Susan opened her eyes and sat straight up, being somewhere unfamiliar. The events of yesterday came back into her mind.
"I really am under to much stress" she mumbled to her self. She looked over to her clock and in bright red colors it read "7:00". See she had made herself get into the routine of waking up at exactly 7:00. It was sort of her planned morning. Standing up she yawned, and stretched some.
Reaching for her bag, she pulled out a pair of jeans and a white shirt. She quickly got dressed and stepped out the door. Trying to decide where she should go, the grumbling in her stomach decided for her. Starting to realize she didn't know where the kitchen was, she started searching.
Looking through a bunch of hallways, stairs, and the occasional huge door, Susan came to a conclusion, I'm lost she thought aggravated. She then ran into something very hard.
"Oh, sorry" she mumbled, more worried about getting to the kitchen.
"Watch where you are going, women. Stay out of the prince of Sayians way." Vegeta started to stomp off.
"More like the prince of trolls" Susan muttered under her breath. Because of Vegeta's sayian hearing, he heard her.
"What did you say!" He demanded, turning to face her.
"I said 'More like the prince of trolls!" She yelled into his face.
"You!" his face was fuming blood red. A huge ki ball was forming in his hands
"Uh, oh." Susan admitted, before she started to run towards the stairs.
"FINAL FL..." was all Susan heard before disappearing down the stairs. She saw the ball of light pass by her and through the side of the house.
"Opps. Mental reminder, never call Vegeta a troll." She continued down the stairs trying to get away from Vegeta. Finally she reached a door labeled kitchen. Susan stepped inside to see Trunks fixing himself a bowl of cereal.
"Hi, looks like someone is finally awake"
"Actually I've been up for a while, I just kinda got lost. Oh yeah, the wall above the steps, is well, gone" He looked at her and laughed. Susan was surprised at his reaction.
"You called dad short didn't you" She simply nodded.
"Oh don't worry, you got off easy. Once, one of the businessmen staying here called dad short, then he got a one way trip all the way to America. We got a phone call from him one week later saying he was in New York, and when he found out who dad was, he automatically agreed to the deal we was trying to get him to agree to." They both had a good laugh over it till Vegeta came in through the door with a very angry Bulma following him.
"Vegeta, you have got to stop blowing up the walls. I am going to go broke fixing all things you tear up or destroy." It was apparent to everyone, except Bulma, that Vegeta was ignoring every word she said. His eyes widened when he saw Susan.
"You! I'm going to kill you," he shouted to Susan preparing to blow her to the next dimension.
"Vegeta, if you do, you'll be sleeping on the couch." She yelled pointing her finger at Vegeta.
"Fine" Vegeta, admitted, putting his hands down "we'll finish this later." He turned and walked off to train.
"Let me guess, you're the on who called him short, uh."
"Yep, The prince of trolls to be exact." They all 3 broke into laughter.
"Ring...Ring..."
"Let me get it" Bulma announced calming down her laughter.
"Hello, ..., oh hi Goku, ..., yeah she stayed with us, ..., of course I can cook for you Chi-Chi's still mad uh, ..., let me ask her." She looked away from the phone and over at Susan
"Susan, Goku wants to know if it would be okay to start training today..." they then heard yelling coming out of the phone. Bulma brought it back up to her ear worried, but then her face went to a embarrassed look.
"Of course, how could I forget," Bulma looked back at Susan "after breakfast though."
"Yeah, sure. I want to get started as early as I can."
"That would be fine Goku, ..., okay be over as soon as you can, bye." she then hung up the phone. Before anyone could say anything, Goku appeared right before them.
"Hello, everybody. Where's the food?" Coming out of shock Bulma spoke up.
"Goku, I have to cook the food first."
"Oh, sorry."
"Why don't you go out back and spar with Vegeta."
"Okay." Goku skipped outside like a child.
"Some things never change." Bulma announced while shaking her head. She walked into the kitchen.
"Hey, Trunks. Do you think we could go watch them, I've never seen 2 SSJ`s fight before."
"Sure, but I would watch out for lose ki balls" Trunks warned. Susan jogged out the door, not wanting to miss the fighting.
