I'll have to come up with some appropriate way of ending it later...meantime, here it is, in all its "glory"... ==== [ALL enter the theater once again.] DragonBall GX Episode 4 MIKE: Doctor Who doesn't feature this many episodes. RECAP OF PREVIOUS EPISODE TOM [matronly voice]: "KevinK69 had one of his "episodes", again..." TITLE: MAKE MY MOTHER HAPPY: BRING HER FRIEND BACK WITH THE DRAGONBALLS TOM: Saaaaaay...! MIKE: I can see where this is heading. CROW: Mike, get me out of here. MIKE: Why? CROW: My circuits are going to melt together. I just know it. EXT: DAY-VALLEY WHERE THE PREVIOUS BATTLE TOOK PLACE. BOTH KAKAROTO (GOKU) AND XENA STILL EMBRACED AFTER THEIR REUNION AND REVELATION OF HER IDENTITY AS THE MOTHER OF GOKU. THE OTHER Z FIGHTERS WATCH ON. TOM [muffled, as GOKU]: "Hey, my bubblegum is stuck to your leather nightie...!" TRUNKS (Speaking to Goten) We'll I have to say, you have a hot looking grandmother and you wanted to have a date with her. GOTEN (Yelling) I didn't know that she was my grandmother! Christ do you think I would of all people that I would do such a thing! CROW: "Now if she was *your* grandmother...!" EVERYONE LAUGHED AT GOTEN'S REACTION. ESPECALY PAN AND UBB. MIKE: "Ha-ha! Oh, we enjoy such fun at your expense!" GOHAN I wonder how she stayed so young; she should be at least 60 or 70 by now? CROW: It's a New Zealand thing. You wouldn't understand. MIKE: You're right. I don't. BUMA I have to agree with you, I need to look at her spaceship. Also I might want to do a DNA test on her to prove that she is Goku's mother? CROW: Oh, thank you, Marcia Clark. TOM: "The gloves don't fit!" GOHAN So far I can tell that Pan and Xena look almost alike, So she must be a genetic match, TOM: Yep. Gohan's got a future on the LAPD. So far it doesn't matter, at the moment Dasan is happy and I wouldn't worry about it. MIKE: "Not Goku's mother, but an incredible simulation." GOKU AND XENA FIANLY BREAK THEIR EMBRACED. [CROW makes a sound like tearing Velcro.] THEN GOKU'S STOMACH BEGINS TO GROWL. GOKU Boy I feel hungry right now, Can I take you to my home. CROW: "Yeah, you look like you could feed us for a while!" TOM: So now it's the Donner family reunion...? I guess that you must be hungry after that fight. XENA STOMACH BEGINS TO GROWL AS WELL. XENA I have to say yes. MIKE: "It says so in the script." GOKU Good, I would like you to meet my wife. Her name is ChiChi she is a nice woman. TOM: "She runs this Mexican restaurant, see..." PAN Ohgechan that would be great, Can she stay with us please? CROW: "I'll feed her every day, and take her on walks...and even make sure there's fresh newspaper on the floor!" GOKU Of course she can stay with us. But I wonder if ChiChi will let her, she can sometimes be a pain. TOM: "A nice woman...but a *pain* of a nice woman!" GOHAN I think she will. MIKE: "I read the script, too." XENA O.K but first I have to get some stuff out of my ship. BUMA Sure and we can take it to a safe place, It might need repairs. EXT-DAY SKY. XENA AND THE OTHER Z FIGHTERS FLY TO THE PLACE WHERE XENA SPACESHIP IS LOCATED. IT TOOK THEM NEARLY AN HOUR TO REACH IT. TOM: And Pan introduced everybody again, twice, just to make sure! EXT-DAY LANDING SITE. THE SPACESHIP LOOKED LIKE A SPHERACAL SHAPE POD. A TIPICAL SHIP THAT A SAYANJIN WOULD TRAVEL IN. ALL: At first...! WHEN THEY GOT CLOSER IT LOOKED MODIFIED WITH ALIEN TECHNOLGY. IT WAS ALSO MODIFED TO CARRY TWO PEOPLE. TOM [sarcastically]: Ooh, a *passenger seat!