The Phantom of Equis

“Goku wake up it's time for training!” Roshi yelled from downstairs.

Kronos woke up with yawn, her hair an absolute mess. As she tried to get up Goku snuggled up even closer,with a slight whine his tail wrapping around her tail harder.

Kronos giggled and then whispered into the young boy’s ear, “Goku breakfast if ready,”

Goku shot up and looked around drooling, “W-where!?”

Kronos burst into a fit of giggles, falling over laughing for a bit before getting up her legs in lotus position and saying, “No where, tell you what you get your mourning training done, and big sis will have a big breakfast ready, for you, especially since you don’t get anything to eat last night,” She said with a grin.

Goku dashed down stairs and Kronos could hear him begging to start training.

Kronos shook her head and got dressed before walking down stairs, and going into the bathroom ,she looked into the mirror and sighed, she got undressed and started up the shower stepping and took a short shower, wrapping herself up in a towel, assuming that she would be alone in the house giving her time to dry off, before she got breakfast ready. Unfortunately Master Roshi had heard the shower being started and was waiting for her like the pervert he was.

“Enjoy yourself?” Roshi said his glasses shining white ,scaring the shit out of Kronos and causing her to drop the towel she was covering herself with.

Roshi took a quick picture and booked it before Kronos realized what happened.

“ROSHI!!!” Kronos said wrapping the towel around herself again, grabbing a frying pan from the kitchen and chasing the old pervert outside, her face a redder than a tomato.

Roshi caclked madly as he dashed away into the distance.

Kronos grumbled in annoyance, not wanting to chase after for fear someone would see her. She walked back in and decided just power up to her gold haired form to heat herself up, she then got dressed and went hunting for breakfast. She just ended up making what she did yesterday, but with more meat,as she didn’t have anything else to cook.A couple of hours later, Goku dashed through door smelling the food and sitting down at the table,where the food was waiting, in excitement. He made a grab for a piece of meat with the chopsticks on the table, only to get a firm slap on the hand from Kronos.

“We have to wait for Krill, and the pervert,” Kronos scolded.

Goku pouted as Krillin and Roshi walked in, Roshi grinning at Kronos. As Roshi sat down he looked straight at Kronos with a shit eating grin.

“Good to know the curtains match the drapes,” Roshi cackled.

Kronos looked at him in a rage ,”Motherfucker,”

Goku perked up and asked, “Motherfucker can you pass the salt?”

Everyone looked at Goku in shock.

“What that’s his nickname right?” Goku asked in confusion.

“No sweetie, that was a insult,” Kronos said glaring at Roshi.

“Don’t glare at me, your the one who taught it to him,” Roshi shrugged.

Kronos shot him a look and stormed out of the house in frustration.

“Wait aren't you going to ea-” Roshi aske Kronos slamming the door cutting him off. He then noticed that Goku was glaring at him.

“What?” Roshi asked.

“You upset big sis,” Goku said giving him a dirty look before starting to eat.

Roshi shook his head, before he too began to eat, Krillin had been silent this entire time he finished eating his fill and jumped up running outside.

“Where are you going Krillin?” Roshi asked the young boy.

“There’s something I need to do,” Krillin said determined look.

Krillin dashed away and found Kronos punching into a slab of rock that shattered under her blows, She looked pissed as she began to kick and punch the air rapidly.

“Um Miss Kronos,” Krillin piped up holding a piece of a paper up to her.

She turned to the boy in a rage, calming down when she saw him.

“Oh hey Krill, what are doing here sweetie, shouldn’t you be eating?” Kronos asked looking worried.

“I already finished, I just wanted to give you this, I took it off Master Roshi when he wasn’t looking,” Krillin said holding it out.

Kronos cocked her in curiosity, and took the paper, she took the paper and looked at before looking at the young boy who was blushing a bit, Kronos gave him a little kiss on his forehead before ripping up the picture.

“Thanks for getting back from him Krill,” Kronos said with a warm smile.

“Y-your welcome,” Krillin said his face now a deep shade of red.

Kronos giggled, knowing exactly why he was blushing, “Now then you get back to training, and so will I m’kay?”

Krillin nodded furiously dashing away. Kronos shook her head and went back to training. For the next eight months,Kronos trained between cooking meals and meditating, she hadn’t yet broken through the wall to the next level, that she knew in her gut existed. And then one morning Goku woke up before her and shook her awake.

“Sis today's the day!” Goku said with excitement as she woke up with a groan, he put on the fifty pound purple turtle shell he had been instructed to wear everyday,as well as his orange gi.

