This is my first submission and I don't think this is one of my best works, but I thought this would be a nice one to start with. Ami is about to be thrown into her favorite anime, but events don't turn out quite right. Please read and enjoy.
The Summer Vacation
Prologue
"No No No!!' screamed Goku as he pounded his fists into the and the salty waves washed up around his knees. Raditz had just beaten him soundly and taken his only son hostage.
Ami sat watching the first episode of Dragonball Z for the umpteenth time.
She was 22 years old and a card carrying Otaku. Her room at home and at school was crammed with anime posters, manga, toys and plushies of her favorite characters.
Home from college for the summer, she was taking full advantage of her last real vacation before the start of her senior year. After that, she would find no time for goofing off for quite a while. Right now she was sitting curled up in her favorite chair, dressed in an Inuyasha tee shirt and jeans. She was snuggled up under a DBZ blanket, the one with Vegeta on it. He was her favorite and right now he was keeping her toes nice and warm. 'It can't get any better than this!' she thought as she watched Goku and Raditz wrestling on the screen.
Right then, her little brother Bobby came charging into the room. He was 13 and was as obnoxious as they come at that age. He snatched the remote form Ami's hand and started punching buttons, channel surfing as fast as he could. The DVD drawer popped open and spit out its contents, stopping the episode she was watching right in the middle.
"Bobby! Stop it!!", Ami yelled and grabbed for the remote, but he only waved it away from her, keeping it just beyond her reach. He was laughing uncontrollably, loving every minute of it.
"That's it! If you don't give it back now, I'm going to hurt you!", she said. Bobby ignored her threat and plopped onto the couch and put his feet up on the coffee table. As he pushed more buttons, the DVD slid back in and began to load and play where it had left off.
"You little…" she began and ran around the table to grab the remote and punch her brother a good one in the leg or arm, what ever she could reach first. He hopped over the back of the couch just in time and jumped down in front of the chair she had been sitting in. Bobby spied the blanket on the floor and said, "I guess you won't be needing this now!" and bent over to snatch it off the floor. Ami saw her chance to get the remote and took two steps forward and lunged for it. Unfortunately, she was standing on the end of the blanket with both feet as Bobby pulled up on his end of the blanket. Her feet went out from under her quickly and she tumbled backwards. Her head made contact smartly with the edge of the square oak coffee table with a horrible thump. The last thing she saw was Raditz knocking the wind out of Goku with a solid punch to the midsection. Then her world went dark.
