Chapter 9- Master Rochi's
The trio had run inside of Capsule Crop., so that Trunks and Goten can take a shower and get changed.
"Hey you guys, I going to run to my house, so that I can get changed and grab my bathing suit, Okay?"
"Sure, that's fine with me," Goten said.
"I'll meet you guys at the corner," said Katrina, and she ran out the door.
Man, I learned a lot in that little fight with Goten. He really is nice and cute. Wait until my friends hear about him. She ran to her house and went up stairs to her room, took a shower and got changed.
"Hey Kat! Where are you going?" a voice said at the bottom of the stairs.
"Oh, hey Vesta…! I didn't know that you were here."
"Yeah, well I left something here so I came to pick it up. You didn't answer my question."
"I'm going to the beach. See ya, gotta go." Katrina ran out the door before Vesta could question her any more. "Few, I thought that I wouldn't be able to go."
"Katrina, has a lot more tricks up her sleeve than I thought," Goten said putting on one of Trunks shirts.
"Yeah, I think that your right, but I don't think that she used all of them yet," Trunks replied, who was also putting on a shirt. "Well, I ready, how about you?"
"Yeap, hey, do you have a pair of trunks that I can borrow?"
"Here, I think that these should fit," Trunks said and threw Goten a pair of black, swim trunks.
"Thanks." Goten took the trunks and put it into a towel.
"I think that we should go, now." The two were off to the corner. On the way out the door, they ran into Katrina. She was caring a small bag. They flew to Master Rochi's.
"Hey, I forgot to mention this, when you meet our family there is a few thing that you should know about," Goten said.
"Yeah, especially my dad, his name is Vegeta, you don't want to be on this bad side. My mom, her name is Bulma, she's nice and she'll protect you from my dad if he does anything. She's the only one he doesn't fight with except for my sister. Let's see who else will be there?"
"My parents. My dad, he's Goku, watch out for his appetite."
"Why, is it like yours?" joked Katrina.
"Ha, ha, actually, it's a little bit worst, he's a full Saiyan. So is Vegeta. My mom's name is Chi-chi. She'll probably ask a few questions, don't worry I'll get you out of it. I think Krillin and 18 will be there, and Marron their daughter."
"Hey, isn't everyone there?"
"Come to think of it, I think you're right. We'll introduce all of them to you when we get there."
"Oh, you don't have to. If you don't mind… I can find out for myself," Katrina said stopping in front of the two.
"How?!" Trunks asked.
"Well, you know the powers my mom was telling me?" The two nodded their heads. "Well, one of them is finding out stuff on people from another person. So, do you mind if I find out, it will be a lot faster?"
"You won't read the rest of our minds?" Goten asked.
"No, I can't, well, I can, but that's only in battle, and I just want to find out about your family and friends. Just trust me, any ways, I think that you'll know what I'm reading. It's just like I'm making a copy of the information, then I'll take the copy for myself."
"How come we didn't when you were fighting us?" Goten added.
"That's another type of reading. Okay, can I copy or not?" Goten looked at Trunks and Trunks looked back at Goten and shrugged.
"Okay," they both said.
"I promise this isn't going to hurt, it'll just feel like you'll know everyone twice. I can only copy one at a time, I think. Trunks can be first then Goten. Now, Trunks, I need you to relax and think of everyone. What they look like, how they act and so on." Katrina placed her hand on his forehead and closed her eyes. A little flash came from her palm, and she opened her eyes. "Okay, Goten, your turn. Can you do the same thing?" She did the same thing to Goten as she did to Trunks. "There now did that hurt?" she questioned like she was talking to a baby. "As you thought, I didn't copy any thing else."
"Yeah, yeah," Goten said.
"Where is your bathing suit? You're going swimming right?" Trunks questioned.
"Right, here." Katrina waved her hand in front of her then snapped her fingers and her outfit changed into a bathing suit. "See." She snapped her fingers again then her cloths changed back.
"Wow, let me guess, that's another one of your new powers?"
"How, did you know? Nameck's and Humaik's are almost the same. We are girls of course, and we can transform into humans, but Nameck's can't. Also, we have the same powers but a little more mental powers."
"Oh, okay, that's a little more complicated than I thought," Goten joked.
It was about one thirty when they got to the island. Master Rochi was ether trying to watch the women getting changed or reading his 'magazines' joined with Oolong. Goku and Gohan were trying to get a volleyball game started, with Bra trying to get her dad to play. Krillin, 18, Tien, and Yamcha all ready were dragged into the game. Chaozu was sitting out of the game. Videl had volunteered to watch the girls, with Puar.
"Hey Vegeta, do you want to play volleyball with us?" questioned Goku. "You'll be able to use your powers."
"NO," replied Vegeta.
"Daddy, please would you play with us?" a little girl, who seems to be about five, had said tugging on her father's shirt. He looked down at the girl's wide, sad eyes, then looked up at Goku who also had sad, wide eyes.