“What day, what are we doing,” Kronos groaned as she got up groggily, her shirt falling of left shoulder, almost completely revealing her left breast.

“The tournament is today!” Goku squealed.

“Oh cool, I’m gonna take a shower so you guys go on ahead of me,” Kronos yawned.

Goku nodded headed down stairs. After making sure they were gone, Kronos walked downstairs and took a quick shower, she powered up to dry off and got dressed. She waited till Goku’s ki signature had stopped moving,this took several hours, to instant transmission right in front of them. Everyone jumped back in surprise and Goku looked her after she took her fingers off her forehead. Goku frowned and put two fingers to his head as everyone else recovered.

“I was expecting you to fly here, but if you can teleport that works too,” Roshi said with a nod.

“Yea I just concentrate on someone's ki signature and bam I can teleport to them,” Kronos said with a shrug as Goku suddenly appeared behind her.

“Hey I figured it out!” Goku said with a big smile.

“Whoa that was fast,”Kronos said looking very impressed.

“It wasn’t that hard,” Goku shrugged.

“Yes I've noticed that Goku is quite the fast learner,” Roshi said with thoughtful nod.

“Welp guess we should head to the tournament stage,” Kronos said giving Goku a curious look.

Goku was currently enjoying his new move, teleporting all over the place.

Goku than suddenly said happily, “BULMA!” He disappeared suddenly and Kronos grabbed Roshi and Krillin before disappearing awell.

They reappeared in front Goku who was giving Bulma a hug, with the pigman watching near them. He caught sight of Kronos and walked up to her.

“Hi, um we weren’t formly introduced when you saved us from Goku,” He said with a friendly smile holding his hand out.

“Oh right ,that was a long time ago, names Kronos, yours?” Kronos asked shaking his hand.

“Oolong! Nice to meet you!” Oolong said with a nod.

“Cool,” Kronos said looking around and feeling the ki of everyone there, before sighing in disappointment.

“What’s wrong?” Oolong asked giving her a worried look.

“I was hoping there would be someone here strong enough to challenge me,but everyone here is too weak, oh well at least I can watch Ka fight, wonder how strong he’s gotten,” Kronos said shaking her head.

“Ka?” Oolong asked.

“Ya?” Goku asked turning to Oolong.

“Wait why does she calls you Ka Goku?” Oolong asked giving Goku a look that said”that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard”.

“Its my nickname,” Goku said happily.

“Ok but why though?” Oolong asked.

“Because Ku sounds too much like coo, so I was like ‘why not just call him ka?’” Kronos said with a nod.

“Ok then,” Oolong said with shrug.

“Hey Kronos you pop in and you don’t so much as give me a hello, come on sister throw me a bone here,” Bulma laughed as she walked up to Kronos.

Kronos rolled her eyes before saying, “Hey Bulma you look like your doing good for yourself,”

Bulma nodded and said, “Yea I forgot to ask you how you do that verse hopping thing,”

“Magic,” Kronos shrugged.

Bulma didn’t to seem like that answer but accepted it with a pout.

“Anyways I'm going to go find some seats or something,” Kronos said walking off.

She flew off and sat down in the stands, before taking a book out and waiting for the event to start. It took awhile but eventually the main matches began. Kronos looked on in boredom as several of the matches were just normal fighters. Eventually it was Krillin's turn, and he was up against a giant who didn’t like he knew what hygiene was. Krillin tried to defend against the giant’s attack but his opponent but his hand in his armpit, and threw a punch. The smell caused Krillian to drop his guard in disgust, before being thrown back.

Kronos jumped up and shouted, “Krillin you don’t have a nose it’s all in your head,”

Krillin looked up at her, his eyes widening with the realization.

He gave Kronos a confident smile and said, “Thanks Ms. Kronos!” Krillin then quickly defeated him by drop kicking him out of the ring. Krillin looked up Kronos with a big smile. Kronos gave him a nod of approval. Next up was a old man with white hair and a black gi, with the young man, Bulma had gone off with eight months ago. The young man unleashed a flurry of blow on the old man, who dodged each blow effortlessly. Kronos looked on now very intrested.

“Huh strong for and old man,” Kronos muttered.

“There you are!” Bulma said as she and Oolong sat next to Kronos, the flying cat from eight month sat next to them as well.

“Oh your the lady that turned into a giant ape with Goku, awhile back,Im Puar, what’s your name,” The cat asked floating up to Kronos.

“Kronos,” The purple haired woman said without taking her eyes off the fight.

