(y/n)'s pov

Goku stops in his path as we lock eyes. Seeing my troubled gaze he looks sympathetic for a moment and smiles apologetically. "Sorry (y/n), didn't mean to scare you. I need to find Master Roshi to introduce him to a girl." Heart still hammering I wave him off. "It's fine, He's on the toilet down the hall."

I hear his footsteps crossing the wooden floors before a toilet flushes and Roshi runs outside, Goku leading the way. Sighing at Roshi's bloody nose, I guess that it's safe to assume that Roshi already got a good look at this girl.

Standing in the kitchen, I hear a loud "HEEEYY!" From the pervert himself. Shaking my head, I put the knife back where it belongs before walking outside. Seeing Roshi's desperate attempts to flirt, some of which calling Goku and Krillin his sons, I stride over and stick out my hand.

"This is Master Roshi. I'm (y/n), one of his helpers. What's your name?" The girl hesitantly shakes it. "It's Launch."

I take in her appearance. Purple hair, yellow shirt, green booty shorts, and a body that fits her just right. She had very soft facial features and kind of looks like an UwU girl. Before you ask I SWEAR I'M NOT HITTING ON HER! I was just curious about why Master was drooling. All that put aside, she really is quite the looker.

"Well Launch, nice to meet you. I see you already meet Goku and Krillin." I state, gesturing to the two boys.

Launch nods in confirmation while gazing at the star-struck Master behind me.

"Ah yes, they seemed to have saved me from a lot of trouble."

Raising my eyebrow, I turn to Krillin in search of an answer but he just shrugs. I sigh to myself. They don't even know what they got themselves into. Roshi then leans over to Krillin and Goku.

"I am hereby making you certified students from this day forward."

Krillin smirks as Goku jumps for joy. Launch tilts her head and smiles as she watches them celebrate.

"So these are your students?" She asks, gesturing to Goku and Krillin.

Master Roshi smiles and nods my direction. "(y/n) over there is too, the three of them are training under me since I am the famous turtle master."

I smile to myself. Yes, now I can get stronger to avenge you. Mother, Father, Ivy, I hope you can forgive me for when you needed me. For now, is it ok if I stick by their side?

Goku frowns and puts his hands behind his head. "But Master, you haven't taught me anything yet." At this Master Roshi sweat drops before coughing nervously. "A-anyways, since you are our guest Launch, would you like to take a walk with me?"

Launch surveys the area. "But sir, we are on an island. How will we go on a walk?"

Master Roshi smiles at her. "We will walk the beach of course! A romantic stroll for two people. Whaddya say?" Launch hums in thought. "It seems like a short walk to me but sounds pleasant. Sure, I'll go on a walk with you."

Master Roshi's eyes light up and he smiles. "You mean it? Oh boy oh boy!" He then begins to dance around, yelling with glee and swinging his staff from side-to-side. He then composes himself and smiles at Launch.

"Since you're here, you might as well study martial arts with us too."

Launch chuckles nervously. "I don't know, I have soft hands and I've never been very interested in fighting." Roshi hums in thought. "Well, there are many benefits to martial arts besides being able to beat the tar out of people ya know? It increases your physical stamina, it's good for the noggin, and uh- it's good on your oily pores!"
