If what they had read was true and if Dock was telling the truth than the Floating Island of legend would exist. Orion's father had told him how it had been a place where many of the pasts greatest fighters had trained. Now he and Dock had taken to the skies in a bid to find it. Alot had happened in a short while, Orion had tasted the sheer force of battle against a powerful enemy. Unlock a side of him he knew so little of, his Saiyan side. A Saiyan, from first hand experience they did not seem like a friendly bunch. And now Orion felt like the fate of Earth rested on his shoulders, and on Dock's. "How much further is it to the spot?" he asked Dock.

Dock looked forwards, seeing a slender cylander in the distance. " Just up there! " He said, an aura bursting around him pushing forward and faster. " Make sure to fly faster, we have to break the altitude and head up to the top!" He looked over to Orion and smiled, they were approaching it quickly. Soon they were neck to neck to it and Dock ascended upwards, pushing through the air. It was hard, yet he was able to break through the air pressure with the help of the aura around him. He didn't look back as that would throw him off, and that would cause him to fall all the way down to the Earth.

Orion saw the cylinder up ahead. He kept his eyes forward, a few inches away he was going to hit the cylinder. But at the last second he pulled upwards and began to follow Dock. The further he went up the slower he became. "Come on, pick up speed Orion, come on do it, do it!" he shouted to himself in his mind. A burst of his aura igntied its flame red as his speed began to pick up more and more. Faster and faster he flew up, first he was catching up to Dock, then they were even. Then Orion overtook Dock and kept on flying high. "This is amazing, I've never flown this fast before, I feel so alive and...". His thought was stopped when his head collided with what appeared to be a tiled ceiling in the sky. The pain still throbbing he grabbed onto a nearby ladder. Slowly he began climbing it. "Man thats smart, where the heck did this come...from...any...way" his trail of voiced stopped when he remembered where he was, looking downwards he could see Clouds and specks of sea and ground. Almost screaming Orion scurried up the ladder like a spider and jumped off it onto a tiled ground before tuning and looking down at below again. "Jeez Dad, maybe next time tell me how far up" he said as he turned round, "....whoa" The whole area was roughly about the width and length of his elementary school. In between him were two lines which had four palm trees swaying in thw wind. Ahead was a small seleciton of buildings. All of which looked brand new, as did the palm trees. "This must be it, but it looks untouched, untainted, like it was just built yesterday" Orion said to himself as he palced his hand on one of the trees and waited for Dock to arrive.

Dock blasted his way through the skies, actually paying attention to where he was going. He avoided the ladder rested towards the bottom of the island and instead flew to the top, flipping onto the ground, looking around the island in the sky. " Here it is. This would be the Karinto Plateau...if Legend is true. " Dock shrugged, nothing around besides Dust. " Hm..There is supposed to be a guardian up here...He watches over Earth and protects it when needed. " Dock began to search around the area, looking for the Earth Guardian's house, or any sign that someone was present. All his efforts were in vain as everything was nicely put, and clean. Dock called over Orion and together they viewed the palace like building based in the center of the structures. They walked towards the door, yet as soon as they were within five feet of it a middle-aged man, Tall and about the age of Fifty landed infront of them. " Why hello there young ones!" He yelled out in glee, chuckling at the site of the two boys. Dock was suprised from the man appearing infront of him, and jumped back a tad bit, laughing. " Uhh, Hello there. I'm Kafuji, Dock, And this is Michaeru, Orion. We were searching for the Island in the sky....There is also someone who guards Earth, called the Earth Guardian. I guess we found both our goals." The man rubbed his chin, listening to Dock speak.

"Islands in the sky huh" the old man said as he picked up his wooden staff, he wore Japanese robes and had long white hair. His face was a little wrinkly but not bad. As he looked at Dock he chuckled to himself. "Well I guess since this has been the only floating island around then you found the place. Welcome Dock and Orion to the Karinto Plateau. For two who just battled Saiyans your still up and running I see" "Thats right...wait how do you know about that?" asked Orion. "From up here the Earth Guardian can see all and know all. Only those of great wisdom and strength are chosen to live among the hallow walls and places of mystery here. For centuries many have guarded Earth from here. Many proud warriors and heroes were forged here too" said the Old Man. "Do you know the Guardian? Also who are you?" asked Orion. "Me, my name is Chomaru, Chomaru Karuno. And yes I know the Guardian, wise and powerful he is. He was trained by the last Guardian, a sage by the name of Dende" said the old man. "Chomaru please, may we see the Guardian?" asked Orion. "Of course, he'll even train you. But first I ask one test to see if your worthy" said Chomaru as he stood still and looked at them both "Land one hit on me"

" Great! I'm comin' at you!!" Dock yelled, jumping in the air, swinging his fist towards Chomaru's face. He came close to hitting him, yet right as he was about to connect, His staff flung down upon his hand, blocking the attack. Dock shook his hand in pain, wincing slightly. He jumped forward, landed infront of him, jabbing forward profusely without stop attempting to atleast touch him. The old man looked weak yet he was fast and skilled. Dock couldn't even touch him, and he was even deadlier with that staff. As much as he attacked the man one would've thought that he would be tired out of his mind, yet Dock continued until five minutes later, walking backwards and letting Orion give it a shot.

Dcok's attemps were good but the old man just was'nt even scratched. "If he's this good imagine what the Guardian is like" said Orion as moved directly in front of Chomaru. Chomaru moved first and swung his staff at Orion. Orion blurred out of site, but Chomaru raised his fist up so it hit Chomaru on the jaw. Chomaru walked back in slight pain. Spitting some saliva out he charged in again and unleashed a fury of attacks. Chomaru began dodging and blocking him them. Orion was getting more and more fustrated, nothing he was doing was working. Chomaru blocked one punch and dropped to floor and drop kicked Orion. Orion hit the ground but quickly did a back flip. "Ho ho, you boys are skilled, but its gonna take more than that to take out this old geezer" laughed Chomaru. Orion smirked. "Okay than Old Geezer, lets see how you take this, Dock, together!" Orion shouted as he fired up his Ki and unleashed his energu Aura of flame red. Chomaru merely stood there and watched.

