A group of 5 friends sat around a table on a balcony, set out with foods and drinks, in the Capsule Corp. vicinity. Bulma Brief, who lived at the Capsule Corporation had invited her boyfriend Yamcha, her best friend Chi Chi, another good friend Krillin and Krillins pretty, blue haired girlfriend, Marron, over for lunch.
Bulma had a head of beautiful blue hair, like Marron, which shone under the sun, as she laughed at Krillin, telling a joke, her head bobbing cutely. Yamcha put an arm around Bulma, and smiled; he had the perfect girlfriend. Chi Chi looked at Bulma, feeling a little envious... Bulma had such a sweet boyfriend, who would do anything for her, yet, Chi Chi, remained alone. Chi Chi watched as Yamcha and Bulma whispered to each other, Bulma giggling every now and again, and she watched as Krillin continued to tell jokes to his air head girlfriend, who was giggling insanely. Chi Chi sighed, but then she smiled; at least she had these guys as her good friends, she didn't know what she would do without them.

Krillin searched his head for another joke, as his girlfriend expectantly looked at him, beautiful blue eyes making him melt. I won't disappoint you Marron, he thought, as he started telling a joke about 'airline food'. Bulma stopped her whispering with Yamcha and turned to Chi Chi, apologising for leaving her out. Chi Chi just smiled, taking a bite out of the sandwich she had prepared for herself. Krillin also turned his attention to Chi Chi, and started talking to her, leaving Marron to amuse herself. Now, this was a rather large task for Marron, so she decided to do what she does best... FLIRT... WITH YAMCHA! Marron started rubbing his leg with her own leg, smiling seductively at him. Yamcha swallowed hard, and turned away from the gaze, too look at anything but that vixen! Finally, after the groups long lunch, it was time for Yamcha, Krillin and Marron to depart. Bulma hugged Yamcha and he kissed her head in reply, waving goodbye to Chi Chi and the others. Marron blew him a kiss, batting her eye lashes slyly at him, from behind Krillin. Yamcha blushed bright red, and hurried off, Krillin and Marron following behind after they too, bid their farewell.

Chi Chi was going to stay at Bulmas house that night, not just because she didn't feel like going home, but to talk to Bulma one on one. Bulma wanted Chi Chi to stay with her as well, Chi Chi seemed subdued, she wasn't being her usual live wire self. Sure, Chi Chi her quiet side as well, but Bulma was her best friend, and she could just tell something was wrong. The girls made milkshakes and brought them up to Bulmas room, also taking up a stash of chocolates... How could they resist? They sat the drinks and chocolates on Bulmas bedside table, and got on Bulmas bed. Chi Chi was laying down and Bulma was leaning against the wall, with a pillow propped up behind her. Bulma looked down at Chi Chi and frowned; Chi Chi looked so... Put out. Bulma grabbed a pillow from her bed (She had about 12 pillows on it!) and hit Chi Chi playfully with it, grabbing Chi Chi's attention. "Off on another planet today Chi? Tell me if you see any SEXY aliens", Bulma teased, as she munched on a chocolate bar. Chi Chi managed a lopsided grin, and replied,"If only it was that easy Bulma". Chi Chi took a breath, and continued talking. "Bulma... I want a boyfriend! I want someone who will care for me as much as Yamcha cares for you", she said this, looking hopefully up at Bulma. Bulma choked on her chocolate bar.. OF COURSE that's what was wrong, Bulma thought, composing herself. "Hey, you can have mine", Bulma joked, nudging Chi Chi with her foot. Chi Chi giggled and she grabbed a pillow, hitting Bulma over the head with it.
"I'm being serious", Chi Chi said, dodging an incoming pillow which was thrown by Bulma. Bulma smiled at Chi Chi, and said to her in a comforting voice,"Hey, I know Chi. You're great, and I know there is a guy out there, just WAITING to meet you! We can go out clubbing tomorrow night, and see what hotties we can pick up for you there"! Chi Chi grinned at Bulma, and threw another pillow at her, happy that she had such a great friend!