“Whoa, looks like Yamcha’s having a tough time with that old man,” Bulma said looking worried.

“Hmph, yea Roshi is stronger than I gave him credit him for,” Kronos nodded.

“ROSHI!?” They all said in shock.

“He must have joined the tournament to test Goku and Krillin,” Kronos said with a sigh.

“That makes sense,” Bulma said thoughtfully, “They might hold back if if they know it's Roshi,”

“Yea too bad Goku has already figured it out,” Kronos said pointing to Goku who was talking to Krilian excitedly from the sidelines, prompting Krillin to look at Roshi in shock as the old man hit the air with a enough force to kick Yamcha out of the ring. Yamcha looked at the old man in shock before walking to where he had spotted Bulma and gang waiting.

“Hey Kronos, your a fighter right?” Yamcha asked.

Kronos nodded, “I assume you figured it out as well,”

“So it is Master Roshi, whoa he’s really strong!” Yamcha said looking impressed.

“For a human,” Kronos shrugged.

“Yea I bet your a lot stronger than any of us, that’s why your not in the tournament right?” Yamcha asked.

Kronos nodded and watched as a tall man and a purple haired woman walked onto the arena, Kronos immediately lost interest.

“So what have you been doing lately?” Yamcha asked noticing that Kronos looked bored, and being the friendly guy he is decided to make some small talk.

“Cooking meals for Roshi, and his students ,when I'm not training,” Kronos said nonchalantly.

“The path of training never ends!” Yamcha laughed.

“Yep,” Kronos said with a nod and a chuckle.

“Well the next fight is starting soon,” Yamcha noted.

“I can’t believe that woman tried to use stripping to giver her the win!” Bulma said with a disgusted look.

“Looks like Goku is up next,” Kronos said as the young boy walked up onto the stage, and a large dragon man with a blue smooth skin on its back, and a green underbelly.

“Who do you think is gonna win?” Yamcha asked.

“Goku obviously,” Kronos said watching as Goku dodged the Dragon’s blue energy which tried to form a big pink goo around him, but failed as he flew up into the air.

“Whoa he can fly?” Yamcha said in surprise.

“Yea I'll show you later if you’d like,” Kronos offered.

“Oh thanks,” Yamcha said with nod.

“Don’t mention it,” Kronos said shrugging it off as Goku knocked the dragon man out of the ring with a single punch.

“Whoa Goku’s gotten a lot stronger eh?” Yamcha asked.

“Yea, guess that training with Master Roshi is paying off,” Kronos nodded.

“Yea that would do it,” Yamcha said with a laugh.

“I wonder how strong Goku really is?” Bulma asked.

“Eh I'd say around the same level as Roshi, maybe a bit weaker, but still power isn’t everything,” Kronos said looking at Goku with interest, Goku looked up to his big sister with hopeful eyes that asked “Did I do good?”

Kronos gave him a silent nod, putting a smile on the young boys face, as he walked back to the sidelines. It was Krillin’s turn as he walked up to face a disguised Master Roshi. Krillin charged forward unleashing a flurry of blows, which Roshi dodged quickly.

“Hmm I actually had to dodge those,” Roshi said looking impressed, before unleashing a barrage of his own, catching Krilian off guard.

Krillin got hit in the face sending him sliding away almost to the edge, Krillin looked surprised, but hardened his face with determination and the both clashed rapidly around the stage.

“Whoa, I can’t even keep up with them!” Yamcha said in shock.

“Wait you can’t see them?” Kronos asked in surprise.

“You can?” Yamcha asked.

Kronos nodded and was about to say something when the announcer, a tall man with blonde hair, sunglasses, and a black tuxedo, said, “Um what just happened?”

“Ah yes, I assume we were too fast for you to see us,” Roshi said nodding in understanding.

They then recreated their clash but slower, so the audience would be out of the loop.

“Okay now we will continue the fight!” Roshi said.

“I guess that means it's time for my secret weapon!” Krillin said making everyone look at him in surprise, Krillian then took out a pair of black panites and threw out the ring, “Jackie Chan I want you to have those!”

“Wait where did he get those” Yamcha asked before noticing that Kronos was surrounded in a dark aura.

“Those...are mine,” Kronos said in a dark tone.

“Kronos don’t do anything stupid, I’m sure he didn’t mean to embarrass you like that! I mean no one even knows it's yours!” Bulma said looking a bit panicked.

“Oh don’t worry I going to give him a piece of my mind when this fight is over!” Kronos growled.

