Pearl's Adventures in the Xenoverse

Chapter 1: A Test Passed and a Saiyan Defeated

Pearl wasn't your typical Majin. Most Majins were brightly colorful and always looking for the next meal to eat or game to play. Pearl however, wasn't. She had dark grey skin, purple eyes and markings on her face, and a more…reserved personality she liked to think. Most people regarded Majins as being fun to be around, but having all the brainpower as a gumball. While Pearl could be fun when she wanted to be, she was more intelligent than…almost every other Majin out there. She simply had to be, she wasn't as powerful as most Majins were, the average power level of a Majin at birth was usually in the four-digit range, Pearl barely broke 100. Her parents did all they could to make her stronger, but Pearl's heart was never in it, she didn't want to be strong just to be strong. Her mother, Buudikka, encouraged her though, and in time Pearl found a reason to become stronger.

Which led to her being here, in the past, at the original Majin Buu's house. Pearl carefully snuck close and peeked inside a window. There he is! Majin Buu! Pearl could sense his power, even though Majin Buu was quietly reading a book. This was a special assignment for Pearl, to test whether she could be stealthy in the past to avoid changing history. "Wow, this place sure brings back great memories, doesn't it?" Hercule Satan declared, "I was already surprised when you said you built a house, Buu, but then I saw the place!" Pearl was a little envious herself, she couldn't materialize much of anything, the biggest thing she ever made with her Majin Magic was a frying pan.

Buu however wasn't paying much attention, too engrossed in reading his book. I wonder what he's reading? Pearl wondered, and tapped a button on her scouter, the Time Patrol gave all Time Patrol Academy students the latest scouters to help them on their missions. Pearl's scouter zoomed in and Pearl read the book. Oh my, Pearl almost giggled out loud, so that's the book that helped our species get started… "Hmm…" Buu finally acknowledged Hercule, then read aloud, "Margaret said, 'Hee hee! Stop, that tickles! Mom will be home soon. But Bob took her hand and…" Buu stopped, confused. "Hercule! Hercule!"

Hercule came over and asked, "What is it, Buu?" Buu asked, "What this word mean?" Hercule looked at the book and read the page, "Let me see… Wait! What are you reading?! Where did you find this!?" "Buu take it from Hercule's room," Buu bluntly stated. Hercule was trying to think of what to say, "B-Buu, y-you shouldn't be reading this…" The Original Majin was confused and asked, "Buu shouldn't? Why not?" Hercule quickly said, "Y-You'll understand when you're older. J-Just give it back now, okay?" Buu turned away from Hercule and stubbornly said, "No." "C-come on, please?" Hercule begged. Wow, and I thought that I had it rough learning about sexuality on my own, Pearl thought. "Buu say no!" Buu said and reached high to keep the book out of Hercule's reach. Hercule looked like he was about to choke in surprise. "Buu want to read," Buu insisted. "A-All right… If you want to read, then read," Hercule said, giving up.

"Uh, anyway, food is ready, so maybe we should eat first alright? Y-Yeah, let's do that!" Hercule said. Ah, now I see, it's a trick, Pearl realized. Buu's stomach growled and he said, "Food? Mm, that sound good." Hercule wiped the sweat off his forehead and walked back to the kitchen, leaving Buu to wonder aloud, "Lovey-dovey…"

Pearl watched from the window quietly, when all of a sudden she got a message on her scouter, "One incoming report. Upon assessment of a situation, I have concluded that…" "Just wait one minute!" the robot on the other end was interrupted by the voice of Elder Kai. Does this mean… "Wh-what was that for?!" the robot asked. Elder Kai ignored the robot and said, "You've been specifically chosen for that critical mission!" Pearl pumped her fists in the air when she heard the news, she almost yelled out loud she was so excited! "Now go out there and do it!" Elder Kai ordered. Pearl immediately pulled the scroll out of her vest and flew off, straight to Conton City.