* It *must* be alien tech! XENA LANDED FIRST AND THEN GOKU, THEN PAN, AND THEN THE OTHERS. XENA PRESSED A BUTTON AND THE SHIPS DOOR OPENED. THEN XENA REACHED INTO A SHIP AND GRABED SOME STUFF INCLUDING A BEDROLL OUT OF THE SHIP. TOM: Huh! Space-going, cosmically powerful warrior woman, and she still reverts to Girl Scout training! BUMA THEN TOOK A CLOSER LOOK AT THE SHIP FROM THE INSIDE. BUMA This ship appeared to be modified a bit, somewhat different from the ship that you and Goku flew in. MIKE [Californian voice]: "Oh, wow, look, man! A big-block V8! Those didn't come stock, man!" GOHAN ALSO LOOKED WITH BUMA. GOHAN I can agree with you and look. There is some water in the ship; CROW [as BUMA]: "That was me, sorry!" it appeared that what Xena told us, the ship had an emergency suspended animation device. If the ship is damage or the person is badly injured, then the device is activated. MIKE: And look! The seat cushion can be used as a floatation device! BUMA There is your answer right their, she must be in her late 20's I guess and that this device slowed or stopped her aging. ALL: Ah, okay...sure, I get it...that's -- HUH?! XENA THEN WALKS TO GOKU XENA I'm ready, let's go. CROW: What, right *here?* GOKU OK (Goku looks at Buma) Buma, you and the rest of the family can come with us. ChiChi can make plenty to eat. BUMA That's OK, We need to get this ship back to our place so we can repair and examine it. And besides Vegeta is not over your mom yet. TOM: Mike, can I make a "your mom" joke? MIKE: No! GOKU That's OK! (Turning to Uub) Uub, you can come with us and eat. UUB That's OK My family is preparing dinner tonight and I don't want to disappoint them, Maybe that I can come some other time. BUMA I agree we can arrange a party some time that we can invite all out friends and celebrate your mother's arrival. MIKE [high-pitched, as BUMA]: "And I'll arrange the punch and cookies!" GOKU That will be great, tell us the date and we can all come to your place. BUMA Swell, I'll see you later. GOHAN Buma can I come with and help with the spaceship. CROW: "Y'know, turn the dials and play with some of the thingamajiggies..." BUMA Certainly not, You need to spend time with OhBanchan. Maybe you can come over tomorrow morning and help me look at the space ship. GOHAN Sure I'll be their tomorrow first thing. THEN GOKU, XENA AND THE REST OF THE SON FAMILY LEVETATE. TOM [singing]: "Here comes the Sons, doo-doo-doo-doo..." GOKU All right Kasan, you just have to follow us home. XENA Sure, I'm looking forward to it. MIKE: "I tried looking backward, but I ran into a tree!" GOKU I'll see you later, Bye! GOKU AND THE REST OF THE FAMILY FLYAWAY HOME. MIKE [high-pitched voice]: Fly away home! Wheeeee! TOM: Flap your ears, Dumbo! UUB (Looking at Buma and the others.) I'll also be going, My family is expecting me home, See yea! CROW: Yeah, whatever. Go get a haircut, or