It was now daytime in the desert, as the gang took their baths and showers after waking up, then they got dressed back up, and now they had their home packed in Bulma's capsule, and ready to go through the desert together. With a now dressed Bulma deciding to use her car to ride through her desert with since she can get her A/C cooling her and her friends off.
"Alright, it shouldn't be too far from Fire Mountain now. I'm guessing you're excited to be back there?" Bulma asked Chi Chi.
"Yes. Especially with my daddy."
"Okay. Quick question though, we've heard rumors that your father, being the ox king himself, is a monster that destroys villages. Is it true?"
Chi-Chi shook her head. "No, he's not a monster, even if he has the looks. But he's nice to me, and he makes sure that I'm safe. Even if he fights hard to do so. Which results in pretty messy fights for the bad guys." Chi chi said cringing. Remembering seeing her father butchering people that tried to kidnap her. "But he's nicer than he looks. And he's a goofy pushover if you're me, or once you get to know him." She then said giggling.
Goku ended up smiling at that. "Just like that goat guy from that game that I saw someone play." He thought. "It's too bad that he gets harshly judged though."
"But what about you though, what is your mother like?" Chi Chi asked Goku.
"She was… intimidating, as well as scary, and she had little patience for failure from her guards, and me, but she was loving to me. Mommy also raised me to be a great warrior prince. And yet she keeps me safe from danger." He responded while smiling at her.
"That's… reassuring." Chi Chi said awkwardly, feeling a bit relieved that the Empress is loving to the prince that she loves.
"And she does give me some free stuff if I ask her. She might even let us be friends if I ask her for permission." He said smiling at her.
"What a nice lady. It's too bad that I didn't know enough about my mother, who is now in the afterlife since I was a baby." Chi Chi said casually, not having known about her mom other than being carried in her arms in her infancy. "Well, if she's that generous, I hope we'll become more than friends later on." Chi Chi then thought with a little blush.
Both Goku and Bulma felt sorry for Chi Chi, losing her mother as a baby. With Goku hugging her for comforting her with, while Bulma was somber about it. But she couldn't help but think about Fasha and her relationship with Goku. "Hmm… so she does love her son, even though she looks the part of an intimidating iron Queen who might not be fond of kids. Not that I had my doubts, but it's nice to see that she really does have a soft spot for Goku." Bulma thought.
Little did they know however, during their conversation in the car, the desert bandit himself was riding behind them, out for revenge from his defeat by Chi Chi and Goku's hands. And he wasn't gonna be messing around since he had his rocket launcher in his hands to disable the car with. (He feels that it'd be dishonorable, as well as a waste to just kill them outright with his rocket blast. Even a bandit like him has standards after all.) Then once it was disabled, he'll knock them all out with his moves, then take their stuff from them. Including their Dragon Balls.
He just needed a good shot so he won't miss and draw attention to himself, or hit the major part of the car to have it blow up and kill all of them inside, as well as destroying the stuff inside. (Possibly including the Dragon Balls if none of them are indestructible. Which he doubts they aren't.)
"Steady Yamcha!" Puar said, flying by his hoverbike.
"Way ahead of you Puar, and soon, I'll have their stuff in my pockets!" Yamcha said concentrating his eyes to make sure his shot hits the mark. He just needs to ignore the wind in his hair, and the sand being kicked up by the car he's aiming at.
It took a few minutes of him aiming his rocket launcher at the car, trying to aim for the wheel to disable the car and stop it from escaping from the desert.
Until he eventually got the tire in his crosshairs around the time that the car came close to another mushroom tree. And took the shot.
*SHWOOOOO*
"Huh? What was-"
*BOOOOOOM*
Bulma couldn't finish her question, as she felt her car suddenly getting launched in the direction of her two o'clock. In other words, to her northeast direction as all of them screamed before her car ended up hitting the mushroom tree roof-first. Which wrecked the car as it shattered the windows, bent the roof with a huge dent, partially bent the car in half, and if the now missing wheel isn't enough, broke it down and have it unable to move without getting repaired first.
Which is the bad news. The good news though, is that none of the trio has been killed or mortally wounded, as they were now getting their bearings together, and recovering from their shock of what happened to the car, as Chi Chi and Goku was alright. They were laying haphazardly on the only non broken window of the car, with Goku's arms wrapped around Chi-Chi for protection as he took most of the force of them falling. Which didn't hurt him as bad as it looked.
"Are you okay Chi Chi?" Goku asked concerned for her.
"I'm… okay. Are you Goku?" She asked with tears in her eyes from the fear of falling. Yet she was also blushing at how close she was to Goku.
"I'll be fine." Goku responded, relieved that Chi-Chi is fine. "Bulma?" He called out for her.
Only to see her in what he feels, is an embarrassing fashion for her, where she laid haphazardly against the roof upside down, her head had a round bump while she had stars around her head in a cartoonish fashion. What also didn't help her, is that she had a silly look on her face that was an open-mouthed smile, her tongue was sticking out, and her eyes were looking in opposite directions, almost like she was derping.
Hands down, the silliest face that Bulma has ever made on their journey, in Goku's opinion. Chi-Chi also saw Bulma's face as she had to stifle her giggling.
Goku knew that he had to laugh at the face that Bulma made, later. He knew that there's trouble happening outside the car that he might have to deal with first. "Stay in here Chi Chi, I'll be back in once the coast is clear." He said seriously as he got up with Chi-Chi in his arms until they were standing and leaning on the backseat.
"B-be careful… Goku. Uhh…?" She said embarrassed.
As it was when she noticed that in Goku's protective embrace from the car crash, she felt her chest getting grabbed by Goku's hand on her right breast through her bra armor. Which had her face as red as an apple when she realized that Goku inadvertently groped her there when he saved her from the car flipping to its side. Yet he didn't seem to notice his accidental deed, as he was now climbing up the backseat to the broken window. "Did… he just…?" She thought as she saw Goku climbing out of the car through the window after letting go of her body.
Only for her to drag him back down to her level, grab him by his shirt and slammed him into the backseat, which was made of soft rubber. So it didn't hurt for Goku, but he was startled.
"How d-d-dare you! You've got s-s-some nerve, grabbing me there like that!" She yelled out with a big blush as Goku stared at her in confusion, wondering what he did. Her face was red in both anger at what he did, yet also out of a sudden increase of love for him, that spiked up at how gutsy he was in doing that. (In her eyes that is.) "B-but I can s-s-see that it's cause you find me so cute. You should've at least asked me out on a date first." She then said after a minute, now covering her face.
"A date? Why should I've asked for a date? Also, are you feeling alright Chi Chi? You're turning red on your face." He said, noticing her blush.
"I-I'm fine. J-just make sure that we're s-safe here by the time we get out of this car. Go get 'em Goku." Chi Chi said.
"Okay." he awkwardly said, before climbing back up to the broken window of the car. "That girl is so weird." He then thought.