AGE: 852

Pearl happily flew through the skies of Conton City, past the buildings, between the mountains, and even in front of the massive Dragon hovering in the sky above it. I DID IT! I WAS CHOSEN! When Kenshiro comes back, I'm going to thank him so good! Pearl wouldn't have made it this far without the help of her Earthling boyfriend, Kenshiro. At the Academy, Pearl aced all written exams, but barely passed the physical ones, while Kenshiro had the opposite problem. The two of them helped each other out, and soon were among the Time Patroller Academy's top students. Studying turned to romance, and the two of them had been sharing an apartment with a Namekian named Barit for the last four months now. It was all paying off! Pearl happily flew down into the Shopping district of Conton City and waved at her fellow Patrollers. Then she saw her, the Supreme Kai of Time, waving her over. Bring it on, Pearl thought with a confident smile.

"Welcome home!" the Supreme Kai of Time greeted Pearl. "It's great to be here, Supreme Kai of Time-sama," Pearl greeted. The Supreme Kai of Time chuckled and said, "Great news! You've been chosen for that big mission! Congrats!" Pearl rubbed her head tentacles shyly, she couldn't believe this day was here! She looked around, and didn't see any sign of the Elder Kai though. "Oh, cheer up. The Supreme Kai of Time has graciously appeared to give her best wishes after all. I mean really. Don't you think you're being a bit cold," the Supreme Kai of Time said. "T-thank you, Supreme Kai of Time-sama, but…where's the Elder Kai?" Pearl asked. "Oh, so you're looking for the old man? When he heard you passed the test, he went off somewhere in a hurry. Why don't you go and look for him?" "Maybe I will," Pearl said.

The Supreme Kai of Time told her, "You know what? I'm pretty sure that he was the happiest to hear about your success!" Pearl smiled and said, "Thank you, I think I'll go look for the Elder Kai now." "The old man ran off that way. He may have headed for that building over there with the light blue roof. Somebody must've seen something. You should try asking around. Hurry up now! There's no time to waste," the Supreme Kai of Time said. Pearl was about to start flying when the Supreme Kai of Time said, "Oh! That reminds me! Even if you're in a hurry, you can't fly yet! I saw you flying about! Don't make me warn you again! It's dangerous to be flying recklessly like that! You need to get your Flying License before you can fly in Conton City!" "Oopsy," Pearl said, powering down, forgot I didn't have my license yet. Guess I have to start running.

Pearl ran to the building the Supreme Kai of Time pointed at and saw an Earthling with spiky black hair, blue gi pants, black shoes, the top of Tien's Gi, and Bardock's Armbands on. "Hey, Tufu, have you seen the Elder Kai?" Pearl asked. "You're looking for the Elder Kai?" Tufu said, "He was walking down this road just a little bit ago, but then he suddenly let out a huge yell and took off. Do you know the Clothing Shop over there? He went down the road just past it. Ask around there if you can't find him. Somebody must've seen where he went. He's usually quite a boisterous old man, but he seemed a bit exhausted today. I wonder what happened…" "Thanks, see you later Tufu!" Pearl said as she ran to the Clothing Shop. Speaking of clothes… I hope the Elder Kai doesn't get creepy… She wasn't a fan of the top, she didn't like showing off so much to everyone, she would've preferred to wear her Light Heart Suit, but Patroller Academy students had to wear their uniform, and Pearl was so excited about her mission she forgot to change.

Pearl reached the Clothing Shop, but no Elder Kai. "Hello," a pink haired Saiyan in a green gi said, "Why are you wandering around liked that?" "I'm looking for Elder Kai," Pearl said. "Oh. I saw him walking down the road yelling out that he was busy. I thought he was headed for the Academy but… He suddenly took off running towards the Reception Area, but he fell over. I hope he's all right. That was a pretty nasty spill. The Reception Area is just below the yellow roof over there. My name's Chicori by the way." "Thanks, Chicori," Pearl said, and headed for the Reception Area. She looked all around, still no Elder Kai. Where could he be?