something. UUB THEN FLYS OFF INTO THE HORIZION. BUMA We'll let's get going; we have to carry this big thing home with us! TRUNKS AND VEGETA LOOKED LIKE THEY ARE NOT HAPPY. ALL [singing]: "Wah-wah-wah-wahhhh..." Commercial break TOM: Batteries not included. MIKE: Your mileage may vary! CROW: Call now! She's waiting! EXT-EARLY EVENING: THE SON HOME. MIKE: So it took them until the first commercial break to figure out where to eat dinner? TOM: Stephen Bochco this ain't. GOKU, XENA, PAN, GOHAN, AND GOTEN LAND IN FRONT OF GOKU'S HOME. XENA Is this your home Kakaroto? GOKU Yes, this is my home; I'm looking forward to introduce you to my wife. TOM: No! Not more introductions! GOHAN Well Kasan will not believe this. CROW: Yeah, it's before 2 a.m. and you're not stinking drunk. GOKU AND THE OTHERS WALK TO THE FRONT DOOR AND OPENS IT. GOKU WALKS INSIDE. INT-EARLY EVENING: THE SON HOME. TOM: Yeah, we figured that out, thank you. GOKU Chi-Chi, I'm home! Is dinner ready yet, I'm starved? CHI-CHI Goku, you're home! Were have you been all day? Viddle was worried sick all day about some invasion... MIKE: "...so I guess that means you didn't get to the unemployment office -- again?" VIDDLE COMES OUT OF THE LIVING ROOM AND RUNS TO GOHAN. VIDDLE Gohan! (Embraces him) baka, baka, baka, I was so scared that you would never come back. CROW: She thinks she's Fozzie Bear. "Wacka-wacka-wacka!" TOM: Uh, no, Senator Helms, it's Japanese. It means she thinks he's an idiot. CROW: So how's that narrow down the field any in this fanfic? TOM: Okay, point taken, there... GOHAN It's O.K. now Viddle, I'm safe and so is Pan. CROW [as VIDDLE]: "Oh. Pity." CHI-CHI NOTICES A TALL DARK HAIR WOMAN WITH BLUE EYES AND WEARS BACK LEATHER AND ARMOR AND HAS A TAIL. CHI-CHI And who is this woman, could this Goten's new girlfriend. TOM: Yeah, Goten goes for "hair women" with "back leather and armor". CROW: You can still flame this tripe for spelling and grammar? I'm impressed. GOTEN No, not exactly. PAN Mama, I would like to introduce you to Great-Ohbanchan. CHI-CHI THEN GOES INTO SHOCK. CROW: -- as usual! CHI-CHI tha.tha.tha.thats you mother! MIKE: Hey, it's Chi-Chi's new Web site! tha.tha.tha.thats! GOKU I would like to introduce you to Kasan. She calls herself Xena. She will be staying with us for some time. CHI-CHI Ni.Ni.Ni.Ni.Nice to met you Xena, or should I call you mother in law. MIKE: And the Microsoft version of the Web page. CROW: Mike, there are four dots in that address. If it was an IP address, it'd be all screwed up. MIKE: Like I said, Microsoft... TOM [Python voice]: She is the wife who says...Ni! XENA Xena is fine; everyone calls me by my name. I have to get used to being called Kasan, Ohbanchan, and what ever. MIKE: Okay, "What Ever", what do you want for dinner? CROW: *That* was a cheap one. GOKU Is dinner ready yet? We are both starving to death. CROW [as CHI-CHI]: "So...that means if I leave you there for a while, I'll get top billing in this fanfic! Hmmmm...!" CHI-CHI NOTICES THE TAIL, AND SHE REALIZES THAT SHE WILL BE VERY BUSSY COOKING ALL NIGHT, ESPECALY FOR A NEWLY ARIVED SAYANJIN WHO HAS NEVER EATEN ANY EARTH FOOD BEFORE. CHI-CHI Viddle, you better prepare