Chapter 5
When Toto walked into the fighting arena, he couldn't believe his eyes. Numerous Saiyains littered the floor and two Saiyains were fighting above the rest. And they were good. He wished that he didn't have to stop the fight, but he needed an explanation.
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?" Toto boomed. The two boys apparently didn't hear him. He turned around and told the students behind him to stay. He flew into the air and threw a ki blast at each of them. They both hit the ground. Only then did he get a good look. Huh. Of course the prince thinks he can do anything!
The two boys got to their feet. The prince closed his eyes. What is he doing? Toto thought. Suddenly, Toto felt a tingle on his body. HE KNOWS THE ANCIENT MAGIC? HE HAS A BOND?!!!! Toto was amazed. All around the three of them, Saiyains groaned and grunted. One of boys who had been fighting flew over to a girl who looked like him and helped her up. The Saiyains all gathered around the original two boys, although three Saiyains were still down. Toto recognized them as older boys in the camp.
Toto put his hand's on his hips. "What is going on?" He demanded. "And who the hell do you fools think you are? This isn't a playpen! This is a training camp!" A girl with red hair stepped forward.
"I'm Radu of the Ancient Earth Clan. There are my brothers Kakkarot and Radditz." The two named stepped forward. The girl, Radu, seemed tired and one of her brothers slipped an arm around her waist. "Sir, This was my idea. I couldn't resist the temptation to start a war."
"So now that you've apologized, you're expecting to avoid punishment?" Toto questioned. He was testing her.
Although one of her brothers stiffened at the remark, Radu put a restraining hand up. "Sir, I'm not sure where you got that idea," she said carefully, "but I'll accept any punishment you wish to deal out. Although, I must admit, I find it stupid that you'd punish children for having fun."
"Girl, when you came here, you ceased being children. Now what I want to know is why seven young students here are up and three veteran students are down." Toto was testing them again. This time a different boy stepped forward.
"Sir, I'm Yokito of the Makkiu Clan and this is my sister Adrian." The said stepped forward. Yokito hesitated. "Apparently, we are stronger then your so called 'veterans.' "
Toto stared at him. Then, he started laughing.
"You don't know who I am, do you?" Toto asked when he was done.
Adrian said sarcastically, "Apparently not."
"Ah yes. Now I recognize you all. You are the new comers. Those three are your guards. I hope you had fun in your little game because after today, your mine." He smirked. "Now take yourselves and these guards to the infirmary. You all look disgusting." He turned around and went over to his students. He made sure the both groups could here him and he started talking.
"First lesson: I am your goddess. Until you leave, you will follow every one of my commands. If you don't, we fight. If you do and fail, we fight. If I just don't like you, we fight. Is that clear?" He looked around. The battle-damaged group was glaring at him. He raised his hand and, facing it towards their little group, shot Yokito. His sister made eye contact with Toto as soon as she caught her brother. The anger in her eyes was easy to see.
"I didn't like him." Toto 'explained.'
~~~~~~~Infirmary~~~~~~~
When the ten of them had walked into the infirmary, the little nurse had started bustling around like a busybody. In fact, she was a busybody. She had led the boys into one room and the girls into another. Or rather, Yokito and Gio were carried by Kakkarot, K'Naki was carried by Vegeta, and Palmer was carried by Radditz. The nurse, who introduced herself as Nurse Petunia had shown them quickly how to work the regeneration tanks.
Lyra, Radu, and Adrian were in the female regeneration room when Nurse Petunia walked in. The way she carried herself was unusually unSaiyain. She was extremely cheerful, worse then Lyra. She bustled around, getting the tanks ready.
"Uhhh. how are the boys?" Radu said carefully.
"Oh! They're just fine deary! Don't you worry a bit! Oh, a couple of them looked bad, but they'll be as good as new! Just you wait!" She stood up. "There! All ready! Now just so you know; when you graduate from here, males and females won't have separate regeneration rooms." She wandered out of the room, mumbling about privacy. The girls looked at each other.
Radu got up and took off her armor, which was unscratched. She stripped off her body suit and got into the regeneration tank. The sides went up and it filled up with green goo. Lyra and Adrian did the same.
~~~~~~~5 hours later~~~~~~~ Yokito opened his eyes. There was something in his mouth! Holy crap! He was in a tank! A regeneration tank! He started convulsing, trying to get the tube out of his throat. The liquid started to drain from the tank and the sides went down. Yokito went down to his knees and pulled the tube out of his throat. He threw up and started breathing heavily.
He looked up. All he remember was Vegeta mentally forcing him awake and then. nothing. He looked up. He saw is armor and body suit, clean and folded. He went over to it and got dressed. Once he was dressed, he turned around. Only Vegeta and Kakkarot were in tanks still. Not a surprise. They were probably fighting each other. Too bad it wasn't me who beat him. Then he remembered Lyra, Adrian, and Radu. He hurried out of the room.
He arrived in the central room of the infirmary. He saw the others eating at a table. When he entered the room, everyone looked up. Adrian flew into the air and landed in front of him. She hugged him fiercely and then backed off, embarrassed. Yokito smiled at her.
"I'm all right, Addy." He said softly. She looked at him.
"Do you remember what happened?" She questioned. He shook his head. She growled.
"This teacher stopped Kakkarot and Vegeta from fighting and Vegeta prodded us all awake mentally. Then this teacher was chiding us and he goes on about how he's our goddess. Then, out of no where, he shoots this ki blast at you and you were out!" She explained. She was clearly still angry about it.
"I'm sure we'll get him back for it. Man! I'm famished." Adrian smiled.
Lyra got up and went over to him. She smiled at him.
"Are you alright?" She asked. Yokito smiled back.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I just want some food!" He sat down next to Radditz and Gio. Radditz greeted him.
