…Of Revelation
"We all have our own risks to take
But mine may be the most dangerous of all."
Tamashii sighed to herself. This would be harder than she had thought. Vegeta was sure to try and figure out who she really was, and if he figured that out, she could very well be killed. He wasn't strong enough to kill her, but he could get stronger, and it would be his right to execute her. She had committed treason, or was the result of treason, at least: her Saiya-jin father had left the planet of Vegeta-sie and mated with her mother, a Samura-jin. The Samura-jins were considered Vegeta-sie's enemies because of a several century-long enmity between the two planets. She was the result of this mating, so Vegeta had every right to kill her simply because she bore the blood of the Samura-jins. She could do nothing to stop him unless she could prove that her father had left the planet, as he had, because he had been "gifted" with Future Sight, as had a very few Saiya-jins in the past. He had Seen the destruction of Vegeta-sie and had warned the king, but he had paid the man no heed. He had also forbidden Saiya-jin women from mating with him. He had left the planet, but his ship had malfunctioned and he had landed on Samura-sie. Because the people of the planet were passive and forgiving, they had not killed him, and had even allowed him to mate among them. He had done so merely to keep the Saiya-jin race at least partially alive. The only gifts she had from her parents were magic, ki, and her name-Takara. She was startled out of her thoughts as her ki sensors, still locked onto Goku's ki signature, warned her that she was at the sight at which he was to land. She descended, and the others followed.
"One and a half hours. You may as well make yourselves as comfortable as you can." She thought for a moment. "Gohan, I need you over here for a moment."
The boy scurried over.
"Someone's coming, someone other than you father. I need to figure out who it is, and I need your help for that. You can see your father in the process, which is why I want you to be the one to help me; I thought you might be interested."
Gohan nodded vehemently. "Can you really let me see my father?!"
"Only for a moment before we move on, but yes. I can use magic; I'm very good at it in fact. Don't let anyone know. I got the gene from my mother. I need you on my left." The boy quickly shifted position. "You're going to feel slightly weak for a few hours after this because I need to use some of your power as well as mine to make this work." She began to mutter an incantation in a language no one but she understood. The ground under the tow of them seemed to shift, then disappear, and they were standing in space. She locked ki sensors first onto Goku; both nearly laughed aloud: he was sleeping.
She turned, Gohan's hand in hers, and found the ki that was the purpose for this. She locked on and…God, he wasn't even from this dimension. Shit. If she was still going to do this, she'd need to go back and gather more energy, not to mention the fact that no matter how much energy she gathered, it would still be dangerous for both her and the boy. She broke off he incantation and let go of the ki, and they "returned" to earth.
"Um…Did you find what you were looking for?"
"I found it, but I can't lock onto it. Go back to your friends and try not to get involved in any fights for another few hours. I have to do this part alone. Keep your friends from following me as long as you can, no matter what." She lifted off into the air, heading toward any deserted island she could find.
She landed on a small island with no people around for several miles in any direction. Perfect. She powered up until she was well into Super Saiya-jin two, then as quickly as she could, masked her now massive ki. They wouldn't be able to follow her. She began her incantation again, changing some of the words slightly for an inter-dimensional search. Again, the ground beneath her seemed to move, then disappear, as she contacted the young time-traveler's mind.
"Who are you?" she directed, sending him the thought.
"What…what the hell's going on!?" His voice was cracking.
"Speak through your mind, not your mouth. My name is Tamashii. Along with many other things, I'm a half-breed Saiya-jin. Who are you?"
"T-Trunks. Why the hell are you contacting me in my mind? How the hell are you contacting me in my mind!?"
"It's extremely difficult to explain. I needed to know who you were and if you bore any threat to earth."
"No, I don't. I'll be landing in a few minutes; I need to give Son Goku something."
"All right." She broke contact and fell to the ground, powering down and lowering her ki shield. She was unconscious within minutes.
