Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bubbles

Bubbles lifted to the sky leaving the Ansatsuken Dojo, he flew back to where he was before he went there, he thought about how he could have stopped his friend from dieing, but he seemed to want it. He was probably in Other World training with a Kai, but which one, maybe North Kai, he was just as interested as Bubbles in the heroes of earth, and most of which trained with the North Kai. He shook his head and thought about what the man had said. He said that the Red Ribbon Army would conduct test on those strange worms, what were they thinking those things had to be dangerous. What if they made it bigger or stronger, that would be a complete disaster, they would be forced to put even more lives in danger, they would cause more people go through the pain of that sickness... The pain was the worst part for him, he felt as if he were dieing slowly and stuck, he was an open target being destroyed by a dead creature through his energy, he could not attack, let alone move, how did anything have that power, where did it come from, where there more, if so how many, was that one a weak one and the others were much stronger, more importantly was it the first of many? These questions really bothered him he wanted to know the answers but could not find the answers, he did not know where to start.

He shook his head clearing his thoughts as he saw the city approaching him, he landed on the outskirts where he would walk from, he needed the exercise and if he flew he could draw attention to himself, he still felt a bit of pain even though he knew the virus was gone, but you could not be too careful, he had not fully recovered either, he would be at a disadvantage. He was ready to rest, he did not want to fight for a while and that meant being a Majin was good because there body never lost power or muscle from not using it. He started his walk into the city looking around and saw the people who were not really worried about what happened, he felt kind of irritated that even though some had the powers to help fight the worm, they did not. Another thing that bothered him was that most of them were evil and could not care less what happened to the regular people. He fought constantly to keep his city safe bout it was always wasted on the people who wanted it to be theirs, that was another thing he thought about, one day, this city would be his, he would become the King of the Majins, as well as the King of Satan City.

He continued this thought as he walked through the city, the city was huge and his house was in the south west part of the town, he landed in the north so he had some time to go until he arrived at his home which he hoped had not been robbed in the time he was gone, this however was less common in the part of the town he lived, this is why he lived there. In the occasion that someone did break in they would be instantly turned into a statue of chocolate or what ever else Bubbles felt like eating. He had to do it several times, he did not like killing but some times it was necessary. Some people had to be put in their place and shown that they could not do everything they pleased, that there were rules, that there have always been rules and that they have not changed much since the city was founded. Being named off of a lie that most people knew was a lie people expected that they could lie, cheat, and steal all that they felt like which was absolutely not the case. He took it into his hands to stop the crime that the cops could not handle, most only using battle armor and arm cannons, they could not actually fight with Ki but their targets could. This was a bad problem because some were stronger than Bubbles and he had to resort to tricks like sneaking behind them and zapping them with a Chocolate Beam. He found a corner store and walked inside, he had a little bit of cash on him, that of which he had not left at home. He made his way into the store and found exactly what he would expect but wished he hadn't found.

A demon was grabbing a store clerk by the shirt collar and Bubbles rolled his eyes as the low ranking demon turned and threatened Bubbles, "Yo, you, what do you think this is, get out of here before I bust a cap." The demon turned fully with the clerk still in hand and revealed a gun in the other, this signified the demon was weaker than Bubbles had thought, when he has to use a gun to attack. Bubbles just shook his head, he kept walking over to the back where the drinks were located and he grabbed a soda, he walked back up to the front where he sat the soda on the counter then looked to the demon, "I would appreciate it if you set him down, I really need to buy this, you would not believe the day I am having, you probably understand. Well you probably don't being the weakling that you are." Bubbles said as the demon growled getting ready to make a comeback which Bubbles knew was probably going to be weak and not worth the time the demon spent making it up. "Oh yeah, well, uh, well... Forget it man you're dead!" The demon shot the pistol which was really a laser pistol, the laser went straight through Bubbles' head which irritated him. He turned around and stared at him as the demon laughed not noticing it did not effect Bubbles. Bubbles did a quick spin, as he was in mid spin a hole opened in his hand and a sword flew out, the gripped the sword as he came around finishing the three-sixty. He sliced into the side of the demon and pulled back half way through the cut. He lunged the sword quickly seven time piercing the demon's chest and stomach. He stabbed the sword into the demon's arm which gripped the clerk and made him lose his grip. As he dropped the clerk the hole in his head sealed with his healing power. The demon fell to the ground while Bubbles pulled the sword back into his body. He pointed his finger out as the Clerk scurried away from the fallen demon. Bubbles said something to the demon, "you... You're not even worth eating!" Bubbles fired a Chocolate Beam, the demon started to glow and faded into the air. Bubbles transformed his body into oxygen. He did not usually do this but he was irritated today. The clerk pulled himself up and dusted himself off, "sir, I can not thank you enough, he was going to kill me for not having enough in the register, it is a slow day. Here just take the soda, and anything else you want for free, I am in your debt if you ever need anything tell me."
Bubbles shook his head at the offer, "no, the soda only... That is all I want, and the guy deserved it, unlike most people believe, some people need to die, it just happens that 60% of this city are those people and it makes me sick, ending their reign one at a time is pleasure and payment enough. Now if you would please, scan this for me so I can pay you, like you said it is a slow day, and I am sure you need the money more than me, I can make my food when I please, you have to buy yours." Bubbles said and the clerk nodded wanting to say something but he saw that Bubbles was completely serious about this. He still felt wrong about not repaying the man who saved his life but he got up and went to the other side of the counter scanned the item and said, "That will be one fifty..." Bubbles nodded handing the change in his pocket to the guy and grabbing the soda, he walked out opening its top and taking a sip.

