24 ch 24

After all the participants were registered and gathered they let everyone know the preliminary rounds will be happening on the following day and for everyone to be prepared for the event. Carl was confused because he thought the fight would start right away but it did make sense to give everyone a day of rest after arriving. Looking around Carl didn't see the dragon crew so he assumed they already left so Carl did the same.

Carl spent the day browsing around till he got bored and went back to his hotel room. It was late at night and on one of the tables in the room could be seen the old scouter disassembled along with other parts. Carl wanted to upgrade the scouter and try and make it more streamline. As Carl was working all of a sudden he could hear someone yelling, "PERVERTED OLD MAN!!!" Then in the next second he hears a pound, smack and a thud.

Putting down what he was working on Carl went to the door to take a look. When he opened the door and looked down the hall he could see master Roshi in a tumble against the wall from an open room. Then from that room appeared bulma still fully dressed and blond launch who has her bra exposed without a shirt on. Carl couldn't help but stare at launches exposed chest as they laid into master Roshi not noticing Carl ogling both launch and bulma.

As Carl stood watching the show, he evidently stayed a little to long because in the corner of launches eye she saw Carl standing by down the hall watching, "what you looking at punk?!" Launch says to Carl now directing her attention to him as well as bulma forgetting about master Roshi who crawled away due to them being distracted.

Carl mearly raises an eyebrow at launch and smirked in amusement. "Just enjoying the pre show till the tournament." Carl said as he crossed his arms over his chest not bothering to look away from the blond girl who, without bothering to put on a shirt, starts walking menacingly over to Carl followed by a worried bulma. Knowing how launch usually is, bulma is worried about her pulling out a gun on him. Carls mentality has definitely shifted a bit after the wish to become a saiyan. He would usually be a little more embarrassed seeing a half naked girl walking towards him. He is slightly embarrassed evident by his slight blush but he's still able to keep his cool and seeing her walk up to him like that got Carl a little excited from her challenging demeanor, 'is this that saiyan pride thing Vegeta keeps spouting about?' Carl thought to himself.

Once launch was about a foot away from Carl, without any warning, she cocked back her fist ready for a punch and said, "well shows over!" She then threw her punch with all her momentum. To Carl she seamed to be moving very slow so Carl just side stepped the punch causing launch to trip over herself and start to fall forward.

Without thinking Carl shot out his hand to catch launch, which he did, but he had something soft and squishy in the palm of his hand. Carl, having a bad feeling and a good feeling at the same time, involuntarily squeezed his hand causing launch to let out a small moan and Carl could only think, 'fuck.' Launch immediately jumped off Carl covered her chest and stared with anger at Carl. Bulma could only look at both Carl and launch with wide eyes at the series of events happening. Carl raised his hands in a futile attempt to calm the situation down, "now hold on…"

Before Carl could say anything more, launched pulled out a machine gun out of nowhere and yelled, "EAT LEAD!" She then started to shoot at him.

Carl then stretched out his hand, palm facing at the incoming bullets, and utilizing the force, the bullets slowly came to a stop not far from Carl just like in the matrix. Carl couldn't help from thinking in his mind, 'I am the one.' All the bullets fell to the floor to the amazement of both bulma and launch. Seeing as her first attack didn't work launch went to reload her weapon. Carl not wanting to deal with this, blitzed off to launch and karate chopped her neck making her fall unconscious. 'Always wanted to try that.' Carl thought to himself and then looked over to bulma who startled at now having carls attention. He then picked up launch in a princes carry and turned to Bulma. "Now I can either give her over to you and you can take her back or I can help you take her back to her room." Carl offered to help, also a plus to get to know bulma and carry a pretty woman.

Bulma, after getting out of her stupor, replied, "o-oh yes. T-thank you and I'm sorry about her…she has a bit of a temper" she then walked ahead of Carl leading the way with Carl following carrying launch. Bulma walking ahead couldn't help but keep taking glances at Carl with a blush. Carl was extremely fit and exuded a masculine aura after the wish on the dragon that bulma couldn't keep her eyes off of. She felt a little guilty looking at someone other than Yamcha like that but Yamcha has been off training for 3 years, 'and that jerk goes around with other girls behind my back' Bulma thought to herself. She doesn't have any proof that he's cheating but she has seen those advertisements he's been doing and he's surrounded by women and he seems to be loving it. At this point bulma had a sour face as they entered hers and launches room.

After being let into the room by bulma, Carl went over to one of the beds and laid launch down on it. After putting launch down he turned to bulma. "Well it's been…interesting. I'll catch you some other time." He then went to go and leave the room.

As he was about to leave bulma on impulse said, "wait!" Causing Carl to pause mid step and turn to her in a bit of confusion making bulmas blush deepen a little. "W-whats your name a-and are you participating in the tournament?" she doesn't know why she stopped him. she just wanted to get to know the new, interesting, handsome, strong, tall, domine….bulma shook her head trying to get those thoughts out of her head but failing.

Carl amused by bulmas many facial expressions answered her, "my name is Carl, Carl Dearman. And yes I am participating." He then looks her up and down causing her to blush even deeper. "I take it you have friends in the tournament? No offense but you don't look like a fighter." He then looked over at launch who was snoozing away. "Your blond friend maybe?" Carl decided to play it as if he knew nothing about anyone here. It was one thing in the Star Wars reality with people knowing things they shouldn't all the time in that reality thanks to the force. Here tho people would be very put off by it most likely.

Bulma looking over at launch replied, "her? Oh no no we're not participating but our friends are." She then has a bit of a pout. "And what do you mean? Do you think I can't take care of myself?" Bulma for all her quirks was a proud woman. The type of woman that would slap a destroyer god in the face for ruining her birthday party, so having someone saying she was weak and helpless kinda grineded her gears a little.

Carl chucked a little, "no im sure you're more than capable. It just with your physique." He then eyed her up and down again making her go back to being shy. "You just look more like someone who wouldn't like fighting much." He gave her a smirk at the end because of her behavior.

Bulma cleared her throat to try and compose herself. "Well I guess you're right about that." They then fell into silence.

After a bit of time with no one saying anything Carl motioned to leave, " well I'm going to head back to my room now. Need to make sure I'm rested for tomorrow.

Bulma coming back to her senses says goodbye, "ok then I guess I'll see you at the tournament tomorrow?" Carl gave his confirmation and left for his room.

Reentering his room he could see HK still working on the scouter totally unconcerned with the commotion that happened. "No comment?"

HK responded, {I believed you had those meatbag women under control master. I feared if I were to intervene I would have used what you would probably call excessive use of force master.} and after HKs response Carl thought on it and yes HK would of most likely maimed or killed then both.

Carl nods to HK, "well I'm glad you can use deductive reasoning."

HK simply nods, {always happy to be of service master} he then goes back to the scouter. Carl then plops on the bed thinking about all that's happened so far and the tournament the next day as he drifted off to sleep.

Now I have a question for you people. Bulma is already confirmed to join Carl in the MCU. Now I'm wonder, shoul I have launch join him as well? I do feel bad for launch basicly being forgotten when z starts so was thinking she could join the MC. Also I won't lie she's hot lol 😂.