"Fine, I'll play… but you promise that we can use powers, Kakarott?" Vegeta said picking up the little girl.
"Um, sure," Goku said rubbing his head.
"Hey, everyone, we would like you to meet someone," Goten's voice said. Everyone had stopped what they were doing and turned toward the voice. "Everyone, this is Katrina, Katrina this is everyone."
"You can just call me Kat, that's okay," Katrina said extending her hand toward the first person she saw turned toward her, which was Bulma.
"Hi, I'm Bulma. Over there is my husband Vegeta, and my youngest daughter Bra. Near the water, is Krillin and 18 with their daughter Marron."
"Yes, I know, Trunks and Goten briefed me on the way here," she said politely.
"Well, I hope that they didn't say any thing bad about us, now, did they?" Bulma joked.
"No, they didn't." Of coarse she was lying a little.
"That's good. Well, how did you meet Trunks and Goten?"
"Well, I met them about five years ago, at the hospital. About a week ago, I fainted in front of your house, and Danny, another friend, brought me to your house, so this morning I… well they ran into me on the way to the movies."
"That's nice. Are you going to stay?"
"Yeah, my mom said that it was okay."
"Do you wan to get changed? The bathroom is the third door on the right." Bulma pointed right behind Katrina to the house.
"Thank you." She was off. When she came back, Goten and Trunks had joined in the volleyball game that had started, and were in their bathing suit. "Hey, can I join?"
It was Goten, Trunks, Goku, and 18 on one team and Vegeta, Krillin, Tein, Yamcha, and Gohan were on the other team. Goten blushed when he saw Katrina, she was wearing a navy blue, one-piece suit, with a pair of shorts over. Goten was wearing a pair of black swimming trunks and Trunks was wearing a pair of blue swimming trunks.
Wow, she's cuter than I thought, Goten thought.
"Sure, you can join us. You can be on my team, we're one man short," Goten said. They had played for about an hour and Goten's team was winning. "Hey, were you… ah?" Goten whispered.
"No, do you really think that I'll do that?" Katrina said. "Any ways, Vegeta and everyone else was using their powers."
"They were?!" Goten asked pretending not to notice that they were.
"Yeah, it's a small amount, but I definitely felt the rise."
"Oh, you can use your powers. You can fly and put a ki behind your serves and spikes," Trunks butted in.
"Oh," Katrina said shyly. "Well, if we're playing like that. Get ready, boys." Katrina focused her energy to the ball and served the ball over the net. Gohan was about to spike the ball, but the ball had disappeared and reappeared behind him and landed on the sand with a soft thud. "I believe that it's our point," Katrina gloated.
"How did you do that?" Gohan asked.
"My own little secret. I'm sorry we are using powers still, right?" As Katrina said that, everyone but Trunks and Goten were shocked. They never thought that she had powers. "I felt your powers and Trunks said, you were using them, so I thought that I might join you."
"Yeah, we were, but that was before you joined, we didn't know that you had powers," said Goku.
"Dad, let me explain," Goten said.
"No, that's okay, I can do it faster, remember?" Katrina said. "This wont hurt a bit."
"What, won't?" Vegeta asked and before he can finished, Katrina raised her hand and a light shot to everyone there, except Goten and Trunks.
"There, that does is." Katrina nodded her head with satisfaction. "Um, I'm sorry but I think that there is something wrong?" she said holding her stomach.
"What's wrong? Was that to much for you to do?" Goten asked with concern.
"I don't know, it's not that. It feels like I'm changing."
"Do you think it's what your mom said, about you having to change back every once and a while, and the last time you changed was about three hours ago," Trunks replied. With that, Katrina ran to the bathroom and she calmed herself down and a light-yellow, swirling aura formed around her and she was back to 'normal'.
"There... Now, to be back again." She concentrated and was back to her human self. She went back to the game and everyone was confused.
"What did you just do?" 18 asked.
"I just had to transform back to normal."
"Okay, what ever you say," Gohan said puzzled.
"I think that's time to eat, I'm starving," butted Goku.
"Same here. I wonder if Bulma and Chi-chi have something prepared," Goten added.
"Hey Bulma, what's for lunch?" Goku asked looking around for food.
"Lots of stuff. You just have to help yourself," Chi-chi said placing chicken on the table. "Everyone, lunch is ready."
Everyone had walked over to the table, and then Katrina stopped, she looked at the table and it was covered one end to the other with food; chicken, rice, beans and all sorts of other food. Goku all ready had started to eat.
"Kat, aren't you going to have something to eat?" Bulma said, worried.
"No, I'm fine," Katrina said sipping her water.
***
One hour later, everyone was done.
"Hey Kat, do you want to go swimming?" Goten said.
