The Briefs Family, the Ox Family, and friends of both all walk together through town. Tights looks at Goku, who rides on the Ox King's shoulder with ChiChi, with a thoughtful gaze. He points at himself after noticing her staring.

"Is there a bug on me or something?"

"No, I just wonder what's going on in that little head of yours."

Launch growls at Goku as she shakes a fist at him smoking a cigarette.

"A bullet is about to be lodged in that skull of his! Losin' th' match in a draw! I lost all th' money I made bettin' on ya! What rotten luck to be right where I started!"

Goku pats his stomach as the threat merely goes over his head.

"All I can think about is food! I'm starving after all that fighting!"

As if on command, his stomach rumbles loudly enough to startle the oldest sister. Roshi holds up a check with a big grin on his face, though Starswirl rolls his eyes.

"Well the winner of the tournament was gracious enough to hand me the money from his victory!~ Be sure to thank Mr. Chun when you see him at the next tournament."

"Don't let the wind blow it out of your hand again. I won't return it a second time."

Mark smiles with confidence as he pumps a fist and Yamcha raises a hand in a clawing gesture.

"That guy was something else, but I can tell I can keep up with him if I train more!"

"Not to mention that Gebo guy made me look like a chump! I gotta get back at him quick!"

Mark then stumbles back as Bulma pulls on his ear with a huff.

"Don't you even think about it! I let you train all that time and let you ignore your hot girlfriend for far too long! We're eating and then going home for a date and that is final!"

ChiChi whines at Yamcha as she hops off the Ox King and onto Yamcha's back.

"You said you would take a break from training too! You made a promise, remember?"

Panchy giggles watching the scene as she walks with Bikini.

"Oh, that's right! Bikini the school year is about to start! You're so confident now, would you like to go back?"

"School is already starting again? I nearly forgot all about it..."

Krillin casually speaks up walking ahead of the group with Oolong.

"But aren't you already pretty smart? You taught me and Goku all kinds of dumb math and science!"

"I knew she was as much of an egghead as the rest of her family."

Dr. Briefs lets out a puff of smoke from his cigarette as he watches the party with a heartfelt smile.

"Why don't we all find a place to eat first? I must say I'm quite famished myself after all the excitement from today."

As everyone agrees, Goku looks up to the sky rubbing where his tail used to be. Starswirl notices this and points to the clouds above.

"You won't see it now what with Bikini turning it back to noon, but the moon is back already, no need to gather the Dragon Balls."

Goku doesn't look to his mentor, but responds with soft sense of regret.

"Can we really not bring Grandpa back?"

Starswirl sighs and reveals his horn to display the magical aura.

"Magic of all but one kind comes at a price. When it comes to the Dragon Balls, they have rules instead of prices. The only thing we can do is move on and learn from our experiences."

Goku stares at the sky in silence until the group arrives at a famous restaurant affiliated with the Budokai Tenkaichi. Though one order is enough for everyone present, Goku swallows meal after meal without any breaks in between, surprising those not yet quite accustomed to his diet. Dr. Briefs watches along with Tights who leans back in slight terror.

"Ho ho! Look at him go! It makes sense though considering how much energy he seems to have!"

"D-Does he even taste the food...?"

Bulma and Oolong roll their eyes at his lack of table manners long since accustomed to him.

"Ever the gross slob just pigging out."

"Hey! Don't compare him to me! Even I have my limits!"

Krillin glances his way while mumbling to Bikini.

"You'd think I'd be used to this by now but it always amaze me how much he can eat, right Bikini? ... Bikini?"

Krillin nearly falls out of his chair when he turns to see Bikini eating just as fiercely as Goku. Panchy pats her back gently.

"Try to chew your food, dear. Your food isn't going anywhere!~"

Mark stares in awe of this with sweat beading down his brow.

"She's just as bad as he is..."

Yamcha and the Ox King look down at their plates with a gulp.