some more food, we are going to be in for a long night. INT-NIGHT: KITCHEN TABLE THE KITCHEN IS FULL OF BOWLS OF EMPTY FOOD. [ALL generally snicker.] TOM: No wonder you're hungry an hour later after eating Japanese food! BESIDES GOHAN AND GOTENS USUAL NUMBER. GOKU AND XENA IS ADDING TO THE PILE. XENA HAD NEVER EATEN ANY EATRH FOOD BEFORE AND NEVER HAD USED ANY CHOPSTICKS. AFTER GETTING A HANG OF IT, XENA BECAME A PRO WITH THEM. SHE HAD ALL KINDS OF FOOD FROM TEMPURA TO RAMEN. WHILE THE BOTH OF THEM ATE GOKU SPEAKS TO CHI-CHI. MIKE [as if his mouth is full]: "Mmmph arrrumph arraumph!" GOKU Chi-Chi, where is Kasan going to stay? CHI-CHI I have never thought of it, she can stay in the living room. PAN Ohbanchan, can she stay in my room, please? TOM and CROW: Yes! YES! YESSSS!!! MIKE: Guys... VIDDLE I don't know, It's up to Xena, great-Ohbanchan. XENA It's OK I have brought my roll up bed with me. INT-NIGHT: PAN'S BEDROOM. PAN IS SLEEPING IN HER PAJAMAS WHILE XENA IS SLEEPING IN HER LEATHER OUTFIT. TOM: All RI-I-IGHT!! CROW: Thank you, KevinK69, thank you!! MIKE: *Guys!* CUT TO DREAM SEQUENCE. IN A FIELD OF GREEN GRASS THERE IS A YOUNG WOMAN WITH STRIKING STRAWBERY BLOND HAIR WITH A SAME COLOR TAIL. SHE TURNS HER HEAD AROUND. TOM [singing]: "Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to...Strawberry Fields..." XENA Gabrielle! MIKE [Brando voice]: "Hey, STELLAAA!" XENA WAKES UP AND LOOKS AROUND THE BEDROOM AND THEN TURNS ON HER SIDE. PAN WAS WOKEN BY XENA AND TRIES TO TALK. CROW: What, she didn't *try* to wake up, too? PAN Great Ohbanchan, are you OK. CROW: "Have you awoken from the author's attempts to make vaguely lesbian insinuations about you?" XENA Yea, It was just a dream. XENA TRIES TO GO BACK TO SLEEP. PAN Gabrielle! MIKE [Brando voice]: "STELLAAA!" XENA What? PAN Gabrielle, was that her name? Is she the one who talked about who was your friend who died by Frost? XENA That was her. PAN You must miss her. XENA Yes, but I can't bring her back, It's late go to sleep. XENA TURNS ON HER SIDE AND GOES TO SLEEP. [ALL imitate the Three Stooges' comic snore.] PAN LIES ON HER BACK THINKING OF SOMETHING. TOM: First time for everything... PAN (VO) That what she thinks. EXT-DAY: SON HOME. CROW: What? That's it? No shower scene?!? GOKU AND PAN ARE TALKING. GOKU Yani! Bring her friend back with the DragonBalls! PAN Why not, Great-Ohbanchan misses her friend so much, she dreamt of her last night, Look at her she just look so sad. Please Oh-Gechan that will make her so happy. CROW: "And besides, she's running low on batteries for the --" MIKE: CROW! GOKU I was waiting to use them to bring Piccolo back, but if it makes Kasan happy, why not. MIKE: "Besides, I owe him money...he can stay dead for a while..." PAN Yataaa! But we shouldn't resurrect her until the day of the party, which will be a big surprise for Ohbanchan. TOM: Surprise! We played God and upset the natural order of the Universe for you! GOKU OK we can start tomorrow. CUT TO FOLLOWING DAY. EXT-DAY: VALLEY. MIKE [Valley Girl voice]: "Rilly! Fer sherr!" GOKU, TRUNKS, GERU, GOTEN, AND PAN; GATHER AROUND TO PLAN ON RETREAVING THE DRAGONBALLS. TOM [as an NFL quarterback]: "Okay, Red