He walked one his way to the main street of the city and shook his head as he saw people being pulled over and cops having to arrest countless people. He arrived at the main street and things were way calmer, the cops patrolled this part of the town more than any other, which was a bad strategy but still at least part of the city was safe. He thought about running because he wanted to get home already but the cops would probably think he stole something and is trying to get away. He was still unsure about flying though it still was not a good idea, the sky was where very little crime happened but when you were up there you were an open target. He stuck to walking, he liked being on this street, everyone was so happy, they did not have to worry about being robbed, they could freely move around the city, it was quite beautiful, that not all of the city was bad. He should not act like the rest of the city is that bad though, it is where he grew up, and the people are not bad, well they are, just bad because of how they were taught, they were misguided. They think about how cool it is to do what you want, take what you need, break what you don't like, and kill those who disagree. It was a very ignorant way of thinking but several people thought of life in this city that way. Criminals move here all the time because of that. He wished he could force them out, but he could not, not yet. He had the idea that he could become king in his head, which he knew he could, he could beat those who he wanted to, it was not impossible, especially with the development of the Karma Transformation which grew as he did. He enjoyed the power it gave him, he enjoyed that the power he needed came to him as he needed, his body could posses an enormous amount of power just by changing a small amount.

He made his way to the center of the city, it took him a while but he was finally there, he did not have much longer to go and he was actually feeling great. He took the last sip from his soda and walked to the corner where he tosses the bottle in a public trashcan. He turned there, he was heading west and then south. He did not have any problems here however, this part of the city was known for having strong people who did not tolerate crime. He waved to a few people that were friends of his parents and that he met when he was younger, they were nice people and some of them were strong, they even offered to train with Bubbles, though they were extremely strong and out matched him. He arrived at his next turn which would lead to his house. He stopped at the side walk and waited for some people in cars to pass by then he walked across seeing an old friend of his, he shook his hand said his greeting and moved on, he did not really talk to them much as he had been training for a long time. He walked a little further and made it to his house. To his expectations, his house was looking fine, the neighbors were outside and one said something, "hey man! Some one tried to get into your house, don't worry though we protected it, he was weak one Ki Blast to the back and he was out for the count, he should know not to mess with this neighborhood." The man said as he watered his hedges. Bubbles laughed back and waved, "thank you, I had a rough couple of days, y'know."
"Well, how about you come over later tonight and have dinner with me, my wife, and my son. You can tell us about it, my son loves the stories you have told him about your training and adventures," the man said.
"Sounds wonderful, about what time?" Bubbles responded.
"Around seven, is that Saiyan friend of yours going to come over? He can join us." He said.
