Tien's personal search

Now Before I start as the title indicates this is a mainly Tien story but it will include Chiaotzu at least at the start. This crossover is between a Dragonball Z character, Tien and a Sailor Moon Character which will be Lita/Makoto. These are my favourite characters from both series.

In the Dragonball Z side of things this is set after Freiza was defeated by Trucks and the Z fighters are training for three years. On the Sailor Moon side of things the Sailor Scouts have just defeated Galaxia. The version of Sailor Moon used will be the version the old anime used.

Please remember I don't really care who would win between Z fighters or Sailor Scouts.

Please remember to review.

Chapter 2

Tien headed for the forest in the opposite direction that Makoto had taken, as he walked he felt he was going insane, he couldn't be thinking about it, train with a fighter who was so much weaker than he was but was it right to abandon it. With the fight against the androids fast approaching he couldn't just drop his training could he?

Tien kept walking, until he couldn't stand it any longer and he sat down with his back against a tree. He thought about all the adventures he had been on and he couldn't help but feel his left arm, more specifically the point that the arm had been severed by the sayian, Nappa.

As time marched on he realized he should head back to the temple, as he walked on his heart told him his decision and he his mind was set. He walked out and saw the temple as he approached he noticed someone he hadn't expected, Piccolo.

"What are you doing here?" Tien asked, he stared at the Namek with a mixture of feelings but he felt he knew why the Namekian was there.

"King Kai asked me to come and see you" Piccolo said with the same growl in his voice it had every time he spoke "Don't think I would come to see you otherwise. King Kai said you lost a spar"

Tien groaned "Yeah, she's skilled but her power level's quite low"

Piccolo smiled "Well then you know what you need to do"

"What?"

Piccolo sighed "You must train her"

"Why"

"King Kai said it was the next part of your own training" Piccolo said simply "You must pass your skills to the next as part of your development"

Tien looked up into the sky and said "So I should take an apprentice is that it?"

Piccolo shrugged "It's what I did" and with that he began to fly into the air "See you in a few years"

"Well he seemed nice" Luna said from the door of the temple "Are you going to train Makoto?"

Tien sighed "Looks like I don't have a choice" he looked over to the forest "So is Makoto back yet?"

Luna leapt onto Tien's shoulder "She has not returned yet but I'm sure you can find her" she said smiling.

Tien closed his eyes and began to sense all power levels in the surrounding area, his attention was imminently drawn to a power level, which was about a mile south of their position and Tien started to walk in its direction. As he walked he could hear the sound of someone training and he then approached it and saw Makoto running at a tree. She leapt into the air, kicking the tree as hard as she could, the tree shuddered from the impact and then the tree fell down with a hear shattering thump.

Tien smiled "Well at least you have heart"

"When has heart ever been enough?" asked Makoto as she dusted herself down "I can never protect those dear to me"

Tien smiled "You know, I can understand how you feel because I've felt the same way for too long" he said as he sat down on the fallen tree "I have this friend called Goku, he's the man who made me a better man but trying to help him against the forces that threaten our planet gets harder with every passing day"

Makoto turned and said "Well have you died knowing that your sacrifice is well intentioned but doesn't really change the outcome?"

"Yes" Tien said simply "It was a while ago but I still carry the scars of a battle with the sayians"

"What happened?" Makoto asked very interested.

"Well a year before the battle, a sayian pod landed on Earth and after a fight with the occupant, Goku was killed" Tien said as he remembered "We have known about these things called Dragonballs that could bring him back but before the Sayian died he revealed to Piccolo that two more Sayians that dwarfed his power would be landing on Earth a year from then"

"How'd you learn about this?" asked Makoto suddenly realising, Tien hadn't mentioned himself being involved in the battle.

"One of my friends, Krillin came and told me" Tien explained "We then spend the year training and then the Sayians landed. Sadly Goku had only been wished back the previous day and had to travel from King Kai's place, it was to take him two days. The sayians wasted no time in searching out the most powerful fighters on Earth"

"So that was Piccolo and Krillin?" asked Makoto remembering the names.

