Dragon Ball Z Infinity/The Day of the Dragon (episode)

Season 2, Episode 1
== Cold Open ==
The season and episode cold opens with a flashback to the moment that Trunks killed Vollena. Every fiber of the god’s existence was erased.
Cut to Madden’s spaceship on planet New Titania. In the bedroom section of the spaceship were four beds. A dresser was situated in the middle of the room. Lavender slept on the far right bed with a loud snore. Under the bed was her urn. Millions of miles away from Earth, the urn felt what just took place. Vollena was killed. It begins to rattle like crazy before suddenly stopping. A small crack forms.
Cut to the title sequence and opening credits.
After opening credits, we see a slow zoom-in of planet Yardrat. Cut to a celebration of epic proportions in a Yardrat town. The town’s name was briefly shown on the screen:
== Togota - 3 days after Vollena's defeat ==
At the center of the town was a Yardrat statue holding up the Infinity Sword. This is symbolism for the Yardrat people’s greatest accomplishment in reassembling the sword. Cut to Ramon who looked on in exuberance.
Ramon: Today is a wonderful day.
Goku (voice): Hey!
Goku, in his Yardrat outfit, walked up beside Ramon and pointed to the Infinity Sword.
Goku: How did you get the Infinity Sword up there? I saw how much pain you were in when you held it.
Ramon: Two of my colleagues built something that allowed me to hold the sword without all that pain.
Ramon tapped the wristwatch he was wearing while Goku observed. The wristwatch transformed into two mechanized gauntlets which snugly fit Ramon’s hands. Goku was amazed.
Goku: Woah, cool!
Ramon: Aren’t they!? They’re called Atomic Gloves. Too bad the sword doesn’t work when you wear them. Otherwise, I’d just skip the training altogether.
Some of Earth’s strongest warriors were also present for the festivities, all dressed up for the occasion. Krillin, Android 18, and Marron are seen playing around with the Yardrat children. Gohan is seen happily talking with Dr. Prehx. Vegeta and Piccolo stand by themselves, simply observing.
A Yardrat walks over to Vegeta with a tray of beverages.
Togota Yardrat #1: Hey, would you like to try one of these? They’re really good.
Vegeta takes a bright pink drink in an elegant glass. Taking a sip, he immediately spits it out in disgust.
Vegeta: What the hell is this trash!?
Togota Yardrat #1 is taken aback.
Togota Yardrat #1: It’s… it’s called Muckelixir Surprise.
Vegeta: No wonder it tastes like garbage! Anything with the word “Surprise” does.
Piccolo looks at Vegeta’s frustrations with a sly grin. Gohan rubs the back of his head, feeling sorry for the guy who was just trying to be nice.
A voice came up behind Goku and Ramon.
Unknown Voice: Well, well, well. This must be the famous Goku.
They turned around.
Ramon: Dad!
Ramon and his father embraced.
Goku: Yep, that's me! And I guess you're the famous Yamon.
Yamon: Me famous? Maybe when the sky starts raining dragons.
Ramon patted his father on the shoulders.
Ramon: I'm so glad you two could meet.
Yamon: Me too.
Goku paid his respects to Yamon.
Goku: Whatever you taught your son really paid off.
Yamon: I didn't teach him squat about any of this. But I'm totally fine with taking some credit.
Yamon gave Ramon a playful elbow bump.
Yamon: I did give him life, after all.
Goku: Wait, seriously? You aren't a scientist?
Yamon: Let's just say I have a latent "intelligent" gene that recessed me but dominated my son.
Goku scratched the back of his head.
Goku (in his mind): This sounds like another one of King Kai's unfunny jokes.
Cut to Gohan and Dr. Prehx.
Gohan: So what do you guys plan on doing with the Infinity Sword? Y'know, when everything's set with Ramon's training.
Dr. Prehx: We're gonna hit the ground running. One of the first things that we want to do is travel through a black hole.
Gohan was astonished.
Gohan: Holy cow! That's huge! You sure you want to start with that?
