"Talking"

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So, like, after the alliance fell apart and all the ugly aliens showed up, it was, like, super scary! Me and Nam got captured by this stupid purple guy!"

This might be hard.

Gray rubbed his temples as he listened to the air-headed girl speak, "Alliance? Can you start from earlier on?"

"Oh! First, I should explain how the planet used to be!" Ranfan said, remembering that Gray was an alien and that she would have to be more detailed.

"Until a few years ago, most of the Earth was under King Furry!" She started to explain,

I forgot his name was King Furry. That has a different meaning now then it did when Toriyama came up with it.

"He's this cute doggy guy! He commanded the Earth's Military, which was officially named the King's Graucamole or something-"

"King's Guard," Gray supplied.

Why do I know more than she does?

"Oh, yeah! That! The five major cities, called East, West, North, South, and Central city, all followed him. Aside from a few small towns here and there, the entire world accepted him as King, except for..."

Ranfan clenched her fist, staring at the floor. The two of them sat a few feet from each other, having sat down in chairs that their former captors had used.

"The Red Ribbon Army?" Gray asked, though he already knew the answer.

"Yeah," She sighed, the bimbo girl's face turning serious for a moment, "I don't know how long they've been around. I remember when I was a kid, my parents mentioned them, so it's been at least a decade. For a while, they were spoken about as a legend, with some people saying that even the King's Guard couldn't take them down."

"But, really," She continued, looking up and locking eyes with Gray, "They weren't very strong, for a while at least. They were a private army owned by a rich guy called Commander Red. They were mostly full of outdated military equipment, and wouldn't be able to hold a candle to the King's Guard. But, that changed when they hired a scientist named Dr. Gero."

The man who created the Androids. I don't like where this is heading. Please don't make me fight Cell already, you shitty game.

"He started creating robots that could rival tanks. Then, they evolved to the point where they could shrug off tank missiles like they were nothing," The purple-haired woman continued, "They were so powerful that the Red Ribbon Army could do whatever they wanted. They started invading villages and towns, looking for the dragon balls."

"The dragon balls?" Gray asked, faking confusion so that the woman would elaborate.

This world is so fucked already, I need to confirm information whenever I can. King Vegeta said they could grant any wish, but I'd like to make sure they're the same dragon balls I know from the show.

"Um, the dragon balls," Ranfan's face looked a bit more hesitant as she spoke, "I've never seen them, but they're supposedly a group of balls that can be gathered to summon a huge dragon! The legend says that the dragon can grant any wish. I've never seen them used, but I've heard Muten Roshi, an old martial arts guy, say that the legend is real!"

Gray nodded, and the girl continued, "I don't know how the Red Ribbon Army knew they were real, but they invaded a bunch of villages and towns looking for them. The King tried to ignore them but finally did something when they invaded East City. He tried to retake the city but was beaten pretty badly. So, he looked toward martial artists for help."
