Episode 71: Living On

    Two months have passed since the events on Planet Earth 2.0, which changed everyone's life, both the inhabitants' and the visitors'. Unity prevailed once again thus the threat has been destroyed, bringing peace to the planet once and for all. Everyone was finally happy...well, almost everyone. Nappa and Raditz were still pissed off that they couldn't have their revenge against Goku and Vegeta, and not having King Vegeta's support, they left the planet to find some other way of revenge, or a purpose to their lives. King Vegeta and his followers have reunited with old Tomo Oshi and the rest of the Saiyans, making the race whole again, with King Vegeta still as their ruler. But now the king had a lot more minions to rule over as he was not only the king of the Saiyans, but of the entire planet. Keeping things in order on a planet that big with so many different species and races, was harder than he thought, so he chose Bardock second in command to help him out. Of course, he would have chosen his son instead, but Vegeta, who always named himself a prince, had no more desire to rule others, so he returned to Earth, to his family. King Vegeta also started searching for a new soul mate and told everyone that he wanted to have at least one more offspring, whether it was a boy or a girl. Of course, Vegeta was the first one to oppose to his idea, saying that having a baby brother at his age was plain ridiculous. He was already uncomfortable with the idea of having a younger father than him and now this? He started to truly despise those Dragon Balls, however, he had no choice than to accept these weird circumstances, hoping they couldn't get any weirder. Bardock also started dating someone, none other than Fasha. Goku couldn't be more happy for him, however, whenever he asked his father about Goku's mother, Bardock always avoided the subject, saying he would rather not talk about it. Goku then understood that between his parents was never anything special and that it was only a one-night stand, which Bardock wasn't proud of and embarrassed to admit.

    Xaras has finally returned to his family for good this time and lived their lives as happily they could. The leader of the Tsufurukans, gave Trunks the blueprints to the shield generator and many crystals as well, to take back to Earth to protect those environments where the weather was more violent. The rest of the Z Fighters also returned to Earth, taking a visitor with them: Mizuna. She, of course, moved in to the Briefs family, having her own room. She became very close friends with Pan and Bra, and they hang out a lot together, but her main interest was Trunks. On the other hand, Trunks also started liking her more and he even started thinking whether she was the one for him. Mizuna spent a lot of time with him at the Caspule Corporation, and Trunks also liked the fact that she was a quick learner, so he named her his assistant. When Trunks asked her about her family, she told him they both died in a mission, when she was little, sent by one of Frieza's henchmen. She had been raised and taken care of my many Saiyan families, especially by Tomo Oshi, as they all loved her. Mizuna decided to also become a Super Saiyan, so she asked Trunks to train her whenever they had some free time from work.

    High school started once again and our teenager heroes were more than glad for it; after going through such dangerous adventures, studying for a change was a relief. Gohan, however, decided to take a one-year break at the university and went back to Earth 2.0 to study it more. Since his students have graduated, he no more had any guilt of leaving the literature class on someone else's hands. Even though the Great Saiyaman and Saiyagirl were gone for good, two other great heroes replaced them; better yet, three: Uub, Buu and...Bee 2. Mr. Satan also announced that he would retire, but he named those three to take his place in bringing peace not just in Satan City, but in the entire world. By now, Uub was just as powerful as Mystic Gohan and couldn't be more proud of his achievement. But saving the world wasn't all that he's been doing; he secretly had a crush on Marron and often visited her at the fast-food where she still worked. Even though the last time she left her job without saying a word to her boss, he nonetheless forgave her and gave her a second chance. She was very good with the clients; alway cheerful for which they liked her the most, so her boss was rather forced to rehire her.

    Bra and Khitan, however, have been seeing each other very rarely lately; firstly, because of Bra being occupied with her studies and secondly, because Vegeta made Khitan his pupil and was training him real hard for him to become strong enough to be worthy of the prince's daughter. If it weren't for them being classmates, Pan and Xevo would also see each other rarely. When she wasn't studying, Pan was training hard with her grandpa Goku and Piccolo to master her Super Saiyan 2 stage. And speaking of couples, another big wedding occurred, this time between Mia and Yamcha. Plus, they also announced that they will soon have a baby boy.

    Because of them being Saiyans, Goku and Vegeta looked still young compared to their wifes, so Bulma and Chi-Chi bought some magical cream for their skin from Fortuneteller Baba and tried it. To their joy, it actually worked, and once again they looked "even" with their husbands. However, something else worried the two of them, regarding their husbands. After returning from Planet Gogeta, Goku and Vegeta weren't themselves anymore, they seemed distressed and bored. They weren't training anymore like they used to, they were either watching TV or sleeping all day long, as if they hated living anymore. Neither Bulma, nor Chi-Chi dared to ask them what the problem was, even though they already knew the answer.

    Our heroes live on their lives peacefully once again, however, Evil is always around the corner, always hungry for vengeance, destruction and world domination. Secrets are yet to be revealed, many characters from the previous series will recur, many surprises and awkward moments await our heroes in this all new saga of Dragon Ball Finale called "The Dragon Ball Hunting Saga".