Dr. Prehx: Absolutely. There's so much we could learn from black holes. We were thinking over different ways we could use the Infinity Sword to cross into one.
Gohan: Mhmm… like what?
Dr. Prehx briefly put his hands behind his head and sighed.
Dr. Prehx: We could use the Infinity Sword for negative mass wave generation or dark matter counterbalancing.
Gohan crossed his arms. Krillin, Android 18, and Marron comically chased a Yardrat child in the background.
Gohan: All of that is theoretical.
Dr. Prehx: But we now have the means to potentially do those things.
Gohan: I know the Infinity Sword risk worked out, but if anything doesn't work here, you all will get turned into spaghetti. The black hole is a freak of nature.
Dr. Prehx: Which is why we're determined to explore it.
Cut to blaring trumpet-like instruments being sounded by various natives across Togota. Many of the people started clamoring for Ramon to give a public speech.
Various Togota Yardrats: Speech! Speech! SPEECH!!!
Cut to Goku, Ramon, and Yamon.
Yamon: Well, are you gonna keep them waiting?
Ramon: I guess not.
Ramon ran towards the statue until he was just under it. He was handed a microphone. Ramon then flew up until he was right beside the Infinity Sword.
Ramon: I’m so glad to celebrate this momentous day with you all!
The crowd cheered in agreement.
Ramon: We’re a people of risk-takers. That’s how we created and refined Instant Transmission: A technique that allows us to travel anywhere in space as long as there’s a significant enough ki signature to bind us to our destination. Now with the Infinity Sword right beside me here, we can innovate new techniques, create new technologies, and discover new frontiers.
Slow pan of the audience and the Earth warriors. We then see that Yardrats around the world were getting a televised viewing of Ramon’s speech. Cut back to Ramon.
Ramon: Obviously, it’s not going to be easy. Like Instant Transmission, using the Infinity Sword is going to require a lot of training.
Ramon points to Goku.
Goku waves his hand cheerfully as the crowd claps.
Ramon: Luckily, a few friends from Earth will aid me with that training. With their help and our resources, I’m confident that we will enter a groundbreaking age of prosperity. Not only for us, but possibly for the universe as well.
Cut to Goku and Yamon as Ramon continues his speech over much applause.
Goku: Earlier you mentioned something about raining dragons, right?
Yamon: Yeah?
Goku: Well, what do you think about seeing a real dragon up-close?
== Earth - A couple hours later at Kame House ==
Cut to a wide view of the ocean surrounding Kame House. Zooming in on the island, we see the seven Dragon Balls were brought together. Goku, Gohan, Krillin, Piccolo, Ramon, Yamon, Master Roshi, and Turtle surrounded the Dragon Balls as they began to shine.
Yamon: Woah, what’s happening?
Goku: The dragon is about to come out. His name is Shenron.
Ramon: Incredible.
The skies grew dark. The ground began to tremble. Then, in a yellow aura, the Eternal Dragon Shenron spiralled out of the Dragon Balls in all his glory. Ramon and Yamon were enthralled by the dragon; mouths ajar.
Goku: Pretty cool, huh?
Yamon: I…
The two Yardrats were at a complete loss for words. Shenron dispersed the yellow aura, fully revealing himself up above the island.
Shenron: You have disturbed my slumber. Speak your first wish.
Yamon fainted. Ramon caught his father.
Ramon: Dad? Dad! The nerves must’ve really got to him.
Krillin: Is he going to be alright?
Ramon: Yeah, he will.
Goku looks up to Shenron.
Goku: Shenron! I wish for you to bring back to life everyone on Earth that died because of Vollena!
Shenron: So it shall be.
Shenron’s eyes briefly glowed red.
Cut to various cities around the world. We see loved ones, children, and everyone killed by Vollena’s assault on Earth revived. Families were restored, hearts were mended, and order was already being reinstated.
Cut back to Kame House.
Shenron: Now speak your second wish.
Goku: Hmm… what should the second wish be?
Gohan: Why not just wish that Ramon can never get exhausted from using Infinity Sword? That way he won’t even need to train.
