I apologize for the late update, life happened. Two jobs is taking a toll stress wise and I'm not able to do much about it. Well, here is the second chapter; enjoy my lovelies!

"Hide!" I whispered harshly as I darted behind the truck in hopes that I wasn't spotted; I was hoping that the farmer had listened since him dying wasn't exactly necessary, but either he didn't hear me, or he didn't care to run because he still confronted the Saiyan. I didn't need to hear the two to know the conversation. I flinched when the farmer fired his gun, and I gasped out in shock when I felt the farmer collide with the truck; the truck pushed me back some. It wasn't fun. I quickly got over that, however, when I heard the Saiyan's scouter beep as he pushed the button. "Well, looks like we got a human who thought they could hide," I practically heard him grin.

'Shit!' I thought as fear froze me in place. I hadn't been expecting him to pay me any mind, but I guess I was quite wrong. It was quite for a moment, and I thought perhaps he left until he appeared right in front of me causing my heart to leap in my chest. "What the fuck?!" I shouted in shock.

I was expecting him to kill me on the spot, but his eyes went wide as if he recognized me..? What the hell? "Keiko? How the hell did you end up here? We thought you died on Planet Vegeta," he stated all the while a glare remained planted on his face.

My eyebrows scrunched up in confusion at his statement. I didn't know who this Keiko was, but apparently I resembled her. "Um, sorry? I don't really know who you're referring to," I answered being brave enough to stand up; if I had a chance to escape, I was going to do it.

"Don't play dumb! You served Prince Vegeta in the royal home!" he shouted which in turn caused me to flinch; I knew he would kill me if I gave him a reason to.

Well, until my mouth decided to ignore my brain. "Geez, you don't need to yell, I can hear you just fine and so can Nappa and Vegeta," I mumbled. "Damn Saiyan temper..." My eyes went wide in horror as a grin that promised no good intentions spread across his face. "And fuck me and my temper; why do I have to make a twat out of myself?!" I growled throwing my hands in the air in exasperation.

"So you do remember us," he stated, but before I could respond he wrapped an arm around my waist and took off to look for Kakarot no doubt.

"Put me down damn it! I do not need to be manhandled by a someone who is accusing me of being someone I'm not. Fuck you and your Sonic the Hedgehog hair!" I shrieked as he continued flying. I noticed he continued ignoring me and my protests.

I wasn't sure how long we were flying for, but I seriously was dying of boredom, and Mister Silent wasn't helping the situation. "So...can we at least play a game or something so I don't die of boredom?" I growled in irritation. I was answered with more silence. "Or you could continue to ignore me, it's fine. Twat."

We stopped abruptly and I gulped when I noticed his glare directed towards me; I guess he finally got tired of the insults. "I am very tempted to drop you to your death right now!" he snarled in fury.

"It isn't my fault that you don't respond to anything else!" I snapped back. I felt Raditz's arm slacken just for a moment before he growled out and took the scouter off of his face and handed it to me..? "Why are you handing me the scouter? Don't you need it to find Kakarot? Here you get on to me for insulting you and then you go be stupid," I scoffed. "I don't need it."

"I do need it, but Prince Vegeta wishes to speak to you," he shouted still holding the scouter out to me.

I scowled at the Saiyan then at the scouter, "Maybe I don't want to, did you ever think of that?"

"You will listen to what he has to say!" Raditz ordered.

I rolled my eyes and after a while of trying to figure out how to put the damn thing on so it would stay put, I let out a sigh. "Okay, this is Ann-Marie; your pal here said you wanted a word, Vegeta, or was he bullshitting it?" I asked irritably.

I heard laughing on the other end of the scouter and a growl from Raditz; I guess I'm a comedian? "I did want a word with you, and I believe he called you Keiko," the prince of Saiyans stated. It was silent for a moment, and when Vegeta started talking again, he sounded angry with a hint of...pain..? "How did you manage to get off the planet?! We all thought you had died along with it!"

"Okay, rather than trying to ask me questions I don't know the answer to, why don't you tell me what you more than likely wanted to say before you have a coronary," I deadpanned.

"Don't tell me what to do, woman! And if I were you, I'd refrain from making Raditz angry; he's under strict orders not to harm you, but if you keep this up I highly doubt he'll listen," he stated.

"I can't promise anything considering I'm being taken against my will here," I muttered before handing the scouter back to Raditz. "Let's get back to your quest."

We continued flying for a while until we landed and I saw one of the future heroes of Earth. "Oh my God...Piccolo, do me a favor and don't attack!" I shouted knowing he'd kill me in the process of attacking Raditz.

"Feh, you aren't Kakarot," the Saiyan stated.

