So this is what Earth is?
You were here earlier Bardock.
Yeah, but it has been so long.
Yeah, it has. *sigh* It is good to see some of my old friends.
You saw some of your friends?
Yeah, I saw my friend Bob yesterday.
Bob? Was he your boyfriend or something?
Well he wasn't ever a boyfriend. But he has been a good friend.
I see. Have you seen anyone else?
Not yet. But we are going to the mall and it seems as if civilization here is picking up. We may see some more of them.
Yeah, we were told to do as little damage as possible.
Oh really? I wondered why you did such a bad job.
HEY!
Well I have seen some of the other planets you have conquered and you did like nothing here.
er...okay.
Nevermind
...
She smirked and looked out the window. A vision of something taking over Vegeta sei came across her, but she quickly blocked it out.
~*~*~*~
"Come on! Get up!" I pinched Bardock's arm in a fifith attempt to get him up. He screamed and sat up. "Much better. We gotta go meet up with everyone at the library."
"This early?!"
"It is eight am...I think...um...maybe this clock is wrong." I put the clock down. Bardock groaned and tried to rub the sleepiness out of his eyes. He then picked up his clothes that he had carelessly tossed aside last night from the ground and got dressed. I was already to go and half way out the door. I could hear Bardock complaining behind me. I couldn't help but giggle, that was until Mr. Stanley approached me. I know what he wanted. He wanted to be fed. Oh how it hurt me to see him. If I did go back to Vegeta sei I wouldn't be able to bring him back unless...to the library! I must research the way the enviorment works. I sighed and shut the door. I would come back with some cat food later on today. Bardock on the other hand just opened my window and stepped out. He started flying in the wrong way, but I didn't say anything. I just giggled and jumped into the breeze. That was one good thing about being a psychic. You have the ability to fly. Bardock yelled from behind me and I could sense his ki raise so that he could catch up to me. I waved and stopped. He kept flying past me until I told him he was going too far south. "Just follow me!"
"Whatever."
"It is this way." I grabbed his hand and started flying in the direction of the mall. Your homeworld looks so much more different from an arial prespective. I looked around for some type of land mark to see where I was. I could see route 40 below me so if we kept heading east we would eventually hit the mall. My scouter was picking up my friend's ki. That was a good sign. The mall was directly below us. I spotted the library to the right of it and landed at the library's doors. Everyone was already inside taking over the place grabbing all the books they could. I stopped Corniss. "Hey. Is everyone here?"
"Yeah. You guys are the last. Everyone is putting them into capsules. Is there anything in particular that you want?"
"Yes. I want copies of all great literature. Rely on humans for that. And I want great books filled with science, health, math, you know that kind of thing. Oo! And pick up some books on grammar for me! I need to get back into my old habbits. Who knows, I may actually find time to write a book or something." Corniss stared at my blankly. "Nevermind. Just get the books that Lex, Tom and Nichol tell you to get." He nodded and started off towards Nichol. I myself started down all the different rows looking for anything on the enviorment. I wanted to take my only family back with me. I shouldn't say only. Lex, Tom, Nichol and Bardock were all my family now. And I guess you could call Bardock's crew my cousins or something along those lines. I picked up a book on transporting animals from one ecosystem to the next and sat down on a chair. Everynow and then someone would ask me a question, interupting my reading. It didn't really bother me though. I would simply answer their question quickly without ever taking my eyes off the pages.
Those next few days were kind of hazy. I found a way to move Mr. Stanley to Vegeta-sei. It might not be safe and it might screw up the ecosystem, but it is well worth the risk. I remember going to see all of my friend's homes and towns. It was really interesting. We all then went over to Japan and got a lot of dried ramen. We also picked up some anime's on dvd. The last thing we did was take apart our computers and bring them to the ships. It was time to head back to Vegeta-sei. To tell the truth I was rather impressed in how the surviving humans were building a rather complex civilization and having no trouble at all. They had the interenet, electricty and all the plumbing working. Except for in some developing worlds where there was none of that in the first place. I was right now in my house picking up a few last things. After doing some research I found that none of my family was alive. So all the stuff in my house was mine. I didn't bother with things like furniture, but I picked up the the pictures, documents and such things. From my room I gathered all my stuff and I took a few of my brother's things too. Another thing that I got was my brother's play station 2 and the different video games that went with it. If I had to live on Vegeta sei I had better have my Tekken Tag game otherwise I would lose my mind. The last stuff I got was all my cat's toys, his leash, and his box. He loves sitting in his card board box.
