Brenman: Here's the next chapter. In answer to Sakura Lisels' question, Piccolo doesn't know about the problems with the Black Star Balls, what will happen? Find out on today's episode of Dragonball ZZZZZZZZZ.
Chapter 8: Super Saiyans and Trampolines.
Everyone was still sweatdropping. They had been for days, ever since I posted the last chapter actually.
Everyone continued sweatdropping. "Kakarott," prince Goku's father, King Vegeta, said with a worried sounding voice, "you've just been told that you'll be able to see your home planet and your almost extinct race, and all you can think about is eating."
Goku grinned happily and latched on to his newly discovered fathers' arm. "What can I say Dad. I like to eat." Goku looked affectionately at his father, completely oblivious to the fact that Vegeta looked like he was about to throw up, and that the vomit would be purposefully aimed at his face.
"Kakarott, please don't call me dad, father, or any variation of such names." Vegeta growled at the taller saiyan. "Unless you want to live the rest of your life with only one arm. Or I could fill your bedroom with needles." Vegeta smirked at Gokus' reaction as the younger saiyan jumped across the yard and hid behind his newly found mother.
Mirai Gohan chuckled nervously, "Only having one arm's not very fun, I can attest to that."
Suddenly Krillin, looking nervously at all the Saiyans, butted into the conversation, "Hang on for one minute. Don't you all think that maybe, just maybe, we should discuss your wish. Do you really think it's a good idea to bring back the saiyans? It's no secret that they were pretty ruthless."
Prince Vegeta pushed through the crowd and walked right up to Krillin and picked him up by the collar of his midget size orange golf shirt. "Hey shorty, we are going to make that wish and there is nothing you can do to stop us. All the Saiyans are with us, and what could a bunch of humans do."
"Actually, I know you can't sense power levels, but anyone here that can will tell you that I am stronger then you, and I don't even fight anymore." Krillin smiled at the young saiyan. The formerly bald monk watched with a bored expression on his face as prince Vegeta threw a retort at him, pulled back his fist and flung it forward towards Krillins' noseless face. The short human twisted the mans wrist that was holding him up and dropped to the ground as the punch went sailing over his head. Krillin then pivoted on his left foot and swung out his right foot to trip the saiyan.
The hot headed saiyan man looked up at the short noseless monk and glare while his face reddened at the thought of being beaten by a lowly human. "How dare you," the saiyan yelled at him.
"How dare I what? defend myself? I know That we could beat your little group. We couldn't beat Goku, Vegeta or Gohan in a fight, but of course, that's what Chi Chi, Bulma, and Videl are here for." Krillin laughed at the young Saiyans, 'this kid really reminds me of our Vegeta.' he thought to himself (and unknowingly to the audience as well).
Larvat stepped forward and pulled his son up roughly and pushed him to the other side of the group. "Calm down, these people have already proven that they can beat you, don't go making enemies that you can't handle." Larvat turned back to the rest of the group. "I think he is right, we should talk about this, I am sure we will be able to convince you that this isn't a rash mistake."
Suddenly there was a high nasally sounding voice that seemed to be coming from everywhere at once, "Hello everybody, I couldn't help but over hear your conversation and I was wondering if you'd like my advice on some points."
The new Saiyans looked around trying to locate the source of the voice. Everyone else looked up, as if that was where the person was, "Hey King Kai, how are you?" Goku asked his short blue god.
"I'm fine Goku, But your plan to use the Black Star Dragonballs has a serious flaw. I've been doing some research and apparently the Dragonballs get their power from the planet that they are on at the time the wish is made. All Dragonballs seem to work this way. When you use ordinary Dragonballs the planet is given enough time to recover from the influx of negative energy during the year the Dragonballs are dormant after the wishes are made, and no trouble comes of it."
"So, what's the problem then?" King Vegeta asked harshly.
"Hold your tails." King Kai went into a laughing fit at his oh so funny joke (Hahaha. sigh) The problem is that these aren't normal Dragonballs, by granting more difficult wishes, the balls require more energy and therefore the planet won't be able to recover. About eight months after the wish is made, the planet will begin falling apart. You know, Earthquakes, huge storm systems, volcanoes erupting, that sort of thing. After one year has passed though, the whole planet with explode. Which I don't think I need to tell you is a bad thing."