Pearl saw an orange female Majin in a blue sports bra and white gi pants with yellow boots and gloves and remembered her name, "Kunel, did you see the Elder Kai come by?" "Huh? Pearl? You want to know where the Elder Kai went? He left the Reception Area and took off towards the Time Nest. The Time Nest is just past that gate, like you don't already know," Kunel answered. "Thanks, Kunel, see you later," Pearl said, and ran off to the Time Nest. Pearl was amazed as she ran up the stairway leading to the Time Nest, before her training at the Time Patroller Academy and the extra training with Kenshiro, she would have been struggling to run up all those stairs.

Right in front of the entrance to the Time Nest stood the Elder Kai, looking impatient, "You're late! Where've you been wandering about all this time?!" "I'm sorry Elder Kai-sama, but I was busy looking for you," Pearl explained. "Hm? You're saying it was my fault? Stop blaming your failings on others, you young punk!" "Yes sir!" Pearl stood straight and yelled. Elder Kai took a deep breath and calmed down a little, "Ahem! Now listen up! You've been chosen for a very special mission! This is a great honor! You'll be only the second elite member to ever do this!" Elite member… I can't wait to tell everyone back home! "Your job is to travel to eras where changes in history have been made, and fix any errors that may have occurred. However! You still have much to learn! First you should learn from the wisdom of those that have gone before you!

"Once a change has been made to history, it becomes easier for subsequent changes to be made to it as well. So head out to these eras where changes in history have been made and do what you can to right the wrongs that have been done! Okay, off you go…" the Elder Kai finished talking just as the Supreme Kai of Time arrived, "Hey there! Wait just a moment!" Elder Kai looked to her and said, "Why if it isn't the Supreme Kai of Time… And here I was just about to take matters into my own hands, too." The Supreme Kai of Time walked over to him and said, "There's no need for such hostility! I have come here to make sure that our agent is ready!" "Oh, you don't say… In that case, welcome," Elder Kai said, "Yes, maybe she should be tested first." He turned his attention back to Pearl and said, "Come see me after you've passed the Supreme Kai of Time's test. Your first job will be waiting for you."

"I understand," Pearl said, "I'm ready whenever, Supreme Kai of Time-sama." "Alright then, let's go," the Supreme Kai of Time said, and with a wave of her hands, teleported Pearl to an abandoned Archipelago. "Alright then, if you can handle all the Saibamen here, then you'll be ready for your mission," Supreme Kai of Time said. She threw down some seeds onto the ground, and Saibamen started sprouting form the ground. Pearl saw the first Saibamen and quickly dispatched it with a flurry of punches before kicking it into the ground. She flew back just in time to avoid the second one's Saibabeam and blasted it with a large ki ball before curling into a ball and slamming into it, sending the Saibaman slamming into a tree hard enough to break it's back. Pearl blocked the third Saibaman's claw slashes and seized her opportunity to punch it in its throat, making it gag before Pearl destroyed it with another ki ball. The fourth Saibaman tried to fly away, and Pearl quickly flew after it. Putting on a quick boost of speed, she kicked it right on the top if it's head, hard enough to slice it in half.

Kenshiro was right, their bulbous heads really are their greatest weakness… Pearl thought. That was when another Saibaman grabbed her from behind and tossed her into the ocean. Pearl was barraged with ki balls before she quickly flew back. "Ow! How many are there?" she asked and checked her scouter. Six more Saibamen. Pearl knew what to do though, she had trained for this. Pearl gathered up her power and blasted a massive ki blast all around her, knocking the Saibamen back. She focused her power again and then pointed two fingers up in the air, "Giant Storm!" A massive explosion tore through the area, leaving a lot of dead Saibamen in its wake. Pearl's scouter went off and she saw six more Saibamen. Pearl unleashed another Giant Storm, destroying the Saibamen easily. This is just too easy…

"The test isn't over yet!" the Supreme Kai of Time declared, and Pearl sensed a larger ki signature approaching. A large red Namekian with black muscles and pure white eyes approached, he was shirtless and only wore white gi pants and shoes. "Flute here has generously agreed to help test you. If you can beat him, then you are ready for your mission," the Supreme Kai of Time said. Flute bowed to Pearl and said, "Don't hold back." "I won't, Flute-san," Pearl promised. Flute flew at Pearl and went for a kick, Pearl nimbly dodged it and grabbed Flute from behind. She pounded the red Namekian's head then stretched back and slammed her knees into his back. Pearl unleashed a Full Powered Energy Wave, but Flute jumped back in time to dodge it, then hit her with a Light Grenade.

