When life turns 'round



.....CHULA VISTA, CALIFORNIA......

" It is a beautiful, sunny day in Cali. Great day for the beach. High for today is 98 and the low would be 89. Next on Coast to Coast, What can you do to prevent hearing loss." The newscaster said, overly excited. " Turning you off, would be one way." Alex, a thirteen year old tomboy turned off the tv. " Come on, Al. Come to the beach with me." Alex's bestfriend, Hanna, said, putting on her two piece briteny-like bathing suit. " Why? I mean, you put on these bathing suits, that make you look like a slut, which to make things worse, you have guys looking at you all the time, with thier eyes bugged out, and their mouths hung low."Alex said getting up from the chair she was sitting in. " Alex, you make it sound like a bad thing." " Hanna! It is a bad thing when guys look at you like a walking billboard for sluts-r-us." " Oh, it isn't that bad. Maybe we'll see Cody.....hmm.. Wanna go know??" Hanna said, remember her tomboy friend had a crush on a boy named Cody. "Hanna, I don't like him like that." " Come on, You know you like him. You don't have to wear that blue one. Wear that black one you have.. You know, the tank-inee." " Ok. Lemme put it on. Then I'll grab my towel." Alex, walked upstairs to her room, and got her bathing suit out, and put it on. She grabbed a towel. Hanna decided she was taking so long, so she walked up, to see what was taking sooo long. " Alex, are you sure this isn't Reese's room?" Hanna said, looking at all the fighting stuff around Alex's room. " I mean, fighting gis..... wrist bands....Tae-bo." " What? So, I like fighting. I could beat that stupid Summer's butt from here to mercury and back." " Well, come on. " " ok, ok. I'm ready." " Great. See I told you, that it would look great with your hair!" Hanna said, dragging Alex out the back door, down to the beach. Alex, had dark brown eyes, black hair with red highlights. Hanna, had dirty blonde hair, brown eyes, with a few streaks of blue in her hair. Alex was about 5'10 and Hanna was 5'7. Just a few feet from the door, Alex forgot to write her parents a note. " Hanna, be right back." Alex ran into her beach house, in to the kitchen. She wrote her mom and dad a note telling them where she was, and that Hanna was over. " Ok, let's go. I'm ready to get in the water, is it hot out herre!"" Ok, let's go. Sandy and Anna are waiting for us. " Ok, Sandy needs to give me back my Linkin Park cd." Then the girls ran down to the beach. " Hey guys!" Sandy called over the girls. " hey Girl!" Hanna yelled out. " Hey." Alex said. " Did Sam come with ya'll." Alex said, looking for her other best friend. " Yeah, he just went to get some drinks." Anna said, laying down her towel. " ok." Then Alex and Hanna laid down their towels, and put on sun screen. " Hey Alex, Hanna, Sandy, and Anna." A brown headed boy with blond highlights came up to the group. " Hey Cody." Alex, and the rest said.

Sam had came back from getting the drinks. " Hey Al. Volleyball?" Sam said, laying down his beach towel. " Hey Cody." Sam said noticing the other boy. " Sure Sam. You're going down." " Schyeah right. You're on." " Bring it on." Then Sam and Alex set up for Volleyball. " Hanna, join?" Alex asked her sunbathing friend. " Naw... I'm gonna catch some rays." Hanna said, grabbing her sunglasses. Cody on the other hand, was flirting with Sandy, but Alex did not notice. ( an: or their would be a WWF smackdown) " yeah, your eyes are preety, like crystal lakes." Cody said to Sandy. " Really?" " Yeah, would youse like to go to Mac's Diner with me tomarrow night?" Cody asked the hearstruck Sandy. " Yeah, I'd love to!" " Ok, meet me at The Pier. Tomarrow night." " Ok." Then Cody walked off to be with his friends. " Did you see what just happened?!" Sandy said, excitedly to Anna and Hanna. " Yeah, you just got asked out by the most popular guy at Jackson middle!" Anna said, Hanna who was not much attention just said a ' yeah, yeah.' then turned over. Alex had noticed the commotion due to she was kicking Sam's butt. " Ok, Ok! I give up. I can't win." Sam said, exhaustedly. " No one can win agianst me!!!" Alex said a pose. Then she turned around and saw Sandy daydreaming. While Sam was sitting down, catching his breath. " What's so daydreamy, Sandy?" Alex said, sitting down. " I just got asked out by CODY!" Alex about choked on her drink. " Cody S-Simoneaux?!" Alex said, fearing the worst. " Yeah! Isn't he dreamy?" " Yeah, whatever." Alex said, totally angry with her ' friend '. " Hanna. I'm gonna go home now." Alex said, getting up. "What's wrong Al?" Sam asked. " Oh, It just got a little crowded." Alex said, glaring at Sandy, but she didn't notice. " Ok, Alex. Don't forget I'm spending the night." Hanna said. " Ok, I'll tell mom and dad. See you later guys." Then Alex ran up to her house, with tears in her eyes. " I'm gonna go see what's wrong." Sam said, grabbing his towel. " Ok, see ya Sam." Anna said. Then Sam ran up to see what was wrong with Alex.

