Hello everyone. So I like to start off by saying that while some of our heroes are off to Namek, a mini arc will take place. It will only be around three or four chapters long. Originally it was meant to be the arc after Namek however after thinking about it some more I realised it makes much more sense to have it now. Not quite ready to reveal it yet so let's enjoy this chapter first.
Everyone made their way to Kame house, none of them however said anything. The battle had worn them all out. Not to mention all the friends that had been lost. It was a hard pill to swallow, yet Gohan had a small glimmer of hope.
"So what do we do next?" Gohan asked as he was comforted by his father.
"Honestly I don't think any of us know." Goku replied as they arrived at their destination. Bulma was the first out of the house, followed by a one arm Tien.
"What happened?" Bulma asked as everyone put their heads down.
"We lost Diana, and Piccolo." Krillin whispered. Bulma and Tien stood, shocked at this revelation.
"So that means..."
"We can't wish any of them back." Tien said as he punched the ground. "Damn it! I failed you Chiaotzu, I'm a terrible friend."
"You can't blame yourself." Batman butted in. "We all knew the risks when we signed up. None of us can bring them back."
"You see that's where your wrong!" A voice telepathically called out. Everyone jumped up scared with the exception of Goku, who just laughed.
"Don't worry guys that's just King Kai, he's a friend. Hey King Kai, what did you mean by we were wrong?" Goku asked.
"I mean there is a way to save all of your friends." Everyone's eyes shot up when that piece of information was revealed. "However you lot must do something for me."
"What's that?"
"I believe that Vegeta is heading to a planet called Namek. It's the home of the Namekian's, Piccolo's race. I spoke to the elder Namekian, and he says that if you stop Vegeta. He will let you use the dragon balls." Everyone with the exception of Batman smiled.
"That means Chiaotzu can be wished back as well." Tien said as he hugged Krillin.
"Hey easy there Tien, still a bit sore." Krillin replied as they laughed together.
"Listen there's one more thing." King Kai telepathically shouted. Everyone then fell silent. "Vegeta is on his way right now, so if you want to have a shot at this you need to leave ASAP. Listen I got to go, good luck everyone." Everybody walked into Kame house. Batman, Superman and flash got acquainted with those they had not met before. Finally discussing what to do next.
"Look I wanna save everyone, but where are we going to find a spaceship that can fit all of us?" Flash asked.
"My father created one we can just use his." Bulma said.
"What's the catch?" Batman asked. The blue haired women then sighed.
"Well there's two problems. Firstly there's only enough seats for three people, meaning not all of us are going. Secondly it doesn't have an engine, and our team are years from developing one."
"So what your saying is that we are effectively stuck!" Tien frustratingly said. Everyone was thinking of a solution, until superman stepped up.
"Wait, remember how I told you I was sent to earth as a baby?" He yelled as everyone nodded. "Well I still have the pod that took me. We can just use the engine in that to take us."
"Well that's better than nothing, so who's going?" Bulma asked.
"I can go..." Goku tried to say, before feeling a huge burst of pain in his ribs.
"Oh no. You and Superman are obviously in no condition to travel, let alone take on Vegeta again."
"I'm fine Bul..." Yet again Goku cried out in pain.
"Now who is actually going to go." Everyone thought about it for a second, until flash stood up.
"I think I should go. If I can find a way to increase my speed. Vegeta will be no problem." Flash explained.
"I think I should go to!" Krillin shouted, which suprised everyone.
"You sure buddy?" Goku asked as his best friend started to breath heavily.
"Yeah, I need to do this!"
"Alright now that just leaves one more seat, I would go myself. However I don't think that would accomplish anything." Bulma said as everyone looked at each other. Gohan sat to himself hearing everyone talking but himself. Anger started to build up in the half Saiyan. The images of Piccolo's dead body and Nappas laughing face burned in his mind. Eventually he snapped.
"Well if Tien can't go I could always..." Master Roshi explained before being cut off by Gohan.
"I'm going." He whispered. Everyone stopped and looked at the boy, not knowing what to think. "I want to go dad!"
"Oh no your not!" A voice yelled out. Everyone looked to see a very angry women in the doorway.
"Uh oh." Chi Chi stormed into the room. No one said anything, not wanting to upset her.
