Chapter Two -
Greetings.

Bulma slowly awoke from her painful slumber.
She opened her eyes and felt a stingy presence.
Her body immediately went up with a jolt.
This made her body ache even more.
As the pain slowly and painfully subsided, her knuckles grew white from clutching the soft sea-green covers so hard.
She whimpered, even though she didn't want to.
She looked over to her side and saw a bowl of soup, just right as the stream arose from it.
Wait a moment...
Blankets?
Food?
'Where am I?', Bulma thought.
'Maybe the whole thing was a dream!', she thought hopefully.
But she knew in reality it wasn't.
The evidence was clearly shown.
Suddenly she heard footsteps quickly approaching.
She grabbed the covers and hide under it.
A man dressed as the guards where, was standing in the doorway.
"Alas, I see you have awoken!", he said in what it would seem a cherry voice.
"Please! Don't sir!", she said in a mute voice through the covers.
The man chuckled, "Oh, No! I'm not like them."
He walked slowly and softly to her.
Bulma peeked through the covers, still not sure to trust him.
"Don't worry...", he said in a sweet, soft voice.
She slowly withdrew the covers from her face and stared at him.
He wore exactly what the guards had, even the face cover.
He felt her eyes stare right through the face cover, so he took it off.
She gasped, it wasn't at wall what she expected.
He chuckled yet again, "Don't like what you see?"
"No..I didn't mean it like..that. I thought you guards were brutal looking as you are..well...brutal.", she replied.
He had a reddish-brown, spikey hair, and soft purple eyes.
"Well..they maybe, but I'm sure not.", he smiled.
"Oh..I see.", she said, mainly embarrased by her reaction.
"Hey, don't worry about it. Anways, lay on your back.", he ordered.
She sat there stunned.
She thought he was going to...
But instead she saw him reach for a bottle.
"I'm going to need to put this healing anointment if you lay on your back.", he told her.
She again was embarrased, but complied.
She laid on her stomach, and felt the blankets give away.
He slowly pulled up the shirt, well now torn shirt, as if wanting her approval.
He took a cotton swab and dabbed it everywhere.
He wanted to gag looking at the grusome, bloody back.
So, he tried to start a conversation, "My name is Zephryrus, what's yours."
She sighed and answered, "My name? You were probably there weren't you? So don't you know my name?"
He finished with the anointment and placed it on a nearby table.
"Yes..I was.. I saw. Everything. Bulma I'm so sorry.."
Bulma shrugged, "I guess this happens to the unfortunate.."

"Kalie! I need your help!", Zephyrus answered almost in a yell.
Kalie sighed at her table, rubbing her temples.
"You want me help that captive?", she asked uncertain.
"No! She's not a captive! The Master was using her!", he actually yelled this time.
Kalie stood abruptively in her chair, knocking it over.
"Don't you ever say that about the Master! Especially out there!", she pointed.
As Kalie went and fixed the chair back to it's normal posotion, Zephyrus explained.
"I know you don't believe me. But I saw it happen. She was just an innocent bystander!"
Kalie was still unconcinviced.
"What if next time when the Master is done with her, he might move on to another innocent girl."
She cocked her head to the side listening.
"What if.. the next innocent girl, was your own daughter. Maybe your sister..who knows."
Kalie blinked, and thought about it.
When it sank it, her eyes went blank.
Zephyrus smirk, He knew now he had caught her attention.

"Come on, This way."
Zephyrus lead Bulma through a series of halls, and walls.
"Um..Zephy? Where are we going?", she asked him. Using the nickname she had acquired over her stay with him.
"You'll see soon.", was his only answer.
She sighed, "Aw.."
Soon they stopped at a large door.
Zephyrus placed his hand against the wall and a control appeared.
He entered the password and the doors opened in all directions.
"Wow...", Bulma gasped.
There were millions of ships.
All kinds, all shapes, all colors.
"Wha--What are we doing here?", Bulma asked amazed.
A woman with, pure whote, long, lavishing hair, with light gray eyes came up to the two.
She rolled her eyes at Bulma's question then turned to Zephyrus.
"She really is that bad, huh?", the woman asked her.
Zephyrus nodded and shrugged, "I guess you could say it was that bad."
"Yikes.. Well stop standing there! Introduce us.", the woman demanded.
"Oh yes! Bulma this is Kalie. Kalie this is Bulma.", Zephyrus announced.
Kalie smiled, "It's nice to finally meet you Bulma."
Bulma smiled weakly back, "And to you."
"Well now that the greeting is over, let's go over there!", Zephyrus pointed.
Bulma's eyes widen, "Zephy? You mean we are going in ...there?"
"Yes! Of course!", He replied as he lead them to the entrance of a huge diamond shaped ship.
Kalie laughed, "You are one mysterious girl."
Bulma frowned, not knowing if that was a comment or an insult.
Zephyrus climbed up the steps and stuck his hand out to help the ladies.
"It's so big," Bulma admired.
"Yep! Your room will be the last room down the hall.", he showed her.
She entered the room and it seemed to luxurious.
"Wow..!", she gasped again.
It had only a bed, some chairs, a dresser with a matching vanity, a mirror.
And a door leading to the bathroom. (AN: You definatly need one of those!)
Kalie couched, "Ew..this room is so stuffy. And the bed sheets look absolutly horrible!"
Bulma nodded.
"Maybe so, but it seems like heaven compared to where I used to be.", she told her.
She then turned to Zephyrus, "Where are we going?", she asked.
"That..you will soon find out!", He told Bulma.
