Introduction
My mind whirls as I sit myself up. "Ugh... What hit me?" I ask no one.
I glance around the savanna that I'm in. I notice that I'm alone. I sigh as a small lizard runs in front of me.
*THUD* I glance about as the ground shakes. *THUD* I notice a Dinosaur, more importantly a T-Rex, coming towards me. *THUD*
"Great..." *THUD* "Past relatives..." I mutter as it stops beside me, blocking the sun.
It looks down at me and growls. I raise an eyebrow.
"Don't even." I state, calmly.
It grumbles and lies down next to me.
"Ok, that works." I say, slightly shocked.
I reach out and pet its snout. It closes its eyes and groans. I smirk and climb onto its back.
"Ok, bud. Let's find some food!" I say, my stomach growling.
The T-rex stands up and heads back the way it came. It stops near a tree that is hanging into the canyon. I grab a piece of fruit off of the branch and eat it in a few bites.
"Thanks Rex." I say as he continues down the canyon.
I notice a waterfall in the distance as trees start to surround us. Rex stops at a stream. I hop down and land lightly.
"Thanks Rex!" I say, smiling.
He leaves back towards the savanna. I cup my hands in the stream and drink my fill. I walk, somewhat, close to the bank of the stream. I notice a man in a clearing near a cave. He has green skin, and pointed ears. He wears purple Gi's with a red sash around his waist. A white turban and cloak lie forgotten in the cave. The man is training. I continue to watch him, intrigued by his skin color and ears. He finally stops and looks at me.
"Why are you here and what do you want?" He asks, slightly unnerved that I didn't move.
I look at him and shrug.
"Don't know... Rex dropped me off at a nearby stream." I say, looking around.
"Tsk, Humans." He mutters. My eyes focus on him.
"What did you call me?" I ask, growling and clenching my fists.
"You heard me?" He questions. I nod, my hands changing into draconic claws.
"Yes. You said 'humans.' I'm not A HUMAN!" I roar, rushing at him, slashing with my claws.
He disappears. I stop all movement, even breathing. Hearing his breath behind me, I spin quickly and graze his forearm. He jumps back, shocked that I had cut him.
"You aren't human..." He mutters.
"Damn Straight! Kids need to learn to respect their elders!" I say.
"I'M NOT A KID!" The man yells.
"You are to me. Where is Kami? Where are the Dragon Balls?" I question.
"How do you know Kami, and about the Dragon Balls?" He asks, suspicious of me.
"Calm yourself. I merely wish to talk to my cousin." I say, my tail appearing and swishing back and forth.
He stares at my tail.
"What? It's not like I go nuts when I go to my true form..." I mutter, allowing myself to start flying off.
He appears in front of me, blocking my route.
"Wait. I have to talk to Kami anyways." He mutters.
I smile my hands back to looking human.
"Ok. Lead the way." I say.
He smirks and turns away from me. I grab his left arm and he looks at me.
"Ready!" I say, smiling.
He sighs and takes me to Kami. When we reach Mr. Popo, he comes rushing over to me.
"Malaya! It has been a while since I last saw you!" Mr. Popo says as I let go of the man next to me.
"Popo, Where is Kami?" I ask walking over to the genie.
"He is in the Library." Mr. Popo says.
I nod and go into the kitchen. Sure enough Taya was there.
"Hello, Taya. How is my twin?" I ask.
She looks up and squeals. Running to me she gives me a hug.
"Malaya! Holy Cow! I thought that you died!" She says, pulling away from the hug.
I smirk.
"You can't get rid of me that easily." I say, a laugh coming from us both.
Mr. Popo smiles as Taya and I calm down. Kami enters the kitchen with that man that brought me here.
"Not now, Piccolo." Kami says, stopping by me.
The other is fuming.
"Kami. If it is a bad time I can always come back later." I say, grabbing the cookie that Taya is passing me.
"Nonsense child." He says, causing my eye to twitch.
"Fine, you old bat." I mutter, very annoyed.
Kami sighs, then motions for me to follow him. He leads me outside of the buildings.
