Rating for this would be PG for some language and situations. *-----------------------------* Bulma knew her little sister Rina was special. After all, she had magic powers and could fly. She never knew how special she was until Rina stowed away aboard her motorcycle when Bulma set out to find the Dragonballs. "It gets lonely out here on the road. I wish I had someone to talk to," Bulma said out loud. "You mean like me?" A familiar voice asked. Bulma stopped the motorcycle and opened up the back compartment. Rina jumped out and said, "Boo!!!" "Rina!!! What are you doing hiding in my motorcycle?! Mom and Dad are going to kill you for stowing away!!!" "Keep your shirt on Bulma!!! I left them a note that I was going with you." "But what about your schooling?" "I'm already grades ahead of kids my age. I don't think that taking a little time off to be with my big sister is going to put me that much behind!!" "Alright, but . . . " "But what?" "But if it gets too dangerous, you're going home!" "Bulma!!! Danger is my middle name!!!" "Rina, you don't have a middle name." "That was a joke, you dork!!" "Don't call me a dork, or I'll send your little ass home right now!!" "I'm telling Kassan that you said ass!!!" "ARGH!!!! Why couldn't I have a puppy instead of a little sister?" Bulma asked putting her head in her hands. "Cause puppies can't do this!" Rina said as energy blasted from her hands and disintegrated a tree that had fallen down, blocking the road. "Well, maybe you will be useful after all," Bulma smiled to her little sister. "Bulma, there's a fish in the road!!!" Rina screamed at the sister. "That's silly, Rina, a fish in the road!!" Bulma said turning her head to correct her. "BULMA!!!!" Rina screamed right before they crashed into this huge fish. A little boy jumped out from in front of the fish and threatened to beat up the monster that attacked him from behind. "Bulma, get off me!!!" Rina said as she threw her sister off and onto the ground in front of the crashed motorcycle. "You can't have my fish!!! You'll have to fight me for it!!" The little boy shouted. "I don't want your smelly old fish!!!" Bulma yelled at him. Rina laughed at the scene peeking out between a crack in the motorcycle. The little boy started to attack Bulma, then Rina jumped out in front of her sister. "You leave my sister alone!!!" She exclaimed. "You attacked me!! What's a sister?" The little boy returned. "You were dragging a fish in the road!!!" Bulma screamed. "He doesn't know what a sister is?" Rina looked at Bulma. "Be prepared to fight!!!" The little boy grabbed a red pole from his back. "Rina, what are we gonna do?!" "I'm gonna fight him!" "Wait, we're humans just like you!!!" Bulma said nervously. "Bulma, he has a tail!!! No human has a tail!" Rina whispered. "You don't look human!" The little boy said. He turned around and came flying at them with his leg in the air. "He's gonna kick us!!" Bulma screamed covering her face. Rina just put up her arms and energy beamed from her hands, knocking the little boy into a tree. Bulma opened her eyes and brought her hands down. "I'm still alive?!" "Yes, thanks to me," Rina said as she walked over the boy who was unconscious against the tree. "Did you kill him?" Bulma walked over slowly to Rina. "No, I didn't kill him. I just knocked him back a little. He was gonna ruin that pretty little face of yours if I hadn't have done that." Bulma pulled her bottom eyelid down and stuck her tongue out at her little sister. "Well, come on, help me pick him up." "Are you that weak? He's just a kid!!" "He's heavy for a kid," she puffed. Rina walked over and picked up the little boy and placed him on her shoulder. "I bet that's his house right there," she said pointing over to a pagoda. "Yeah, the least we can do is put him back in his house." Bulma followed Rina as she carried the little boy with the tail into the pagoda. Immediately, Bulma saw the four-star dragonball on a dresser. "It's a dragonball!!!" Bulma screamed in delight. She ran over to the dresser and took the object into her hands. "Bulma, that's his dragonball. At least you wait until he wakes up to ask him if you can have it!" Rina said as she put the little boy on the bed. "When he wakes up Rina, he's going to be mad. I don't plan on being around when that happens." "So, we'll just explain to him what happened. I'm sure he'll understand." "He didn't know that we were human!!!! How are we going to explain you blasting him?" The little boy was starting to come to and Bulma hid behind her sister. "What? Where am I?" He said groggily. "You're in your pagoda," Rina explained. "Hey!! You two attacked me!!!!" He jumped to his feet ready to fight. "See what I told you!!!" Bulma said shaking. "My name is Rina. I'm a girl, and a human, uh, just like you." "My name is Goku. What's a girl?" "My name's Bulma. You don't know what a girl is?" Bulma asked coming out from behind Rina. "No, I've never seen anyone like you two." "Have you been living here alone?" Bulma asked. "No, my grandpa was living with me. But he's dead," the little boy frowned. "So, you're all alone?" Rina asked. "No, my grandpa is on my dresser," he bounced off the bed and ran over to the dresser. "His grandpa is on the dresser?" Bulma asked. She then looked at Rina and mouthed, 'The dragonball!' "Where's grandpa?! He was right here when I left!!!" Goku started to get angry. "Goku, we have your 'grandpa,'" Rina explained. "You stole my grandpa!!!!! Now you're really gonna fight me!!!" He said as he extended the red pole. "We'll give it back!!! Here!!!!" Bulma trembled as she gave Goku back the dragonball. The little boy took it from her and placed it on the dresser. "It's okay, Grandpa. Those two ugly whatever they are took you, but I have you back." "He's talking to a dragonball!!!!!" Rina whispered to Bulma. "Uh, Goku, listen. What you call, 'grandpa,' is actually a dragonball. I'm on a quest to find all seven so that I can make a wish," Bulma explained trying to get closer to him. "There's seven of these? I have seven grandpas?!" "Uh, no. That is a dragonball, not your grandpa," Bulma explained. "My grandpa gave this to me, and after he died I thought he went to live in there," Goku showed Rina the ball. "Goku, your grandpa doesn't live inside the dragonball. He lives inside of you. He obviously loved you a great deal for you to think so highly of him," Rina smiled. "Yes, he did. He taught me how to fight." "Could we use your dragonball so that we can get all seven?" Bulma asked. "Only if I can come with you!" "The more, the merrier!!!" Rina exclaimed. 