When Goku got out of the car, he looked around at his surroundings outside the car, trying to see what caused the car to flip over and crash into the tree. He saw the car's remains, and saw that one of the wheels was missing, among other details of how mangled the car's underside was. "Well, I guess we're gonna have to use a different vehicle from Bulma's inventory." He said to himself.
Then he looked around again with his power pole drawn out before he saw Yamcha as he walked off of his bike with a stunned look on his face. Like he didn't expect that Goku would survive the crash unscathed. "That wasn't very nice. You could've killed my friends you know." He angrily said, quickly knowing that Yamcha was the reason why their car crashed.
"Well, we couldn't just let you leave this desert since I'm still standing. Besides, you still didn't pay me the toll that a prince like you should know about, and now you're paying for it." He said, preparing to fight.
"You could've just asked us to stop the car, and pay, you know!" Goku said. "Now, you've made a mistake. And now, 'you're' paying for it." he responded, getting into his stance.
The bandit and prince ended up circling each other in the desert as they prepared for whom will make the first move to begin their fight in the desert, as Chi-Chi was still in the car, blushing still at the accidental groping before she watched from the car window.
Goku and Yamcha felt that a tumbleweed would've been rolling through the desert at the tense moment of impending combat between each other. It felt tense enough to cut the air with a knife for a few minutes.
Before as if at the sound of a bell, they charged at each other with speed and ferocity. With Yamcha making some opening palm strikes against Goku, who merely dodged and parried his blows with his pole.
Yamcha later added in his kicks, but Goku kept on parrying his blows even from his kicks. And on occasions, jabbing back against Yamcha onto his abs. Yamcha even tried to do his Rouga Fuufuuken technique again. But Goku was prepared to parry it again.
This time, Goku was fed and no longer close to being hungry, and he was not gonna be messing around this time. Since he was now ready to fight hard against the bandit himself for what he did to their car.
However, the fight didn't last too long, before Goku felt hands on his tail while grasping it tightly, which had his energy getting sapped out as he stood groggily on the sand with Yamcha holding onto his tail.
Yamcha ended up eavesdropping on the conversation between Bulma and Chi-Chi, when he learned about Chi-Chi grabbing onto Goku's tail by mistake when they got on the Nimbus. Which gave Yamcha his answer about how to end the fight in his favor by grabbing the tail himself.
Now, he was grasping the tail tightly as he grinned at Goku's weakened state. "Not so tough now, are ya." He mocked. "Puar! Search that car for the loot! And if there are other conscious folks in there, tell them to make no sudden movements, or they'll be next when I'm done with this kid."
"Right!" Puar said, ready to inspect the Car for the Dragon Balls, and the capsules among other stuff. While Goku was on one knee, about to fall onto his belly and probably pass out from the pain. Only for him to think about what bad things that both the Bandit, and the floating cat could do to Bulma and Chi Chi. And the thought alone made him angry. Especially when he thinks about what would happen to Chi Chi.
Which led to him getting determined to keep them both safe from the Bandit's wrath. Which fueled his anger into resisting his weakness just long enough to land at least one blow on the Bandit to make him let go of his tail, or end the fight in one last shot as the winner.
Luckily for Goku, his front flipping kick to Yamcha's jaw was able to do both, as he ended the fight against Yamcha. Knocking him unconscious, and sending a tooth flying. While letting go of Goku's tail, letting him get his strength back.
Puar ended up gasping in horror at what happened in front of her, as Yamcha ended up falling onto the sand now unconscious, despite his efforts, and being able to gain an advantage due to Goku's weakness. Before she gasped again when Goku then looked at her with a glare. "Now, if you value your life as well as your friend's, you will take your friend and go. Or I won't be merciful." He said, prepared to show them how similar he can be to Fasha.
"Y-yes your majesty! We'll leave! I swear!" Puar said, before transforming into a large Pterodactyl, to carry Yamcha back to their hideout. Leaving Goku alone with the car as he watched them leave to fight another day.
Now he was alone outside for a bit, until Chi-Chi got out of the car herself, before looking at Goku in amazement. "Wow! You've gotten better than last time you fought him."
"Well, I learned from his fighting style, and I wanted to see how he performs. And so far, I'm pretty impressed. Even though he would've been better without grabbing my tail." He said smiling at her. "How're you and Bulma doing by the way?"
"I'm d-doing fine. And Bulma's… still making that goofy face." She said giggling, referring to Bulma, who she pulled out the car's wreckage as she laid on the tree, still unconscious.
While Chi-Chi was still embarrassed about the fact that Goku groped her right breast by mistake. But later after the battle was ending, she didn't really mind it anymore since she thought that Goku loved her, and was being gutsy enough to do that. She even giggled with love towards Goku, finding him and his smile cute looking.
Goku on the other hand, was still feeling weirded out at how Chi-Chi was acting around him, seeing her red face, and her giggling form at his presence. (As well as at Bulma's face.) "She's still acting a little weird. But I kind of like her since she's a warrior princess that killed that T-rex. And I admit, she's cute because of that side to her. So I don't mind." He thought smiling at her again.
After some more giggling at Bulma's expense, they proceeded to carry Bulma away from the car wreck. Now she was given a piggyback ride from Goku as he carried her through the desert with Chi-Chi jogging by his side. With Goku carrying her through the seemingly biggest desert he's ever run through until Bulma wakes back up, or until they reach Fire Mountain.
Whatever happens, Goku didn't care since neither option led to trouble.
So he and Chi-Chi jogged through the desert with nary a complaint since that'd waste time. So they continued onward until they saw that they were near the end of the desert, and was seeing some green grass and a dirt path. Much to their joy. Especially Chi-Chi's since it was a sign that they were in the right direction to her castle. "Yes! And look, we have a path in front of us! Now it won't be long until we come back to daddy's home!" Chi-Chi said happily.
Goku couldn't agree more as he grinned at how they were now out of the desert. Even though it was still hot at their current location, but Goku knew that it has to be because of the titular fire of Fire Mountain's that was the reason why it's hot. And he felt that it's gonna get hotter from there as they get close. But at least they could come across some little lakes of water that they could cool off in.
Right now though, they felt that they should keep on going first, so they continued their jog through the path for a few minutes until Goku felt Bulma waking back up. Causing him and Chi-Chi to stop.
"Huh? What… happened? Why am I on your back?" Bulma asked waking up.
"It's cause your car crashed into one of the trees for some reason." Goku said putting Bulma down. "All I know, is that the desert Bandit had something to do with it when I saw him near the car after I got out."
Bulma was appalled at what Goku told her. "Now why would he do that?! That guy's rude."
"It's cause he's still trying to rob us." Chi-Chi said in an annoyed tone. "And he could've succeeded if Goku wasn't here. So you owe him thanks." She then said in a classy tone.
"Well he could've just told us to pull over so that Goku could kick his ass. Thank you by the way."
"No problem. And I know right? What's his problem?" Goku asked.
