Meeting

Gohan was walking through the forest, looking for Icarus, his mum had said he could take the day off from studying, though Gohan suspected that she was just tired of all of Gohan's moping. She had hoped that this time to play would help lift his spirits and take his mind off of when his father would be getting home from Namek.

"Dad, don't you care?" he whispered to himself. Looking to the ground, he thought about his life, his father had never really been there, oh sure he was there when he was about to die, there to save him.....Sometimes, but did he really care? If he had the choice, would he spend time with Gohan or go out training? Gohan sighed sadly, he knew the answer. Training. He sighed again as he realized his dad only ever spent time with him if it involved training or food.......or his friends.

Gohan sighed again, his friends were his dad's friends and Gohan had a sinking feeling that he knew his dad would rather spend the day with them then with him. He sighed again not looking where he was walking he bumped into something that felt like a brick wall.

"Ow, watch where you going," said a voice from underneath him, opening his eyes Gohan blushed as he realized he had bumped into someone and fallen on top of them. Quickly he jumped off and realized he had fallen onto a female, his blush deepening.

Gohan offered her his hand; she took it, smiling as he helped her up. Once she was fully up right, Gohan took the chance to take in her appearance, short black hair and sparkling green eyes, she was wearing a black jacket along with black jeans, and a brown belt tied round her waste, not an inch of skin was see able on her, she even had on black gloves.

From where she stood Gohan could tell that he was taller than her but not by much, he judged her to be maybe a year or less younger then himself.

"What? You never saw a girl before?" she asked raising an eyebrow as she noticed him staring at her.

"Er s-sorry," said Gohan smiling as he rubbed the back of his head.

"Er no problem... m.. my name's Mia," replied the girl with a slight blush, though Gohan could tell that she was trying hard to fight it. Gohan blinked, his manners suddenly kicking in, he bowed.

"Nice to meet you Mia, my name is Son Gohan," Mia blinked at his politeness and bowed back.

"Son Gohan?" she repeated, as if she was testing out his name. "That name...why do I know that name?" Mia whispered to herself, though thanks to Gohan's Saiyan hearing he managed to catch her whispered question. He opened his mouth to reply before movement to their left caught Mia's eye.

"Ah run!" she cried grabbing Gohan's arm as she took off further into the woods.

"Wha.......What are we running from?" asked Gohan as he was pulled along by Mia. When she didn't answer he frowned and closed his eyes trying to sense whoever's life force they were running from. He found it. They were pretty weak, well actually very weak compared to him. Pulling on his arm, Gohan brought Mia to a stop.

"What are you doing, we need to get out of here," whispered Mia hoping not to draw anyone's attention.

"I can help you," said Gohan in reply.

"Stop fooling around Gohan we have to go," said Mia looking around for their mysterious follower.

"No really Mia, I can help, I was trained to fight," said Gohan in confidence.

"Fight? No we can't this isn't that kind of fight," replied Mia in a hurry, Gohan frowned we? Since when did he say we can fight, he concentrated on the girl in front of him, his eyes widened as he sensed her power level, it was higher than that of a normal human.

"Come on we have to go!" said Mia before she started dragging him after her again, adjusting her grip so that he couldn't stop her like he did the first time. The sound of a twig breaking caught her attention, she looked over Gohan she cursed. Grabbing the half-saiyan she leapt into the closest tree, holding her hand over Gohan's mouth to stop him from yelping in surprise.

Once she was sure that the danger was gone, the two jumped out of the tree, landing with practised ease.

"You're a fighter?" asked Gohan curiously. Mia looked at Gohan as if she was looking at him for the first time. A look of recognition came over her face.

"Ah I know you! You're Gohan! Son of Goku and Chichi, a half-saiyan!" she cried before covering her mouth and looking around the woods to make sure no one had caught them. Gohan's eyes narrowed at her.

"Who are you? How do you know about that?!" He questioned threateningly.

"I'm a Saiyan too," replied Mia unwinding her tail to back up her statement.

"WHAT?!" yelled Gohan, Mia covered her ears at his yell. "How are you a Saiyan?" he asked. Mia sighed in mild annoyance.

"It's not what you think, so don't start threatening me ok? I come from a different dimension," she stated with such a note of seriousness that Gohan didn't once think she was lying. "In my world, my family were rulers of the planet Vegeta, and...... Well they were space pirates, they killed and destroyed many lives for profit," she said with a sad look in her eyes.

"I was just different, I refused to hurt innocents because...well I'm not sure, I just didn't think it was right, and the people sentenced me to death because they didn't want their princess to seem weak. But I guess I got the last laugh when I survived, ironically by the technology that was used to put people into submission." she said as her eyes held a faraway look as if she was remembering something.

"I was barely alive when the Nameks found me," she let out a small smile at this before it quickly turned into a frown as she continued. "But life likes to turn into a bitch when something good happens, and took out the whole Namekian race, and now I travel through universes to look after them so they don't just up and disappear," she said keeping her eyes peeled. Now and then she would look around her surroundings as she summand up her life story to a couple of lines.

"Disappear?" asked Gohan as if she was mental.

"Yeah, each world has a heart, I try to find it and.....prepare it," she replied trying to give little information on the subject.

"Right," said Gohan. He trusted her so far but he was starting to get a bit worried for his on world.

"I'm here because something in the future is going to put this world at risk. The heart needs to be prepared," she said looking to Gohan. Gohan felt that she was hiding something big.

"Then who was that guy chasing you?" asked Gohan.

"Oh, erm that was demon," she replied not sure if he believed in these kind of things, earning a raised eyebrow from Gohan.

"A demon?" he asked a bit sceptical.

"Yea, straight from hell and everything," she said, "I need to send him back, that guy was being possessed, and I know I'm not supposed to interfere with the going ons in each world but, I just can't stand by and let this happen, besides no one was destined to beat him anyway or else I would have been sucked back into the void."

"The void?" asked Gohan raising an eyebrow, though something in his gut clenched at the name.

"Yes it's a place for those who belong nowhere but are needed, a place for outcasts," she replied a little sadly.

"Erm I'm sorry," Gohan replied, feeling a bit guilty that he had somehow upset her. He gave her a look of sympathy before smiling.

"Hey since you're a saiyan, maybe you'd like a quick spar" he said trying to cheer her up.

"You're on," challenged Mia smiling back.

Before Gohan could reply Mia lunged at him, punching to his left. She smiled as he deflected it, and laughed as he went to hit her only for her to block it. The two spent the next two hours sparing, each forgetting about their burdens and angst as they playfully fought to prove who was stronger.