"I-I get that eating healthy is part of building a strong body but they're about to make our wallets weak..."

"Then it's a good thing Master Roshi is paying for us, or else we might've been in trouble. I only brought enough money for the flight back with some souvenirs..."

The Turtle Hermit pales seeing each new order for ths two as less money for him to use later on for himself. He hangs his head in quiet despair.

"M-Maybe they'll only eat just enough for me to get that magazine I saw earlier...?"

Starswirl scoffs and takes a sip of his tea, the only thing he ordered this whole meal.

"You and I both know that Goku could eat for hours on end... I do wonder what Bikini is trying to do though. You think she is competing with him again?"

"I don't think my wallet could take something like that... Ugh."

When all are finished, Bikini stuffed after five meals while Goku emptied the restaurant with room to spare. Roshi stares at the bill with a ghastly gazes hidden behind his shades.

"All my prize money... Gone."

Starswirl pats his shoulder sighing contently.

"Launch would just hold you hostage for it. Ready to go home?"

The Turtle Hermit gives a reluctant nod before paying the food. As the party leave, they're met with Gebo and Gero, the two waiting for them. Gebo makes his way over using a crutch, as his broken leg sits in a cast.

"Are you all leaving now?"

Dr. Briefs nods thumbing to his family.

"Back to West City for us. What about you two?"

Bulma leans forward speaking in a accusing tone.

"You're still after Goku's life, right?"

Gebo shakes his head smirking.

"No. Quite the opposite. We have come with a warning. My father and I were apart of the Red Ribbon Army. As of three hours ago we have resigned from their organization."

Gero huffs rolling his eyes.

"The Red Ribbon Army took interest in this tournament. They'll be after both Goku and Bikini for their unique abilities. Normally I would gladly dissect the boy myself but things have changed."

Goku points at himself tilting his head.

"What's dissect mean?"

Gero's eye twitches as he scowls at him.

"It means to study closely, you uneducated monkey. This is all the help you'll recieve from us so be grateful. Gebo!"

The old scientist and his son nod to the group before they start to make their leave. Starswirl glances over to his students.

"The time to part ways has come, you three. What will you do?"

Krillin steps forward adjusting his belt.

"I'm gonna stay with you! If that's okay...! I want to train even harder now that I know the results!"

Bikini steps back and looks to her family.

"I... I should go back home. If the Red Ribbon Army is coming after us, I should at least be sure my family is safe, especially if they're after me."

Goku looks between the Turtle School and the Briefs Family. He then makes his way over to the Briefs with a bounce in his step.

"I'm a bodyguard! Protecting Bikini and Bulma is what I'm supposed to do!"

Though heartfelt, Bulma leans close to her younger sister with a whisper.

"Did we ever tell him that was just for the Dragon Balls?"

Bikini whispers back with a knowing pout.

"Are you saying you don't want Goku around when we could be attacked now?"

Bulma mulls it over but shakes her head with a smile.

"We've plenty of room, and hey! In a few months, the Dragon Balls regain their power!"

Goku gives a big grin then and cheers as he hops up and down.

"Then I can find Grandpa's Four Star again!"

Dr. Briefs rubs his neck with a smoky sigh.

"And I thought Mark was an energetic fellow... Ah well. This should lead to some inspiration anyways. Let's go home everyone!"

After fond farewells all around, each group made for their homes, Goku surprising most the Briefs with his Nimbus Cloud. Panchy curiously looks it over before putting her hand through it.

"Oh my! It's so soft that my hand goes right through it. How ever do you stand on that thing, Son?"

Goku shrugs plainly.

"Master Starswirl said only pure hearts can ride it. Me and Bikini can get on it!"

Bulma pinches his cheek to correct him.

"Bikini and I. Sheesh, we really should put you into school..."

Tights clicks her tongue as puts her hands through it.

"Flying in an aircraft is one thing, but I kinda wanted to fly on a cloud, I bet it beats flying using jet boots."