"Beats me, I thought he was more gentlemanly than that, being so handsome and all." Bulma said annoyed. Much to Goku and Chi-Chi's exasperation.
Nevertheless, Bulma was awake now, as she then used another capsule to summon another car. Now they were driving forwards on the path on their way to Fire Mountain.
Not knowing that the certain Bandit was now back on his feet thanks to another bean, and was now out for revenge after regaining consciousness.
Meanwhile… back in Fasha city…
The Empress of the city herself was looking over the last minute preparations in front of her castle. She was grinning inwardly at how the festival was coming together nicely for her. After all, she made this festival for her city to celebrate, and she'd be damned to let anything bad happen to it that would force her to cancel the festival after the effort that was put into it.
Especially since this festival is also what her people celebrated back on Planet Vegeta, way before its destruction by Frieza's hands. Some of which, she took part in alongside Bardock himself, and his crew. It got pretty fun there, especially since she hung out with Bardock. Whom she at some days, planned to confess her love to, in the faintest hopes that he could admit that he too loves her, and have her become his mate instead of Gine. Or in another unlikely scenario, would accept her as another mate to make a personal harem out of, consisting of only her and Gine.
Which she admits, she finds to be an interesting alternative, to be Bardock's second lover alongside her best friend.
It's too bad that Planet Vegeta's destruction, and the death of them both, ended up putting a permanent damper on that plan, much to her major chagrin as she sheds some tears for Bardock. Which served to remind her of her determination to become a Super Saiyan, and make Frieza pay for what he's done.
Right now though, she was conversing with the orchestrater of the festival, hearing his news about her festival's progress, and how close it is to getting ready to go, by the time tomorrow rolls by. She was wearing a tank top, and some gym shorts that showed the curve of her butt, and little did the orchestrator and herself know, a certain brown appendage.
"So, the floats are in pristine condition?"
"Yep." The orchestrater said.
"And the costumes are also ready for wearing?"
"Yes your majesty." He said smiling.
"And the party favors are ready to be used, and the dances are gonna be coordinated well?"
"Yes, everything is coming up well. The festival is now ready for tomorrow."
"Excellent. Now our tribute to the moon is gonna be glorious. And everybody is gonna be showing their tribute to the full moon. The source of our finest power." She said the last part quietly.
"The source of what?" He asked.
"Nothing. Don't be too curious. If you know what's good for you." She threatened, much to his nervous fear. "Now, get the rehearsals underway for the festival. Practice makes perfect after all." Fasha said, shooing him away.
The orchestrator gave her a polite bow before walking away to the direction of the festival rehearsals that is taking place not too far from her castle. Leaving her alone in front of the castle's porch, minding her business and thinking about the moon's power over her people, when a familiar guard came up to her, snapping her out of her thoughts.
"Oh, it's you. I thought that you were on a break with your fellow guards." She said curiously.
"I am on a break." Cornelius said. "And I'm just using it to continue our conversation from where we left off."
"We were still speaking?" She asked confused.
Yoshiaki respectfully nodded. "We were talking about the festival, and the moon when something went wrong. I just thought that you'd have the time to continue the talk."
Fasha ended up smiling at him. "Nice to see that you didn't forget. Thank you for the reminder. Now, where were we at in our conversation, Cornelius?"
"I was gonna ask you, why the moon of all things, that you give tribute to with this 'full moon festival' that's being held."
Fasha ended up grinning evilly at him, which had him feeling nervous as he hoped she won't kill him. "That's an interesting question with an interesting answer. Very well, I'll tell you. And no one else. So this stays between us." She said, deciding to sate his curiosity.
"You see Cornelius Yoshiaki, the reason why I'm holding the festival for the moon, is because the moon is gonna be full in at least two days. Once it's full, then it becomes a sign of danger for our enemies. Especially those who have every right to be afraid, once they know my race well." She explained.
"Your race? You mean you're not from here?" He asked, noticing a furry belt on her. Also, having not been told about Fasha's species since she didn't have the thought to tell everyone in her city about herself.
"Correct Cornelius. You see, I'm a Saiyan. I may look like you Earthlings, but we Saiyans have a few characteristics that differentiates us from your kind. Three of which, are major differences, the first of which, is our tails."
"Tails?" Yoshiaki asked confused.
"Yes, you heard me right, our tails. We Saiyans have tails, sorta like this planet's tree climbing, vine-swinging, banana-eating, simian animals known as monkeys. Which is why, you shall be thoroughly punished if you dare call me a monkey lady. So don't. even. try it. do I make myself clear?" She threatened angrily, with her hand glowing.
"Crystal! A-as you wish your mon- majesty!" He said, scared of her wrath.
"Good. Now, what also separates us from you Earthlings, is that we Saiyans love to fight, and we are quite a strong race. As you should know by now, the city that I fought against years ago, learned that the hard way. My Ki power was mighty, and frightening, to where nobody stood a chance against me!" She said a little crazily.
"So, your race are like… space Spartans?"
Fasha ended up thinking about it for a bit, having heard about the Spartans of Earth through their history. Like how they were proud fighters, kind of like her race now that she thinks about it. "I guess you can say that about us." She then said grinning wickedly.
"Ah." He then said shrugging. "And the last thing?"
"We Saiyans end up gaining power from the moon, including that one, should it be full. That is when the moon releases the energy source known as the Blutz Waves."
"Blutz Waves? Never heard of it." Cornelius said.
Fasha wasn't even slightly surprised at the response. Considering it's a human she's talking with. "Blutz waves are what we absorb through our retinas in our eyes, in the form of Zenos. Which is a unit that we use to measure the waves of the celestial lights. And the full moon produces at least 17 million of it, which we absorb into our eyes, creating a biochemical reaction that requires our tail to help us transform. Hence why we have tails." She said.
"Transform? Like a werewolf from the books and the movies?" He asked.
"Oh, much worse than that, I can assure you." She said trying not to giggle with humor.
Then she explained to him what the Saiyans transform into. Which is the form that her race became famous among the stars for, the form that caused terror among the other Planets that has a moon. And the form that is so destructive, that it destroyed a lot of surfaces of other Planets, turning them into wastelands. All while Cornelius was shivering with nervousness at how scary it could be to be one of those victims that fought against those transformed Saiyans.
Yet in some crazy way, he was also interested in seeing how the transformed Saiyans would fight against their foes.
Then he thought about the tail belt that he believes is on Fasha's tailbone.
"The downsides of transforming though, is that we usually can't remember what we did during our transformed state. We just merely pass out from the strain, and our instincts are in control of our other form, then we wake up afterward with nary a clue of what we did. Unless we train ourselves to handle the mental strain so that we are able to control ourselves in our transformed state. And another thing, we must still have our tails on us, or we cannot transform. Which in my case, is a good thing." Fasha then explained.
"Why? Wait! Could it be, because it is hard to control like you said?!" He then said nervously.
