Dragonball With A Different Twist-- Meet the Ox King
By SSBra
"Oolong, how is that Yamcha and Puar seemed to know you?" Bulma asked.
"Well, Puar and I go back a long way."
"You and that silly little cat know one another?" Rina asked.
"Yes. We were both in Shape-Shifter school. I flunked out for cheating."
"That figures!!" Bulma exclaimed as she looked out the window. 'Yamcha,' her mind thought. 'Why did you have to kidnap my little sister. Now am I really confused about you.' Little did Bulma know that Yamcha and Puar were hot on their trail.
"Yamcha!!! Slow down!!!" Puar yelled as she hung onto the back of Yamcha's gi.
"I've gotta catch up with them!!! I'll show that monkey boy and that little, smart-mouthed girl who's boss!!!" 'Bulma, I'm sorry that I took the little girl. I just wish I could tell you that-- face-to-face."
The van pulled up to Fire Mountain, and the Dragonball gang got out. "This is Fire Mountain?" Goku asked.
"Yeah, but it's not supposed to be burning like this," Oolong grabbed his hanky and wiped the sweat from his head.
"I wonder what's going on here?" Bulma asked as she looked at the Dragon Bleeper. "It's here!!! The Dragonball is here!!" She squealed as she took off.
"Well, let's go!!!" Oolong said dragging Rina and Goku along with him after Bulma.
"Gosh, it's hot!!!" Goku said.
"Yeah, I knew Fire Mountain was supposed to be hot, but I had no idea it was this hot!!!" Rina exclaimed.
"Something's wrong here," Oolong said as they caught up to Bulma.
"What do you mean?" Bulma asked as the Dragon Bleeper said that the Dragonball was over in a burning heap.
"It's not supposed to be this hot here. Something is off here," Oolong said as he sweated.
"Maybe someone turned up the heat," Rina laughed.
"Very funny, Rina. Do you have any other funny things to say? Cause the Dragonball is over there in that burning blaze!!!"
"Listen, you're the one who wants a boyfriend. I'm just along for the ride."
"Rina! Can't you do anything but annoy me?!"
"Seems like that's what I do best!"
"I should send you home right now!!!"
"Oh, so I can tell Tousan and Kassan how you let me get kidnapped by a bandit you're lovesick over?"
Bulma gulped and thought about what she'd get if Rina did that.
"Uh, Rina, you wouldn't tell Kassan and Tousan about that, would you?"
"I would if you sent me home. Goku's gotta teach me more of that karate stuff!"
"Yeah, and Bulma, Rina's my friend. Who would I have to talk to?"
"She can stay, but I've gotta have a little help here."
"Bulma, I'm good, but I can't walk through fire!"
Steam came pouring out of Bulma's ears. She gritted her and teeth and said as calmly as she could,
"I know you can't walk through fire, but do you think you could put it out?"
"I'll try," Rina said as she walked up to the wall of fire and shot energy at it. The blast seemed to calm the blaze a bit, but didn't come anywhere near putting it out.
"Wow, Rina!!! You're awesome!!!" Goku exclaimed. He was certainly impressed by her and her powers. He wished that he could do that.
"Rina, you didn't even put a dent in it!!" Bulma complained.
"Okay, let's see you do better!!!"
"Girls, please, we've gotta find a way to get that Dragonball," Oolong said.
"You'll never get it now," a voice boomed.
"Wh-who was THAT?" Bulma quivered.
"I don't know," Rina said as she looked around. Goku brought out his power pole and stood in front of Rina and Bulma.
"That was the Ox King!!!" Oolong exclaimed.
"You mean the guy who eats people?" Goku asked.
"Yes, that one," a large figure stepped into the light.
"You're the Ox King?" Rina asked.
"Yes, little one, I am. I thought you were my daughter when I first saw you but when I saw your remarkable powers, I knew you couldn't be her. So, it is a Dragonball you are seeking?"
"Yes," Bulma said nervously.
"If you can put this fire out, you can have it."
"Put this fire out? What does he think we are? South City's Volunteer Fire Department?!" Oolong said.
"There's only one person who could put this fire out, my old master," the Ox King said sadly.
"Your old master?" Bulma asked.
"Yes, Master Roshi."
"Master Roshi?" Goku asked.
"Yes, he was my sensei. He taught me everything about martial arts."
"Oh, really?" Rina asked as a plan began to brew in her brain. 'If Goku and I could find this Master Roshi, he could teach us more of that karate stuff.'
"Yeah, and what's worse, is that I sent my daughter, Chi-Chi out to find him. and she's not returned. I'm worried sick."
"Don't worry about that Mr. Ox King, we'll find this Master Roshi and your daughter Chi-Chi for you," Goku smiled.
"We will?" Bulma and Oolong asked.
"Yeah," Goku and Rina answered.
"What does your daughter look like?" Oolong asked drooling.
"For crying out loud!!! And where do we find this Master Roshi?"
"My little Chi-Chi has black hair and is wearing a princess warrior's armor. Master Roshi can be found on an island southwest of here," the Ox-King explained.
"Got it!!" Rina exclaimed as she grabbed Goku by the shoulders and flew them both high into the sky.
"Rina!!! Come back here!!" Bulma shouted up to her.