"No, Jason, things came up and he can not be here right now." Bubbles said entering the house as the neighbor waved bye. He entered his house and it looked as it did when he left, it was clean, for the most part, and did not smell bad which was good for Bubbles, he did not like coming home to have to clean up a mess made by some intruder but Jason, he neighbor, seemed to handle things. He was a good guy and looked out for Bubbles, gave him money when he needed it, which was hardly ever, kept the neighborhood looking nice, invited Bubbles over to dinner, his wife was nice, his son loved to hear stories and wanted to be like Bubbles when he got older. He liked his neighbors and neighborhood, he lived there since he was 6 but lived alone starting a couple months ago when he stopped living with his parents, who decided to go exploring since they did not like fighting as much as their son did. They still have a house towards the end of the street, Bubbles watched the house constantly as did the people who lived next door, it was very important to him that the house was safe, it held a lot of memories. He sat down on the couch and then moved his legs up to the other side. He pulled the T.V. remote from under it and turned on the T.V. flipping through the channels, this was when he caught something, he noticed a commercial, no wait, it was a news broadcast, from the Red Ribbon Army, and it looked like the man who said that he was testing the worms, this had to be about that. It was so surprising, these worms were said to give you new abilities. He had to learn more of this then saw the price of the worms and was shocked, but he could not let this get in the way. He had to get the worms, it would possibly help him. He knew it had to be done, he knew that this could open new doors for him.
Later that night he got dressed in something other than his training gear and battle armor. He walked outside and over to his neighbors house and knocked on the door. The door opened and a woman, early thirties, light brown hair, skinny, and blue eyes, "Oh well Bubbles, my husband told me you were coming over, please come inside, my son couldn't wait to hear about your newest story." She said and signaled her hands in the position which meant 'come on in' Bubbles waved at her and walked inside, "this story is one of my best, I had a terrible time experiencing it though," he laughed and she felt a little bit confused. Bubbles saw the couples son, he had light brown hair like his mother, he was 8, skinny with small muscles, and hazel eyes. He ran up to Bubbles, "whoa, your back from your last adventure! That is so cool! What happened!" He shouted in excitement. Bubbles patted his head and knelled down, "I will tell you when we eat dinner Joey, it is great though." He said standing back up and saw Jason, the father walk in, his hair was blonde, muscular, hazel eyes which is where his son got it from, and he was in his early thirties like his wife but a bit older. "Bubbles! Nice to see you again, here dinner is set in the kitchen, lets go eat, I am sure you are hungry." He said
Bubbles nodded, "I am, I don't remember the last time I ate a home cooked meal." All of the family and Bubbles walked into the kitchen, Bubbles sat at the 'foot' of the table and Jason sat at the 'head', Joey and Dania, the wife, sat at the sides of the table opposite of each other. Everyone started eating, soup with potatoes, beef, corn, and carrots, along with the soup there were rolls and pork chops. They all ate talking about their days until they were finished and then they looked to Bubbles all anticipating his story. "Alright, I guess I can fill you in on the past few days." Bubbles laughed.