Dr. Briefs snaps his fingers at that.

"Jet Boots! Of course! Mark, my boy! You'll be free for some testing, yes?"

Mark pales but nods as Oolong snickers at his reaction.

"S-Sure thing, sir...!"

"Try not to fly into any mountains when you're airborne, Mark!"

Bikini hops onto the Nimbus as Goku sits on her lap.

"The Nimbus is pretty fast too! We'll lead the way everyone!~"

With that, Goku and Bikini lead the party back to their home in West City. Dr. Briefs gasping at the sheer speed as he flies their personal plane home.

"Things are definitely going to be different when we get home..."

An explosion sounds throughout the bustling noise of West City. Smoke billows out from a flaming police car as an officer uses all his strength to drag two of his fellow unconscious officers from the flaming vehicle.

"There's no way out! Surrender now while you still can!"

Another police officer shouts through a speaker before he takes cover from a volley of bullets. Narrowly escaping death, he stews in a mix of panic and anger as he hears the criminals taunting him from cover.

"We're the ones in control here, not you!"

"Just let us walk outta here already! You're outgunned, man!"

"Plus there's more of us in the back just cleaning house in this bank! Do they pay you enough to die?!"

"We already blew one car to Hell, might as well do the same for yours, huh?!"

The masked miscreants all laugh in a jeering manner before unloading more hot lead upon the police car. However, the bullets freeze right before they can strike the car. Before the bewildered criminals could respond, a red blur strikes them all in one swing, destroying their guns at once.

A caped girl wearing a sharp horned helmet lands in between the two forces, the horn glowing with a golden aura that surrounds the fired bullets, which too soon fall to the ground motionless.

"Evil doers beware! The Equestria Girl is here!~ And I'm not alone!"

Landing next to her holding a red staff from in his hand, a masked boy in a stylized gi fitted with the character of the Turtle on his chest appears, his mouth visible to show a wide grin.

"It's me, Gok- er... The Saiyaman! Yeah!"

Together, they advance upon the enemy, knocking them out cold faster than the human eye could register! To the officer, these two costumed kids moved at a near instant before the bank robbers suddenly fell to the ground. Stunned by the sheer scene before him, he calls out on his speaker.

"J-Just what was that!? Y-Y-You two! What do you think you're doing?!"

Saiyaman looks back scratching his cheek.

"Stopping bad guys? Are there more?"

"They said there were more but leave it-!"

The officer is cut off by Equestria Girl, who thumbs to herself.

"To us! We'll get things settled in no time! Remember the plan, Saiyaman!"

The boy nods and the two speed off into the bank. Inside, Equestria Girl seemingly vanishes along with the bo staff, as Saiyaman alone is seen standing off against a large group of armed men. A group of hostages all sit with their backs against the wall, cowering in fear for their lives, at least until Saiyaman makes himself known.

"Hey, you bullies! Try using your toys on me if you feel like fighting someone!"

The masked thugs all laugh at the sheer size of this miniature hero. One lanky man obliges as he aims at the boy.

"Kids these days are reading too many comic books! I bet those idiots up ahead let you in just to make us -!"

He fires yet his breath is stolen away as the Saiyaman does the unthinkable. His small arms move at unparalleled speeds, catching the bullets with his bare gloved hands, which he drops to the ground snickering.

"L-Laugh...?!"

"I'll be the one laughing here! Now!"

At the center of the room, Equestria Girl uses her horn to disarm the thugs of their weapons, and tosses the staff to Saiyaman. Swing by swing from his staff, and punch after punch with her fists, the room is cleared out by the duo in but a few minutes. Equestria Girl makes her way to the hostages when the men are down.

"Is anyone hurt? I can heal minor injuries!"

An old man raises a hand as he gestures to a bleeding woman at his side.

"She was shot in the leg... Oh, thank you both! Their leader is in my office! That door just over there! Please, get rid of him!"

