Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Alternate Universe ❯ Chapter 1 ( Chapter 1 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

@@@@@@ Alternate Universe @@@@@@

This story starts just before the beginning of DBZ. Bulma and her father are working on space technology together. She hasn't seen her friend Goku for 5 years now, and she still has a relationship with Yamcha. Everything is like it should be, except for one thing… Zarbon gets first contact with Earth on accident. What does that mean for earth's destiny?

Disclaimer: dbz not mine.

@ First contact. @

Bulma watched the screen in front of her with eyes like saucers. The screen was a part of a powerfull communicational device, witch was created and perfected by Bulma to keep in touch with the space ship her father was building.

Bulma saw a strange green face on the screen. She zoomed out, and she saw he had green hair witch was neatly hanging down his shoulder in an braid. He had these creepy, yet beautiful eyes, and two very fashionable earrings were hanging from his ears.

He was quite handsome in Bulma's eyes.

"Kona har otkem Simar yon te Dreon Frieza. Goser hyo su!", the alien said in a demanding manner.

"Wh… what??", Bulma stammered. She did not understand him, and she hadn't thought of building in a translation device either. In fact, she hadn't thought of ever meeting an alien, seriously doubting their existence.

She immediately pushed the "record"- button.

The alien snickered, and seemed to be pushing some buttons, but she wasn't sure. It happened outside of the image.

"All right. Let's try again, shall we? Your hail was detected by Simar, Lord Frieza's battle cruiser. State your name and rank!" , the alien said staring at the camera. Luckily, Bulma had thought of installing a camera, so he could see her. He looked her over.

She almost looked like she could be one of his own kind, with the blue hair and eyes. But her skin was too pinkish. Pretty weird.

"I want to know your name first. Are you Freezer?" Bulma asked.

The man frowned. She clearly didn't understand protocol. So she was not part of Frieza's army.

"My name is Zarbon, I'm LORD Frieza's highest ranking officer. Now what the hell did you need us for?"

"Need you? What do you mean?" Bulma asked.

Zarbon was getting a hunch that the stupid earthling had hailed the best ship in the galaxy, on a frequency only used by Lord Frieza's most important allies, all by accident.

"You called out to us for help.", Zarbon said dangerously.

"I did not. You started talking to me all of a sudden, while I was working on my communicator!" Bulma said irritably . She relaxed, and continued: "By the way, handsome, my name is Bulma. I'm a brilliant scientist here on Earth!"

She winked at him, and nonchalantly leaning at her desk. Zarbon got full view of her cleavage, but it didn't faze him.

"Dumbass native. You will be punished for unauthorized use of the Red-Alert frequency, and thereby unnecessarily hailing a top - flagship of Lord Frieza.", Zarbon said angrily.

"WHAT!? I DIDN'T HAIL YOU!! THIS IS SOME MISTAKE!!", Bulma yelled, panicking.

"YOUR mistake. Now be at the coordinates I send you in 3 hours, or have the entire planet face your fate. You will come alone.", Zarbon said, and immediately cut off contact.

The machine beeped a few time, and the coordinates appeared on screen.

"Oh God! I need to call Goku…… And tell dad about this! He'll be so excited!!", she said as she ran out of the lab.

---------------------- 2,5 hours later…..---------------------

"BUT DAAAAD!! I HAVE TO GO! We have finally made first contact!! Think of all the advanced technology they must have! We'll learn loads about space travel , and probably healing technology too! They… they could have a cure for cancer! Or A.I.D.S.!!"

Dr. Briefs quickly ran a finger along his moustache to smoothen it, but it was just a tic.

"I know, but they are hostile! They want to harm you, they even threatened to harm Earth! I can't let you go out to meet them! Have you lost it!?"

"Yeah, Bulma. I think it's better for you if you just stay here, and let me and the rest of the gang handle this. I don't want you to get hurt.", Goku said. She called him up an hour ago, saying aliens where going to land. He thought it was just some prank, but he came over anyway. It had been almost 5 years since he'd seen her. He'd brought his son too, thinking it was some surprise party. Bulma showed him and her father the recordings she had made.

"But I… I want to go! I NEED TO GO! Goku, you'll protect me, right!? Come on, dad!", Bulma said desperately.

"I might not be able to protect you if they start a fight. Besides, I'd like you to take care of something else for me…Gohan?", Goku said, taking Gohan of his shoulder and putting him on the ground next to Bulma.

"I need you to collect the dragon balls and keep them near in case anything goes wrong."

"What? That's going to take all day! You don't have that much time!" Bulma said angrily.

"No it won't. I already collected three and brought them over to Roshi's. With the one on Gohan's cap you'll only have to collect 3! You'll have Gohan here to help you, and I'll send Yamcha over too. I gotta get going now. BYE!", he said, running outside, and jumping onto his cloud he sped off.

Little Gohan looked up to Bulma and asked: "What are dragon balls, miss Bulma?"

"Uch. Never mind little guy.", she grumbled.

Dissapointed, Gohan looked at the ground and started wiggling around. Finally, he ran to her father, who was fixing up one of his machines, ad asked every question he could think of. Dr. Briefs didn't mind. He loved bragging about his machines, and he didn't get the chance very often.

Bulma thought of something just then. If she didn't show up, it would just provoke the green weirdo, and he and his other aliens could attack Goku and her other friends. This situation had nothing to do with them, and they would bring themselves in danger.

"Bulma? Aren't you going to get the dragon radar? Yamcha could be here shortly.", Dr. Briefs finally said.

Right then she made up her mind.

"Okay, dad. But would you look after Gohan for me? I don't think taking the little guy with us is very safe…", she asked her father. Her pouty face was on. Something was up…

"Sure… don't play any pranks here, Bulma! I was serious about you not going with them! Promise me you won't go after them!"

Bulma faked another pout. "……Hmm okay dad. Geez.", she said disappointed. Dr. Briefs didn't see her crossed fingers…

She ran to her lab, leaving Dr. briefs with Gohan whom immediately started firing questions at him again.

Without much effort Bulma climbed out of her lab's window, and landed outside without making too much noise. As fast as she could, she picked one of her dino-caps, pushed a button and threw it on the grass.

*** Mom won't like this at all, me driving around in her perfectly maintained lawn. But I need to get out of here before being seen.***

The capsule popped open, and out came her favourite hover car / copter. Ik was red, decorated with black flames. She didn't really like the outside, but the thing could go up to 350 km/hr, on land and in air about 500. Just what she needed to get at the coordinates that Zarbon-guy gave her.

As she took of into the air, her father came running out, and yelled something. She couldn't hear him because of the noise.

"Don't worry, dad! I'll explain everything to that alien, he'll be happy, I trade some technology, and we'll be stinkin' rich!!! Well….. stinkier rich…hahhaah!!", she said, more to herself than to her dad, who wasn't even visible anymore.

Was that a smart move? HELL NO! Wanna know what happens next?

Review!

Thankzz.
