Child of the Moon

by M1W1M

A biography fic of my character and alias Torasuki! AU : includes most of the original DBZ cast. Pairings in the future, to be announced. Another unabashed Mary Sue.

1. Prologue

PRE FIC BLABBING! (please read!): This is my newest idea, a biography of my character
Torasuki! In advance I'd like to warn you so that I don't have to do this again later!! The
characters from DBZ are Akira's and Tora and the storyline are mine! (you know the deal
don't take them blah blah) Now I rated this PG13 because there may be some swearing and
explosives, and later on, maybe some lemon or lemon references! ALSO: I just have to say this,
I may or may not have Trunks and Tora get together! I know ppl hate it when authors put Trunks
w/their character (I know I hate it in most cases! ^_^' ), but just put your name in Tora's place
while you read! It might help ya! This is what some might call a "Mary Sue", but I've been told it's one
of the better ones! ^_^' ONE MORE THING: In this fic, the timeline is a bit offset! Bra
and Tora are 14 and entering high school, and Trunks and Goten are seniors in High School.
(Pan is about 8) THATS It! I swear!! Enjoy!

Prologue
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She spat dust out of her mouth and felt the hot flow of blood as she shaded her eyes to the sky. The mass of hair flew....
yes FLEW off into the horizon. Her eyes welled up with tears as she felt the pain arrive. Shooting pain overcame the numbness in her groin. "Why....." the words repeated in her head serveral times as she tried to sit up.
More pain.
What had caused this... what had happened?
She only knew she needed help, and the thing that had just been... in her, was not human.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Woman impregnated by tailed beast" he read.
"What?.. Oh god..." she groaned. Kira layed back and sighed as her father raised a brow.
"Who did you tell..." he said in a gruff voice.
Kira glared "I HAD to see a doctor... he asked what had done such damage... and I told him. You KNOW those tabloid people are EVERYWHERE dad.... "
He snorted and lifted an eyebrow. "Well why not get rid of the evidence?"
Kira sat up and pointed. "DAD! If I could leave the room, I would... but I can't, so GET OUT!" she screamed in final frustration.
He began to do as she ordered, because he knew his wife would be in to yell just as much. He turned and lifted his pipe out of his mouth. "You know this baby is nothing more than a half beast. It's not worth the time Kira!"
"ANIMAL! Well it's MINE! my CHILD, and I will raise it as my own! And if it's born with fur and a tail, So BE IT!.. It will still be my child, and I'll raise it under my standards.." She screamed, her mother rushing into the room untying her apron. "Herman, get OUT" she glared with the ferocity of her daughter.
Herman sneered and walked off, carrying the tabloid with him.
"Dinner will be ready soon dear.. just rest.." her mother said with a knowing smile. She quietly stepped out of the room and closed the door softly.
Kira fell back into her bed as her eyes welled up. What ever "animal" was growing inside of her would probably never understand the family she grew up in. She hoped it wouldn't shy away from the yelling they did on a usual basis.
~~~~~~~~~~~
" WOMAN!! You told me you'd have food ready!!!!!!!!" Vegeta screamed at the top of his lungs.
Bulma stomped into the room wondering why she ever invited him to stay at Capsule corp. "WILL YOU SHUT UP! It's cooking your HIGHNESS!!" she put her hands on her hips and watched his eyes flare up with anger as he assesed her. She cut him off once again. "Why don't you take the time to talk to your SON, he's still got his tail you know"
Vegeta nearly flared up with ki this time. "And Pink hair is it? No way woman... a tainted heir is the last thing I need to bother with." he said turning his back on her and waiting for the food.
"It's lavender... "Bulma scoffed and wheeled on her heel "I'll taint something alright..."
Vegeta smirked for a second and drummed his fingers on his arm. What an interesting race. He wondered if all humans could get the same decibal level as her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"We're going to New Vegeta..." he said as Chi Chi pulled at him. "I need to leave now Chi Chi!!"
"Goku have you heard a WORD I've said... there was a SAIYAN on this planet!!" she yelled and opened her mouth, but he calmly interrupted her.
"I know..that's why we're going. They are leaving too. Don't worry."
"GOKU!!!" she grabbed his ear sharply and dragged him across the room to her desk, slamming her hand on the top of a magazine. "READ IT!"
He looked down, and took awhile to read the headline. "Ok.. more of that fake stuff. I thought you hated it Chi Chi? Didn't you beat them up last time they came here?" He looked utterly clueless.
Chi Chi snorted. "YES! But you don't get the POINT! It says she was impregnated. If It is true, there will be another demi saiyan... like Gohan!" she waited for him to calcculate.
"It's just a lie thought right? I don't understand... I need to go Chi Chi.. King kai..."
"Look, just take me to the mountains...I'll find the place she's supposedly staying, and talk with her. If she's having a saiyan child. She's going ot need all the help she can get." Chi Chi walked to the door dragging him by the hand. "Now lets go."
Goku shook his head. "I'll search for ki. If it's saiyan, it has ki." he said and took off as she hopped into his arms.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vegeta finished his fourth plate and stood.
