Chapter Fifteen: Dragon Ball Hunt

Yamako emerged from the gateway and looked out at her surroundings. She was standing on a beach in front of a beautiful ocean. Looking quickly at the radar she took off into the sky. She flew a few feet above the ocean surface for almost 30 minutes before she noticed that she was directly on top of the Dragon Ball. She looked down and realized it must be on the bottom of the ocean floor buried out of sight. Crossing her arms in front of her chest she looked over her chooses in her mind and decided that she didn't feel like getting her feet wet so she would just have to use her psychic powers to retrieve the Dragon Ball. Smirking she closed her eyes and concentrated for a moment. Her hair began to flutter around her and down on the ocean floor the 1 star Dragon Ball glowed a bright blue and dug itself out of the sand bed. Yamako's eyes flew open and glowed a bright blue. She extended her right hand out in front of her above the water and made sure her fingers were slightly curled towards the surface. As she did this a small blue glow emitted around her and soon the Dragon Ball floated off the ground and shot through the water towards the surface. Within a few seconds the Dragon Ball flew into her palm. On reflex Yamako closed her fingers around the Dragon Ball. Yamako brought it to her face and smirked. She then reached behind her and placed it in her backpack.

2 more.

Yamako smirked even wider as she looked over her shoulder to make sure the Dragon Ball was safe inside her bag. She then whirled her head forward with closed eyes. Her eyes flew open as she faced forward and the gateway opened. Yamako quickly flew through it and disappeared into the void between the 2 locations.

SCENE CHANGE

Kumori carefully floated down, landing on top of a large tent and being careful not to get spotted. After landing he checked the radar to make sure he was in the right place. Once he confirmed his location he looked around for the Dragon Ball. In the distance Kumori saw a juggler entertaining a large group of people. Looking closer Kumori noticed that along with 3 small yellow balls the guy was also juggling a Dragon Ball. Letting out a pondering sigh he smirked and disappeared. Flying faster than the normal eye could see he zoomed over to the juggler and snatched the Dragon Ball out of the air before it landed in the juggler's palm. The guy jerked slightly as he almost dropped the other balls and he along with several of the on lookers were suddenly hit by gust of wind from Kumori's passing form. On the top of a nearby tent Kumori reappeared and smirked as he looked at the Dragon Ball. He turned it around in his hand and noticed that it was the 5 star Dragon Ball. Holding it up he smiled smugly as he spun it around on his finger and then whipped his hand out from underneath it, then swung it around and caught it in his hand. He then quickly placed it in his bag and floated off into the air. He heaved a sigh and activated his dragon radar in order to continue his search.

Only 1 more to go.

Kumori took off into the sky towards a northern city in order to get the Dragon Ball that was located there.

SCENE CHANGE

Yamako reappeared on a ridge overlooking a large forest. Yamako looked around behind her and noticed a very large cave. Looking up she saw that it was already close to midnight of her second night searching for the Dragon Balls so she quickly checked her radar and walked inside. It was too dark to see anything inside the cave so Yamako lit a small ki blast in her hand and used it as a light. Yamako continued to search the inside of the cave and soon she had walked 2 or 3 miles into the cave. Heaving a sigh Yamako checked the radar again and noticed that she was only a few feet away from it. Glancing around the cavern she saw something in the cavern wall reflect the light of her ki and decided to check it out. Yamako was about to walk over when she heard the sound of breathing. The breathing was too loud to be from a bat or other small creature and there were several of them. Not knowing what kinds of animals were over there she decided to find out by lighting up the entire cavern. Allowing her ki ball to dissolve she put her hands to the side of her face and faced the spot where her ki ball had been reflecting.

"SOLAR FLARE!" Yamako cried as she clamped her eyes shut.

A blinding light illuminated the room and made the cavern as bright as day. Yamako opened her eyes in order to look around. Yamako saw the forms of a group of sleeping T-Rexes. There were 2 adults and about 5 youngsters all sleeping, huddled together on the floor. Yamako saw that the object reflecting her ki was a Dragon Ball stuck in the cavern wall. Yamako was just about to creep over there when suddenly 1 of the adults opened its eyes and looked around. It lifted its head and spotted Yamako. It gave a loud roar and scrambled to its feet as the others around him slowly awoke and did the same. Yamako groaned in annoyance and dropped into a fighting position. The 5 youngsters charged her and attempted to turn her into a meal. Yamako jumped into the air and stomped down on the head of the T-Rex that was trying to bite her. The dinosaur sprawled to the floor from the force of the attack and Yamako ran towards the Dragon Ball, which was located behind the 2 adults. The other 4 youngsters followed her closely with their jaws open in anticipation. Yamako allowed 2 of them to catch up with her on either side and then skidded to her right side under 1 of them. This caused the 1 to fall over and knock the other over. Yamako quickly got to her feet and continued running towards the 2 adults who were now charging towards her. Putting on a burst of speed she ran in between the 2 adults before they knew what was happening. Whirling around Yamako grabbed 1 of their tails and began to spin around. The other skidded to a stop and turned around in order to attack again. Yamako quickly released the dinosaur's tail and sent it flying into the other adult, causing them both to crash into a cave wall. The 2 remaining youngsters attacked her simultaneously from both sides. Yamako reacted quickly and punched 1 across the jaw and kicked the other in the stomach. Both fell to the ground unconscious and while the others were trying to untangle themselves and get up Yamako casually walked over to the Dragon Ball. Yamako gently pried it from the cavern wall and looked it over. It was the 7 star Dragon Ball and Yamako chuckled at the irony of it. She had just dealt with 7 T-Rexes and now she had the 7 star Dragon Ball. Yamako shrugged and placed it in her bag before turning and heading for the entrance to the cave. As Yamako left the cavern the Solar Flare faded and she took off running as she heard the dinosaurs pick themselves up and begin to chase after her. Yamako emerged from the cave about 30 minutes later and took off into the night sky. Yamako looked over her shoulder as she heard the 7 T-Rexes roaring loudly at her and smirked triumphantly before disappearing into another gateway.