"Correct. With my tail off, this city is safe. And trust me, it's a good thing because I poured years into making this city as it is now, through investments, developments, and even riches, in my rule. So can you imagine all of this?" She said gesturing to the city. "This city, all destroyed in seconds, all because of one accidental look at the moon, and then seconds later, because of a tailed monster that ends up running through it, destroying everything in sight? I can! And it's in one word. 'Tragic.' That's what."
"T-t-then, what… is that… over y-your… your butt?" He hesitantly yet quickly asked, hoping he won't offend Fasha for asking an out of context perverted question.
"Over my butt? What makes you-" She tried to ask that, only to feel a familiar touch on her tailbone that she didn't think she'd feel again when she rubbed her hand there. In fact, she felt a familiar sensation that was on her tail.
That was when she noticed that over her hips where her belt should be, was what she thought she got rid of a few years ago, being her tail. Only to then see, that it has grown back onto her tailbone, and is wrapped around her waist like how she kept her tail wrapped up. How she did not notice it on her until now, she doesn't know. All she knows, is that she has a new tail.
That was when she felt a spike of fear coming over her when she realized that her tail is on her, and the full moon festival was coming along with the moon itself. She felt that she should be thanking Cornelius for the accidental warning, later.
Right now, she was leaning on the railing as she was breathing rather loudly in fear at what was gonna happen to her precious city if Cornelius hadn't told her about the tail she had on, before taking calming breaths. Then she thought about what Goku could think if he saw the aftermath of her city's destruction once his journey with Bulma was done. He probably would've been saddened and pissed to learn about it. And he'd direct those emotions towards her.
And that's not what she wants to do to Goku, which is to make him sad and have him hating her.
"Your majesty? Are you okay?" He asked, concerned and wondering why Fasha was trying not to hyperventilate.
"Y-yes! I-i'm fine! Just get back to your break room! We shall speak more in a moment!" She then said quickly before retreating back to her castle, on her way to her room.
"Where are you going?! Wait!" He said, trying to see what's wrong with the Empress, and why she looked nervous.
She was nervous, because the full moon was coming soon, and one look at it, even if it was accidental, would spell the end of her city, and possibly her Empire. And she just couldn't let it happen as she rushed back to her room, ignoring the guards that watched her run in her skimpy gym clothes.
Where, once back in her room, she ran to her bathroom, and got a pair of sharp scissors that she uses to cut off her son's regrowing tails, which she expected since he was young, and his grew back a couple times. But she thought her own tail was a different story since she's older than Goku, and she would be at a certain age when a grown up Saiyan's tail would stay off for the rest of his/her life should he/she get it chopped off again.
Guess she was wrong on that part as she prepared for the pain of cutting her tail off.
As the blades ended up hovering near her tail however, she was gonna close the scissors and cut off her tail for what she believes is the last time when she paused. The reason being, is that she ended up remembering Gohan's words to Goku that she remembers was his final words being said after getting wounded by her son's transfomation. Which was to embrace his heritage, but to not let it consume him.
Which was odd, since Goku didn't seem to know what he is, or why he has a tail like she does. Then she realized, Gohan was telling Goku to embrace his Saiyan heritage, while he should try to not be like the rest of her race, who would destroy planets and sell them to the highest bidder as she told Gohan about. Which she used to do herself back in Bardock's crew. But she no longer does that now, and she would rather put the past of destroying planets behind her, since she's now done with that after what Frieza has done to her planet.
That was when she started to then remember the training in the past that she's done while younger, as well as eavesdropped on when she snuck around on the training facility that the elites would be taught in. (Considering that she was a low class alongside Bardock's crew, she had to learn about the top training somehow.) And that was when she learned about the tail control, where the Saiyans would train their tails so they won't lose their strength when they get grasped there. Which reminded Fasha that there is a way to overcome the tail weakness.
Nonetheless though, she knew that it'd not help with the full moon situation that she's in as she prepared herself for the pain again as she started to open the scissors again to cut off her tail.
That was when, she thought about the training that Gohan put her through. Which included the meditation training that she and Goku went through after she found Goku with him in Mt. Paozu. Which was when she learned about how it's basically mental exorcise. Which at the time, she thought was a boring exorcise since she was a Saiyan lady of action. And the mental exorcise would've been too boring for her to listen to. But then she realized at this point that there is benefits to meditation.
Because she would use that kind of training to strengthen her mind, and that would mean she can control her transformed self that way too. All she could think about at this moment, was excitement, and surprise.
That caused her to retract the scissors away from her tail before she could cut it, before closing them and putting them back in the cup that holds her other bathroom tools. All while she was giggling to herself as she facepalmed. "Why the hell didn't I think about that before? All this time as Empress, and I forgot to remind myself of what I should also be doing while I train to become a Super Saiyan." She thought with both a grimace and a chuckle at what she could've done as Empress. "By the moons, and kami, I'm an idiot."
But nevertheless, she knew what she has to do now, as she then started to giggle more loudly in the bathroom, which turned into full blown cackling laughter that she knew was being muffled from the outside. "But that's okay, because I know what to do too while I train. And soon, my son will be done with that quest, and he shall join me on my own quest to become the elite Super Saiyan of legend, tighten my hold on this world, and make that bastard Frieza pay for killing my people! It shall be glorious!" She then said grinning widely as she prepared to train back in her gym, now with her new regiments in mind.
Meanwhile, back with the gang…
The trio was on the path as they continued onwards through the path on their way to Fire Mountain. With Chi-Chi taking a little nap in the backseat while Goku was in the front seat with Bulma as they felt it getting a bit hotter than last time in the desert. Which was a tell tale sign that they were getting closer to Fire Mountain.
Which is much to Bulma's joy and dismay since they're getting close to their Dragon ball that they're desiring to get, yet they're also getting out of a hot place, and they're heading towards a more hotter place, which is equal to going 'out of the frying pan and into the fire.' (So to speak.)
And Bulma isn't fond of hot places, unless she's at a beach, on a cruise ship, or a swimming pool.
She was gonna use her dragon radar to tell her how far she was to Fire Mountain, when she ended up seeing some smoke in the distance. Which she knew has to be coming from the fire of the Mountain that she was going towards. Which had her both cringing and smiling at the sight, feeling that the sooner they can get the dragon ball, (Probably by saving the mountain.) the better. So she just kept going towards the smoke while telling Goku that they're getting closer.
While little did they know, the Bandit was right behind them.
"Wow! Look at the size of that fire! And is that a castle that I see?" He asked, seeing a large castle that looked like a stone castle that was close to the fire. "Poor guy. Whoever owns that castle must be crying." He said feeling bad for the Ox king.
"I know. I'd probably put all my power into trying to save my home if my house was in this situation." Bulma said, getting out of the car.
Both of them then ended up looking around at the castle's surroundings, with Bulma trying to find an opening to enter the castle safely and grab the Dragon Ball inside without getting cremated. "There's gotta be a way inside to safely grab the ball and go. Although Goku might be soft hearted enough to want to save that castle before getting the ball, so this could get complicated." Bulma thought
Before she could think about how to give Goku an opening into the castle to take the ball inside, a large axe flew a little close to her head before embedding into a large rock that was nearby, much to her shock and horror, and Goku's surprise. "Hopefully I won't need to change my pants afterwards." Bulma thought.