Dog 24! On two! BREAK!" GOKU OK remember this is surprise, so don't tell no one about what we are doing here. GOTEN, TRUNKS, GERU, AND PAN (IN UNISON) HI! MIKE: They get really aggressive about greeting people around here! PAN OK what are we waiting for lets go! EXT-DAY: STRIP CLUB. CROW: Wait! Suddenly, this fanfic is looking up again! GOTEN AND TRUNKS ARE LOOKING AT THE FIVE STAR DRAGOBALL ON THE TOP OF THE DISCO-BALL. TOM: You're trying to tell me that Zagat gave this '70s dive *five stars*? TRUNKS There it is, look! Goten. (Angrily) Goten. GOTEN LOOKS AT THE STRIPERS STRIPING. MIKE: Stryper, the Christian rock band, is playing a strip joint? TOM [singing]: "Ten stripers striping, nine maids-a-milking..." TRUNKS (YELLING AND HITTING GOTEN) GOTEN! CROW [startled, as GOTEN]: "*Cantaloupes!* Oh, sorry..." GOTEN Why did you do that! CROW: "'Cause what I wanted to do would've killed bystanders!" TRUNKS Because you weren't listing, I've found it look. THEY BOTH LOOK AT THE FIVE STAR DragonBall. EXT-DAY: STRIP-CLUB. GOTEN AND TRUNKS FLY OFF WITH THE DragonBall AFTER THEY CAUSED A RUKUS IN THE STRIP CLUB. WIPE TO MIKE: Wait, whoa! They caused a "rukus"? TOM [Python voice]: "When suddenly, the animator suffered a fatal heart attack!" CROW: That last scene was swallowed by a plot hole the size of New Jersey... INT-DAY: CAVE. GERU IS WORRIED. MIKE [Twiki voice]: "Bee-dee-bee-dee-bee-dee! Did I leave the coffee maker on?" GERU IS LOOKING AT THE TWO STAR DragonBall THAT IS IN THE MIDDLE OF A HERD OF SLEEPING RAPTERS. TOM [very sarcastically]: Oh, how *original!* CROW: Kev, ol' boy, you have just red-lined the Fanboy Meter! GERU G, G, G, G, G, G, G, G, GU. MIKE: "This scene is brought to you by the letter 'G'!" PAN Be quiet, or you will wake them up. PAN SLOWLEY GRABS THE TWO STAR DRAGONBALL AND FLYS UP. TOM: What is with the number of stars on the DragonBalls? They must have swiped the props out of the state lottery's ping-pong ball machine. PAN Yata! ALL: Yadda, yadda, yadda! PAN NOT CONCENTRATING LANDS ON THE RAPTOR'S TAIL. THIS PAIN WAKES THE RAPTOR! EXT-DAY: OUTSIDE CAVE IN THE VALLEY. TOM [singing]: "Out in the valley of the Jolly Green Raptor...!" PAN AND GERU RUN OUT OF THE CAVE FOLLOWED BY A HERD OF RAPTOR. PAN AND GERU TRY TO OUTRUN THE RAPTORS BUT THEY ARE CATCHING UP FAST. CROW: Quick, join the NBA! The Raptors can't beat anybody there! PAN Baka! I told you to be quiet! GERU It's not my fault! It's not my fault! MIKE: Didn't work for Han, didn't work for Lando... JUST AS THE RAPTORS WERE ABOUT TO TAKE A BITE OUT OF PAN'S AND GERU'S BEHINDS, THEY MAKE IT BY THE CLIFF AND THEY LEVETATE, UNFORTUNATEY THE RAPTORS FALL OF THE CLIFF LANDING ABOUT 60 FT. ONTO THE GROUND. CROW [whining]: "I'll sue!" THE RAPTORS WERE KNOCKED OUT SILLY. TOM: Wait! Was that...humor? CROW and MIKE: Ummmmm...no. TOM: Good. Just checking. EXT-DAY: AN AMUSEMENT PARK. CROW [GoodFellas voice]: "Do I amuse you? Do you find me amusing?" GOKU LOOKS AT THE FOUR STAR DRAGONBALL. THE BALL AS ONE OF THE PRIZES AT THE BELL TOP GAME. TOM: Oh, I get it! And the bit in the disco was the "bell bottom" game! [TOM ducks, just in time to avoid MIKE's fist.] CROW: This satellite