Morning After
The battle between the two giant apes continued on for as long as the moon was in the sky, and only when it left and the first rays of the sun started to tint the sky did the battle come to a close, and then all at once. As soon as the last light of the moon left his eyes, Gohan went still as he began to shrink in on himself, slumping over onto his stomach as he rapidly shrank back down to his normal size...though without any clothes. Raditz also shrank down, but he was able to keep himself upright and his armor shrank with him. As he braced himself against the plateau, he turned to stare at the shattered left shoulder plate of the armor, the bite torn out of the torso, and the cracks in several places over the chest. "Kid really did a number on this," he murmured in awe, running a hand over it and wincing, both from bruises on his ribs and from flakes of metal falling away. "Don't suppose there's anyone on this backwater planet who could possibly fix this?" he asked, not really considering the possibility seriously..
"One of Goku's friends is really good with technology," Piccolo pointed out dryly as he floated down, Big Mac on his back and pies in his hands. "If it's that important, I can probably get the armor to her to give it a look."
"Probably best to do it before it gets too damaged," Raditz allowed as he pulled the armor off, leaving himself in just a black speedo of similar material. His eyes widened as he saw the damage from the outside. "Though if it can be fixed from this, she'll be a real marvel."
"We'll see," Piccolo said as he took the armor while Big Mac began cutting the pies up to serve.
"If she can figure out how to fix it, it'd help to get one in my nephew's size," Raditz pointed out. "The armor's designed to grow with the wearer, as you noticed, and if nothing else it'll keep him decent." Taking the slice of pie Big Mac gave him, Raditz took a bite...then widened his eyes as he ran a hand over his chest where bruises were already rapidly fading. "...that works better than even the healing tanks!" he marveled. "And it tastes great!" He quickly devoured the rest of his slice.
Chuckling softly, Big Mac cut the rest of that pie up, ready to serve Gohan once he awoke as he was already stirring. He handed the other pie to Piccolo and gestured from his antennae to an obscure direction.
Piccolo took the pie. "This one for Kami?" he asked the pony quietly.
"Eeyup!" Big Mac confirmed.
"Well, that ought to make getting the armor fixed a little easier," he murmured as he picked up the armor. "Keep things under control with these two hellions while I'm gone?"
Raditz snorted derisively. "I think I can handle a couple of brats-"
"I wasn't talking to you," Piccolo interrupted with a smirk as he flew off.
As Piccolo approached Kami's lookout, he frowned at the sight that greeted him. While the top of the lookout was mostly empty, Mr. Popo stood in the middle of it talking to a pair of individuals Piccolo didn't recognize. Both were roughly humanoid in appearance - at least from this distance - though one was grey while the other was blue. Uh...Kami? Does Mr. Popo have...guests? he thought silently to his...would Kami be his brother, Uncle, or other self? He was never quite sure how to define that, and he didn't really interact enough with the Guardian for it to be important, save at these odd moments when his mind was stalled and it rose to his thoughts.
He does, Kami thought back ruefully. You might want to delay your approach. They are...a handful.
Wish I could, but the pie is getting cold-
Before Piccolo finished the thought, he was suddenly on the lookout next to Mr. Popo. "About time," Mr. Popo stated flatly as he took the pie, cutting it into pieces.
"Hi young green man!" the blue girl greeted happily with a wave. "Are you a friend of Mr. Pope's?"
"Uh...not exactly..." Piccolo allowed, unsure how to handle being around someone that Mr. Popo let get his name wrong.
"I think that's the son of the older guy's other half," the older grey skinned man said, pointing to Kami. "I can kinda see a family resemblance."
"Ooooh! That makes sense!" the blue girl declared with a wide grin, her tail swishing back and forth as her ears twitched back and forth.
It was only at this point that Piccolo noticed the girl was apparently feline.
"So what brings you here, hmm?" Mr. Popo asked the blue girl. "You don't normally bring company when I call."
"Oh, I wanted you to meet my boyfriend!" the blue girl declared excitedly, pulling the grey man forward. "And he was able to help me make the gateway out of tacos!"
"Hello," the grey man greeted nervously, nervously running one hand through his graying black hair while waving with the other. "I've...heard a lot about you, Mr. Popo."
As Mr. Popo stared into the grey man's soul, Piccolo glanced over his shoulder to see a hole in the sky surrounded by what looked like seven white stars. ...tacos? he thought to Kami.
