Dragon Ball F: 2012-12-30

    4 months after the epic battle between Khitan and Vegeta, Khitan's friendship with the other younglings drifted apart all so sudden. Since that day, Bra hasn't talked to him, nor her dad, while Pan and the others supported her all the way, even if it meant not seeing Khitan anymore. Trunks didn't have the guts to get involved all too much into Khitan's personal life, so he decided not to tell anyone about Khitan's evil alter ego, not even Khitan himself. He told Khitan that Bra was having a tough time with her dad and needed some time alone. Khitan mentioned that for some reason he couldn't remember his fight with Vegeta from halfway through, so Trunks also told him about the part where Khitan and Vegeta got carried away with the fight and accidentally almost blew Trunks and the others up. However, Trunks assured Khitan that Bra wasn't angry with him because of that. Nonetheless, Khitan was very confused about all the information he just received, but decided to give Bra all the time she needed. Trunks felt that he told everything Khitan needed to hear for now, and he had a good feeling that Khitan and Bra will sort things out soon and get back together. The good news was that Vegeta also assured Trunks that he managed to have a serious talk with Khitan's evil alter ego and convinced the alter to never ever dare try to hurt the prince's family, otherwise, he would be killed. Marron got pretty left out from all of this, so she was the only person Khitan could really talk to. They became such close friends, that Khitan became the first official person to find out about Marron's secret relationship with Uub.

   Goku and Chi-Chi were still traveling around the world, while Bulma and Vegeta also kept spending time together, Bulma struggling hard to keep her husband away from boredom. Meanwhile, Nappa arrived at his destination and also found the person he was looking for. Now they were both heading towards Earth, Nappa wanting badly to mess with Vegeta's emotions. Raditz, however, still hasn't found his place in this world, so he kept wandering from planet to planet.

    The one year was up and the stars on the Dragon Balls turned back into red again, meaning they have been reactivated. Master Roshi gathered both the small and big balls and summoned Shenron and Porunga right after another. He wished for his immortality to be taken away and for his youth to be restored. To everyone's astonishment, he looked once again just like in the old pictures: with many black hair and black eyebrows, becoming younger than his pupils. Maron was ever happy to have finally met a man who truly loved her, or at least that's what she thought about him. She immediately took Roshi to meet her parents, where the once great master of martial arts, behaved as normally he could and showed manners he long forgot of, in order not to embarrass his first ever girlfriend. Maron's parents immediately accepted Roshi as their son-in-law, and the preparations for the wedding were already in motion. Master Roshi could still not believe all the things he had to go through just to get in bed with one of world's sexiest woman, although he did start to feel some affections towards her.

    It was now late March; the first school semester was over and all the students and teachers received two weeks of vacation. Pan, Bra and Xevo, were all the Briefs home, sitting around in the living room with a bored face.

-Man, I can't believe I actually miss going to school for once!-Pan started-Things got so boring around here, especially since Khitan is gone...-suddenly, she swallowed hard, then she slowly looked towards Bra-Sorry, Bra...it...it just came out...
-It's ok; no worries.-Bra responded a bit sadly-But you're right. Things really did get boring around here; there's nothing interesting going on anymore. In times like this, I just wish a strong enemy would emerge out of nowhere, however, weak enough for us be able to defeat him. I mean, isn't that why we've been training for, to save the day and become heroes? How are we supposed to do that with no enemies around?
-Yeah well, I'm sick and tired to wait for them to pop up for themselves. I say, we go out in the world and personally search for them!-then Pan stood up from the couch-That Megasaiyan creep did say that Evil is still spreading across the Earth, even as we speak.
-I'm pretty sure Uub and Buu can take care of whatever is out there and don't need our help.-Xevo added-Besides, your grandpa Goku is also traveling around the world...
-Nonetheless, Earth is still a very big planet, and they can't possibly check every corner of it, and that's where we come in.
-I have a better proposition.-Xevo said proudly-Let's have a contest!
-What do you have in mind, Xevo?-Bra asked wondered.
-All 14 Dragon Balls have been scattered across the globe, right? So, the person who gathers most Dragon Balls wins and next year will be allowed to make a wish. Well, the contest is not about the wish itself, it's showing who's the best, and also for the fun of it.
-Even though you saved our lives on Planet Gogeta, you're still only human, Xevo.-Pan added-Flying shoes and laser guns aren't everything you know. But nonetheless, I like your idea. But to make things more interesting, lets make this a couples contest. That way, you would have a fair chance of winning, Xevo, being my partner, of course. Trunks could team up with Mizuna, while you Bra, with...-as she turned towards her friend, who made sad eyes again-Oh, for crying-out-loud, just go talk to him! I mean, it was your dad's fault for getting carried away for the first place; really now, he almost killed Khitan. Who knows how messed up he became because of that shock? I say, you go right now and get it over with it! Or these two weeks will be boring as hell.

    However, Bra was speechless. All three of them stayed silent for a while, until Bra slowly took off into the air and flew out through the opened window. She was heading north, towards the mountains, while thinking through the things she would say to Khitan. Upon her arrival, Khitan immediately felt her presence and went outside. Luckily, Khitan was home alone, which made things easier for both of them. They looked into each others eyes and just stood there facing each other in silence for a few minutes. Afterwards, Bra finally broke the silence:

-Khitan...-she started.
-Bra...-Khitan cut in-I don't remember what I did wrong, but will you forgive me?
-Sure.-then they rushed into each others arms and hugged each other for straight ten minutes.

    After that, Bra told Khitan about the Dragon Ball Hunting Couples Contest plan, while Khitan happily agreed to become Bra's partner. Even though this was a couples contest, Khitan made sure not to tell anyone about Uub and Marron. By the time Bra returned with Khitan to the Capsule Corp, Pan and Xevo have already convinced Trunks and Mizuna to also participate in the contest. Trunks was already thinking to take a break from work along with Mizuna, so this was the perfect occasion to do so. They wanted to ask Goten to also join in with Mia, however, they broke up not so long ago because of a stupid fight, so Goten was once again single. The three couples took each other a dragon radar and took off in three different directions.

    And so, the great Dragon Ball hunting begins. What adventures await our couples and which couple will win the contest? Find out on the following exciting episodes of Dragon Ball F!
