Alternate Cell Game
Chapter 3 - Prelude to Cell Game, Part II
By: Emerald Star
Robin was also grinning madly at Krillen, and only then did he realize the trap he and all other males feared. He had accepted the invitation to accompany a 'girl' shopping, and not only any girl, but a late 'teenage' girl. Just were had his mind gone in those last few moments? Oh yea, they it had been checking out Emerald's neon green two piece shirt and pants suit that smarted the eyes with a weighted black under shirt and neon green short open sleeveless vest with gold stylization circling and twinning around the neon green pieces. (For a black and white, see my bio page.) Not to mention her cute butt...
Mentally, Krillen was hitting his head against a wall, repeating the words, [Baka, baka, baka...] over and over.
Krillen's 'good angel conscious': [Serves you right for checking her out and not paying attention...]
Krillen: [Oh, shut up!]
Krillen was brought out of this internal punishment/conversation by the snapping of fingers from Robin's direction. "Hey, Emerald, almost forgot. How are you going to pay for those clothes?"
"Oh, I still have money here," Emerald stood up as she crammed her hands in her pockets and started to root around for her money. She eventually came up with a brown drawstring pouch and opened it onto the table, spilling the contents. Small thin disks of gold fell onto the table, spreading across the table with triangular silver flat coins.
"Uh... Emerald-san, those aren't current currency anymore..."
"What?! No way! When did they change the money system?!"
*Sweat drops* "500 years ago it went from coinage to paper and then in the last half century it went from paper to plastic."
"Plastic? What's plastic?"
"Uh... Never mind. We'll just put it all on my account."
"OK! Well, shall we get going?" Emerald sweeps the coins back into the bag and drew it closed, stashing it back into her pocket.
*---*---*---*---*---*---*---*---*---*---
Krillen walked slowly around, looking down at his shoes to see where he was going. The reason for this was that he was loaded down with boxes that the two girls he was chaperoning had bought.
"You know, Emerald, you may have a chest protector, but I need one for the game. Where do you think I'll find one?"
Krillen's ears perked up. "Emerald doesn't have a chest protector!"
Robin looks behind her at the pile of box's with legs. "Yes, she does. What do you think that vest of hers is for? Just style? It's a chest protector."
"No way! The material's to flimsy for that!"
"Have you even touched her clothes? They're as hard as steel, Krillen! Highly inflexible! They just look flimsy cause their covered over with a neon-green fur of some kind. Notice the gold stylization? That's just where there isn't any fur."
Emerald glanced over at Robin. "Getting back on subject, I thought that Sailor outfit you wore had a chest protector built into it. So why are you asking where to find one?"
Robin blushed. "Hehe, forgot about that. I don't want to wear the fuku to the game. The mini-skirt would make me feel so... embarrassed."
"So why don't you henshi before the fight and just change out of the skirt and put on some green long pants?"
Robin hesitated for a moment before smiling. "You know, I think that would work. I'd have to have someone undue the back bow to detach the skirt. But I don't have the right colored pants. Let's go shopping for a pair!"
Krillen groaned.
*---*---*---*---*---*---*---*---*---
It was two hours later and the two girls had finally taken pity on Krillen and had agreed it was getting to late for shopping. After stopping off at Robin's house to unload the purchases in her room, they had gone out to Applebee's for dinner, Robin's treat.
They had ordered and were waiting for the food to come. In the meantime an interesting conversation had been hit upon...
"Where DO you get all of your money?!" Krillen asked, exasperatedly.
"SHHHHH!! Do you WANT to get mugged, cu-ball?" Robin said in a low whisper, looking nervously about her.
"I resent that!"
"No, you resemble that!"
"Do not!
"Do to!"
"Do NOT!"
"Do TO!"
"Do Not, do Not, do Not!"
"Do To, do To, do To!"
"Would you two stop acting like a pair of spoiled children?!" Emerald cried out standing up, making every one in the establishment stare at her. Embarrassed, she sat back down.
"Do not," Krillen whispered. Robin just rolled her eyes.
"Alright, Krillen, ask your first question before dinner gets here."
"Ok," Krillen takes a sip from his Pepsi. "What's your real name? I mean, I thought all Saiya-jin's were named after food or something."