Saiyaman hurries on ahead shouting with an excited breath.

"You help them I wanna fight their leader!"

Equestria Girl sighs as she begins closing the wound.

"I figured you would..."

Saiyaman breaks through the doors with a flying kick. He lands on the desk in front of a smiling large beastman, a scar down his eye and bulging muscles pronounced beyond the thick fur, the wolf picks his teeth with his claws as he remains in his seat.

"You're just a pint-sized rodent... But I heard how you handled my guys."

He stands and towers over the hero raising a hand smash him into pieces.

"Don't think I'm as easy to take on like them!"

He brings it down and breaks the desk in two with such force that each end is sent into the air. Saiyaman snickers having dodged the attack by merely jumping in time, grabbing both ends of the airborne desk, and slamming them together with the wolf man's head in between.

"A-Agh! Wh-What th-?"

He stumbles back as his neck extends to the point of almost flying from his torso, jaw nearly falling out his mouth as his eyes bulge out of his head, all from a hook by the tiny hero. Saiyaman sends an elbow to the chest forcing the beastman back into a wall with little to no air in his lungs.

"What's wrong? I thought you were warming up? Are you tired already?"

Though the wolf man angrily snarls at what he thought to be an insult, the boy speaks in honesty, standing in front of him with his head tilted to the side.

"Oh well. Off to jail with you."

The wolf man lunges forth with a knife pulled from his pocket in one fluid motion!

"Don't get cocky you bastard!"

He is thrown through the bank walls, and lands into the side of a police car outside, scaring many of the officers at the abrupt crash. One gasps as they look on in shock.

"H-Hey, this is Klaw! His gang's been robbing high end banks across the country...! Who could beat a monster like this?!"

Equestria Girl and Saiyaman stand atop a building out of sight. She takes off her helmet and lets out a sigh of content.

"There! And on time for lunch to be over too."

Bikini looks over to Goku, who stares at her expectantly after taking his mask off. She responds with a playful roll of her eyes

"Okay, okay, we'll get something for you to eat! Then you'll sneak out the back!"

"Yahoo!~"

He jumps high into the air cheering loudly. Bikini yelps as she can hear the police down below take notice of them.

"Goku, quiet! Nimbus!"

She summons the golden cloud and is quick to snatch the monkey boy out of the air as they fly off. Her horn flashes and her costume is replaced with school uniform. Goku pats his stomach with drool coming down his mouth.

"School pizza...! We are going to your school right?"

Bikini rolls her eyes chuckling at his ever vacuous stomach.

"Yes, we're going to school, but you're headed home right after that!"

Though Bikini is careful to fly at a high altitude, the Flying Nimbus' speed allows them to make it back to Capsule Corporation in mere moments, where a genial Dr. Briefs waits for them on the lawn.

"Seems you were just a bit reckless today! I got a call about your misbehavior, again."

She hops off of the Nimbus with Goku frowning at the news.

"M-Misbehavior? What did I do this time? Wait-! Goku! Did you get caught sneaking out again?!"

Goku just rocks back and forth innocently.

"I spun that big guy in the red pants around a bunch of times!"

She groans upon this revelation.

"Now it makes sense why we had a free period, you were the one that threw Mr. Phillis Edd through the wall! I wondered what was going on!"

Dr. Briefs chuckles at them both and holds out a device with a capsule on top.

"Well, well, it isn't like we're worried about your behavior. Besides, I already took you out of that school today!"

Goku sniffs the old man's hand looking over his offering. Bikini however is too flabbergasted by his casual reveal.

"What!? Wh-Why? Wasn't it one of the most prestigious schools in the world?"

Dr. Briefs merely shrugs.

"I get calls about you excelling in everything from sports to academics, then calls about your tardiness and misconduct by sneaking Goku in constantly, and honestly I would rather not being called at all. Therefore, the simple solution is to just have you stop going at all!"