"Well me and Coraata met up in the skies after seeing a news report about a meteor heading t'wards earth, this was interesting, we had to see what was going on. Well we get to the location, the Ansatsuken Dojo, and the meteor is close, it lands kind of far away. Next thing we know there was this giant worm coming from it, it fired blasts at the other people, I looked at them, I noticed the guy I fought in the tournament, he was focused on fighting like me and Coraata. The worm made the civilians into zombies..." Bubbles was interrupted.
"Zombies no way!" Joey yelled.
"Yeah," Bubbles laughed, "they were zombies, they also wanted all of the people fighting for earth dead. The charged at us, I teleported around, I turned one to chocolate, I sliced another one. Coraata attacked some, I then tried to fry them all with a giant Ki fire, this failed, their bodies were fire resistant. I got scared, though Coraata didn't he created several KGAs..." He was stopped again.
"I am sorry Bubbles, but what is a KGA," Dania asked.
"It is a Kamikaze Ghost Attack, ghost clones which explode when something touches them. But anyways, he creates six of them expecting the zombies, which were extremely fast, to touch them and explode, that is when they all explode one their own, I did not know what happened at the time but it was bad. After then we looked to the worm, Coraata and the KGAs charged the worm, though Ki attacks did not hurt him because of a shield, we knew this but Coraata was strong and brave and stupid so he attempted it..." He paused, "well I shouldn't call a dead person stupid." The family just looked around.
"C-C-Coraata is dead..." Joey said.
"I am afraid so, he will be back though, I assume he wanted to see if it would work, but also he wanted to train with the Kais, they are people who live in the Other World who train people who save the world, die for the world, or save lives. I charged the worm with my sword, and the others figured out about the Ki shield, we all worked together and killed the beast, now, now we knew what those zombies exploded for, we inhaled worms that stopped our Ki flow. This was extremely painful and we all fell in pain, I passed out, I could not keep my self awake, it was too hard, though after I awoke, a member of the Red Ribbon Army was standing in front of all the infected fighters, he told us we were healed and that he would test the worms, this made me mad, it could have been dangerous, but from what I have heard, it is not bad and they turned them into a weapon that helps fighters, I want to get one, and that is what I am going to do now, or what I hope to do." Bubbles finished the story as Dania clapped.
"Well Bubbles, I am sorry about Coraata, though it seems like he died for a good reason," Jason said.
"Whoa, you are so awesome and will we ever get to see Coraata again?" Joey asked.
"Yes, Joey, I think he can come back, someday, maybe soon." Bubbles laughed.
"Well I will get desert and that is an amazing adventure, than you for helping save the planet, even at the cost of your friend," Dania said.
"Oh, like I said, it is nothing to worry about, it was his choice and he could come back." Bubbles said. Dania walked back in with a plate of cake and four smaller plates, she sat it down in the center of the table and cut everyone a cake. They ate the cake having small chatter, Jason then looked up to Bubbles, "Bubbles, tell me what do you plan on doing next?" Jason asked.
"Well," Bubbles thought about his walk home, "I am going to work on fixing this city."
"Fixing the city, what do you mean?" Dania asked.
"The city is corrupt there is too much crime, when I get that worm, I am going to rid this city of its evil and crime." Bubbles said.
"What made you come to that conclusion?" Jason said.
"I was walking home from the north today, I stopped at a store to get something to drink, the clerk was being robbed, he did nothing to deserve this, I stopped the criminal, he was not worth the air he breathed, so I made him equal to it, I turned him into oxygen. It sounds wrong but it had to be done. The clerk wanted to give me a lot of free stuff to pay me back, he had said it was a slow day, and did not even meet the criminals expectations, I could not take anything from him, I declined but I did tell him, 'The guy deserved it, unlike most people believe, some people need to die, it just happens that 60% of this city are those people and it makes me sick, ending their reign one at a time is pleasure and payment enough.' I still believe that, I want to change things, when I am done, 99.9 percent of the people in this city will do only what they are supposed to do, they will not break the laws, they will be more respectful, like the people of this neighborhood." Bubbles finished.
"Bubbles, you have a great objective." Jason said.
"You are going to help a lot of people," Dania said.
"You are going to stop all of the bad people!" Joey yelled in excitement.
"Thanks you guys, it will be hard, but I want my children, no, I want all generations past this one to be in a crime free city, I want Joey's kids, grandkids, great grandkids, and beyond to be able to go on walks without the risk of being robbed." He sighed.
"You have a true cause, though I am curious, how do you plan on accomplishing this alone?" Dania said.
"I plan... I plan on becoming the King of Satan City." Bubbles said and the families eyes widened, "it sounds crazy but I know it is worth it, I know I can do it."
"I think you can do it." Joey said.
"Well thanks Joey, I hope I can." Bubbles said.
"I know you can Bubbles." Dania said.
"Bubbles, you can do it if you believe, I know that sounds corny but you still have along way to go, if you train hard, you will make it, you will succeed, I want you to come to your goal." Jason said clapping.
"Sir, I will take your words and use them for inspiration." Bubbles said in respect. He got up after they all finished eating and waved bye, they all waved by and Joey jumped up excitedly. Bubbles walked back to his house where he put his training clothes back on, it was time to get to work.

