Shota, the wandering merchant, was crossing the Land of Korin when he was attacked by a monster! He survived but while fleeing he dropped all his goods and now can't get them back. Please guide through the Land of Korin safely and help him retrieve his lost goods.


A strong gust of wind picked up violently, tossing and turning the air around Korin's Tower in an uncontrollable manner. The extreme gust knocked harshly against Vegeta's body and forced his feet from the holds they previously secured. The Prince grunted as the muscles in his arms tightened, considering he was now hanging on by only the grips his hands clenched. Mother Nature continued to whip him around relentlessly as if trying to pry him from the side of that massive construct. Vegeta was unwilling to surrender to the elements and continued to struggle on, finally managing to hook another foot against the wall. Hand over hand, he climbed and reclaimed the path of his ascent.

As part of his training on Earth, Vegeta troubled him self with the task of climbing immortal cat's tower using nothing but his brutish strength and dexterity. He also hoped Korin would be generous enough to supply him with a spare senzu bean for his troubles, although he expected nothing to come of his wish.

Even with the hollow whistling of wind storming his ears, he managed to pick up a scream coming from far, far below. Vegeta pulled his body tight to the tower to reduce the power of the billowing wind and to give him enough time to survey where the sound came from. He witnessed some sort of monstrosity leaping from a nearby forested area in pursuit of a traveling merchant. The wanderer was moving quickly despite his short and stocky stature but the lingering thought of death always proved to be a great motivator. Judging by the distance between the beast and the traveler, the fleeing man would elude the beast but it appeared he was losing a large supply of his stock in process.

How unfortunate for the salesman but highly beneficial for the bandit owners of the beast that followed after, also coming from the confines of the forest to pick up any belongings that were dropped.

Vegeta looked up and could see he was near the top of the tower. He would be able to reach the summit and Korin in less than twenty minutes if he kept up a solid pace but in that amount of time the bandits would be scattered with the merchant's goods. The Prince growled and pushed off from the wall, letting loose his hands to fall weightlessly to his sides. The cruel wind caught his body and worked along with gravity to throw it around as he fell towards the earth below.

The ground was rapidly approaching Vegeta and welcomed the broken bones he would suffer if they would embrace. The proud Saiyan kicked his legs at the last minute and angled away from the grass beneath to face the wandering merchant who raced for the tower. Amassing energy gathered within Vegeta before it exploded around him in a roaring aura of ki, blasting him forward into flight and narrowly evading the ground. He stormed towards the merchant like a fired bullet and grabbed him by the collar of his clothing as he raced by him.

The merchant yelped as he was apprehended by an unknown force. He was only able to see a pair of bold white and gold plated boots in front of him as he was dragged through the air, completely back tracking the run he just made.

The bandit monster lifted its head at the oncoming sound of Vegeta's flaring energy, bearing a puzzled look on his face as it saw a pair of figures nearing fast. He noticed the figure lifting a white gloved hand to point a single finger at him. Was he singling the beast out of the group of bandits?

Vegeta's pointed finger began to glow with supplied ki until sufficient energy was gathered. Several energy beams shot toward the confused monster and the now fleeing bandits. Most of the blasts missed the scattering group but a single dodonpa ray caught an older bandit in the back, blowing him off of his feet and sending him face first into the ground.

The merchant skid across the grass and fell into a roll after Vegeta released him. The Saiyan was still soaring at a high speed towards the bulky sasquatch-esque beast. Vegeta's scream was matched by the monster's roar just before he collided with the creature, driving his shoulder deep into its abdomen and tackling it down. The beast flailed and smashed his enormous paws against the Prince, often raking his clothing and flesh with sharp claws.

Vegeta exchanged blows with the monster, pummeling quick fists into its ribcage and stomach and working to weaken the creature. He brought his palms together and laced his fingers into a joined fist to bring a powerful hammerblow to the hairy beast's tender breadbasket. The yeti yelped and gasped for breath, appearing to have the wind forced out of him by the stronger fighter.

The Saiyan leapt to his feet and came to stand on the raspy beast's chest. He took a step forward and pressed the sole of his boot into the creature's face, now balancing on just that single, heavy foot. His lifted leg was sharply drawn down to drive the other boot into the side of the monster's head, immediately knocking him unconscious and rendering him useless for the rest of the fight.

With their big hitter out of the picture, the bandits were only left with three standing. The ones left standing had long ago escaped the battle and returned to the lush, green forest from which they came. They sought sanctuary and hiding in the dense growth of trees and brush obviously unaware that Vegeta had other means of tracking the bandits in lieu of sight. It wasn't beneath the Prince of all Saiyans to level the entire forest just to catch his prey. All in the pursuit of some awkward justice he believed he was dealing.

Vegeta doubled back from the forest's edge to retrieve the wandering merchant. He didn't want to leave the helpless fool to be pulverized by the sasquatch if he were to wake up. "What's your name, old man? What are you doing out this far, anyway?" The Prince didn't address the wanderer with his eyes, instead keeping them locked on the forest he was flying back to.