She gasps before shouting loudly enough that the hair on her adoptive father is blown back.

"What kind of a solution is that?!"

He only grins in return as Goku takes the capsule from him.

"A simple one! Not to mention, aren't you going on another adventure soon?"

Before she can respond, Goku opens the capsule only for a large collection of dirty magazines to fly out all over the yard. Dr. Briefs rubs his neck as he starts picking each issue up in a haste.

"O-Oh! Wrong capsule! I meant to hand you both an prototype food capsule that can hold weeks worth of food instead of just a few days."

Bikini picks a few up handing a few over to him raising a brow.

"Daddy, how come Mom isn't in any of these? I thought you were only allowed to have pictures of her dressed like this! Did you marry all these girls too?"

Dr. Briefs pales for a moment.

"Of course not! I'm just... Holding these for some busy men that work with me! Why do you think the girls change every month?"

Unaware of the poor lie, Bikini changes her tune from suspicious to admiring her father.

"Oh! You're a nice man! But what is that other thing? It looks like a Dragon Radar!"

He nods and trades the magazines for the device.

"It is! The difference with this one is that it can track the other Radar as well, and it will always show up, that way no matter where you are you can always come home."

Goku looks around then scratching his head.

"Where's Bulma or Mark? Did they go out again?"

Dr. Briefs sighs with a shrug.

"She kicked the poor boy out. Seems he picked training over her, even though he I heard him pleading otherwise, but I'm sure they'll be fine. Teenagers are always quite dramatic."

Bikini's horn glows before a new capsule comes flying out from the building.

"I found the food capsule! You keep it in the same cabinet with your photos of naked ladies!"

Dr. Briefs rubs his neck chuckling.

"Well before you go all over the world again, you should eat something, that way Goku doesn't burn through the entire capsule!"

Panchy giggles as she pulls at Goku's cheeks playfully as he sits at the dining table.

"Oh you always look so adorable when your full! Would you like me to make you anything else?"

Goku, oblivious to the adult's pampering and teasing, happily chirps as he pats his belly.

"Can I have more of that spicy chicken stuff you make? It's so good!"

She nods with an ecstatic pose.

"For my little hero, of course I can!"

Bikini sits at the table as well with Tights watching the news on TV. Tights pointing at the screen as it shows the bank robbery today.

"I still can hardly believe how strong you've gotten! I still remember when you were just a little baby that had to learn to crawl cause you kept floating everywhere... Ah, memories."

Bikini blushes at the statement and replies annoyed.

"That was a long time ago... Hey, do you want to come with us, Tights? Maybe finding the Dragon Balls can help with your books?"

Tights cups her chin as she closes her eyes in thought.

"Usually I write sci-fi stuff... But I did start with a fantasy novel that put me on the map! After all, raising you was an adventure on it's own. Why not?"

Tights grins and flicks her younger sister's nose with a playful sneer.

"Besides, I gotta watch out for my unruly delinquent baby sis!~"

"Ugh, I am VERY well-behaved!"

Tights then looks over to Goku, the young boy gobbling down another meal placed down by Panchy.

"I also have to keep an eye on her pet monkey! You're way too strong for your own good, you know?"

"I am? I don't think I can blow up the moon, not after you told me how big it actually is!"

Tights rolls her eyes at his statement.

"See, this is why Dad should've put you through school instead of Bikini. I guess I'll have to educate you through this journey."

Goku groans as he swallows down a huge mouthful of rice and chicken.

"Not more book stuff...! Can I at least train first?"

"For a kid strong enough to break entire buildings if he hits it just right, you sure whine like a baby!~ I won't stop you from training though..."

Goku nods accepting this compromise before everyone's attention is caught by the television as Bikini shouts at it.

"Look! There's Mark!"

Mark stands with sunglasses on and a serious expression next to a beautiful dark haired girl in a sparkling outfit. A rosy red blouse with white stripes that go down a blue star spangled skirt with glittering heels. Tights perks up with a smile of adoration as she recognizes the girl.

