Chapter 4: A wish like none other
"Okay then if that's what you all want, we don't have much time…" Goku said with a hurried look on his face, he had sensed Ornichi's ship in the atmosphere; Vegeta did so too, "… Trunks, Gohan and Goten, I want you three to go into the hyperbolic chamber and train hard. I and the others will try to stop him till you three get back"
"But dad, we can't leave you in the battlefield alone, you need us"
"I know and that's why I am asking you to go in there"
"But why don't you and Vegeta go in? You both are already on a higher level, you might just…."
Goku cut in between, "There's no time for that… You need three hours to reach SS3 and we will give you just that, train hard, the future of Earth might just be on your shoulders now!"
"Okay, if that's what you really want…" Saying, Gohan along with Trunks and Goten ran towards the time chamber.

Suddenly the clouds grew darker. Lighting struck the Tower of Kami…
"Congratulations! You have collected all the seven Dragon Balls… You may ask for three wishes to be fulfilled…" The Eternal Dragon said looking at Kami, and all the Z Warriors...
The Earth Dragon Balls, created by Kami, earlier had only the power of granting one wish to the collector of all the Seven Dragon Balls… But after the elder Namek, Guru's touch, the Dragon balls got the power of fulfilling three wishes, just like the Namekian one's…
"Oh! Mighty Dragon… For our first wish; We want you to make us another home in a Galaxy far away from here, and no one should be able to reach it unless he has a pure heart … For our Second wish; We want you to transport every person on Planet Earth to that Planet, without them knowing about it, except for the Z Warriors and myself…"
"Kami!" Mr. Popo exclaimed but was hushed by his old friend, he had understood his intentions. Kami then turned to Goku, "What should be the third wish?"
"Immortality for all of us…" Vegeta replied instantly
"No Vegeta that would be a stupid wish…" Goku said looking at his now angered face, "What's the use of immortality if our power's give up? We will be in a far worse condition then we already are!"
Vegeta thought for a while and understood what Goku meant, he stepped back to let him think…
"Ask the dragon to destroy the Dragon Balls…" Goku said tensely… Everyone looked at him in utter amazement.
"I think Goku's lost it!" Jenna whispered to Krillin and Yamcha, they gave her an indifferent look. Kami at first was hesitant, but then he understood; if somehow Ornichi found out that Dragon balls existed on planet Earth also… It was no telling what he would do; it was in its own best interest that the Dragon Balls be destroyed!
"Our third wish, O' Dragon is that…" He was hesitating, Goku put his hand on Kami's shoulder, he continued, "That the Dragon Balls self destruct…" Kami said and hung his head down, as if to pay respect to the Dragon…
"Wishes Granted…" Saying so, the Dragon flew up and disappeared in thin air, never to return, as the Dragon Balls had now turned into ashes!
Suddenly Mr. Popo and Yacharobi vanished in thin air…
"Its all done, every one has gone… The earth belongs to us now…" Kami said giving a serious expression…
"All right then! Every one of you here, you had your chance! Now there's no turning back, give it all you have. Do not hold back, you hesitate, you die… And remember a Saiyan will use every tactic in the book to achieve what he wants, as all of you have experienced before hand… So, do not believe anything he says or does… There's only one motive and that is to destroy Ornichi…" Vegeta Yelled and blasted off from Kami's lookout, followed by the eight other mighty warriors.