Pearl took an elbow to the face from Flute, but then flew down and focused her power, "Kamehameha!" a pink Majin Kamehameha Wave hit Flute hard, opening up his stomach for Pearl to slam both her feet into. Flute threw up some, but then blasted lasers from his eyes and knocked Pearl back. Flute reached out with his elastic Namekian arm and grabbed Pearl and drew her in and punched her hard in her stomach. Pearl wouldn't be denied though as she grabbed his fist and blasted purple ki from her mouth into his face, knocking the large Namekian out. The Supreme Kai of Time came over and healed Flute and Pearl, "That was awesome! Thank you for your help, Flute! And Pearl, I'm convinced. Glad I can leave the Patrol in capable hands. Time for your mission!" With another wave of her hands, the Supreme Kai of Time sent Flute and Pearl back to Conton City.

"She's ready to go," the Supreme Kai of Time told the Elder Kai. "Alright then," the Elder Kai said, and turned to Pearl, "This'll be your first Time Patrol. Make sure you follow the example that your peers have set for you out there!" The Elder Kai handed Pearl a Scroll, and she was off.

AGE: 761

Raditz nimbly blocked all of Goku's attacks as Piccolo charged up. He then kicked back Goku and blasted him with his Saturday Crash. Raditz quickly reached his younger brother and grabbed his torn gi top, "Die!" Raditz yelled as he prepared for the kill. "Special Beam Cannon!" Piccolo yelled, seizing his chance. Raditz saw the attack coming, and a purple aura surrounded him and he dodged it! Raditz blasted Piccolo and Goku could only yell, "Piccolo!" Raditz's scouter went off, and a bright light appeared. Pearl had arrived. Then fell on her butt. "Ow," Pearl said, standing up and rubbing her rear, forgot to get ready for flight. Stupid! Pearl then remembered where she was and got ready to fight. Raditz smiled as the purple aura surrounded him and blasted at Pearl and Goku with Double Sunday. "No matter how much trash there is, it's still trash!" "Pot calling the kettle black," Pearl muttered. "Hey, can I get your help?" Goku asked. "Sure," Pearl told him, then her scouter went off.

"Is this what you want? Hey! Can you even hear us?" Elder Kai said through the scouter. "Yes," Pearl said, then blocked a kick from Raditz. "We'll communicate with you this way from the Time Nest to give you advice," the Supreme Kai of Time said. "Thanks," Pearl said before dodging a punch from Raditz, allowing Goku to kick him in his back. Pearl saw her chance and blasted purple ki out her mouth, sending Raditz back. "Your entrance was really darn lousy by the way," the Elder Kai said, "But we can talk about that later. Here Goku and Piccolo were supposed to work together to defeat that nasty turd Raditz." "Yeah, but he's stronger than before," Pearl pointed out. "You have to defeat Raditz so that Goku and Piccolo can finish him off!" Elder Kai ordered. "Understood," Pearl said. Pearl blasted a ki ball right at Raditz, and followed up by grabbing him from behind and knocking on his head before pulling back and slamming her knees into his back.

Goku turned to Piccolo and asked him, "Piccolo, are you alright?" Piccolo got up and said, "Heh… I won't allow myself to die before the entire world bows to me." Wow, he really was evil in the past. Soon-sensei never said anything about that… "Listen," Piccolo said, "I only have one more of those left in me! It needs to count, so you have to hold him still!" "Got it!" Goku agreed. Piccolo yelled towards Pearl as she struggled to block a barrage of blows from Raditz, "And you! I don't know who you are, but defend me with your life until I'm ready!" "Got it!" Pearl yelled.