SCENE CHANGE

Kumori gently landed in a small alley between 2 cages and quickly looked around to make sure the coast was clear. Once he was sure no 1 was watching he stepped out and followed his dragon radar to the location of the last Dragon Ball he was suppose to collect. Slowly and casually walking through the crowd Kumori soon found himself at the polar bear exhibit of the zoo. Once there he looked at the dragon radar and saw that the Dragon Ball was right next to him. Glancing into the exhibit he found a young polar bear bouncing the Dragon Ball in its paws. Groaning in annoyance Kumori took a deep breath and jumped over the fence blocking visitors from the polar bears. Several other zoo visitors gasped as he landed inside the exhibit and headed for the young polar bear cub. The mother polar bear quickly jumped in front of her infant and snarled ferociously at Kumori. Kumori hesitated for a moment then slowly stepped forward as over 100 spectators watched nervously. The polar bear roared and lunged forward, slashing with her gigantic paw. Kumori dodged to his left and then sprang over the polar bear's body. The polar bear swiveled around and attacked again. Kumori jumped backwards and gently smacked the polar bear's face with his palm and sent her skidding a few feet. While she was picking herself up and shaking her head in order to recover her bearings Kumori quickly pried the Dragon Ball away from a very scared and spunky cub. The cub kept trying to slash him across the chest. Managing to dodge all of the cubs swipes Kumori took 2 running leaps and jumped over the fence. After safely landing Kumori took off running in order to avoid questions from curious and shocked people as well as the zookeepers. Once he was in a secluded spot he checked to see what Dragon Ball it was. It turned out to be the 4 star Dragon Ball and Kumori smiled slightly as he remembered the stories he'd heard about Goku believing that this Dragon Ball was his adoptive grandfather, Gohan, when he was a kid. Letting out a chuckling sigh he shook his head and placed it in his bag before disappearing and reappearing in the air. Taking a moment to close his eyes and enjoy the feeling of the wind blowing through his hair he took off towards Kazefern Cliff.

SCENE CHANGE

Yamako emerged at the same clearing she used to go to with Gohan when she was younger. She looked around her and noticed Drakoe curled up sleeping. Chuckling she walked over to him and patted him on the head and woke him up. Drakoe blinked a few times and yawned loudly. He then smacked his lips a few times and stood, stretching out his stiff muscles. Looking down he saw Yamako and smiled brightly. Yamako smiled back and patted Drakoe's nose. Yamako then looked sternly at him. Drakoe cocked his head in curiosity and waited for Yamako to explain.

"Listen Drake…I need you to comb the forest for a Dragon Ball. The dragon radar can't pinpoint its location with all this growth and it will take too long for me to look by myself, especially if it's being moved."

Drakoe nodded and roared before unfolding his wings and taking off into the air. Drakoe knew what the Dragon Balls looked like because Yamako had sent him a telepathic image of what they looked like. As Drakoe disappeared into the horizon Yamako took off in the opposite direction in search of the Dragon Ball.

Yamako searched for several minutes without any luck. After a while she landed and began to look on foot but the signal on the dragon radar kept moving so she couldn't get a good fix. Yamako let out a sigh of irritation and continued to search. After searching for a good 20 minutes she growled in annoyance and punched the side of a mountain causing it to crumble into a million pieces. She looked at the mountain and realized that she actually shattered several mountains with the force of her punch. There was now a clear trail that stretched as far as the eye could see. She smirked and chuckled slightly realizing that she was going to have to be more careful with her new power. Suddenly she heard the sound of roaring behind her. She looked off into the horizon and noticed Drakoe in the distance heading towards her. Upon closer inspection she noticed another figure flying along side Drakoe. She smiled slightly when she recognized the figure as Icarus. Soon Icarus and Drakoe landed in front of her.

"Hey Icarus. I haven't seen you in a while."

Icarus squawked backed happily. Yamako then turned to Drakoe.

"You have any luck Drake?"

Drakoe roared and nodded motioning towards Icarus. Yamako looked back at the much smaller dragon and Icarus slowly stepped forward. Once Icarus was only a foot or 2 in front of Yamako he extended his hands to her. Yamako looked down at his hands and noticed that he was holding something. She put her hand out under his and Icarus released the object he was holding. Yamako instantly saw that it was the last Dragon Ball. It was the 2 star Dragon Ball. Yamako smiled slightly and looked back at Icarus. Icarus squawked happily as he stepped back next to Drakoe.

"Thanks Icarus. Now I've got to get back to Kazefern Cliff and summon the dragon. See you 2 around." Yamako stated as she turned her back to them and closed her eyes.

Yamako began to concentrate and within seconds her eyes flew open and a Gateway leading to Kazefern Cliff opened in front of her. Yamako smirked and quickly began walking through. Drakoe and Icarus roared and squawked loudly at her retreating form just before the tear closed behind her. Soon she was standing in front of Kazefern Cliff and she simply leaned up against a cliff wall with her arms crossed firmly over her chest and waited for Kumori to arrive with the other Dragon Balls. For 3 days she stood unmoving with her eyes closed as she waited for Kumori to show.

Author's Note: Alright Kumori and Yamako have collected all of the Dragon Balls and now Yamako just has to wait for Kumori to get back to Kazefern Cliff. What will happen when they summon the dragon? Will they be able to wish Goku and Vegeta back to life even though they've died before? The answer next chapter. Remember to review!
