Adrianna: This is just to tell all of you suspicious people out there that
I don't own DBZ or any other best-selling series of any kind. So would you
stop sending your lawyers to my front door!
Chapter Three
Earlier.
When Kisike and I (neither barely winded) shook hands, I noticed Piccolo staring at us oddly. I wondered how long he had been watching and waved. He abruptly turned and looked pensive, even for Piccolo.
"Yeah! That was fun! Let's do it again!" said 'Sike.
"Okay," I agreed. We went into the fighting stance just as Goku walked over.
"Piccolo says you can come to our house!"
"Piccolo says you can come to our house. We can play with the bunnies tomorrow. Tonight, you can meet everybody. C'mon!" said Goku. Since the house was only an instant transmission away, we arrived just in time to see the sun set on the horizon.
"Darn time zones," muttered Keecha as she stomped into the house.
"You've got to meet my mommy!" said Gohan, dragging me with him. "Mom! Guess who we found! Mom!"
A petite trim lady stepped out of the doorway. "Where have you been? I've been worried out of my mind! No message and you didn't even bother sending someone home! You could have been DEAD for all I know!" It was amazing how so small a lady could look like a saber tooth tiger. Piccolo and Goku, who were both at least a foot taller than her, seemed to shrink as they tried to explain themselves. Both were sweating profusely while they stammered incomprehensible syllables.
"And what's this I hear about a new friend? You brought home another hitchhiker? Goku, really. What if they're a bad influence on my Gohan?" At this, the woman I presumed was Chichi hugged Gohan and dragged him away from me. She looked at me as if I was dirty and ragged and carried hundreds of infectious diseases. I probably look like I do, I reminded my self. Good thing Piccolo had some senzu beans, I thought, or else Chichi would have had a heart attack.
"It's okay, Chichi/ She's nice. Even if she wasn't nice, we would like her anyway. Like how we like you. Even though you're-" Kisike was interrupted.
"Kids. Aren't they cute? Heh," Krillin said. He sweat dropped. "Amanda, show Raylin the bunnies."
"Eek! Not the gigantic rabid bunnies! Nonono!" screamed Kisike as she ran into the house.
"Come on! Lemme show you where you'll sleep!" said Gohan, who had broken free of his mother's grasp and was now yanking me towards the hut. "You can sleep in my room!" he said.
"I don't think so, Gohan! She can sleep in my room," volunteered Amanda. I don't think she did it out of the kindness of her own heart.
The rooms were cozy and the house was spacious, despite the looks of it from the outside. Kisike and Keecha had their own room, which was not too tidy. There were socks hanging everywhere and the closet had perfectly straight hangers, but the clothes were piled in one corner. Toothpaste was all over the walls. Kisike said it was to give the room a 'minty fresh' smell. It made me gag.
Thankfully, Amanda's room was a little better. There were still clothes on the floor, but it was a moderate mess. Since I hadn't packed anything, I had nothing to unpack. I sat on my bottom bunk and watched Amanda draw pictures on her wall.
"Go away," she said. I had nothing better to do, so I went exploring the house. I found the gravity room and trained by myself for a little bit, then powered up and trained some more. After I had gone through all of my sequences and drills, I was very early in the morning. I hadn't had dinner earlier and I was starved.
I found my way to the kitchen by bumping into unfamiliar walls and sharp corners. In the end, I just followed my nose. I'm sure I looked strange, walking around with my arms spread out in front of me with my eyes shut and my nose pointed straight into the air.
When my feet hit cool tile, I relaxed. I walked through the doorway to find some break-
WHAM! A ki blast lit up the entire room. On pure instinct, I dodged to the left and was narrowly missed by one very powerful ki blast.
"What the hell?" I screamed, using language I didn't even think I knew.
Another ki blast was forming in the hands of someone across the room. I leaped to the right, feinted left and dived through the doorway. The energy blast blew up the wall and rocked the entire house.
"What's going on here?"
"Where's the party?"
"What in the world?"
"Holy moly! He blew up the kitchen!"
These exclamations came from, of course, Chichi, Kisike, Amanda and Goku. Keecha was standing in the hallway, speechless.
The sun had shone a thin line over the horizon and there was a dim light in the house. I peeked around the doorframe and found Piccolo standing by the oven. He was in an attack form. I looked at the wall. There was a hole 3 by 5 feet and the wall behind it had a large dent. I looked back at Piccolo with new respect.
"I said WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?" Chichi screamed at Piccolo. This time, Piccolo stood his ground.
"There was a stranger in the house. They had a massive ki level and I was aiming to stun."
"Have you forgotten Raylin?!" asked Keecha.
"But they were an elite and a person of royal blood." trailed off Piccolo.
"Umm.about that.yeah." I said, scratching the back of my head.
"Wee, regurgitate it already!" said Kisike impatiently.
"'Sike, it's spit, not regurgitate," sighed Keecha.
"Same difference," muttered Kisike.
"No, it isn't," said Keecha.
"Yah-huh!"
"Nuh-uh!"
"Yah-huh!"
"Nuh-uh!"
"Yah-"
"Enough! Both of you! Be quiet! Let Raylin explain herself," shouted Chichi, who had temporarily forgotten the gaping hole in the wall.
"Umm." I was nervous. I didn't know what they would do if they found out. Especially Piccolo. I glanced at him anxiously.
"Piccolo, get out. You're scaring her," said Chichi tersely.
"I'm not scared!" I said, thankful for another subject.
"Then he's scared of you. Piccolo, OUT! NOW!" yelled Chichi. Piccolo quickly shuffled out of the door, but didn't quite get out of the doorway.
"Now then, what were you saying?" said Keecha.
"Yeah.My full name is Reichikyu-" I started.
"We know that!" retorted Kisike.
"My entire name is Eto Reichikyu. I'm the princess of Earth," I said.
