Dragonball : Super Raditz

Chapter 28: Baba



" So you are telling me nothing happened..? You didn't..? You know..? "

Roshi asked with a weird look on his face. When he had sensed Launch and Raditz in his room this morning, he didn't think he would find them like.. that.

" Hmm? What do you mean..? "

Seeing Raditz giving the exact same lost expression that Goku gave when Roshi asked where Gohan came from, Roshi gave up directly.

" ...You are Goku's brother alright, but Launch, you, why are you blushing??! "

Involuntarily raising his voice at the latter part, Roshi asked with a fiery desire to know, for research purposes!

To the sudden question thrown her way, Launch exclaimed with surprise then covering her face she ran, throwing an excuse to Roshi.

" I'll bring you breakfast..! "

Looking at the running Launch and chilled out Raditz, Roshi frowned, a total mystery..

But Roshi was a master after all, a master of many arts, not only fighting.

" Eeehehe, Raditz, come here for a second.. "

Flinching back slightly Raditz regained his balance, he knew what Roshi wanted to ask.

" No way master Roshi, I am starving, I will go see what Launch is cooking, see ya. "

Narrowing his eyes, Roshi looked at Raditz go into the kitchen and vanish behind Launch.

Sighing after his plan failing, he took out a casette tape from his collection.

" Looks like it's only you and me again. "

Ignoring the weird laughing noises coming from the room behind him, Raditz sat on the kitchen counter and looked at Launch cooking.

" Why- Why did you come Raditz? I can do it myself...! "

The still embarrassed Launch attempted to shoo Raditz away, who wasn't ready to move.

" No way, I want to watch- "

" You, you want to watch me..?! I.. okay.."

Gulping down the rest of his sentence, where he was about to say he wanted to watch the food getting cooked, Raditz stayed silent.

He and Launch got to know a lot about each other last night, and that included the existence of blonde Launch.

And some more stuff that Raditz assumed was the cause of Launch's embarrassment.

" Are you leaving after this..? "

Launch muttered, barely making a sound, after yesterday night she didn't want to separate from Raditz so soon.

Even after she sneezed and blacked out, she was sitting normally after regaining her senses, it was like she hadn't sneezed at all, this has never happened to her before.

Even with her friends here, after she sneezed there were many weird things she didn't understand, like broken buildings, scattered things, but not with Raditz.

" I am sticking around, I train with Master Roshi here. "

Launch smiled involuntarily, if Raditz was here she would feel safe and warm, it would be just like yesterday.

" I see.. "

With that both felt silent, Raditz busy looking at the sizzling meat on the stove, and Launch busy taking peeks at Raditz and smiling.

Launch was glad to have met Raditz, in more than one ways.

Time passed quickly for Launch, and after everyone finished eating, it was time for Raditz and Roshi to train.

Just when they were about to get up after, Raditz called out to Roshi.

" Master, I need a favor. "

Asked Raditz with his hands folded, Launch stopped picking up the dishes and Roshi stopped preparing himself for a fight.

" Huh? What is it? "

Asked Roshi, intrigued at what Raditz wanted to ask, it must be something important if Raditz calls it a favor, and Roshi wasn't disappointed.

" Master, can you arrange a meeting with your sister, I have to ask her something. "

" Eeeh?? "

Roshi exclaimed, he had many things he thought Raditz could ask, but setting up a meeting with his sister wasn't one of them.

" You want to meet her? Well I suppose I can arrange that.. but what is it you need of her? "

Launch was also curious, she didn't know master Roshi had a sister, but weirdly enough, Raditz turned to look at her after this.

" Fortune teller baba is the best magic user I know, I think Launch's condition has something to do with magic, I could sense quite a few intriguing things yesterday. "

" Her changing the way she does, manifesting guns and ammunition, Launch has lantent magic ability, I am sure of it. "

Raising his sunglasses and eyebrows together, Roshi looked at Launch intently, and Launch herself was covering her mouth while looking at Raditz.

" Thank you..! "

Very uncharacteristically, Launch launched herself across the room to give Raditz a hug.

While she didn't get what he said about her changing and this 'gun' thing, she knew he was doing this all to help her.

What more could she ask for, it was the happiest day of her life.

" Aright, I'll call her, I didn't think Launch was using magic all this time.. "

Roshi's words had Raditz nod, but he knew this was very much possible, earth was very diverse.

Boss rabbit existed on earth, he had majin buu like magic abilities too, but instead of turning people into candy he turned them into carrots.

Roshi's sister herself was connected to the otherworld and had all kinds of weird people amongst her ranks, invisible man, vampire and so much more.

Launch clearly wasn't an alien and showed manifesting abilities, this being magic made the most sense, even if it was not, taking a look won't hurt.

" Okay, I'll call her in the evening, she gets grumpy otherwise, but she might not answer and you might have to make a trip yourself. "

Nodding lightly at Roshi's words, Raditz agreed, but he wasn't about to make a trip if not absolutely necessary, Baba had some weird tournament rules.

Raditz didn't want to waste too much time fighting long dead guys, who knows, she might even pull Bardock and Gine out to fight him.

She after all totally pulled out grandpa Gohan against Goku, and was 100% capable of pulling Super Saiyan three Goku out of the otherworld.
