The last time in "The Lost Warrior":
The boys stormed into the kitchen and found Vegeta eating the last food they had. "Why do I have this feeling that we have to go to McDonalds?" Goten asked.
"Because my dad ate everything we got." Trunks answered his friend.
So they went to McDonalds and after they've eaten they went back home and decided to go to bed, because they had to get up early the next morning.
***********************************************************************************
Chapter 10: "The Real Training Begins"The next morning Trunks woke up at exactly 6.10 AM. Normally he wouldn't wake up this early, but this night he had a dream. The same dream Jenny showed him she had. He was bathed in sweat, so he decided to take a long shower this morning, because he had got time enough, since he got up early. 'Now I know, why she's afraid. This dream really is horrible. And it felt so real. No wonder that she's always tired at school,' he thought, when he stood in the shower. But his dream was slightly different from Jenny's. He stood somewhere in the hall and watched the whole scene. He couldn't do anything to help Jenny and that made him feeling so helpless. He wanted to protect her so badly, but he could neither move nor say anything. And as the man approached his girlfriend, he woke up, feeling absolutely terrible.
After the shower Trunks went to the kitchen, were his mother was already sitting. "Morning mom," the boy greeted his mother.
"Huh? Oh, good morning Trunks. How comes you're up that early?"
"I had a nightmare, which woke me up. And I couldn't sleep any longer after I had this."
"You wanna talk about it?"
"No, not yet." He first wanted to talk to Jenny about this dream, before he wanted to tell someone else about it. As Trunks has finished his breakfast, he took his bag, but was stopped by his mother.
"Trunks! Here, I made you a doctor's certificate for your missing last week. I also made one for Jenny, unless she already has one." He took the two pieces of paper from his mother, quickly said thank you and goodbye and left the apartment, jogging down the stairs. He wasn't surprised to see that Goten wasn't there waiting for him. He was simply too early, so he knocked at the door and Goku opened him.
"Hey Trunks, you're early!" the Saiyajin greeted him cheerfully.
"I know. Is Goten ready?"
"Almost!" they heard him shouting from the kitchen. Goten stumbled to them with an half-eaten piece of bread in his mouth and one shoe on, desperately trying to put on the second one, while he was holding his jacket and bag under his arm.
"Hey buddy, slow down! We've got plenty of time. I'm just pretty early today," his friend said laughing. Goten put his bag and jacket down and took the bread out of his mouth.
"Really? And I thought I was way too late, when you're coming to pick me up," the other boy answered grinning. "And now that I'm ready, we could as well go. Bye dad! Bye mom!" Goten shouted as he pushed Trunks through the door.
~*~
At the same moment Jenny was on her way to school. She stopped her car at a red traffic light and used the moment to think about the dream she had, again. But it was different this time. In the dream, she saw Trunks standing on the other side of the hall watching her. She could see in his eyes that he wanted to help her, but he couldn't move. 'Why was he there? Did he have the same dream? I think I have to ask him,' she thought, as the traffic light went green.
She arrived at her school just a few minutes later and could see that Diana was already there. So Jenny parked her car and went into the school, greeting Diana. "Hey Jenny! Did you already see? We don't have Danish today, as well as the others don't have English!"
"You're kidding! That means I could have slept longer for two hours!"
"Yep. And what are you planning to do now?"
"I don't know, let's wait for the others and see what they want to do."
"By the way… How was your Sunday? I tried to call you, but your mother told me you were out with Tom."
"It was wonderful. We were on a picnic and it was so romantic. I think I've never felt that happy before."
"I'm glad that you finally found someone. Maybe you won't go alone to the ten years class reunion, like in the dream I told you about a few months ago," Diana said laughing.
"Maybe…" Jenny answered her, smirking knowingly. Suddenly her smile became bigger.
"What are you smiling at?" the brown-haired girl asked.
"Tom's here."
"What?" She turned around and saw him coming through the door with Goten. "Where did you know that from?"
