Dragonball--with a Different Twist

I don't own DB, DBZ, or DBGT or the characters. I'm not going to make money off them. 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.