"I've got green skin, pointy ears, and a turban...Oh yeah, I must look like so many other people. And you, I've never seen you before, how do you know who I am?" the Namekian questioned.

I was about to answer when Raditz cut me off. "Oh, a smart ass, huh? I don't appreciate sarcasm. Get ready for some real power!" he shouted, but he paused when his scouter beeped and he took off in the air yet again. As he was flying he decided to shout out loud to nobody. "Have you lost your pride, the pride of the Saiyan warriors?!" he shouted.

I wasn't sure exactly how long we were flying, but eventually we arrived on the island that held Kame House. I was well aware of the defensive stances the others were taking as Goku and Raditz had a stare down. "So we meet again at last," the older brother stated. "You've grown up; I recognize you, though, Kakarot."

"Kakarot?" Goku questioned.

"Hey, before this conversation continues, would you mind putting me down? This isn't exactly comfortable," I grumbled with crossed arms.

I heard Raditz scoff before he dropped me; thankfully I caught myself before I hit the ground. "Geez, dick," I muttered dusting myself off.

I looked at the older brother out of the corner of my eye before I darted away from him; I think he allowed me to do so since he knew he would be able to catch up to me. As he and Raditz began talking I made my way to Bulma. I flinched when Krillin was forced through the house and Raditz's tail was revealed to the crowd. Bulma grabbed hold of Gohan and I sighed before talking low. "I know you don't know who I am, but you need to hide Gohan; Raditz will take him otherwise," I whispered as calmly as possible.

"How do you know his name and what will happen?" she whispered accusingly back.

"It doesn't matter right now, but I'm being serious. Just don't let him out of your hands," I muttered.

I ignored Master Roshi's history lesson with Goku and Raditz's explanation of Planet Vegeta. Unfortunately for me, Raditz still noticed Gohan and his tail; Raditz walked up to Goku and totally owned him with one kick. Gohan ran to his father and my instincts took over. I followed after the kid and after Raditz picked up Gohan by the back of his shirt, he picked me up under his arm yet again before I could flee. "Damn it!" I shouted.

"Like I said, I'm taking your son," the older brother started. I was too busy trying to drown out Gohan's crying to pay attention to the rest of the talk. I growled as he once again took off with both of us in his clutches.

I started playing the events in my head as to what had happened so far. So I knew that there was a major twist to the universe I was in since it seemed to be a combination of the anime, abridged series, and the manga. I would need to keep up on all of them in order to make sure I don't miss anything. That, and if things continue, I'd need to be careful with Doctor Gero in case he thinks I'm psychic or whatever. I hope to return home before that happens, however, just in case. When we landed, I headed right to the truck followed closely by Gohan. I got my backpack out of the passenger seat of the truck as Gohan hid. I sat down near the crater and pulled out my iPod while Raditz put his nephew in the space pod. I hit shuffle and laid down on the grass knowing exactly what was going on. I frowned when I felt a kick on my foot and I took an earphone out and raised an eyebrow at the Saiyan. "Can I help you?" I asked.

"I'm getting something to eat, don't run off or you'll regret it," he threatened.

"Whatever, not like I have anywhere to go right now," I muttered putting my earphone back in my ear as one of my favorite rock bands played.

I dozed off at some point and didn't wake up until I felt the Earth shake. I sighed in annoyance as I sat up; I recognized the fight that was taking place and knew it was only a matter of time before Goku would die along with Raditz. I didn't want to watch since I knew I would more than likely get sick to my stomach; I had a low tolerance of blood. I sighed as I looked at the space pod and decided I'd go over to comfort him. However, I was stopped by none other than the annoying big brother who shoved me away. "Okay, I get it; I'll stay put, prick," I growled. Oh how I hated him right now.

"Call me a prick one more time and you'll regret it," Raditz threatened.

"Leave her out of this!" Goku ordered with a growl.

I smirked slightly at the older brother, "Looks like I got good ole' Goku on my side; suck on that!"

Raditz was about to attack me when Goku grabbed hold of his tail; I really needed to keep my mouth shut before it got me in even more trouble than I already was. The rest of the fight between the two Saiyan brothers and Piccolo pretty much went along with the anime, so I wasn't missing much by ignoring the fight. I was irritable though that I didn't get to spend much time with the hero of the series; oh well, can't always have what we wish for. I yawned as Bulma and the others landed in the Capsule Core aircraft. One part of the series down, too many to count coming up around the corner...yippy...

I pulled out my earphones as they all looked over at me. I raised an eyebrow in question. "What are you staring at? Surely I'm not the only female you've seen with an accent," I said with a scowl.

"I don't know about them, but I have questions that I want answered," Piccolo stated before growing his arm back; I think I know where this is going...