"I … euh… simply knew it." 'Ouch, that was close… But I must admit, being bonded does have its good sides.'
"Won't you go and say hello?" Diana finally asked.
"Huh? Yeah, sure." Jenny stood up and walked to her boyfriend. "Morning my darling."
"Morning hon." They greeted each other and then shared a long and passionate kiss. Suddenly they heard a voice.
"Hey you two, get a room!" It was a now laughing Isabel who was on her way to Diana.
"Do you think we should join them?" Trunks asked his girl as he still held her in his arms. Jenny nodded and Trunks took her hand as they walked back to them.
Shortly after Shana arrived and as Goten spotted her they soon were lip-locked. "Why do I have this feeling that I missed something?" Isabel asked them sarcastically.
"I don't know. What do you think Jenny?"
"Shana, don't ask me." Both began to laugh. When Gina joined the group a few minutes later, they decided to spend their free periods in the "Tearoom", a room with old furniture and an old stereo system. The two couples sat down on the big couch and the others sat either on the small couch or on chairs around the tables. They talked for about 30 minutes as Neena, another girl from their grade, entered the room. The first thing she saw were the couples.
"Let me guess. The two hottest guys on our school aren't available anymore. Right?"
"Right!" Jenny and Shana answered in unison.
"I'm glad for you. Have fun with them!" Neena said as she left the room.
'Hey Jenny,' Trunks addressed her through their bond.
'Yes?'
'There's something that was bothering me since I got up. I wanted to ask you if you had this dream again last night.'
'You had it, too. Am I right? Because I saw you.'
'You're right. But you must know, I wanted to help you, but I couldn't…'
'Shhh, I know… Don't blame yourself. It was just a dream.'
'I'm just worried about you. And… I want to have your permission to the others about it. It might help us to prepare for the upcoming battle.'
'I know that, too, but I'm not ready yet. Please give me a bit more time, ok?'
'Ok.'
"Hello! Earth to Tom and Jenny! Stop daydreaming, our free periods are almost over," Diana snapped them back to reality. "We're about to go back into the hall, would you come with us?" she asked further.
"Ok, we come," Jenny said and got up from the couch as well as the others. As they went to the door, Jenny was stopped by Shana.
"Can I talk to you? Just a minute?"
"Sure. So, what's up?"
"Are you coming now or what?" Isable asked them impatiently.
"You can go on ahead, we will follow in a few minutes."
"Fine. Then we're waiting in the hall!" With that the others left the small building, where the "Tearoom" was and walked to the big building.
"Jenny, I just wanted to let you know. If you want to talk with someone about the happenings in the last few days, I'm there for you."
"What are you talking about? Which happenings?" Jenny was getting uneasy.
"Oh, they didn't tell you that I know about them? What they are and where they're from?"
"You know? How long?" Shana looked around making sure that no one was there to listen.
"Goten told me yesterday. He told me about his family and friends … and about you being one of them. I just wanted to tell you, so that you know that you aren't alone with your secret and that you can talk to me. So, I think we let the others wait long enough. Shall we go?"
"Ok… and Shana… Thank you."
"You're welcome."
After they had arts, Shana walked towards Trunks, Goten and Jenny. "Hey! What are you doing now? I just got to know that I don't have PE today and so I wanted to ask you, if I can come with you."
"We're going now over to our house, where we want to start Jenny's real training. I'm sure my parents won't mind you to come over, especially my mom. I think she really wants to meet you in person after I told her so much about you. What do you think Tom (Goten called him by this name, because they're still at school, and there are too many people around. ^.^)?" Goten said and hugged Shana.
"I guess my parents don't care about it, but I think we should ask Jenny. It's her training." They all looked at the blond girl.
"What do you look at me? Of course can you come," she told her friends laughing.
"Fine, then let's go!" Goten said cheerfully.