A group of men sat in a darkened room, around a circular table, deep in an intense and confidential meeting. Occasionally, a scantily dressed woman would come out with a tray of beverages for them, but these where the only intrusions through out the duration of the discussion. A sinister man arose from the meeting, an evil smirk plastered on his face, silencing everyone. Satisfied he had the full attention of the assembly, he began to talk in a deep, snarling voice. "So, it is settled", he began, turning his attention to 3 particular men in the assembly. "You three shall start travelling tonight, to the destination of what we desire. You shall travel by car, instead of flight, as not to draw attention to yourself. Once you reach the destination, you shall watch over the 'one thing' we need, to get our wish, and take it when the time is right. Meanwhile, some of the other men will be finding the dragon balls. Mess it up.. And it will mean your life", the sinister man spoke, an evil glint in his malicious, cold black eyes. There was silence in the assembly, which was only broken by a 'gulping' sound from one of the men who had been assigned to the mission. The tension was broken, when another of the men assigned to the mission stood up, to address the sinister man. He looked a great deal like the leader, minus the fact he was obviously younger, and had no beard. "We shall NOT fail you, 'BOSS', we shall get what we need at all costs. Nothing will stand in our way", he spoke in a deep, confident voice, sarcasm in his voice when he said 'BOSS'.
"For your own good, that better be the case", said the 'Boss', walking out of the room, an evil smirk still visible on his face.

Once everyone was sure that the 'Boss' was out of earshot, they began talking about the previous discussion more openly. The scantily dressed women came into the room, and took seats around the room, some on the laps of some of the men. Another girl came into the room, but she was clad in jeans, a white shirt, and an unbuttoned, denim vest, unlike the other women, in skimpy red dresses, with plunging necklines. She had sleek, shoulder length blond hair, and piercing blue eyes. She took a seat next to one of the men, who was assigned to the mission from the previous discussion; it was the man who had 'gulped' when the 'Boss' had referred to him and the 2 other men. "So, I guess your going then, huh", she said, roughly nudging the man in the arm. He glared at her, and nodded, rubbing his sore arm at the same time. "I'm coming to then", the woman declared, flicking her blond hair behind her shoulders. He wanted to protest, but knew better then that... His girlfriend was a real spitfire, and she would NOT take no for an answer.
"Fine, Eighteen", he replied to her, putting a hand to his head. The girl, Eighteen, smiled, rather pleased with herself, and went off to get the bags, which she had already packed for the travellers.
"Haha, that girl has you on a LEASH Radditz", a bald man stated mockingly, shaking a finger at the man known as Radditz.
"Shut up Nappa! Atleast I HAVE a lady friend! Maybe if you had some hair, you might have better luck", Radditz retorted, a few of the other people in the room laughing at Radditz's joke. Nappa stood up and grabbed Radditz by the top of his white shirt.
"I'm top of the ranks, and your just some weakling THIRD CLASS SHIT, trying to get to were I am! But your bottom class trash, and so is your fucking weak brother over there! I don't know WHY the 'Boss' would put his heir, Vegeta, with 2 thrid class scum bags like you", Nappa growled in Radditz's face, roughly shaking Radditz around. The confident man from before, known as Vegeta just glared at Nappa, and this was enough to scare the crud out of the huge Nappa. Vegeta was a fair bit shorter then most of the men in the room, at least a foot shorter then Nappa, with a tower of spiky black hair, and coal black eyes. Though he was shortest, he was by far the strongest, excluding the boss, and he had a lot of respect. "Drop him, fool", was all Vegeta had to say, and this request was quickly met. "We leave now", Vegeta said calmly, seeing that Eighteen had returned, with all 4 of the their bags. Radditz, and his younger brother smiled smuggly at Nappa, and followed Vegeta and Eighteen out the door.
