"So how do you guys think Vegeta got so strong?" Asked Pan as they flew high in the sky in the direction of Vegeta's energy.
"The way dad talked about him it seemed like he's been under Babadi's magic again."
"You think Babadi's back?"
"No. He would've had the M on his forehead. Maybe another wizard is behind this though." Flute scans his mind of any known wizards. Aside from Ryser however he could think of none.
"In any case we gotta be prepared for anything. Vegeta's not our friend anymore, don't treat him like it." Says Marron.
"You sound like Ricardo." Says Gotan absentmindedly. He cursed to himself as soon as the words left his mouth.
"STOP MENTIONING HIS NAME!"
Pan punches Gotan in his arm. "Stupid."
"Sorry Marr."
"Don't call me that. You know I hate when people call me Marr."
"Geez, so touchy."
"Gotan. I will not hesitate to kick you in the children."
Gotan's face straightens up and he flies a little faster. After a while they reach the source of the energy. Capsule Corperation.
"So. After all this he still lives here?"
Flute looks around curiuously. "We don't know that. Stay on high alert."
"Right." They say together.
Suddenly the sky darkens.
"What's going on?" Says Felisha.
"Shenron! The 7 dragon balls have been gathered."
"Good. So we won?" Says Pan.
"We might not be the ones that summoned him!" Says Gotan flying off as fast as he can.
"I'll go with him." Says Pan.
"K then. So much for sticking together. Guess it's just me and you guys left."
"Oh. I'm hurt. What about me?" Vegeta descends down in front of them.
"Vegeta. What's going on?" Says Flute.
"Oh shut up greenbean Jr. We're moments away from making our wish."
"So that was you guys summoning shenron."
"Sure was. Don't worry though, you'll already be dead."
"We can take you." Says Marron getting into her battle position. But Felisha was unsteady. She now sensed three other familiar, but at the same time not familiar power levels."
"Oh I'm sorry Marron. Did I forget to mention. You won't be fighting me."
As if on cue a destructo disk went flying through the air at them. They jump out the way.
"What the hell's going on?"
"I'd like to reintroduce you to your parents. New and improved of course."
Krillen, Goten, and Piccolo land in front of them.
"Dad? What's going on?"
"It's over Marron. They won. Join us." A dark aura surrounded him and the others.
"What did you do to them?!"
"Nothing much. Just turned them to a new cause. Kill them. Think you can beat all of us? Your mistaken."
They fly at them.
"Shit!" Yells Marron dodging a punch from Krillin. "Snap out of it dad!"
Piccolo fires a beam at Flute who knocks the beam into the air. "Father. Your better than mind control."
Felisha flies around and Goten gives chase. "Please dad. Stop this."
Vegeta just smirks at the sight. Everything was going according to plan. And while he enjoyed them squirming to fight their parents, he figured it'd be much easier to end this with a big bang attack while their distracted. He holds his hand out and turns Super Saiyan. Blue energy charges up in his hand in the shape of a ball. "Say goodbye kids." Suddenly his hand is grabbed by another Super Saiyan.
"Gohan. I thought I broke you."
"You did. And thankfully, I'm part saiyan." Gohan sends Vegeta back with a blast of KI.
"You know sometimes I curse the Saiyan blood that courses through your veins."
"I do too sometimes." Gohan punches Vegeta and he goes flying back.
Gotan and Pan arrive just as the dragon balls scatter.
They see Ryser standing beside Lord Exodus.
"What's going on?!" Yells Pan.
They turn and look at her. "Oh. So the little kids are here to play. No matter, the wish is already made. Now to tie up loose ends." Ryser and Exodus fly at Pan and Gotan and punch them. They go flying to the ground.
"Shit. What do we do? We can't fight both of them together. We gotta split up."
"Split up? But we can't take on one of them by ourselves."
"We gotta try. Let's take it up a notch."
In an instant Gotan and Pan's hair became yellow and their power shot up.
"Well that helps. A little." They didn't have time to say anymore because Ryser came flying at them. Pan intercepts his attack and Gotan goes flying away. Exodus appears in front of him. He punches him but Gotan dodges the punch.
"So that stupid Saiyan transformation makes you stronger. Not strong enough unfortunately." Exodus grabs Gotan and tosses him, sending a KI blast after him. Gotan spins and dodges the attack. Sending a blast of his own towards the man. Exodus crushes the beam in his hand.
"Who the hell are you?!"
"I am Exodus. That's all you need to know!" Exodus flies at Gotan.

A boy with black hair sits cross legged in the grass. Dragon tattoo flashing violently on his body. "Go away you stupid beast!" The dragon stops flashing. "Damn it. Why can't I control it?!" Ricardo stands up. He knew it had been 3 days and his friends were probably fighting by now but he couldn't control his power. He was afraid he might hurt his friends instead of the enemy. So for now he had to be isolated from everyone. But at the rate he was going, he wasn't going to be reunited with them anytime soon.
"Maybe you shouldn't resist."
Ricardo jumps and gets into battle position. He looks around with his KI but doesn't feel anyone. "Who's there?"
"Sorry. Didn't mean to scare you." A familiar figure appears in front of Ricardo. He runs a hand through his gravity defying hair.
"What the hell are you doing here? I thought you were gone?"
"Not exactly. Well it's a long story actually but time is of the essence. You need to learn to control this power as soon as possible. I'm gonna help you."
"Assuming I believe anything you say, how can you help me?"
"I can show you how to control the power inside."
"How can you help? My father couldn't even help me."
"Your father hasn't been around as long as I have. I can show you the real secret."
He thought for a moment. After insisting in his mind that he had no other choice he finally said "Fine. Let's go." But as he said this he felt another figure approaching. Luckily he knew who this one was. He takes off his sword in anticipation. The figure lands in front of him. Hair glowing gold and long down to his back.
"I figured you'd want this back." He tosses the sword back to it's owner.
"Thanks." Trunk's eyes wander to the other person beside his nephew. "Is that…"
"No." He cuts him off. "Don't worry though he's not bad. I think. Anyway go help them."
"I'm on it.