Trust me, Piccolo, you really don't want to know.
"That training is brutal!" Krillin suddenly spoke up as he stepped out onto the lookout. "I could really go for a snack-ooh, pie!" Not noticing those surrounding it, he immediately started to reach for a slice.
The blue girl was immediately in front of him, staring into his eyes as her own narrowed to slits.
"Uh...can I have some-" he began.
"Pecking order!" she suddenly hissed. She then jerked upright with a happy smile on her face as she backhanded him across the platform. Somewhere, something went "Ding!" as he crashed into a pillar.
"I...guess that's a no..." Krillin groaned.
Mr. Popo's frown creaked into a smile. "That's my girl."
"Oh, that reminds me!" the blue girl suddenly declared. "We found Mom, and we have a new Dad! My boyfriend works for him!"
Mr. Popo turned back to the grey man. "Tell me...what do you think I'll do to you if you hurt her?" he asked calmly.
"You mean assuming if there's anything left after her, her sisters, her Mom, her Aunt, and my Boss get through with me?" the grey man asked playfully with a nervous grin on his face. "I would say probably something unspeakable that I couldn't possibly imagine...but that kinda makes me curious, so I'll stick to unspeakable."
Mr. Popo's grin widened. "I like you," he stated, a purr barely noticeable in his voice.
"Somehow that makes me more nervous than if you didn't," the grey man observed worriedly.
"Looks like you picked a smart one, blue girl!" Mr. Popo called over his shoulder with a grin.
Groaning and rubbing his head, Piccolo turned to where Krillin was half buried under the pillar he'd smashed into. "Can you get me in contact with your smart friend?" he asked ruefully. "I need some space armor repaired, and a fresh set if she can make one."
"What's so great about space armor?" Krillin groaned from under the pillar.
"It changes shape and size with the wearer somehow, even going multiple stories tall."
Krillin was silent for a time. "Oh Kami, we're all going to die, aren't we?"
"Hopefully not," Kami observed dryly.
"Most of you," Mr. Popo added with a grin.
Second half of the chapter inspired by the pic from Caio Coia that I posted a few chapters ago. I just had to write the scene out!

Looks like culinary skill is one thing all the Apple clans inherited.
Piccolo has a strong survival instinct. Krillin doesn't
Thank you for creating this great chapter. I thought it was perfect at the moment Sonata slapt Krillin, but Ratso talking with Mr. popo, became one of my favorite scenes.
Now I can imagine Krillin always being, we are going to die, and Ratso be like, yeah, everyone has a day, so why not kick the bucket and do that with feeling? Giving a bad advice but with a good speech, and making Krillin not get hit count once but at least twice or trice than before. LoL
Yes but more please.
Its always a good day when you update.
Who is the grey person? Also it is good to see a update every so often
So this also crosses over with the Jackie Chan story? Or does it cross over with all the other stories you've written?
10135457
It's Ratso. I didn't catch it either until 10135387 pointed it out.
So this is gonna cross over with TMT like AJ, Pinkie, and Rainbow did? Nicccccce.
10135457
no spoilers but read "three more things"
Very nice chapter, especially Piccolo leaving Big Mac in charge of Gohan and Raditz!
I can’t wait to see what comes next!
And the Jackie Chan story was already on my re-read list XD
10135472
I did read it but I forgot some things
Ratso earned Popo's approval. It truly is the end of the world.
10135424
True.
Well I do agree that he does fully understand what will happen to him if that where ever to pass. The scary part is they would probably find a way to make sure that he does make it that far. Now I wonder how they plan on getting Bulma that armor?
So Ratso has Mister Popo’s approval.
…
He’s gonna die. :P
Sonata was easy but for some reason it took me a few moments to realize that she brought Ratso to visit.
Wonder how mom and step-dad are taking that those two have figured out how to make ultra-dimensional gateways
And just like that, my crappy day at work has been brightened up with a new chapter of this story. Awesome!
Hehe, Krillin got back handed by Sonata.
10135462
Well, they're all planned to cross over at some point... but other than Pinkie (or those bearing the name), this is the only time it's happened early like this.
10135684
of Which world though?
10135760
No? Really?
10135765
I guess for Valmont it will be... a Tuesday...
10135799
Valmont at the Multi-class tournament that they were going to in the latest chapter of "Three More Things", gets a call from Po Kong.
Jackie: Everything okay? You look a little pensive.