"There were six of us. Krillin, Yamcha, Chiaotzu and I had trained together over the year. Piccolo had been training Goku's young son Gohan" Tien said

"Wait a little boy!?" Makoto yelled horrified at the thought "How could you let a little boy fight?!"

Tien sighed as he stared at a small stream that cut its way through the forest "Piccolo. He didn't give us much of a choice. Before the sayians he was our enemy and when he announced he wanted to take Gohan as his student, there wasn't much Krillin could do to stop him" Tien said as he continued to explain "Anyway the battle with the sayians didn't go well, we first lost Yamcha to one of their Saibamen and my dearest friend Chiaotzu died sacrificing himself in vain to stop one of the sayians"

Makoto mouth was dry, as she stared at Tien who had tears streaming down his face and she could no longer stand it. She reached her hand forward and wiped the tears away "That must have been hard to watch" she asked as she could feel tears leak down her face "But what about you?"

"Before Chiaotzu died the sayian, using his raw power cut my left arm off!" Tien said with bitterness filling his words "After Chiaotzu died I became enraged, attacking the sayian in my rage but it was all for not"

"Wh…What!" Makoto stuttered feeling numb "How?"

Tien raised his right hand as the memory filled his mind "I was down, beaten, injured, beyond hope and then I saw it Chiaotzu's ghost in front of me. Apologising for his failure and then he disappeared" Tien cried into his hands "I then realised there was only one thing I could do, I stood up and promising Chiaotzu I would never fail him again, I unleased the Tri Beam!"

"The what?!" asked Makoto in shock

"The Tri beam is my ultimate technique, it focused all the energy in my body and unleased it in one focused blast" Tien explained "There is a drawback, it can shorten or end my life. In the case of Sayians, I had enough time to see that it didn't work and the sayian was still alive. My body then gave out and I died"

Makoto could feel tears leaking down her face again "That reminds me of what happened a few months ago. In the fight against Galaxia, I was killed trying to save my friend, Usagi" she said "It was pointless, I feel like my power keeps getting weaker and I can't get strong enough to help"

Tien smiled he was beginning to admire this girls heart and spirit "Tell you what, do you want to learn from me how to raise your power level and I promise you'll grow stronger" he said as he charged the dodon ray and fired it into the sky. This caused Makoto to look at him shocked "That was the dodon ray"

"H…Ho…How?" asked Makoto clearly studded

"I use a power source called Ki to power my attacks" Tien explained "I sense your power comes from a different source and overall your Ki's power level is about the same as mine was when I first met Goku. We can improve on that"

Makoto sighed wondering about the possibilities "How long will it take?" she asked

"If you train with me for a year, your power level could reach new heights and you'll be able to fight stronger than you ever imagined" Tien said some of his old confidence returning before his tone turned darker "But you'll have to do everything I say and there will be no short cuts! Tomorrow I'll return to the temple and you must prepare for the harshest training of your life"

"Can I think about this?" Makoto asked as she stared at her hands.

Tien nodded "Tomorrow" it was then that Tien flew off into the air and headed towards the town in the distance "I hope she'll be strong enough"

Makoto walked towards the temple as she thought it over as she noticed Luna sitting waiting for her next to a tree "That story was horrible" Luna cried as she jumped onto Makoto shoulder "That poor man"

Makoto nodded "I want to learn from him but…"

"But what?!" asked Luna concern heavy on her face

"Am I strong enough?" Makoto asked "He seems so powerful"

Luna sighed "In the past I would have told you that it was too dangerous but your now experienced enough to make your own decisions. Bear this in mind though, nothing worth doing is easy and you're strong enough to face any challenge!" she said with a reassuring smile.

