History of Star

Star's story

Gogitz looked down at the girl in his arms. A wisp of hair managed to escape from the plait. He wiped it out of her face, softly touching her skin. That was enough to wake her up. She sat up quickly, and gave him a confused stare."What's the matter?" Star looked even more confused by the tenderness in his voice. "Err... nothing, it's just..." "Sshh, don't worry" Gogitz pressed his lips on hers. His hands wondered around her back, remembering the previous night. She trembled when he softly touched her wings. He broke their kiss and nuzzled in her neck. Then suddenly he bit her. She immediately jumped up, nearly breaking his nose in the process. "Hey, watch it a bit" Gogitz said, as he rubbed his now sore nose. "What did you do that for? This time Star gave him a hateful look. She rubbed over the wound caused by his bite, and looked at the bit of blood on her fingers. "Come here" Gogitz said, as he licked the blood from her fingers. Then he moved closer, and continued to lick the wound in her neck. Star let out a soft and unwilling moan. "You didn't answer, why did you bite me?" she said, this time soft and tenderly. "It's a Saiya-jin thing." "Oh, and that is supposed to explain everything?" Star pulled away, and looked him in the face. *Ow... how can I refuse her anything when she looks like that.* "Like I said, it's a Saiya-jin thing. We bite the person we bonded with, and if anyone ever tries to come between that bond, we kill him or her." Star looked away, and Gogitz noticed that she was breathing harder. "What is it?" Gogitz sounded worried "What it is? What it is? You don't know a single thing about me, and you decide to bond with me. Nice that you tell me of that. And what do you think? I'm a killer, I don't care for anybody, and I definitely do not love!" She almost spit out the last few words. "Oh, and what you showed last night wasn't love?" "Oh, shut up!" But all Gogitz did was raise an eyebrow and continue talking: "No, I wont. There's something you don't understand! When a Saiya-jin mates, it's forever. We can not live without our mate. If one dies, the other kills him or herself! I want you as my mate, and I don't care what other people will say. You bare my mark; you're my mate now. So there!" Now it was Star's turn to raise an eyebrow. "So there? Gee Gogitz, I didn't know the good guys could be so uncaring... but anyway, your brains are apparently not working. Because no one with a properly working brain would mate with a girl like me. Like I said, you don't know a single thing about me, I'm a murderer and also unattractive." And with that Star looked away. "Come on Star. Okay, you might be a killer, but that your unattractive is not true. You very handsome... Hell handsome is an understatement. You simple gorgeous! And that I don't know anything about you can be solved very simply; just tell me!" Star sighed. "You have no idea what you're asking." "Maybe not, but I would like to know a few things about you, about your past." Star looked at him with a weird look on her face. *What the... she seems to be afraid, scared of her past? Kami, something terrible must have happened. It must have...* Star sighed once more "Fine if you want to know so badly, but I don't need or want you pity..." She gave him a glare and started to talk.

"I was in the mall. I can't remember what I was doing, but it can hardly be of any importance. I decided to go home, and once outside, I walked to my Hovercycle (Floating/Hovering bicycle - just like those cars, only a bicycle). I should have seen it coming, but I was too preoccupied with teenage-stuff. When I had to stop for the traffic lights a big sort of camper truck thing stopped next to me, and somebody pulled me of my cycle. I kicked and screamed, but it didn't help. I must have hit someone; cause I heard cursing and then something hard hit me on the head. The next thing is everything turning black."

"They kidnapped you?" "Shut up, do you want to hear this or not?!" "I want to hear it, I was just…" "…being annoying?" "No, being interested." Gogitz stroke with one hand over Star's cheek. Star sighted again "If you wanna hear it, don't interrupt me got it?!" "Okay, okay, come here." Gogitz pulled Star close to him and wrapped his arms around her. She laid her head on his shoulder and continued.

"When I woke up, I heard some weird sounds. I thought that it would be smarter to pretend that I was still out. I peeked through one eye, and saw a curtain around the bed I was lying in. I sat up, and a voice shouted; Go get the Prof., she's awake! Then the curtain opened and a group of boys and girls of my age stood there, watching me. Just when I wanted to ask one of my many questions, this absentminded looking guy in a lab-coat walked towards the bed. He tolled them to continue and just looked at me. He had one weird gaze, he just stood there. After about half-an-hour he said that I should follow him. What choice did I have? None, so I just did what he said. He took me to this training area, where a group of teenagers was fighting. They fired al sorts of Ki-attacks, punches and kicks at each other. He tolled me that I would join them soon, and that I would be even better. At that time, it seemed unreal to me. My father used took me to martial arts matches, and I always admired the fighters for their strength and ability to use their Ki to fight. And now, this weird man tolled me that I would be able to do that? I couldn't believe him. But my disbelieve wouldn't last long. He started to give me shots. They altered my DNA; I changed. It didn't go fast, but I definitely changed. First me hair became more and more blond, some wisps even looked like gold. My eyes turned to this bright blue. Finally my wings started to grow. But not only my appearance changed, I got stronger, and addicted to the drug he used for the transformation.. I was trained to use Ki, and several martial arts. When we did what he demanded from us, we got our daily doses of that drug.

Soon after my change was complete, I was the strongest there. Nobody could beat me, the Professor proclaimed that I was the 'leader' of the group. They all agreed with that simple because they were scared of me. They never though to ask me what I thought about it, I just had to do what they said. I never had a choice about what he tolled me to do. He just used me. But he paid for that; oh how he paid for that! I made him pay, and he begged for mercy. He begged for his life. Not that it helped him. No, he hurt me too much, and he had to pay. When he tolled us what our goal would be, it was obvious that we wouldn't survive this mission. It was a suicide-mission. We had to kill some leader, but we would never be able to leave. The guards would have killed us. After he explained the mission to us, I followed him back to his lab and I made it clear that I would not go. He threatened to cut my supply of the drug if I didn't go, but after I swung him around for a few times, he was begging me to stop. Ha! I love it when they beg for mercy, of course I didn't stop, I simple had to killed him, and then I would free. I planned to blow him up with a small blast, but he managed to get out of the way. My blast hit one of the morf-tanks. It blew up, and set the lab on fire. I didn't have much time to get out of there.

Later, I noticed just how badly we needed that drug. The withdrawal symptoms aren't very pleasant. It wont be an understatement to say that I went crazy. For weeks all I could do was fly around, blowing stuff up and kill people. But that wasn't as satisfying as the drug. All I could think of was getting a shot, but since I blew up the lab there was no more. After a few weeks I could think clearer and I knew I had to do something. Then I heard of the Dragonballs. I decided that they could give me back what he had taken from me. That's what I want to wish for, my old body back. No more wings, and no more trouble!"

"So happy now?!" Star looked at Gogitz, who was in deep thought. "Huh? Uh... yeah, now I know. But I was thinking, couldn't you just make that professor change you back? And what happened to your fighting team?" Star turned her head, and gave him a kiss. "That was impossible. When I had him cornered, I asked him that, but he said that the change was forever. Then the lab blew up and since the training grounds where next to that, my teammates must have died in the explosion. My team went there to train after the meeting. Maybe some managed to survive, but I never heard from any again." She shrugged and snuggled closer to Gogitz, and lying together like that they fell asleep.