Everyone gasped. "But King Kai, isn't there any way around this?" Goku asked in a very whinny voice. "I want to go to Planet Vegeta."
"No Goku I'm afr-" King Kai didn't get any further.
Bulma interrupted the 'humorous' god, "Could we avoid that by casting the wish on a meteor or an asteroid, or do you know about any lifeless planets that no ones going to miss?" Bulma looked exited at the idea of a challenge. The entire time Bulma was talking she was glaring daggers at Karak 'Darn Husband stealer. She'll probably want to sleep with him tonight' Bulma continued to listen to King Kai and hold an inner rant at the same time.
"Well, you could use the Dragonballs on an asteroid, but you'd need to find a large field of them to power the wish. I could direct you to a deserted planet, but I would miss it. I don't want you to maim my galaxy. Now if you were to travel to the west galaxy and destroy one of Westy's planets, I wouldn't have a problem with that." King Kai giggles in his annoying laugh.
Princess Vetee looked deep in thought before she spoke up, "We passed a large asteroid belt just outside Mars on our way here. Our ship was badly damaged when we passed through the belt. If we fixed our ship, we could get over there in less then a minute." Vetee looked around at everyone else.
"There won't be any need for that. I'm working on a group of ships right now." Bulma stated happily, glad that she got a chance to show off her genius to their guests. "I could have all three ready in about three weeks time, and each would carry ten people comfortably. My father finished installing the cappuccino machines yesterday. I could have the first ship ready in a week, then we could make the wish."
"Yes, that would work, but are you sure you want to make this wish." King Kai shouted out. "I think Krillin may have been right, at least talk this over and let's be reasonable. I don't have any other information for you right now, but I'll keep in touch, Bye everyone. Have fun."
"Thanks King Kai. Talk to you later." Goku chimed, then he noticed that it was getting dark outside and he looked around at everybody. "Look you guys, why don't we talk about this in the morning, I'm sure there's enough room at Capsule Corp, right Bulma?"
"Sure Goku, but don't you think we should talk about this now?" Bulma asked with an expression of anxiousness. "This isn't exactly a common conversation and I'm curious as to what else we can find out.
"No Bulma, we all have a lot of information to digest and we should probably sleep on it. Personally I don't think I can absorb any more information for one day. We can talk about this in the morning, one day isn't doing to kill us." Goku said and smiled cheerfully. Everyone just gawked at him.
"Wow, Kakarott." Vegeta said in a surprised voice, "That was amazingly articulate coming from you."
"Thanks, Ve- dad." Goku said happily and tried to hug his father, Vegeta frowned and dodged around his son and stalked back towards the house.
"Well, I guess that settles it then. Were not continuing the discussion today." Bulma said, then asked, "Is anyone not staying here?" Mr. Satan raised his hand and said he would go home for the night because he had to prepare for something at his amusement park. Bulma nodded and turned to Trunks, "Dear, help me show people to their rooms." Bulma turned around and followed her husband into the house, she motioned for everyone to come into the house as well.
Bulma and her son took the next half an hour showing their guests to the room that they would be staying in. The Son's of course had their own living quarters and Goten would be staying in Trunks's room. Piccolo would be sleeping outside under a tree, hovering in the air. Everyone else though had to get a guest room.
-- Bulma and Vegetas' Room --
"Vegeta I can't believe you never told me that you were Gokus' father. Why didn't you tell me that you had a child with another woman?" Bulma shouted at Vegeta, it's a good thing that the walls were sound proof, or all their guests would be listening to this conversation. "I can't believe you never told me about this. I bet your still in love with her. Aren't you Vegeta? Well you can forget about sleeping in my room from now on." Bulma stopped yelling and collapsed onto the bad and began sobbing into a pillow.
