Okay, here it is. I've had to do some digging and some extra looking into
it, but here it is.
Now, I'm going to put some background and some foreground into this so find it (if you're bored enough).
No names have been changed because no one is innocent and don't need protecting.
~~~~~~*** THE DAY ***~~~~~~
For a long time I had noticed it. This world, and the worlds I have gone to, each have a specific feel. Each with their own frequency.
But no matter where I go, none of it is familiar. Having mastered the use of my 'Cold Warp Gate' so that I can make it take me to any alternate universe and to any specific time in that world, I have sought out a place similar to my own world. My own spirit, soul, mind, and body have their own feel and it has taken me a long time to find that frequency.
So one day, I decided to face reality, I knew that it couldn't be good, but I just had to know the fate of my world.
I was in the training room, and had brought some things with me. Mostly things to help me breathe in empty space, because even if Earth was there, I was going to appear just outside its atmosphere, or where it should have been.
"Whatcha doin?"
Jenny had followed me, but I wasn't ready to deal with anyone yet. Turning around I gave her a cold stare. But seeing the apprehension in her eyes I realized my mistake and fought to lighten up. I attempted a smile and answered her question. "I'm going somewhere."
"Where?"
"To my past..." It wasn't really an answer, but it was the best I could do to describe it for now, especially since I didn't know what to expect.
I smiled and pulled some energy to my arm. Turning around, I punched a hole, one of my Cold Warp Gates. This was a cold one because I was going to another world. The cold ones always meant that something was different where I was going; the 'warm' ones meant I was going to town or something...
"Hey, wait! Can't I come?" I looked back to her as I put my air helmet on, she looked worried. And I don't blame her, I'm not usually this held back.
"Sorry, no. This is something I have to do on my own." Locking the helmet, I decided it was now or never and jumped in.
The emptiness of the portal seemed different this time. Somehow, it didn't seem to end. Even when I came to the other end, I found it hard to tell the difference between the emptiness of the portal, and the emptiness of the world.
It was just like I had always feared, but it was worse than I, no, ANYONE could have ever imagined!
There was nothing left. In every direction possible, there was nothing but black. No stars, no planets. As far as I could see or sense, there was no energy. The destruction was so total that even the world of spirits, the realm of the Kais, was empty... no Kais, no planets, not even a single lingering soul.
Them emptiness was so complete, so total, so entirely empty, that I couldn't find any kind of reason for it. I couldn't even find the strength in myself to keep going.
Overwhelmed, I broke into tears over the lost memory of those people.
'Everything is gone.' My thoughts returned to that world. 'My family, my friends, my entire world! All gone!'
It was then that I heard that voice in my head. {Wonderful work! Wouldn't you say?} Turning frantically, I turned to find the source of that menacing voice in my head, above me, I found him.
'Kinkilla!!'
{Yes! I must say that it is rather impressive! Even for me!}
{What did you do!?}
{Oh, nothing truly important. I simply destroyed the energy the dimension needs to support itself!} His mocking gaze reminded me of how truly superior he was, and how much I hated it. {I recognize your energy. You're from this dimension, aren't you?}
I nodded, forcing the lump in my throat to go back from where it came from, and fought the urge to punch him in the face. 'You're not strong enough yet. Just hold on!' I told myself this over and over.
Kinkilla laughed inaudibly, relishing the silence that having no air gave. {HA! Well then have fun! I think I'll just leave you to think about this! I've got worlds to destroy! HAHAHAHA!!!}
Without moving, and too shocked to think of anything to say, I only watched as Kinkilla created his own wormhole and disappeared.
Slowly, I could feel the blood rush to my face as several emotions came rushing in to replace the shock. 'How could he!? How can ANYONE be so HEARTLESS?!?!?!' In my pure, unaltered, and unrestricted fury, I powered up farther than I ever had before. 'KINKILLA!! I'LL KILL YOU!!! IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO!!! I SWEAR IT!!!' I could see and feel the power surge through me.
And in one last blinding flash of light, I was changed forever.
My power was incredible to me, but in no way foreign. Somehow, it seemed to be a part of me. I had never seen it before, or sensed it, or would have ever guessed it was there. But I somehow felt as if it had always been there, waiting. Waiting for me to find the reason to bring it to the surface.
Still in my rage, I tested my power by sending various blasts in all directions. As I got out some aggression by pointlessly using up my energy, I finally found it in me to calm down.
But my tears told me I wasn't yet totally in control.
It took another hour for me to cry myself dry. And during that time I found myself thinking about my old world. About my family, about my friends, and all those innocent people. Those billions of people on Earth alone, and all the other people on all the other planets. And all the souls in the world of the dead. I had brought him to my world, and the only reason he spared me was because I had angered him. But my world was only one of billions, right?
Then I thought of an even more terrifying thought, and it angered me and scared me in an even greater way.
I realized that my world, my universe was nothing to him. I had slipped his mind as soon as I was out of his sight. But to him, mine was only one of who knows how many he had destroyed. More than just my world, he had killed, murdered, and destroyed far more than just my world. The ease with which he had left was testament to that; he obviously had a lot of practice hopping from dimension to dimension. But why was he still there? Maybe he was waiting for me? Or he could tell that I was coming and came to intercept me.
