Bulma said goodbye to Chi Chi and Trunks and Goten waved to each other as
we got in the luxury car. I sat in the front next to Bulma and she smiled,
buckling Trunks in the back, then driving off, "So how have you been these
past years? Anything exciting?" I thought about the question for a moment
then laughed, "Let's just say it's more than I can tell you in one car
ride". She laughed as well as we continued on, Trunks falling asleep in the
back seat.
We got to Capsule Corporations after a while, and Bulma shut the door, Trunks slowly waking up in the backseat. She smiled as we walked inside, everything almost identical to the Future. Bulma got Trunks tucked in for bed and I waited in the living room, looking around at everything, sipping on some chai tea. Bulma walked back in and sat down across from me, having already set up a room for me. We talked for a while, and I told her how Trunks and I were still together, and also about Adam. She spoke after a while, trying to change the topic to a lighter one, "So were you planning in participating in the World Tournament? I'm sure it'd be a blast!" I grinned, planning on keeping it a secret until after the tournament, "No, I'll be leaving in 2 weeks, before the tournament". She shrugged, "That's too bad, you would have done really well". I sighed as we spoke for a while longer.
After about 3 hours of talking and laughing, I yawned, deciding it was time I went to sleep. Bulma wished me goodnight and walked to her and Vegeta's room to get some rest as well. I walked to my room and stepped in, flicking on the small table lamp and getting changed, then laying down in the warm bed and closed my eyes, attempting to falls asleep.
I looked up as I heard the door open and saw a small purple head in the dark. I turned on the lamp and saw a small Trunks in the doorway. He smiled a bit at me and spoke quietly, "I can't get to sleep, do you think you can tell me a story?" I smiled gingerly at him, sitting up and patting a spot next to me, "Sure, come sit here, I'd be happy to". He crawled next to me and leaned his head on my chest, I put an arm around him and told him a few fighting stories, but not scary enough to frighten him.
About an hour later I looked over and saw his eyes closed, knowing he had fallen asleep. I smiled to myself and very carefully picked him up, just as my sister had done with me, and carried him softly to his room, gently tucking him in. I kissed his forehead softly and whispered, "Goodnight Trunks…" and slowly walked back to my room, falling asleep as well.
I awoke the next morning with the mission of signing up for the World Martial Tournament, knowing I'd need to do it quickly and privately. I slipped out of bed and grabbed the capsule that held my outfit, getting changed into my normal outfit and planning on putting my disguise on before I entered the sign-up arena.
I saw Bulma sitting in the living room reading the newspaper and drinking some tea. I waved a hello and she smiled, "Morning! Where are you headed off to so early?" I looked at the clock and saw that it was 9:30am. I lied a bit to her, "Oh, some early sightseeing, you know, just the usual". She raised an eyebrow and grinned, obviously a little suspicious, "Well alright, have fun". I grinned and hopped out the door, opening up my hover-board so I could travel fast in the city.
I got to the arena where sign-ups were for the tournament, knowing I could get changed without a risk of being seen. I ran into a bathroom and put on the wig and outfit, then the final touch of the contacts, grinning because I figured no one could recognize me. I walked out towards the entertainment booth and saw about a dozen people gathered around to try and do something for it. I managed to squeeze my way past them to a desk to sign my name. The man behind the desk looked to be in his 40's. He looked at me, and asked very drone-like, "Name?" I smiled to myself as I thought one up,
"Kat Chan". He nodded, writing my name down then looking up at me,
"You'll be called to go and try out in about 30 minutes over at the stadium. You are to have what you will do fully prepared for the judges and they will post whoever got into the entertainment portion at 2:30pm today". I thanked him and walked off, having my CD of what I was going to play, determined to get chosen.
I sat for about 25 minutes when I heard my name, or my fake name, called over the loudspeaker. I grinned and jumped up, running over to the stadium excitedly. I gave the CD to the sound person, walking slowly onto the arena, noting the largeness of it for the fighters. I looked at the casting crew and saw there were 4 men and 2 women, looking rather tired. I had just the thing to wake them up.
I smiled politely and got in my stance, hearing the beginning tunes to the remix version of "Kung Fu Fighting", knowing that the song would be a bonus. I started doing a mix of fighting moves mixed with the dances I had learned while growing up. The judges looked stunned as I stopped, the music over. The spoke with each other frantically and waved good-bye, saying I would know my 2:30pm.
I thanked them and walked off, fairly confident. I decided that since I had a few hours to burn, I might as well spend them in the city. I began to walk off when I heard a very familiar voice behind me that caused me to stop immediately, "Hello, Kitty chan…"
