Trouble with Chibis - Chapter 1

[Xyex]

A/N: This starts a year and 2 months after Kid Buu's defeat. Also, this starts kinda... blah. But it'll pick up, promise. ^^ Now, this is an action story. Face it, that's what I'm best at. But there's going to be (hopefully) lots of fun and humor where the Chibis are involved and their... escapades. ^_^

Chapter One - The Wish

Capsule Corp:

"I don't know about this Trunks." Goten said softly so that no one else would hear him and adjusting his gi.

"Don't be such a baby Goten." the other chibi replied, his voice muffled as he dug through a large box. "This is going to be great!"

"But Trunks!" Goten nearly whined. "What if our moms catch us?" He glanced around the lab nervously. He didn't want a repeat of the previous month where his head met with Chi-Chi's frying pan, and he'd ended up without food for a whole day! Once was enough for him.

"Don't worry so much Goten! If you don't blab like you did last time they'll never know!" Trunks suddenly grinned and pulled his head out of the box. "Tada! I knew mom had a spare!" he cried holding up the Dragon Radar. "Now we just find the rest of them and wish for.... Hmm, hey Goten, what should we wish for anyway?"

Goten scratched the back of his head. "Ummm, I don't know. I just want to see the Dragon!"

Trunks started thinking as he paced around the room. "Well, we could... no, that wont do... Hmmm... Oh, hey! How about we wish for an infinite supply of food!?"

Goten's eyes went wide with excitment and he started jumping up and down. "Ya! That's a great idea Trunks! Let's go!" Trunks nodded and activated the Radar. "Now let's see.... We have the four and two star balls already... where are the rest... oh hey, look, we're in luck! There's two of them here in the city not too far away!"

"Alright! Let's go!" Goten cheered pumping a fist into the air.

"Quiet!" Trunks cried in a whisper. "Or they'll hear you!"

"Oops, sorry." Goten pouted following his friend out of the room and then out of the Capsule Corp. building.

Once out in the open Trunks checked the Radar again. "Let's see, they're about four blocks... that way." he said turning and walking off with Goten trailing right behind. They'd only gone two blocks when Trunks groaned. "Things are so boring now!" he said. "I mean, it's been over a year and no new villains have shown up! Fighting Majin Buu was fun..." He kicked a stone on the sidewalk off into the distance and out of sight. "Hmmm, maybe we should wish for some fun?"

"But what about the food?" Goten whined.

"We get two wishes Goten." Trunks reminded him as the Radar indicated that they'd arrived at their destination. "We can wish for the food and for some excitement!" Turning the chibi looked up at the building they were now outside of. It was a simple six story structure with a wood sign over the front door that read 'Antiques and Artifacts'. With a shrug he and Goten entered.

The room was full of lots of old and expensive looking things and sitting right on the shelf by the door were the two Dragonballs. The five and six star balls. "Oh, cool!" Goten said picking them up. "That was easy!"

"Hey!" a man shouted from the counter. "Put those down, they're rare and expensive! It'd take you kids your entire lives to buy those if you broke them!"

Trunks looked toward the counter and saw an aging bald man glaring at them through his thick glasses. "These are Dragonballs idiot, they don't break." Trunks yelled over. "And anyway, how much are they?"

"Five thousand Zenni." the man said not taking his eyes off the two boys. "Now put them ba..."

"That's all?" Trunks asked walking up to the counter. "That's ten thousand total... only a month's allowance. I thought they'd have been more." he said digging through a pocket in his shorts. A second later he pulled out a small card with the Capsule Corps. CC logo on it and his name. "Here, just swipe that, I have enough... haven't bought anything in months so it's all just sitting there."

The man frowned and looked at the card as he was about to yell at the kid for wasting his time with games. Then he saw the name and the little photo on the card. "Trunks Briefs..." he said in shock.

"Ya, ya, just hurry up okay? We're in a hurry."

"Ya.... sure..." he said ringing up the sale and swiping the card.

