This is easy. Thought Articia as she crept through the cave. There's that Dragonball now! But as she reached to grab the ball, it vanished before her eyes. DO'H!! She muttered her favorite ancient Ice-Jin curse word. I guess that's one of those hallucinations I heard about. I've got to pay more attention to what I'm doing. With a sigh she walked further into the cave.
Suddenly, she heard a noise behind her, spinning she saw a face from beyond the grave. "U-Un-Uncle F-F-Freiza!? But, you're…"
"Dead?" He offered, "Perhaps, but still alive enough to kill you." He pointed one finger at her and the distinctive pinkish energy of his signature, killing move began to glow at the tip. It's all in my head, she realized and in less than a half-second she has powered up a small energy-bomb and fired it at him. As the bomb approached him thou he seemed to dissolve into the air, and the bomb was harmlessly absorbed into the wall. "What the?" The rock absorbed the energy!! She realized with a shock. This stone absorbs any energy that hits it, that's why it blocks the Dragonball from the radar, and if it absorbs a person's energy they may start to see things, and if it sucks up too much of their power they could die… I've got to get out of here, ASAP!! She took off down the cave in search or the Dragonball.
Freza reappeared three more times on the course of her search, and each time she blasted him away before he could even say anything. Once King Kold showed up, and he too was disintegrated into nothingness.
Then the most frightening beings of all. A creature who could almost have almost been a Sayan (If he was a bit bulkier, had had a tail, and didn't have an expression suggesting to Artica that he was doped up on some kind of drugs) wearing a striped, green shirt.
And a small blue animal, the sight of which was so cute that it made her want to throw up.
"Look Blue! Let's go say hello to our new friend." The thing in the striped shirt said to the blue thing.
"Bow, Bow-BOW!" The thing replied, and the two of them began walking toward Articia.
Before they had taken four steps they were annihilated with extreme prejudice. I do NOT to see what this place throws at me next… In the end, however, she never found out. The Dragonball was right past where she had seen those two terrifying creatures. Her blasting had almost destroyed it. It's a good thing I didn't go for a head shot on that thing in the stupid striped shirt. I would have smashed the Dragonball. As it was , there were just a few scorch marks a few inches below the ledge where the ball sat. I must have used more energy than I realized. Even this stuff couldn't absorb it all. She reached out to grab the ball, and suddenly froze. What if it's not real, like the other one I thought I saw? But she decided there was only one way to be sure, and gently touched the ball. It's real!!! She thought with relief. Now I can wish mom back to life and we can both go off to earth together and I can meet Vegeita!
As she touched the Dragonball something unexpected and welcome happened. She could feel energy flowing from the ball and into her body. She hadn't realized how badly she was drained until she got some of her energy back. This cave sapped a lot of my energy, and the Dragonball is somehow giving me some of it back. Not much of it, thou, I'm at less than half power. I'd better get out of here before I start hallucinating again.
It took Articia less than 2 minutes to find her way back to the entrance of the cave. Earth, she thought, here we come!! When she got there, however, the door was locked. "HAY!!!" She shouted, banging on the door. "LET ME OUT!!!!"
When there was no response she leveled another energy bomb at the door and blasted it clear off it's hinges. The force of the explosion sent a young Namek flying across the room. He hit the far wall with enough force to knock him out cold. Articia suddenly realized that he had been holding the door shut!
The Eldest Namek was missing, as were the six Dragonballs she had collected so far. She had just enough time to wonder, Where are they? Before the front door of the house exploded inward and four young Nameks stepped through. "We have taken the Dragonballs back, as well as our leader. We don't know what you've done to him, but we're willing to bet that he'll hate your kind just like the rest of us, once we've killed you that is."