is not big enough for you to hide, Servo! GOKU So if I hit this bell, in one try I can get this round thing? TOM [popping back into view]: Another nameless "round thing"! One of Xena's other "special toys", maybe? BOTH OWNER Yes! MIKE: "Both Owner"? They're Siamese twins? GOKU No problem then! GOKU GRABS THE HEAVY HAMMER AND RAISED IT ABOVE HIS HEAD, THEN GOKU SLAMS THE HAMMER RIGHT ON THE PEDEL, THAT CAUSES THE WEIGHT TO FLY SKY HIGH HITTING THE BELL, CAUSING IT TO EXPLODE! MIKE: "Alright, kid, that's destruction of carnival property! You wait here while we page your parents!" THE SPECTATORS LOOK ON IN HORROR OF THAT AMAZING FEET. CROW: "Wow! I didn't know they made Keds in that size!" MIKE [Steve Martin voice]: "He bought...the *cruel* shoes!" BOOTH OWNER (IN SHOCK AND GIVING THE DRAGONBALL) Here you go! GOKU (TAKING THE FOUR STAR DRAGONBALL) Yeleto! CROW: "Yeah, 'yer mama' to you, too!" TOM: Wait, *that* scene was humor, right? MIKE: Nope. CROW: 'Fraid not. TOM: Okay. WIPE TO THE NEXT DAY MIKE [pantomiming]: "Wipe on! Wipe off!" INT-DAY: SON HOME-GOHAN AND VIDDLE'S ROOM. VIDDLE IS TRING TO FIND SOMETHING FOR XENA TO WEAR FOR THE PARTY AT BUMA'S HOME. CROW: Quick! FedEx'em a Vicky's catalog! XENA Why can't I wear what I'm wearing right now? VIDDLE It's a party, and we dress special for these occasions and besides wearing this leather and stuff on will attract the wrong crowd. XENA The wrong crowd? ALL: Us!! VIDDLE Let's say that some of the guests can get to excited look at a cladly dressed woman. CROW: Let's *not* say that! TOM: This guy needs to take courses in English as a *First* Language! XENA I think I can handle them. EXT-DAY: BUMA'S HOME (AKA CAPSULE CORPERATION HQ) TOM [Batman narrator's voice]: "Stately Wayne Manor...!" KAMESEN IS THROWN ACROSS THE ROOM AND SMASHES AGAIST THE TREE. KAMESEN LOOKS NOT GOOD FOR WEAR, OOLONG RUN TWOARDS KAMESEN. MIKE: "And don't bring up Amway with me ever again!" OOLONG I think you just give it up. There is no way that this woman is interested in you. CROW: "-- Mr. Kennedy!" MIKE: Ouch! KAMESEN I think your right, she has some sprit. TOM: Okay, now. Humor? CROW and MIKE: No! ALL THE OTHER FRIENDS OF GOKU ARE THERE. YAMACHA, TENISHEN, CHA-SU, VEGETA, BRA, GOHAN, VIDDLE, AND GOTEN. TOM: And Pan introduced *everyone*, even if they already knew each other! THEN 3 PEOPLE COME TOWARDS XENA. ONE IS ANDROID #18 A BLOND WOMAN WITH A MEAN LOOK, THE OTHER IS MARRION A YOUNGER BLOND WHO IS THE DAUGHTER OF #18. MIKE: That would make her a #9, I guess. THEN THE FATHER IS AN OLD SHORT MAN WITH A MUSTACH. HIS NAME IS KURIN AND IS LONG TIME FRIEND OF GOKU. KURIN Hello! XENA Hi! TOM [brightly]: Hi, there! CROW [just as brightly]: Hello! KURIN My name is Kurin and you must be Goku's mother. XENA Yes! TOM: Yes! Hi! CROW: Hello! Hi! Yes! KURIN It's an honor to meet you; I have to say that you have a strong son and a wonderful friend. You should be proud in how your son turned out. TOM: Yes! Hello! XENA Who are these two. CROW: Hi! KURIN I would like to introduce my wife #18 and my daughter Marion. TOM: Hi! So how's the party CROW: Hello! Hi! TOM: Yes! Hi! Hello! MIKE [irritated]: *Enough*, already! XENA It's