Valmont: Sonata and Ratso just succeed in using their TPG's in making a ultra- dimensional gateway so Sonata took Ratso to meet her teacher
Sweetie: The same one that taught her to fight and then had to seal everything he taught her?
Valmont looks at how Jackie and the rest that were there when she fought are shrinking in on themselves: I wonder if I could get Ratso a few others a few lessons?
10135469
TMT?
Apple cooking, man.
HAH!
Pardon?
As it should.
Eh, you will. But not to the Saiyans.
10135906
'Three More Things'— Tats's CMC PWNY crossover with Jackie Chan Adventures. Absolutely need to start reading that one if you haven't.
I love it when there's a crossover of a crossover. Ratso is indeed a smart one.
Never thought I'd see that image in hilarious literary form.
10135799
All of them.
10136086
I’ve read it, but when did the AJ, Dash, and Pinkie crossover with the Crusaders?
10136541
Dante's Little Apple Surprise, Technological Technicolor Technomare, and You Can't Spell Slaughter Without Laughter crossed with each other since the three ponies in question were partially able to perceive each other at points. AJ perceived a few things Pinkie did, and one of Pinkie's comments caused Loki to flee in TTT.
wonderful update!!
10135765
Well if you remember, un a certain chapter of TMT Jackie and Valmont met in a bar and I don't remember exactly but I think Valmont said something along the lines of "Ratso and Sonata did a perpetual energy machine with tacos " so at this point he would say :"I can't believe I worked my ass to bring their uncles and aunt out of one hell and they accidentally build a gateway to other dimension"
10136681
Sorry, I don’t reread, and it’s been a while.
Took me a while to realize Sonata Dusk's boyfriend was Ratso, meaning this is a crossover with Three More Things.
Huh, I really thought that Blue-Girl was going to be Popo's girlfriend, not his pseudo-daughter.
ok...……. seeing the pitcher really made my day. but reading how it went down well ………………………………….. (hides in a small box) please don't tell Mr.Popo where I am.
Those following along know who this 'he' is. However, it's good writing courtesy to say the name at the beginning of the paragraph, especially at the start of a chapter.
Saying the same thing twice in one line is a little sloppy.
Now I'm curious how your counter will differ. Will little Big Mac be able to see it with his inexplicable pony powers? I'm assuming it'll go higher, as that would be funnier. Better yet, Big Mac figures out what it means, tries to save the poor Buddhist, only for a comedy of errors to take hold and the counter to climb.
That is a stupid question. It's armor... from space. Cool factor can just be assumed by the name alone.
10136681
AWESOME CHAPTER!!! Ah right, that reminds me: On the last episode of DBZeeyup, Nappa PWND Piccolo, and Gohan turned Super Saiyan! What does this mean for the two evil Saiyans? Find out...in the future if any of this crap actually happens on DBZeeyup!
10193650
AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!
(jumps off the lookout)

(a random Deadpool aperid)
Deadpool:great. now I gotta convince my lady miss death to bring him back so he can pay his half of rent.
10193758
Deadpool: that's ok. he's my pal anyway.
(a random lemongarb)
Lemongarb:UNACEPTA-(gets knocked out by Deadpool)
Deadpool: would torturing this super annoyance be any consolation in making sure my pal is ok oh great and powerfull Mr.Popo?
10193800
Deadpool: I'll take that as a yes.
(leaves a tied up lemon head that's knocked out well heading to the after life)
10193804
Me(aka Mekarm): (grabs with robo hand) deal.
10193807
10193804
Please take this somewhere else.
If Nappa lives, my life will be complete.
Kami: "Mr Popo? Why did you let Nappa live?"
Mr Popo: "Because Fuck Vegeta."
Goku: "Yo Nappa! Do you like muffins?"
Nappa: "Are cookies the work of the devil?"
Goku: "...Hey Vegeta! I just found a new best buddy!"
Vegeta: ".........NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
And that's another reread of the entire collection finished...
10193824
As always, I look forward to Teen/Adult Big Mac.
10193824
BTW I constantly bring up Mega Man's wedding when talking about good fan fiction and the three laws of robotics. I just don't admit it is a pony fan fiction to my peers.
I need Nappa to live if only so Nappa can bond with Krillin.
Krillin: "You... Saved me?"
Nappa: "Duh, us bald guys gotta stick together."
Nappa would be the best bro/wingman that Krillin needs.

Plus you know This guy wears Space Armor so...

Mega Man gets married?
