Five cauldrons

Chi-Chi hadn't said a word only following along in silence. I could understand it, I didn't really care for it. However it was understandable. It wasn't like I was wrong either, it was better to be the best than to settle down. Even the brain damaged Goku understood that, going beyond normal means and becoming a god of sorts. As undeserved I thought it was.

Goku had time, training and luck. He really was a low class warrior who had to fight to become what he was. What was worse was idiots like Zamasu believe he was special. Closing in on Mountain five elements. I stopped thinking about the mess that belong to the illogical sense of main characters. It was time for my own progress, landing down at the entrance i stared up at the mountain.

"Wow this is a big gate!"

"Yeah, yeah it is. Let me just push it open."

With a slight push the massive door was pushed forward. "Wow, that's all?"

"Yeah no magic words, are you gonna talk to me or just sort of comment on everything."

"Hmph..."

"Fine, follow the path and do what I do."

Walking down a long passage way it was filled across with spiky floors and a small gap. I ran across and jumped past. Chi-Chi followed shortly behind activating her flight to get across fully. If I was right, a couple of illusions should be forming. Now I know myself they are just illusions, but Chi-Chi certainly didn't know so before continuing I grabbed a hold Chi-Chi's hand.

"Hang on, there is some suspicious stuff up ahead." I mimed pointing to something I couldn't see. Of course nothing was really there, but I wanted Chi-Chi to think otherwise. Since I didn't really feel like explaining the illusions to her. She held on to my hand, but made no other action.

Suddenly as if on que samurai men showed up, I created a force-field and checked if they really could hurt us. The weapons passed through my shield as if it were nothing. Before getting hit though i batted the samurai away.

"As expected, Just hold my hand and react to nothing that happens. Even if we are being shot at. Trust me, okay?" I was legitimately worried she wouldn't but she nodded and let me guide her straight through the samurai. I still batted away the one that got to close, but overall they never actually attacked us. The same went for a large stone golem that rose from the spikes. After that it was a dragon like creature and Chi-Chi reacted a little off, but thankfully Chi-Chi held on as I walked straight through the dragon.

"They were all just illusions?"

"Yup" I walked up to a crafted opening, "this is the way."

Chi-Chi didn't let go of my hand so i gave her a inquisitive look while holding up our hands.

"Oh! Right, uhhh sorry. Let's head on through!"

"Don't be awkward if you want to keep holding my hand you can. We can even do something more."

"NO! I mean...uhhh well just no."

i rolled my head and walked through the cave toward a large pot. Well Cauldron, but all the same. "here we are, the thing we have to fix."

"Fix? You youngsters are here to fix what?"

An old man walked out of the mist, fog, steam? What even was that... He was in a slight combat stance, but tried not to make it obvious. "Yo! Grandpa Gohan! I'm your grandson! Kugo!"

"Haha, Very funny... Hmmm, I assume you know my actual grandson."

"Yeah Goku is training up on the uhhhhh, Well I guess its called both Kami's lookout, but also just the lookout. I mean it would change names on a new guardian taking over right?"

"REALLY! I would've never imagined...I-I."

"Your proud I get it. This is Chi-Chi daughter of your fellow student the ox-king. You met her mother right?"

"Ho Ho! Right I did! Ox-King was a lucky one."

"Yeah well his home is burning down because there a hole in that cauldron. Before you ask I am totally actually psychic and I know everything ever."

"Really?"

"No, so go get Annin and explain the situation so I can patch up the hole."

"Damn, fine. Though I would like to hear more about my grandson...."

"I can tell you about the outside world...If you tell me, where Goku's escape pod is."

"I-Ohhhh, hmm I'll think about it."

I could understand the thought of needing to think about it, he likely buried it to protect goku's origin. Not much was in the pod to be honest, but maybe just maybe it would have something useful. It was a some what risk, well not actually risky. However I needed to be lucky... Then old man Gohan wondered off back into the mist.

"That's Goku's Grandfather?"

"Not by blood, but yea."

"Neeeeat."

"Yeah, before you ask he is here on a gig because the lass he works for is milf. Though honestly I doubt she has had kids."

"You...Ugh, You are just gonna say this stuff all the time aren't you."

"Hmhuh!" A giant shadow begun to loom over the cauldron, "If she stays a giant I am gonna look up her skirt."

"I-I don't need to know that!"

"Oh sorry, just speaking aloud, unless, you want me to see wait...That doesn't work your not wearing a skirt. Damn, there goes my bit."

"I am now glad for the clothes you gave me."

"Thanks, you look hot in them."

"UGHHH!"

A small Annin and Grandpa Gohan came from the mist. "Alrighty you knew there was a hole in the cauldron how?"

"Magic, the same as this fan. You know the one you lost?"

"I see... Alright, you came to fix it did you? You have all the materials then?"

"Yup, but i would like a reward for you know bring back the bansho fan, prearranging the materials before hand, and willingly volunteering to jump into the cauldron to fix the hole. Which I might add will kill anybody who jumps in it."

Well that was half true, the inside of the cauldron was my estimation of the sun's heat. So at most if you could survive the sun you would survive the magically hot flames.

"Ermmm, well I suppose that is indeed fair. Look as long as it is within my ability and doesn't interfere with my job I'll do it."

"Cool, Thanks Annin! You pick up the Thingy-Mcbobber there and I'll fix the hole." She sighed and walked back into the mist and become a giant again. I took out the the stuff to fix the cauldron and jumped up to the rim with the bansho fan still in hand to separate the flames.

"ARE YOU READY!"

"YEAH!"

I could hear Chi-Chi whisper careful and heard Gohan sort of cheer me on. I felt a little awkward since this really wasn't all that in comparison. Using the bansho fan twice I separated the flames and dove straight in creating a force-field around my body. I stepped over to the whole and slapped a ton of honey into the crevice. I looked into the hole briefly to see where it went, but it just lead to an endless abyss. After shaking free from staring down into whatever that was. I plunked the fire-eaters shell in the hole. I waited a second since I could see Annin struggle, I figured I should make a slight show to...solidify my reward.

I blasted out of the fire seconds before Annin dropped the thingy-mcbobber she was holding. Seriously was that thing a pot? Kettle? Cauldron? Was this a cauldron or was the fire produce the cauldron...

"I pretend to wipe sweat from my brow. Phew! That one was a close one!"

It seems the two spectators and Annin also exhaled a sighed of relief. I could only smirk, and roll my eyes and the...drama? If you could even call it that. I had to be honest I wasn't really in it today due to Chi-Chi.

i sighed and landed back to where the others were. It was time to get my reward.
