Chapter 5 - Arrival
Pan was really starting to get annoyed by these stupid men and this stupid ship. She had been stuck in the hull of this darn craft for what she guessed were three extremely long days. She had paced around the metal room constantly, her meals consisting of a brown slop with a disgusting odor. She paced around the perimeter of the space, every so often looking through the round glass window at the darkness around her. When she had been younger she would often climb out on top of the roof and stare at the great expanse which was space and the timeless orbs which hung in it. Pacing now, in this wretched ship she thought about those years. She paused a moment and took the sort walk to the window. Staring out at the endless wonder, she thought of what awaited her on the planet Vegeta.
She remembered that the guards had said something about being a house servant. But they weren't here for her to ask; they were hiding in the next room. They had been bothering her for half the day she had first regained consciousness.
Eventually, she got tired of their endless questions and remarks, so she punched Ninjin in the gut; he was the closest to her. He huddled over, his hands at his round stomach. Kyuuri swung at her in vengeance but instead missed and was kicked in his crotch. He fell to his knees with a gasp of surprise.
As Ninjin recovered she faked a kick to his face but instead swung a deft roundhouse to his knees, being the idiot he was he just ducked, and she landed her kick on his face. She picked him up and as his friend stirred she threw Ninjin harshly across the room. Kyuuri was barely capable of seeing the punch that made him black out and felt nothing as he was pushed into the next room.
After that "incident" they had only slid bowls of slop in occasionally, but they never dared to come in. Her muscles ached, she needed exercise. She had tried to stretch the day before, that, however, was unsuccessful. Too many other girls lay on the floor around her, even as she paced she would have to watch her footing. The girls were, unsurprisingly, weak. ~Humans…~ They had stirred occasionally, but not much more than that. ~Perfect. When I actually get to see other people, they aren't even awake to talk to me!~ The trip had her stressed, those men had her angry and the prospect of Vegeta-sei worried her. While she had never seen anything beyond her home and the forest surrounding it, she was not at all eager to go and explore some unknown planet.
During those three days she had discovered something, she had a tail. For the first hours of her regaining consciousness she had been a bit busy, she hadn't even noticed. Apparently neither had Ninjin or Kyuuri, they were busy too. When she had finished 'dealing' with her two 'companions' she remembered jumping as something tickled her cheek. She turned her face and was surprised (to say the least) at a furry black ball beside her. Confused, she grabbed at it and pulled. A shocking pain ripped through her body and she fell to the floor, tripping over one of the girls.
She had laid, sprawled on the floor for several minutes before turning her head to look at her tail curl and uncurl it's furry length. That 'day' she had concentrated on controlling this new furry length. She hadn't noticed before, but she could feel it now and when she touched the floor with it, she could sense the cold floor, the smooth surface. It was a totally new sensation, her tail was even more sensitive then her fingers, it was like a whole new dimension.
She had never seen her father or mother with tails, neither had she ever had one herself, well not as long as she could remember. Thinking back she did recall her shock at both Ninjin and Kyuuri's tails.
~Could it be? No, that's not possible.~
So these were the saiyan scouters that her parents had always warned her about. ~Disgusting. Disgusting and weak.~ She figured it out eventually. ~Another lie. Mom and dad lied to me about myself. My race. My people.~ "No, not lied, just concealed the truth" she murmured to herself.
Suddenly she was knocked out of her reverie by a lurch in the ship. She could here metal gears churning as she was thrown to on end of the room. Her tail instinctively wrapped about her waist as she put her hands before her to avoid a painful collision with the wall. She could hear a yell in the next room, "What the hell, this has never happened before!"
Soon after reorienting herself, she scrambled to the window. Upon looking outside she encountered a sight she could never forget. The constant, monotonous black the scenery had once been was rapidly fading. Diminishing in a golden flash, she could feel the ship moving, traveling at a horrendous speed. Varied hues of orange, red, yellows and golden flashed before her. A constant change, seemingly everlasting, like a vortex. She could feel herself being pulled down, no more light walking in space. Gravity head on, hard core. Existent.
She could feel her tail clutch closer about her waist, making her gasp. She could almost sense as they neared their destination, Vegeta- sei. She left the window, not wanting to see her new home and as she did, she could hear her heart pounding in her chest, the sound reverberating in her ears, in her mind.
As all began to calm, her saiyan hearing picked up a distant call: "We're here! Get the humans ready for inspection!"
A/N: Sorry for the long wait and the short chapter! School is killing me! (- *_*-) How do you like it? Please review! (-^_^-) Oh and BTW – Her tail is black because of her human side, just like Trunks tail is lavender. (Did I mention that before or did I put something else? Oh well, it is now.)