'Great! Now I have two brats tagging along!' Bulma thought. Goku looked very curiously at Bulma and Rina for a moment. He thought how could two strange looking beings be human? He took his power pole and lifted up Bulma's skirt. "Why you little!!!!" She yelled as she was getting ready to smack him. "You don't have a tail! How could you be human?" "Humans don't have tails. You're the first we've seen with a tail!!!" Bulma screamed. "Rina, do you have a tail?" "No, and you won't either if you try to lift up my dress!!" Goku, Bulma, and Rina packed up Goku's belongings and set out to find another dragonball. While Bulma's motorcycle sped along, Goku hung onto Rina who was hanging onto Bulma. "What is this thing?" Goku asked Rina. "It's a motorcycle." "Haven't you seen a motorcycle before?" Bulma asked. "Have you seen anything before?" She laughed as they sped along until nightfall. The three stopped at a clearing and decided to make camp for the night. Bulma pulled out a capsule packet and hunted for the instant house. "I'm tired and hungry!!!" Goku stated before yawning. "Me too!" Rina agreed. "Okay you two, hold on! Ah! Here it is!!!" Bulma pulled out a pink capsule. A cloud of smoke appeared as the capsule hit the ground. When the smoke cleared, Goku was in shock as a house suddenly stood where there was none earlier. "Girls are some kind of witches!!!!" He yelled taking hold of his power pole. "Goku!!! Put that thing down!!! It's just a capsule," Rina said walking over to him putting his power pole down. Bulma couldn't believe how ignorant this kid was. She was about to ask him if he'd been living in the woods, but she already knew the answer to that question. "Come on, let's go in so that we can eat." "I'm not going in there!!!" Goku stated as he crossed his arms. "Goku, it's a house. You know like the pagoda you lived in? It's just a house from a capsule. It's not gonna bite!!!" Bulma said sweetly. "Nope, I'm not going in there!!!" "Listen kid, you'll either go inside this house or sleep out here on the ground!!!" Bulma barked then turned and went inside the house. She slammed the door behind her. "Come on," Rina said taking him by the arm. "I'll protect you from that monster!!!" He said jumping in front of the little girl. "This is an instant house. It's not a monster; it won't attack you. You live in it. Trust me, it won't harm you," she explained holding out her hand. Goku took it uncertain whether or not he should trust this purple-haired little girl. She brought Goku into the house where Bulma was watching television. "What's that!!!! There's a man trapped inside!!!" Goku shouted as he brought out his power pole. "Don't you dare bust that TV!!!!" Bulma said getting in front of him. "I have to help that man!!!" "It's a television, Goku. It's okay," Rina smiled as she took him by the hand and led him over to the kitchen counter. "Do you like peanut butter and jelly?" "I don't even know what that is!!!" "It's food, you silly boy!!!" Bulma said with her head in her hands. "What did you usually eat?" "Fish." "I like fish, too, but I like other foods." "Other foods?" "Oh god, he doesn't know other foods!?!?" Bulma said falling down. "What's wrong with her?" "Oh, never mind her. I'll fix us a peanut butter and jelly sandwich." "Is that good?" "It's my favourite sandwich!!!" Rina smiled to him. He could tell he could trust her, but that Bulma girl he didn't know about. He'd have to keep an eye on her. She made him and her two sandwiches and set them on the table. "Do you like milk?" "Yes!!" "Okay, you know what milk is," Rina laughed as she got two glasses and poured some for both of them. "Come on, sit at the table with me, Goku." "Okay," he said as he got up into the chair. They were chowing down on their sandwiches when Bulma suddenly got a strong whiff of something. "What is that smell?!?!" "I don't smell anything," Rina said with her mouthful of sandwich. "Don't talk with your mouth full. It's coming from over there were you two are! Did you take a bath before you left this morning?" She asked her little sister. "Yes, I take a bath every morning, thank you!" "I haven't taken a bath since Grandpa died," Goku said with a peanut butter and jelly smile. "How long has that been?!" Bulma exclaimed. "Well, let's see . . . there's been six new moons." "Six months?!!? You haven't taken a bath in six months!?!?!" Bulma screamed. "I've been in the water fishing. Does that count?" He asked Rina. "No, I'm afraid not. You definitely need to take a bath!!!" "How could anyone go six months without bathing!?!?!" Bulma asked as she took hold of Goku's ear and dragged him to the bathroom. Rina hopped down from her chair and ran off after them. She couldn't miss this!!! "Take off your clothes, Goku." "Okay," he said before stripping down to nothing. "You're supposed to cover your front!!!" She exclaimed handing him a towel. "Like this?" He asked putting the towel over his face. "NO!!!" Rina burst out laughing, but Bulma didn't think it was so funny. "Rina, what are you doing in here?" "I wouldn't miss this for anything!!" "He's naked!!" "So, it's not like I haven't seen a naked boy before." "What?!?! Where!?!?!" "In one of my schoolbooks. You know anatomy?" "Oh," Bulma said as she turned Goku around. "Your tail is attached!!!" "Yeah." "Did you think he pinned it on?" Rina asked. "No, but I did think it was fake and attached to his pants." Bulma didn't know what to make of this little boy. He was very strong for his age, but so was her little sister. But she didn't have a tail!!! 'I wonder if he is human,' Bulma thought to herself. Rina laughed at Goku and Bulma as she bathed him. That Goku sure was a strange little kid-- and a powerful one at that. 'But where did he get that tail?' she thought to herself. After becoming bored with Bulma bathing Goku, she returned to the kitchen and her peanut butter and jelly sandwich. After finishing giving Goku a bath, Bulma settled into the tub to soak herself. She was just a happy-go-lucky girl until she saw Goku standing next to the tub. "GOKU!!!!" Rina could hear her sister scream. She ran into the bathroom to find Goku explaining to Bulma that all he wanted to do was help her wash her back like she had his. He told her it would be hard for her since she had no tail. Rina laughed and pointed at Bulma. "Rina!!! Get him out of here!!!!" Bulma blushed. "Why? I wasn't doing anything. I just wanted to help." "Come on Goku, I'll explain why Bulma's having a cow," she said as she took the very confused little boy by the arm. She led him into another bathroom and sat him down on the toilet seat. "See, Bulma's a young woman--- a teenager." "What's a woman? And a teenager?' "See, Goku, a woman is a girl when she grows up. You'll become a man when you grow up. Bulma is a teenager-- that's a human stuck between being a boy or a girl and becoming a man or a woman." "Really?" "Yeah. See, you and I are just kids. It doesn't matter if we see each other naked." "It doesn't?" "No, see boys and girls... well, it's just not right for a boy to see a young woman naked." Rina turned on the faucet to start her bath. "Okay, if you say so. Are you gonna take a bath, Rina?" "Yeah," she said as she undressed. "Hey! You don't have a thing!!" Goku pointed. "Of course not!! I'm a girl." "So that's the difference between boys and girls!" Goku exclaimed. "Yes, now you see," Rina smiled at him. "Can I help you wash your back?" He asked. "Sure," she said tossing him the back brush. "A little to the left," she suggested as Goku scrubbed her back. "Rina, how did you learn to shoot energy from your hands?" "I don't know. I've always been able to do it." "Could you teach me?" "Sure, if you teach me how to do that karate stuff!" "It's a deal then," Goku said handing her back the brush. Bulma heard water running in the next bathroom as she dried herself off. 