Makoto smiled as they emerged into the clearing around the temple, the wind blew through the flowers causing the loose petals to fly around and Makoto knew her next move as she approached the temple. She was going to train harder than ever before and with Tien as her instructor, she would never feel weak again! It was then that they heard a lot of screaming coming from the path that led up to the temple.

Up the path came a panicked looking Usagi "Makoto! Flying man! Help!" she screamed as she ran up to her. Usagi may have matured into a strong defender of Earth but even the mighty Sailor Moon still had her moments of the old Usagi "He was wearing green and he had three eyes!" Usagi screamed.

"Relax, that's Tien, he's friendly and he's going to tech me" Makoto said in a calm and controlled voice "He might even tech you, if you ask?"

Usagii shook her head "I'm just came to drop off your shopping and I'm not the training type!" she said as she rubs her stomach "I've got a date tonight as it is"

As Usagii left Makoto restarted her workout regime, Tien training no doubt would be one of her greatest undertaking and she was as nervous as she had ever been. As she ran up to a tree, there came a horrific blast from behind her and out emerged a tall man. His evil smile turned towards her.

"I have no way off this planet so I may do as I please!" he yelled charging forward, Makoto dodged the attack and landed a kick on his neck "Is that all you got?!"

Makoto yelled "Don't bet on it!" as she pulled out her transforming tool "Jupiter Power Make up!" as she transformed she prepared her attack.

The man stood up and yelled "Don't make me laugh, a pathetic human like you, cannot compare to the wrath of the sayians!"

Off to the side Luna screamed "That's the race Tien mentioned!"

Makoto realised she may not be able to stop the rampaging brute "Go get Tien!" she yelled to Luna "I can hold him off for a short time!"

"MOON TIREA MAGIC!" Sailor moon arrived and said "Makoto are you okay? I heard the explosion!"

The man shrugged off the attack and cackled "Two sluts cannot stand up to me!" as he stepped forward "I'll use you both!"

"USAGII! Get out of here!" Makoto realised his intensions and knew her loyalty to her friend was unquestionable "Get Tien, I'll hold him off as long as I can!"

As Sailor moon ran for the town, Makoto got herself between the horrible monster before her and launched another. The sayian however brushed off the attack and laughed "Is that all you got, bitch!" he said as he ran forward and brought his fist down but Makoto avoided the attack by the smallest of margins "You're pretty fast!"

Makoto leapt away and shook in fear this monster was stronger than any opponent she had fought alone. She prayed and hopped for help "I will never surrender!" she screamed trying to sound brave.

The sayian laughed even louder "Once I'm finished subduing you, I'll go after your friend!"

Meanwhile

In other world King kai could sense the fight and it horrified him. Despite his considerable investment in the Z fighters, he watched and prayed for the other heroes of Earth. From the single heroes fighting to defend a single city to the hero teams who fought to defeat evil that embodied the darkest branches of evil.

He then yelled "Tien! Your new friend is in trouble!" he hoped Tien heard the message.

Back on Earth

Makoto's fight was looking worse by the passing seconds and she was filled with despair. One of her arms was already broken and the sayian was taunting her with ideas of what he planned to do to her. She needed help and she needed it soon or her fate was foregone conclusion.

Luna suddenly jumped and sank her teeth into the sayian's arm "OW! You stupid fur ball!" the sayian yelled as he grabbed Luna and threw her towards the city "Now back to you!"

Makoto screamed "Luna no!" tears rolling from her eyes as she found a small amount of power remaining inside her and fired off another electrical attack "You'll pay for what you did!"

The sayian was unharmed by the attack and stepped forward "I'll pay you with a vow!" he growled "You are mine!"

End of Chapter 2

Author's note- Okay I know what people are going to say its Nappa isn't it and how did he come back? It may not be Nappa okay! I don't know yet that's why I didn't include his name! Alright for those of you who have been following this story I'm sorry this took so long but I hope you appreciate that I was trying to adjust it and I'm not sure if I got the best possible chapter but I tried my best. The next chapter hopefully won't take half as long.