"You have already missed a years worth of studying. You are not going to go and risk your life for a man who kidnapped you."
"Mr Piccolo sacrificed his life for me, I am not going to abandon him like that!"
"You are not going and that's final!"
"Listen to your mother kid." Batman said as he got up and knelt in front of Gohan. "You are an remarkable young man, but this is a fight you don't need to take part in."
"What? You think just because I'm a kid I can't fight? No I am going to go to Namek, and save my friend." Gohan replied.
"Goku do something!" Chi Chi yelled.
"I'm sorry Chi Chi, I think that Gohan should go." Goku whispered, hoping his wife wouldn't get too mad at him. To his surprise though she just smiled.
"O.k then, Gohan can go." No one could quite believe what they had just heard.
"Really?"
"Yes, of course you can go baby." Chi Chi walked outside as finally someone else spoke.
"Alright then that settles it. If you bring me the engine as soon as possible, then we should be ready. Meet at Capsule Corp headquarters by noon tomorrow." Bulma explained as everyone started to leave.
"Flash, meet me at the cave. I have something I think can help you." Batman said. Flash nodded as he ran off in the distance. Eventually everyone left with the exception of those who lived at Kame house, Bulma and Batman. "I hope this plan of yours works Bulma."
"I hope so too Bruce. I hope so too." Bulma replied as they both went there separate ways.

This had been one hell of a day for Clark. When he woke up in the morning, Clark was an outcast. Alone in a world were no one was like him. Now though, there were people left, right and centre like him. People with extraordinary abilities. However soon Clark remembered what had happened with Vegeta. How many more hidden abilities did he have? And how many could be potentially dangerous?
The kryptonian had finally arrived home. He was greeted by his adopted parents, who ran towards and hugged him.
"Clark are you well? What happened?" Martha questioned as Clark laughed.
"I'm fine mum. Actually I'm better than fine." Clark replied. Jonathan and Martha were confused by this.
"What do you mean Clark?" Jonathan asked his son.
"I found others like me, people with special powers." At first the parents of Clark Kent were shocked too say the least. With time though they were more accepting of this revelation.
"That's wonderful Clark."
"Yeah, listen I can't stay long, don't wait up for me." Clark ran into the shed. Where he looked for the engine to his pod. Out of nowhere the AI of Jor El popped up. "Jeez don't scare me like that."
"Kal, I am glad to see you in one piece. Though I must ask what is it your doing?" Jor El asked.
"I'm trying to disconnect the engine so we can put it into another ship." Clark replied.
"Where and why are you going?"
"I think it's to a planet called Namek. I found new friends while fighting the Saiyans. Some of their comrades didn't make it though, so we're going to Namek. Finding some dragon balls I think they're called." Jor El was displeased.
"Kal, dragon balls are a myth." Superman shook his head.
"No they're real. I even talked to someone called King Kai about it." Jor El was left stunned.
"You spoke with a Kai?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Kal, the Kai's are basically gods. They create life throughout the universe. Speaking to a Kai is one of the greatest honours in the entire universe." Suddenly the magnitude of what had happened started to sink in for Clark.
"Wow I never realised." Clark was trying to take the engine out with the help of his father. Until he noticed a grey cube inside. "What's this."
"Wait don't touch that." The kryptonian instantly moved his hand away. "That's called a phantom drive. It creates one singularity that connects to a kryptonian prison called the phantom zone. We have never tested it out on a planets surface before. Not even I know what it can do to this planet."
"Alright never touch the phantom drive, got it." Clark finished disabling the engine and walked outside, where he was confronted by Jonathan.
"Listen Clark, we need to talk." Jonathan said.
"Look dad I really got to go, speak to you later." In a flash the kryptonian flew off into the distance. Leaving his father with his feet firmly on the ground.
.
Bruce didn't really know how he was feeling. On one hand he was glad that Vegeta had been defeated. On the other it was almost scary the amount of people with extraordinary abilities popping up. The billionaire kept pondering what would happen if they were all to go rogue. Who would be able to stop them? Perhaps he was just being paranoid, they did seem like go people. Yet you could never be too cautious.
