Chapter 3 - CHAPTER 3: SLAVE WORK

Three days have passed.

I'm a non paid worker.

She's been working me like a slave.

I should've read the damn contract. Those papers weren't meaningless. The way that she returned back exactly when I finished signing my papers is like she knew I wasn't going to read any of rules. She knew. But my love for her will not disappear. I will take as much time as it will take to enter her heart.

As I'm thinking about her, she appears right in front of my eyes.

"Hey, I've got a little mission for you."

I smirk non chalantly.

"No problem, what's up?"

She smiles.

"The celling"

I let out a little giggleshit to impress her.

"Okay but seriously, your job is to clean up every room here including Vegeta's training room."

Oh god. What a travesty. This is nothing like expected from this universe. Back when I was an actual human being, I thought I'd be at least a super saiyan. I thought I'd be training with Goku and Vegeta. If I had a fusion with Goku, our name would be Goguu. And if it was with Vegeta, it would be Veguu. How I've daydreamnt of this.

I take the mop and decide to take a detour to explore the Capsule Corp. 

This whole situation hasn't hit me yet. It's been 3 whole days since I've woken up in the Dragon Ball verse. The ridiculousness of the situation still baffles me. Imagine dying while taking a piss at school and waking up in the Dragon Ball universe. Then you find the Capsule Corporation just to find Bulma, the girl you've loved since your childhood. Dragon Ball wasn't just an anime for me, it was life. Back when I was in high school, I would play Dokkan Battle and Dragon Ball Legends. I was never a big fan of Legends because I was the number one victim to shafting. I prayed to Toshi every night just to get nothing. It was unfathomably bullshit. When I deleted that game, it felt like a chain being lifted off of my soul. I also loved Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 because there was this really nice character creator.

As I was lost in memory lane, I realized that I ended up in the Capsule Corp engineering room. Capsule cars, capsule fridges, capsule houses, capsule capsules. It was all so surreal to see with my own eyes. It's like a dream, not a very good one considering I was working as an unpaid worker. My job reminds me of this one Kanye West song.

I sing to myself

"I've been working this grave shift and I ain't made shit. I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly. Past the sky."

As I sing my heart out, someone opens the door to the engineering room.

"Who's the new guy?"

Holy shit...

Is that my... brother?

My brother, Lolo!

"Lolo, I've missed you so much!"

I jump in for the embrace.

"How do you know my name? And get the fuck off of me!"

He pushes me off.

"First of all, I'm not your brother."

What..? He looks exactly like my brother. He sounds like my brother. He has the same eyes, the same ears, the same hair, the same nose, the same everything.

He crosses his arms.

"My name is Lolo as you already know. Who are you?"

This isn't my brother...

I reply back.

"I am Nathanguu. I'm a new employee."

He informs me.

"You shouldn't be here, this room's off limits."

I accept this information formally.

"I shall leave, I have a quest to complete anyways. See ya."

I wave as I leave the room.

"See ya."

He replies back.

I make my way to Vegeta's room to clean it up. I got distracted so I decide to run to his room with my mop.

I open the door just to see Vegeta's sweaty ass. It looks like he's been training hard. It's something I really admired while watching Dragon Ball Z as a little lad. Seeing Vegeta's determination to surpass Goku was always so inspiring to me.

I decide to speak first.

"Hey I'm here to clean your room."

Next thing I feel is a sharp pain in my abdomen. I didn't even realize it. He hit me with a punch at light speed. It felt like my insides were getting crushed in the span of a couple of milliseconds. He pins me by the neck onto a wall.

He mutters.

"Who are you?"

I try to talk but he shushes me with his finger.

"Enough, I'll end your life quickly."

He chokes me and breaks my throats. I've never felt such pain.

He then takes my body and slams it onto the ground.

My childhood hero is murdering me and I don't even know why. It's like seeing your dreams collapse. I'm already at a bad mental state after dying while pissing but this makes everything worse. The combined pain is like nothing else. Physical and mental. It felt like my mind was gonna explode, figuratively and literallly.

One final blow and all goes black.

If only I was more powerful, I'd be able to resist against his unjustified attacks.

If only I was more powerful, I could've survived the heart attack I got from taking a piss.

If only I was more powerful...

Powerful...

Power...

I'm spiralling down into a deep depression and my only escape is power.

I'm going to get powerful so I can survive anything.

I'll have it at any cost.

I'll sacrifice anything.
