Trouble in Paradise

Chapter 4: It begins

As Goten and Kaminari flew, with Kaminari in the lead, the scenery changed from big buildings to small ones. From lots of stores to lot of houses. Then the houses got rarer and rarer. Then Kaminari started to slow down. 'I guess she's getting tired,' thought Goten.

As they slowed down to a stop in mid air, she turned to Goten and said, "Gomen Goten, but I have to check on something." With that, she turned her back to him. They were on the very edge of a tree line; trees were all you could see for miles. It was like a green sea, as far as the eye could reach. Kaminari closed her eyes and concentrated. The wind picked up a little bit and tousled her long brown hair. She lifted her chin a little to the air and then, with an utter of a word, "Anah-hay…" everything was silent.

Kaminari turned back to the quiet teen behind her and said, "We may continue now."

'Woa, that was weird. Should I ask her?' But before he could think any further, Kaminari started flying again. Soon, they were surrounded by trees on all sides. The trees so think that it made like a canopy, to where no one could see the ground that was presumably beneath. "Kaminari?" Goten finally managed.

"Neh? I mean yes?" 'Dang, I can never get used to that!'

"Umm…why did we stop back there? And, if I may ask, what were you doing? I mean, you don't have to tell me, I was just wondering." 'Was that a different language she was speaking? And what was that…feeling? And her ki! It raised just a little back then. Hmm…'

'Oh great, now he thinks I'm a loser! Maybe I shouldn't have taken him here…but I was out longer than I was supposed to be. I hope everyone's alright…' she thought, with a brief glimpse of worry in her eyes. "Well, I'm taking you to my village, it's a complete secret and…we like to keep it that way. And if you were wondering, I was talking to my err…friend back there. Let's just say that we have our own little language now." she finished. "Please don't tell anyone that you came here, not that they'd be able to find anything."

Goten made a sign like he was buttoning his lips and throwing away the key, then her words sunk in, "What do you mean?"

"This." All of a sudden, she stopped flying and took Goten's hand. Both teens blushed. "Only people who know what they are looking for, and only people from a certain blood line, can see the opening. Hang on…" With that she dove towards the treetops.

'Oh my gosh, I think I know what she was talking about.' the closer the got to the trees, the faster his heart would beat. Then just has they were about to hit the trees; Goten closed his eyes, expecting to feel leaved and branches to hit him. He opened his eyes to see them standing on a tree branch. "W-What happened?"

She just looked at him and said, "You passed." He looked at her, confusion shinning in his big brown eyes. (A/N: I think he has brown eyes, I know he has dark colored eyes, so I just said brown… gomen if I got it wrong! ^.^;;;) Kaminari dropped his hand and immediately shivered. 'He was so warm! And he's passed the test! Yay!' she thought. She raised both her hands to cup her mouth and growled in a loud voice.

'What was that?!' panicked Goten. He looked at Kaminari as she 'growled' again. 'I wonder what she's doin'? She's so mysterious. It's great, though. And she's still hot!' She put her hands back down by her side and listened, in the distance, they heard another 'growl', then closer, they heard another.

"We may enter now, they know we're here." smiled Kaminari. When she looked at his confused face, which she mistook, she thought, 'I knew I shouldn't have taken him here!' "Now I guess you thin I'm a freak, ne?" she voiced.

"No! I don't! I've been introduced to many 'new' things before! Don't worry about me!" 'Oh great! Now she thinks I hate her!' he panicked, yet again. (He does that a lot, it seems.) Kaminari was about to answer when a monkey landed on a limb below them, squawking and squeaking to high heaven. A sudden look of fear crossed her face when she started squeaking back. The monkey nodded its head fiercely then took off.

"Come! We go!" she said. Goten just blinked a few times before jumping out of the tree following the sprinting Kaminari. In the distance, Goten's keen saiyan ears picked up shouting and roaring. Kaminari let out a humongous roar, one that would surpass that of a lion's, and took to the trees. Goten watched in awe as she would jump from limb to limb faster than he could run, and that was saying a lot. 'She looks like a monkey up there.' he thought. Which made him laugh a little at his scenario. As if she had heard him, she jumped from the tree, did a couple flips and landed softly on the ground. She took off in a full, all out sprint that would put a racecar to shame. Yet, you couldn't hear a thing except the distant sound of yelling and roaring. Goten tried to keep up, but he was actually getting tired. 'She's awesome! I wonder what's going on?' Soon, he came to a little clearing and that's where he saw it, what had made her run so fast. His jaw dropped and his eyes popped at the sight…


**Son Gohan's house**
Gohan and Pan both stopped their training with Videl and froze. "Something's wrong." whispered Gohan. But something was keeping them rooted in place. Also something told them that they would find out soon enough.



Mwuahahahaha!! My first attempt at a cliffhanger! Was it good?? Hehe….Go me! Go me! Lol…

Ok…I can't tell you the whole deal about Kaminari's strange behaviors. It will all soon be explained. But as for the language thing, I've been role-playing on Yahoo! And I had to make up a new language for my character. I can't say too much b/c the character's are both made from the same idea. So I can tell you what they mean!