'Hmm, Rina must be taking a bath. I wonder where Goku is,' she thought putting on her bathrobe. She came out to find an empty house. Then, she heard giggling coming from the other bathroom. She flew open the door to find Rina in the tub with Goku standing next to it. "What is he doing in here while you're taking a bath?!" "He helped me wash my back." "Did he see you naked?!" "Yes, I did," he grinned. "Rina!!!! That's not right!!!!" "Bulma, we're just kids. I don't have the things you do, so it doesn't matter." "It does matter!! You're a girl, and he's a boy!!!" "Rina showed me the difference between boys and girls!!!" "I bet she did!!! I can't believe you would strip naked in front of him!!" "We're just kids!! It's not like we're going to have sex!!" "What's sex?!" "How do you know about sex?" Bulma asked shocked. "I learned it in school. You know I'm just a couple of years behind you in school." Bulma fumed at her smart-elec little sister. She was just five years old, but was way smarter than she was!!!! "What's sex?" Goku scratched his head. "Uh, you tell him!" Bulma said blushing before running out of the room. "I'll tell you later, much later!" Rina said before asking him to hand her a towel. She dried off and got dressed for bed. The two children went back to the kitchen were Bulma was having her supper. "Goku, you sleep on the couch over there. Rina and I have our own rooms," Bulma explained. "Okay!" He said gulping down his milk. "Your table manners are atrocious!!!" "What's that mean?" "It means that you don't talk while you're eating or drinking." "Oh, okay." The three finished their suppers and went to bed. Goku really tried to get comfy on the couch, but just couldn't. He tossed; he turned, but to no avail, he just couldn't get to sleep. He gathered his blanket up and headed for Bulma's room. He opened the door and was going to ask if he could sleep in her bed, but remembered how angry she got when he asked if he could help her wash her back. "I bet Rina would let me sleep in her bed!" He exclaimed softly. He made his way down the hall and opened Rina's door. The light from the hall crept in and woke up the little girl. "Goku? What's wrong?" She asked rubbing her eye with the back of her hand. "I can't sleep. That couch is too hard." "Well, come on," she said moving over to make room for him. "You can sleep in my bed with me. It's nice and comfy," she smiled a sleepy smile. Goku hopped up on the bed and got under the blanket with her. "I brought my blanket," he offered. "Just throw it over this one. It'll keep us extra warm. Goodnight, Goku," Rina said turning away from him. "Good-night," he yawned. Rina woke up sometime in the night with Goku's head resting on her shoulder. He was such an innocent little boy. She smiled before kissing his forehead and returning back to her slumber. "WHAT IN THE HELL IS HE DOING IN YOUR BED?!?!?!" Bulma screamed at the top of her lungs. Rina was so startled by Bulma's ranting, she let loose a blast of energy before she realized it was only her sister. "What is wrong with you?! You know not to scare me like that!!!!" "I know that you may know more than me, but you're still just a little girl." Goku hadn't budged. He was still asleep! "He came in here last night because that couch you made him sleep on was too hard and he couldn't sleep. What else was I supposed to do?" "Make him sleep on the floor?" "If the couch was too hard for him, what do you think the floor would've been?!" "You're acting like you're my age!" "So, you let boys sleep in your bed?!" Rina laughed. "Rina!!!!!! Oh never mind!!!" Bulma huffed as she stormed out of the room. Once again, her little sister had gotten the best of her. Dragonball--With A Different Twist Part II by SSBra "Good morning, Rina!" Goku said right up in the little girl's face. "Oh, Goku, your breath is terrible!" She declared holding her nose. "Sorry," he smiled. "You've gotta brush your teeth!!!" "I haven't done that since . . ." "Let me guess, your grandpa died." "Yep!" "I have an extra one in my bag. You can have it!" Rina rummaged through her bag and handed him a toothbrush. "Ah, do I have to?" "Yes, it smells like something died in your mouth!" She exclaimed kicking him out the door. "Gosh, girls are hard to get along with!" He said as he made his way to the bathroom. He didn't even bother to knock, he just walked in finding Bulma in her bathrobe. "Goku!!!! Haven't you ever heard of knocking?" "Yeah, but only on front doors." "Never mind. Get out!!! Wait your turn!!!!" Bulma said while steam was literally coming out of her ears. "But Rina said I had to brush my teeth!!!" "You can brush them later. I have to put my face on." "You have a face." "I mean I have to put my makeup on." "Oh, is that the stuff that makes you look better?" Goku barely got out before Bulma threw a shampoo bottle at him. "Gosh, I just need to brush my teeth," he said. He remembered that there were two bathrooms and ran down the hall to the other one. This time he knocked. Bulma threw bottles at him, but Rina could throw energy blasts at him. "Who is it?" Rina called. "It's me, Goku." "Come on in. I'm just about done." Goku opened the door to find Rina standing on a stepstool brushing her hair. "Bulma threw me out of the other bathroom." "She did?" Rina laughed. "The toothpaste's here. It's all your's!" She climbed down from the stool and waved to him. "Breakfast will be ready soon, so hurry up!" Goku brushed his teeth, well he tried to, the way his grandfather showed him. But all he really succeeded in doing was making a monumental mess in the bathroom. He smelled something good to eat and forgot all about the mess. "Is food ready?" He asked running to the table. "Yes! Don't run to the table!" Bulma barked. Rina laughed causing Bulma to glare at her. The three ate their breakfast and started to plan their next move. "The next Dragonball is located in the third quadrant," Bulma showed her sister with the bleeper. "I see. Looks like there's another one over in the sixth quadrant." "What's a quadrant?" Goku asked with a mouth full