chapter 2: the arena
Bulma and Chichi both gasped as they stepped out of the hover bus. The palace was huge. It made Bulma's house look like a dirt shack. The whole thing was made out of black marble with red streaks instead of white.
"Good Kami! Royalty's really got it made," Chichi whispered as the pair got in the inspection line at the palace entrance with forty other students. Bulma could only nod. She was still overwhelmed by the grandeur of the palace.
Soon enough, two tall, well-built guards in royal armor stepped out of black marble doors and walked towards the group. They instructed the students to split up into two groups of male and female. Then the male group was led into the palace to test for high ki levels while Bulma, Chichi, and ten other girls were led into the main arena to start warming up.
If they thought the palace was nice, the arena was exquisite. Like the palace, it was made entirely of black marble; even the stadium seats were marble, but the marble was streaked with gold instead of red. "Do they even make marble like that?" Bulma gasped when she entered. Chichi could only shrugged her shoulders.
"Apparently so. Kami this is beautiful," the other girls started to spread out on the marble floor and started stretching. Bulma and Chichi casually walked over to a wall and leaned against it, waiting patiently for the fights to begin. Bulma reveled in the coolness of the marble on her bare shoulders and arms. Chichi was wearing a full body training suit while Bulma's suit covered her legs but left her arms and the tops of her shoulders bare. Both had trained before they came to school and didn't need the warm up like the others.
"First you will fight each other, then the five best will be chosen for testing as Palace Guards," the Saiya-jin who led them paused and pushed a button on his scouter. "The rest of you will be put with the regular elites. I have to say, most of your kis aren't that impressive so don't expect much," Bulma and Chichi smirked at each other. Out of all their Saiya-jin 'comrades', only they knew how to suppress their ki.
The guard, a young looking man with spiky hair, turned to walk away and give the girls a chance to warm up but something blue caught his eye. He turned to see two Saiya-jins leaning against a black marble wall. One looked normal but the other…was blue. How can a Saiya-jin be blue? He asked himself as he curiously approached the exotic female.
Bulma's eyes narrowed and snapped to the left as she felt the guard approach her. She had a feeling she would get unwanted attention from everyone who walked past. She saw the guard put a hand behind his head and smiled broadly.
"Um…I couldn't help but notice but your hair is blue!" the guard laughed slightly as Bulma and Chichi sweat dropped.
"Yes…thank you for pointing out the obvious," Bulma muttered through clenched teeth. Chichi glared at the guard for about a millisecond then noticed how hot he was and smiled at him.
"Yep, Bulma's the freak of the circus," Chichi giggled as Bulma tried to elbow her, but she quickly side stepped and darted behind the guard, who looked around with a very confused look on his face. This made Chichi laugh even harder.
The guard turned to look at the female behind him and got another shock. "Hey! Your eyes are brown!" Chichi suddenly became very defensive. Her eyes hadn't gotten much attention when Bulma was around and she didn't know how to react.
"Yeah…so?" Chichi scowled, but the guard only smiled wider.
"I think they're pretty," he said simply. Chichi's face turned beet red and her hands flew to her cheeks.
"Really? You think they're pretty?" Her voice was barely above a whisper. On the sidelines, Bulma's expression turned from annoyed to amused. Chichi had never been given a complement from a male. Bulma covered her mouth to hide her smile.
"Yeah…my name's Kakkarott. What's your name?" Chichi was too stunned to speak. Someone actually noticed her and she hadn't even fought yet! Bulma shook her head. Her friend had her eyes glazed over and a dreamy look on her face.
"She's Chichi, and I'm Bulma. Nice to meet you," Bulma said shaking her friend. Chichi quickly snapped out of her daze and smiled at Kakkarott. Man, she's really pretty when she smiles, he thought to himself as he took her hand. He couldn't resist kissing it. All the while, Chichi was blushing like mad. It took all of Bulma's will to keep from bursting out laughing.
Soon after, Kakkarott turned to start the fight matches, but not before asking Chichi out to lunch once all the fights were over. Of course Chichi accepted.
"Looks like you got a boyfriend Chi," Bulma play-punched her friend on the shoulder…
so chichi's got a boyfriend! How sweet! But what about Bulma? She'll meet a few candidates in the next chapter. Until then…
sorry, another short chapter. The next one will be longer. Anyway, review review review!
