Chapter 2: Dance With death? Or Would You Rather Tango With Time? Ors How About...

Falling, falling, falling...not exactly the greatest feeling in the world, considering the Law of Gravity and all.

But anyways, that's what the Dyslexic Duo(*Giggles* Just Kidding!!!) was feeling. More specifically, Sailor Saturn felt like she was going to throw up, and Keisei felt like she was going to die of pain from the tickling sensation in her toes! (She's hyper-sensative, also will be explained later on! Dankus!)

After a few minutes of free-falling through nothingness, they were met with a sudden burst of light and color, though they were still falling. Not for long, though, as THIS author would have it!

Gohan looked up, just in time to see a girl yelling, falling, and sufficiently freaked -what's more, she was right above him, and falling FAST! Instinctively, he flew up and caught her not-so-gently, and set the poor girl on the ground.

Tien also had a "girl problem", (*Giggles* JK! *Grins widely*) but this time it WASN'T Lunch! ^c^*! More specifically, it was a strangely-dressed girl in a mini-skirt and bows holding a leathal-looking staff, falling, screaming, and REALLY scared! Automatically, he flew up and caught her gently, then set the other poor girl on the ground.

Gohan, Tien, and Chout-zu had been training, whilst Piccolo watched amusedly from his "perch" beside a tree. Yamcha had promised he'd be coming later, obviously on another date -boy, was Bulma gonna' be mad! ^U^!

This sudden occurrance definantly added some flavor to the everyday happenings of their lives so far, but the reason left the three of them dumbfounded. Specifically the little "birdy" by the tree.

Shakily, cautiously, Keisei opened her eyes and looked around. She had stopped yelling strange, unintelligible words when she felt the grass underneath her, but now she wanted to continue. Continue she did, "HOLY TAMOLY IN CHEEZE-FILLED LOZANGES UNDER THE ALLMIGHTY CHEEZY FROG OF BOGS!!!"

Gohan blinked stupidly. What the HECK did THAT mean?!? Politely, he waited for her to continue.

Keisei realized that the poor thing hadn't understood that, and that was good -it wasn't meant to be understood. But she also realized that these people could be the ones that brought her here. But why? She could understand Sailor Saturn, but her? Perhaps she got in the way. But why would they save THEM if they purposed harm? All these questions were making her head hurt -she just plain needed to find Saturn and make sure she was all right, THEN she could ask questions. Yeah, good plan! 'Great, JUST GREAT!!!' She thought to herself as she tried to get up, the other half of her mind whirling with theories, accusations, and answers, while the other side forced her to run over to Saturn and make sure she was okay.

"Are you okay?" Asked Keisei, concerned. Her friend wasn't goin' to die -not while SHE existed!

"Y-Yeah...w-where are we? Where're Michi-mama and Haruk-papa???" Asked Hotaru.

Keisei nodded, "they're obviously fine, it's us we should be worried about...you don't know where we are? Do you know any of these peoples?"

Saturn shook her head, "no."

Nodding, Keisei stood up, giving a hand to help the Saturnanian Princess up. Saturn obliged, and went about brushing herself off and checking them both for any damage. Fine, as far as she could see -and Keisei didn't complain about anything, so she knew they were both fine...but WHERE WERE they???

Tien, seeing both of them were fine, albiet thoroughly confused, spoke up, "Are you guys okay? You took quite a fall there."

"Yeah!" Chirped Chout-zu.

"Yeah, thanks." Responded Keisei, trying to grin appreciatively, though the situation caused her roughly-developed sense of manners to elude her.

"Hai, arugatoo." Came Saturn's reply, as she bowed respectively, cuing Keisei to do the same, allthough it was clear they WEREN'T in Japan anymore.

Tien, Chout-zu, and Gohan bowed back, "No problem!"

Piccolo just stared dumbfoundedly from the tree, not really believing what he was seeing.