of cereal. "Goku!! Don't talk with your mouth full!! You'd think you were raised in the woods!" "He was," Rina stated. "ARRGGGHHHHHH!!!! Just get your stuff together and meet me outside in five minutes!!!! We're leaving!!" Bulma stormed off. "Goku, you can't talk with your mouth full. You'll get me in trouble!" Rina laughed. "I'm sorry," he hung his head down. "It's okay. Just remember to not talk with your mouth full of food," she smiled to him. "C'mon. We gotta get our stuff together," Rina hopped down from her stool and took Goku down with her. The two ran to her room and he helped her pack. "Girls have lots of junk!" He declared holding up some of her hair bows. "I know. I hate those things, but Kassan makes me wear them." "Who's Kassan?" "That's my mom. You don't know what a mother is?" "No." "That's the person who gave birth to you." "Gave birth?" "Okay, your Kassan is your Grandpa's daughter." "Oh. I never knew my Kassan." "I'm sorry, Goku," she said putting a hand on his shoulder. "It's okay. My grandpa raised me good enough!" He smiled brightly. "He sure did!!!" Rina laughed. The two ran out of the house just as Bulma was about to yell for them. "Goku and Rina reporting for inspection, sir," she said as she saluted Bulma. Bulma smiled and laughed in spite of herself. She could be mad at her little sister, but not for long. "Okay, space cadets, let's go!" The two children hopped onto the back of the motorcycle with Goku hanging on for life onto Rina. "Could she slow down a little?" Goku asked Rina. "Hey Bulma, could you get your foot out of the carberator?" "Listen, we need to get to the next Dragonball fast. Just hang on!" Bulma said before stepping even harder onto the gas pedal. "Bulma!!!!!!!!" Goku exclaimed. The three got closer to the Dragonball, according to Bulma's bleeper. Goku just barely managed to hang onto his life as Bulma whisked around curves and didn't slow down one little bit. "It's here!!!" Bulma squealed in delight jumping off her motorcycle. "Thank Kami!!!" Rina said trying to get Goku to relinquish his death grip from around her ribs. "Goku, we've stopped!! You can let go now." "Are you sure, Rina?" The little boy asked very frightened. "Yes, come on! Bulma's found another Dragonball!!!" Rina said as she hopped down from the motorcycle. Goku followed suit and caught up with Rina and Bulma who were stopped dead in their tracks by a huge vampire bat. "What's that?" He scratched his head. "That's our end!!!" Bulma cried. "That's right my pretty little ones. Now hand over the other Dragonballs, and I won't hurt you too bad." "Don't do it., Bulma!!" Rina yelled. "You're not giving my grandpa to that thing!" Goku said as he got his power pole out. The bat just laughed. "Listen little monkey boy, if you think I'm afraid of you and two girls, you've gotta another think coming." "Power pole extend!" He yelled as the pole extended and knocked the bat back about twenty feet. "Way to go, Goku!!!" Bulma hugged him. "Yeah, that was something, Goku!" Rina cheered. The bat got back up and grabbed Bulma's bag where she kept the Dragonballs. "I'll just take these!" The bat laughed maniacally as he made his getaway. "He's got our Dragonballs!!!" Bulma screamed. "Let's go!" Rina picked up Goku and flew with him high into the clouds. "Rina!!! You can fly!!!" "Yep, I can. Now use that pole of your's and knock the bag away from him." Goku, instead swooped down with the pole and knocked the bat colder than a mackerel. The bat's body fell to the Earth with a resounding thud. "Goku, you didn't have to do that!!! I said to just knock the balls away." "I know, but I like bat." "You like bat? You mean to eat?!!!" "Yeah, it's tasty!!" "Gross!!!" Rina said as they landed near the bat's body. Rina walked over to get the bag, but the bat grabbed her in his claws. "I have you now!!!" He laughed. Goku charged forward and kicked the bat up side the head causing him to let Rina go. "Have this!" Rina exclaimed before releasing an energy blast that fried the bat and caused him to change form. "What in the . . .?" Rina walked up to the being. Bulma came running from where Goku and Rina had left her. "Gee thanks, guys!!! Just leave me!! AHHHH! A shape-shifter!!" "A shape-what-er?" Goku asked. "A shape-shifter," the pig said. "You're a pig?!" Rina asked. "Yeah." "You mean you just shape-shifted into a pig?" Bulma asked. "No, this is what I really look like." "Well, change into something else!" Rina exclaimed. "Listen, sister, . . ." The pig began. "No, you listen here," Rina drew up a point of energy on her fingertip. "Okay, okay, you win." "Why did you take our Dragonballs?" Goku asked. "Cause I have one, and need all seven," he said as he retrieved one from his pocket. "Why you little thief!!! You'd steal our Dragonballs that we worked so hard to get?!?!" Bulma grabbed him by the shirt collar. "Hey!! Put me down!!!! Yes, I was going to steal it till these two kids knocked the crap out of me! Where did you learn to do all that?" "My grandpa taught me!" Goku smiled. "What about you, girlie?" He looked at Rina. "Wouldn't you like to know, piggy?" She laughed at him. Dragonball With A Different Twist Part III-- Tea For Two: Oolong's Introduction by SSBra The pig just huffed and said, "My name is Oolong." "My name's Goku," the little boy smiled. "Oolong? What kind of name is that?" Bulma asked. "It's a good name, girlie!!" "Sounds like a tea," Rina commented. "Listen, I don't have to take this abuse," he said dusting himself off. "We're trying to find all seven Dragonballs. Do you wanna come with us?" Goku invited. "Goku!!! I don't want some pig around me!" Bulma scolded. "Rina?" "Me either. He can shape-shift, and he tried to take our Dragonballs!!" "Ah, come on. I'm sure he won't try to do anything else, would ya Mr. Oolong?" "No, you have my word on it." "Yeah, you better check to see if his fingers are crossed," Bulma stated as her blood began to boil. 'First my little sister shows up, then we pick up this monkey boy who's about as bright as a burnt-out light bulb, and now he's invited a smelly ol' pig along!!!' The pig offered to take them to find the other Dragonballs in his van. This way, they could all travel together and Goku wouldn't have to be worried about getting killed due to Bulma's driving. "This is pretty nice," Rina commented. "See, I'm not so bad, after all." "I don't know about that. You're just being nice because you're afraid of Rina and Goku," Bulma barked as she got in. "You're just being nice because you're afraid of Rina and Goku," he mocked her. "Wake me up when we get to the next Dragonball," Bulma demanded before lying down on a couch. Goku joined Rina in the passenger seat of the van as Oolong drove along. "Seriously, where does a little girl like you get that kind of power?" "I don't know. I've just always had it." "You mean you were born with it? "Yep. I can't control it always, though. When I get really angry or scared, my powers are incredibly destructive." 