Then they both turned at what Bulma could describe as a horrifying sight. A large menacing stout man with tan skin, and a dark brown beard, that towered over both of them. He looked like a barbarian, that wore a golden horned helmet with goggles, and a blue feather on top, that covered his upper head. With a purple tank top tunic with gold stars on where his ribs are, cyan blue cloth that was wrapped around by a white sash, dark blue pants, and dark gray boots. He looked enormous, and intimidating in Bulma's eyes.
And he was out for blood.
"I don't know what you're doing here. But you're in my territory, and you're gonna have to leave, or die." He said with a growl.
"P-p-please! We haven't come here to pillage! We just came here for something!" Bulma said as Goku looked on curiously, wondering if he's quite strong. Bulma felt though, that she's dead meat since he didn't seem to be in the mood to listen to her at the time.
"Well if it's treasure you want, you're not taking it. If it's trouble you want, then you found it!" He then said, pulling out another axe to throw, this time to split Bulma in half alongside Goku.
Only for Goku to know what is gonna happen, so he shouted out for the nimbus before he could throw the axe. By the time the axe was sailing in the air, Goku's nimbus ended up zooming at his location, causing him to jump on the nimbus, then swoop in and save Bulma in the nick of time. Now she was carried bridal style by Goku before being put back on the ground safely.
Bulma felt like swooning at the feeling of being in Goku's arms, since it was like she was in a hero's arms. Even if the hero in question was a kid. "Mmm… If you were a bit older, I would've been willing to give you one hell of a kiss." She thought. Before she had to get her mind out of the gutter since she might need his mother's permission if she's to marry him. That is, if she was more inclined.
As the Bandit in question saw what was happening around the corner, so he waited for the battle to intensify between the Ox King and Goku, before interfering.
Only for it to suddenly end when the Ox King was shocked at the save the boy did, then he noticed what the boy was standing on, which made him suddenly more shocked. "Is… that? Hey boy, what's your name?" he asked.
"My name is Goku. I'm a prince of my mom's Empire." He said.
"Prince?! Prince of your mom's Empire? Y-you mean, your mom's the Pink Demoness?! But you seem to be a nice boy, and you're riding the Nimbus! But how?!" He said shocked.
"Well, that's cause I got this from Roshi, after I saved his turtle." He responded.
"ROSHI GAVE THAT TO YOU!? That must mean, you might be his friend?! My apologies for the attack, I didn't know!" He said groveling by him.
"It's alright. It's okay. You thought that we were intruders that tried to steal from you, it's not a big deal. I know my mom would be the same way if we had intruders ourselves." He said, instantly forgiving Ox king. While Bulma looked at him in confusion at how fast the mood changed. "So Chi Chi wasn't lying about his goofiness? That's relieving, and funny to see." Bulma said, trying not to giggle.
"Let's cut to the chase though, we're here to help." Goku said.
"Help? If it involves extinguishing our castle's flames, then I'll take all the help that you'll give." He said. "Do you have the Bansho fan that Roshi gave you?"
"Bansho- Nope, I was given only this nimbus, and a Dragon Ball when we met, nothing else." Goku responded, remembering being told about the fan from Chi-Chi, but not having it in his possession.
"Well, since you know Roshi, then you might know where he lives! So please find his home, and see if you can get the Bansho Fan from him, or bring him here. I'll give you anything as a reward." He begged.
"Well, we're looking for another Dragon Ball, and we were told that you have one. In case you don't know, by the way, they look like this." Goku then said taking out his four star Ball from his bag to show the Ox King.
"Oh, so that's a Dragon Ball? So be it, if you can find Roshi, and extinguish the fire around our home, then our Ball is all yours." He then said. "OH! I almost forgot! While you're out, please find my-" He tried to say, before the looked at the vehicle that they came in, and saw someone exiting it.
That someone being his daughter, Chi Chi herself as she looked around looking like she just woke up from her nap. "*Yawn* We're back home already?" She said. Then she looked back at him. "Daddy? Daddy!" She yelled out excitedly, running to him.
"Chi Chi! Ooh, thank goodness you're safe!" He then said as he embraced her in his arms again. "I see that they helped you get back home, did they not?"
"Of course they did daddy. I'm happy that they were kind enough to help me come back here." Chi Chi said happily.
"Thank goodness. Thank you friends, for also helping my daughter find her way back home. Now, once the flames are extinguished from my home, you shall receive the Dragon Ball as a reward. I promise you that." Ox king said, also happy.
"Sounds good to me, I'll be right back." He said, only for Chi Chi to stop him before he could take off.
When he turned, wondering why she stopped him, she hopped on his nimbus as well. "May I come with him daddy? I know he will protect me on our way there." She said.
Ox King had to think about it for a bit, since he was sure that she and Goku might've just met each other, which normally would mean she would be too timid and shy to want to be near anybody that isn't himself. Yet she wants to ride on the Nimbus with Prince Goku of all people, which is a sign that either she could be coming out of her bubble and getting a little more confidence in herself, or that she might be willing to make friends (And possibly find romance too.) with the Prince of the Fashian Empire due to his class.
It was almost like she felt, that Goku is the one for her.
Either way, the Ox King was initially reluctant to let her go with Goku, but seeing how nice Goku looks, which is a contrast to the tales of his mother's personality, he started to change his mind. "Okay Chi Chi. You may go with him, but please be careful around Roshi." He said to her and Goku.
"We will. Be right back!" He said, before taking his Nimbus, and flying away in the direction of the ocean where Roshi's house should be.
"Why should they be careful around Roshi? Could it be because he's some perv?" Bulma asked.
"Oh yes, undeniably a pervert. He could be good with martial arts, having taught me alongside Son Gohan, but lousy in getting lucky with a lady due to his… issues with his hormones." He responded to Bulma, confirming her suspicions about the Turtle Hermit.
"I knew it." She thought annoyed, yet relieved that he didn't make a move on her thanks to Pilaf's ambush.
Some time ended up passing, as Goku and Chi Chi was now flying over the ocean, taking in the view of the deep blue water that they flew over on their way to Roshi's house.
And both of them had to say, they hope they can stay near a beach with a temporary home when they end up on vacation, whether they would be with their parents, or possibly on a honeymoon should they marry in the future since they both liked the sight of the ocean. Also, Goku did like to swim around, especially with Fasha when they are alone with no one peeking on them. And Goku hoped that he can do that with Chi Chi too when they both have the time.
Right now though, they had to find Roshi's house, and see if he's still there with the Bansho fan.
After a couple minutes, and some directions given to Goku from some smart fish, they eventually came across Kame Island as they flew around it, seeing that Roshi was outside the house sweeping the leaves off his Island.
