A New World 2
A Test Of Abilities
By Gavinna
*Dream*
"Lupus chan!" Someone was calling me. There he stood
in the mists. Open arms and whispering his love to me. I ran to
him. He embraced me and I melted instantly
in his arms. I leaned on his chest and his hands moved down to
tightly hold my waist. "Aishiteru!" I whispered and his
lips kissed my forehead. "Aishiteru Lupus-chan!" he
lifted my chin gently. He leaned over to kiss me gently.....*
"Wake up call little girl!!!!" I felt the blanket leave and I shuddered and curled up instinctively. Just then something tightly grasped my neck and I gripped at the strong hand "Awk! Vegita sama! I wanna sleep! Or at least let me eat first! I wanna take a shower!" He walked out of my room with me still at his hand and passed a very startled Goten in his boxers. "hey what are you doing Vegita san? You might hurt her!" He only glared at Goten, "Mind your own business, brat."
I clutched his wrist tightly. He
made his way to the balcony and Goten followed close behind.
"Vegita!" Goku yelled, who was standing there with
Trunks. "Tousan! You said we were gonna train her, not kill
her!" Trunks took me from his father's grasp. I coughed and
rubbed my neck. "You didn't have to help me. I could have
handled it." I told him.
"Yeah right." He muttered.
"If I'm gonna get trained, I don't want anyone going easy on
me." I said, "If that's his way of getting me up then
fine." I caught Vegita smiling at me. Goku scratched his
head. "Are you sure you want Vegita training you?" he
asked.
"Hai." I answered simply. He sighed, "Alright
Piccolo and Gohan are waiting for us."
"Trunks kun. Put me down please." I told him, but
before I could say anything else. They all blasted of with me in
Trunks' arms. He was holding on to me so tightly.
"Trunks kun! I'm gonna die from lack of oxygen!" I
cringed.
"I'm not letting go of you!" he yelled "Not
after what you did last time!"
"What did she do?" Goku looked over and asked.
"I did this!" I screamed, quickly powering up and
jumped from his arms again. I held to my nightgown so it wouldn't
flip up. "Ahhh!" I heard Trunks scream and catch me as
I giggled hysterically, he only held me tighter. Vegita smirked
as Goku laughed.
"I told you not to do that!" Trunks freaked out,
"You could have been killed!"
"I smiled sweetly and said "You wouldn't let me
die."
"The girl is a real risk taker!" Goku smiled giving a
peace sign.
"You are seriously hurting me Trunks. I promise I won't do
it again."
"Yeah right" he frowned.
"Come on! Do you want me to get embraced to death? I'm
loosing air!"
"No!"
I had an idea at this point.
"So"
I dropped my head down and stopped breathing.
"Good one Lupus chan" he said smirking, I didn't
respond. "Lupus chan?" he asked and the other two
stopped flying. I kept silent to be as lifeless as possible.
"Uh oh! Lupus chan! Wake up! Lupus chan!" He began to
shake me.
""
"What did you do Trunks?" Goku asked frantically.
"Lupus chan! Oh please don't be hurt!"
"You are the one who is going to be hurt!" My eyes shot
open and I slapped his face. "I really doubt that is any way
to handle a lady!" I scolded him, Goku sighed with relief.
"Well with that boldness I really wouldn't say you are much
of a lady at all." He said. I went red with anger and
yelled, "Of course I am a lady! You baka!"
"Prove it!"
"What do you want me to do?! Tear off my night gown and show
you?!" (As much as the idea did appeal to me.)
"Uh" he went speechless
and red.
"Goku san?" I looked over to him.
"Hai Lupus san?"
"I can't be trained right now."
"Nani?" Vegita asked. "Stupid girl. There's
nothing wrong. Why can't you be trained?"
"You do realize what I am wearing? And it isn't that short
either."
"I'm sure Chichi will let you borrow something." Goku
smiled.
"Arigato."
We arrived at the son house where Piccolo and Gohan stood. Chichi Walked out and was startled to see me in my nightgown. "Chichi? Can Lupus-chan borrow some clothes?" Goku asked his wife like a little child. He was quite excited to soon train a new student.
"Well you are a little
smaller than mebut we can find something" She
pulled me inside and gave me one of Goten's old T-shirts from
when he was a kid and a pair of denim pants that were Gohan's but
She let me cut them to make them shorts. That way my movement
would not be restricted. "Be careful" she warned me and
I gave a nod. Coming outside piccolo and Gohan stopped sparring.
"Ok first off you need to know how to fly." Goku said.
"No" the Namek spoke, "She needs to learn how to
manipulate ki first."
