"Heh, just lead the way, my friend." Oryan would reply as he waited for Tyson to take them where they were headed. He hadn't been to Metamoria before, so hopefully this would be an interesting trip.
OOC:*gasp* epic foreshadowing.

Gozu transmits into Korin's Tower right behind him he quickly lunges for the cat who jumps up and bounces off his head. Gozu stumbles forward but catches himself and turns around a grin on his face. "You're still to fast with your mind reading for me to catch you."

Korin chuckled "Goku did the same thing a couple times. I kinda got used to it. So you learned Instant Transmission I see." Gozu smiles and nods his head. "Yeah that and a couple of other cool techniques." A bit sarcastically Korin asks. "So what do I owe the honor of a visit from Gozu?"

"Awww...you're not upset that I left without saying goodbye are you?" Korin reaches up and smacks him on the head with his cane. "Oww..." Korin shakes his head. "You're a Super Saiyan that didn't hurt. And no I don't care that you left with your girlfriend without saying goodbye."

Gozu sighs. "She's not my girlfriend I don't know why everyone keeps saying that." Korin chuckles but drops the subject. "So why are you here?" "Oh well you see it looks like I'll be in some major battles and I want a senzu bean for the battle."

"Yes two Changelings attacked the Earth not long ago. I fear it may not be the last of them." Gozu nods his head. "Yeah I just got done killing one on Namek with Nai." Korin walks over to the edge of the tower and looks out. "Never a moment's peace seems like." He mutters.

Gozu sighs and nods his head but is too naturally happy to get too depressed about it just means more challenges for him. "Well Korin I'll be back with your fish shortly." He says happily as he summons his nimbus and flies down to the lake he usually fishes in.

Gozu flies up and lands in the tower completely dry now due to the flight there. He tosses Korin the fish who catches it. "Why are you always in your boxers when you give me a fish?" Gozu chuckles. "I don't want to get my clothes wet."

As Korin goes to get Gozu his senzu bean Gozu gets dressed and waits leaning against his nimbus. Korin tosses Gozu the bean after he retrieves it from a cabinet. Gozu catches it and puts in the pouch that Korin gave him earlier.

"Thank you Korin!" Gozu says happily as he jumps on his nimbus and flies off headed to the plains to see if his old ship is still in good shape or not. Good I got a senzu bean. I can be more aggressive in my next battle.

Issilude rode the nimbus over several forests and a large lake before reaching the base of Korin's tower. Issilude expected to start going up after this, but instead he found himself sitting on the ground near the large stone stick. "What are you doing, nimbus? Korin's at the top of the tower."

The cloud floated over to a sign near the base of the tower. Issilude walked over and read it. All those who wish to train under the great Korin must first climb his tower. You may not fly, you may not teleport, and you may not be carried. Only those who work their way to the top shall be trained. All others will be sent back. Korin WILL know.

Issilude looked back at his cloud. "But I don't want him to train me, I just want directions." And to waste as much time as possible between now and having to fight someone. Issilude thought.
The cloud ignored him and started to bump against his back, pushing him closer and closer to the tower.

Issilude sighed. "Okay, okay. I'll climb the stupid thing." He looked up... and up... and up some more, until his neck hurt from bending too far back. "Just promise you'll catch me when I fall..."

Amazingly, Issilude didn't fall, though he came close several times. It took him a good hour to make it up to Korin's tower, and more than once he was forced to rest on one of the tower's ornaments. Why in the world does Korin live so high up? He asked himself over and over again as he neared the top.

Eventually, Issilude arrives at the top of the great tower. Korin stood nearby, apparently having been waiting for him. "So you decided to come for training, huh?" The old cat asked.
Issilude shook his head. "No, I just want to know where the people attacking Earth are.

Korin rose an eyebrow. "You plannin' on fighting them?" Issilude hesitates, then nods. "Well don't. Their leaders are easily stronger than you, and they don't care if they kill or not. You'll die; horribly, painfully, and certainly."

Issilude looked down and left. "But they're killing people. I can't just sit by and watch. Even if it only slows them down a bit..."
"So you're willing to die so a few strangers will live for another five minutes? Cause that's the most you'll get, the absolute most."

"Maybe, but..." Issilude stopped. He didn't have a reason to do this. Not one he felt comfortable sharing anyway. All those cities destroyed. All those Namekians dead. I don't want to see anything like that again. Korin sighed, having read all this and knowing he couldn't convince Issilude otherwise.

"Alright, Issilude. I'll tell you where they are. But you have to do two things first." Issilude looked up as Korin continued. "First, you have to undergo my training."
"But there isn't any time!"

"Which is why you're getting the express lessons. By the end of the day, you should be much stronger than you are now."
Issilude shook his head. "You can't learn anything important in a day. It's impossible." I couldn't even learn Orca's trick well enough to remember it...

"Well, you won't actually be learning kid. You'll be cheating." Korin held up a small jar. "In this jar is a special water, capable of providing you with incredible power. All you have to do to drink it is catch me."
Issilude looked doubtful. "I've never heard of any water, or potion for that matter, capable of that."

Korin smirked. "That's cause you're not from Earth. This stuff is only found in a special resevoir, and I'm the only one who knows how to get there. So, you want to try it or not?"
Issilude nodded. He's right, just because there's nothing like this at home doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The nimbus is proof enough of that.

"Alright. You can use whatever tricks you want. Psychic Halt, Destructo Disk, anything. The only requirement is that you get the water." Korin explained. "Ready?" Issilude nodded again and started to prepare his energy.

Korin grinned. "GO!" Issilude stuck out his hand, firing a bolt of bluish-white lightning. The bolt passed through Korin, who seemed to fade away. WAH!? Did I just...?

"Heheh, nice trick. Reminds me of the Namekians' electrical antennae attack. Although, it's a bit slower." Issilude turned, finding the cat sitting on a shelf nearby.

Issilude stared, looking between the cat and where he just was. "How did you get over there so fast!?"
Korin grinned. "It's a technique of my own invention; the after image. You move so fast that you leave an illusion of yourself behind. Neat, huh?"

Issilude listens to Korin's explanation intently. He's surprised when the cat adds, "You should be able to do it, too."
Issilude shook his head. "There's no way I'm fast enough to do that!"

Julia flies in, and rushes over to Korin with a red snapper... "Sorry to interrupt!" She says to Issilude, getting the trade done with rather quickly so Korin can go back to training Issilude... then, with a new senzu bean, she starts trying to find Shiro's and Gozu's ki signals.

Julia gets a lock on Shiro's since Gozu's completely asleep, still... Placing her index and middle finger to her forehead, she prepares to teleport.