"What is it that you wished to talk to me about?" Kami asks.
"I wish to talk to my cousin. But if I use the Dragon Balls he won't hold a conversation." I say, looking over the edge of the lookout.
Kami nods and places a hand on my shoulder.
"When you are ready." Kami says. I nod.
'Shenron?' I think.
'Yes, Malaya?' He answers.
'How are you?' I ask.
'Good and you?' He questions with a chuckles.
'Good. It's been a while since I last saw you.' I say.
'Yes. But it has always been this way.' He replies.
'I know but it doesn't seem fair.' I say
'Yes but at least Kami is able to let us talk. So don't do anything stupid and we shall talk later.' He says.
The connection is severed and Kami removes his hand from my shoulder.
"Thank you, Kami. I really appreciate it." I mutter my eyes out of focus.
"Never a problem." Kami says, leaving me to my thoughts.
As I stand there, tears streaming down my cheeks, I feel Piccolo's energy level. I wipe my eyes as the energy level gets closer.
"What do you want?" I grumble.
He stops behind me.
"Nothing, I was just leaving." He says, turning away from me.
I sigh and sit on the edge of the lookout. Piccolo looks back at me.
"Why is your twin's hair a different color?" He asks. I look at him, shocked.
"Well, I'm not sure but when we go to our true forms, that is our scale color." I say.
He nods, slightly confused. I look away from his gaze, blushing slightly. Piccolo places a hand on my shoulder. I look back at him.
"Yes? Piccolo?" I ask.
He looks away as another energy level heads toward us. I slide off the edge of the lookout and fly off. I sigh as I head back to the waterfall. I sit in the cave and pull part of the cloak over me. I smile and begin to drift off to sleep.
~Darkness. Nothing surrounds me as I walk in the black void. Soon I spot my twin standing over a grave... My grave. As I get closer I notice that all that is on my grave is my name and some other thing. I squint and try to read it. Finally, having read the small words, my face falls.
"Revived once... then killed by Cell." I mutter.
I look to my twin and find that no one is around me. I lean back and land on my ass. Tears stream down my cheeks. I start to sob as my grave disappears from my blurred sight.~
A hand is on my shoulder, shaking me lightly. I open my eyes, slowly, to see Piccolo. He slowly removes his hand.
"What?" I ask, trying to stiffel a yawn.
He smirks at me.
"You were sobbing." He mutters, keeping his back to me.
I touch my face and feel the residue of my tears.
'It was horrible. I hope that it never happens.' I think to myself.
Piccolo notices my mood and turns back to me.
"Malaya, what is the matter?" He asks, coming over and sitting next to me.
"Nothing..." I say, hugging me knees to my chest and biting my bottom lip to the point that it bleeds.
"Malaya!" A hyper voice says, making both Piccolo and I cringe at the shrillness of her voice.
"Hey, sis..." I mutter as she kneels in front of me.
"Malaya... What is it? What did you dream?" Taya asks, becoming hysteric.
"It was nothing. I swear." I lie to her.
She nods solemnly. As she gets up she looks back at me, then to Piccolo.
"Can I talk to you for a second? Piccolo?" She asks.
He looks at her very confused but gets up and walks over to her. I stay where I am at and sigh.
"Please, just keep her safe." I hear Taya say, after putting my head on my knees.
Piccolo nods and comes back over to me and sits down.
"Do you remember anything from before you first saw me?" Piccolo asks.
I pick my head up and look at him.
"No... It was like I had been asleep for a while. Why?" I ask, very confused.
He looks at me and sigh.
"Piccolo, please tell me what you know!" I say, both of my hands on his shoulders.
I feel tears start to run down my cheeks again, but ignore it.
"Malaya... Your sister brought you back from death. She also had Shenron wipe your memories of your death and of the afterlife." Piccolo says.
My hands slide off of his shoulders.
"No... She made me think that I would be able to come back if I die. She... She knew I had died. That is why she acted so surprised when she saw me enter Kami's kitchen." I mutter, tears flowing freely down my cheeks.
