Author's Note: I don't regret that chapter name one bit.
Disclaimer: I do not own Dragonball Z. At all. I only own my fond childhood memories of it and some of the movies on DVD.
Fight 26
Henshin A Go Go Baby
He was still unsure, but trusted her. Bulma was a genius. She had created the Dragon Radar when she was sixteen after all. Strapping on the watch he saw that it had three button, but waited for her. "Now I should remind you that I am a scientist. Not a fashionista. Considering I also only used what I could find around here for the outfit and I haven't slept in about fifty hours . . ."
She giggled unsettlingly, "Well you'll see."
Thoroughly creeped out Gohan nodded, "What do the buttons do?"
"Two of them do normal functions that most digital watches have today. Like a stop watch or setting an alarm." Her smile took on an excited edge after she showed him how to work those regular features. "It's the third button that's special. By tapping it your clothes are swapped out for your costume." Bulma stepped back and nodded to him, but when he pressed it nothing happened.
The genius blinked for a moment then face-palmed. "Whoops. I forgot to be more specific. You have to activate it twice in a set time frame. This is to avoid an accidental transformation that would reveal yourself to any around you."
That made sense. Smiling at her, "Thank you for taking that into consideration Bulma." He tapped it two times in succession. When he did his clothes changed like she said it would. He quickly found a mirror to examine his appearance. He was in some kind of orange helmet with a visor and two antenna's. A green tunic with a red cape attached and black underclothes. The gloves and boots looked like they belonged to a saiyan armor set. Considering what she had said though that was probable.
They stood in silence for several moments before Gohan turned around and gave her a thumbs up. "It's amazing Bulma! Thank you!"
"You're welcome."
Gohan turned back to the mirror and, to Bulma's amusement, began to pose ridiculously. She burst out into laughter, "You've been watching Sentai EX with Goten again haven't you?"
He visibly flushed even with the helmet, "No!" If he let her know that he was actually a big fan of the popular live action show he would never live it down. A team of ordinary teenagers becoming costumed superheroes to fight monsters was awesome!