'Note to self: Don't piss off the little girl,' Oolong thought. "Well now, what is that thing you have in your hands, Goku?" "It's a . . . what do you call it?" "A Dragon bleeper. My sister invented it," Rina said as she pointed to a sleeping Bulma. "She's your sister? How do you put up with that mouth?" "It's not easy, but you get used to it," she laughed. After a few hours of driving, Oolong announced, "Well, kids, I think we're gonna call it a night." He pulled over to the side and turned the ignition off. "Goku, you can sleep on that couch, Rina you can have the bed upstairs, and I'll take the floor." "Mr. Oolong, if it's all the same to you, I'll sleep with Rina," Goku stated. "Huh?!" He raised an eyebrow. "He can't sleep on couches. Been there, done that. Besides, Mr. Pervert, we're just five years old," she smirked at him. 'She's a thirty year old inside a five year old's body!' He laughed to himself. "Come on, Goku. Let's get to sleep." Goku told Oolong goodnight, then followed Rina up the ladder. She flicked the light switch on to find tonz of posters of almost nude girls on the walls . "What are those things?" Goku asked. "They're women, Goku. Hang on, I'll be back," Rina said as steam started to come out of her ears. "Listen here, Mr. Smutty!!! Don't you at least think you could've warned us about all the girly posters up there?" Rina exclaimed as she descended the ladder. "Shh!! You'll wake up that big-mouthed sister of your's. Okay, I'll go take them down." "You've probably scarred Goku for life," she noted following him up the stairs. "He'll be okay. He's a red-blooded boy." "Did you ever see a boy with a tail?" She asked as she saw Goku looking very strangely at the posters. "Sorry, kid, but the morality police is making me take these down," Oolong said as he got upon a chair and started to take them down. "Huh?" He scratched his head. "Never mind, Goku. Just hurry up, pig!" Rina demanded. "Now I know why you can stand your sister; you're just like her!" He yelled. "We'll be having bacon for breakfast tomorrow morning if you don't shut-up and get those filthy pictures down!!!!" 'You didn't read your notes, Oolong. First note: Don't piss off the little girl.' "Sorry. There's the last one," he dusted his hands off as he got down from the chair. As Oolong made his way down the stairs, the two children got ready for bed. "Why did he have all those pictures up?" Goku asked. "Some men like looking at women." "Will I like to look at women when I'm a man?" "Well, there's always hope," she said before turning the light off. 'I doubt you'll even know what a woman is, Goku,' she laughed to herself. "Goodnight, Rina." "Goodnight, Goku." The next morning, Bulma awoke to the sound of Oolong sniveling. "What's going on?" She yawned. As she got up to look out the window, she noticed that her bag with the Dragonballs were missing. "That little two-timer!!! I'll make pork chops out of his sorry, little ass!" she screamed as she looked out the window to find a tall, handsome young man, holding Oolong up by the shirt collar. "Oh, my! He's gorgeous!!!" she squealed as shestarted to put on her makeup and fix her hair. She didn't even notice that the young man had her bag with the Dragonballs. Bulma opened the van door and walked slowly to where Oolong and the young man were standing. "Hi there!" She said in a flirty tone. "Bulma!!!! Go wake up Goku and Rina!!!" Oolong choked. The young man turned around and his face went all googily. There was a little flying cat hovering above his head. "My name is Bulma," she said giddily. "M-m-m . . . gotta go!" He exclaimed as he dropped Oolong and the bag. He also grabbed the little cat before getting on his motorcycle and heading out. "Oh shoot!!! Now I'll never know his name," Bulma pouted as she placed her hands upon her hips. "You won't want to know his name, Bulma," Oolong said barely getting to his feet. "And just why is that, ye who sneaks out with MY Dragonballs." "He's Yamcha, the desert bandit." Dragonball With a Different Twist Part IV-- A Mirage Called Yamcha by SSBra "Yamcha? What a heavenly name," Bulma sighed as hearts replaced her eyes. "Oh, brother!! Leave it to a woman," Oolong said as he walked off. "Come back here!" Bulma raced after the pig and snatched her bag away from him. "Oh, that, well, you see," he stammered. "Save it for someone who would believe it!! I'm sleeping with these babies from now on!!!" She exclaimed as she clutched the bag close to her chest. 'Lucky bag!' He laughed to himself. "What are you laughing at, you ham hock?!" Bulma screamed. "Nothing," he quietly said as she left him standing out in the middle of the desert. "Goku, your foot is in my face!!" Rina exclaimed as she woke up to find Goku's toes up her nose. "Huh?" He asked. "Never mind," she said as she threw him onto the floor. "Ouch!!! What was that for?" "For five toes, that's what!" She expounded jumping onto the floor. Rina had heard some of the commotion and knew that Oolong had tried to steal the Dragonballs. She told Goku to get dressed and meet her downstairs. Climbing down the ladder, she heard Bulma get into the van. "Mornin'," Bulma said dreamily. Rina knew that look. It was the look Bulma had when she met her last boyfriend. "Are you in love with the pig?" "WHAT!?" "I mean, I haven't seen you look that goofy since what's-his-name. And I know you're not looking that way over Goku." "For your information, Miss Smarty, I met a boy just now." "Did you see a mirage? I see no one but Oolong outside," Rina explained as she looked out the window. "No, I didn't see a mirage," she mocked. "He left right after I introduced myself." Rina burst out laughing. "They usually run after being around you for awhile!!" Bulma was beginning to fume when Goku came down the ladder and ended up landing on Bulma's head. "GET OFF ME!!!!" She shouted as she blew a gasket. "I'm sorry. You shouldn't stand under a ladder," he explained as he hopped down. "Kami, what have I done to deserve a bratty, little sister, a tagalong monkey boy, and a smelly pig who steals my Dragonballs? I don't recall having done anything THAT bad," she said casting her gaze skyward. "Who is she talking to?" Goku whispered. "I'll tell you later. C'mon, we'd better leave her alone," Rina said as she led Goku back up the ladder. She took some clothes out of her bag and dressed in the bathroom. "I wonder where's Oolong?" "He's outside. I think he tried to steal our Dragonballs," she explained. "But he said he wouldn't." "Goku, you can't trust everyone you meet." "You can't?" "No, you'll have to learn that." "I trust you." "I know and that's because I've done nothing for you to do otherwise." "Huh?" "I'll explain