Most likely, he had stuck around, because I had decided to get there not long after I had left. But how could I be sure? Did he really know who I was? How could he? Or perhaps he just felt an energy suddenly appear and checked it out? Yeah, that was probably it. Just that. 'Man, if I don't slow down, I'm going to confuse myself.'
After I calmed down, I had a chance to look myself over. Blinking the water out of my eyes, I powered up enough to glow and got a glimpse of myself in the glass of my helmet, which, I'm sure, was only just barely holding up.
Besides looking tired and drained, I could see at least one other change. I never powered down, and I could still see the effect it had on me.
If I had ever had any doubt about being Saiyan, they were wiped away with that. I was no Super Saiyan. My eyes, my hair, even my aura was a deep, yet bright brown.
Well, that was unheard of, yet, it still seemed, and felt natural. I didn't have the increased urge for carnage that came with the Super Saiyans. And, the power still seemed to give me a heightened sense of, well, everything! I'm not sure why, but I knew that I was stronger, but I felt almost exactly the same.
"What is this power? I can't be Saiyan, so am I still human?" Thoughts of people on Earth came flooding back to me. Was it possible that all humans could also transform?
I knew of a way to make sure. If I could get Jennifer to do it, that would prove it. And she wasn't too far behind me then. (100x gravity could have that effect on people.)
But what would that make me if she couldn't? I would never know until I found someone who could. But if she could, that would be incredible! It would prove humans weren't as helpless as it seemed they were. It would prove that they really could take care of themselves!
True, for humans, it seemed that it was their intelligence that was their redeeming quality. That their ability to build things such as force fields, ki-dampers (I had some installed in the training room), and even high-force gravity generators. Even the Androids were testament to the ingenuity of the human mind.
But now, with the addition of this incredible power, with the ability to be on par with even the Saiyans. The possibilities were endless.
The Saiyans had always been so barbaric, never having had need of much intelligence with their raw strength. Even when they fought the other race that once inhabited their planet, they simply used raw power to overcome the advanced technology of their foes.
But with intelligence AND power...
The human race really shouldn't be underestimated.
I decided I had better go back. 'Nothing left here. Not even memories.' So I opened a warp portal and glided through.
Once again, I traveled through the emptiness that was my portal back to the world I had come to know pretty well.
I came out of the empty space and saw Jennifer waiting for me. Somehow I knew that she would. But I didn't want to talk about it yet.
Seeing her confusion I remembered that I hadn't yet powered down, so I did so and walked quietly out of the room.
'I won't lose this world like I lost mine. No matter what happens, I would die before I lose this world and the people in it.' I promised myself to keep getting stronger so that I could make a difference.
And I would need to stay strong, because I was at the right age.
Cell would be coming soon...
My eleventh birthday was only weeks away, and that meant it was the same for Gohan.
And I remembered that Cell appeared when Gohan was at just that age.
'Cell. I feel sorry for him if he comes here.' I smiled as I lay in bed, alone. I knew that my power could easily match his before he achieved perfection.
Maybe I could even hold my ground after? No, that wasn't my place.
I just have to stay hidden and not get in the Z-fighter's way.
~~~~~~*** End of Chapter 14 ***~~~~~~
Sorry, it isn't too short, is it? I just needed to make that experience the primary focus of the chapter. I said that she would have problems of her own, didn't I? And now she's even more determined to stop that villain!
Alex: YEAH!!! HAHA! I ROCK!!
Alex Ultra: Did you get into the sugar again?
Alex: Um, no? [Hides the cookie jar behind back.]
Alex Ultra: Okay, I came prepared this time!
Alex: What do you mea... [Falls asleep]
Alex Ultra: Hehe, super powerful tranquilizers. She won't be destroying Detroit today!
Locke: But what about tomorrow? You know how she gets...
Alex Ultra: ... uh. I'm gonna need more tranquilizers...
Nayana: Are you sure? Can't you hold her?
Alex Ultra: Not yet. Not yet... [Evil snicker]
[An android girl walks in, looking like any other girl.] Psuda: Perverted thoughts not included.
Alex Ultra: Ah, to be surrounded by all my characters...
Locke: All?
Nayana: Yeah! Where's Kanoovf?
Psuda: Who?
[In walks an orange man.] Kanoovf: Me.
Psuda: Wow! So you're a character too?
Alex Ultra: Where have you been?
Kanoovf: I was checking the steaks. I think they're almost done.
Alex Ultra: Oh! [Begins hopping around using only his feet while shouting incoherently.]
Psuda: Say hello to Crazed Author 1.0!
Alex Ultra: [Still hopping stiff-kneed] Yeah! I love doing this! And I haven't even had caffeine!
Locke: [Sighs] Why must I be stuck with this lunatic?
Psuda: I can't believe I was created by this maniac!
Nayana: That looks fun!
Alex: [Awakened by the bouncing] Hey! I wanna spaz out too! [Begins hopping alongside Alex Ultra and Nayana]
Alex Ultra: Ha! I'm not so boring NOW am I!?!?
The Others: [Watch on as those three hop around like idiots. Two cat-girls and one guy in Goth wear with an extra-large sword.]
Psuda: [Shrugs] Why not? [Joins in.]
Locke: I'm going... somewhere...
Kanoovf: Me too.
Ah, to be surrounded by all my characters! All the ones that matter anyway. So while I try to calm down, why don't you review? Maybe if I get asked, I can describe some of my characters for you fine people!
Till then,
