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.
~~~This chapter is going to switch scenes quite a bit. For the most part, they're pretty much happening at the same time, just in different places. I just hope it's not too confusing~~~
"He showed you around the whole palace?" Goku pulled a black t-shirt on.
"No, we only got to a few places before Kasal took him away." Kara sighed and tied her hair up into a short ponytail. The three of them were dressing in all black as to help camouflage themselves in the darkness in case someone was still up and about.
"Damn. So did you see anything that might be helpful?"
"No. He basically showed me the third floor. I didn't see anything suspicious."
Vegeta crossed his arms and sighed. "He didn't try anything with you did he?"
Kara looked at him. "No. Why do you ask?"
". . .No reason." ~Faye's been trying all sorts of stuff with me and I know Terra and Goku are all over each other. This whole thing just seems a bit odd~
Kara shook her head and sighed, "Vegeta. . ." She walked up to him and put her hand on his cheek. "You don't have anything to worry about."
". . .I know."
"Come on guys." Goku walked up to the door and looked at them. "Now remember. If you're caught, just say you were restless and wanted to take a look around. Also, at the first sign of sun rise, meet back here."
Kara and Vegeta nodded.
Goku opened the door and the three of them quietly went out of the room. Goku looked around to see if the cost was clear. Once he was satisfied he, looked at them and whispered, "Good luck."
The three of them took off in different directions.
"They're on the move my lord."
"Excellent."
Kasal was starring into a crystal orb, Bota looking into it from behind her.
"Go ahead and clear it Kasal."
"You do not wish to continue watching?"
"No. I'm going to go rest. I want you to go start your lesson with Lark."
"It would be wise to keep an eye on the mortals. You should not underestimate them."
"You worry too much. Now take your leave, that's an order."
Kasal sighed and waved her hand over the orb, causing the images of the saiyans to vanish. "As you command." She put her hands together and bowed before leaving the room.

~Man, this place is like a maze~ Goku leaned up against a wall and peaked around the corner to make sure no one was there. ~This would be easier if I could see through walls~ He turned the corner and stealthily, walked down the long hallway. He came up to a door and opened it quietly. He looked inside, ~I think it's a library~
"You shouldn't be here."
Goku jumped and turned around. "Terra?" He carefully shut the door. "I'm sorry, I couldn't sl-"
"It's ok. You're not in trouble." She smiled and gently took hold of his hand. "I can't sleep either."
"Well uh. . .Maybe you should try again." He looked into her eyes and any anxiety he was feeling, suddenly faded. There was something about her that always seemed to calm him.
"Alright. Will you walk with me back to my room?"
". . .Sure."
*****
"This really sucks." Vegeta closed the box that he had been looking through. "It could take a few nights to search just half of this place." He walked over to a dresser type piece of furniture and started searching through the drawers. It was filled with various women's clothing. He was currently in a bedroom but there was no one there. He figured it was a guest room but was soon proven wrong.
Faye walked in and shut the door behind her, making just enough noise to startle Vegeta.
He froze and started cursing at himself silently for not paying attention to the world around him. "Uh. . ." He shut the drawer and turned around. "Hey Faye, I uh-"
"I knew you couldn't stay away from me Vegeta."
"Huh?!" He stepped back, "No, it's not like that."
"Then why are you in my room looking through my clothes?"
"Oh! This is your room?" He slowly made his way to the door. ~Shit. I gotta get out of here~
"Don't play dumb with me Vegeta."
"But I'm not. I really didn't know-"
Faye moved quickly and grabbed him. "No more games Vegeta."
"Hey, what the hell are you doing?!"
"I know you want me."
"Like hell!" He pushed her away, "How many times do I have to tell you? I'm with Kara."
"Oh yeah? Well I have a feeling that's all going to change real soon." Her eyes widened and began to glow as she glared at him.
Vegeta looked at her. "What the hell are you. . .talk. . .ing. . .about." He suddenly felt drowsy and the room seemed to spin.
