A/N: Thanks again for the feedback. I'll try to be nicer to ChiChi, I
wasn't being purposely cruel. And Starkiller, I'll try for some romance
soon. In the next few chapters, definitely.
Disclaimer: Today, it's Fasia's turn. FASIA!
Fasia: What? Is this about "The People Who Constantly Cheat on Their Lovers", because I swear it wasn't me who blew up the studio...
Zarbon: I kinda liked that show!
Fasia: You would.
Zarbon: *Narrows eyes* What are you implying?
Fasia: *Sweatdrops* Uh... that you like bad soap operas?
CZO: *Game show voice.* Well congratulations, you've just stated the obvious! Would you like the prize of an old piece of ABC gum from underneath the desks in the science lab or an ancient five cent piece with added green stuff?
Fasia: Is ABC gum good?
Zarbon: I can safely say that if she's trying to give it to you, no.
Fasia: What about the five cents then?
CZO: Well, it's money, and you can't buy anything worthwhile with it unless you have two, then you can glue them together and drink machines think you are giving them two dollars. Then...
Fasia: @_@;... What is she going on about this time?
Zarbon: Don't ask me. She just escaped from the "men in white coats", or that's what I heard from her sister anyway. Before the stupid brat called me a "a DBZ loser". She seemed to think I was going to some sort of convention... Anyway, take my advice and try to ignore CZO. Your sanity is safer that way.
Fasia: I think I will. {And I might plan on killing her sister...}
A/N: Sorry, no rant or useless fact today. I'm lazy. I would like to recommend you read Time Soldier's poems though. She's a great author and deserves more reviews. She's also a good friend of mine. She's a really cool person, and, although she refuses to admit it, a wonderful poet. So get out and read her stuff! Oh, and Zarbie (don't ask), if you're reading this, well :-p. You know it's all true.
Zarbon Transformed: A Narcissian Warrior Returns
Chapter 6.
Suddenly, Vegeta felt a small rise in a ki. He expanded his awareness as much as he could, like someone listening for a very quiet sound. He didn't recognise the ki, but it was coming from Goku's house... The girl, Fasia, he realised. Then he felt Zarbon's power raise. He pulled on his spandex bodysuit right over his training shorts and blasted out the window waking Bulma in the process.
"Vegeta!" she yelled at him. "I'm coming with you." She ran outside, decapsulated an aircar, and drove off after Vegeta, nearly turning over in midair.
At the empty wasteland outside of the Son residence, Goku was sparring with Zarbon and Fasia. They made a good team, but even together they were no match for Goku. He blocked their blows and blasts easily, without even transforming. He didn't even try to hit back. Suddenly, he stopped, signalling Zarbon and Fasia to stop as well.
"Hey, what's going on? I can feel all my friends' kis, they're coming this way... Can you feel it?" he asked. Zarbon and Fasia looked at him in confusion.
"What? You can sense ki without a scouter?" Fasia asked.
"You can't either?" asked Goku in surprise. Fasia and Zarbon gave him another confused look.
"Well... try and think about everything around you," he said. "I'm not good at explaining things, but if you sort of think about everything..."
"Yes?" Fasia said.
"Well, it's pretty hard to describe... but you can sort of hear everything's spirit... you can feel a bit of them, some of their personality, their power level, and even sometimes basic emotions... I have a friend who can read some strong thoughts."* Zarbon shivered. He didn't want to meet Goku's friend. His thoughts were his own, and no-one else deserved to know them. No-one.
"So... you sort of focus... on everything around you?" the Narcissian asked.
"Yeah... I do it so much that it's almost natural... But you should try and listen and look and feel all at once. I guess feel is the best way to describe it. Try to touch everything without actually moving," explained the Saiyan.
"I'll try," Fasia said. She stood, and seemed to be absorbed into herself for a little. She seemed to be gaining power.
"No," Goku said simply. "You're powering up, not sensing ki. It's different. Don't try to push yourself, try to feel."
"OK," said Fasia. This time she concentrated for a little while, and then a smile broke out onto her face. "I did it!" she said, happily. "I can sort of sense people... there's a woman, she's very weak but she has a strong will, and a man, he's... very strong, and arrogant... there's another man, he's... I can feel a lot of loyalty, and he seems to be a little strong, but not serious, and then there's someone else, another man... Wow, this is incredible... Zarbon, try!" Zarbon, who was used to being ordered around, obeyed without question. He was quicker to master the technique than Fasia, but found it less intriguing.
"Well, I can feel a few power levels... but they're all much weaker than you. Most are weaker than me," the Narcissian said, disinterest evident in his voice. He wasn't in a very good temper, one of the powers had a familiar self-assurance that he didn't like.
"Good job!" congratulated Goku, like he was praising a bunch of five year olds for a finger painting class. Zarbon didn't answer, he realised Goku didn't mean to be condescending at all, but that was the way it came across.
The silence was broken by a loud voice yelling at Goku, the speaker unable to be seen.
"Goku, food!" was all ChiChi needed to say. Before Zarbon and Fasia could blink, he had raised two fingers to his forehead and was gone. Fasia looked around for him, wondering how anyone could be so fast.
"I'd like to race him someday," she muttered, obviously believing he had actually flown. Zarbon frowned, he didn't think it was at all possible to be that fast. He took off towards Goku's house, he was hungry and he was curious about the technique the man had used. Fasia grinned, gave him a head start and managed to still beat him to the door.
At that moment, the Z fighters, led by Krillin, landed right behind them. Goku walked out the door, an empty bowl that looked like it had once contained rice (although it was hard to tell, as Goku tended to clean up food fairly thoroughly).
"Hey!" he said to his friends, waving. They looked at him completely speechless, then looked at the Narcissian and Rapidian. Then they all looked back at Goku.
"Oh!" he said. "These are my new friends. Meet Fasia and Zarbon."**
*I have no idea how the ki thing works. I just made this up, because I've never heard it said this doesn't happen.
**Yeah, I guess that could be called a cliffhanger. But I haven't posted a chapter in ages, and I needed to post sooner or later otherwise everyone would give up on me.
Zarbie: I'm still working on the HTML. I might be able to do the next chapter using it. Sorry, but you know the piece of junk that tries to call itself a computer I have. I don't think it likes me. ;_;