Vegeta watched as his wife began crying and his cold outer exterior broke to reveal his inner emotions, something that doesn't happen often. Vegeta walked over to the bed and sat down beside Bulma. He placed his hand on Bulmas heaving shoulder and began talking to her in a soft voice, "Bulma. Woman. stop crying. now." she didn't stop crying, Vegeta frowned. "Bulma, I don't love her, I never did. We were just friends when we were children. It was my fathers idea, not mine."
Vegeta watched his wife as she slowly stopped crying, but she stayed lying on the bed. Vegeta wrapped his arms around her and pulled his chest down to her back. "Bulma I don't love her. I-I," Vegeta sighed loudly, let go of Bulma and took a deep breath. Bulma sat up and looked at her husbands face, Vegeta stared into her eyes, "I love you Bulma."
Bulmas' mood took a 180 degree turn and jumped on her prince with a squeal of delight and knocking him off the bed in the process. "Oh Vegeta, I loved you to, but if I find out that you have anymore children that I don't know about your going to be sorry. Just please tell me you aren't Piccolos' father or something." Every time Vegeta told Bulma that he loved her, Bulma had to cheer up. If any other guy told her that they loved her, it wouldn't mean much. It was the fact that Vegeta only said it about once every two years. Bulma realized that it was hard for Vegeta to say those three words, in that particular order. Because of this, it made it all the more important to Bulma when he did manage to say it.
It was a good thing that their bedroom was sound proof, or they would be keeping all the other guests awake late into the night now.
-- Goku and Chi Chis' Room --
"So Goku, if you do manage to wish this planet Vegeta back, are you just going to abandon me and the kids here and go live with your people?" Chi Chi looked like someone had just told her both her sons were delinquents. Chi Chi glanced over at her frying pan, sitting a couple feet away on their bedside table.
Goku didn't miss the small movement of Chi Chis' eyes and quickly replied with his hands out in front of him for protection, "No, no, nothing like that. I will probably be going to the planet, but only for a short while. You know, like a vacation for a couple weeks. Just to see what it's like."
Chi Chi placed her hands on her hips, "And then what? You'll want to stay there because you'll like it there better then you like it here. Right?" Chi Chi scowled and as usual, blew everything out of proportion. Goku spent the next two hours trying to talk some sense into his crazy wife.
CLANG
I mean, lovely wonderful young beautiful smart wife. (with a couple screws loose. cringes)
-- Trunks's Room (with Goten) --
"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, no, that's my thermostat."
"ZZZZZZZ, no one eats my rubber ducky, ZZZZZZZZ"
-- Krillin and 18s' Room --
"So Krillin," 18 said, looking at the short Human lying next to her. "why don't you want to see what the rest of the Saiyans are like?"
"I just thought that if they're all like Vegeta when he first arrived, They may just begin killing off other races again." Krillin looked at his blonde wife. "Do we really want to take that chance?"
"What's the matter," The android said in a mocking voice, "Are you scared? Where's your sense of adventure Krillin?"
Krillin gulped. His wife was going to force him into this, "Well, my sense of adventure is right next to my sense of reasoning." Krillin said in a nervous voice and he chuckled half heatedly.
"I for one am excited. I want to go check out the rest of these Saiyans." 18 said with a tone of voice that said, 'And your coming or I'm going to rip your ears off and cook them into a casserole. Then I'm going to feed said casserole to Goku.' Krillin gulped at this and covered his ears.
-- Underneath a Tree Outside --
'I'm walking on sunshine , woooah. I'm walking on sunshine, woooah. I'm walking on sunshine, woooah, and don't it feel good!'
-- Bulma and Vegetas' Room... Again --
"Ohhh, ohhhh, YES!"
(Clears throat) "Sorry."
-- Gohan and Videls' Room --
"Rock, Paper, Scissors." it was a tie.
"Rock, Paper, Scissors. Ha, yes, I win. how about another round?"
"Rock, Pap..."
-- Goku and Chi Chis' Room... Again --
"So, now Bulmas' your step mom?" Chi Chi asked her husband. "Does that feel weird?"
"I guess your right, but it doesn't feel any different." Goku said. "It is a bit weird now that you mentioned it."
"Well," Chi Chi said slowly, "What are you going to do about this?"
"ZZZZZZZZZ, I don't want to eat a needle sandwich."