While Jenny was driving them home, Goten called his mom over his cell-phone and told her that they would have a guest over lunch. His mother was very excited to meet her future daughter-in-law. The nearer they got to the house the more nervous got Shana. "Hey, are you alright? Don't worry, my family won't kill you," Goten teased her.
"Don't talk to me like that Mr. son-of-the-most-powerful-warrior-in-the-universe. It does not belong to my everyday life to meet the parents and friends of my boyfriend, who are by the way aliens," Shana teased him back.
"Could you two please stop? And Shana, don't say the Goten's-father-being-the-most-powerful-warrior-in-the-universe-stuff in front of my dad. He might kill you for that," Trunks told her smirking and Shana swallowed.
"Don't be afraid of Vegeta. He didn't kill me until now, so I'm sure he won't kill you," Jenny said also smirking. "So, here we are."
As soon as they got out of the car, the group and especially Shana was greeted with hugs by everyone, except Vegeta of course, who simply nodded in her direction as he was leaning in the doorframe. "Congratulations, my husband acknowledged you, that's good sign," Bulma whispered smiling in Shana's ear.
"I'm sure you guys are hungry. Come with me… I've got plenty of food for all of you," ChiChi told them as she walked back into the house.
After lunch and everyone had left
"Mrs. Son, it tasted really great. Can I help you with the dishes?" Shana asked after lunch.
"Thank you Shana. And no, you don't need to help me. By the way you can call me ChiChi in private and in public just call me Ciara. And I'm sure you can call all of us by our first names. Go on, I'm sure the others will start training, soon."
"Thank you Mrs. … uhm ChiChi."
"You're welcome."
Meanwhile in Trunks room
"Here I got something for you." Trunks gave Jenny a big box and as she opened it she saw dark-blue clothes.
"What's that?"
"This is a Saiyajin armor my mother made for your training."
"Wow, thank you." She kissed him on the cheek.
"I'll leave you now alone, so that you can change and I'm waiting in the backyard." As Jenny put on the armor, she watched herself in a mirror. It fitted her perfectly. After that she walked downstairs and met Shana, as she came out of the living room.
"Hey Jenny! Wow, where did you get that from? It looks good at you."
"Thank you. Bulma made it for me for my training. The others are waiting for us in the backyard, so shall we go?"
"Yep."
As they arrived in the backyard, Goku, Vegeta, Trunks and Goten were already there. "Kakarotto, now that they are here, bring us somewhere where we can train in peace."
"Kakarotto? Who's that?" a confused Shana asked Jenny.
"It's Goku's Saiyajin name. Vegeta calls him always this way," Jenny whispered back.
"So, now put your hand somewhere on my body." They did as Goku said and then he took two fingers at his forehead and they disappeared in the backyard and reappeared on a large field.
"Wow, what was that?"
"Shunkan Idou. Also called Instantaneous Movement or Teleportation," Goku told his son's girlfriend.
"So, now that we're here, let's begin with my training." They looked at Jenny, who was now completely serious.
"Good. I guess you don't know how you made your transformation." Jenny nodded. "Thought so. But I think I know how it worked. You instinctively powered up as I attacked you and then you changed. It's the same with us in this dimension. When we power up to an exact point, we change into our normal forms. Like this." Vegeta powered up and suddenly he got back his spiky Saiyajinhairstyle. "The same will happen with Kakarotto, Trunks and Bra when they power up, because their outer appearance had been changed as we were sent to this dimension." He powered down again. "For learning how to control this power-up, you have to learn to control you ki, that means the power inside your body. When you can control your ki, you might also be able to fly. This is what you'll learn today. Are you ready to do it?" the prince asked her.
"Sure." So, Vegeta told her what she has to do to control her ki, while all the others were standing at the side. They all knew that Vegeta was the only one who really could train her, because the others were too afraid to hurt her.
Within half an hour Jenny was able to form small ki-balls in her hand and to blast small rocks. And again one hour later she could already fly pretty well. While they were watching her, Goku walked up to Vegeta. "So, what do you think?"