A minute later Goten and Trunks were outside again checking the Dragon Radar. "Hmm... well, these four here in the middle are the ones we have... and... oh wow, this is easy!" Trunks said happily. "Look Goten, the last three are all gathered up north!"

"Oh cool! We'll have them in no time now! Come on Trunks, let's go!" Goten said taking off into the air. Trunks soon shot after him and caught up to him quickly. "At this rate we'll have our wishes and be home in time for lunch!"

The Lookout:

Gohan slipped to the right and avoided his father's punch without even trying. Goku quickly launched a kick toward the other's head but that was dodged as well. Every other day it was the same thing, Goku and Gohan would spar at the lookout and Goku would never land a hit. Even after over a year Goku's power hadn't increased enough to catch Gohan even though the Demi Saiya-jin's power was holding at the same level it had been at against Super Buu.

"Man... your power is amazing!" Goku said as he powered back down to base. "You're still well beyond me Gohan."

Gohan nodded. "Yeah, looks that way. Though it's probably because of the strain of being in level three. Knowing you though dad, you'll catch up in no time."

Goku grinned. "Yeah, but it's going to be tough! Not that it wont be fun too." He walked over to the edge of the lookout and looked down at the Earth. "Still feels strange being alive again though." He turned his head skyward and looked out at the stars. "You know, I learned something while staying on the Grand Kai's world. I didn't really think about it all that much at first, even after being revived. I guess because I was still getting used to being alive again but... lately I keep going back to it."

"Oh?" Gohan asked walking over to him while casting a glance over to Videl. He'd not seen his father look this... thoughtful before. "What was it?"

"Well... you probably don't really remember when Raditz first came, do you?" Gohan shook his head no. "Didn't think so." Goku said. "You were only four at the time. Well, he said that there were only four Saiya-jins left. Him, Nappa, Vegeta, and myself."

Goku pursed his lips as he thought back to a conversation he'd had on the Grand Kai's world about a year before Buu showed up. The alien had been a new arrival on the planet and had been killed in a battle for his world. He'd told those there the story of his death. About the attacking soldiers dressed in odd armors and with tails around their waists. "I met someone a couple years ago in Otherworld that had other information. He'd fought against a team of Saiya-jins only days before arriving on the Grand Kai's planet."

"What? But, how?" Gohan asked. "Wouldn't Vegeta have known about any other survivors?"

"That's what I'd thought at first too." Goku said as he looked back down at the Earth. "But I got King Kai's help and we tracked them down. Sure enough they were Saiya-jins, and there were five of them. We watched them return to their world, it was a mix of races living there, but there were even more Saiya-jins on the planet. King Kai talked to the South Kai about it, they were in his Galaxy."

"And?" Videl asked curious. "What'd you find out?"

Goku sighed. "Seems the Saiya-jins originated in the East Galaxy. Their world was dying though so they migrated. During the journey there was a falling out of sorts between the two groups of Saiya-jins. One came here to the North Galaxy, the others went to the South Galaxy. Both sides forgot the other existed after a few centuries."

"Oh wow. So there's still more Saiya-jins out there? How strong are they?" Gohan asked.

"I felt out their powers as I found them and explored the South Galaxy from the Grand Kai's world. The strongest one I found was about as strong as I had been when I first got to Namek. Maybe a little stronger." Goku shook his head. "They're not the same as the Saiya-jins that settled here. They're still warriors but they don't ignore their emotions like Vegeta or Raditz did. They're not cold-blooded killers like the ones that settled here. They're far more peaceful than that.

"But they're under the same conditions the Saiya-jins that settled here faced. A strong power, much stronger than them, rules over the South Galaxy. It's not a Changeling though, and he's even stronger than Frieza was. He's about as strong as I was when I first got back to Earth after Namek." Goku sighed again. "More than anyone in that galaxy can handle, and just as evil as Frieza."

"Then, why don't we go there?" Gohan asked. "Help them out, I mean, they are Saiya-jins."

