30 minutes later,
"WHOAAAAAA, THE OCEAN !" Exclaimed the two passengers on my back.
'Finally the ocean !' After 30 minutes of flight with kids who won't stop screaming, it's good to know that I'll arrive soon.
"Hold on really tight I'm going to go faster from now on." I warned.
"Faster than this, wait a- SECOND !" Videl said as the wind blew on the face of those two.
...
*Fwoosh*
"Why did you suddenly stop ?"Asked the passengers together.
"Open your eyes and look straight ahead." I responded as I made my way down to Kame House.
'Wow, it really is Kame House, I had already come here on multiple occasions but it's the first since the merge.'
In front of Gohan was the Kame house, a 2-floor house in wood painted in pink. It had the letters KAME HOUSE marked on it, it was pink but blended really well with this tiny island and the Saturated light blue of the ocean.
"Is this the place ?" Asked Erasa.
"Yeah, We're here, now get down." The girls then jumped off me and I regained a normal posture and landed on the ground of the island. The windows were open and it seems there was no one on the Ground floor.
"Wow, it looks really cozy, are you sure it's here ? Maybe did you get the wrong place ?" Erasa noted.
"No it's here, I came here with my dad when I was a kid." I replied.
"But you're still a kid ?" Videl added.
"Ugh, of course it means I was more of a kid than now." Gohan complained.
"But it seems they are no here, could they have abandoned the house ?" Videl asked.
"No, I don't think so, I will just call for him, and don't forget it's still early in the morning." Gohan added.
"You do have a point." Videl nodded.
I approche to the entrance and knocked a few times "Hello, is there anyone ?... HELLO ?"
Finally someone responded, "I'm coming, wait a few seconds." a very feminine voice replied.
Then she opened the door, it was a blue haired woman with a green top, yellow shorts, and an apron attached, who opened the door, "Good morning, can I help you ?" she asked , her face smiling.
"Is your master a woman ? " Erasa asked. Of course I ignored that and focused on the person in front of me who seemed to be Launch. Gohan, as in me never met her but she was a character who appeared in the beginning of og Dragon ball.
"Don't ask stupid questions, just introduce yourselves." I retorded.
"No need to be so agressive, My name is Erasa, I'm a friend of Gohan, I just followed him here on a whim, te he."
"My name is Videl, I too am a friend of Gohan and came here to train."
"My name is Son Gohan and those two are...my friends ? Anyway, I am here to train under Master Roshi. I am the son of Son Goku" I introduced myself.
"Goku's son, my, aren't you a cutie ! And your friends seem lovely." Launch said cheerfully, "I am launch, master is asleep, you can wait inside until I wake him up."
"Yes, thank you very much." The three of us said.
We sat in the living room while waiting for Master Roshi to come down. Erasa and Videl sat pretty close to but I paid it no mind.
From upstairs we started hearing some voices. "Who, Goku's son ? Ok, I'm coming." An old decrepit voice was heard.
The old master came down and I thought it was rude to stay down while the master was coming so we stood up.
"Is it you Gohan ? You have grown since we last saw each other. And those girls behind you must be your friends. I am not so dumb not to guess why you've come here, but I shall ask, do you need something ?" MR said.
"Yes, Master I've been well, those are indeed my friends, I came to train under you, I want to stop those androids, Please master Train us !"
"Well, I have no problem training but those two behind you, are they ready for something like this ?"
"Don't worry master, they won't train to fight the androids, they want to train to be able to protect themselves."
"Then it's okay, we shall start immediately."
"Thank you master." we replied as we bowed to show respect.
...
Master first gave something to do for the girls, they started doing some basic exercises. As for me, I wasn't given anything for now.
"Now Gohan, your body is quite well trained and you are already much more physically stronger than me, why do you want to train under me ?" MR asked with a curious gaze.
"Master is right, but I have not been taught the basics of martial arts, I was just a brawler, fighting only on instincts, I want to master martial arts and all of your techniques !" I said with assurance and determination all over my expression.
"Martial arts, heh..., very well." Master Roshi headed inside and came back with what seemed to be a turtle shell size XL. "This is the third heaviest I have, even I cannot bear such weight, come and wear it."
I tried wearing it "Master, this is quite heavy." It was really heavy but nothing too unbearable.
Master took off his own turtle shell.
"We shall start with the basics of the basics, follow my movements !"
....
A few hours later, night.
"Well let's stop here for today. I'm tired. Go take a shower then come down to eat dinner. There should be a shower near the second bedroom. " Master Rosh said.
"Phew..." I let myself fall on the floor as I was very tired. From an outside perspective it might have not been difficult but everytime my movement was off, master noticed it and we had to start all over, plus it was tiring having to focus my attention on his movements and at the same time not failing what I reproduced. The girls were down since a while and had already the permission to stop.
I made my way to the second floor and washed.
