Dragon ball: Forgotten Hope

Ep 1 - Stone People From The Sky

It was a calm, quiet night in Mount Paozu, animals, prey or predators, sleeping. A small hut can be seen under the cold night. Inside was a small boy around an eleven-year-old boy named "Son Goku", sitting on his bed, wide awake, deep in thought.

Lately, he has been strangely getting dreams where he is standing on... nothing, seeing an endless sea of clouds, and seems to be in the middle of nowhere until he comes face to face with a traditional four-fingered green dragon (lizard in his eyes). That dragon was quite intimidating at first, and due to that, he tried to attack him (okay, maybe more), but even though he did try to attack it, he always woke up just the moment he comes close it. It now became a cycle ever since his grandpa died, and he hates it.

He then decides that if he has stopped this cycle, he has to allow that dragon (lizard) to guide him. "Alright, one last time..." He then gets ready to sleep while still holding on to a serious expression.

He closed his eyes and he started to feel a pull, his arms and legs became weaker, his sense of reality became disordered and suddenly, his surroundings shifted and twisted.

He quickly jolted up and was breathing heavily, he was hoping this strange occurrence would stop once he listened to reason.

Goku groaned, feeling dizzy, he stands up and looked at his surroundings. Endless sea of clouds and he was lazily floating around, completed with silence.

Goku frowns, he took a deep breath and... "HEEEYYYY!!! I KNOW YOU'RE HERE, COME OOOOOUUUUTTT!!!!!!"

Their response was complete silence at first until a strong wind picks up and Goku immediately recognised it as he quickly turned around.

"RRRRRRRAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!" A loud roar echoes, blowing away Goku and the clouds effortlessly. Goku wants to throw up, it feels so real, the wind, the smell of the dragon's breath, the dizziness of being thrown across the sky.

He suddenly stopped, his body quickly froze still and gave off a small glow. "Son Goku, our world is in danger..." The dragon spoke with wisdom in his voice. Goku's eyes widened, he never heard a lizard that big spoke before, not even when he first met it.

But, how did he know his name? He never introduced himself towards it...

The dragon moves close towards Goku's eye level. "I know this is sudden for a child like yourself, but it's urgent that you and your future friends will face... A great weapon that will destroy the world..."

"What...?" Goku was shocked, confused, a weapon that will destroy everything...? He quickly became angry. "Did you seriously really think I'll believe that crap?! How do I know that you won't try and trick me!?"

Strangely, the mythical dragon smiles, almost like he knew he would say that.

"Maybe this will change your mind." The dragon started to glow and seven orange star orbs came out of its body, Goku's eyes widened as he recognised one of them. "Hey! How did you get Grandpa's Ball?!" He yelled at the dragon, pointing at him.

"That ball is a part of me, a four star dragon ball. Gohan found one of them while he was still at his prime." The dragon explained as the seven orbs disappeared, Goku really wanted answers from the dragon, he couldn't- no, he won't let this chance go empty handed!

"Who are you? WHAT even ARE you? How did you know about grandpa Gohan? Why now that you are telling me this? What's a dragon ball? What weapon are you talking about? Does it really destroy the world? How powerful is it? What's your name?" Goku continues his barrage of questions towards the dragon, who has a large sweat drop sliding across the side of his head. Maybe he should've waited until Goku recovered from his grandpa's death...
