Dragonball : Super Raditz

Time passed very quickly, and Krillin who should have gone back to the lookout in a few hours, stayed at Dr Omori's house for two days straight.

Tights being a big factor of his unnatural enthusiasm, but even these days had an end, no matter how much Krillin wanted to avoid it, the fated day was finally here.

The day Cell games begin.

"Krillin, look at this! This guy broke into a news room just to promote his tournament!"

"He even killed everyone there afterwards! How awful!"

Tights gasped while looking at the TV screen, it was replaying what Cell had done a day ago.

Tights was only seeing it now because she kept herself busy with her writing, she was always a bit behind on news because of that.

"It's just in, Mr Raditz, also known as Saiyaman Prime, the latest tournament winner is going in person to the Cell games!"

"His Saiyaforce team would be with him as well, so folks! We have nothing to fear."

"Because?"

*I AM HERE*

The screams of the audience repeating Saiyaman's classic lines almost detonated the atmosphere.

Right now the earthlings were aware of 'superheroes' like Saiyaman existing, so they had a good ability to accept 'supervillians' like Cell being a thing.

As for the Saiyan attack? That was taken as an alien villain incident, because that was how the comics portrayed it and the crowd took that as fact.

Even with King Furry's deliberate promotion of martial arts, the ability to accept that everyone can use ki was not something everyone understood correctly.

They would rather believe their hero's would keep them safe, so unless something drastic happened like the future timeline, Earth wasn't going to take Cell games seriously either, not when they had Raditz to rely on.

And Tights was aghast hearing that, turning towards Krillin she asked.

"Raditz? As in my brother in law?! What is he doing against a maniac like that!?"

Although Tights was quite detached from the real world affairs, because of her being cooped up in this island, but even then she knew Saiyaman was a comic.

A comic with Raditz as the main lead yes, but she figured that was a merchandise thing, she didn't know he can actually fight.

'Wait can he?!'

But Krillin seeing Tights unsettled, attempted to calm her down in panicked way.

"Hey relax, Raditz is really strong, he is even stronger than me."

Hearing that Tights looked hopeful, and Krillin wanted that look to stay on her face, so he continued with enthusiasm.

"And you know, Raditz isn't a human like us, he is an alien! His species is called Saiyan."

"And all of them are ridiculously strong!"

But this caused Tights to frown, with a finger to her chin, she pondered.

"Saiyan..? Where have I heard this before..?"

After a few seconds, her eyes opened wide as she exclaimed.

"Oh! I remember now! Jaco told me he was on Earth to hunt down a Saiyan...!"

"Krillin! Aren't Saiyan's supposed to be really evil guys? Does Bulma know..?"

Before Krillin could try and put out fire he had unintentionally caused, a voice cut into their conversation.

"Evil? That's not very nice to say about someone behind their back."

Tights froze, she mechanically looked back and then she saw it.

A large man was standing behind her, his body was full of muscles bulging out of his tight fitting clothes, a full head of spiky hair reached upto his waist, acting as his crown.

But most of all, those glowing yellow eyes which were looking at her, that was what made Tights freeze up like a deer in headlights.

'This is a Saiyan..?! Oh my god! How was Jaco going to fight someone like this!!!'

But Tights wasn't from the Briefs family for nothing, she had her own fair share of outer space adventures in her days.

So she gulped her fear away and laughed in an embarrassed way.

"Ha-Haha, I am joking brother in law, I am Tights, Bulma's sister!"

"Please don't kill me!"

Raditz twitched his eyes seeing Tights bow to him while saying something like that.

But before he could tell her not all Saiyan's were evil, or even fighters for that matter, someone else did.

"Sister, stop embarrassing yourself! And Raditz, don't scare my sister like that."

Said Bulma, who had just entered the room, and hearing her sister's entry, Tights collapsed onto the sofa.

She was safe! With how Bulma just spoke to Raditz, he is definitely no evil Saiyan, Jaco lied to her again, she will give him a piece of her mind next time she sees him.

"I was so scared! You married an alien Bulma! You never told me!"