"Hmph! They know nothing of your powers!" Vegita
well..."hmph"ed They turned to look at him. I sat down
next to him and trunks moved to the seat next to me. "Lupus'
power comes from within as well but she can gather elements from
nature." He explained.
"Like the spirit bomb?" Goku asked.
"Not really Baka," he said, "Show them."
I yawned, "Its too early in the morning!" I whined,
"Do we have to?"
He growled at me.
"Ok, ok I'm going." I got up and stood to face a tree a
few yards from me.
I lifted my hands in the air then
settled back down to turn to him, "What do you want me to
do?"
He rolled his eyes, "Fine...fire."
I concentrated taking a few seconds to gather the energies and
yelled out stretched my arms to the sky. "Vulcan
Flames!" The bright hellion colours stretched out above and
a bird dropped to the ground roasted. "Heh! Gomen!" I
apologized. "I get dibs on it!!!!" Goku rushed to catch
the falling body of roasted duck.
Vegita ignored him and spoke, "Ice."
I crossed my arms and focused on the tree. "Frozen
kiss!" I whispered and blew a kiss to the tree. Cold blue
fire-like ice breath rushed in a dance to the tree and rapidly
crystallized it.
"Air." he requested. I laughed, "I can't
fly."
"Do some other air attack!" he demanded.
"He, he...I don't think I can."
"How about earth?" Goku asked.
"I can heal people...I think that goes with the whole earth
thing." I said.
"Let's try it out!" Gohan said boldly, "Tousan,
break my arm."
"No!" Goku said.
"Fine Vegita-san. Break my arm." The short Sayjin
walked over and with a snap of his wrist and a loud crack I
cringed at Gohan's broken limb. Everyone couldn't believe Vegita
had just done that. "Gohan!" Piccolo was at his side in
a second. I came to Gohan and placed my hands on his back. A
sudden green flame burst from my fingertips and in moments he was
healed. Though I forgot about the consequences that would be the
after math of my deed. "Ah!" I screamed clutching my
arm. Trunks came to me "Lupus-chan! Are you alright?"
"I can't just really heal. I have to transfer the power to
me and mine to his. I can also be a leech and take energy... but
I don't like that."
Piccolo handed me a senzu. I thanked him.
"If you are wondering," I added on..."I'm a Witch.
I use natural energies to do things. I've never used it for
fighting though."
"Ok well. You need to learn how to ki blast and Fly. Then
fighting comes after." Goku said.
I quickly learned to fly very happily (I might add) that day. After they showed me a simple ki blast then more complicated ones. Gohan helped me out whenever I aimed the wrong way. Believe me! I have very very bad aim.
Seven hours had passed and now it was time for lunch. (Not that Lunch!). Chichi made is something to and I helped her cook as well as after I noticed how tired she looked. She thanked me and we cleaned dishes together.
It was our break now. Gohan and Piccolo sat by a tree talking. Vegita was leaned against a tree and Goku went inside his house. Trunks just sat silently across from me a few meters away. I decided meditating would be good I closed my eyes and concentrated on my third eye (it is not a literal third eye...he, he Tienshinhan). I had always thought it to be invisible, but then again everything unseen to my own eye in my reality was visible here. A white opal like sphere appeared on my forehead and began to spin. My chakras glowed white and then I concentrated into making them into roses and have them dance round me in patterns. I could feel the familiar kis gathering near me. I opened my eyes to see the roses and floated into the air. I wanted to try something. Everyone was looking at me. The roses paused and from them sprang a flurry of ribbons lashing out and wrapping round me as my clothes disappeared. The opal like eye duplicated and I passed into it my soul's core energy making it grow three times its size. The now palm sized opal rested against my chest and with a flash of light the secret spell I had woven fell perfectly into place. I hovered above the ground enveloped in a glow that died out quickly as my eyes opened.
I noticed that Krillin, #18, Marron, and Pan had arrived. Taking one look at my clothes a shrieked out with joy and threw my hands up. "Sugoi!!!! It worked!" I ran around dancing that I absentmindedly took the nearest person to me making a comical scene. A Namek and Sayjin dancing. I ran inside to look at myself in a full length mirror. I had just created myself a Sailor suit with gold ribbons. The skirt was lavender with pale blue tips. Twirling around I even noticed my tail was gold and a gold ribbon had been placed neatly in my hair. My hair was ice blue and my eyes had just become pale violet. Quickly in my excited state I walked back outside.
"Your ki has increased
rapidly" Vegita commented. "But do you think it is
absolutely necessary for you to fight in that getup? It looks
incredibly silly."