"I was thinking about that. I'm not really sure what to expect when we encounter them. I don't think they'll believe we're Saiya-jins since we don't have our tails, and that they don't know any others exist. We could defeat Furnace and his brother Oven fairly easily but..."

"You'd rather they managed to do it themselves. Like when you had Goten and Trunks fight against Buu instead of dealing with him yourself." Gohan said more than asked. Goku nodded. With a sigh Gohan looked down at the Earth as well. "I can understand that but... they don't have Dragonballs in case things go wrong. And they don't have as much of a chance as we did. Things are a bit different for them than they were for us."

"Gohan's right." Videl said. "From what you've said they really do need your help."

Goku frowned. "I was hoping one of them would become a Super Saiya-jin... though it wouldn't help much as things stand. None of them are strong enough in their base forms to be strong enough as Super Saiya-jins to really do anything against Furnace or Oven."

"Then I say we go." Gohan said. "It would really only take one of us to handle this but I'm actually in the mood for some traveling. I haven't been to space in years, wouldn't mind going out again. We could even stop by New Namek on the way home again and say hello to Moray and the others."

Goku grinned. "Yeah. Alright." He turned and looked back at the shrine and saw Dende standing there, just as he'd thought. "You want to come along too Dende? I'm sure the Earth would be fine for a few months."

"Thanks for the offer Goku." Dende said shaking his head. "But I can't leave my post. If you could say hello to the others for me though..."

"Sure thing kid." Piccolo said as he landed between Dende and Goku. "I'll tell them for you." he said with a small grin.

"Hey, we should see if Goten and Trunks want to go." Gohan said. "Maybe even Krillin and 18 could come along..."

Goku nodded. "You know, we could make a little vacation out of this trip. We'll bring Chi-Chi along too, and I know the boys will want to go. Vegeta will too."

"I'm going too." Videl said. "I'm not passing up a chance to go into space, no way."

"Then it's settled." Goku said. "We're all going to Saiya!"

Gohan turned his head a bit scanning the Earth and girnned. "There's the boys... not sure where they're heading but I'll go catch up with them and tell them." He looked back to Videl again. "You coming with me?"

"Yeah." she said nodding.

Forrest Somewhere:

"Man, this is so boring!" a female voice cried in frustration. "Why do we have to stay here and guard the Dragonballs?"

"Because the boss told us too." a deep voice replied gruffly. "Just be glad she didn't rip your arms off yesterday for nearly losing the Dragonball. I have half a mind to do it myself anyway, it's taken us a month just to find the three we've got."

"I know that!" the female shouted. The owner of the voice reached up and ran a hand through her red hair pulling her bangs away from her blue eyes. She wore a simple outfit of a white T-shirt and a pair of blue jeans. While she looked Human the man in the clearing with her did not. He was large, more of a chubby than a toned look, and orange with scales instead of skin. He was also bald and had two horns growing up out of his head. He was wearing a metallic armor of sorts. "And if you even touch me I'll punch a whole right through you." she said glaring at him.

He laughed. "Always the temper on you Ruby, eh? I'm suprised Jewel puts up with it... you must be pretty good in bed." he chuckled.

Ruby growled and thrust an arm toward the large man firing a stream of purple Ki right through his chest. A moment later the injury was gone. "Next time, Onyx, I'll blow your head off instead."

The large man glared at her with his deepset black eyes until he felt two large powers nearing quickly. "We've got company Ruby." he said uncrossing his arms and looking toward the south where the powers were coming from. "They're fairly strong too."

Ruby turned to look as well and reached out her own senses. "Not to shabby, these too. Almost as strong as you."

Onyx grinned. "Almost, but not quite. So, I wonder who they are? I didn't expect any of these weakling Humans to have this kind of power."

A second later Ruby's eyes widened in shock. "What the hell? They're kids!?" she cired as the two boys landed only a few feet away from them.

"Oh, Trunks, look! It's the last three Dragonballs!" Goten cheered. "We've got them all now!"