"Hey! Roshi! It's me!" He called out to Roshi as he flew around his house, grabbing Roshi's attention.
"Wha? Is that you? Ah! I'll be damned, it's the young Prince with the Nimbus!" He said smiling at him. "And I see you have another companion!"
Chi Chi was looking at Roshi, and didn't believe that she is looking at the Turtle Hermit himself. "Is that old guy, really Master Roshi?" She asked herself as they descended onto his island. While both of them ended up noticing that Turtle was also on the Island not far from Roshi.
Where they proceeded to get off the nimbus and onto the island as Roshi walked towards them to meet them. "Well, I didn't think that we'd meet again so soon. Have you got your Dragon Balls yet?" He asked.
"Not really, but we're getting close. We're gonna grab the Dragon Ball from the Ox King's place, but we need to put out the fire first." Goku said. "This is Chi Chi by the way, she's the daughter of the Ox King. And he sent us here for the Bansho Fan."
"Really? Ah yes, I didn't hear from that guy in years. You know, I used to be his sensei myself, and I believe your Grandfather was also his classmate," Roshi explained as he was telling Goku and Chi Chi about himself and his teachings.
While he did that though, Chi Chi wasn't really convinced that he was the Turtle Hermit. "Are you sure that's the guy that gave you the Nimbus?"
"Yep, why do you ask?" He asked.
"He doesn't look like a master of Martial Arts, he looks more like some old islander, especially with that shirt he's wearing. And I reckon he's a perv." Chi Chi said. "Only one way to find out. If he's really the Martial Arts Master, he's gonna have to prove it." She then said.
Then she got into a fighting stance that is nothing like Goku's. Then she launched herself at Roshi's direction with the intent to see if he can dodge her slap, since he should have great reflexes to dodge the slap if he was really Master Roshi.
She miscalculated however, as Roshi was able to see the attack coming, yet he tried to counter it with his cane. Only to be a little slow on the draw as Chi Chi's hand connected to his cheek, and sent him flying right into a tree. Where after he landed on his butt, a coconut landed on his head, giving him a cartoonish bump.
Goku had to stifle his giggles at the sight, while Chi Chi was pretty disappointed that the old master wasn't what she expected. "Yikes, that had to hurt." Turtle said, having seen the entire thing.
Roshi was getting up while rubbing his head after briefly passing out from the coconut dropping on him. "Owowowow! What did you do that for?!"
"I was just seeing if you're really Master Roshi. After all, the martial arts master should be able to dodge my slap." Chi Chi responded.
"Well even a master like me wouldn't have been fast enough to dodge that slap you know!" He responded annoyed. Then he showed her his business card as proof that he is the real Master Roshi.
That card convinced her that she has indeed slapped Roshi into the tree. Which had her ashamed of her action as she apologized to Roshi for the unexpected attack. "Oooh! I'm sorry. I'm really sorry! I should've known sooner!"
Roshi was still annoyed at her, but he forgave her since she is the daughter of his best friend. "So Goku, you said that you're here for the Bansho Fan? Well, I might as well give the thing to you, since you're probably still doing good with the Kamehameha technique. I'd rather not leave the Prince disappointed after coming all the way here." Roshi said.
Chi Chi and Goku was celebrating the fact that Roshi happened to be generously giving them the Bansho fan as he ventured back into his house to search for the Bansho Fan.
"Oh by the way, that other lady that you were with, what was her name?!" Roshi called out from the house.
"Bulma. And I'm still with her by the way. Why do you ask?" He called back.
"I was wondering if you can do me a little favor! I would like to at the very least, have a little walk with her on this island after the fire is out, and after her journey ends. After all, I did play a part in putting the fire out!" Roshi said, having not forgotten about how pretty Bulma is. Even if he got interrupted by Pilaf's ambush on the beach, he feels that he could've gotten her to… show her panties to him. (Which he never really got her to do, due to giving the Ball away to Goku after being impressed by his Kamehameha wave.)
"I don't know, she seems to have her eyes on that Desert Bandit that we met. And she seems to be attracted to him, even though he tried to rob us, and even though he ran away when he saw her, for some reason." Goku said.
"Welp, if they do hook up, then there goes my chance to get to know her. Oh well, I'll just find another for me." Roshi thought as he continued to search his house for the Fan. "I promise her that I won't be up to anything bad if she does say yes. Although I'll understand if she hooks up with that Bandit!" Roshi said to Goku.
It didn't take long, until he found the Bansho Fan itself that he gave to Goku and Chi Chi. "Here you go, sorry if it feels sticky, I accidentally spilled my juice on it one time." He said.
"No problem. At least we have the fan, thank you Roshi." Goku said as he and Chi Chi was on his nimbus again. "One more thing Roshi, may I come back here after my journey with Bulma is done, I would like to bring mommy here with me, so we'll be trained by you." He asked.
"Wait a minute, you already executed my Kamehameha technique, and you've already been trained by Gohan, and yet you still want me to train you? And with your mother as well?"
"Of course." Goku said smiling at him. "I know that I still had more to learn from Gohan when he died, and I heard that you trained him, so I was hoping that you'd train me and mommy too. So, may you do that if it's not too much trouble?" Goku asked.
"Well… if I must. So be it." Roshi said hesitantly, hoping that Fasha won't obliterate him and show him why she's called the Pink Demoness if she sees him as just another boring Master of Martial Arts.
"Thank you Roshi! And I'll see if I can persuade Bulma when I see her." He said as he and Chi Chi was on his nimbus, and was soon on their way back to Fire Mountain.
Goku and Chi Chi was now on the nimbus in front of the flames of Fire Mountain, ready to swing the Bansho Fan against the flames to create the strong enough wind to put the fire out.
After they got back to Fire Mountain, they cheerfully told Bulma and Ox King that Roshi had the Bansho Fan, and he generously gave them the Fan since Goku owed him a favor. Which is for Bulma to go on a walk with him on his island.
Bulma was unamused and annoyed about the favor, but she knew that she might have no choice since she owed Roshi a favor. And no favor should be broken, without risk of death, or irreparably breaking someone's friendship. So Bulma reluctantly said yes to walking with him, feeling that she's gonna get her perfect boyfriend who would make this journey, and walking with an old perverted man, worth it.
While the Ox King was also proud of Goku for being able to have the Bansho Fan in his hands. As well as excited like his daughter is, in being able to return to his castle again.
Now, both Goku and Chi Chi were prepared to swing the Fan to put out the fire when Goku noticed a lake that was nearby. That was when an idea struck him. "Wait Chi Chi! Why don't we use that village's water to make a tsunami to put out the fire!" He said.
Chi Chi was also focusing on the lake, and she was wondering if the water from the ghost village is able to reach the mountain of fire, and put it out that way. She had a lot of doubts in her mind, but she felt that it could be worth a shot. "Okay Goku. Let's give it a go."
They then got to the other side of the lake as Ox King and Bulma, (And Yamcha and Puar.) looked on confused at what they were doing. Then with a mighty swing, Chi Chi used the Bansho Fan to create enough of a strong wind to see if the tsunami can be made.