"I think it looks cool!" Bura chirped in. Pan, Marron,
Goten and Trunks gave their agreement as the Sayjin Prince simply
"Hmph"ed. Giving a playful curtsey to the others, then
I turned to the older men. "Only one way to find out
Sensei" I winked Vegita's way.
"You are not ready." He stated simply, nose upturned.
"...but if you really want." he grinned his evil grin,
the one that sent Goten running behind a tree, "Uh oh."
he cowered, "Smells like trouble."
"What trouble could lil ol me stir up?" I asked
innocently. Then cracked my knuckles looking at Vegita,
"Bring it on, boy."
"You asked for it!" He pride-fully narrowed his eyes
and folded his arms. And yes I am aware that
"pride-fully" isn't really a word...well it is now!
"WAIT!" Trunks spoke out suddenly "You can't do
this!" His arms came out to stop the both of us. I could
feel his blue eyes burning into mine, but my gaze kept locked at
his father's eyes. A mere smirk on my lips to show I had nothing
to fear. The animal in me was burning to escape, and I cold have
sworn that it would turn on Trunks, but I kept my goal on Vegita
and only Vegita.
The dark shadow in me that I so
often harbored and yet did not deny began to cloak my appearance.
I glowed slightly and in a sudden burst of energy my ki flared a
lavender causing Trunks to shield his eyes. "Your are not
ready!" he pleaded with me. "What if I'm not,
Trunks-kun?" I raised my brow. "What does it matter. I
want this... I need this. I need to know *how* i will do this
battle, how it will end, how it will begin."
"For what? Closure on how weak you are?"
"Shut up... you fool. I don't want closure. Closure is
nothing I ever want. Closure is an end. I don't want an end, but
another beginning. An adventure in my life. Its all a power trip
ya know. Battle, Trunks-kun. Not real... but a test...a test
of abilities."
"How can you want this?" he tried to shake me, then
turned to Vegita, "Tousan tell her!" Vegita just smiled
and Trunk's face seemed to go into some shock,
"Tousan..."
"Don't interfere Trunks. He knows how much I want this, and
how badly I need it." I grinned and turned back to my
opponent. "Weapons?"
Vegita gave a mere nod, "If you want."
"Lupus-san... this isn't right..." Goten came out from
behind the tree and put a hand on my shoulder. "I have to
agree on this one, girl." Pan added in.
Blind in rage for their refusal I
screamed my ki bursting out into all directions, "I want
this!" Goten was even thrown back. Trunks held to me
tightly. "Get off me!" I let out a low growl with a
glare. He only held tighter, "Tousan stop her!" Vegita
did nothing. Trunks raising his voice once more called out in
desperation. "TOUSAN!"
"Go easy on her Tousan." Bra commented.
"Bura I love ya as a friend but with all my heart...Shut
Up!" I growled.
"Don't worry Lupus-chan. I won't." Vegita said and
powered up. "Lesson number one Lupus. You have to hate me if
you even want a chance to live. I have to hear you scream out all
your rage at the name of the person you hate most. I want to hear
the disgust and fury in your voice."
"Baka!" Piccolo yelled and came after me. Vegita shot
him down with one blast. His twitching body laid on the ground
muttering. I simply silenced him stepping over his back as if he
were but a rock under my feet. "Lupus-chan are you
crazy?" Krillin asked.
I smirked his way. "I'm
not crazy... I'm insane." With that one word I lunged
at my opponent throwing my fist forward. He faded and appeared
behind me. "Stardust Saber!" I screamed and let a sword
with a gold blade and an ivory hilt appear in my hands. I turned
the blade towards me and thrust it under my arm behind where he
stood. He jumped back and roared at the slice of my sword against
his skin. "I let my guard down against you little
girl."
"I'm not a little girl anymore."
Vegita threw a punch and rapidly attacked. Hit after hit I was
thrown back and he finally leaped up. I took no notice of my
bloody lip and my bruised sides. He must have been 20 yards from
me when he screamed "Haaaaa!!" And sent a flurry of ki
blasts which I dodged. Flipping from side to side and rushed
backwards in the air. "Final Flash!" He finally yelled.
