"Come on," said Trunks as he blasted the dummy with everything he had. The dummy exploded and he smiled in agreement. "Couldn't have done it better than that" he said as he went over to survey the damage. A large explosion caught his eye before he could reach the dummy. He saw the flashes coming from behind a nearby hill. "Not again" he moaned but he got up and flew over just in case. He saw a portal opening in the field behind the hill and someone came flying out. The person hit the ground and didn't move. Trunks flew over and landed a few feet from the person. He walked over and turned the body over. To his surprise it was a young girl of about his age. She had long jet-black hair, was wearing a black jacket, top, jean, and had Saiyan boots on. "Hey" he said as he gently tapped her on her cheeks. Then he heard another noise and quickly ducked under the bushes with her. Three men came out of the portal. "She must be here" one said "She was wounded and couldn't have gone far. We need to find her and finish the job." Trunks got angry when he heard this and jumped from the bushes. "You know" he said, "It isn't nice to chase young ladies around." "And what are you going to do about it?" one snarled. "Teach you some manners of course," said Trunks as he powered up. "He's a Saiyan" one said and looked at the others. "That doesn't matter" he said, "We need to get Kakarot's daughter. She's the only one who knows where the others are!" "Not if I can help it," said Trunks as he attacked them with all he had. It didn't take long for him to destroy all three of them. Then he went to get the girl from the bushes. She was badly hurt and needed help. He gently picked her up. She seemed to be delirious because she started calling for help. "Gohan. Gohan don't fight. Stay back" she said as she tried to fight. Her eyes suddenly flew open as she started at him. "Vegeta" she whispered as she looked at him. "Easy" said Trunks as he held her. It didn't take long for him to calm her down but then she fainted again. Trunks looked around for any danger and then took off to Goku where he knew he would find the answers and help for the girl.
"That's it Goten" said Goku as he smiled at his youngest. They were busy practicing in the garden. Gohan was studying and ChiChi was fixing dinner. Goku looked up when he saw Trunks. "Hey Trunks" he said as the Saiyan from the future landed. "Hey Goku" said Trunks "Look what I found out while I was training. Some weirdoes were after her. She's hurt pretty bad." "She sure is. What happened?" Goku walked closer and looked at the girl. "O yes" said Trunks "Who is Kakarot? They kept saying they need to find his daughter. My guess is that this is her." He looked at Goku who had turned very pale when he saw the young girl and heard what he said. "It can't be" he whispered. "What's going on dad?" said Gohan as he came out to see what was going on. He too froze when he saw the girl. "What's going on you guys?" asked Trunks as he looked at them. Goku looked up. "I'm Kakarot Trunks," he said. "So you mean?" "Yes" said Goku "This is Melody. She's my daughter. She was taken from us when she was very young. We thought we would never see her again." "ChiChi" Goku called as he looked at Gohan. The boy had tears in his eyes and looked at his father. "What is it Goku? It better not be something that you're wasting my time with," said ChiChi as she came walking out of the kitchen. Goku took the girl from Trunks' and turned to ChiChi. "Look ChiChi" he said, "Our little princess is back." ChiChi looked at Melody and started crying. "Let's get her inside," said Goku as he walked into the house. The others followed him. ChiChi made him take her to Gohan's room and then went inside closing the door behind her. Goku, Trunks, Gohan and Goten went downstairs to wait.
"So that's the story" Goku said as he looked at Trunks "She got kidnapped and taken away right after we killed Raditz. We looked everywhere until we realized that she was gone so we gave up hope. Gohan was old enough to understand and we didn't want to upset him any further. Now here she shows up and we don't have an idea as to why or where she came from." "She was dressed in Saiyan armor so she must have been fighting those creeps I took care of." "Didn't they say anything else?" asked Goku. Trunks shook his head. "They only said they wanted Kakarot's daughter and from the looks of it they were either going to capture or kill her." "We'll find out when she wakes up. But why did you bring her here?" Trunks looked at Gohan. "She kept calling his name and telling him to run." "The incident" Gohan said and looked at Goku "She protected me from some ninjas by telling me to run. I heard her scream and then she was gone." "Which may show that she still remembers us" said Goku as he got up.
Melody struggled as ChiChi treated her wounds and wrapped them. Then her eyes flew open and she tried to get up. "Stay down. You're only going to hurt yourself further." Melody turned her head and looked into the eyes that she missed the most these past twelve years. "Mom" she said as her eyes shot full of tears. "My baby" said ChiChi as she hugged the girl "I have missed you so much. Where have you been?" Melody looked at her and just cried again. "Where am I?" she asked "And how did I get here?" "Trunks saved you and brought you here for help." "Trunks?" asked Melody as she looked at her mother "Who's he?" "Trunks is Vegeta and Bulma's son. He came from the future to help us and stayed. What happened to you?" "I was fleeing from Frieza's Saiyan Hunting Squads. They found our hiding and I was one of the lucky ones to escape. Where is Prince Vegeta? I need to speak to him right away." "Hang on," said ChiChi as she pushed her back down "You need to rest and them we'll talk." Melody nodded and closed her eyes. "Hey mom" she murmured "It's nice to finally be home. I missed all of you." "We missed you too honey" smiled ChiChi as she walked out. She found the guys downstairs. "She's asleep and seems to be fine but she needs to speak to Vegeta and it sounds urgent. Where is he now Trunks?" "He's training in the desert. I'll go and get him." With this Trunks said goodbye and left to go and get his father. ChiChi then repeated everything Melody told her to Goku and the decided to let her rest before they asked her about her disappearance.