"Okays, NOW back to business -where are we?" Asked Keisei, skipping right to the point.

"Earth?" Came the unanimous reply from Tien, Chout-zu, and Gohan. Sweatdropps appeared on everybodys' heads.

Allthough the info. might have seemed stupid to anybody else, Keisei and Saturn accepted it eargerly, "Thanks! Now, WHERE on Earth are we?" ANYBODY from their world would notice the lack of pollutants in the air! ^v^*!

"Uuummm...nowhere, at the moment...you see, we were out here training when you guys..."dropped in" on us." Replied Gohan.

"Oh," replied Keisei. She decided to leave the personal questions for later -right now, she had a Princess AND a friend to protect, however weak a protection she might be. She had figured out the Senshi's identities, and promised not to tell a soul if she could take pictures of them when they were fighting. Since she had proved a useful decoy beforehand, not to mention a good photographer, they agreed.

She now put her pictures up online for all to see, and was widely known all around the world as "The Chibi-Phantom no Photo"! Good thing she wore her Phantom of the Opera mask when she took pictures!

"Please, sirs, would you by any chance know how we could get back to Tokyo, Japan?" Asked Saturn.

"Tokyh-"

"-Japahana???" Asked Tien and Gohan, all sufficiently lost by now.

Keisei and Saturn's sweatdropps increased in size dramatically. Piccolo, finally swallowing the huge lump in his throat, got up the nerve to speak, "Tokyo, Japan does not exist here. You have faultily stumbled into a universe of an alternate course."

"WHAT!?! WE'RE IN AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE!?! AAAHHH!!!" Shouted Keisei, letting loose her panic so it wouldn't confuse her thinking later on.

"Oh, no! What happened??? Please, sirs, did you see anything unusual?" Replied Saturn, her mind racing.

After Keisei had let loose her moment of panic upon this new world, she calmly added, "No sinister laughing, bloody-red eyes, hugh, black, shiny, claw-like hands???" Everyone stared at her strangely except for Saturn, who just giggled, as Keisei made mocking renditions with her hands.

Quickly composing herself, "Don't mind her, she doesnt' bite..." began Saturn.

"Hard." Finished Keisei, grinning hugely. After viewing the looks on the strange peoples' faces, she burst out laughing, remarking how funny it was and how she loved doing that -you know, the usual.

Saturn tried really hard to contain it, she really did, but Keisei's laughter was so contagious, that soon all of them (with the exception of Piccolo) were laughing also.

After the laughter had died down mostly, Gohan got an idea, "Hey! Why don't you guys come an' stay with us until you can figure out how to get back home? It's just me an' my mom, my dad's er-out of town, and we got PLENTY of room! An' we have a friend, Bulma, who's real smart -her dad owns the Capsule Corp company- and she can help you guys out! Whaddaya say?"

Both girls blinked. Keisei, of course, who was naturally modest, protested, "Well, we wouldn't want to be any trouble! We could just..."

But Gohan interrupted, "No prob.! An' I KNOW my mom won't mind! 'Common, we'll take you!"

"How?" Asked Saturn, realizing she hadn't spotted ANY sort of vehicle anywhere.

"Simple. Fly!" Replied Gohan, like it was the most normal thing in the world. The rest of the Z-Senshi sweatdropped. Well, there went their cover -like they had any, anyways, with a green guy, a triclops, and a floating, talking, china-doll!

"You can fly?" Asked Saturn, amazed.

"SUGOI!!!" Exclaimed Keisei and Saturn excitedly. Gohan grinned, while the others breathed a sight of relief.

"Let's go!" Said Gohan, picking up Saturn, while Tien picked up Keisei.

"Is that thing real?" Asked Keisei on the way.

"Chout-zu or my eye?" Was Tien's completely serious response.

Keisei couldn't stop laughing the entire time.

Okays, whad'ja think??? PLEASE R+R, (aka Read and Review!)peoples!!! Dankus!!!