"Your welcome... where are you going now?" Bulma said, her bright blue eyes dark under lowered brows.
"No business of yours. I wont kill anything on this planet. Kakarott and I are joining some others on a trip." he said and slammed the door behind him. That was more than enough information for her to care about.
Bulma sighed and frowned, standing up and walking towards her lab. She had a few tricks up her sleeve.
Her trip was delayed on the way by Trunks' howl.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hello dear.... you have visitors.."
Kira sat up slowly and squinted her eyes open. "What? Mom.. I told you not to let them in! They'll just take pictures and start rumors!" She covered her face for a second and sat up.
Her mother was starting towards the door. "Oh no no dear... they're here to help. They dont have much time, But you can trust them." she smiled and opened the door, leaving as the guests entered.
As Kira smoothed her light brown hair out two people stepped in. One had wild black hair and she took in a breath. The woman stepped in front of him and smiled, bowing repectfully. "Hello, my name is Chi Chi, and this is my husband, Goku..."
Kira nodded slowly, still watching the spiky haired one warily. He reminded her too much of.... "I'm Kira..." she said.
Chi Chi nodded and smiled "I need to explain something to you alright? Just listen, and believe every word I say, because I'm not going to lie to you."
She nodded in response.
"My husband here, is named Goku. He is from a different planet called Vegetasei.........."
Kira's eyes remained wide throughout the whole story Chi Chi told. She eyed Goku as he danced around impatiently behind her, backing down at a glare from her.
After awhile she realized that Chi Chi was done. "So.. it'll have a tail... and .. why doesn't your husband have his?" Kira inquired after some thought.
Chi Chi knew a huge sweatdrop could be seen. Just at the PERFECT time, Goku chose to proclaim his plan
"Chi Chi! They're leaving now! I need to go!" he said and saluted Kira, giving her a big grin. "That kid's got ki!! Listen to Chi Chi, she'll help you!!" he said as he bolted, literally, out the door.
Chi Chi turned with a nervous look. *ahem* "He's uhm... off to... save some planet.." she said shaking her head. Why lie?
Kira swallowed hard. "What is ki?"
Chi Chi's eyebrows furrowed as she sighed again, walking to sit with Kira. It would be a long day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You are SURE you're comfortable!" she asked.
Kira nodded.. her wide eyed look calming now. She was finally realising all of this was true. Chi Chi had brought her to her friend Bulma, who was also the mother of a demi-Saiyan. To Kira's surprize, Bulma had a room set up, and a second nursury ready.
"Like I said before, you don't have to worry. The robots clean everything, and the only one liable to scare you isn't on the planet." She smiled. Kira smiled back, as the president of Capsule Corporation was much nicer and prettier than she'd ever imagined.
It turns out some of those tabloids on her had been correct. She was married to an alien.... sort of.
"Would you like to see Trunks?" she asked, bringing Kira back from her thoughts.
"Yes.." she followed Bulma out of the room and into the nursury she had set up.
Kira expected a furry child with long nails and wild hair. Instead she saw the most serene picture of a child she'd ever seen.
He was curled up on top of his sheets, his brown tail, the only sign of his alien lineage, was curled around him as innocently as a kitten's.
Bulma reached in to lift her child, and he woke with a start. Kira lit up as he opened his bright blue eyes, and they seemed to light up the room on their own. The tuft of lavender hair on his head topped off the cutest child she'd ever seen in her life.
Bulma rolled her eyes as he took in a breath. "Plug your ears..."
Kira did so as he ripped into a glass breaking scream.
"Saiyans eat twice as much as us. When they get older, they can eat equal to their own body weight in one sitting.." she sighed and smiled, bobbing Trunks around as a robot wheeled in a huge bottle. "You should see his father.."
Kira unplugged her ears and placed a hand over her stomach. Whatever was growing inside her was going to change her life... but the sight of Trunks gave her a better idea of how great it could be.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Over the next few weeks, Bulma and Kira got along fine. Kira was blown away by Bulma's knowledge of.. everything, and she was basically taught a course in Saiyans.
She learned what she was getting into as soon as she read the first page. Warrior race.
Kira was almost extatic to hear that Bulma was pregnant again. Her second child was due about 3 months after Kira's child.
Bulma went on about how happy Vegeta would be about so many demi Saiyans inhabiting the place, but how he'd cover it up with his smug attitude.
Kira listened to all of her stories of him, how he was the Prince of the Saiyans (fitting for someone of her position now that she thought about it), and how he came to this planet ready to blow it up.
Chi Chi told her share of stories, and Goku was the planet's savior.
Her days were filled with excitement, as their children grew quicker than any human child could, and Kira was introduced to everyone who was on the planet at the time, and told stories of all who werent.
Nights were hard for her. She would often cry herself to sleep, thinking of the pictures Bulma and Chi Chi kept. Goku was a loving man, barely around, but there for his wife. Vegeta's smug attitude was easy to see past, even in the pictures he often glanced at the one who he loved.
