Part 3: "The Saiyan Saga" (III)
"Wait a minute," Krillin said. "We can wish Goku back with the Dragonballs! We already have the Four Star Dragonball…"
"Huh?" Usagi said.
"Yeah, you're right," Ranma said. "All we need to do is collect all seven, and we can make our wish."
"And I have the Dragonball Radar, too," Bulma said. "We can wish for anything-"
"Uh-hum," Usagi said.
"After we wish back Goku, of course…"
"Great!" Krillin said. "Then, we can FINALLY have peace and sanity return to our world of ours-"
"Um, guys," Roshi said, as he picked up some sort of headgear. It appeared to be active, as a light on it blinked at regular intervals.
"What's this?"
"Yeah, it looks like some kind of radar scouter," Oolong said. "It looked like it belongs to that guy who blew himself and Goku to pieces."
"Do you mind?" Ranma said. "I lost my son, you know!"
"Um, sorry?"
"I think I hear something coming from the earpiece" Krillin asked.
"Let me see if I can fix it," Bulma said, as she fiddles with it…
SQUAWK!
"Did you hear that, Vegeta?" said one voice over the comlink. "That planet Radditz went to have wish-granting 'Dragonballs'. You know what this means?"
"It means that I get to have more power, Nappa," said the other voice on the comlink.
"Yeah, but it's kind of far, this place called 'Chikyuu', Vegeta," replied Nappa. "It could take a solar cycle before we can claim these Dragonballs for ourselves."
"Fine. But when we do claim the Dragonballs for ourselves, we'll make MY wish…after killing everyone on the planet! HAHAHAHAHA-!"
CLICK!
"Well, crap," Roshi said.
"Does this mean that more of these killers are coming?" Usagi said fearfully. "Does this mean that we'll lose more of our friends and family?"
"Usagi, calm down," Ranma said, as he noticed that Usagi's eyes were glowing green.
"Are we?" Usagi said angrily, as she exploded from within her being…
"RRRRRAAARRRGH!" Hulkusagi roared, as the green-skinned, she-monster raged. She towered at fifteen feet, and was packed with muscles. And what was left of her tattered clothing barely covered her "modest". This, of course, did not go unnoticed.
"Wha-?" Krillin and Roshi said in unison, as they suffered from nose bleeds…again.
"What power is this?" Piccolo said, as he prepared to fight this new version of his old foe.
"Usagi, are through raging?" Ranma said nonchalantly.
"Yes, Hulkusagi done venting," Hulkusagi said with a sigh. "Lost son, too much for Hulkusagi. Sad."
"Will Usagi be okay like this?" Bulma asked.
"Oh, well, sure," Ranma said. "Give her a few hours to release the energy within her to get back to normal."
"How…how did she become like this in the first place?" Krillin said. "And why didn't she use this form to fight Radditz?"
"Hulkusagi turned into 'she-monster' by Maestro, in other dimension," Hulkusagi said in stilted speak. "No like being she-monster. Feel like freak. Fight as puny Usagi instead. Much, much better for Hulkusagi, Hulkusagi thinks."
"Besides, we had already beaten Radditz using team-work," Ranma said. "And if one…Saiyan was a problem, dealing with two could be a real challenge."
"Maybe this version of Usagi can be put to good use," Bulma said. "In fact, maybe I can develop a booster serum to help everyone fight these new guys."
"And Hulkusagi can help," Hulkusagi said. "Hulkusagi no talk smart, but is very smart."
"Um, okay. At any rate, if I can get samples of everyone here, I can at least have a starting point where I can begin research on a booster serum."
"Well, you won't have to worry about getting 'samples' from HIM," Piccolo said, as he points to a comatose Roshi, as he lies in a pool of his own blood due to excessive nose bleeding. "But, nevertheless, you can't substitute drugs for training."
"Piccolo's right," Ranma said. "Everyone has to train, if we are to stop these new Saiyans-"
"Grandpa, can I train, too?" Gohan asked.
"Gohan?"
"I want to get Daddy back," Gohan said shyly. "I want to get the Dragonball before the bad guys show up."
"I don't know," Ranma said. "Your mother didn't want you to become a martial artist…"
"But I want Daddy back!" Gohan said, as his aura flared. "Please?"
"Hmmmm…"
Hours later, at the Saotome residence, Ranma and Usagi talks to Chi-Chi about training Gohan, in preparation for the arrival of the Saiyans, while assuring her that Goku will return.
"Are you…sure?" Chi-Chi asked. "Will Gohan be okay?"
"No one will be okay if we don't deal with these new guys," Ranma said. "And I will be there to help Gohan get ready."
"Chi-Chi, I really wish there was some other way out of this," Usagi said, as she reached over and held her daughter-in-law's hand gently. "Even if Ranma and I could move the millions of people to a new world, why would these Saiyans become satisfied with just this world? And even if we stop THEM, there is always the possibility that these Saiyans are backed by someone else…"
"Chi-Chi, you have my word that Goku and Gohan will get out of this," Ranma said. "But…you have to trust us."
Chi-Chi looked towards her father, the Ox King, and then at her in-laws.
"I will hold you both to your word, Ranma," Chi-Chi said. "But make sure that Gohan keeps up with his education, whenever he's not in training."
"Okay," Ranma said. "You have my word…"
Later, back at Kame House…
"Okay, Gohan, here's the plan," Ranma said, as he and the so-called "Z Warriors" (a made-up name that Bulma came up with, much to everyone's chagrin) gathered around the son of Goku. "Master Roshi will start you off in your training…"
"You mean I'm going to taught martial arts by the man Mom said was a pervert?" Gohan said.
"Ah, kids say the darndest things," Roshi said through gritted teeth.
"And then, Piccolo will complete your training," Ranma said.
"Yeah, if you live through it," Piccolo growled.
"Um, okay," Gohan said nervously.
"And I will be there for you every step of the way," Ranma said. "You will also learn the tenets of MY martial arts style: the Musabetsu Kakuto-ryu, which will allow you to adapt what you learn from Roshi and Piccolo."
"Okay, Grandpa," Gohan said.
"Also, during your training with Roshi, for six months, everyone else will be doing their own training, in preparation for the training at Kami's Lookout, which will take place when you get training from Piccolo."
"That's right," Usagi said. "Of course, I will be working with Bulma to create that 'booster serum' she was talking about."
"Just as long as I don't become big and green, and talk in 'third-person speak', I'm game," Krillin said.
"No, you idiot," Bulma said. "A booster serum would enhance what you are, not turn you into a rage monster."
"You took samples from everybody," Yamcha said. "What progress did you come up with?"
"So far, I believe that the samples from Gohan may be the way forward," Bulma said. "On account of the fact that he's half-alien."
"I still can't believe that Goku was an alien," Tien Shenhan said. "In fact, so is Piccolo."
"What of it?" Piccolo said.
"Um, just saying."
"Humph."
"Well, if nothing else, I wish us all good luck," Usagi said, as she looked up into the heavens. "And we all are going to need it…"