Goku: Yeah, I guess that could work. What do you think, Ramon?
Zooming-in on Ramon. Indecision gripped him.
Shenron: You are testing my patience. Declare your second wish.
Then, Ramon made a decision. With a bit of fear, he said…
Ramon: I wish that planet Panapit was restored to the way it was! The trees, the plants, the animals, the water, all of it! C-Can you do that?
Shenron: Yes. It is within my power.
While the rest of the guys stood there stupefied by Ramon’s decision, Krillin smiled at him. Shenron’s eyes briefly glowed red again.
== Panapit - Moments later ==
Cut to the ledge just outside of the Panapite cave. We see a familiar blue-skinned boy keeping watch over the horizon. Demarion. He saw nothing but the rocky, yellowish, & dead landscape laid out in front of him for miles. But then he spots something.
A light blue energy beam suddenly flew down from the sky towards the ground. The boy is overcome with despair and ran back to the cave entrance.
Cut to the inside of the cave where the remnants of the Panapite people upheld their society. The Sect of the Reliquiae. Demarion ran inside.
Demarion: Danger! Danger!! DANGER!!!
The chief elder Fatheron then exclaimed…
Fatheron: What is it, boy!?
A blinding light and ear-splitting thunder then consumed the cave, throwing the whole society into a panic.
Valentano (voice): Demarion! Demarion!! Follow my voice!
Demarion followed his father’s voice until he was in his arms.
Then… the light eventually dissipated. And the thunder eventually ceased. The people opened their eyes and uncovered their ears; and found nothing was destroyed.
Fatheron: Demarion…
Valentano: No, I’ll go.
Valentano opened the door to the outside of the cave. He slowly walked out, not knowing what to anticipate. He conjured an offensive rune spell, but then quickly withdrew it. Valentano looked around for a few moments before his knees buckled.
What once was a dead husk of a planet, was now teeming with vegetation & life.
Valentano: Ho-How is this p-possible?
Even the barren ledge that led to the cave got its round of abundant foliage. Valentano felt the grass beneath him. His eyes swelled up with tears. It was the first time that he touched real grass in his life. He then looked out into the horizon, tears full of confused joy.
Cut to a panoramic view of the transformed world of Panapit. The creatures of the air, land, & sea sang their beautiful melodies. Many trees of the world spiralled upwards to hundreds of feet tall! They, along with the smaller plants, bore their delectable fruit.
Valentano (voice): This is how the history books described the world before the Global Reset. I’d never thought I’d see the day that… that-
Valentano couldn’t keep his train of thought. It derailed into a massive emotional breakdown.
Fatheron was the second to come out of the cave. Then Demarion, then the rest of the Panapite people. No words could describe the amount of joy & exuberance that the Panapites expressed that day. After over a century, they finally had their planet back.
== Earth - Kame House ==
Cut back to Kame House.
Shenron: It is done. Your wishes have been fulfilled. Farewell.
Shenron encapsulates himself in a yellow aura and flies higher into the sky. The Dragon Balls fly up with him. The Eternal Dragon then disappears with a flash of lightning while the Dragon Balls disperse among the Earth as common rocks. The skies lighten up.
Goku: Ramon, why did you make that wish?
Ramon: I paid all of you for helping me assemble the Infinity Sword. And I wanted to pay someone else for giving me their piece of the sword, but in their ravaged world, money doesn’t mean anything. So—I think they’re far more thankful for having their world back rather than a few million worth of money.
Piccolo: That’s really honorable of you.
Yamon: Yeah, seriously.
Ramon: Thanks, but I’m still getting this nagging feeling in my head that I’m forgetting someone else.
== Outer Space - 18 days away from Namek at current speed ==
Cut to Madden’s ship in the outer reaches of space.
Thrune (voice): DAMMIT!
Cut to the inside of the bedroom section of the ship. Thrune smashes his hand against the wall with enough force that the whole ship felt it. This scares his fellow crewmates Amelia and Lavender who were also in the bedroom.
Amelia: Thrune, what are you doing!?
Lavender: What’s your problem now!?