Much to her shock, it was made after another swing from the Bansho Fan. Which was surprisingly able to create the big wave that was able to envelop the mountain in a few moments after the water from the abandoned village was entirely emptied out to create the flood, followed by pouring rain from the clouds after the second swing from the Bansho Fan.
And much to their joy, the fire was put out by the water, and the downpour of rain. Even though the castle of the Ox king's was partially ruined in the process. But it's better than being all the way ruined.
"Yaaaaaaay! We did it! The fire's out!" Chi Chi yelled out as she glomped Goku on the nimbus.
"Heck yea! We did it alright!" Goku also said happily, not minding getting glomped by Chi Chi. Who was blushing at what she was doing.
The Ox King was also celebrating having his home get saved by the Bansho Fan, as Bulma was also celebrating being able to earn the Dragon Ball from the Ox King. She knew now, that their adventure was about to come to an end, and that she's gonna wish for her perfect boyfriend soon enough. Even though she knew that she has to go on another adventure for the Dragon Balls for Fasha, so she knew that she has to brace herself for at least one more adventure for Fasha until she gets her own wish granted.
She did think that Goku was useful, but she also thought of Goku as more than a tool. Especially since he was nice to her regardless of the times she was annoyed at him for the tail thing, not to mention him taking her panties off while she slept. Which she forgave him for since nobody saw her lower body. Regardless of all of that, he remained polite to her, which is one hell of a contrast to Fasha's iron willed, strict, authoritarian, iron fisted personality. Which had her feeling that she should be a bit more friendlier to Goku in the future.
After the celebrations have ended, they all ended up noticing that it was sunset since Goku and Chi Chi ran through the desert with an unconscious Bulma on his back instead of waking up, and having her using her other motorcycle. So Ox King and Chi Chi agreed to let Bulma and Goku stay with them at their castle for a day, then send them off for their last Dragon Ball.
First though, they needed to rebuild the broken parts of their castle on the Mountain. Which wasn't much of a problem for Ox King since he was a strong big guy. Plus, he got help from Goku as well. Whom surprised him with his own strength.
So far, it's a fun time to be Goku and Bulma.
*Time skip*
Or, at the time, it was a fun time to be them, until the next day's beginning.
"AAAAAAAUGH!" Bulma screamed out.
The reason why she screamed, was because on their next and last day in the Ox King's home, the Dragon Ball, which was the one that Ox King and Chi Chi owned, was stolen from them by a little drone with helicopter blades, and a claw on the bottom like from the claw game machines that she sees in arcades, and restaurants, etc.
And that was when the newly healed Yamcha and Puar was also about to swipe the ball himself too, only to end up meeting her in person in the same room, causing his fear of girls to kick in while also being reminded of his accidental peeping that he did on Bulma. While Bulma also blushed at the memory of having been peeped on by Yamcha, which she was both flattered and a bit angry about.
That was when the drone took the time to take the Ball from under their nose, and take off in a direction while cackling in a familiar voice to Bulma's ears, much to Bulma and Yamcha's chagrin. She then realized and was told by Yamcha, that the drone belonged to Pilaf, the wannabe Emperor of the world, and the little blue imp that ambushed them when they first met Roshi on the beach for his dragon ball.
After that, and after meeting back up with Goku, Bulma and Yamcha ended up joining forces to take down Pilaf and get back the Dragon Ball. Which forced Goku to put his hostility against Yamcha aside for now.
Now they were on Yamcha's desert vehicle car as they were now saying goodbye to the Ox King and Chi Chi, thanking them for their hospitality, and their kindness.
"I will miss you Chi Chi, I hope we can go swimming again!" Goku called out with a tiny blush.
"And I hope we'll train together with Roshi and your mom once your journey is done!" Chi Chi responded, also blushing.
The reason why they were blushing, was because after their castle was repaired yesterday, Chi Chi and the Ox King gave them guest rooms to stay in. One of which, was close to an entrance to the Ox King's open air Onsen and outdoor private pool room. The latter of which, Goku ended up swimming in after a celebratory feast that Goku took part in, much to Bulma's exasperation at how Goku could still eat so much. Even having a little eating competition with the Ox King.
And it was in the pool room, that Chi Chi joined Goku in. Where she saw that Goku swam in the nude. Much to her embarrassment, but she wasn't offended in the slightest about that as she later swam with him. Where she eventually got brave enough to join him in swimming in the nude. Much to his surprise at how she's like his mother and Bulma in some way. (Especially… in what's between her legs.)
Other than some pecking kissing, swim racing, and even some underwater kisses, they never got past the line where they could do 'that thing that the adults do' with each other. After all, neither of them were ready for it yet, since Goku wasn't that curious enough for that, and Chi Chi was still too shy to go all the way with him. But they had fun, and they would be willing to do it again someday, should they reunite.
"Okay Bulma, the car's ready! Are you?" Yamcha asked.
"Damn right I am! That Pilaf is going to pay for ruining our journey for the Dragon Balls!" Bulma said angrily and determined.
"Goodbye my friends! I hope we can see each other again someday!" Ox King said, waving goodbye to them.
"I hope so too! Bye Ox King!" Goku responded.
Soon, they were zooming on the road, and on their way to where the drone went, where they hope that they'll take back the Dragon Ball from Pilaf, hopefully find the last Dragon Ball in the same place, and then end the journey for the Dragon Balls, for now at least.
Bulma just hopes, that she'll get her wish from this journey before Fasha ends up finding out about their little situation.
Meanwhile… back in Fasha City, in Fasha's Castle…
There was grunting in the private gym room of Fasha's as Fasha herself was going through training. Only it was a different kind of training.
"Come on Fasha, don't let Bardock down!" She grunted out as she kept a struggling hold on the cord that held her weights up.
The reason why she was struggling, was because she was pulling on one of the weight stacks on her heavy duty, double stack, dual cable pulldown, exorcise machine. With one of the stacks having her tail in between the lead weights as part of her training for her tail to get used to the squeezing pressure of the lead weights, simulating the tight grip that her enemy would have when her tail gets caught.
Which is what she remembered learning from the eavesdropping on the training that the elite Saiyans would go through, only they would go outside and use large heavy rocks on their tails instead of the lead weights that she was using. (Which made her sneaking and eavesdropping pretty easy since there wasn't many teachers outside that would notice and expect a low class like her sneaking around.)
And that would be before her meditation training that she would also be reading from Gohan's journals from his house that was surprisingly intact and undamaged throughout Goku's transformed rampage on that fateful day of Gohan's death.
Right now, she had three lead weights on her tail, each of which weighed forty pounds to multiply up to one hundred twenty. And yet she felt that there was more than that many pounds on her tail as she was pulling on the cable to lift them back up to remove her tail from in between them after a few hours of having crushed her tail in between them, just so she can add a little more weights onto it. (With the maximum total of weights in her machine, being twenty-five. Which makes up a total of one thousand pounds of weights in the machine. And that's the machine with the lightest lead weights that she was using so far.)