Dock emitted his pure white aura around his body, his power increasing greatly. " Lets get him!!" He said, assuming his fighting stance once more, preparing to attack him in unison with Orion. " We gotta beat this man....We have to!!" Yelled Dock once more, Powering up even further past his limits. " He was anxious to attack the man, yet he had to work together and that was a problem seeming this man was just as strong as the Saiyans he fought, if not more powerful. He began to think on how a human got that strong as he never sensed a human capable of atleast being one percent his power. He began to think that Chomaru might just be the Earth Guardian.

"Alright, lets...." "HYAAAA!" from its hand Chomaru fired a single energy blast directly at them both. "MOVE!" shouted Orion as he dodged to the left, hoping Dock would dodge as well. A exploion occured as he escaped. "Try this!" Orion shouted as fired a barrage of Ki Blasts directly at Chomaru. Chomaru did;nt even move but raised its free hand and began to knock them aside with ease. Orion clenched his fists and went in for another attack. Chomaru threw his stick into the air and used one hand to block the punch. Within a matter of seconds both fighters were going at amazing speeds. However no hits landed on Chomaru and when he saw a opening hit Orion in the chest with his palm sending Orion flying backwards directly over the edge. Chomaru merely smiled and caught his stick.

Dock jumped to his right, tumbling to the ground yet catching himself and standing back up. " Hm..Nice!" He yelled at Orion, seeing him go toe to toe with Chomaru. Chomaru then knocked him back and turned to face Dock. " You're mine!!" He yelled, charging forward and entering into a faster friasco of punches and kicks with the old Human. They were toe-to-toe and were on par in all of those bouts. Finally although, Chomaru caught his chest open and sent his foot crashing at him, connecting and sending him flying down the white tile. " d**n....that...hurt.." He said, getting up to one knee, wiping the dirt off of his shirt.

Chomaru laughed. "Well at least you got guts, but the Guardian won't train people like that" he said as he aimed his hand and generate energy aimed at Dock. However at the last few seconds he stopped. "What?" he said as a Heavy jacket and sword landed behind him. Looking up there was a mighty and powerful crash to the ground. "Still up I see" he chuckled but then his face became serious. Orion stood, his fists clenched, breat hwas heavy, nearly animal like. And his tail was moving like a madman. The breath soon became a growl, the growl got louder and louder until Orion let out a powerful cry, like a Roar of a Predator. His fists outstretched he continued to cry out, his eyes looked wild as he continued. Suddenly the tiles around him began to shake and clatter together, the palm trees began to bend sidewards, as if pushed by some invisible force. The cry got louder, then his Aura exploded, flame red burst out like a drgains flame, surrounding his body. Orion brought his head up and looked directly at Chomaru. His bretahing once again heavy. "I will not lose, I WILL NEVER LOSE!!!" he bellowed as he leapt directly at Chomaru who blocked just in time.

Dock had prepared to brace himself for the Ki attack, yet Orion was at it again. He was in the Half-Saiyan rage, smirking as if saying that he was impressed. " Get him Orion, this is your time to shine!" He yelled out, getting off of his one knee and clapping, cheering Orion on to fight Chomaru. Even though he knew that if his rage was unlocked he could beat him, He decided to not be selfish and let Orion have his claim to fame for once. After all, he was Dock's friend, and Dock already had the credit to beating Two saiyans, and being the strongest individual on Earth, when fully powered up and angered.

Chomaru tried his hardest, but this new side of Orion was strong, too strong. As Chomaru prepared to strike back Orion moved his head and landed a single punch, knocking the old man to the ground. At first the anger did not seem to stop but then Orion slowly calmed down. Chomaru got up and was chuckling. "Well, it was a weird way to do it but congratulations, you two can become my students" "Yours, but the Guardian..." begam Orion. "Is the guy you just had a fight with" said Chomaru. Silence fell over the place as Chomaru walked towards the central building. Orion just stood there, bemused at all this. "Well lets go, you wanted to train so lets train" said CHomaru, still chuckling.

Dock jumped up in glee, cheering. He walked towards the building, looking at the building, scanning it within his head. Chomaru opened the door showing a bright blue scenary with nothing visible besides that and the occasional cloud in the sky. There was no weather, nor was it hot or cold. It was just mellow in their,perfect environment to train in. He yawned, stretching out his muscles and smiling. His training would begin soon, and he wanted to be ready for it. He took off his shirt and pants revealing simple black undergarments. From his pants pocket he took a single capsule and popped it, throwing it to the ground. Out of a puff of smoke appeared his armor and white boots, Equipment he gathered from the space pod the Saiyans left. He put on the armor and slipped off his shoes, putting on the boots. He grabbed his clothes and through them a few feet away looking at Chomaru and then to Orion saying," So what to do now Chomaru? "

"We are going to spend a whole day in here" said Chomaru as he closed the door and pointed to the clock above it. "A day? but how exactly will that help?" asked Orion. "All will be revealed in time, in this place you will get all you need, food, beds, bathroom. Its like a endless void with a hotel room" joked Chomaru. After the clock moved a little he turned to the pair of them. "Now listen clearly boys, as you may have guessed you two posses very amazing skills. Skills which are rare on Earth. If you are determined to protect this world you must learn to harness and master the power within you. Advance it, and become stronger with every second you train. First I want you both to show me your strongest attack you know so far" said Chomaru.
