Cat and Mouse: Chapter Two



She faced the mysterious creature before her. Only now could she feel his ki, and it felt evil and powerful.

'Who is this freak?!' Sekai screamed in her mind. 'And how is he so powerful?' Her heart pounded furiously in her chest. She growled in frustration and anger at the beast in front of her. He definitely looked intimidating.

She heard a squeaking sound and looked to see the weird thing walking towards her again. Unconciously, she tensed up as he neared her. Never had she seen such a disgusting and ugly being before in her entire life.

"My, you are quick to move, my dear," he spoke in that raspy voice of his. Sekai silently gulped saliva down her now parched throat. "Let's see just how fast you are!"

He ran at her again with amazing speed. Out of pure instinct, Sekai jumped up and dodged his lethal tail again and again. His movements were so fast that she couldn't even get on the offensive. All she could do was dodge whatever he threw at her.

He made a swipe for her face and knocked her into an already ruined building. Groaning, she forced herself to stand up and felt him coming at her again. This time he punched her straight in the face, on the cheek. Once again, she was knocked away. Frustrated with being so easily pushed around, she tapped into her power source from within and called it forth. She just had to defend herself and survive.

With a sudden burst of energy, she ran at the monster. Unfortunately for her, he caught the fist she had aimed to strike him with and tossed her into another building. Sekai flipped so that her feet were heading to the wall of the building and used it as leverage to push herself back at him. Momentarily off guard, the green freak got one hit in right on his face.

Shocked, he growled and turned to her. The punch hadn't hurt at all, but the fact that the girl had gotten a hit through his defenses at all was not acceptable. No human had ever struck him!

'She is stronger than normal humans to be able to punch me like that,' he thought. 'I wonder about her...'

He decided to test her skills and flew at her again. Suddenly, he sensed something that would soon spoil his plans.

Sekai saw him flying at her and prepared herself for another round.Then, without warning, he stopped and jumped back. She wondered what had happened to cause him to back away. She saw him looking up at the sky and frowning. She looked up, too, trying to see what he was looking at.

"Piccolo..." she heard him murmur.

'Huh? Who's Piccolo?' Sekai looked back down at the lizard-like being in confusion. Then, she saw another sight she was not prepared for. A man, green in skin color, flew down from the sky with no technological means of transportation. He wore a purple gi with a white cape and turban and orange shoes. He had patches of pink muscles on his arms and a mean stare aimed right at the monster whom she had been fighting.

'What is up with these green people? I mean, green is my favorite color, but this is just ridiculous,' she exclaimed silently.

"Cell!" the green guy, whom she figured was Piccolo, shouted. Then, he looked in Sekai's direction. "Get out of here, girl!"

Sekai blinked and just stood there for a moment. When she snapped out of it, she yelled back at him. "What about you?"

"Just worry about yourself and get far away from here!" Piccolo commanded.

"Do not interfere, Piccolo," Cell intervened. "She is my prey, and I will not allow her to escape."

"Wanna bet?!" Piccolo called, and he fired a ki blast at Cell.

Sekai rose her arms up to shield her eyes from the light and dust caused by the ki blast. The wind blew wildly about her and mussed up her green hair. Suddenly, she felt someone grab her arm and pull her into the air. She gasped in surprise and turned her head to see Piccolo holding her to get them both away from Cell. She got a glimpse of Cell lowering his arms from his defensive position and begin yelling at them. She couldn't hear what he was saying with the wind whistling so loudly in her ears. Piccolo landed about three miles away from Cell rather quickly and released Sekai.

"Now get out of here." He repeated his earlier advice.

She stared at him, dumbfounded. Too much had happened today that was out of the ordinary and she was having a hard time swallowing it all. So she gave a response that showed just how intelligent she was at the moment.

"Huh?"

Piccolo growled. "I said 'Get out of here'. Do you understand?"

Slowly, the gears were turning inside Sekai's head. She responded with,"I don't understand anything right now." That was true for her.

"You don't need to understand anything except the concept of getting away from here. Nothing else is of your concern."

That remark made her snap back to reality. "What do you mean nothing else is of my concern?! I just got into a fight with that...that..thing! And you mean to tell me that it's none of my concern?!" she exploded.

"Look, just leave here now! Cell will be on his way any minute!" Piccolo yelled.

"Let him come. He started a fight with me and I'm not going to be the one that'll back out. I'd just like to see him try." Sekai folded her arms across her chest and turned her head away from Piccolo with her eyes closed, gesturing that the deal was already done.

Piccolo roughly grabbed her arm. "Are you crazy?! Don't be foolish! Cell will show no mercy to you. He didn't to anyone else so why would he spare you?" The Namek was fuming.

Just when Sekai yanked her arm away and was about to respond, another man entered the scene. He flew down to the two of them and landed next to her. She got a good look at him and noted that everything about him was normal except for the fact that he was unusually well-built and he had an extra eye on his forehead.

'How weird can this day get?' she thought to herself.

"Tien! Quickly, get this girl out of here. Cell will be here any minute now." Piccolo was quick to tell the man.

"Right." he responded. Although, before he could pick Sekai up and take her out of the city, a large ki blast was shot in his direction directly in front of him.