OK, But I have this old man trying to grab my breasts, but I took care of him. KURIN Oh, That's Kamesen Roshi, He's like that all the time with young women. MIKE: "Yes, you'll have to just get used to harrassment now that you're on earth!" TOM: Kamesen Roshi -- future Supreme Court Justice. XENA That old man will ever learn not to mess with me. Speaking of which where is Kakaroto or you call Goku? CROW: "Yeah, I need to slug him, too!" GOHAN He and Pan are running an errand for the party; they should be here soon. MIKE [gossipy]: "Those two are always out raising the dead for these parties. They go to so much trouble...I don't know how they do it!" EXT-DAY: COUNTRYSIDE. GOKU AND PAN LOOK AROUND THE AREA, GOKU IS CARING A BAG FULL OF THE SEVEN DRAGONBALLS. GOKU OPENS THE BAG DROPING ALL OF THE SEVEN DRAGONBALLS. [ALL make "Boing, boing!" noises.] GOKU AND PAN LOOK AT EACH OTHER AND NOD. TOM [as GOKU]: "Let's ROCK!" GOKU Arise Shenlong! SUDENLY THE BALLS GLOW AND THEN A BEAM OF LIGHT ARISES FROM THE BALLS. [MIKE holds CROW's beak shut.] THE BEAM TAKES FORM OF A SHAPE OF A DRAGON. THE DRAGON KNOWN AS SHENLONG HAS RISEN. SHENLONG Who is the one who called me out to grant them a wish? MIKE: "-- at this hour?" PAN (Moving forward) Shenlong, can you resurrect Xena's friend, the Sayanjin? Named Gabrielle And can you bring her here? MIKE: "And my teddy bear! I lost that five years ago...can you find that, too?" SHENLONG PAUSES FOR A MOMENT AND THEN REPLIES. CROW: "You didn't say 'Simon Says'!" SHENLONG Yes I can grant you the wish. SHENLONGS EYES GLOW RED. THEN SUDDENLY A YOUNG WOMAN STARTS TO APPREAR. A STWABERY BLOND WEARING SAYANJIN ARMOR AND HAS A RED/BLOND TAIL. THE GIRL LOOKS SURPRISED. CROW: "Wait, a minute ago, I was in a hit TV show...now I've got a tail, and I'm in a rancid fanfic! What gives?" PAN (Cheering) Yata! SHENLONG Your wish has been granted. TOM: "Now go away! And next time, don't call me during '90210'!" THEN SHENLONG DISAPERS, THEN THE SEVEN DRAGONBALLS START TO LEVETATE IN THE AIR SPINING THEM AROUND, THEN THEY SCATER ALL OVER THE SKY SEPERATING THEM FOR ONE YEAR. GABBREALE LOOKS AROUND, PUZZLED AT HER NEW SURROUNDINGS. THEN SHE LOOKS AT THE YOUNG MAN AND THE YOUNGER GIRL. MIKE [Joisey accent]: "Hey! Ya got'nee gum?" GABBREALE What is this place, I fell something about it that is very familiar who are you and where am I. CROW: "And who is spelling my name like this?" PAN My name is Pan, I'm a friend of Xena's, and to be more precise I'm her great granddaughter. TOM: "And I'm real good at introductions!" CROW: "Everything else, I just try!" GABBREALE You know Xena! GOKU (Smiling) Yes I do, I can take you to her. INT-AFTERNOON: BUMA'S HOME. XENA IS SITTING DOWN AT A ROUND TABLE WITH BUMA AND CHI-CHI. MIKE [grandiosely]: They are the Yentas of the Round Table! BUMA Well were done gathering all the data from your ship, when will you be leaving soon? XENA I don't know, I've awoken from 20 years of sleep. TOM: Oh. So, you'll be running for Congress, then? I would like to spend some time with my son, get to know him and maybe learn from him. Also I have some kind of bond with this planet that I can't understand. BUMA That's