Alex opened the door and threw down her stuff and ran to her room. Sam was right behind her. Alex didn't even close her door and started crying. " I HATE THAT SANDY!" Alex screamed. " I wish I had anouther life!" She screamed agian. Sam noticed her stuff and walked up to her room. " Alex?" SAm asked as he walked through the hallway. Then he noticed her crying. " Al. What's wrong?" " Sandy. That's what's wrong!" Alex said. " Oh, The Cody deal." " Yeah." " Don't worry about it. He's just some stuck up jock." " Yeah. Hey, want some popcorn. I'm missing Spongebob." " Can't live without that sponge." "Yeah, come on. I'll call mom and tell her your over." " Ok." Then the two walked down stairs..

" Hanna, what was wrong with Alex? I told her I'm going on a date with Cody and she left." " did you say Cody?" " Yeah, why?" " Oh, God. I gotta go." Then Hanna got her stuff and ran to Alex's. " Alex?" " Yeah, in here Hanna." Alex said. " Oh, hey Sam. OOOO! Spongebob!" " Yeah, have some popcorn." " k" Then they started watch Spongebob, and singing the theme song. " OOOOOO! Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? SPONGEBOB SQAUREPANTS! Spongy, yellow and porous as he? SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS! Nautical nonsense be someting you wish? SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS! Then jump on the deck and flop like a fish! SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS! ect...." Hanna and Alex sang along, Sam just looked at them like they were scychos.

.......SATAN CITY, JAPAN...... DRAGONBALL Z UNIVERSE........

KNOCK KNOCK! There was a knock on the door and Trunks got up from watching a television show to get it. " I got it mum!" " Ok, dear." Trunks opened the door to be greeted by a spicky haired boy and a shorter girl, both had ebony hair. " Hey, Goten. Hey Pan." " Sup,. dude." " Hey Trunks." " Hey wanna spar?" Goten asked. " Sure, I'll be out there in a sec." " Ok." Then Goten ran outside. " Um, Pan... could I ask you something?" " Sure." " Well, I've known you all my life and you know that.... I was wondering if you would be my girlfriend." " That's soo sweet. But, I'm sorry Trunks. I don't feel the same way about you. I am really sorry, but I can't help the way I feel." " Oh, ok. That's fine." " Are you sure?" " Yeah, maybe a bit sad, but just fine!" Trunks said, witha smile." Still best friends?" Pan said, hoping she hadn't ruined thier friendship. " Sure Panny. We'll never not be friends." " Great! I'm gonna go see what Bra is up to." " Ok." Then Pan ran upstairs. ' Well, not the way I expected it. But, no use crying over it. It wasn't meant to be and that's, that. Anyways, she was going to ask out that James dude. Hope she finds happyness. I'll always have a place for you Panny.' Trunks thought then went outside. He knew he didn't have a chance, but decided to go with it anyways. " Soo, What did she say?" Goten asked, knowing what Trunks was doing. " Oh, she said no." " Oh, sorry dude. " " Hey, That's ok Goten. It wasn't meant to be." " Well, I guess your right. Let's spar. " " Ok." Then the two got in position. While this was going on Bulma was having her own fight..

" VEGETA! It's not going to hurt. Just try it once!" Bulma pleaded with her husband. "Woman! It dosn't even look edible!" Vegeta, cringed at the food set before him. " you said you wanted lunch, and I gave it to you!" " This isn't lunch! It's clog cleaner!" " VEGETA! MY COOKING ISN'T THAT BAD!" " Then you eat it!" " FINE I WILL!" Bulma then got a fork, and took a big mouth full of the concocktion. She immidediatly spit it out. " YUCK!" " See, I told you, Woman. " " Yes, Vegeta. You told me. Now take out?" " Why not. Can't be as bad as your cooking." Vegeta. I heard that." Then she called The Pizza Shack for some take out pizza.

" Bra, it's me.. Can I come in?" Pan knocked on Bra's door. " Yeah." Then Pan opened the door. " Hey Maron!" Pan said. " So, what do you wanna do?" Pan asked. " I dunno. we're bored." Bra said, Maron nodded in agreement. " Oh! I'll tell you what happened before I came up here." Pan said, knowing the two girls loved gossip. " Oh, goody!" Bra and Maron squealed. " Well, we came and Trunks opened the door. Goten asked to spar and Trunks say he would, that he'd be out there in a sec." Pan paused to see the reaction of Maron and Bra. " WELL!?" Both girls asked impatientially. " Well, right before I went upstairs, Trunks stopped me, wanting to ask me something." " Ooooooo.. I like this." Bra said. Then pan continued. " He told me that he knew me all my life and all that. And he asked me to be his girlfriend." Pan stopped, and looked at Bra and Maron. Both girls squealed. "Sooo, What did you say Pan?" Maron asked, her eyes twinkling in excitment. " I told him that was sweet but I didn't feel that way about him. He was a little disapointed but, I asked him Still best friends? And he said sure." " Oh, he must be a bit down." " Yeah, but he'll get over it. It wasn't meant to be." " Yeah. your right. Oh! Lemme tell you what John told me!" Maron said, all three girls, deeply in gossiping. " What?!" PAn and Bra asked. " Pan, you actually wanna gossip? I thought you were a tomboy?" " Well, I am. I like to hear about gossip. I wanna hear who I can humiliate...." Then pan laughed demonically and Maron continued. " Well, he said that Julie said that Carl said that Jimmy said that Killy said that Jake said that he liked Bra!" Maron squealed. " That's all?" Pan said, dully. " He said he liked me?!" Bra asked. She had a crush on this Jake for sometime. " Yep! Oh, I got something Pan would like." Maron continued, seeing the expression on Pan's face. " I heard, that during lunch friday. Jamie, you know from french class. He said that Kiko asked him out! Then he said no, she ran off, ran into the garbage bin and into the principal!!"Maron said. " HAH HA! I got some dirt on somebody!" Pan said then laughed. " Hey! Let's go to the arcade!" Pan said. " Sure, Well, let's go." Maron said. " Ok, but I am going to beat you this time Pan!" " Yeah right!" Then the three girls left for the arcade. ( a/n: They live only a few blocks away from it so they walked. oh.. Pan=13 Bra=13 Maron=14.......Trunks= 14 Goten=13 )

