Descendants, Earth's New Hope

Disclaimer:: I do not own any of the Dragonball/z/gt characters. . .Just so you know. Well actually I only put this here because I have to.



"mmm. . .no. . ."

Goku sighed and kicked a huge rock that was in their way, causing it to break into thousands of pieces. "She's been muttering gibberish for the last half hour."

"Yeah I know. . .She's probably having a bad dream or something." Vegeta shifted her slightly to get a better grip. ~Everything's going to be alright, I won't let you die~ "We need to keep looking."

"Yeah."

Goku crossed his arms and looked around. They were in an unusual place with many trees but as far as they could tell, there were no people or animals living here. The whole area was covered in a light fog and engulfed in an eerie blue glow. "This place gives me the creeps."

Kara moaned quietly, ". .Vegeta. . ."

Goku stopped and looked at the two of them. "You know. . .I was too confused at the time to think anything of it. . .but now, I seem to remember Kara telling you that she loved you."

"Heh!" Vegeta smiled nervously and stepped back, "She was delusional man!"

Goku gave him a stern look, "Don't lie to me. You were about to say it too."

"Um, no. . .You must have heard wrong."

He uncrossed his arms and clenched his fists at his sides. "What's going on between the two of you?!"

"Nothing! We're just friends."

"Damn it Vegeta! Don't lie to me!"

Vegeta looked down at the ground and sighed. "I'm in love with your cousin. . .Happy?"

"What else? I know that can't be all."

"Well. . ." He looked back up at Goku. "It's hard to explain. . .We've recently become more then just friends."

Goku looked like he was about to explode. He didn't know whether to be happy or angry. "Why didn't you tell me?!?!?!"

Vegeta took another nervous step back. "B-b-because she didn't want me to."

Goku shook his head. "I've been so stupid! It was so obvious! I just kept telling myself there's no way it was possible!" He slammed his fist against a nearby tree.

"I didn't think it was possible eith-"

They both turned their gaze towards the tree that Goku had just hit. The fact that it hadn't been damaged was unusual enough but now something seemed to be happening to it. Goku stepped away and looked at it in shock as part of the tree disappeared. Where the base was supposed to be, there was now only a mystical green glow.

". . .What the hell?"

Goku slowly reached out towards it. He touched the light and his hand disappeared. He quickly pulled his arm back and looked at his hand. "I. . .I think it's some kind of. . .portal."

"Do you think that-"

"Maybe." He looked at Vegeta. "I'm still pissed at you."

". . ."

He looked back at the tree. "I'm going in. . .do whatever the hell you want." He sighed, "And that would probably be my sister."

"Goku!"

Goku stepped towards the light and disappeared.

"Damn him." He sighed and walked up to the tree, "He was being hasty but this might be what we were looking for. . .here goes nothing." He closed his eyes and stepped forward. A warm feeling rushed through his body and he felt as if he was floating. Very soon, however, the feeling was gone.

"Welcome."

Vegeta opened his eyes, "Huh?"

Standing in front of him was a tall man with light blue skin, yellow eyes, pointed ears and fang teeth protruding from his mouth.

Vegeta looked around nervously. He saw Goku standing not too far away, surrounded by many other people that had the same features as the strange man. "Where am I?"

"Do not be alarmed. I am Bota and you are in my land, the village of Slegna."

~I wonder if this is the place. . .The people have some similar features but they don't exactly look like the one we fought~

Bota looked at Kara and snapped his fingers. Only seconds later half a dozen people walked up to Vegeta and took Kara off his back. "Hey! What the hell are you doing?!"

"Relax my friend." Bota put his hand on Vegeta's shoulder and led him in the direction that Kara was being taken. "We only wish to help her."

Goku saw them walking away and pushed his way through the people that were surrounding him. He caught up just as they entered a small, oval shaped building. "What's going on?"

"I don't know."

Goku glanced at Vegeta, "I wasn't talking to you."

Vegeta looked away sadly and sighed.

"We are going to make your female companion well again."

Kara was set down on a table in the middle of the room. A young girl walked up to her, "You must leave now. I need to concentrate."

Bota nodded and led Goku and Vegeta back out.

"Wait! Why do we have to leave?!" Goku turned to go back in but Bota grabbed him.

"If you want her to get well, you will stay out."

Goku gave a small growl and pulled out of his grip. "Fine! But if any harm is done to her, you'll regret it."

Bota smiled brightly, "I can see she means a great deal to you. . .Come, let me show you my village." He started walking away.

Goku and Vegeta followed.

"I have eagerly awaited your arrival."

Vegeta crossed his arms, "What? How did you know we were coming?"

"The forest you were in, it's a magical place that hides this village. It has a spell upon it that causes most mortals and animals to be too terrified of the forest to go anywhere near it, but there are a select few that aren't affected. Whenever someone does enter, we can feel their presences. The young girl that you saw earlier is actually a powerful sorceress. She tapped into your minds and told me a great deal about you. That is how I knew your friend was ill."

Vegeta crossed his arms and sighed, "I guess that clears up a lot."

"Tapped into our minds? So she knows everything about us???"

"No. She only knows what you've been thinking since you entered the forest."

They stopped in front of a huge castle-like building. "This is my home, please come in. I will have my servants prepare a glorious feast."