later," she said as the headed back down the ladder. Oolong was back in the driver's seat as Bulma instructed him on where to go. "Slow down, you stupid pig!!! You'll pass right by it!" Bulma almost smacked him. "Alright-already!!! You don't have to get violent," he said as he stopped on the place next to where the Dragonball was supposed to be. "Bulma, do you think it's such a good idea to be around here? I mean, Yamcha could come back!" "Yamcha? Come here? That would be too much!!!" She squealed. "Who's Yamcha?" Goku asked hanging out the window. "It must be that boy she scared off," Rina shrugged. Bulma ran right up to Rina and screamed in her face, "I DIDN'T SCARE HIM OFF!!!!!" "Bulma, a little advice, you need a Tic-Tac." "AAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" She screamed before she grabbed Oolong and went out to where the Dragonball was supposed to be. "Gosh, she's grumpy," Goku said. As Rina was putting her ponytails back she said, "Yeah, but that's Bulma. C'mon, show me some of that karate stuff!" She grabbed Goku's hand and the two ran out the door to a place a few feet from where Bulma and Oolong were digging. Goku began to show Rina some punches and kicks. She was catching on pretty quick. She decided to show him how she used her energy when a stranger approached the two children. "Look Puar, someone left these helpless, little children alone," the tall boy said. "Yeah, that's too bad," the flying cat said. "Who are you?" Goku asked. "And who are you calling helpless?" Rina asked with her hands on her hips. "Such a cute, little girl with purple hair," the stranger commented. "Now, give me all your stuff." "What stuff?" Goku scratched his head. "What do you mean, 'What stuff?'! This is a holdup kid!!" "Holdup what?" Rina was beginning to snicker when the robber turned his attention to her. "And what do you think is so funny?" "I guess you've never tried to rob someone who doesn't know what it is to be robbed!" "I'm tired of playing games!! Give me all your stuff, or you'll die!" He threatened. Goku extended his power pole and knocked the bandit for a loop. "You're not killing anyone!!!" Puar flew back to him and asked with a panic, "Yamcha, are you okay?" "Yamcha? That must be the guy my sister's all dopey over," Rina whispered to Goku. "Yeah, I guess so." "Yes, Puar, I'm okay. But that little rat boy isn't going to be!" Yamcha stated as he prepared to fight. "Come on, little one. Show me what you got!" "Okay, but you'll be sorry," Goku said as he flew with his foot out toward Yamcha's face. He kicked the bandit in the head sending him reeling back. "Get 'em, Goku!!!" Rina cheered. "The Power of the Wolf!!" Yamcha shouted as he came back with an attack on Goku. Goku, who hadn't had any breakfast yet, had used up all his energy with that one attack. Rina could see that Goku couldn't defend himself, so she flew over to the scuffle and right in front of Yamcha's face. "You can fly!?" He said with a surprised look upon his face. Rina didn't answer him, but blinded him with her energy long enough to grab Goku and fly back to Bulma and Oolong. "Bulma!!! Yamcha attacked us!!" Rina yelled. Bulma dropped the Dragonball she had and asked, "Yamcha?!!? He's here!?" "Yeah, I'm fine, Bulma. And thanks for asking about Goku, too," Rina said sarcastically. "Oh, you two are fine. You probably egged him on." "Egged him on?!!? He was trying to rob us, you ninny!!!!" "Rina, don't call me a ninny!!!" "Goku is unconscious and all you care about is some stupid boy who ran from the sight of you!!!!" "RINA!!!!!" "Uh, girls, could you two argue about this another time?" Oolong said quivering. "Shut up, you stupid swine!!" Bulma spat. "No, Oolong, I'm being rather entertained," a voice said. Rina turned around to find Yamcha and Puar standing behind them. Dragonball With a Different Twist Part V--- He Took WHAT?!!? SSBra Disclaimer-- Dragonball is not owned by me. I just like writin' stuff about it. :) Bulma took one look at the handsome boy and fainted. "Just like her to conk out on you when you need her!" Rina stated as she placed Goku at Oolong's feet. "Go get him some food. Once he's got food in his stomach, he'll be able to fight." "What are you going to do?" The pig asked. "I'm going to try to hold off this guy until the two of you get back!" "Do you think you can?" "GET GOING!!!!" Rina yelled. Oolong's notebook was recalled in his head, 'Don't piss off the little girl. Don't piss off the little girl. Don't piss off the little girl.' Goku was motionless on the ground as Rina faced off with the bandit. "It's really not fair for me to fight such a little girl," he smirked. "Don't worry about that, Charlie. Give me what ya got!" Yamcha lunged for her and she flew out of the way. "You know it's not really fair to fly." "It's not really fair to steal from people either," she stuck her tongue out. "Droll, very droll," he laughed. He charged her again using his technique, "Power of the Wolf." She kept him at bay by using her energy. She poured everything she had into keeping him back. She knew very little of the karate that Goku taught her and knew she'd be no match for Yamcha. As her energy was fading, Yamcha was gaining ground on her. "OOLONG!!!!" She yelled. With the last bit of her energy spent, Yamcha charged her and kicked her up into the air. As she fell to Earth, she wished she'd stayed at home with her kassan and tousan instead of following her crazy, mixed-up sister on a wild goose chase. Her body landed with a thump. "I could use a little girl like this," he pondered. "Puar, grab that bag and let's get going," he said as he picked Rina up into his arms. "Yamcha, what are you doing?" Puar was getting angry. "Cool it, Puar. She's very powerful. We could use her powers to steal everyone blind!!!" He laughed evilly as he started his motorcycle. He placed Rina across the seat and took off with Puar sitting on her back. "Rina!!! I have the food!!!" Oolong ran back to where Goku was lying. "Rina!!! Where did you go?!" He looked around and accidentally stepped on Bulma in his search. "Ouch, you stupid pig!!!!" She said knocking his legs out from under him. "Sorry, have you seen Rina?" "Rina? What do you mean, 'Have I seen her?' The last time I saw her, she was here!!!!" Bulma panicked. She knew her parents would kill her if anything happened to her little sister. "Goku," Oolong kneeled down. "Where's Rina?" "Yamcha took her," he whispered. Bulma ran over to his body and started to shake it. "You just let him take her!?!?!!?!?!!?!?" She screamed. "Bulma, the kid has no energy. I was going to get him some food, and that must be when Yamcha kidnapped her," Oolong offered an explanation. "Why didn't you get back here sooner?!!? You pork dinner-waiting to happen!!!!" Bulma yelled as she shook Oolong violently. She shook him so hard that he dropped the food he was carrying right onto Goku's head. Goku gobbled up the food and was back to his old self in no time. "Let's go get Rina and the Dragonballs back!!" He exclaimed. Bulma stopped shaking Oolong long enough to ask, "Dragonballs?! He took our Dragonballs!?!?" She dropped the pig and began to feverishly search everywhere for her missing property. After the search proved to be fruitless, she dropped to her knees and began to cry. "First my little sister is kidnapped, and now, my Dragonballs are gone!!" "Come on, Bulma. We're never gonna get Rina back if you just sit there all day!" Goku told her as he got into the van. 