Bulma gave a smile while coming towards Tights and sat herself besides her sister.

Giving her sister a pout Bulma said.

"You are always hiding in this island, I didn't have the chance to tell you."

"You would have known if you visited once a while!"

Tights gave a sheepish look to Bulma and joined her hands together, apologizing to her sister.

"Sorry! I got too busy with my new story, I couldn't find the time."

"And sorry brother in law, a friend of mine named Jaco told me Saiyan's are evil."

Raditz smiled, seeing that the sofa was full he simply sat himself in the air, while Krillin rubbed his head and went to sit on the table.

Remembering the name Tights mentioned, Raditz rubbed his chin while saying.

"Jaco? The galactic patrolman? He isn't wrong, a long time ago Saiyan's worked for the Freeza army."

"He was universal pirate, our name wasn't that good because of that, but even so, just like any other species, we have good and evil amongst us."

"...Well, ignoring Vegeta, I suppose only the good remain now."

Hearing that Tights remembered something again, Jaco might have told her this once, the Saiyan's were nearly extinct.

Startling herself, she bowed to Raditz.

"Sorry! I didn't mean to remind you."

Shaking his head Raditz said.

"It's nothing, now I have built a new family with Bulma, the past no longer matters."

"But something else does, if I am not to repeat the tragedy of planet Vegeta on Earth, we have to defeat Cell."

"The Cell games begin in an hour, are you ready Krillin, we need you in this."

Tights gulped and looked at Krillin, can her noseless bald headed friend really stack up against Cell.

Even with what Bulma did to him a day ago, was that enough?

Krillin himself rubbed the back of his head while laughing and then grabbed onto Raditz's shoulder like he was his best best buddy.

"You can count on me pal! We will fight back to back, just like the old times!"

Hearing this Raditz gave Krillin a look that said was he out of his mind, and Krillin frantically gestured with his eyes to play along.

So twitching his lips Raditz just decided to stay quiet, who knows what nonsense Krillin had said before.

But something else in this conversation sparked Raditz's interest, and just after that, he noticed something peculiar.

"Krillin.. why can't I sense you?"

Krillin stopped grabbing Raditz's shoulder and laughed once again.

Giving a peace sign to Raditz, he declared.

"You see what happened is Bulma found 17's design drawings in Gero's computer, she was working on this big machine while I saw it."

"You know 18 was a normal teenager named lazuli before Gero made her into a cyborg?! And seemed pretty strong too, fighting against Vegeta like that."

"So I figured I am reaching a limit, why not do what they did, I can't be worse that them right, Hahaha."

Hearing Krillin's implications, Raditz's eyes widened as he looked at the man in shock.

Was Krillin so dedicated to martial arts that he would go so far as to make himself into an android-

'And I can impress Tights if I do well in the tournament! You are a genius Krillin!'

Raditz twitched his eyes, and there it was, Krillin's real thoughts on the matter, now Raditz just shook his head.

This was Krillin alright.

"I see.."

Raditz finally managed to say, before decisively turning towards Bulma and saying.

"You called me for the armors, I thought Krillin was handling them, but it seems.."

The husband and wife looked at Tights and Krillin once, which caused them to blush, before they turned around.

And Bulma after having enough of pulling her sister's leg, said to Raditz.

"Yes, but Krillin was a bit busy."

After turning silent for a bit as she looked at the time, Bulma pursed her lips.

"Raditz, can do it? Can you defeat Cell?"

Raditz just smiled at his wife, before his eyes turned grey and his hair, in the awed eyes of the crowd, started flashing white intermittently.

"I think I can do it Blue, I have achieved something quite remarkable in this year."

Now Bulma didn't know what this was, but she had seen Super Saiyan before, so she thought this might be a legendary Super Saiyan thing.

What nobody knew, was that this was something way more noteworthy than simple Super Saiyan.

Raditz had finally managed to go past omen and was beginning to realise the real ultra instinct, his black hair flashing once a while was a signal, a signal that a mortal was about to step into the domain even gods couldn't.