" Ok, Trunks. I give. You beat me." Goten said, huffing for air. " HAHAAHAHA!" Trunks said, and helped up his friend. " Fair and square?" " Fair and square." " Hey, I'm hungry, you?" Trunks asked. Goten's stomach growled. " Well, there's your answer." " Come on, Mom bought some more food!" Then Trunks and Goten ran insde to get something to eat.

" Ok, mom!" Alex yelled downstairs. Then she and Hanna went down to eat. " What's for dinner mom?" Alex askd as she and Hanna sat down. " Oh, spagettie and meatballs, a salad and banana pudding for dessert." Alex's mom replied, setting down the food. " Oh, yummmy!" Alex said, as she put some on her plate. " Thank you for letting me spend the night Mrs. Lisa." Hanna said to Alex's mom. " No problem Hanna. YOu can spend the night anytime you like sweeite." Then Alex's mom and dad grabbed thier plates and started eating. During dinner an idea came to Hanna. " Alex, know what would be cool?" Hanna asked Alex, who was eating her spagettie. " Hm?" " If we were sucked up in somekind of vortex and sent to a different universe!" " Hey! That would be cool." Alex's mom and dad laughed. "What immaginations you two girls have." Alex's dad said, and chuckled. " What? It would be cool." Alex said, sipping her drink. " Yes, I guess it would be Al." Lisa Woodriff, alex's mom, said, as she got up and put her plate in the sink and got some dessert. " Yeah." Alex and Hanna said and started eating agian. They finished and grabbed some pudding and then put their plates in the sink. " That was good mom!" Alex said, getting up. " Yeah, that was delicious Mrs. Lisa. And Thank you." " You're welcome girls." " Mom we're going to go watch tv." " Ok, but don't get too close. You know what that does to your eyes." Yes." Then Alex and Hanna started walking to the livving room, but stopped when a bright light lit up the room. When it faded, there was a vortex type thing in the middle of the room. Hanna nad Alex gasped. " Oh god. Get away from there girls!" Alex's mom yelled as her husband was looking at the vortex with confusion. " Mom, we're trying, but we can't move!" Alex yelled, as the vortex was sucking them in. " ALEX!! HANNA!!" Her mom and dad yelled as both girls were being sucked in. Just before the were sucked in, Alex grabbed her favorite gi that was on the chair, while Hanna was screaming, trying to hold on to a chair. " Mom! Dad!! We can't get away from it!!" Then the vortex sucked up Alex and Hanna, then it disapeared. " ALLEXX!!!! HAANNNA!!!" Lisa screamed and fell to her knees crying. Alex's dad looked in disbelief. " Where'd they go?!" Jon( alex's dad) asked, frantically. " I don't know! Will we ever get them back!?" Lisa asked her husband crying. " I don't know dear. I don't know. All we can do is hope and pray. Should we call Debora and Frank, about Hanna?" " Yes, I guess we should." Lisa got up and dialed Hanna's number. She told Hanna's mother that she should come over, they have some important information. They had came over and Alex's mom and dad were explaining the whole.... vortex thing. " Oh God... Hanna. Can we get them back?" Debora asked Lisa. " Jon says he dosn't know." " Oh, god.... my baby!" Debora cried and started crying. " ALEX.... my little girl!!" Lisa then started. " Now, honey. Don't worry. We can't do anything. All we can do is wait." Frank told his wife. " Frank's right dear." Jon told his wife. " WAIT?! Wait?! My baby's just got sucked up in that thing, and you say WAIT?!" Lisa cried. " Yes. I know you are very worried, so am I but, there's nothing we can do." " Yes, you're right. All we can do is pray and wait." Lisa said, comforting her friend. " I can't belive this happend. But, you're right. There's nothign we can do." " Deb. Do you wanna stay for dessert? " Lisa said, trying to cheeer up her friend. " Why thank you. I'd love you Lisa. Thank you." Debora said, as Frank said his thank you and sat down. " It's no problem." Lisa then got some plates and gave everyone some pudding.