'If I had any strength left, I would beat you senseless, Goku," she said as she grabbed Oolong and threw him into the van. "Hey!!! What did I do now?!" he asked. "JUST DRIVE!!!!!!!" She screamed into his ear. Rina woke up coughing and choking as she inhaled the road dust entered her lungs while the motorcycle sped along. Looking up at Yamcha, she noticed Puar was sitting on her back. She had no energy left and had never been so tired in her life. "Get off my back, cat!!!" She spat. "She's awake, Yamcha!!!" "Ah, yes, the little warrior awakes," he laughed as he stopped the motorcycle. "What do you want?" Rina asked as he picked her up by the shirt collar. "I'll make you a little deal. You work with me and Puar, and I won't kill you." "Kiss my ass!" "What a pottie-mouth!" Puar gasped. "You have the mouth of a sailor, little girl!" "You have the face of a gorilla," she smirked. "You'll be the comic relief of this group," he commented as he dropped her onto the ground. "By the way, what is your name?" "My name is Rina," she said as she brushed her dress off. "Rina, you look like a Rina," he noted. "Here, Puar," he said as he handed the cat the bag he took. Rina's eyes went huge as she watched Puar fetch one of the Dragonballs from the bag. "What are these things?" She asked Yamcha. "What are these?" He took one and walked over to Rina. "They're balls," she said. "I know they're balls, but what are they for?" "What do you usually do with a ball, Stupid?" "Very witty, you are," he said as he carefully studied the orange ball. "There's one more in here," Puar stated as she handed Yamcha the four-star Dragonball. "Curious, this one has four stars; this one has five. What do they mean?" "It means you can count," she crossed her arms. "I grow tired of your smart, little mouth," he growled. As Goku, Bulma, and Oolong followed the motorcycle tracks left by Yamcha, Bulma cursed silently to herself. 'Kassan and Tousan will totally kill me if I don't get her back!!!! And the Dragonballs, I'll never get a boyfriend if I don't them back. That Yamcha!!! He's so cute, yet so bad. Yeah, really bad.' A feral smile crept across her lips as she thought of the Desert Bandit. "Bulma, are you okay?" Goku said as he interrupted her thoughts of Yamcha. "No, I'm not okay!!!! He has my little sister AND our Dragonballs!!!" She began to cry. "We'll get both back, Bulma. Goku's at full-strength now!!!" Oolong said. "You'd better get her back, monkey boy!!!" Bulma shrieked. "Rina's my friend. I'll get her back." Yamcha and Puar questioned Rina for the remainder of the afternoon about the strange balls in her bag. "Talk!" Yamcha yelled as the last of his patience was gone. "Huh-uh," Rina sat there with her arms crossed. "It's useless, Yamcha. She's not going to tell us," Puar stated. "She will even if I have to beat it out of her!!!!" "Oh, pick on a poor, helpless, little girl, huh?" "Helpless?!?!" "Yeah, I have no more energy left. But even if I did, I bet you're too chicken to fight me." "Is that so? Then what do we need to do to get you your energy back?" "I haven't had any breakfast," she stated. "Puar, fetch her some food." "But, Yamcha . . ." "Just do it, Puar!" Puar knew that the little girl was only tricking Yamcha into giving her food to get her strength back. Once she did, she would probably blast Yamcha into next week. The cat returned with some food and gave it to Rina. "Thanks!" She expounded. "Now, little Rina, eat up. You'll need all your strength!" He laughed. Dragonball With a Different Twist Part VI--- Rina's Rescue SSBra This one's kinda short. Kinda like the filler eppys on DBZ. "Hurry up, Oolong!!!! Keep following those tracks!!!" Bulma barked. "I am!! I am!!!" He cowered. "He couldn't have gotten far!" Bulma said as she strained her eyes trying to catch a glimpse of her sister's kidnapper. 'Kami, I know I said that she was bratty and that I wished that sometimes I didn't have a little sister, but I do love her. Please watch over her until we can get there.' "I'm sure we'll find her, Bulma," Goku said. He wasn't worried at all about Rina. She knocked him back into a tree. If she could do that, she could take on anyone, he thought. "We'd better! She's the only little sister I have!!" Bulma said almost in tears. Her mother and father would have Bulma's head if Rina was hurt or even worse . . . killed. "There!!! There they are!!!" Oolong shouted as he pulled up to where Rina and Yamcha were about to battle. "What has that girl gotten herself into this time?!" "Yamcha!!! It's the rest of them!!" Puar yelled as he saw them pull up. Puar was a bit nervous about the boy with the tail. He knew that he was just weak when Yamcha pulverized him. "So, what?! I can beat the tar out of all of them," he laughed. 'Yeah, I'm so good. I can beat them all!' He was feeling pretty confident until he saw Bulma running up to her little sister. His confidence turned to mushiness as she got closer. He even had to turn his back to regain his composure. "Rina, are you okay?" Bulma ran to her then picked her up into her arms. "Yeah, I'm fine. Now, will you put me down?!" She said as he sister was kissing her face. "Yuck!!!" "It wasn't nice of you to steal Rina like that," Goku said retrieving his power pole from its sheath. He was going to teach this big bully a thing or two. No one stole his friend and didn't pay for it. "Oh really? And what are you going to do about it, little boy?" Yamcha bent down and laughed. "This!" Goku exclaimed as he whacked Yamcha in the head with the power pole. Just then, Puar took off with the bag containing the Dragonballs. "Not so fast!" Rina exclaimed as she took off flying after the cat. She caught up with Puar and smacked the bag out of her hands. "These are ours! Go get your own Dragonballs!" She exclaimed before blasting the cat back twenty feet. Floating back down to the ground, Rina grabbed the bag and headed for Goku and Yamcha. As Rina made quick work of Puar, Goku was beating the living daylights out of Yamcha. The Desert Bandit was using every weapon in his arsenal against the strange, little boy with a tail. Goku was using the power pole like a bat to Yamcha's head. Finally, after not being able to take