one with a tail!?"

"Dad! Get out of here! I can handle Piccolo with Goku!" I warn my father, causing the ship to leave the area, zooming out into the distance. I then lock eyes with Piccolo.

"So you're the Demon King that terrorized the Earth generations ago. It was your order to eliminate threats to you that resulted in the death of our friend Krillin." The Namekian Demon Clansman glares at me.

"Yes. I ordered my son Tambourine to kill martial artists so that they wouldn't use that pesky Mafuba or in simple terms, Evil Containment Wave, to get rid of me. The brat that was fighting me just now, killed my latest son, Drum. All of my children are dead. Because of wretches like you!" he points his right index finger at me, firing beams of yellow ki. I dodge with some ease.

"I can sense your ki. You don't have as much as you did before this battle started. Still, don't expect me to give you a handicap!" I lunge at Piccolo, running at speeds imperceptible to the unaided human eye. As I ready my left fist to attack his face, Piccolo brings his arm to parry. Time to piss him off.

"Scissors!" I poke him in his eyes with my other hand, causing him to drop Tien to help his eyes. As he tries to relieve his eyes, I punch him in the gut shouting "Rock!" and while he is stunned, I finish my assault with a thrust of my right palm. "Paper!" The Demon Clansman goes flying a good few feet away, giving me time to practice a technique in honor of my master.

I bring my palms together, channeling ki in an electrifying way. I then thrust them forward shouting "Thunder Shock Surprise!" I fire a yellow-green beam of 20,000 volts of electricity at Piccolo who just gets his bearings only to be immobilized and lifted up into the air. He is in agony as he tries to escape, causing me to concentrate on the technique. I think Goku should deliver the final blow, like history ordained.

"Goku! Hurry up and attack! Even while he's weakened, he is still strong enough to escape!" I provide Goku with the order and warning. I hear ki building up and being released in the form as a energy wave. Goku is using it to propel himself into the air at Piccolo!

I loosen my attack's hold on Piccolo, giving him the opportunity to free himself as my bind dissipates. King Piccolo with rage and hate, readies his Explosive Demon Wave at the incoming Goku who readies an attack of his own: Penetrate!

"You'll pay dearly for this, you bastard! But first, your friend dies for sure this time!"

"I'm coming at you with everything I got!" The tailed boy shouts! Time seems to slow down as Goku grows closer to what seems to be his demise. But that did not come to pass...

Goku breaks through Piccolo's chest and emerges from his back yelling! As Goku falls, Piccolo births one final egg spewing it into the distance. Piccolo passes on his spirit and will onto his final son, Junior. The Demon King takes his final break and explodes. Earth is safe for now... and it's all thanks to...

Oh crap! Goku! I rush toward the falling boy only for him to be caught by Yajirobe who arrives just in time! I rush over to Goku as Tien manages to walk over here with the help of Yajirobe.

"Hey Goku? Did you know I was thinking of going after Piccolo myself?" the fat swordsman claims. "Yeah right." Goku responds with mirthful laughter.

"What's so funny?" Yajirobe asks. Tien pipes in in a light-hearted scolding manner. "That's not nice. Yajirobe saved your life. You could at least show him some respect."

"I guess you're right!" the Saiyan apologizes. Yajirobe offers Goku the chance to rest in his car. Goku then asks if Master Roshi really dead. "Tien, what about Master Roshi? Is he really gone?"

"Yeah. He gave his life to stop Piccolo. Chiaotzu too." Tien confirms mournfully. "And the Eternal Dragon?" Tien nods. I furrow my brows. "Man... how do we deal with this? Will the lost be gone for good?" I feign hopelessness. "I don't know..." Tien replies with uncertainty.

"But hey! Seeing you guys fight has inspired me! I'm going to train harder than ever! That was some good teamwork Kachoba, Goku." the triclops congratulates.

"Thanks. It wasn't exactly a fair thing, but it was practical. Even though I just met him today, he didn't seem like the type to play fair. I wish I could have faced him earlier today! He was strong! But you know what they say. Brain beats brawn!" That causes us to laugh.

Yajirobe places Goku into his hover car. "See you. Get better. We'll see at the next tournament if you can take my championship!" Tien challenges Goku and bids farewell. "Yeah." he replies.

"I better stick with Tien. I bet the others are worried sick. I'm not participating in the next tournament though... I have my sights set on even greater power!" I say with conviction. I flash Goku a peace sign with my right hand. "Bye Kachoba!" the hero says as the car drives off. We wave.

"Nngh..." Tien holds his left arm in pain. "Are you alright?" I ask. "Yeah... just banged up..." His third eye glances off and spots something. "Hey... Kachoba... That's Goku's Power Pole..." he points to his right with his good arm. I look and there it was. On the ground collecting dust. I run up to retrieve the unbreakable red weapon and run back to assist Tien.

"There's... something over there..." he speaks. This must be the others in the distance.

Time skip brought to you by Fu noticing the subtle difference in timelines with a quizzical look.