"Well, uh," Emerald looked away with a slight blush to her cheeks. "It's Dim Sama."
"Oh, I see why you wanted to be named Emerald Star then. Dim Sama isn't very flattering, is it?"
"Actually, Emerald Star is the name of the planet I was born on. When Robin here found me in my space pod, the pod was repeating 'Hoshi Emerarudo' over and over because it had a short circuit. She figured it was my name and since it sounded Japanese she translated it to English. Oh, and call me Emerald Star, it's a lot less embarrassing."
"Ok." Krillen took another sip of his Pepsi. "You said you were sent off when you were ten. If so, how come your still wearing those clothes? Do they stretch or something?"
Robin laughed and Emerald gave her a dirty look. Sighing, Emerald looked back at Krillen. "No, the material doesn't stretch. When I was ten I had my last growth spurt just before I was sent off."
"You mean you haven't had a grown since you were ten? Just how old are you?"
Robin looked dirtily at Krillen. "Krillen, do you WANT to live? Cause if so, don't EVER ask that question when your on a date."
Emerald Star put a hand on Emerald's shoulder. "I'm not sure, Krillen. I'm some where between sixteen and eighteen biologically. I lost track somewhere in the negative dimension of the Room of Spirit and Time."
"How come your so smart? I thought stupidity was inherent in the Saiya-jin race."
Emerald Star was chuckling. "Yes, stupidity is kind of inherent in the Saiya-jin race. However, my parents were two scientists, and I'm told often that I take after them. Though, I must say, I like being a warrior more than a scientist."
Dinner came and the conversation was stopped as the threesome chowed down. Robin had a chicken strip platter, Krillen a medium steak, and as for Emerald Star, well, *chuckle*, you don't really wanna know...
Ok, FINE, so maybe you DO wanna know! Well, she had 16 orders of cheese sticks, 30 orders of the chicken strip platter, 20 cheese burgers, 20 plain burgers, 30 hotdogs (And don't tell me they don't have hotdogs! EVERYONE HAS HOTDOGS!), 40 medium rare steaks, and 50 gallons of ice water. Feeling better now? GOOD!
Oh, I forgot, there's always desert! They all had and oreo cookie shake, though Emerald Star wanted twenty of them, Robin pointed to the slightly traumatized cooks and whispered "No!" real loudly (at least Saiya-jin wise) in Emerald Star's ear. Emerald frowned but agreed.
Well, after Robin paid for the dinner, and was asked never to bring Emerald there again, the three were walking back to Robin's house.
"So," Krillen asked, "how did you become a Super Saiya-jin, Emerald?"
"Hmm?" Emerald looked up from the three scoop ice cream cone she had had Robin get for her at an ice cream stand they hand passed. "Oh ya, Gohan said something about that to. What's a Super Saiya-jin?"
Krillen shot her a glance. "A Super Saiya-jin is when a person with Saiya-jin blood kind of transforms from their natural state, you know, black hair and black eyes, into a different state, blond hair and teal blue eyes with a massive ki increase. In order to do this, the Saiya-jin in question usually has to experience tremendous rage."
"Hmm, and you think since I have blonde hair and teal blue eyes that I'm a Super Saiya-jin? Sorry, but I was born this way."
"You were BORN as a Super Saiya-jin?!"
"Hmmm, guess so," Emerald said after she licked at her ice cream.
"So what happened to your parents?"
"Mom died in child birth, father was so upset 'cause they had a bond and all that he went insane and had to be restrained. I was basically raised by the inhabitants of Hoshi Emerarudo. Anyway, their dead by now, so it doesn't really matter."
Tight, awkward silence till they get to Robin's house.
"Well," Robin said, "I guess you guys can camp out back. There's some hammocks in the way back of the yard. Have fun!"
Robin skipped into the house and left the two people to their own devices.
*---*---*---*---*---*---*---*---*---
Yea! Finished this one, and the next will be out on Wednesday! Oh, and important note! Anyone that actually WANTS to find out what's gonna happen next, when I upload the fourth chapter, I'm moving the story over to the Dragon Ball Z section, due to the fact that this story only has one actual 'Sailor Scout' and that person is an original character of my own creation. Which basically means you don't even need to know the Sailor Moon story in depth. So, see ya in the Dragon Ball Z section, people!