"She really is promising. I didn't expect her to fly today, and especially not after 90 minutes. Maybe she will already master he power-up today." Then Vegeta floated up to her. "Enough flying for today. Now you'll try to transform."
"Ok."
"To power up, you have to make your ki bigger, that means you have to concentrate all your power in your body." He took a few step aside. "Try now!" Jenny closed her eyes and the others could see the tension in her body. Soon a thin blue aura surrounded the girl. She clenched her fists and with a sudden scream the aura around her exploded and the explosion whirled a lot of dust up. As the dust cleared they all couldn't believe their eyes. Jenny did it, she had transformed. Although Vegeta already knew this form, he was surprised that she did it that quickly, but he didn't show it. 'Now I can see that she's your daughter, Kakarotto. She's got some potential. You must be proud of her,' the Saiyajin no ouji admitted to himself with a smirk.
"Wow, is that really Jenny? One moment, what is THAT?!" Shana cried pointing to the back of Jenny.
"That's the tail of a Saiyajin. Normally we all have one, but they cut it of," Goku explained her.
As Jenny opened her eyes again, she could see everyone staring at her. 'Did I do it?' She took one strand of her hair and looked at it. Then she looked at her back and saw a tail swaying lazily behind her. 'I really did it. I can't believe it.' Suddenly without a warning Vegeta rushed towards her and attacked her. She was able to block a few punches, but most of the time the prince hit her. Trunks wanted to run towards her and to help her, but Goku stopped him.
"Don't worry. He won't kill her. I'm sure he just tests how long she's able to stay in this form when she's attacked."
Trunks sighed. 'Jenny, please hold on.'
Jenny tried hard to concentrate on two things. To stay in this form and to block Vegeta's punches. 'I won't give up. Never.' Without even noticing it, both of them were floating in the air, when a kick from Vegeta hit Jenny on her back and sent her to the ground. As she tried to get up, she saw two boots standing in front of her. She managed to get on her feet only to be hit again by Vegeta. Again Jenny tried to get up. She wiped the blood from her mouth and her nose.
"Do you give up?" Vegeta asked her smirking, but she smirked back.
"Never." With that she stormed towards him and attacked him, but he easily dodged her flying fist and hit her hard in the stomach. This made her lose her concentration and her consciousness.
"Oh my god Jenny!" Trunks, Goten and Shana shouted in unison and ran towards her.
"Don't worry, I didn't kill her. Kakarotto, bring her back to Bulma, she can give her a senzu."
"Ok, Trunks you want to come with me? I'll come and take you guys in a few minutes." With that Goku picked Jenny up and brought himself, Trunks and Jenny back to their house.
"Mom? Are you here?" shouted an upset Trunks through the house.
"Trunks, what's up?" At this moment Bulma saw a limp Jenny lying in Goku's arm.
"Oh my god. Goku, bring her to Trunks room, I'll go and get the senzubean." A few minutes later Goku had picked up the others and they quickly went to Trunks room and they found Trunks standing outside.
"Will she be ok?" Shana asked. Trunks nodded.
"Mom's now with her. She gave her a senzu and she must be awake in a few minutes."
At this very moment Bulma opened the door. "You can now go in. She just woke up. She's completely ok." The others sighed and went in and saw Jenny walking towards them. They hugged her.
"What did you do that for? You knew that you couldn't stand a chance against my father and though you did attack him," Trunks asked her, when he hugged her.
"I absolutely didn't want to give up. And don't worry, I'm alright, but I'm hungry and I think I'll drive home now. I still got much homework to do."
"Ok, I'm sure you want to change first. We'll wait outside."
After Jenny changed, she said goodbye to her friends. "Shana, do you need a ride?"
"No, thank you. I'll take the bus."
"Ok then, see you all tomorrow!" So, Jenny got to her car and drove home.
