Although the time had passed him by pretty much on the outside, he knew from his sister how important youth was for women.<br />
"When it comes to being younger, why not look for those bullets that you can use to call the dragon ... what's their name ...?"
<br />
"Dragonballs."
<br />
"You know about it?"
<br />
"I know people who have been looking for you."
<br />
"Did you find the dragon balls?"
<br />
"Yes, because they had a device that could be used to track them down. A dragon ball radar."
<br />
"Wait a minute, do you mean the people you mean are Bulma, Krilin and the rest?"
<br />
“The rest also have names.” She listed on her fingers: “Son Goku, Piccolo, Son Gohan, Tenshinhan”, her voice fluctuates a little here, “Chaozu, Yamcha, Poo, Muten Roshi, ...”
<br />
"Stop!" Interrupted C17. "How do you know all of them?"
<br />
"The other me lived as a housekeeper at Muten Roshi for many years. That's when I got to know them all. I was also among the spectators at the tournaments."
<br />
"By Muten Roshi? That ladyboy?"
<br />
"Don't worry, all he wanted was a little bit of action and tension.After I showed him with my gun what to expect, should he take advantage of the innocence of my other half, he preferred to stick to the television and his booklets ... "
<br />
That made C17 a lot easier. "So why don't you ask Bulma if she can lend you the radar and then look for him rejuvenated. Even better, you can use another wish to have the dragon bring you to him. How about that?"
<br />
"Two wishes? I think there is only one?"
<br />
"That was the previous edition. I have my brother-in-law Krilin ...", he got no further.
<br />
"How, you're C18's brother?" Lunch interrupted, astonished.
<br />
"Yes, but we don't see each other very often since Maron came here," he said quickly, "as I said, I heard Krilin talk about the Dragon Balls a few years ago. He said that thanks to the new god there are now three Wishes are free. The third thing you can do is wish the guy to fall in love with you. "<br />
Lunch just stared at him for a while. 17 began to believe that he had a wart on his nose or something like that. But then his message slowly, slowly seeped into her heart, numb with pain and disappointment, and her eyes began to shine.
<br />
Almost embarrassed, C17 looked to the side. "It's not that big of a deal either ..." he muttered.
<br />
“But ... that I didn't think of it long ago!” Lunch crossed his arms and considered his suggestions. "The catch is that all the people who have been looking for the Dragonballs so far could either fly themselves or at least pilot an airplane. I can't either, but I won't let that get me down. If necessary, I'll kidnap a machine and all of it Pilot.."
<br />
"Hijacke!", Corrected C17. "You don't say kidnap with airplanes."
<br />
"Even if the parts are still on the floor when you grab them?" Asked Lunch.
<br />"I think so too," replied C17 after a brief period of pondering. "Shall we leave right away?"
<br />
"Do you want to come with me?" Asked Lunch. "It's my problem and not yours."
<br />
"Assaulting people gets boring after a while," he said with a grin. "And besides, you need protection."
<br />
"Say that again!", Lunch glared at him and before he knew it she had pulled his revolver out of his belt and was holding the barrel under his nose. "I could perforate your brain now, kid. When it comes to being a predator, you still have a lot to learn."
<br />
“Oh yeah?” His hand took hers and although she didn't think she was a weakling, he easily bent her fingers apart and the revolver fell on the tabletop.
<br />
She shook her hand and laughed harshly. "You are better than I thought. But I really don't need any protection."
<br />
"What about your other half?"
<br />
Lunch's good mood was wiped away.Her shoulders sagged and she sighed. "My other half .... she would just give up the search and give away the bullets she found to the next beggar. He is not as important to her as it is to me ..."
<br />
"Cheer up!", C17 patted her lightly on the shoulder. "That's why I'm going with you. I'll carry the balls and I'll remind the other lunch of our goal. And when the time comes, I'll make her sneeze if necessary so that you can say the spell."
<br />
"And you won't let me down once you've got all the balls and make a wish for yourself?" She asked suspiciously.
<br />
"What do I need big?" He asked with a laugh. "I can steal more treasure when I need money. I am also in excellent health and as a cyborg I age much slower than humans. Nobody has died lately that I have to bring back and world domination would be much too difficult." He looked at her frankly."The three wishes are all for you. My word of honor."
<br />
"Well," she said, grudgingly impressed, "I want to trust you. But woe betide you, ..." She left the consequences open, but he could imagine what these would look like. Not that he was particularly intimidated, but if he got her too angry it could rub off on the other lunch and that would be really regrettable ...
<br />
"Then we agree." He got up and went to the door. "Are you coming with me now, aren't you?"
<br />
"Wait a minute!", Lunch pointed to her feet. "I don't intend to go looking for things in my slippers. I also need a bit of luggage."
<br />
With that she went back to her room and sorted the clothes until there was only a small bundle left, which she put in a shawl. Tightened the knot, slipped into the clumsy but indestructible shoes and she too was ready. The search could begin.
<br />