Thrune: That thieving alien that took my piece of the Infinity Sword NEVER PAID ME BACK!
Madden runs into the bedroom. Not pleased.
Madden: I will throw you out of here myself if you keep that up!
Thrune: Try it. You and I both know that I’m stronger than you.
Madden: I know this is your mission and you're the leader, but this is my ship and I’m the captain of it! I’m the one that has to cover anything that happens to her!
Amelia: Guys! Alright, everybody calm down. Thrune, you’ve been on edge lately. What’s going on?
Lavender looked under her bed and pulled her urn from there. She then noticed a small crack formed near the bottom of it.
Lavender: Oh my.
Cut back to the other three.
Thrune: On edge? What does that mean?
Amelia: It means abnormally impatient, irritable, and tense.
Thrune: In that case, I’ve been on edge for nearly my whole life.
Madden: Can confirm.
Amelia sighed.
Amelia: Thrune… you’ve been-
Lavender: Team!
Lavender skedaddled to her crewmates. She briefly pointed to the small crack.
Lavender: Something happened to my urn.
Thrune: A small crack. Happens to the best of us.
Lavender: No, this is a magical urn.
Thrune: Of course it is.
Madden: Lav, is it something that we should be concerned about?
Lavender: If it’s just this small crack, then no. This urn is a keepsake that I got from my mama. She said it contained a very powerful spirit not meant to be played with.
Amelia: Don’t you have anything in your satchel that can fix it?
Lavender: Nothing does the job better than some good ol’ pottery tools.
She peered at Madden.
Madden: Sorry, the pottery shop is closed.
Lavender drooped her head in an exaggerated manner. She then fell back into her bed.
Madden: I’m going back to the captain’s room. No more ruckus, please.
Madden left the bedroom. Amelia tugged Thrune’s right arm.
Amelia: Come with me to the kitchen.
Amelia playfully pulled Thrune’s arm as he followed her to the kitchen area of the ship. Equipped with a fridge, microwave, stove, oven, sink, small dining table, and a wealth of ingredients, the kitchen was ready to roll.
Thrune: What are we doing here?
Amelia: I want to offer you a trade deal.
Thrune grinned, then chuckled.
Thrune: A what?
Amelia: I want to offer YOU a trade deal. You train me in fighting, and I train you in cooking.
Thrune: Where are you even going with this?
Amelia searched through the cabinets until she found a container of vanilla extract.
Amelia: Here, smell this.
She opened the cap and put the container up near his nostrils.
Thrune: Wow, that smells great.
Amelia: Exactly. You see—the spices, the seasonings, and aromas you smell when cooking food can be a tremendous stress reliever. It calls back memories from better times and helps form connections with people who love the same food you do.
Thrune: You’re forgetting one little thing, Amelia. I don’t need to eat food, I just need water and air.
Amelia’s eyes lit up.
Amelia: I-I did forget that.
Thrune closed the cap on the vanilla extract and put it back where it was.
Thrune: If that’s all you wanted to show me, then-
Amelia: Wait, can you just cook with me to be with me? Not all the time just… sometimes.
Thrune: Training starts tomorrow.
Thrune turned his back toward Amelia who was saddened by his response. But then he felt a small conviction that his response was too apathetic. Alas, he continued to carry on out of the kitchen.
Thrune walked past Lavender who was still staring down the crack on the urn.
== Earth - Capsule Corporation ==
Cut to the outside of Capsule Corp at night. A few helicopters flew by the building.
Cut to inside, we see Trunks’ room. A bit messy with clothes hanging around. Trunks laid on his bed, fingering the strings of a bass guitar. He tried to emulate the melody of the beginning of X-Japan’s song Kurenai. Someone knocked on his door. Trunks stopped playing.
Trunks: Come in!
Bulma opened the door and looked around the room.
Bulma: Didn’t I tell you to clean up your room earlier?
Trunks: Yeah, sorry.
Trunks got up from the bed and started putting away the clothes hanging around.
Bulma: Huh, since when did you start playing the bass?