Faye grinned and pushed him down on top of her bed. "You really are quite handsome for a foreigner. . ."

~*~Over here~*~
Kara's eyes widened as she looked around. "Hello?"
~*~This way~*~
~What the hell is going on~
~*~Be not afraid. Follow the sound of my voice~*~
Kara slowly turned and started walking back in the direction from which she just came. ~I must be losing my mind~
~*~This way~*~
Kara turned left and began walking down another hallway. ~Did the voice just change? It sounded like a little girl before, now it sounds like a guy~
~*~Stop~*~
Kara halted.
~*~Go through the door to your right~*~
Kara turned and put her hand on the knob. "You're losing it girl." She took a deep breath and opened the door. Her eyes widened.
"Hey!" Lark stood up and smiled. "It worked."
Kasal looked at him and sighed. "Lark, we have been watching her. We knew it was working from the beginning."
Lark's expression turned into an embarrassed one as he looked down at the orb. "Oh yeah."
Kara walked towards them. "You guys saw me walking around out there?"
Kasal looked at her. "I was teaching his majesty to gaze into the orb. He saw you and I thought it an appropriate time to test his mental communication skills."
". . .Oh."
"Lark."
"Yes?"
"You are excused. This evening's lesson is complete."
"Thanks Kasal." Lark walked towards the door then looked at Kara. "Come on, it's best you not stay here while Kasal practices her spells."
"Hm?" Kara looked at him, "Oh, ok." She followed him out. "So uh." She crossed her arms as they walked down the dark corridor. "Do your sisters learn magic as well?"
"Not really. We're all born with certain abilities but there are only two in the village at a time that have extensive magical abilities. The sorcerer, or sorceress, and their apprentice."
"You and Kasal. . ."
"Yeah. . .So what were you doing up and out of bed?"
"Uh. . .I couldn't sleep. . .Just wanted to look around."
"Oh." He stopped in front of a door and put his hand on the knob. "This is my room."
Kara took a couple steps ahead of him before she realized he had stopped. She turned around and looked at him. "Well, I suppose I should go back to bed now."
"Wait. I want to show you something."
"Well uh-"
"It'll only take a minute."
". . .Ok." She followed him into the room.
"Come here." He kneeled down in front of a small table.
Kara walked around to the other side of the table and got down on her knees. "This is another one of those crystal things."
"Yeah, except this one's a bit different. It shows the user any event in the past that they wish to see."
"Oh."
"Go ahead and give it a try."
Kara looked at him. "Really? How do I do it?"
"Just think about something you want to see."
". . .Ok." Kara looked into the crystal orb and concentrated. ~It would be nice to see grandma Pan again~
Suddenly, what appeared to be a black cloud, swirled around in the orb. When it cleared up, she could see an image of Pan smiling at her. ". . .Grandma. . ." She gazed into the orb for several minutes until she felt a hand on her shoulder. She got up and looked at him, "Sorry, guess I kinda spaced out."
"It's quite alright. I just wanted to stop you before you lost yourself completely." He removed his cloak and tossed it on to a chair. "I've known people to spend years in front of these things." He sat on the edge of his bed and sighed.
She looked at him and couldn't help but notice the troubled expression on his face. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing."
She sat beside him and put her arm around his shoulders. "You can tell me Lark."
He looked at her and smiled. "You're a very kind and caring person Kara."
Kara smiled. "Shh. Don't tell anyone."
He grinned. "You'll make the perfect companion."
"Huh? Oh. Well Vegeta's said similar things before." Kara suddenly jerked her head to the side and looked out the window. ~I don't have long until the sun rises~ She got to her feet and looked down at him. "I better get going."
He got up and followed her as she walked to the door. "Kara."
She turned around and looked at him. "Yes?"
"When I said you'd make the perfect companion-" he put his hands on her shoulders and smirked, "-I didn't mean for Vegeta."
