More than just a weakling.

Chapter 7: Training with weights

Yesterday was your first official victory, the next goal on your list was learn about Ki. Today's training was pto practice with weighted clothing. Videl and you waited for Bulma to appear. Suddenly a ship appeared out of no where and landed in Hercule's yard. "Woah!" You said preparing for some kind of assault. That was until you saw Bulma in the window driving.

After the ship landed. Bulma walked out and waved for you guys to come inside the ship. Both Videl and you looked at each other and nodded. Now making your way into the ship. Inside was like a training wonderland. Weights were set up on the wall. Punching bag machines lined up on the other side. A small room was off to the side that seemed little strange for an empty room..... focusing back on the main room. You finally different articles of clothing. "Uh neat." You said as you picked up a brace for your arm. Upon picking it up the brace was way heavier than it looks. "I see you found some the weighted clothing I made." Bulma said as she appeared behind you. "Oh hey Bulma." You greeted. Bulma smiled greeting you. "So what do you think?" Bulma asked. "I made these clothes so you could also add them when you put weights in your jumpsuit." Bulma explained. "It's an awesome idea." Videl looked worried. "Remember Y/n, don't push yourself too far." Videl reminded you. "Don't sweat it Videl, I can handle a little bit of weight." You reassured her. Videl still didn't look convinced. "So what's the first thing I need to do?" You asked Bulma. "Simple, we need to insert some weight in your jumpsuit." Bulma grabbed Videl and took her to the other side with the weights. "Now you stay there, mister." Bulma said to you. After a few minutes passed. Bulma and Videl appeared with a few plates in their hands. "Now hold still." Bulma commanded. By staying still, you see Bulma and Videl put weights in your jumpsuit. Two plates in each arm and leg, and four big plates in your chest area. "Now try moving around." Bulma said, asking you to move. Taking a few steps wasn't hard, but you did move a bit slower then your usual self. "Too easy." You commented. "Hmm, try doing a few laps around the ship." Bulma told you. You ran outside leaving Bulma and Videl alone, with each other.

"Sooo..." Bulma said grabbing Videl's attention. "You like Y/n. Don't you?" Bulma accused Videl. Video's face turned red with embarrassment. "W-w-what are you talking about?" Videl stuffered out. "Nice try, I know hints that you like him." Bulma grinned at Videl. "First off, you get jealous every time Y/n compliments me. Second off, you blush whenever he gives you compliments. And finall-" Videl interrupted Bulma. "Alright, I get the point...." Videl sighed. "It's true I love Y/n, I've always have since we were young." Videl blushed. "I'm afraid to tell him...." Bulma patted Videl's back. "It's alright, your secret is safe with me. Besides you have plenty time to confess to him." Videl looked surprised at Bulma. "So does that mean your not trying to date him?" Bulma laughed. "Are you kidding me? Y/n is only a teenager, and I'm an adult." Videl sighed in relief. "But it will be a different story in a few years..." Bulma admitted. "After Y/n gets older and he's still single, then he's fair game." Videl glared at Bulma. "Stay away from my Y/n!" Videl yelled at Bulma. Videl blushed a bit, realizing she called Y/n hers. "The clock is ticking!" Bulma shot back at Videl. Both girls glared at each other.

This is around the time you got back from doing a few laps. "Hey guys, I'm back!" Both girls stop glaring at each other. "So how are the weights?" Bulma asked you. "I think I can handle a little bit more." You admitted to Bulma. "Perfect~" Bulma sang. "Lets try some more clothing then~" Bulma lead you to back to the side of the ship with the weighted clothing. "Hmmm, try this." Bulma said as she pointed to some braces. "I would grab them but I don't think I can pick them up." Bulma admitted to you. "I got it." You pick up one braces and clamp it on your right arm and then you do the same with the left arm. "Is it not too much?" Bulma asked feeling your developing muscles in your arm. This act obviously made Videl very jealous. "Don't worry, I can handle this pressure." You told Bulma. "But do you have any weighted leg braces, or anything for my feet?" You asked her. "Oh, I know the perfect thing." Bulma said running off to the back. "What size do you wear?" You heard Bulma ask you the other room. "I wear (insert your shoe size)!" You shouted to make sure she heard you. After hearing some rattling and rustling sounds, Bulma appeared with some boots. "What are those?" You asked her. "Introducing my latest invention!" Bulma presented. "Adjustable weighted boots! I originally made them for Goku and Vegeta... But that was before Vegeta starting even more of a jerk to me." Bulma was angry for a split second and than smiled at you. "But I'm so glad you will be the first one to try them instead~" Removing your shoes, you grab the pair of boots and place them on your feet. "This so cool! Thanks Bulma!" You said to Bulma admiring her invention. "You're welcome. Here let me show you how to adjust the weight." Bulma said, reaching down to your feet. Bulma adjusted a dial, and then pushed a button. After that the boots felt heavier then before. "Now, that's a lot better." You tried to kick with boots, kicking with only some  difficulty. "This feels about the right amount of weight I need." You told Bulma. "That's good to hear and here I thought we might have to tie the ship to you for a workout." Bulma joked. "Now that you mention it, I may have to try that later." You said joking back. Videl walked up to you. "So how is it?" Videl said asking about the boots. "Not too bad but I'm going to need time to adjust to the new added weight." You answered Videl. "Just don't hurt yourself, Ok?" You smiled at Videl. "Don't worry, this will be a breeze!"

After getting your weights, you decide to train while chatting with Videl and Bulma. After a few hours of training , your body gets used to the added weight. "I can used to training like this." You to the girls while doing push ups. "I think you're going to need a shower and wash for those clothes after this." Videl joked as she playfully held her nose. "I'm going to a few more workouts and then I'll call it a day." Both girls nodded and continued to watch you train. After doing pushups, you take a stance and strike the air. Performing finger jabs, punching, and kicks strikes. Mixing in a vanish every now and then. "Whew, that's what I call a serious workout." You breathe out. Looking outside, you see it's already night time. "Time really does fly." You thought to yourself. Calling in for the night, Bulma told you take your weights so she can clean them. You remove all the weights except for the plates in your track suit. "You can keep the plates, I'm sure you can keep track of them. I'll be back tomorrow, for even more surprises." She winked at you. "Alright, have a good night Bulma." You said to her as you put back on your boots and leave the ship with Videl. Both of you watch the ship take off.

"Today was an awesome day of training." You told Videl. "I'm glad you enjoyed it Y/n." Videl said with a smile. "From today on, it will only get better." Upon hearing this made you even more excited. "Awesome! I'm going to pass the Z fighters in no time!" Videl only chuckled at your determination. "If anyone can, it will be you." Videl blushed while looking at you. "I still need to train using Ki..." You thought to yourself. "I got distracted by training with weights, that I forgot about it. I'll worry about it later, right now I need to focusing on my weighted training. After that Videl and you went inside to rest for the next training day.

(Me again, I want to thank everyone again for their comments and support for the story. I was originally going to the Ki training chapter today but I decided to do weight training instead. I'll try to work on adding ki into the training soon. Thanks for reading again! More chapter are coming soon.)