Majin Bubbles walked into his backyard and dragged some equipment out with him, he brought some weights mostly, everything else he needed was in the back. His grass was green and well taken care of, he could tell that Jason had done some work on it, which is fine, he lets Joey and Jason come over and train all the time, there was a gate connecting their fences, they even had keys to one another's house. You had to trust your neighbors, it was important to get to know them. He dropped down into push up position and quickly pushed himself up and down, he got to a point where he just used one hand, he then switched hands, he flung his antenna up and used it for push-ups it was strange but it was good to do. He then rolled over and started to do crunches. He had to prepare he did not need to fall behind those around him, that was of course a bad idea, he would never reach the rank of king if he did, there were already people way stronger than him, in this city as well even when he transformed, this did not please him. He worked harder, he made his regiments better, he did them faster, all to make him stronger, this was his plan he could train and train but none of it was worth it if he failed, so while he trained he prepared strategies, he wrote them down with his antenna, Joey went outside and watched Bubbles from the top of the fence, he was interested in seeing exactly what Bubbles does, how he trains, and everything so he could be more like him. He liked the kid, well he liked that someone looked up to him, he looked up to so many people when he grew up, it felt good being a person people can respect. It makes him work harder, one of the many thing he uses to motivate him. He continued that for a couple of minutes, more like ten minutes. He pulled himself up off of the mat he sat in the dirt. There was a punching bag hanging from a pole which Bubbles used next. He punched at it a few times, swung his leg around, he then did a three-sixty kick and repeated a couple of times. He then stopped and gave a few more punches to the bag. He pounded the center of the bag with his knees as he jumped up. He practiced a few combos like left punch, right upper cut, knee to stomach, spin around leg sweep, finally ending with a double palm to the area the chest would be if it were a humanoid.

Joey watched on as his hero, who was really not much older than he was, attacked the training bag. He had no idea what was going on in his head, he did know he wanted to make the city better for his kids and their kids and on and on. He liked that idea because his grandparents were killed because of some criminals killing a lot of people at a bank. This was when he was young, even Bubbles was really young back then. If he wasn't he would have been able to help, but at least he is trying to help now, if what he does works than no one else in the city will die because of people breaking the law, everyone can be happy and no one will ever be hurt, they can always live in peace. And when he becomes bigger, he can help Bubbles protect the city, but by that time Bubbles will be the king of Satan City, at least thats what his father and mother, him, and Bubbles hoped for. But that was a hard goal, lots of people in this town wanted to be the kind.
Bubbles continued to fight the bag but then turned to several wooden humanoid figures. Bubbles flung his arm forward. A sword came rushing out and he took hold of it. He swung around, he hit the board leaving a cut in it. He pulled back out and started to lunge at the wooden figure. He swung around slicing it in the neck. He then rotated the opposite way and sliced the neck completely through. He did it so fast the head just fell back to the neck, though no longer full connected. He pulled the sword back and jabbed into the eye of the wooden figure. He swung around pulling the head off of the figure and swung it into the air. He forced it down into the ground smashing the back of it. He lifted the sword in the air with the point facing down. He started to push down into the wooden head pulling out then pushing it down again stabbing though it. He pulled the sword completely from it and lifted his foot up into the air and stomped on the all ready broken head continually stepping and stomping and completely shattering it.

He placed the sword by his door so he could move on to other forms of training. This new plan he had was stranger than anything he tried before, but he came up with it as a way to increase his speed and several other small abilities. He picked up three tennis ball and threw them at the wall of his house. The first hit and bounced back which as soon as it hit the house wall he threw the second ball, as the first came back and the second hit the wall, the third ball was released, he continued this rapidly not allowing himself to hold the ball and kept his aim perfect so the balls would not get away from him. This was a pretty good idea, or at least he thought so. He continued this for a while until he thought it was enough. He caught one of the balls, then caught another, he tossed one into the air and grabbed the incoming ball. He stuck his antenna straight into the air attempting to balance the ball on the tip of it, this, as he though, failed and the ball just hit the antenna then came falling down hitting Bubbles on the head.

Bubbles

Bubbles reformed near the spot that he was in, and looked around him everything was destroyed, his home, his friends, all of it. He fell to his knees in tears, he then shook his head and laughed a little bit, "I can rebuild this city, the others, the fighters can come back from the other world. I hope at least," he said kind of wanting to blame himself, but what would that do, he knew he was the reason, he should have never got in this things way, maybe the city would still be here. He also wished the Coraata was here, he could have helped, maybe it was all just a dream, his body was now fully reformed and he felt fine, except for a void he felt. He shouted into the air with a growl, his clothes flashed and turned back to its normal form, what was this, why would he do this, he was a Changeling, this was his home most likely, he was cold hearted. He had to be ended, Bubbles had to become stronger first, but he was afraid anything he did would be futile, unless he could get some people to help him, but who would do this. He would find someone.