I smirked at his attack. This time everyone knew he and I were
serious about the battle. My hand glowed a scarlet red and up I
threw my attack that seemed to be a torch of fire that burned all
ways but towards me. "Vulcan Flames!" We flew opposite
sides avoiding the attack the other had let out. But slow as I
was He caught me in the jaw. Very devious of him. His fists came
together and slammed down against my shoulder knocking my whole
body down into the ground. The soil about me cracked to make a
large hole. "Oww my ass!" I yelled as Vegita rushed
right towards me, "Frozen Kiss!" I let my lips touch
his and instantly he was covered in a thick layer of ice which he
would have broken himself, although I took the initiative to
break it for him. I slammed my knee up hitting him strongly in
the gut several times. Breaking free he grabbed my leg and swung
me about threw me as if I were a mere shot put ball and sent a
massive ki blast into me. And for some reason all I thought of
was duck hunt. I had become a biting duck. (:P) I rolled to grab
my sword and deflected it. "Batter up!" I sent it
hurling back his way. He faded off.
"Kuso." I closed my eyes and tried desperately to detect him. There! Too late! I was about to turn when his leg slammed down on me. My back ached with the hard blow. He then punched at my chest multiple times and then gave one final blow to my belly knocking me back. Blood spattered from my lips as I coughed. "Oh pleasant" I thought. As if to tease I licked the blood of my lips deliciously. Bulma and her assistant Raion had just arrived to see Vegita beating the shit outta me, although Raion seemed not to notice what was going on. Him being so hurried to find a bathroom, he rushed inside. "Vegita!" she screamed out angrily. He yelled back with clear annoyance "Not now woman!" I noticed my blood seemed thicker, sweeter. A Sayjin's blood. I let it not bother me and jabbed at him with my sword. And missed he faded again. I jumped back instinctively but was messed up when I bumped into Vegita's chest. His arms came around me instantly to crush my bones in a shattering embrace. I screamed aloud and a tear trickled down my cheek for my newly broken bones. I took one hand and desperately stretched it to meet his face. "Vulcan Flames!" He backed away. My sword had disappeared by now and I would not take anymore energy to summon it again.
My right hand. The only good hand that I still had. I fired a blast at him but he quickly too it in and grabbed my wrist breaking it with a mere twitch of his hand. "Lupus-san!" Gohan full with worry rushed to me. I only yelled at him to get back and fired a blast at him. I rushed at Vegita kicking viciously. The short Sayjin threw his punches landing them all on my face, and gave a sudden uppercut to my back. I screamed as Trunks yelled "Stop, Tousan! Stop it already!" He was about to go Super Sayjin. "Stay out of this Trunks!" He seemed hurt at my refusal for his concern and help but I could only think of how badly Vegita kept his attack going. I vowed to myself that I would at least survive and get better enough to battle him once more before I left this realm.
Landing a single kick to his face I tool all my effort into bringing out my hands and whispered as the trees began to blow and I sent a violet glow to Vegita surrounding him. With all his confusion he tried to move forward but seemed suspended in a slow motion. "Psychic Manipulation." I whispered. The opals on me glowed as the purple and silverish glow seemed to wrap around the now more enraged and confused prince. Taking in more effort I started flicking my wrist up and down sending the Sayjin Prince hurling into the ground and back up, then back down again, again and again and again. He cringed with every hit that sent him hurling to the ground. I realized I had forgotten to paralyze him first thus he sent a ki blast my way. It hit. I collapsed to the ground sending him crashing furiously one last time. My tattered Sailor Suit disappeared.
"Lupus-chan!" Goku
yelled and I opened my eyes trying to focus them, he had just
come out of his house. In a second a bunch of people were at my
side. Goku and Goten offered to help me up. But I only smacked
their held out hands away. "You are all busted up and
broken!" Pan bit her lip. I refused all help. "I'm fine
really."
"But," Trunks protested. I punched his face glared at
him. I also screamed out at hurting my hand another time.
"Ow your head is hard Trunks!" Vegita thought this a
very funny comment. Ignoring all my pain I bowed to him and he
gave a nod in turn. "I'm impressed, you are a fast learner
when you want to be. Though I think you should go home and get
cleaned up now."
"Hai, Vegita-sama. Domo arigato gozai masu." I bowed
again. "You crazy bitch!" Trunks started yelling at me.
I shook my head clearly annoyed and loosing my patience.
"How could you do something that stupid. You know young lady
you should change that attitude!"
"Young lady?" I cocked an eyebrow. I sighed heavily
thinking "Trunks *yer-an-idiot*!" Then blasted off. I
even heard Vegita laughing because I had blasted off in the
middle of one of Trunks' sentences and the whack of Bulma's crow
bar hitting his solid head. Then Raion who had just come back out
wondering, what was going on and why Vegita had done this time to
piss his wife off.
Even though I was looking worse than shit and all in pain. I felt a greater sense of good pride and happiness that afternoon. I used up all my strength after in getting myself to fly home. I was nearly there when all of a sudden I felt a pain and my world blacked out before me.