Kira needed someone.
She needed someone masculine, someone to protect her. She was once the most independent, tomboyish woman anyone had ever seen, but her instincts kept her yearning for a boyfriend, a husband.... a mate.
After a few days she'd shrug it off, call it hormones, and sit down for a five course meal with her newest friends.
She swore to get through it without the help of any man.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"WHY does she have to stay HERE!?? "
"It ISNT your house Vegeta! now go train or eat or whatever you do with your holy time. Just get OUt of my face!!!"
Kira grinned. She felt a little bit more at home, even if she was as big as a house, and petrified of the short spiky haired alien.
If one was scowling, the other had a proud smirk on their face. Kira knew they were made for each other.
Bulma assured her that she was more than welcome, but to be prepared for minor trembles in the earth while Vegeta trained.
Chi Chi made frequent stops to glare at Vegeta and roll her eyes as her own husband sparred with him.
Kira worked on drawing up plans for a cabin nearby. She really didnt want to impose, but knew she couldn't leave the safe haven she'd been invited into.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was huge.....
If it wasn't the power of the Saiyan race, it was the initiative of the entire group that surprized her.
She sat with Bulma and Chi Chi, and watched as her 2 floor "cabin" went up in less than 2 days.
Vegeta and Goku took it as a training opportunity, and even though Chi Chi rarely let him outside, Kira often found herself talking to Gohan as Bulma instructed the rest from her seat. He was a very smart young man to say the least, (and was overly glad that his mother had a second son to keep her mind on.)
The days flew by.. a dream come true as Kira's child grew inside her. She helped paint, furnish, and garden the home that Bulma's workers and friends had graciously payed for.
Kira's parents had given Bulma a large sum of money, but Bulma firmly denied it; she had money to burn. They all went out and spent the money on a double baby shower.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Kira's eyes filled with tears. She'd been laughing all evening and this just set it off.
"They've got a hole in the back! " she'd said sadly, but Bulma lifted a finger.
"Your child will have a tail hun..." she said with a grin.
Kira cracked up with the group and placed a hand over her growing stomach. She loved the way these people lived. Yes, they worked under the constant anxiety, but the gift of life seemed to flow through all of them, human or not.
".... and then Vegeta says "Oh well. I could hammer his nail any day."" Bulma finished the story with a red face,and Kira came back from her thoughts. Bulma knew if her husband were there he'd be ringing her neck.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She looked up to make sure no one was coming. Opening her ears to their full potential to keep watch as she read. She knew she wasn't supposed to be in here.
The air was still and no noise entered except the sound of the birds outside the opened window.
She rested her tail on the edge of the bed and flipped the page, still finding it odd how she'd written this in the third person.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pain. Pain pain pain, and more pain.
WHy had she agreed to this?
" MAKE IT GO AWAY!!!!!!!" Kira screamed as the sweat poured from her face, which was contorted into a crinkled mass.
Bulma and Chi Chi flanked her, and the males and Kira's parents chose to stay outside the soundproof birthing room.
Pain shot through her entire lower half as followed the instructions of the doctor. This child wanted out, and wasn't waiting for her aid.
She panted, trying desperately to understand and follow through with the directions the doctor ws giving her.
"Kira keep your eyes open, look at me... Kira... KIRA!"
All went black.. and the pain was dulled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Muffled voices and a light fog entered her senses.
She heard her name a few times, and fought to open her eyes.
She saw more blurred figures standing over her. They said her name and she slowly regained conciousness.
"Thank KAMI!! Kira you're ok! It's been days!"
"don't tell her that she'll pass out again!"
Kira watches in a daze as Chi Chi and Bulma exchanged evil glances. "Where is my child?" she said in a raspy voice. Kira wanted to see the reason behind her 3 day sleep.
Bulma's eyes lit up. "Well JEEZE! Show her!! Bring her in!" she said yelling to the med techs.. Kira looked up.
"It's... it's a girl?" she asked, squinting as she focused on the small bed being wheeled in.
Bulma nodded and smiled as she stepped back. The med tech lifted the tiny tailed baby and placed her in Kira's arms.
From that second, Kira was in love. Complete and utter love. Her child was gorgeous, and didn't utter a sound as her beautifle blue eyes opened to look up at her mother. She nearly gasped as a small furry tail coiled around her wrist with a little more strength than she may have expected. Kira couldn't utter a sound, and the others took the silence as well. A small tuft of brown hair sat upon her head, and the blue of her eyes was the dark blue that every newborn was graced with. Kira thanked the lord she at least had normal hair and eyes. "What will you name her?" Gohan broke in, and Kira realised he'd been peering over the bed just before Chi Chi yanked him back. Kira smiled and gazed down at her daughter, knowing the name she'd chosen weeks before would fit. "Torasuki."