When they got out there, they were all ready in the air. As the two SSJ's fought out their duel, Trunks and Susan watched. All of a sudden, Goku sent a KA-ME-HA-ME-HA Vegeta's way, and hit him head on.
"You will pay for that, Kakarot. FINAL FLASH!!!!!!" Goku shot out of the way, just at the last second, but a spare building was not so lucky. The ball of ki turned the building into a pile of rubble, and unfortunately, for Vegeta, Bulma came out the side of the building.
"VEGETA!
"What women, it was just some spare building, no damage done"
"Vegeta do you know what was in that spare building?" she was fuming,
"No, probably junk"
"That was the building where we keep the food." Goku's face turned pale and he fell to his knees.
"Kami, no. What did I do to deserve this !" He started banging the ground with his fists.
"Goku, listen, you can go to McDonalds and get some food. There is one near here." Goku immediately shot off the ground and was in the air.
"Vegeta, follow him"
"And why should I do that"
"Because, one, Goku is going to get to McDonalds, order 5 of everything, then realize he has no money with him. And second if you don't you won't be eating for a while." Vegeta`s eyes shot open at her last statement.
"Fine, women." He flew off to catch up.
"Hey wait up." Trunks yelled and flew to catch up with the 2 full-blooded Sayians.
"Sayians, they bring new meaning to the phrase 'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach'." They both had a good laugh, and Bulma walked to her lab to work.
"What should I do now. I know." Susan ran back into the building, and went to her room. She came back out with her CD player, and headphones. She walked over to a tree, and sat down leaning up against it. She placed her favorite CD in and pressed play.
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was lookin kinda dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun,
You're brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with takin the backstreets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
Hey now, you're an All Star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a Rock Star, get the show on, get paid,
And all that glitters is gold
Only shootin stars break the mold
It's a cool place, and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now, wait till ya get older.
But the media men beg to differ
Judgin by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is gettin pretty thin
The water's gettin warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how about yours?
Cuz that's the way I like it and I never get bored
Hey now, you're an All Star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a Rock Star, get the show on, get paid,
And all that glitters is gold
Only shootin stars break the mold.
Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep, what a concept, I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun,
You're brain gets smart but the head gets dumb
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with takin the backstreets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
Hey now, you're an All Star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a Rock Star, get the show on, get paid,
And all that glitters is gold
Only shootin stars break the mold
"Well I see you like music" Susan looked up to see a figure in a cloak. He had a dark aura surrounding him that had a evil appearance to it. Susan felt an extreme coldness coming off him. She slid down her headphones and stuttered.
"W-Who are y-you?"
"Oh, you will find out soon enough, but just remember this, Watch your back" then he was gone as soon as he had appeared. Yep, Susan was frozen solid with fear. She sat like that for a couple of minutes, until 3 pairs of very familiar shoes landed in front of her.
"Hey, Susan are you okay." Trunks said, waving his hand in front of her
.
"Cloak.., figure..., watch..."
"What are you talking about!" Vegeta demanded. Susan shook her head, coming out of shook.
"There was a figure in a cloak and he said I would find out who he is later, then he said to watch my back. Way too much stuff has happened to me in just 2 days."
"Well, I don't know what we should do, but...wait what is that around your neck."
"Oh, these are just headphones."
"No, not those, that" he said pointing to Susan's neck. Susan looked down to see her necklace sticking out through her shirt. She put her hand over the jewelry and spoke up.
"Oh that, it's nothing. Uh, I'm going to go inside, yeah that's it." Than she turned and ran inside.
"What was that all about?" Trunks questioned to an eating Goku.
"Kakarot, leave some for the rest of us!" Vegeta yelled.
"Rorry" Goku apologized with a mouth full of food.
"We should get this inside." Trunks said, and the three walked inside towards the kitchen.
Susan ran all the way to her room, slid in and shut the door. She fell against the door and slid down, to the floor. She looked at the necklace, and a memory came into her mind.
~@~ Flash Back ~@~
Susan was standing on the porch with a boy that had black crewcut hair, and sparkling brown eyes.
"I'm really sorry Susan."
"Its okay, Chris, I know it's not your choice."
"Listen before I leave I want to give you something"
"Oh, I couldn't except it."