She was pretty weakened by the pressure on her tail though, as she struggled to lift the cable from off her tail. Nevertheless, she knew she making progress on her training her tail, and freeing her tail as the weights were getting lifted into the air.
"Almost… got it! I'm nearly there!" She said, seeing the weights in the air as she was recovering from the crushing pressure on her tail.
*Ring Ring Ring*
She was startled by the sudden ringing of her phone. Which caused the cable to slip out of her hand and cause the lead weights to fall back down onto the stack in the machine. And she forgot to remove her tail from in between them.
*CLANG*
She had to clench her jaw shut to prevent herself from screaming out loud from the pain of her tail having been crushed by the lead weights. She didn't stop herself from loudly grunting at the pain though as she miraculously was able to keep on standing on her feet.
She was able to quickly get her tail to slip out from between the weights, even though she cringed at the sight of a section of her tail being flattened sorta like a cartoon animal's tail, or fingers whenever they get squashed too.
She ignored the sight for now though, before she ran to her phone in annoyance and anger at who was calling her at this time of day. Only to see her son's caller ID on her phone. Which had her swallowing her rage for now at the sight of Goku's picture, before she then accepted the call, putting Goku on the line.
"Hello Goku?" Fasha said, trying not to sound pained from her accident with her tail.
"Hey mommy. How are you doing?" Goku's voice on the phone asked. While there was some backround noise like Goku was on the road again with Bulma.
"I'm doing fine. Just going through a new training regimen that I look forward to putting you through as well." Fasha responded.
"That's good… I hope… that it's gonna be fun. And I'm glad that you're doing… good." Goku said awkwardly.
Which Fasha noticed. "Are you alright my son?" She asked, feeling concerned for him.
"I'm fine. It's just that… I have good news and bad news."
"Well, give me the good news."
"The good news, is that we have one Dragon Ball left to find." Goku said.
Which made Fasha happy as she tried not to jump around with joy like some dorky cheerleader from a high school movie. Her squished tail helped with that as she was still reminded of her painful accident. "And the bad news?"
"The Dragon Ball that we had… found, that was in Fire Mountain… was… stolen from us." Goku quickly said the last part.
That wasn't the news Fasha expected. And it wasn't the news that she wanted either. As she prevented herself from getting furious at her own son for failing to gain and keep the Dragon Ball in question, since it was more the fault of someone else that stole it, and not her son. "And who was that ass clown that stole our Dragon Ball?" She asked angrily.
"A-A blue skinned imp, named Emperor Pilaf. That's what I was told from a bandit guy from the Desert." He responded.
The name sounded familiar to Fasha, as she remembered that there was a little imp that happened to be named Pilaf that owned a section of the desert that she was sure she exiled Oolong to. Whom she then remembered, having kidnapped and interrogated one of the spies that due to her fear making presence, told her the name of the guy which was similar to the name she just heard from Goku. She also heard that he says he is Emperor of the world, even though he merely conquered and owned a portion of the desert through unknown means, has only two henchmen that she remembered was a Shiba Inu, and a woman that was recruited from a want ad, and only has scouts that are relatively harmless since they harmed none of her city's people, and works for an incompetent Imp.
Normally, she would be mocking and laughing at the name of the imp who said he's Emperor, when in reality, she's the Empress who would conquer Earth someday. But the fact that the Emperor ended up stealing a Dragon Ball from Goku and Bulma, made her more annoyed and angered that this Emperor Pilaf would be ballsy enough to do such a thing, knowing that she'd be out for revenge.
"So it's like this huh Pilaf? Well, better get ready, because I'm ready to show you why they call me the Pink Demoness. And soon, you're gonna regret ever crossing me." She thought. Then she responded to Goku, while once again, speaking softly yet angrily. "Thank you for the information my son. Now, make sure to tell me where that little bastard lives, so that we will take back the Dragon Balls with my army, and punish him and his minions for his thievery."
"T-that's what I'm going to do once we arrive at where he lives mommy. After all, that was rude and mean of him to steal that Ball from us." Goku responded.
"Especially since you were so close to getting done with the gathering of those Dragon Balls. He thinks that he can get away with this? He thought wrong." Fasha said. "After that, we're all coming back here, making a wish to the dragon, executing that little bastard, and then we shall begin the new training regimen that shall be different from the training that we did before this journey.
"And… we're also going to… Master Roshi's place to… train with him, right mommy?"
"Hmm? Who is Roshi? Wait! Isn't he the Master that trained Gohan? I thought he was dead." She said, having been told a little about him by Gohan, who was gonna tell her more about him when he died.
"Y-yes mommy. He's the Martial Arts master alright. And I was hoping that he could train us too."
"If the training isn't boring, and if it also helps us exorcise our strength, then we'll see." Fasha said. "But we're still gonna be training ourselves too. After all, after the festival ends, we're having the annual world tournament in a year." She said smiling.
"You mean … we're having the world martial arts tournament? And it's gonna be my first tournament?!" He asked excitedly.
"You bet your ass there is." She said cockily. "And soon, my son, you shall show the world how strong you are, and why you're my Prince of my Empire."
"Oh, I can't wait. I hope we can survive this adventure to take part."
"I hope so too. Now, call me once you're at the place where that bastard lives, so that me and my army will take him down. Also, do be careful." She said.
"Will do mommy, love you."
"Love you too. Bye." She said.
After Goku said bye to her too, she ended the call on her phone, then cringed as she refocused on her tail that she was now nursing. "Note to self, start with the lightest weights first. And lower the volume of my phone." She thought, blowing on her tail.
And done.
Here's another chapter for the Fashian Empire. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter and I hope that you all might enjoy my future chapters for this too.
Also, yes, Chi Chi and goku is my main pairing for this fic. I legit like them together, regardless of how annoying she became in Dragon ball z, (Particularly in the early episodes and some of the filler episodes. Like the DMV one.) and the flaws in their relationship. I also thought that she was adorable in dragon ball. (Regardless of what she wore. I legit wonder who designed her that way?) Also Fasha will play a role in their relationship to justify putting her in the pairing bracket.
Also, as for Roshi, he will have his moments, but he won't be too perverted in this fic. He shall show off his badass moments a little more than his perverted moments, since it's already been done before in the other fics. Most of which I didn't read, but I'm certain that it's been done a lot on this site.
Also, yes, Fasha is keeping her tail so that she's gonna transform into the oozaru form alongside Goku. Let's just say I have plans for thier Oozaru forms in my head and on my story checklist. Also, the exorcise that Fasha was going through at the end of this chapter was inspired by the 35th Dragon Ball SD chapter. If you like the what if materials for Dragon ball, then check out that manga, it's interesting, and it's pretty funny too.
Finally one more thing.
I hope that you enjoyed the chapter,
please give constructive criticism, just don't be rude,