Goku saw a chance and hit Raditz with a Kamehameha Wave. Pearl then kicked Raditz in his face before hitting him with a quick Majin Kamehameha Wave. Raditz yelled out and hit them with a Weekend blast. Pearl and Goku were knocked back, but Pearl wasn't as badly hurt and responded with her own Energy Wave, knocking Raditz back. Pearl saw that Piccolo was ready and told Goku, "Grab him now!" Goku quickly grabbed Raditz in a Full Nelson Hold and yelled, "Now, Piccolo! Do it!" "What are you doing?!" Raditz yelled. "Special Beam Cannon!" Piccolo roared. His beam pierced through Goku and Raditz, Goku laughing at his and Piccolo's victory while Raditz could only yell, "DAAMMMNNN IIIIIIITTTTTT!" Pearl quickly hid and watched as Piccolo smirked and said, "Serves you right." Piccolo looked around and said, "What was that? Where did…" Pearl nodded and pulled out her Scroll, returning to Conton City. But she wasn't the only one watching Piccolo…

AGE: 852

Back at the Time Nest the Elder Kai congratulated Pearl, "That was some handy work. Those moves weren't half bad... Except for your entrance." "Thank you, I'll work on that," Pearl told him. "Goku and Piccolo would surely have been defeated if you hadn't stepped in and saved them," Elder Kai continued, "Your job is helping to correct any inconsistencies like this that crop up in the timeline. This time went smoothly, but battles later on in history get intense. So, continue with your training, because only the strong can correct history! But since you're training under the greatest Kai in the Universe, there shouldn't be anything to worry about." The Elder Kai proudly stroked his mustache, "As long as you listen to my advice, you'll come into your own eventually, and-"

"Yeah, we get it! You sure do like to ramble, old man," the Supreme Kai of Time interrupted. An annoyed Elder Kai said, "Listen here, Supreme Kai of Time, I'm only about a millennium older than you. That hardly makes me an old man." Pearl took a second to look at the Supreme Kai of Time, and the Elder Kai. Wow, a thousand years really isn't much to them… "What are you saying? Anyone who laid eyes on you would easily call you an old man!" The Supreme Kai of Time said, and Pearl had to nod at that. The Supreme Kai of Time continued, "Don't even try to compare yourself to an adorable girl like me!" "You call yourself adorable!? How do you find a hat with a head that big!?" Elder Kai yelled. The Elder Kai then sighed and said to Pearl, "That's all from us for the moment. We'll tell you more about the world later on."

The Supreme Kai looked to Pearl and said, "Okay then… You've gotta be bored half to death after listening to his speeches, am I right? Allow me to walk you out. This way, please!" Pearl followed the Supreme Kai of Time, leaving Elder Kai to yell, "Hey, wait! You can't just jump ahead like that!" Seeing that they weren't paying him any attention, the Elder Kai followed them out.

The three of them made their way to the Shopping District of Conton City, onto the fountain in it. The Supreme Kai of Time turned to Pearl and said, "It all happened when Conton City was known as Toki Toki City. The place was put in danger by a really nasty person who warped time. One hero bravely saved the city-no, not just the city, but the entire Universe, its history and everything!" The Elder Kai told Pearl, "The history you mended was once saved by this hero." Pearl smiled, If only they knew… "Take a good look. This is that very hero!" the Supreme Kai of Time said. The center of the fountain lit up, revealing a giant hologram of none other than Soon, the hero of Toki Toki City! I wonder what Soon-sensei will think when he sees this.

"So, was it a treat seeing him like this or what?" The Supreme Kai of Time said. "It's amazing," Pearl said, the hologram was perfect, if it wasn't so huge it would be a perfect likeness of Soon. "Keep working hard. Some day, I know you'll become just as strong as he, eventually. I look forward to seeing what you can accomplish!"

Author's Note: I know that the Supreme Kai of Time's thing before the Raditz mission isn't like this, but I'm skipping the tutorials. Hope you enjoyed, look forward to more. I'd like to thank yoshi3000 for inspiring me to write this.