"Hey I know her! She's a new star idol named Hoshina! I knew she'd be starting a tour soon but I didn't think Mark would be interested! How'd he even get that close to her?"

Bulma storms in and turns the television off with the remote.

"Because he got a job as her bodyguard! The absolute nerve of that... That... Neanderthal! How dare he pick some fancy hussie over me?!"

Bikini sweats slightly at the accusation raising her hands in a reassuring gesture.

"M-Maybe he just wanted to get a career and this was his lucky break...? I-I mean he had to get a job sometime, right?"

Tights nods as Panchy only rubs her cheek caught in her own world.

"It isn't like you two made the perfect couple to begin with. Friends? Definitely, even I liked the guy a little, but..."

"Oh, I knew he'd run for the hills into the arms of another woman. Bulma is just too fierce for most boys."

The matriarch of the Briefs Family turns to Goku patting his head.

"Oh! You're very brave, Son! Won't you be Bulma's boyfriend?"

Much to the collective shock at their mother's forwardness, Goku's response shocks them further, he responds in the usual casual cadence to such things.

"I'm already her boyfriend, aren't I? I carry stuff for her all the time and have to walk around with her a lot lately."

Bulma near glides across the room just to strike at his skull with a snarling red face.

"That doesn't mean your my boyfriend! Boyfriends kiss, and go on dates, and much much more I don't feel like telling you about!"

Goku rubs his noggin with a whine as the other girls laugh. Tights looks out the window to the evening Sun.

"Yeah, an adventure is what I need right now... I'll go get my things! I bet we won't have to pack for much with you two being as powerful as you are."

The Ox King stumbles back with a huff as he's forced onto his knee. He uses his axe as a crutch to keep himself off the ground as he feels his eyes growing heavy.

"Just... Just what are you after? If it's treasure then you can have it! All of it! Ple-Please...!"

He reaches out to her daughter ensnared in the hold of a vile demon. A bald short imp wearing dark robes smiles with bright fangs as he holds ChiChi by her neck.

"You want your daughter's life? Hand over your Dragon Ball! I know you have one!"

The Ox King winces as he shakes his head.

"I can't... I don't have it anymore! A wish was granted nearly a year ago...!"

The demon snorts before he uses a foul energy on ChiChi. The Ox King can only gasp as he watches his darling daughter turn into a small kitten. The imp holds her out for a moment by the scruff.

"Take a good look at her, O Great Ox King! If you want your beloved daughter, the only thing worth anything in this gaudy tasteless castle to return to normal? You'll use any method to gather the Dragon Balls and return here to me!"

He walks past the trembling the Ox King keeping the Kitten ChiChi close in a mockingly gentle hold as he strokes her back.

"I'll treat her with the utmost care until then. That way you'll only have to worry about collecting the Dragon Balls. I heard you sent your pet wolf to go train with the Turtle Hermit... You'll need all the help you can get. Now get going. Your new king, Garlic Jr., commands you."

With great despair and heavy reluctance, the Ox King weakly makes his desperate leave from his home, leaving Garlic Jr. to wander his home unhampered.

"That fool doesn't even know where he put his home! The mountain here was made explicitly to act as a lock, and though he once had a magical barrier of fire, his mountain would have caught fire anyways due to its occupant below...! Soon, I will have an army of demons! No one... Not even Kami will be able to stop me now!"

Garlic Jr. cackles madly as he finds the room he sought out. A room ChiChi had never seen before, hidden through magic as a door appears on a the face of an unassuming wall, a room where only a large crystal ball shows a giant cauldron. Flames burn furiously under it as the lid over is growing holes.

Behind those holes are creatures that bring utter terror to the poor princess' heart. All she can do is pray for her father, for Yamcha, for anyone to save her and defeat this terrible villain...
