Chapter 2:
An Earthling survivor!
Quest to find the Turtle Hermit
Two weeks later, Cyan and Kairi go to the forest seperately to get more wood. Suddenly, Cyan runs into a bald person. He was even shorter than Cyan. He wears a martial artist's outfit and looks properly trained.
"You're... a Saiyan!" said the bald man. "No choice then... l'll fight you!" He then attacks Cyan immediately. Cyan was blasted away. He tries to tell the man that he isn't like the other Saiyans, but the man doesn't believe him. Cyan left with no other choices, attack him.
The fight was fairly one-sided. Cyan throws as many punches and kicks at the man, but he managed to either dodge or block all of them. His attacks are too quick for Cyan to handle. Cyan was left against the wall, and the man charges a punch covered in energy towards him. "This is for all the Earthlings that you Saiyans mercilessly killed!!"
"STOP!!!" Kairi found them, and shouted right before the man finishes Cyan off. "He is not like the other Saiyans! He was raised by Earthlings, he's a good person."
The man stops his punch, Cyan falls down and can barely stands up after that. The man said he has been fighting against the Saiyans for a long time, and they were chasing him. There were too many of them, so he has to run away. Cyan and Kairi invites him to the village and they all take a rest.
Cyan ask: "Wow, you're really strong for an Earthling. What's your name?"
"My name? It's Krillin."
"Krillin... can you train me and Kairi? You are so much stronger than us, and we want to get back the peace for Earth just like you. We need to be stronger."
"Of course I will. However, I'm also looking for a person to train me. Do you guys know about the Turtle Hermit?"
"No?"
"He is known as the strongest Earthling. He lives on an island, but it never gets invaded by the Saiyans because he is strong enough to beat all those that tries to take his home."
"Oh wow! He sounds amazing! Let's go meet him then!"
"It's not that easy. We have to literally cross deserts, mountains and seas to get there. And as you know, the Saiyans are all over the place."
Kairi adds: "You are strong enough to handle the Saiyans. We will train under you before going out there, it's to dangerous. We also don't have much food left..."
Krillin: "So let's train for about a month. There should be just enough food, and with Cyan's potential as a Saiyan, we should get much stronger.
Cyan: "Alright! Thank you very much Krillin!"
Krillin: "No problem. By the way, Cyan, if you're a Saiyan, why don't you have a tail?
Cyan: "My former master cut it off. He once grabbed my tail and I lose all my power, so he said it's a weakness."
After finding a new friend, Cyan's adventure continues. He and Kairi trained under Krillin for one month, and they have become much stronger. The food starts to running out, forcing them to continue their adventure.
Krillin: "Hehe... you guys have become much stronger! Especially you, Cyan! You're stronger than me when we first met! But of course, I got much stronger as well."
Kairi: "Uh... our food is running out. Considering how strong we are right now, I guess we should start moving. Let's go meet the Turtle Hermit."
Krillin: "Okay, let's move. First off we need to cross a huge desert. That place used to have a lot of bandits, but they start disappearing. Because, you know, Saiyans."
Cyan: "Let's go! I'm excited!"
As the three continue on their journey, a shadow looms over them in the forest.