"Huh?" Onyx said blinking. Then he noticed the bag strapped to Trunks's waist and could just see a Dragonball through the opening in it. "Heh, heh, heh. Well, what do you know, a delivery service! Nice job kids, Jewel's going to love this! A couple of twerps brought us the last of the Dragonballs!"

"Hey, who you calling twerps?!" Goten cried putting his hands on his hips.

"Quiet Goten, you probably don't even know what that means." Trunks said crossing his arms. "Hmmm, these guys are pretty strong... the girl's actually stronger than us in base. So who are you guys and why do you want the Dragonballs?"

Ruby grinned. "My name is Ruby and this oaf is Onyx. My sisters Emerald and Diamond are out with our boss Jewel trying to track down the last of the Dragonballs, which you've so kindly brought to us. As for why we want them... well, Jewel's after immortality so that she can rule the universe."

Trunks sighed. "Is that all these guys can think of?" he muttered under his breath. "Yeah well, too bad." he said louder so that the other two could hear. "But Goten and I have a couple wishes of our own so just go away."

"Not a chance." Ruby said launching in at them. Trunks grinned and in a flash he transformed and stopped her fist with one finger.

"I've been looking for a good fight." Trunks said. "Dad's way too strong for me and Goten always starts crying..."

"Hey! I do not!" Goten cried moving his hands from his hips and crossing his arms.

"Well, you always complain when you lose anyway." Trunks said before turning his attention back to Ruby. In a blur of movemnent he head-butted her away from him and out of the clearing where she fell to the ground unconcious. He then turned toward Onyx and kicked him in the stomach knocking him out as well. "There, all done." Trunks said brushing off his hands. "But these guys were even easier to beat than you Goten. Oh well, we'll get some real fun soon." he said laying the four Dragonballs they had down with the other three.

"So, now what?" Goten asked.

Trunks grinned and stepped back from the balls. "Alright, Eternal Dragon, arise!" he called out.

"Huh?" Videl wondered looking around as the sky darkened. "Hey Gohan, what's going..." she stopped as a flash of gold came in the near distance and then a stream of gold energy surged into the sky. "Is that the Dragon!"

Gohan nodded. "Ya, I guess the boys are summoning him for something..." he shook his head. "They're going to be in a lot of trouble when the oth..."

Gohan was cut off by the booming of Shenron's voice. "Speak your wish and it shall be so granted." There was a moment of silence and then the Dragon's eyes flashed as Gohan and Videl landed in the clearing. "It has been granted." Gohan's eyes widened as the clearing filled with food. "Now, what is your second wish?"

"Yay! It worked Trunks!" Goten cheered. "Now, make the next wish!"

"Alright. Shenron, we want to have some fun! Get us some excitment!" Trunks called up.

The Dragon growled as it's body stretched and flowed, his eyes glowing brightly. It was obvious to Gohan that the Dragon was having some trouble with the wish. He wasn't sure that he liked that. "This can't be a good thing..." he said glancing over to Videl who nodded. A second later the world went black.

Capsule Corp:

Goku and Piccolo appeared outside the Capsule Corp. compound before Gohan and Videl had even taken off from the lookout. Bulma and Chi-Chi were outside calling for the boys. "They aren't here." Goku called over to the women. "Gohan saw them from the lookout and went to talk to them."

"Oh, those two boys!" Bulma fumed. "They made a mess of one of my labs earlier! When they get back here..."

"Um, Bulma...." Goku started interupting her before she started her tirade.

"Yes Goku?"

Goku scratched the back of his head. "Well, is that Capsule Ship finished yet? The one I asked about a few months ago?"

"Oh, yeah, dad finished up with it yesterday. Why?"

The Saiya-jin grinned. "Well, it's a bit complicated, and I know Vegeta's going to want to hear too. But, um, how long would it take to travel from here to the South Galaxy?"

"The... South Galaxy?" Bulma asked confused. "Well... depends where in the South Galaxy. It could take anywhere from six to eight months... why?"