Everyone scooted away from her as she glared down at Krillin as Roshi managed to stop himself from touching the ground, by using the kamehameha to propel himself back onto the stage. Everyone ,except Bulma and company, were completely caught off guard by this, looking on in amazement.

“So you can use that move too,” Krillin said.

“Indeed, I trained with Master Roshi a long time ago,and now I will end this fight” Roshi lied convincingly.

This made Krillin angry so he charged forward and threw a punch at Roshi, but Roshi had moved so fast he had left a afterimage that Krillin punched through it without realizing it was a after image, his surprise gave Roshi the opening he needed to punch him out of the ring.

“Jackie Chan is the victor,” The announcer shouted causing the crowd to cheer.

Krillin walked dejectedly over to where Bulma and company where waiting.

“Chin up, kid you did good, you can’t blame yourself for losing to Master Roshi,” Yamcha said giving Krillin a pat.

Krillin looked at Yamcha in surprise, “Wait that was Master Roshi but he sa-”

“He lied, obviously I think he’s doing this to test you two,” Kronos said cutting him off.

Krillin’s eyes widened in surprise before he looked down dejectedly, “Guess I failed huh?”

“Can’t say,” Kronos said shaking her head, “Oh and by the way,”

Krillin looked up at her expectantly, before Kronos smacked him upside his head.

“Ow!” Krillin said holding his head in pain.

“THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR TAKING MY UNDERWEAR YOU LITTlE SHIT!!!” Kronos shouted at him.

“S-sorry, I thought they might be useful if I were to fight a pervy fighter,” Krillin said, “When Goku told me It was master Roshi I decided to use them against him,”

Kronos glared at him, turning around with a huff, before seeing Roshi stashing the panites into his pocket, looking straight at Kronos with a shit eating grin, that made her blood boil.

The next fight was Goku versus the tall man from before. They began trading blows, the man being able to keep Goku at bay with his superior skill, Goku then spinned into a tornado trying to knock the man out of the ring. The man however dodged his attacks nimbly, and when Goku became dizzy from the attack, he then jumped up into the high into the air and cross arms as the charged downward straight towards Goku, hitting him in his neck and sending him to the ground.

The man stood up and declared, “No man can awake sooner than ten days after that attack, start the count,”

The announcer looked at him in surprise before stampering out, “One, Two, Thr- He’s getting up!”

The man looks over to Goku, who is standing up grinning ear to ear.

“Very well then once more!” The man said jumpin into the air.

Goku laughed and flew into the air before punching him out the ring with several rapid blows.

“Goku wins!” The announcer declares.

The man gets up and with a heavy heart says, “Well done Son Goku, I wish you best of luck,”

“Thanks, your pretty strong, I hope to fight you again someday,” Goku said with a big grin.

“Thank you for you kindness, I bid you farewell,” The man said leaving the ring, and walking off.

Goku then walked off the ring to wait for the last match.

“We’re going to take a commercial break before the final match!” The announcer said prompting the audience to start talking among themselves.

“I wonder if Goku could beat Roshi?” Krillin asked.

“Probably not,” Kronos said with a shrug.

“Well aren’t you just a ball of sunshine, have some faith would you?” Bulma said glaring at her.

“You go on with your faith, I'll look at the facts,” Kronos said bluntly, “Roshi is about the same strength as Goku, but is by far a more skilled and experienced fighter,”

“She has a point,” Yamcha said Krillin also nodding.

“Hmph well I believe in Goku,” Bulma said shooting Kronos a glare.

Kronos and watched as Goku and Roshi taunted each other before they both fired a Kamehameha attack, the beams colliding for a minutes before they both fizzled, Goku then charged forward, Roshi quickly made two afterimages, he hit both not realizing that Roshi had sneaked up behind him and being kicked into the wall. Goku jumped back up and made three afterimages, Roshi attacked both of the quickly and then the third expecting it to be Goku, but was caught off guard when Goku attacked him from above slamming him to the ground.

“Very well then, I'll have to use the drunken fist!” Roshi said suddenly acting very drunk.

This caught Goku off guard, but he charged forward anyways Roshi wide motion dodging him easily. Goku growls and suddenly grows a big grin, as he started acting like a monkey, they dodged each other attacks as they danced around each other, Goku eventual was able to trip Roshi up with his tail, and slam him into the ground. Goku dashed to capitalize on this opening, but Roshi jumped back and seemed to be preparing a kamehameha, but suddenly he started using several hand motions muttering something, Goku suddenly fell asleep and plopped onto the stage.

“Start the count,” Roshi said calmly turning back to the sleeping boy.

