The Origin of Dragon Ball

     The Story begins with the birth of Sun Wukong from pure rock. Being born from stone, Wukong was not a normal monkey. He is a bit crazy and impolite, but he can do much more then any other monkey; he can think like a human. He becomes the king of the monkeys and lives in the mountian of friut and flowers. But after living for several decades, Sun Wukongs begins to fear death.

     In order to attain this wish, he travels to a temple where he meets a high-priest. After much training Sun Wokong learns magic, how to fight and the secret of long life. With his training, he learned how to jump very far, ride on clouds, and to make up to 72 copies of him self.

     Needing a wepond it defend him, Sun Wokong travels to the home of the Dragon King in the sea. He steals a treasured weapon from Dragon King, a rod that can exstend to the heavens at his will. Having upset the Dragon King he is taken to the heavens so that the gods to keep their eye on him. But while there, Wukong eats sacred immortality peaches (which he becomes drunk on).

     He returns to his Mountain of Flowers and Fruit and rages war on the Heavens (He was pretty ticked off at them for just keep him there, just so he stayed out of trouble). His battle for the Heaven was futile and after survived bouts against the likes of the Ox Demon King, he and his army were defeated by the power of the Gods. At the end of the battle, Sun Wukong was to be executed, but because he had consumed the peaches of immortality he could not be killed.

     Tathaga (which means "thus gone" eg. having attained nirvana), who is Buddha, offered Sun Wukong a chance to go free if he could jump a very great distance from him. Having learned the secret of jump very far, Sun Wukong jumps an incredible distance and lands near a base of a mountain of a great mountain. To prove he was there he marks his territory and jumps back to Buddha. As things turn out he only jumped across Buddha's palm! And that mountian was one of his fingers!!!!!

     Buddha decides Sun Wukong's punishment and seals him under the Five-Fingered Mountain. After several hundred years, he is released from the mountain and as a payment for being released; he escorts the monk Tripitaka on his journy. And thus begins the journy West!