"Sure, why not. Trunks, you coming?" Katrina asked slipping off her shorts.
"Can we join you guys?" said a little voice behind Katrina. She turned around and noticed that it was Bra, Pan, and Marron.
"Sure," Goten said.
All six of them had gone swimming. Katrina thought that it would be funny if she tried to dunk Goten. She went up behind him and dunked his head. He had struggled for a moment, and then he grabbed her hand and flipped her over his head, right into the water.
"Hey, that wasn't very nice of you to do that," she said after she rose to the surface.
"You started it," he added. Then she darted for the air leaving a trail behind her.
"If you want to play it like that come and get me." She disappeared leaving Goten looking all around for her. Then he darted in the air.
"Hey, if you see her let me know," Goten said down to everyone in the water.
"Sure thing, Goten," Bra said looking around.
Goten tried to sense her ki, but she some how was able to block it. Katrina was able to slip back into the water with out any one noticing. She could stay under water for about two minutes, and she was right underneath Goten. Then she thought that it was long enough, and shot up, at Goten, knocking him into the water.
"Looking for me?" she snickered. Goten started to laugh and flew out of the water and stopped in front of Katrina.
"That was pretty neat what you did, but I thought that you wanted to relax?"
"Yeah, I'm sorry just that I couldn't help it. You were so easy to trick." Katrina's hair was dripping wet and clinging to her back, with a few strains in her face. She was panting a little bit. "What time is it?"
"About four, I think. Why?"
"I just remembered, Reyna told me that my friends made a plan to watch the movie that we were suppose to see this morning, tonight. It starts at five thirty. I have just enough time to take a shower and change. I have to go, bye."
"Wait, aren't you going to say bye to everyone," Trunks asked.
"All ready did," she replied and started to fly off. "Do you two want to join me?"
"Sure, I just have to tell, my parents," Goten said flying to the house.
"Me too," said Trunks following Goten.
"You don't have to, I all ready did. They said yes."
The three left to land.
Chapter 10- At the movies
"Hi you guys, sorry I'm late," Katrina said running up the sidewalk with Goten and Trunks right behind her.
"Hey, that's okay," Rori said looking back at the two boys walking up.
"Did Reyna tell you anything?"
"Tell us what?" Sara said looking at Reyna.
"Oh, nothing," Reyna said.
"Who are these two?" Jane asked. "They aren't that bad looking."
"Jane, shhh, not that loud. I know. This is Trunks and Goten. Trunks, Goten, these are my friends, Jane, Sara, and Rori."
"Hi," said everyone.
"Reyna, I think that you're going to have to ether hide or leave," Katrina said.
"Can't you just…"
"I don't know how long I'll be able to hold it."
"You can just do it until the lights go down," Reyna urged.
"Fine. Okay, are we all ready?"
"Who's paying?" Rori asked.
"I will," Goten offered.
"You don't have to, I'll be happy to pay," Katrina complained.
"No, I insist."
"Then I'll pay for the popcorn and pop."
"Fine," said Goten walking to the ticket booth.
"Fine," said Katrina as she went to the snack stand. The two left everyone dumbfounded.
"What just happened?" asked Jane.
"Don't worry they have been acting like this for a while now," Trunks said following Goten into the movies.
In the movies, Katrina sat next to Goten and Trunks, Reyna sat next to Trunks and Rori, who was seated next to Sara and she sat next to Jane. They had gone to see a scary movie. When there was very scary parts, Katrina would hide her face on Goten's shoulder.
***
"That was a great movie. What did you think Kat?" questioned Jane.
"Yeah, it was good. A little too scary for me."
"Are you all right?" Rori questioned. "Come on, Katrina, scared of a movie. You take marshal arts, and your mom is a doctor."
"Yeah, well that's different," Katrina said.
"Hey, don't start you two," interrupted Sara.
"Start what? We're not starting any thing," insisted Katrina.
"Yeah, what she said," Rori agreed.
"Do they do this all the time?" Goten asked.
"Yes, but it doesn't last that long," Jane said.
"Well, thanks ya'll, I have to go. I'll see you tomorrow at track meeting," Sara replied and she left followed by Rori.
"I have to go to. See you tomorrow," added Rori.
"I'm sorry to do this too, but I have to go too," Jane said leaving.
"Do you have to go too?" Goten questioned.
"Yeah, I should head home, see you tomorrow. Hey Kat, can I come to your track meet?"
"Sure, Trunks, see you," Katrina said watching Trunks fly home. "So are you leaving?"
"I should, I have a long flight, home."
"Why don't you stay at my house?"
"Can I?"
"Sure, why not?" The two flew with Reyna to Katrina's house.
"Sorry about my friends… they can be a little odd some times," Katrina said.
"If you call that odd, then what do you call my friends and family?" Goten asked joking.
"Yeah, I guess you're right. My friends aren't that bad," Katrina said.
