Roller skating?
You got a problem with it?
You have a purpose here you know. You aren't here to just have fun.
Hey! Roller skating is a great sport that shouldn't be lost just because of what you think.
But the prophecy!
So?
You should be helping the people! Not building toys!
I am helping people. Instead of fighting people could skate.
Er...that isn't what we had in mind.
Your point?
...
The voice died away and the girl smirked. She was starting to win with him and soon he might be gone from her head completely. A vision passed across her. This one showed a world that she had never seen. Something with slums and poverty to new levels. She shook her head and shut her eyes trying to block it out. It was too painful.
~*~*~*~
"Come on everyone! Get on the floor! It isn't that hard!" All of my work payed off. I had turned the old training room into a roller rink. There was a small snack bar thing with drinks, chairs, and a small DJ that was mine. I might just start charging people or I might build another bigger roller rink where everyone could reach it. Right now though I was teaching Lex, Tom and Nichol how to skate. I had been skating for about an hour when they had walked in. They had put on their skates and tried to stand up. Sure they had some skill, but I think they were used to skating on roller blades. Never the less, they would have to learn to skate in these because this is all we have. They were taking their time getting onto the floor so I sped up and just started going at my own speed. My normal speed was fast, I loved going fast. I couldn't fly like all the other Saiya-jins, but this was pretty close. During those next few weeks I got a lot of people on skates and the taylor in town became a skate maker. He said he had fun making them. Even the king had his own pair, but that was only the beginning of my time on Vegeta-sei. The rest of it wasn't so much fun.
Five years later, I was grown up. I wasn't the scared little teenager anymore. I was a younge adult, at the age of twenty. I hadn't really been making any changes either, unless you included the roller rinks sprouting up everywhere. Those five years I had spent training my psycic abilities. People from all over the universe were brought to teach me and my friends. We learned of what we could do and how we could do what we needed to do. We learned of the forces in the universe. We learned about our ki and how to use it. I have made a lot of friends too, along with Bardock. About two years ago I started going around the world giving speeches. None of them really meant anything other than a few promises. As for the prophecy, I don't really know if I believe in it or not. I know a lot of people believe in me to do this task, but I am not sure I want to. I have been given a chance to live only for this. But I think I would rather help people than sit around doing nothing for anyone. I felt a hand on my back and looked up. I had been sitting on the porch of my bedroom for a while now I guess. "Bardock? What are you doing here? Aren't you exposed to be on planet Yesair?" Bardock had grown up too. He was more built and a lot more calm then when I had first met him. We both were no longer children.
"Whoa slow down. One question at a time. We finished early so I came to visit and ask you something important." He stopped and looked into my eyes.
"Shoot." He took a deep breath and started.
"A girl will come with her friends and bring the land into a new era. An era of prosperity and peace. She will end all civil wars and unite the people. Her powers, and her friend's, are undescribable. Each has intense pshycic abilities that cannot be matched no matter how much a person trains. She will be marked with a square on the face. A square resembles unity and equality. Her friends are like body gaurds and advisors because not one person can do it alone. She though has natural leadership qualities and will lead them through the process. When are you going to start Kim?" He really wants this just as much as everyone else. He wants me to fix his problems. I looked from his eyes to the sky.
"Do you really think that I am her?"
"I know it."
"I don't think I have the ability to do such a task."
"I believe in you." I looked over to him.
"You do?" He nodded and sat down next to me on the ground. "I don't know how to start."
"Yes you do. You just don't realize it. You live in the palace and are friends with the King. You can get anything that you want."
"Well..."
"I will help you all the way."
"Thanks Bardock."
"No problem. I gotta go report in. See ya around." He patted my knee and stood up.
"Later." I waved and looked back up to the sky. I guess it was time to get working. I know a lot that could be changed here. And even if I am not her, doing something good (that is nonviolent) would be great for the planet and its people. First though I would have to find everything wrong and start from their. I picked up my note pad and started making a list of everything I felt needed to be changed.