Chi Chi sweatdropped and turned off the light.
-- Somewhere in the Deep Scary Recesses of the Authors Head. --
The night passed with no more funny or mildly important conversations, otherwise known as filler, between characters and in the morning everyone was up bright and early at the crack of 5:13.
Everyone was up so early because Goku can be an idiot sometimes. If you would please note, Goku made everyone go inside and go to bed when the sun went down. That's around what, 8:30 PM. In other words, everyone went to bed early, so they woke up early. Also, because I have some stuff planned and I don't want the characters getting going to late in the day.
The entire group congregated outside in the backyard waiting for breakfast. There just wasn't enough room in the house to fit everyone. With the entire saiyan population sitting in the backyard Bulma, Chi Chi, Launch, and 18 had their hands full in three separate kitchen, overseeing several cooking bots trying to churn out more food then had ever been cooked for one single occasion on the planet earth.
After an hour of cooking the four women began carting the food out onto the picnic tables. There was a mad rush by everyone trying to fill their plates. The Saiyans rushed because they hadn't eaten in twelve hours and were clearly wasting away. The humans because if they didn't hurry the Saiyans would clear off the table. The women watched as all the food they had cooked began disappearing and with a resigned sigh walked back into the house to cook some more.
After everyone had been filled up, and Piccolo had had some of his delicious water (Ingredients; Water, H2O,Lliquid ice, and Di hydrogen mon oxide), the gang regrouped in the backyard sitting on whatever was available. "Okay everybody," Goku said cheerfully from his seat next to King Vegeta. "first things first. Does anyone actually have any problems with wishing the Saiyans back to life?"
"I do." Tien said coldly, "If we wish the Saiyans back to life, all we will have is a new planet of savage planet pirates. We don't need that. Who may I ask will keep them in check. They could go rampaging all over the universe, killing billions of innocent lives for a small fee."
Vegeta growled at the harsh words of the triclops. "To begin with, if this is the best we could expect from them," Vegeta gestured in the direction of prince Vegeta, who was glaring at Tien (like you didn't see that coming), "We could easily handle the entire race if they decided to give us any trouble. Besides, they will listen to their king, and from what I have seen, he's not a very hostile person. Unless my father is wished back. As it was, my father only had the well being of his people in mind. With Freeza gone, the planet purging will be brought down to a minimum." Vegeta glared at Tien before turning back to the rest of the group.
"Now, don't you think your getting a bit to confident of your abilities. You may be stronger then my son, but you couldn't really be strong enough to defeat the entire saiyan race. There is only a handful of you." Larvat chided the elder saiyan Prince.
"We could if we transformed." Goten said with a of tone in his voice saying that he was just a bit hyper. Which was probably why both him and trunks were jumping on a trampoline and eating ice cream at the same time. (Or was it because of that?)
"Transform?" Larvat asked curiously and looked at Vegeta.
"Yeah," Goten and Trunks said at the same time and succeeding in sounding like Gotenks, "into Super Saiyans."
Larvat chuckled at the children's words. "Those are just old legends." He grinned with mirth, "Their is no real transformation. From what we can figure, some Saiyans were more powerful then others and just claimed to be super Saiyans." Larvat looked back at the two children and his jaw hit the floor. He starred at the two demi-saiyans with his eyes trying to pop right out of his skull. All the other Saiyans that came with him looked where he was staring. There were both the boys. It was unmistakably them, but they both had spiky gold hair, green eyes, and a golden aura. The saiyans couldn't sense power levels, but even they could feel the raw power radiating off the two hyper boys.
"What, but how, this, I..." Larvat couldn't get more then a couple words out at a time before going speechless. "It's true then. That is what a super saiyan is?" it seems Larvat had somehow managed to squeak out, but continued staring at the two boys along with the rest of his posse.
"Yep." Goku said happily. He laughed at the expressions on the Saiyans faces. "We have found it to come in quite useful sometimes."
"How could mere children achieve such a coveted level?" Princess Vetee said in awe. "How many of you have reached this level?"
"Other then the children, we have all reached at least the second level." King Vegeta said.
