A/N: Hello everyone! So this is my first post. It's a multi-chapter story and I already have quite a bit written, so updates should happen every few days. I am a college student, so sometimes I might become a little inconsistent with my postings, but trust me I will not leave this story hanging. I have it planned out until the end. Keep in mind, the characters may become a little out of character or do something that they clearly shouldn't be able to, but that's by design. I hope you enjoy my story. If you have questions or concerns please PM me! I like constructive criticize, but please don't PM or comment if your intentions are purely to be rude. Let me know if you enjoy my story! I would really love to hear your thoughts!

Chapter one: Adventure

She was running through the forest, noticing nothing but blurs of green, pink, and orange. She focused on the pounding of her heart along with her fast and uneven breathing. Bulma was positive that the gravity here was stronger, but wasn't sure how much stronger. Sweat was dripping down her back, but she couldn't force herself to stop running quite yet. She wasn't even sure what she was running from, but hearing that loud growl had been enough to scare her. Bulma glanced behind herself to see if anything was following her. She was debating whether or not to stop running, until she somehow flipped and thumped down into the dirt and grass. Looking up, she noticed the cause of her wipe out; a vine swinging violently back and forth. Catching her breath, she looked around to see only the sun nearing the horizon. "The colors here are weird!" She thought out loud. Although she didn't want to believe it, she had to accept that she was stuck here for the night. "Thank kami for my capsules!" Bulma eagerly opened her capsule container and looked for the appropriate item. After only moments of searching she found her house capsule and threw it to the ground where a small house appeared. She took a deep breath "I am Bulma Briefs, and I will be perfectly fine!" She repeated this mantra over and over while dusting off her knees. She surveyed the area, looking for a threat, but saw nothing but trees and other plants that she couldn't remember ever seeing before. Finally deciding there's not much else to do, she walked into her capsule house to settle in for the night. The first thing she did was walk into the bathroom to look in the mirror... She looked horrifying! Her long hair was knotted beyond a brushes ability, her face was covered in little scratches from running through the forest, her clothes were torn and ripped in various areas, and she was covered in a layer of sweat mixed with dirt. She quickly got into the shower and scrubbed until her skin felt raw. She was mentally making a list of things to do. Firstly, she needed to make contact with her father who would be extremely worried. Second, she needed to somehow get the navigator off of her space ship and see if it's working. Third, she needed to set up her laboratory table. She was not happy with the way things started out. Her father would flip if she didn't make contact soon! She wished her ship hadn't landed so roughly; she was scared that her transmitter was broken. She wouldn't know until tomorrow though, there's no way she's going back to her ship to make contact tonight! Looking back, she still couldn't figure out what made all of her ships gadgets go hay wire... Was it this planet? Was she even on the right planet? Ugh! "Why do I always get into these situations?!" She shouted, stomping her wet foot, while turning off the shower. She dried off, got dressed, and reached for her hair brush. After brushing out her blue locks she glanced out the window, "huh, weird it looks like there's two moons…" She knew this planet was said to be weird and unpredictable, but two moons hardly seemed like a reason to be scared of it. She remembered when her and her father first decided to come.

*flash back*

"Dad we've researched it for months! And where's your sense of adventure? Who knows what we could find! Think of the resources and beings that could be there!"

Her father looked apprehensive and thoughtful. He wasn't sure what drew his daughter to that planet, but usually her instincts were correct. He couldn't shake what he had heard about the planet though. "Bulma dear, I know it sounds very intriguing, but I've heard it could be dangerous! Many people don't return from their missions and lose radio connection once on the planet!"

She thought long and hard about how to take precautions. I suppose we could take a crew and maybe even have a full sized ship waiting near the planet while a smaller ship goes to scope out the planet first. That could work!

"What if we took a crew and took a full ship and kept it right outside the gravitational pull of the planet and then one person can take a single seated ship from the docking area and go in first!" She knew that her father wanted to go and that more than likely he would take the bait, which he did after adding a few more safety gadgets and plans. Within the month they were ready for take-off on another father, daughter adventure. Although her father didn't like it, Bulma had insisted on being the one to take the leap and land on the planet first. She was so excited for some reason.

*end flash back*

Well, with no way back to the ship tonight she couldn't contact her father. She hoped he would stick to their agreement. She told him not to come looking for her before the first day! Bulma wanted to have time to set up and figure things out before her father rushed in. Besides, she had her capsules that had enough resources to last her for a few months. She went to bedroom and laid down, thinking of all the possibilities this planet held for her.
