Chapter 8

Summary: this whole chapter will be a flashback of Selima's past. It will be in italics & the thoughts will be in bold italics. let's see what happens now! ^^

It had been a year since Frieza destroyed the saiyan homeworld & a little girl was born on a desolate planet. Her name was Selima meaning "peace". Peace. That was what her parents hoped for more than anything. That they could live in peace with their daughter.

Selima had a fire in her eye that would never go out her parents saw that in her. So they gave her the nickname Kaida "little dragon". As Selima grew up her parents taught her everything they knew. Her mother taught her education & Selima's father taught her how to survive on her wits if ever needed to do so & how to fight. Selima got her looks & her shyness around other people from her mother & she got her toughness & overall personality from her father.

And as Selima grew her parents fear of being found & killed faded away. They stopped living in fear & were happy with their daughter. Selima was a sweet gentle carefree girl. She would always light up the room with her spirit. The little family lived in peace on the desolate planet for years to come.

But this moment of peace was not to be forever it seemed. When Selima just recently turned 13 years old the moment of peace ended. Her parents nightmare the one they thought was behind them forever finally had become a reality. Frezia's men found them. They stood there in horror as Freiza's men laughed evilly.

"We finally found you monkeys. Now it is time for you all to die!" They cackled as they started to kill Selima's parents right before her very eyes. She yelled & screamed for them to stop but the sounds her parents made as they slowly killed them was music to their ears. Her rage rose as she saw the monsters slowly kill her mother. Her father already cold & dead on the floor his blood running from the wounds. Then she hit her breaking point when her mother like her father fell to the floor cold & dead.

Selima in disbelief ran to her mother & sobbed. "No..no.." She shook her head as she cried in grief & terror because now the monsters will come after her. "Don't worry little girl you'll join them soon enough." They maniacally laughed as they advanced towards the teenage Selima who was trembling with rage. Selima stood up & looked up at the sky. "Mother!" she screamed into the sky as her hair turned gold & her eyes electric blue.

Selima then looked to the monsters with a cold lifeless look & killed every last one of them just like they did her parents. Afterwards she dug graves for her parents then buried them & gave her final respects. She could see she could no longer stay her on this planet & that it was time for her to leave but before she left she made a final promise to them. "I promise to stay alive for you guys & live the life you 2 couldn't. & I will make Freiza pay for what he did!" She exclaimed. And with that promise made Selima found a space pod & left her home.

How long she was in space she couldn't tell. But the space pod landed on the planet yardrat. Selima looked at the people there & they were kind to her. They gave her new clothes & food & as long as she didn't bother them they had no problem with her training. Selima trained night & day & stayed on planet yardrat where she learned instant transmission ( IT for short ). She stayed on yardrat throughout the rest of her teenage years until she turned 20 years old.

When Selima turned 20 she packed up what little possessions she had & thanked the people of yardrat for their hospitality to her. After that she set off once again in hopes of finding a planet she could call home. As she was in space thinking of where to go next her space pod crashed on the planet namek. Selima was saved by the namekians there & she was grateful for their help. Selima learned about how Freiza was defeated by Goku & she was ecstatic.

She was happy to know she wasn't the last of her kind & there were more like her. So after that she decided to train & hone her skills & then head to earth to meet the person that avenged the saiyans. That's when her dreams started. Selima would have dreams about her past & she would wake up cold, covered in sweat & terrified. At first they didn't happen often only on rare occasion then did they occur.

Although she tried to put the past behind her & move on the nightmares continued. They grew more frequent & in intensity as the years went by. During the years she was on Namek Selima trained & honed her skills while she repaired her space pod since it was damaged in the landing. 7 years later when Selima was 27 years old she was finally ready to make a trip to earth. She said her farewells to the namekians & gathered her things & set out for earth.

As she was making her way to earth she wondered what it would be like there. Selima wondered if she could finally have a home there on earth & live in peace. She wondered if the man she heard of Son Goku would accept her. The same would be said if his family & friends would accept her. She was afraid that they wouldn't want her around & would either attack her or ask her to leave the planet.

Selima had been floating through space in her space pod for a couple of months now & was about to land on earth. She was excited to see what the planet looked like & also anxious at the same time. Her nightmares were getting more & more intense & she was wondering what they meant. But she put those thoughts aside as she started to land on earth. She descended from space & through the skies but her space pod couldn't handle the pressure & force of the descent.

Selima's space pod was searing through the skies & was going to land on mount Paouz. The space pod crashed & was commpletly destroyed then Selima's world went black.

Well that's the end of chp. 8! ^^ this was just a flashback of Selima's life before she came onto earth to give an overall idea on what she's been through & what she's like. Chp. 9 is in the making so we'll see how that goes! ^^ but honestly when I finish this story If I ever do another story that isn't a one-shot like this it will not be this long. At least I hope not. Well that's it & I'll talk when chp. 9 is out! ^^