When I felt my list complete enough I stood up and started down the hall to where the King's thrown room was. Unfortuantly he wasn't there. So I started to where his training room was in hopes that he was there. I could hear sounds of a battle going on so I opened the door and looked in. Lex was training with the King. She was the strongest of us all and she loved to fight though her and the king didn't get along at all. I decided not to interupt them and wait for them to finish. As they were fighting the King had cornered Lex back up against a wall and now he had his shoulder pressed against her's to keep her still. His lips touched hers and they started really going out at the make out session so I shut the door and left them alone. I could feel my face blushing bright red. So, instead of going to the King about it I decided to see what I would need to get the job done.
The first thing on my list was education. The majority of Saiya-jins only went to school till the third grade. It was terrible. They didn't know basic things that they should know. So first I went to the room where the mad of the world was. I had been in here many times. It was one of the many meeting rooms that was usually used as a military room. So I pulled out all the maps from the desk against the wall and set them all on the table. I then pulled out the demographics information. The population right now was in the billions. Most of the people were found in the cities of Vegeta (the capital), Farn, Teset, and Pult. Each were equildistant from each other and had launching stations for pods. There were a few cities around those, but those seemed to be the most important, so that is where universities would be built. Elementary schools would be built in every city and town. Then secondary schools would also be built in every single one of them. The secondary school would be like highschool teaching more advanced stuff. After that the person could go to trade school, a university to learn more or to military school. Military schools would be built on the outskirts of the four main cities. The same thing with trade schools. There would be four universities, one for each city. People would be a lot older when they started fighting for their people, but that would be better for everyone in the end. I wrote all this down on my notepad and then started the planning of how this would all happen.
I worked through the night. When ever I was set to doing something I didn't even bother to take a break. Someone had come in once and had found me in here so they quickly left. That was hour ago. It was probably dawn by now. I stood up and stretched before going over to the window to look outside. It was much later than dawn. Probably around nine by now. I yawned and closed the blinds. It was far too bright. I then looked back over to my work and found that I was ahead of my own schedual by hours. All that I needed to do was make the arrangments to get this started. Someone opened the door and stepped in. "Kim! Did you even sleep last night?" It was Nichol and Tom. Both were obviously worried about me.
"No. I was working on this. It is plans for a school system." I handed the notebook to them to see it. They sat down next to each other so that they could both read it. Luckily for them I wrote in English. I still have a hard time writting in Saiyango. I can do it, but it is so much more natural for me to speak, write and think in English even though every now and then Saiyango comes to mind.
"It looks good. I can't believe you figured this out all in one night!" Nichol stated. I just nodded and waited for Tom to say something.
"I think it should work. But how are you going to get interest in schooling."
"Laws. A law that everyone at a certain age must go to school and they cannot go to the third level schools until they have completed the first and secondary levels." Tom nodded.
"You are developing a hate for school."
"No one here has been to school or if they have it is because they wanted to go to it. They don't really know what it is. So you think it will work?"
"Yeah, I guess it will."
"Thanks. Hey, where is Lex?"
"We couldn't find her any where. I did over hear some rumor that she was with the king doing the nasty." I blushed and thought back to yesterday.
"I don't think that is a rumor Tom. I saw them making out." Tom and Nichol started laughing really hard and before long I found myself laughing with them. It was always nice to get a few good laughes in everynow and then. Especially after all that work. "I think I am going to go take a nap and then I will go through all of this with the King. Laterz minna."
"Bai Kim."
"Have a good rest Kim," Nichol replied. I waved and started down the many paths to my room. I felt as if I could sleep away the rest of the day and into tomorrow, but I wouldn't be able to just yet because Bardock was leaning against my door. I stopped a few feet away from him.
"Hey."
"Hey," I replied.
"Where were you all yesterday and last night? I was getting worried."
"Sorry." I held up the notepad. "I was just going through school reforms." He grinned.
"Good. Soon we will all be living a better life."
"Hopefully."
"You look tired. I will let you get some sleep. See ya around."
"Bye." He moved aside from my door and let me enter it. I was finally able to get some well deserved sleep. In the morning I would see the King.