Piccolo stares at me then hesitantly pulls me into an awkward hug. I clutch his shirt and sob into his shoulder. He lightly pats my back.
"Malaya..." Piccolo mutters.
My sobs turn into hiccups.
"Piccolo... d-do you k-know who C-Cell is?" I ask him.
He shakes his head no.
"Why do you ask?" He questions back.
I raise my head and look at him.
"It was in my dream." I mutter.
He stares at me.
"Then why did you tell your sister it was nothing?" He asks.
"She would have over reacted and made sure that I never fight again!" I yell, then blush looking down at his chest.
He lifts my chin.
"Why would she over react?" He asks.
I try to look away but he lightly squeezes my chin.
"Because I saw that name in my dream... On my grave stone..." I say, closing my eyes.
"Where on your grave stone? How was it written?" He asks, releasing my chin.
"It was a little fact about me... It said: Revived once, then killed by Cell." I say, my eyes still closed.
Piccolo stays silent, then lightly brushes his lips against mine. My breath hitches as a spark of electricity runs down my spine. I slowly open my eyes and look at Piccolo who has his eyes closed. I lay my head on his shoulder. His arms wrap around me, pulling me closer to him.
"Don't worry. I won't let this Cell person harm or kill you." Piccolo says.
I smile and snuggle into him. He tightens his grip a bit then smirks as I drift off to sleep, again. As I wake up I notice that Piccolo is still holding me. I blush and smile. I slowly leave his arms, trying not to wake him. As I go over to the stream I cup my hands under the water and take a drink. A high energy level causes me to look in that direction, releasing any water left in my hands back into the stream.
'It is the same energy level as last time.' I think, not noticing that Piccolo was staring at me.
I narrow my eyes and look at the spot that the thing was coming from. The person lands and stares at me.
"Who the hell are you? And where is Piccolo?" The man asks.
He is short and has a bald head. I glare at him, very un-happy.
"I am right here, Krillin." Piccolo says, standing next to me.
The bald one relaxes a bit.
"So who is she, Piccolo?" Krillin asks.
I look between Piccolo and Krillin.
'So, Piccolo knows this guy... Maybe he is ok?' I think to myself.
"Her name is Malaya." Piccolo says.
Krillin nods. He looks me up and down, a smile spreading on his face.
"Don't even. You try it and you will lose them." I say.
Krillin frowns but nods.
"Ok, I won't. Yamcha is the one that I would be worried about." Krillin says.
I look at him and tilt my head to one side.
"Who is Yamcha?" I ask confused and slightly annoyed.
Piccolo chuckles.
"Yamcha is a bit of a man whore. He goes after anything with legs and a great body." Krillin says.
I nod, looking to Piccolo as if to say that Yamcha should stay away or else. He just smirks back at me.
"So why are you here, Krillin?" Piccolo asks, his normal demeanor back.
Krillin grows serious.
"Well there seems to be a strange thing occurring all over the place." Krillin says.
"What kind of strange?" I ask.
"Well, this might sound weird but Goku met with a guy with purple-ish hair." Krillin says.
"And this affects me how?" I ask, causing Piccolo to chuckle.
"Well, the guy said that two androids will come to destroy the world." Krillin says.
I look at Piccolo, worry written on my face.
"Did the guy give any names?" I ask, hiding my emotions from Krillin.
He shakes his head no. I sigh and sit on a nearby rock. Piccolo puts a hand on my shoulder. Krillin looks between Piccolo and I, but shrugs it off.
"Well? Is there anything else that you would like to add?" Piccolo asks Krillin.
The bald one shakes his head and leaves. I glance at Piccolo and smile slightly.
"So... What are we gonna do?" I ask.
He looks at me and smirks.
"Well, we could train." He says.
I smile and nod my head.
"Yeah, training might help me to calm down from that damned dream." I say, standing up and facing him.
"Don't expect me to go easy on you." He says with a smile.
"Wouldn't dream of it. Besides why would I want you to go easy on me if I am going to give all I got?" I ask, a smile on my lips.
He grins and gets into his fighting stance.
