Among bright green grass lay a young woman who appeared to be around the age of eighteen. Her auburn hair was pulled into two pigtails that crisscrossed, their thigh length obscured by the tall swaying grass. One would look at her and see a beautiful creature with rusty colored skin. The girl opened her bright green eyes and sat up as if waking from a deep sleep. "Mm..."
Rhuda looked around and didn't recognize anything. "Where am I? What is this place?"
The environment was foreign. Grass with patches of dirt here and there, tall mountains further away with boulders populated randomly. All in all it was a field with nothing much to see.
She glanced down and saw that she was naked as a jay bird. "A-And why am I nude?!" Her breasts were large and jiggling as she covered them in alarm.
[System: Welcome to Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3]
"Eh? Isn't that...the game I was playing before?"
[System: Training Simulation Started]
"Training..?"
From nowhere erupted three green cabbage beings. They had sharp beady red eyes and cackled, snapping clawed hands together. "Eh heh heh!" They chortled.
"Oh no..." She looked around but didn't see a weapon. How am I going to fight these cabbage patch kids?
The first one dashed across the grass and swiped towards her person. Rhuda scuttled back, grabbed some grass and tossed it at it's green face.
+1 Health Saibaman
"Eh?! I-I gave them health?!"
(Voice: "Hey! What're you doing?")
"Ano-who's there?" Rhuda looked to and fro, unable to see anyone. She thought maybe it was the strange creatures talking but their mouths didn't move so it couldn't have been them.
(Voice: "What do you mean? It's me, Supreme Kai of Time!")
"S-Supreme...K-Kai-sama?" Rhuda squeaked out.
(SKOT: "Who else would it be, silly! Anyway, you're supposed to be training right now. Did you already forget?")
Sure, let's just go with it for now. "Yes, sorry about that...uhm, so I just need to defeat these guys right?"
(SKOT: "Of course! What kind of training would it be if you didn't have a little challenge? Go ahead, use your Ki Blasts to defeat them. Oh! And make sure to lock on, too.")
[System: To lock on to a moving target, move and look in their direction.]
"Eh...okay...?" Rhuda turned to the saibaman closest to her and looked at it. A ring shown around it's green head.
[System: Lock on confirmed! To use Ki Blasts to defeat an enemy, use 'Ki' ]
That one was harder for the girl to do. She had no idea how to use 'Ki' and thus spent a good thirty minutes trying, until at last growing mad and shoving her hand out. To her great surprise, orange beams shot from her palms. With five Ki Blasts the first Saibaman was defeated. "Guuurguugahh" It said in defeat.
A tiny bar at the bottom of her eyesight displayed Stamina, the other Health. Stamina was somewhat drained but the Health bar was still filled to maximum.
(SKOT: "Good job! Just two more to go!")
"Right...two more...okay, then.."
She was incredibly confused about everything going on but knew that she had somehow gotten into the game she'd been playing and needed to do this 'training' to get answers. Even if she was naked.
Utilizing the lock on and Ki Blasts both Saibamen gurgled and fell in defeat.

[New Skill Unlock: Ki Shot Burst]
Rhuda sighed in relief. It seemed that for now, all the enemies were-
"Arhahh!"
Another Saibaman, no wait, five more, and this time they were coming in right for the attack!
Rhuda backed away and turned. There were boulders nearby and she jumped over the closest one. There were just too many!
(SKOT: "Oh no-! This isn't part of the training!")
(SKOT: "Maybe I should send in some help-oh, Trunks! Are you there?")
(Trunks: "Yeah. Looks like trouble.")
(SKOT: "Trunks is on the way, Rhuda! Hang in there!")
Easy for her to say. It must be nice being in the background instead of the front lines. Rhuda would have to defend herself until help arrived it seemed. She stood and then glanced down, recalling that she was in fact naked. "Ano-Kai-sama?"
(SKOT: "Watch out! They're coming!")
"Kya!"
Rhuda was kicked into the sky. The Saibamen surrounded her on all sides. There was little time to figure out a good defense.
(SKOT: "Use your Ki Burst to knock away enemies!")
Oh. Right, that new skill she just got. Wait-how was she supposed to use that?
[System: To use Ki Burst, channel Ki and release from all sides. Can only be used once every five minutes]
Once every five minutes? That time limit seemed poorly done and wouldn't work in her favor at all. Still, Rhuda remembered how to use her Ki and channeled that same anger, only this time making sure to use all of her limbs. As such she was spread eagle and looked quite daring, hovering in the sky somehow. How was she even flying? She had no idea but would freak out about that later, when she wasn't in peril.
Anyway-
She successfully used Ki Burst and was able to knock back four saibamen. Right afterwards Rhuda used her Ki Blast and took aim, quickly firing off shots until each saibaman fell.
"Whew...I think I got them-"
The last of the five attached to her back. She slung herself around trying to get it off but it wouldn't budge an inch. "Kya! Get off me!"
Rhuda had a bad feeling something was about to happen. That's when she recalled their kamikaze attack which had felled Yamcha easily. It just so happened to be one of the few episodes she'd watched on Saturdays. This was bad! Very bad! "No! Kai-sama!"
(SKOT: "Rhuda, oh no! It's gotten onto her back!")
SLICE
"Guuuraaghhahh"
Something slithered over her person. She glanced back and saw that the cabbage man had been defeated, sliced into two pieces. The slithering feeling was it's gooey plasma. It fell down to the dirt twitching.
"Sorry I'm late."
The girl looked at her rescuer. He had long hair of lilac with brilliant blue eyes that spoke of high intelligence, peachy pink skin and broad shoulders. She looked at his outfit and saw it was a long black trench coat, opened to reveal a brown high neck vest. For pants he had dark gray jeans and even darker boots. There were also brown gloves and a huge ass sword, speckled with plasma.
[System: Trunks Briefs]
"Trunks-san..!" Rhuda gasped. She had never seen someone so handsome before in her life; how could he even exist? It didn't seem possible-oh wait, she was in a video game of course.
He smiled before glancing down. Right after he looked away, "Uhh...seems like you're missing some equipment." She could see that his face was red.
"Kya! I'm so sorry-ano, I don't-I mean-" she fumbled for words and tried to explain, but what came out instead was: "What are you looking at?"
Wait!
She didn't mean that! Why was her mouth not matching with her thoughts?
[System: Rhuda - Character Type Tsundere ]
Oh no.
That's right. She had chosen to be that way. What a stroke of bad fortune!
Trunks' face turned even redder. "I-I wasn't looking. Ahh...here, put this on for now."
He removed his jacket and held it out. Rhuda snatched it and put it on, noticing how long it was. It covered her hands and almost touched her ankles in comparison. It's so warm! And..smells really expensive. She casually sniffed it.
"So training turned out to be a real battle." He cleared his throat, "But I think you passed with flying colors. Good job!"
"Of course! I'm a saiyan after all," she blurted. Once again her thoughts weren't lining up correctly. Inwardly the girl cringed.
But Trunks merely laughed. "You sound like father more every day. I guess you would, considering how the two of you grew up together and all."
[System: Unlocked love interest 'Trunks Briefs']
"EH?!"
