Well here is a story I have been working on for some time and have really been looking forward to sharing with all of you. I hope you like this oneJ Oh and just as a heads up there will be mentioning of Bleach a little tiny bit.

Disclaimer: I don't own Dragon Ball Z just some other random people in this story.

It was hot summer day, and the scenery was beautiful but that seemed to be the last thing on a woman's mind as she staggered along a path. She was wearing tattered clothes, some worn out boots, her dark red hair was a rats nest of nots. She was drenched in sweat and dirt that cover her head to toe. Her breathing was arctic, she struggled to lift her feet as she leaned on trees or the long stick she had.

"Have - to keep going." she muttered to herself, as she wiped away sweat from her brow. "Have to -" she was cut off when her foot caught on a root and she headed down a steppe hill. She hit rocks and trees on the way down.

Unknown to her Goten and Trunks had been sparing nearby when they heard her falling thought the brush and being curious, had gone to look. She had just hit the bottom of the hill when they saw her, and ran over. She was trying to get up, wiping blood from her eye that was coming from a cut on her head when they stopped right in front of her.

"Hey are you ok?" Goten asked her. She was barley abele to look up at the two of them before she passed out.

"I take that a no." Trunks said he bent over her and touched her forehead. "She's burning up, Goten go back to your house and get help, now. I'll stay here and watch her. If you're not back in 15 I'll raise my power level in case you can't remember where we are."

"Got it, be right back." Goten said as he took to the sky and headed home.

When he saw his house he spotted both his mom and Bulma sitting at the picnic table well his brother and father were sparing agents each other.

"Hey Goten, where's Trunks?' Bulma asked.

"You need to come quick, he's with an injured lady we found." he said as he landed. All of them stopped what they were doing and quickly got into motion.

"Gohan get the first aid kit, Goku a blanket." Chi Chi told them well Bulma turned to Goten. "Can you lead us to them?" She asked well pulled out her capsules and got out a plane.

"Yep." Goten said as he toke to the air well his father and brother came out of the house at a run caring the requested items.

Trunks was just getting a bear to move along and find dinner some were else when they reached them and landed. Soon Bulma was checking her over well Chi Chi helped.

"She has a fever, dehydrated, and she's injured." Bulma said after a few minutes. "Other than that I don't know. We better patch her up as best as we can then go to a hospital." Bulma said taking bandages out of the kit and started to bandage her up.

In 5 minutes they had her raped up in the blanket and Goku carried her into the plane. Well they took off and Goku held on to her, both he, Gohan heard her muttering. Leaning in close Gohan heard a bit of what she was saying.

"Have to- save the others, before- to late." Both father and sun exchanged confused looks.

….

The moment they arrived at the hospital they got her taken care of quickly by a doctor who after an hour came back to all of them with some disturbing news.

"She has recently and over a long peered of time been beaten but I don't think that it's domestic violence." he told them.

"Then what?" Bulma asked.

"Most likely tournament fights of some sorts. There are illegal under ground fights in pockets around the world that have unregistered fights, willing or not. For the moment she's resting comfortably and we're trying to bring down her fever but other than that there's not much we can do but wait. I have to ask do you know who she is?" the doctor asked.

"No we don't, our sons found her well they were out playing." Chi Chi said.

"Alright, I'll call you all if there is any change in-" he was saying when all the sudden Goku, Gohan, and the two young boys all séances a spike of an unknown power level right before a loud boom. The building shock with the sound.

"It came for the direction of her room. Come on." Gohan said as they took off running. They soon reached her room and stopped dead in their track when they saw the sight in front of them.

She was standing in the mild of what once had been her room, was now a ruined hole in the side of the building, as her power seamed to flow around her as she held a nurse on the ground under her feet. There was an energy ball ready in her hand and she looked ready to use it.

"Hey hold, on you don't won't to do that. "Goku said as got her attention, and slowly approached her. She looked at him with eyes that were blood shot, but there also was fear.

"No one here wants to hurt you, we all want to help. That lady there was only looking after you and it was one of my sons that got us so we could bring you here." he said calmly. She looked at the door, spotted Goten and Trunks, who both waved at her.

"Please lower your Ki dissolve the attack and let us help you. What do you say?" he asked as he stood a foot from her and could hear her heavy breathing. She looked around the room confused as tears started to run down her face. She then let the energy ball fade and the power stopped. She swayed a little as she grabbed the bed for support.

"What's your name?" Goku asked her well the other joined them. She looked at each of their faces before looking back at him.

"Sapphire." was all she said before her eyes rolled up in her head and she passed out causing Goku to catch her.

….