"So Goku and Kachoba beat Piccolo?" Yamcha asks us. We were in a relocated Kame House. "Yeah, you should have seen them. If Kachoba wanted he could have beaten Piccolo after Goku wore him down!" Tien confirmed and praised as he was being tended to by blue-haired Launch.

"Goku was closer to Krillin than I was. And besides, he lost before so I figured he should have gotten payback! I used the Thunder Shock Surprise, a move our late master taught me, so I could give Goku the edge." I said. "Could I have beaten Piccolo alone? Probably. I set him up through trickery. Goku could have won without my help, but one things for sure... together we would have decimated him!" I boast with some merit. I was around Goku's level, though his power was a bit higher due to Tambourine and Piccolo beating him to near death. We both drank the Ultra Divine Water, so I should be at least half as strong.

The others laugh at my claim. "Oh, Bulma? Can you call my dad?" He must be worried sick!" "Oh that's right! He dropped you off at the battlefield." As she goes to the phone, we hear the door open, revealing Goku in his ripped gi.

"GOKU!" We shout in relief and joy. He looks around asking for the Power Pole. "Launch is using it as a broom." I tell him. The currently sweet woman gives Goku the Power Pole and removes the broom part of it.

"Thanks! Now I can use this to meet Kami, and if all goes well I can revive Krillin and Master Roshi!" he tells us to the others shock. The hero runs off to meet the Guardian deity of Earth.

"Did he say Kami"? "Revive Krillin and Master Roshi?"

I grin saying "Something tells me he isn't joking."

A while later Launch (who is now blonde) puts the finishing touches on Tien's medical treatment. And as we were watching the news that Goku, in commemoration of his deed of saving the world, King Furry is to give him the Blue Star Medal- the highest honor in the world, we were swarmed by news anchors, reporters and cameramen!

Launch halts them by pointing a gun at them. "We-we- just want to meet the boy who beat Piccolo..."

"Well... I helped him fight that monster while he was almost out of energy." This gets their attention.

"You? You helped that boy beat Piccolo?" The lead reporter asks me. I nod. "Yup. Goku is my friend. We were trained by the same Master alongside our friend Krillin. He is dead now, but don't worry! He and everyone that has suffered because of Piccolo will be brought back to life once he finishes his business with Kami!" And cue the stares.

"Where's my son!? Kachoba!" A blonde bearded man pushes through the news reporters with four short green creatures. "Dad!" I run up to hug him. We embrace with him tearing up. Even the Saibamen join in. "W-what are they?" "Wait... that's Chips! Capsule Corp researcher who reported on these creatures!" "The Saibamen! They were supposedly made artificially!"

A woman with a microphone walks up to us. " Mr. Chips. That's your son, Kachoba? The one who fought in a Martial Arts tournament?" We separate and dad confirms her questions.

"Yes, this is my boy. I found him outside my outpost sixteen years ago when he was a baby. He was all alone, so I took him in. These Saibamen were with him as seeds. Whoever made them probably wanted a means to keep him safe." My dad reveals as he wipes his face, staining his lab coat with his tears.

"Fascinating!" "So he helped the boy, Goku?"

"I just distracted the King so Goku could deliver the finishing blow.: I finish the interview with my eyes closed and a smile.

Meanwhile

As we were going about the rest of our day, the petrified Dragon Balls begin to be restored to their original splendor. They glow with gold and we gather them outside and summon the Dragon.

The sky turns black, and a beam shoots upward and swirls until it forms a green serpentine Eternal Dragon with four arms, and antlers(?), and crimson eyes.

This was Shenron.

"Speak your wish." the dragon states.

After some getting used to this revived Shenron, Bulma wishes for everyone killed by Piccolo and his minions to be restored back to life.

The dragon's eyes flash red. "Your wish has been granted. Farewell." As the dragon fades into golden light, the bodies of Master Roshi and Krillin begin to awaken.

The Dragon Balls rise and spin until they scatter, the sky returns to normal.

"Krillin!" "Master Roshi!" We go to the revived victims.

"What happened?" Krillin asks. "Yeah. I thought I was spending an eternity in the afterlife."

"Guys. It's a long story." I begin...

Through the art of being cheap, Kachoba sets up Piccolo to be killed by Goku! What does this mean for Piccolo Junior? What will Kachoba do in the meantime, now that he has confirmed that he won't be participating in the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament? Stay tuned for the final installment of the Dragon Ball part!

Some of you won't like how Kachoba took the easy way in beating Piccolo. Remember that Piccolo used up a fair bit of ki and stamina in the fight with Goku, this gave our protagonist the upper hand. Don't worry, I won't abandon this story. I will update chapters that have errors or that don't have enough content.

BY THE WAY, my poll for the Necromancer SI will close on November 30th and there has been only four votes so far. Spread the word and vote for which world of fiction shall I be dropped in! There will be attempts at lichdom for me, I mean come on, what necromancer isn't tempted by the prospect of becoming the "ultimate" form of undead?