Bruce finnaly arrived at the cave, it was now night and very late. However both Alfred and Dick were still down. As he got out of the batwing Bruce was hugged by Dick.
"I'm fine Dick, don't worry about me." Bruce said as his adoptive son let go.
"I'm sorry, I already lost one father, just couldn't imagine loosing another." Dick replied. For the first time in a while, Batman actually smiled.
"I also want to say sorry." Dick was very suprised when he heard this. "For the last year I have treated you horribly, today that changes. You want to help me?"
"Yes!"
"Then I will train you. Be warned though you do what I say when I say it. And if you disobey me once then your fired." The boys eyes shot up as he heard this.
"Thank you!"
"Now get up to bed, it's past your bedtime." Dick ran upstairs exited. Alfred walk towards the playboy with a frown.
"Sir, are you sure it's wise to involve master Grayson?" Alfred asked. Bruce just sat next to the computer.
"I don't know anymore Alfred." Bruce replied.
"What do you mean?"
"Ever since my parents, I have pledged myself to stopping crime. I go out every night to keep the streets safe. Now I realise that crime doesn't come from the streets. It comes from the sky." Suddenly the two were joined by the flash. Though as he ran inside the alarms went off, Barry had two taser guns pointed at him. "Computer override one, nine, three, nine." The alarms instantly stopped as Barry sighed one relief.
"Wow you have a lot of stuff in here. Batsuit, Batcomputer, batmobile. Wonder what else you have? Batphone? Batspray? What about a bat credit card?" Barry joked.
"Allen, that has to be the stupidest idea I have ever heard." Bruce replied. "Now let me show you the reason I called you here." The billionaire got up and walked into another room. He was soon followed by the speedster, who stared in awe at what batman showed him.
"Is that?"
"Yes a hypersonic treadmill. I was originally going to give it to you to train for the Saiyans. However it was only completed three days ago." Barry was lost for words as he shook Bruce's hand.
"Why?" The playboy sighed when he heard that question.
"If you are going to beat Vegeta, your going to have to get faster. I just hope that you can get fast enough in such a short amount of time."
"Alright I'm going to give Bulma this, she can fit it in the ship." In a flash Barry had disappeared. Bruce walked towards the computer and changed the screen. Alfred looked in shocked as he saw a live feed of Flash running with the treadmill.
"Sir you bugged the treadmill?" Alfred questioned his employer.
"I have to know more about them." Batman replied.
"What for?"
"Insurance."
.
The next day everyone was gathered at Capsule Corp. Bulma was making the final preparations as they were waiting on Gohan.
"All right everyone we are good to go!" Bulma yelled as a door opened to a smiling Chi Chi. With her was a very depressed and funny looking Gohan.
"Hey kid, what's with the outfit?" Flash asked.
"If my little Gohan is going to another planet then I want him to look as smart as possible." Chi Chi said. Everyone else besides Batman tried to hold their laughter in. "Now Gohan, you stay close to Krillin and Flash at all times, do you understand?"
F"Yes mum, I will." Gohan bitterly replied as he joined the other two on the ship. All three said their final goodbyes as the door closed. The flash put the coordinates that Bulma gave him and they set off into space, an adventure awaited them.

So that's a wrap. Question: I made two batman references in this chapter, can you guess them?
Review time!
Berrus Sama: Ok let's go through these.
1: it's an idea I considering.
2: I have no plans to have the teen titans.
3: Yeah I was thinking something like that. Can't say anymore though.
4: Frieza definitely has run ins with the green lanterns.
5: sorry I tried running it through a translator but I don't understand the question.
6: I have got some ways of getting around this problem.
Dark flacon: Yeah thanks for understanding. Also I'm glad that I can suprise a few of you with these changes. I don't think that they will change costumes unless it affects the story. Mainly because it would just be a bit pointless.
Help someone: Unfortunately no ghost Nappa.
Coronadomantes: thank you.
Guest 1: thank you
Guest 2: thanks, again I'm happy I am able to suprise you all. Yeah I do have a badass moment coming for Tien.
Pr0dz: Well they only fight if they have to. This is what I love about the crossover. Both these teams protect the planet. But in two completely different ways. If you don't like it then that's fine. If everyone liked everything then the world would be a very boring place.
