Hey!!! Okay I know this took an extremely long time, but my brain wasn't working and I was having a little trouble writing. Throw in the busy schedule I keep all week and that gives you the reason it takes me so long. Thanks again to all those who review my story. It is greatly appreciated. A special thanks to MK-chan, who has been very kind to me.
Disclaimer : I do not own Sailor Moon or Dragon Ball Z (I do own some things though. Nothing of any worth, well at least to anyone but me.)
Rebuilding a Broken Soul
Chapter 3
~*~ At the Son House ~*~
"Hey Chichi!" yelled Goku. "We're back!"
"It's about time! Do you know how long you've been gone? It's been – oh! Hello. Who are you?" asked Chichi, stopping mid-rave, noticing Serena.
"This is Serena," said Gohan. "It's okay that she stays with us for a while right?"
"Of course it is!!" replied Chichi. "I'm sorry that you've had to put up with those two. I hope they didn't bother you too much."
"No, they didn't bother me at all," said Serena. "They have been very nice."
"Good, now where are you from Serena? How long will you be staying here?"
The memories started coming again. The long history with her "friends". Their act of betrayal. Serena began to crumple to the floor, tears coming to her eyes, getting ready to fall. Chichi noticed this immediately.
Realizing her mistake in asking, Chichi said, "I'm sorry. You don't have to say anything if you don't want to. Here come with me, I'll show you to your room, and you can rest if you want to. Come on now."
With that said, Chichi left with Serena to the guest bedroom.
"What happened to her?" Gohan thought out loud.
"I don't know, but whatever it is, it must have been horrible," said Goku. "We must be very careful about what we do around her. She must have been hurt terribly wherever she came from."
"Yes, and the scars are still inside of her," commented Gohan. *I hope she feels better soon*
~*~ The next day ~*~
When Serena got up the next morning she was slightly confused by her surroundings. Than she remembered she was at the Son house. They were being so nice to let her stay with them. It probably wasn't easy for them. She got up, and walked downstairs. She could smell something delicious coming from the kitchen.
"This smells wonderful Chichi!" exclaimed Serena.
"Why thank you. Please sit down and help yourself."
Serena had sat down and begun eating. She was trying to hold her self back, so as not to embarrass herself in front of her hosts. But than she noticed the rate at which Goku was consuming food, and figured she couldn't be worse than him, so she started eating at her normal speed. Gohan and Chichi were shocked. They had never seen a human that much so fast. She could easily rival Goku for the amount of food she was eating.
"That was delicious as usual Chichi," said Goku.
"I agree," declared Serena.
"Wow!" said Gohan. "I've never seen anyone who can eat as much as my Dad."
"Well, I haven't eaten a good home cooked meal in such a long time, I just couldn't help myself," replied Serena.
"Oh my!" exclaimed Chichi. "Your wearing the same thing as you were yesterday. Come, come. I'll see if I have anything that fits you. I'll take you over to Bulma's today, and then we can go out and get you some clothes."
"Oh, I couldn't have you do that," protested Serena.
"Do you have a better idea"
"Ummm........ well no."
"Good! Than it's settled. Come with me."
~*~ Later that day at CC ~*~
DING DONG
Bulma opened the door to see Chichi, and who Bulma assumed was Serena.
"Hello Chichi," exclaimed Bulma. "It's so good to see you again. It's not easy only living with guys. You must be Serena."
"Yes," replied Serena. "Pleased to meet you."
"Well, now that all the formal stuff is out of the way, LET'S GO SHOPPING!!!"
*Maybe these guys aren't too bad* Serena thought. *After all, they obviously like to shop*
~*~ That night ~*~
"Wow, I'm exhausted," proclaimed Bulma.
"No kidding," agreed Chichi. "We haven't done any serious shopping like that for a long time."
"That was fun!" exclaimed Serena. "We should do that again sometime."
Both Bulma and Chichi stare at Serena.
"I mean not in the near future, but the later future."
They all look at each other again, and crack up laughing. Serena had thoroughly enjoyed herself today. It was good to be out among people again.
"So Serena," said Bulma. "Do you want to meet the rest of the gang? We could have a big 'Welcome to Our World Serena' party."
"Well..... I couldn't put you through the trouble, and you've already done so much for me...."
Serena couldn't finish before Chichi interrupted, "Oh! That's a great idea. We haven't had a get together in so long. It'll be good to see everyone all together again."
"But...," started Serena.
"No 'buts' from you," said Bulma. "It's no trouble to us at all. Besides you're going to have to meet them at some point anyways."
"Well alright," surrendered Serena. "BUT I am helping you guys get ready for it."
"Alright. It's agreed then. We'll have one big bash coming up tonight."