Trunks: Oh uh—a couple weeks ago. I looked up some tutorials and then got started.
Trunks opened his closet and put away his dress shirts on hangers.
Trunks: It’s been pretty cool so far.
Bulma: Yeah, you don’t sound half bad. Y’know, I tried to get your father to sing a love song for me once.
Trunks: Oh really? How did that go?
Bulma: He blushed like a red tomato.
Trunks chuckled, leading Bulma to laugh with him.
Bulma: Come down when you’re finished. Dinner is ready.
Cut downstairs to the dining room a few minutes after, an array of exquisite foods were shown.
* Two big pots of chicken & vegetable soup.
* Half a dozen pulled pork sandwiches.
* Ten hot dogs.
* A big tray of lasagna.
* Two extra large pieces of steak.
* A dozen empanadas.
* And three chocolate cakes.
Vegeta, Bulma, Trunks, and Bulla sat around the table and said their grace. Bulma and Bulla had their plates set out for them beforehand. After grace, Vegeta and Trunks chowed down the food like there was no tomorrow. Bulma took small bites out of her hot dog while serving a little chicken & vegetable soup to Bulla.
As time went on, the plates stacked up and the food diminished until there was nothing left.
Trunks: That was delicious.
Vegeta: Yes, I agree.
Bulma: I’ll pass the compliments to the chef. What do you think, Bulla?
Bulla made happy baby noises.
Trunks: Looks like she agrees too.
Bulma: So are you gonna train with Goku and Ramon, Vegeta?
Vegeta: No. Kakarot is a respectable fighter, but I must find my own way to train for the use of that sword.
Bulma: Okay, but how are you gonna do that? I don’t recall your regiments being that mentally stimulating.
Vegeta: What is that supposed to mean!?
Bulma: I’m not calling your regiments dumb, it’s just—I don’t know.
Trunks: I think I understand what you're trying to say. Ramon said that willpower was far more important in wielding the Infinity Sword than raw strength. And he’s right. When I held that thing, it felt like my entire body was… burning inside of the sun. The only thing that made me endure it was my hate for Vollena. That parasite took over Goten and Gohan. Treated them and everyone else like worthless dirt.
Vegeta: So you channeled that rage, then used it to defeat Vollena.
Trunks: Yeah, exactly.
This gave Vegeta pause.
Vegeta: Hmm. I just thought of something then. Excuse me.
Vegeta got up from his seat, opting to leave the dining room.
Trunks: Dad, wait.
Vegeta stopped in his tracks.
Vegeta: What is it?
Trunks: Can you tell me more about that time when you tried singing to mom?
Vegeta blushed around the cheeks and didn’t bother answering the question. He left the dining room. Bulma gave Trunks a “see what I mean” look.
Cut back to the outside of the Capsule Corporation building. About a mile away from it lies Dream Land.
== Dream Land ==
The amusement park that Kid Goku and friends went to during their tussle with the Red Ribbon Army. The entire park was situated about a thousand feet in the air, supported by a beam tower. All the rollercoasters, mechanical rides, tents, & fair games were located inside of a tempered glass dome. The multi-colored lights shined brightly across West City at night. In the present day, the park was doing better than ever.
Cut to the inside, we see Goku, Chi-Chi, and Goten at the admission booth.
Goku: Three tickets, please!
Goku handed the booth attendant some zeni. Chi-Chi hugged her husband.
Chi-Chi: Thanks for doing this, Goku.
Goku: Sure! I figured this would be something nice to do for the three of us.
The attendant then gave them three tickets.
Booth Attendant: Have fun!
The three of them entered the main section of the busy amusement park and looked around in wonder.
Chi-Chi: Gee wiz, there’s so much to do.
Goku: Yeah, no kidding. Not even sure where to start.
Goten: Oh, I know…
Cut to the three of them riding down and up an inverted roller coaster named The Serpent. They embraced the thrill of the ride and enjoyed every moment of it. Cut to a close-up of Goku’s face.
Goku: Wahoo!
Cut to black, then roll the end credits.
More, More, More, (End Credits song)