anymore, Yamcha fell to the ground with a thud. "Beaten, by a rat boy," he said raspily. "Let's go!" Goku called to Rina. "Thanks Goku!" She ran up to him and hugged him. "Shucks, it was nothing! You're my friend," he said as the two held hands back to the van. Bulma and Oolong were holding each other, scared out of their minds at the battles going on in front of them. When Rina started to laugh and point, Bulma looked down at who was in her arms. "Get off me, you pig!!!" She exclaimed as she threw Oolong off her. "Listen you!!!" "Come on. Let's get out of here before he comes to," Rina suggested as she led Goku to the door of the van. "Good idea, kid!" Oolong exclaimed as he opened the door, and the gang got it. "You got the Dragonballs, Rina?" Bulma asked for hopefully. "Yeah, here they are," she said as she handed her sister the bag. "Good!!! Now that that's over, we can go look for the rest of them. The next one is in quadrant six." "Isn't that where the Ox King lives?" Oolong asked. "Yeah, I guess so. I never thought about that," she shrugged. "That's out! I'm not going!" The pig quipped. "Why?" Goku asked. "Cause the Ox King eats people," he explained. "He does not. That's just a superstition," Rina said crossing her arms. "What's a super...stuper... what you just said?" Goku stuttered. "Well, it's when you believe something that's not necessarily true," Bulma explained. "Oh, okay," he said still not sure of what Rina had said. "Well, if the next Dragonball is at the Ox King's place . . ." Bulma started. "Fire Mountain," Oolong shook nervously. "Wow!! I've heard so much about that!!!" Rina said excitedly. "I'm glad you're excited, kid. It might be just the place you're buried," the pig stated. Dragonball With A Different Twist-- Part VII Meet the Ox King SSBra "Oolong, how is that Yamcha and Puar seemed to know you?" Bulma asked. "Well, Puar and I go back a long way." "You and that silly little cat know one another?" Rina asked. "Yes. We were both in Shape-Shifter school. I flunked out for cheating." "That figures!!" Bulma exclaimed as she looked out the window. 'Yamcha,' her mind thought. 'Why did you have to kidnap my little sister. Now am I really confused about you.' Little did Bulma know that Yamcha and Puar were hot on their trail. "Yamcha!!! Slow down!!!" Puar yelled as she hung onto the back of Yamcha's gi. "I've gotta catch up with them!!! I'll show that monkey boy and that little, smart-mouthed girl who's boss!!!" 'Bulma, I'm sorry that I took the little girl. I just wish I could tell you that-- face-to-face." The van pulled up to Fire Mountain, and the Dragonball gang got out. "This is Fire Mountain?" Goku asked. "Yeah, but it's not supposed to be burning like this," Oolong grabbed his hanky and wiped the sweat from his head. "I wonder what's going on here?" Bulma asked as she looked at the Dragon Bleeper. "It's here!!! The Dragonball is here!!" She squealled as she took off. "Well, let's go!!!" Oolong said dragging Rina and Goku along with him after Bulma. "Gosh, it's hot!!!" Goku said. "Yeah, I knew Fire Mountain was supposed to be hot, but I had no idea it was this hot!!!" Rina exclaimed. "Something's wrong here," Oolong said as they caught up to Bulma. "What do you mean?" Bulma asked as the Dragon Bleeper said that the Dragonball was over in a burning heap. "It's not supposed to be this hot here. Something is off here," Oolong said as he sweated. "Maybe someone turned up the heat," Rina laughed. "Very funny, Rina. Do you have any other funny things to say? Cause the Dragonball is over there in that burning blaze!!!" "Listen, you're the one who wants a boyfriend. I'm just along for the ride." "Rina! Can't you do anything but annoy me?!" "Seems like that's what I do best!" "I should send you home right now!!!" "Oh, so I can tell Tousan and Kassan how you let me get kidnapped by a bandit you're lovesick over?" Bulma gulped and thought about what she'd get if Rina did that. "Uh, Rina, you wouldn't tell Kassan and Tousan about that, would you?" "I would if you sent me home. Goku's gotta teach me more of that karate stuff!" "Yeah, and Bulma, Rina's my friend. Who would I have to talk to?" "She can stay, but I've gotta have a little help here." "Bulma, I'm good, but I can't walk through fire!" Rina smirked. Steam came pouring out of Bulma's ears. She gritted her and teeth and said as calmly as she could, "I know you can't walk through fire, but do you think you could put it out?" "I'll try," Rina said as she walked up to the wall of fire and shot energy at it. The blast seemed to calm the blaze a bit, but didn't come anywhere near putting it out. "Wow, Rina!!! You're awesome!!!" Goku exclaimed. He was certainly impressed by her and her powers. He wished that he could do that. "Rina, you didn't even put a dent in it!!" Bulma complained. "Okay, let's see you do better!!!" "Girls, please, we've gotta find a way to get that Dragonball," Oolong said. "You'll never get it now," a voice boomed. "Wh-who was THAT?" Bulma quivered. "I don't know," Rina said as she looked around. Goku brought out his powerpole and stood in front of Rina and Bulma. "That was the Ox King!!!" Oolong exclaimed. "You mean the guy who eats people?" Goku asked. "Yes, that one," a large figure stepped into the light. "You're the Ox King?" Rina asked. "Yes, little one, I am. I thought you were my daughter when I first saw you but when I saw your remarkable powers, I knew you couldn't be her. So, it is a Dragonball you are seeking?" "Yes," Bulma said nervously. "If you can put this fire out, you can have it." "Put this fire out? What does he think we are? South City's Volunteer Fire Department?!" Oolong said. "There's only one person who could put this fire out, my old master," the Ox King said sadly. "Your old master?" Bulma asked. "Yes, Master Roshi." "Master Roshi?" Goku asked. "Yes, he was my sensei. He taught me everything about martial arts." "Oh, really?" Rina asked as a plan began to brew in her brain. 'If Goku and I could find this Master Roshi, he could teach us more of that karate stuff.' "Yeah, and what's worse, is that I sent my daughter, Chi-Chi out to find him. and she's not returned. I'm worried sick." "Don't worry about that Mr. Ox King, we'll find this Master Roshi and your daughter Chi-Chi for you," Goku smiled. "We will?" Bulma and Oolong asked. "Yeah," Goku and Rina answered. "What does your daughter look like?" Oolong asked drooling. "For crying out loud!!! And where do we find this Master Roshi?" "My little Chi-Chi has black hair and is wearing a princess warrior's armor. Master Roshi can be found on an island southwest of here," the Ox-King explained. "Got it!!" Rina exclaimed as she grabbed Goku by the shoulders and flew them both high into the sky. "Rina!!! Come back here!!" Bulma shouted up to her. That's all I have of the story right now.