"What do you mean when you say the second level? There are more transformations beyond super saiyan?" Vetee asked. When she realized her mate was mostly incapable of talking at the present time she decided to do the talking for the group.
"Yes, Kakarott has reached the third level. His eldest brat has reached the second level, and I have almost reached the third level." Vegeta stated sounding like he couldn't decided whether to be smug or irritated.
"Could we see the other levels as well?" Vetee asked her older brother with a new note of reverence in her voice.
"Sure." Goku said happy to enlighten such a curious person. All the Saiyans turned away from the two chibi's at the promise of a better show. Goku effortlessly powered up to the second level, skipping the first level completely. "This is the second level. You may notice the increased muscle mass, the small lightning bolts, the slightly longer hair, and if you could sense it, a great increase in power."
Suddenly everyone looked off to the other side of the yard when they heard a loud crashing noise. What they found was Trunks and Goten hovering in mid air over what was appeared to be a large trampoline shaped hole in the ground. Upon closer inspection by Yamucha it was discovered that the hole was approximately twenty feet deep with a very battered trampoline at the bottom. The two Super saiyan chibi's looked down sheepishly. Trunks decided to add some verbal commentary, "I guess we shouldn't have a jumping competition while were super Saiyans. Hey Goten, help me give this brave Trampoline a proper burial."
The two demi Saiyans began firing blast into the hole until the ground collapsed in and the trampoline was lost to site. Trunks pulled a conveniently placed tomb stone out of his pocket and placed it over the grave. it read, 'Hear lies Trampy. He was doomed the day he was bought. Just like Trunks's pet gerbil.' Trunks patted Goten on the back as he began sniffling. "Captain Goten." Trunks said in a falsely deep official sounding voice.
"Yes General Trunks?" Goten said in the same sort of voice.
"We better send a letter to the family of the deceased." General Trunks stated and marched off into the house. While trying to figure out how to word the letter, "Dear Mrs. Couch, it is my sad duty to inform you that earlier today, your husband was lost in combat, with our sincerest apologies, General Trunks."
M. Trunks could have sworn he could hear crickets chirping in the background, 'Man, how could my younger self be this weird?" M. Trunks thought to himself. 'Wait, did the author just throw me into this chapter here because he couldn't find any where else to put me. Well while I have the stage just let me say. I like chicken I like liver meow mix meow mix please deliver.' (And he's calling chibi Trunks weird?)
All the Saiyans turned back to the previous spectacle as they felt the ground begin to tremble and felt hot waves of power wash over them. The Saiyans watched in fascination as Goku crouched down closer to the ground and began focusing his energy. Everyone had to shield their eyes as Gokus' aura turned into a bright flash of light accompanied by a yell from the orange gi wearing man. When the Saiyans looked back they all gasped loudly. Goku stood in front of them with long golden hair that reached to his knees. He had striking pupils and no eyebrows.
"Wow." was the only thing Vetee could think to say.
"Well, this is the third level." Goku said in his ultra serious SSJ3 voice. "we're not sure if there are any other levels after this, and I admit that I'm a bit worried about if my hair will get any longer with further levels. It could really get in the way. I wonder if Raditz's hair would get any longer if her were a super saiyan three. Anyway, you will naturally notice the increase in hair mass, muscle mass and the lack of eyebrows." Goku stared at them and powered down to his normal level.
"Trust us." Vegeta said with a smirk and a voice that said 'I'm arrogant and I like it', "If we need to, we could fight off the rest of the saiyan race. Before the planet was destroyed our father" Vegeta said while gesturing towards his sister, "was the most powerful saiyan on the planet, and if I remember correctly I would say that Kakarotts power when he's in the third level is roughly one and a quarter million times as powerful as he was."
"Wow Vegeta." Android 18 said, "I thought I was supposed to be the calculator."
Brenman: Still, lots of talking, but I promise, the wheels of adventure are now turning and stuff will begin to happen. Unfortunately I still have some small talking bits I have to throw in, but they will be down to a minimum.
Have you all heard the legend, if you don't review, the scary monster that lives in your computer is gonna get you. So Review, Review, Review.