After putting these all into the storage compartments on the ship I headed to the bridge where the take off procedures were going to begin. Mr. Stanley was on my heels following me every where. Not like he had much choice anyway. I had him on his leash. He used to be an indoor cat and so, to let him go play outside and not get hurt (he is declawed) we would put him on a leash. Once we were on the bridge, Bardock got up out of my chair and let me sit down. He also picked up Mr. Stanley and started scratching his neck. For some strange reason he was very fond of my pet. Corniss came in and took his position to my left. "Everyone is here and acounted for. We are ready for the lift off procedures," he stated calmly.
"Go ahead. I already told you all, I have no idea how to work this thing." Corniss nodded and started shouting out orders. I shook my head and just watched the blue sky one last time. Little did I know, it would be my last time seeing it. The warm sun waved good bye and before I knew it we were on our way back to Vegeta. A small tear came to my eye, but I quickly pushed it away. I wouldn't let leaving Earth get to me.
The trip back was uneventful. Bardock stayed away from all machinces that he had the potentnial to break and Corniss tried to flirt with Nichol some more. Now Nichol, being the person she is, just totally ignored him, but the whole thing seemed like a really funny soap opera to all of us. But the most surprising thing was when we got back to Vegeta sei. I had put Mr. Stanley in my room and uneventfully I was unloading all of my personal stuff. Bardock was there helping me too and we were talking about some weird stuff when these men, that we had never seen before came walking down the hall. They stopped in our presence and studied us for a moment. One was very feminen looking with green hair and a pailer green skin. The other was a pink fat man with a spikey head. The feminen one opened his mouth first. "What are you doing in the palace?! You have no place here!" Bardock of course became very offeneded, but before he could say anything stupid I sent him a telepathic message telling him to let me handle this.
"And what makes you think that?"
"Both of you not needed here! This is the palace of Vegeta sei! Now get your low class selves out of here!" Bardock was coming closer to his boiling point. I only smirked.
"Do you know who I am?" Neither one of them answered. "I am Kim. Daughter of the prophecy and leader of the Saiya-jins. Now you have five seconds to run for your lives." They didn't run, they just laughed. They couldn't believe that someone with such a small power level could be not only the daughter of a prophecy or the unofficial ruler of the Saiya-jins. I counted down the seconds and kept smiling. The second I reached five I rose my hands raising both of them high into the air. In their minds I was playing games of them thinking they couldn't fly anymore or that they couldn't fight either. Both of them were freaking out. I slowly placed them back down on the ground and restored to them their normal brain waves. They looked at each other and then at me and very quickly they were on their knees. "Get off the floor right now! Now tell me, who are you and what are you doing here in the palace?" The pink man spoke this time.
"I am Dodria and this is my partner Zarbon. We work for our lord, Freeza."
"My name is Kim. This is my friend Bardock. Now, why would working for Freeza be a reason for being here in the palace?"
"Freeza has come to Vegeta-sei looking to make a deal with the Saiya-jins."
"Oh really? What kind of deal?"
"It is not at our leave to discuss such things."
"Hm...is he here in the palace?"
"Yes."
"Take me too him. He and I have to have a little chat." Dordria and Zarbon nodded. I motioned for Bardock to follow me as the two men lead us to a meeting room in the palace. The walk there was silent. There was a lot of tense emotions coming from the two men who were leading us, but Bardock was as calm as ever, even though he was kind of mad at what Zarbon had said about us being low class. They opened the doors to the main meeting room and stood aside for us to enter. There was the king and a small man with horns in deep discussion. The king immediatly stood up when I entered the room.
"Kim! You are back! Did you get everything we need?"
"Yes. I have been back with everyone for the last two hours. And let me say that I am not in a good mood. I did get everything I need. As for the welcoming party you left me," I pointed to Zarbon and Dordria. "It was less than pleasing. What is going on and who is this Freeza person I keep hearing about?" The short man stood up and frowned.
"I am Lord Freeza. And who might you be?"
"I am Kim. But you may refer to me as Kim sama until I notify you otherwise.

Author's note: Well, did you all like it? I hope you did. I know that some parts in there were really rushed, but I was having a lot of blocks on this story. I am working on an original story that I hope to have published so I won't be putting these chapters out so fast anymore. Please review! =^_^=