"Hey. This Nurse Petunia makes good food." He said.
Yokito nodded. "Good! I'm starving."
Just then, a girl walked in. Everyone got quiet. She was. exotic was the only word for her. Her coloration was anything but Saiyain like. She had blue hair and blue eyes. Her facial features were more delicate then any Saiyains. Also, she wasn't as wide at the shoulders as female Saiyains. But all these features worked for her. She was stunning.
And she was proud as well. She knew that everyone was looking at her but she kept her head up. She walked over to the table and set some more food on it. She gave them a little bow, turned, and walked back through the door she had come in.
No one talked for about 20 seconds. Then Yokito shook his head and said, "Whoa." The word seemed to snap everyone back to reality.
"Okay, if Nurse Petunia is her mother, which I don't doubt, they are so not from around here." Radu said.
"Well duh. Have you ever heard of a Saiyain with blue hair? Plus, she sure didn't look very strong. A female Saiyain has a bigger frame. She was tiny!" Adrian said.
"She was really pretty!" Yokito said. Radditz and the other guards nodded in agreement.
"I bet her planet was purged and her family was taken back here to act as slaves." K'Naki said.
"I wanna know what planet she was taken from! Man!" Palmer said. Gio elbowed him. "What?" Palmer asked, surprised.
"Dude, if what K'Naki said is true, the planet's gone. Anyway, isn't that a little superficial?"
"Uhhh. no?" Palmer ventured.
Gio rolled his eyes. "You don't even know what that means, do you? You know what, don't answer that."
Just then, Kakkarot staggered into the room. Naked. He stood there heaving his chest, apparently tired. The blue-haired girl walked in then. She took one look at Kakkarot and burst out laughing. Kakkarot looked at her confused. Just then, someone grabbed Kakkarot and dragged him back into the tank room.
"Owwwww! Vegeta! Is that really necessary?" Kakkarot questioned from the other room.
"Yes you fool!!! You're naked!" Vegeta growled. "Sometimes I wonder how you'll ever make it without people to look out for you."
Everyone sitting at the table started laughing. The blue-haired girl was standing up, still grinning.
A muffled laugh and an, "Oops, sorry." was heard. This set the girl off again. Then Vegeta walked into the room. He stopped and stared at the blue- haired girl, his jaw hanging slightly. She stopped laughing and stared at him. Her jaw muscles tightened.
"Do I stare at you?" The girl asked quietly, although her voice was clearly angry and everyone could hear her. She quickly turned around and walked out of the room, leaving a stunned group of Saiyains.
Vegeta was still standing there when Kakkarot bumped into Vegeta. He stumbled forward before he gained his footing again. He turned around to yell at Kakkarot, who had one hand behind his head and was grinning sheepishly.
"Gee! Sorry Vegeta!"
"Fool! Watch out!" Vegeta shouted.
"Gee, don't you think you're being a little harsh?" Kakkarot intoned.
"No I do not!" Vegeta said angrily.
"Let's go eat Vegeta!" Kakkarot said, spotting the food. Vegeta rolled his eyes and went over to the table.
"Wow Kakkarot! You managed to get dressed all by yourself!" K'Naki joked. Kakkarot grinned sheepishly.
"I wasn't really completely aware of my surroundings when I came around." Kakkarot said, one hand behind his head. Conversation soon stopped as the hungry Saiyains started on the food.
~~~~~~~30 minutes later~~~~~~~ Lyra wasn't that hungry. She had already eaten when Kakkarot, Yokito and Vegeta walked in. She was just picking at her food now. She leaned over to Radu and whispered,
"Have you noticed that most of this day has consisted of eating?"
Radu looked over to her and smiled sardonically. "Yeah, no kidding."
"Well, don't you think we should maybe finish the tour." Lyra asked.
Radu nodded. She turned back forwards. "Everyone, lets finish up and get back on our tour."
"Huh?" Kakkarot questioned.
"Oh shit!" Gio said, standing up. K'Naki and Palmer stood up too.
"Yeah! We really need to get going if we want to meet with Master Sakuno later!" K'Naki said. The walked away from the table and waited by the door.
"Come on!" Urged Palmer.
"Wait! Who is Master Sakuno?" Yokito asked.
"No time for questions. You'll find out soon enough." Gio said. Just then, Nurse Petunia walked in.
"Oh! You kids are leaving? Well, take it easy for the rest of the day! I don't want to see you back here in an hour! Have fun!" She waved and went over the table and started clearing it. Her daughter walked in and started helping. Everyone watched her for a split second before walking outside.
"Thank you for all your help!" Lyra called.
"Oh no prob-well, Radu, you don't want to lose your friends do you? Get going! They've already left!" Nurse Petunia said, noticing Radu still by the door.
"You. you guys aren't from Vegeta-sei, are you?" Radu asked quietly. Nurse Petunia carefully set down the dishes she was holding. She clasped her hands in front of her.
"Well, no dear. We aren't. I can tell you that we are from 'Earth' or, in your language, Chikyuu, but I cannot tell you why we are here. I am sorry."
"How long have you been here?"
"Oh, around 6 months." Nurse Petunia said.
You daughter." Radu paused, not knowing her name.
"Bulma." Nurse Petunia prompted. Bulma was also watching Radu.
"She is very exotic. Pretty. You had best watch out for. her well-being." Radu finished.
Nurse Petunia and Bulma both bowed to Radu.
"Thank you for your concern. Now go catch up with your friends!" Her smile once again graced her face.
Radu bowed back (a little awkwardly for she was unfamiliar with the gesture) and went out the door.
When Toto walked into the fighting arena, he couldn't believe his eyes. Numerous Saiyains littered the floor and two Saiyains were fighting above the rest. And they were good. He wished that he didn't have to stop the fight, but he needed an explanation.