The Announcer nodded said, “one...two...three,”

“Come on wake up Ka,” Kronos muttered gritting her teeth.

“Four...Five...Six-”

Goku suddenly jumped up and yelled, “Paper!” While balling up his fist.

Roshi punched forward with the hand motion for scissors, but was shocked when Goku punched him in the face hurting his eyes with the blow.

“That was dirty! Calling out Paper, when you we’re using Rock, you made a fool out of me!” Roshi said getting angry before launching a beam of elastic energy, that froze Goku place.

“Only your grandfather ,Gohan, was ever able to break out of this attack, give up Goku,” Roshi said with a determined look.

Goku struggled in the grasp of the attack, for about a minute before he looked like he was about to give, he looked up the sky was darkened as it was getting closer to night, but what caught his attention was the full moon above, his eyes glowed red as he let out a snarl, growing into a giant ape and letting out a roar that sent the audience running and screaming. Kronos flared up her purple aura and charged at Goku, taking him out with a solid punch to gut and reverting him to his base form.

“Wow an amazing victory for are surprise challenger,” The announcer said, “Who would have seen this coming!”

The crowd cheered as they returned to their seats in suspense.

Kronos looked annoyed by the attention she was getting and started to walk toward the edge of the stage.

“Wait,at least give them a show, after all you took out my opponent,you might as well treat me to a fight,” Roshi called out to her.

Kronos stopped and looked over her shoulder at him, sighing and turned to him, taking a fighting pose, prompting the crowd to cheer.

Roshi suddenly buffed and charged a kamehameha, he launched a much bigger beam of blue energy right at Kronos, prompting her to fire a yellow beam of energy cutting through the attack and almost hitting Roshi.Roshi dashed forward and attacked Kronos hitting her afterimage, she then appeared behind him and kicked him out of the ring. By this time Goku had woken up and charged his big sister, not noticing he was completely naked. She sidestepped his attack and with a chop to the neck knocked him out again. She brought out her cloak, that she had been keeping in her hammerspace, and wrapped Goku in it.

“Hmph well done your quite strong,” Rosh said walking up to her.

“And the winner of the twenty first world martial arts tournament is,” The announcer then leaned in to and asked, “Um what’s your name Ma’am,”

“Kronos,” She said as she rocked Goku in her arms,causing the young to cuddle up to her happily.

“Son Kronos!” The announcer shouted.

“Son?” Kronos asked raising an eyebrow.

“Goku’s your son right?” The announcer asked.

“What!? No that's weird,” Kronos said taking a step back.

“It would be weird if he wasn’t ,I mean you are carrying him like he’s you kid,” The announcer said raising an eyebrow.

“Im his sister,” Kronos said clarified.

“Oh okay,” The announcer said nodding in understanding and handing her the check for the prize money..

“Anyways I'm leaving, bye,” Kronos said flying off with Goku, and heading to where the group was waiting.

“Kronos over here!” Krillin said waving her down.

Kronos touched down and said holding up the check, “Let’s go get some dinner, my treat,”

Goku suddenly woke up excitedly and grabbed onto Kronos saying, “I'm so hungry, lets go now!”

Everyone laughed, Roshi having left to change not knowing that everyone knows who he really was.

They waited for Roshi to come back. And as the old man walked up to them Kronos walked up to him with a smirk.

“Sorry about stealing the win from you Jackie Chun, oh Im sorry ,Roshi,” Kronos said with a big grin.

Roshi laughed and said, “I suppose it wasn’t that good of a disguise, anyways I did what I planned to,”

“To test Goku and Krillin,” Kronos said with a smirk.

“Not even close,” Roshi said shaking his head.

“WHAT!?” Everyone asked in shock.

“I had no doubt in my students ability to win the tournament, in fact that’s what I was afraid off, I did this to teach them that there is alway a bigger fish, and you must always train to prepare for a the eventually fight with a stronger opponent,” Roshi said.

Kronos thought about what he said for a second before nodding and saying, “Funny I thought with the power I've gotten, I would be able to take it easy on my training,but you made a good point, thanks Roshi,”

“Your very welcome,” Roshi said with a nod and a smile.

“Oh and I almost forgot,” Kronos said suddenly with a sweet smile, handing Goku a spare Gi she had packed for him and giving Bulma that check she had one. She suddenly turned to Roshi with a glare.

“Give me back my panites you pervert!” Kronos yelled chasing after Roshi who had saw this coming and had booked it.

“Run Master Roshi, big sis is gonna kill you!” Goku said watching as Kronos chased after the old man, Roshi laughing his head off as they ran.