"I'm Shota, a very prestigious merchant," said the feeble man as the tips of his feet dragged along the ground beneath him. "I was traveling through the Land of Korin when I decided to stop by Korin's tower and replenish my stash of Senzu Beans. I'm down to my last one." Shota felt over the near empty pouch adorning his belt and frowned, emphasizing the disappointment in his current stock. "That is when I was attacked by the monster and ended up losing a lot of my cargo. Those stupid bandits grabbed just about everything I dropped!"

It was like a light bulb went off in the merchant's head, flicking on a light behind his eyes. "Say, I don't have much to offer but if you would help me get back my missing merchandise, I could make it worth your while." Shota looked up to the stern face of Vegeta which didn't sway one way or the other to his offer. He began to frown again at the realization he might not get his items back.

After a few long moments, Vegeta finally spoke up in response to the request.

"For your last Senzu Bean, I will get you all of your stuff back and thrash the bandits who took it."

Shota mumbled quietly as he thought over the returned proposition. He quickly came to the conclusion that the loss of the majority of his merchandise was worse than the loss of his last Senzu Bean. "I agree but you really have to beat them good."

After cruising into the forest, Vegeta found signs of where the bandits had ran off to in the form of footprints, dropped items and a broken path of bushes and snapped sticks. Shota was set down to the ground near few pieces of inventory laid and allowed him to gather the articles that had been misplaced. Vegeta heard a clumsy rustling in the bushes ten yards ahead and immediately knew it was one of the bandits hoping he would have passed him by already.

"Grab your things and stay out of sight. Stay out of my way and you'll make it out of this unharmed." And with that, the Prince silently hovered over to the shrubbery that offered little concealment for the bulky bandit. Most of the half ton scrub was hanging out from the foliage. It was actually a pretty pathetic sight.

"Next time, try finding a more accommodating hiding place, punk."

The brigand let loose a wild grunt and nearly jumped to his feet, moving unbelievably fast for a man of his size. Vegeta was there to greet him as he stood, welcoming him with a fierce fist, that swung with the force of a wrecking ball, across his oversized, dog like face. It only took that single blow to knock the brute off of his feet again, falling into unconsciousness before he ever hit the weed ensnared ground.

"Check him for any more of your items. I'll look for the remaining two."

Vegeta visualized the two as they ran off after his encounter with the yeti monster. The pair of bandits were scrawny and slightly hunchbacked yet they appeared very agile. Despite be quicker than the average fighter, they were only human and vastly inferior to the might and speed of a Saiyan.

He followed the tracks they left the best he could but he wasn't a professional tracker, he was a warrior. Just when he was about to give up searching for those who fled, he heard the cracking of a branch above him. Vegeta twisted upon his heel and looked up into the forest's canopy only to find a pair of bandits leaping for him, each of them bearing a dull and rusty cutlass.

The Prince leapt back as the two bandits descended in blade swinging fury. As they hit the ground, their swords crossed in a shout of roughly clanging metal resulting in the shedding of sheeted rust. At once, the two bandits grinned in unison, both glaring intently on Vegeta as their target for ruining their easy picking. It was then that the Saiyan realized these two remaining bandits were identical to each other in appearance.

"Twins? The Earth is ugly enough with only one of you; having two of you is just painful." To his own words, Vegeta cracked an alarming grin as well.

The brothers scowled and jumped toward Vegeta, both raising their swords above their heads in preparation of another attack. The Prince would have to admit they were pretty fast but they were absolutely nothing compared to his greatness.

The two struck their blades into an after image of Vegeta, the curved ends of their swords meeting nothing but moss coated ground. The Saiyan warrior appeared behind them and quickly dispatched one brother with a series of ferocious punches and a final kick that launched his scrawny body into the face of a solid tree. The brother remaining turned to meet Vegeta head on, slashing his cutlass at an angle to meet his enemy's hand.

Vegeta held the rusted cutlass within the gloved palm of his hand, slowly wrapping his fingers around the thick width of the blade until his hold was secure. The sword began to weaken under his might until his fingers sunk completely through the weapon and crumbled its composition into chunks and dust. "Leave the merchant's items, take your brother and get out of here. I'm feeling generous today."

The bandit needed only that little encouragement to drop a small sack of goods before he ran to his brother and gathered him up, taking his leave and exiting into the deep woods.

As promised, Vegeta returned to Shota and handed over all he had reclaimed from the bandits. He dropped the items to the wanderer's feet and immediately held out a white palm stained by browning rust. Shota looked hard at the Prince of Saiyans for a moment before reluctantly reaching into his side pouch and producing his last remaining Senzu Bean.

"Thank you for all your help.. er, I never got your name." Shota said, beginning to secure all his belongings again.

Vegeta clapped his hand against Shota's back and lifted into the air. "You were lucky. I won't be around to save you next time, fool." With those words, he took to the sky and headed back for West City, failing to give Shota his name out of the compassion he lacked for most individuals.