interesting what kind of bond? TOM: "A long-term divisible. AA rating! Can't take the volatility in the market nowadays..." XENA Just a feeling that I belong here or connected with this world, I have to find it out. CROW [as BUMA]: "Oh, that. You're sitting on my bubble gum..." By the way, where is Vegeta? TOM: Which Vegeta? The man, the planet, the prince, the dessert topping...? BUMA Still upset about you, He is still uneasy about you, despite what you said about you no longer wanting to harm him, I think he is very uncomfortable about a woman stronger than he is. CROW: "Has to do with a bad experience on _American Gladiators_, from what I understand..." THEN GOKU AND PAN APPEAR FROM THE DOORWAY. GOKU Hi everyone, sorry I couldn't make it earlier. I hope you saved me some food? KURIN Goku, Glad you made it. MIKE: "Glad I hit the spread before you did!" XENA Kakaroto, Where you have been all afternoon? TOM [as GOKU, breezily]: "Oh, out raising the dead. You?" PAN Getting you a surprise present, you might know her from someplace. THEN A WOMAN STARTS TO WALK IN THE DOORWAY, GABBERALE COMES IN THE ROOM AND SEES HER BEST FRIEND AND CAMPANION. GABBERALES EYES START TO BECOME TEARFULL WITH JOY. XENA BEGINS TO START CRYING AND FEEL THAT SHE CAN BEILIVE WHAT SHE IS SEEING. MIKE: She can? THEN XENA GETS UP AND RUN TOWARDS HER COMMPANION, GABBERALE STARTS DOING THE SAME, THEN FINALY THEY EMBRACE WITH JOY, TWO LONG TIME COMPANIONS FINALY REUNITE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN AGES. CROW: That whole bit looked like a "before" picture in an ad for a grammar and spelling checker! XENA I saw you die, how did you come back? TOM [Python voice]: "I got better!" GABBREALE Don't ask just I'm glade I'm with you again. CROW: And I'm Endust, yeah, yeah. EVERYONE IN THE PARTY DIDN'T HAVE A DRY EYE. MIKE: Wait, does that mean they *did* or they *didn't*? TOM: Didn't *what*? CROW: I think they were crying about the grammar. PAN ALSO HAVE A TEAR IN HER EYE, THE ONLY ONE THAT DIDN'T CRY WAS GOKU. GOKU WAS SMILING KNOWING HE HAS NEVER BEEN SO HAPPY IN HIS LIFE. NARRATOR For the first time, Goku has seen the most beautiful site in his life. CROW: W-W-W-dot-busty babes-dot-- [MIKE slaps him one.] CROW: --OW! The peaceful smile of his mothers face. While this joyful moment is happening, an evil force is waiting in the shadows that will shatter this peace. CROW: About time! A SHADOWY MAN APEARS IN THE BACKGROUND BEHIND THE EARTH. TOM: Bill Gates! COMERCAL BREAK. TOM: Nothing about that was "comercal", was it? CROW & MIKE: NO! GOKU (VO) Hi I'm Goku; CROW: "-- gimme my 10% and let me out of this lousy fanfic!" the girls are going to take my mom and her friend shopping. I hope they don't cause trouble. TOM: I don't believe this. "Oh, Gabrielle, my best friend, you've just returned from the dead! Let's go shopping!" MIKE: Maybe Penney's is holding a "Back-from-the-Dead" sale. BUMA Don't worry, I think they will have a good time today. CROW: Beats being dead! DragonBall GX: Xena and Gabrielle go on a shopping spree. TOM: Some superhero story. MIKE: Maybe they're going to shop...um, superheroically? CHI-CHI I hope I don't get broke from these two.