"No, I insist." He then pulled out a beautiful light blue, gem necklace. He placed it around her neck and stepped off the porch.
"Bye Susan. Remember me okay"
"How could I forget you." He stepped into the car and was gone, forever.
~@~ End Flash Back ~@~
Susan was now in tears. Then she heard footsteps coming towards her door. She quickly wiped her tears away and hid the necklace under her shirt. Then the person knocked on the door.
"Come in" Bulma stuck her head in the door.
"Hey, Susan. You might want to come downstairs, They've ate almost all the food."
"Coming" She followed Bulma down to the dinning room. The seen she saw when they entered through the door, was priceless.
Goku was hidden under a pile of wrappers and burgers, Vegeta was cursing him out in different languages, and Trunks was standing in the corner muttering to himself saying "I don't know them, I have never seen them in my life." over and over. Susan and Bulma were on the verge of tears. Falling to the floor laughing, the men finally noticed the women's presence.
"Kakarot! Get out of there!" Goku popped his head out of the wrappers.
"Hi, everybody. I think there's some burgers left, let me check." He ducked his head under and popped it back out with two burgers in his hands. Bulma walked over and took them out of his hands before he could devour them too.
"Kakarot, you are a disgrace to the sayian race." He walked out the door towards the gravity room.
"Hey, wait up, Vegeta." Goku jumped out of the pile, and ran after him.
"I don't need this" Trunks mumbled to himself and went towards his office. Susan and Bulma turned towards each other, and again broke out in laughter. The two women sat down at the table, and ate their food. When Susan was done she turned to Bulma and said.
"Hey do you think I should go ask Goku to start training?"
"That would probably be a good idea." Susan sat up and started towards the door.
"Thanks, Bulma" and she disappeared.
Reaching the gravity room, which was only a few miles away from the main building, she saw Goku looking through the window in on Vegeta.
"Hey Goku." He turned around.
"Hey!" He yelled back, waving his hands.
"Listen, I wanted to know if we could start training now"
"Oh, yeah, I forgot." Susan face-faulted "hey, I know where we can go. There is a really big clearing in the forest, where me and Vegeta usually spar."
"Cool, lead the way." Goku shot off into the air, but only got a couple of feet off the ground, when he looked back.
"Oh, yeah. You can't fly. I guess I could carry you." He walked over and picked her up and they were off. They touched down in the clearing, and Susan quickly stood up.
"I think the first thing you should learn is how to fly."
"Yeah"
So through the day they worked on flying, which she learned pretty quickly, sensing ki, then we they got to simple hand to hand combat, Goku got a surprise.
"Well I use to take a karate class."
"Oh really"
"Yeah, I was about to go for my black belt, but I quit."
"Why"
"Well, we couldn't af...I mean I lost interest"
"Don't worry, I understand" The rest of the evening went through without a hitch. Goku started to teach her some ki blasts, and she after a while, almost mastered the KA-ME-HA-ME-HA.
"You know, I've never someone who could learn so fast. Its amazing."
"Thanks, my granny use to say I could see someone do something and copy it perfectly."
"Yeah, well she was right. I think that's enough for today, it's getting dark."
"Uh, Goku, could you show me the way back to CC, I'm not sure how to get back"
"Sure"
They blasted off and arrived at CC very shortly. They touched down and Susan turned to face Goku.
"Thanks"
"See you tomorrow. I'll call to tell you what time"
"Cool, bye."
"Bye" then Goku sped toward his house. Susan headed for the door and walked in. She headed for her room, she was a total mess and she didn't want anyone to see her. She was two feet from her door when a voice came from behind her.
"You never did tell us what that thing was around your neck."
"Hey Trunks, listen it is necklace, it was a gift from a friend. See you in the morning." Before he could ask any questions she walked into her room and shut the door.
Falling down on her bed she let out a sigh. She trusted Trunks, but she didn't want to explain about the necklace. After a couple of minutes she fell asleep.

On a ship, in the blackness of space, a screen shows the sleeping teen. An evil voice crackles in the darkness.
"Oh, you just wait, Susan. Just wait for what I have planned for you. MWHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAH..." Then the light revels none other than the cloaked figure.
