Chapter Ten:
"You guys what just happened? That's all I ask." Kinto said.
"As if I know," Ryo shrugged. "I just want to know where we are."
"All I remember is standing in the wet, cold rain while some woman talked about taking us somewhere dry." Sai commented.
"Well, I have to admit it is nice to be warm again." Sage replied.
"I don't see her anywhere. And if she wanted to fight us why here?" Rowan asked. "This doesn't look like any part of the Netherworld that I've ever seen."
"I'm not getting any bad vibes. This place looks sort of like a temple." Sai said.
"Don't let yourselves be fooled." Ryo said sharply. "This could just be eye candy conjured by the Netherworld."
If there was one thing Ryo had learned throughout his battles fighting the Dynasty, nothing was what it seemed. He and he friends had learned that time and time again whenever they fought the Dynasty warlords. Everything in the Netherworld was based on illusion, fueled by evil desires, misery, and the darkest parts of the human soul. Talpa manipulated their fears, their doubts in themselves, and used it against them. The evil, treacherous demon used whatever darkness it could to taint and corrupt the virtue in any decent being.
While he promised to grant you your every wish and desire he masked his true intentions. Many thought that they had found what they were looking for by serving him, but what they had really found was darkness. Whether it be greed, lust for power, hate, sorrow, it is the accumulation of such emotions that cause the woe and suffering of mankind. That's just what a soul-less demon like Talpa fed on.
"But Talpa's dead. We saw it with our own eyes, Ryo. The armor of inferno destroyed him." Sai said.
"We shut him down permanently." Kinto added. He truly believed in his heart that Talpa was dead and that there just was no way that he could have come back.
"This just feels different. I don't think Talpa is behind this. I remember the girl saying that she wasn't trying to hurt us." Rowan said.
Ryo refused to relent.
"How can you be so naïve? Have none you learned anything from our battles against Talpa?"
"Naïve? You weren't the only one who had to face Talpa. We all fought him. None of us have forgotten. We all remember very well the kind of tricks the Dynasty likes to play." Rowan responded angrily.
Ryo could be very stubborn and impatient, making him quick to assume and make rash judgements. Rowan thought that maybe it was his fiery and passionate nature that made it so that he alone could wear the white armor, but sometimes it was this very same nature that made Ryo hard to deal with. Rowan, himself, being more cool, collected, and logical. At this moment Ryo didn't want to think about any other possible reasons for their predicament.
"I think we can only wait to find out what her true intentions are." Sage said staring at the both of them with his piercing gaze. He wanted the two of them to calm down. Getting angry and fighting wasn't going to help anyone.
"Look at the others around us. Who do you think they are?" Sai asked.
They all had noticed the three groups of individuals. Up until now each group had eyed one another suspiciously. Though they all seemed more concerned with just getting their bearings and trying to grasp how they had suddenly appeared in their current location.
"I don't know, but they all appear to be in the same boat as the rest of us." Rowan said. "But we should be careful and ready for anything."
"I have to say one thing. If this is a Netherworld illusion," Kinto said staring at the girls in the sailor skirts and the ones in the school uniforms, "then I'm loving it."
*******
Gohan turned to face the piercing gaze he felt pressing into his back. He saw it was coming from a girl with long blond pigtails. He smiled at her. She looked surprised, but smiled back. Then suddenly she looked scared and turned away.
Gohan wondered what was wrong, but realized that Piccolo was standing right behind him. The tall Namek was looking out of the corner of his eye and staring in the direction of the girl.
"I think you frightened her, Piccolo." Gohan chuckled.
Piccolo only grunted and then turned away.
Gohan continued to look around at the others in the room beside himself and his friends.
"I wonder who all these other people are and what they're doing here?" he asked.
"Are those cheerleading uniforms?" Yamucha said staring at the girls in the sailor skirts.
"Pretty cute cheerleaders. Don't you think?" Krillin said staring in the same direction. Then suddenly the tallest one in the group returned his stare. Krillin made a slight jump. The look she had given him reminded him of the same cold look he had seen Android 18 make so many times.
"That one with the short blonde hair looks pretty ticked off that you're looking over there." Yamucha commented.
Krillin quickly averted his eyes and then looked at the second group of girls in the school uniforms. They stared back at him blankly.
"Man, Krillin you really don't have any luck with girls." Yamucha laughed.
"Watch this," he said. Yamucha turned and looked at two of the girls dressed in the cheerleading uniforms from the first group. One was dressed in green and white with a pink bow, while the other in blue and white with a light blue bow on her chest. He smiled at them and they both blushed.
"See. That's how it's done." Yamucha told him.
Krillin shrugged sheepishly.
Tien was looking at the young guys in the multi-colored armor.
Hmm, I wonder who they are? They look like warriors, he thought. They looked rather serious, except for the guy in the orange.
Piccolo and Vegeta seemed uninterested in any of the surrounding groups.
"So, you guys where do you think we are?" Yamucha asked. He placed both hands on his hips as he looked around the room.
"Whew! This place is huge," he said.
"Well, the good news is we're not dead. None us are wearing halos." Tien announced.
"If we're not in the otherworld then where are we?" Krillin asked coolly. Inside he was doing leaps of joys. He was happy to still be alive, but if they had turned out to be dead he had to say that would been the most painless death he had ever had.
Vegeta shifted around. His eyes were scanning the room. He looked more agitated then usual. He did not like having a grasp on his situation and it made him antsy. The feeling of not being in control made him furious. He didn't know where his was and he didn't know who had brought him here.
"Vegeta, looks ready to snap." Krillin whispered to Trunks.
Trunks felt just as anxious as his father did. He could identify with his feelings of powerlessness. Maybe it was the Saiyan blood that coursed through his veins that told him to spring into action or maybe it was because he had been a warrior who had survived mostly by running. For too long in his own life had he felt helpless. It was the most frustrating and horrible feeling that he had ever felt next to loss and grief. It was a feeling that he had lived with for the first 18 years of his life, as he watched the two heartless mechanical creations of Dr. Gero destroy his world. He did try to fight them, but his attempts and sacrifices always felt as if they'd been spent in vain.
Then when his mother created the time machine he knew that he now had hope. That maybe he now had a chance to go back and make things change for the better. The trips to the past had proven to be successful, but not in the way that he had expected. He felt disheartened when he had first found out that nothing he did in the past could ever change the outcome in his world, due to some kind of law of the time continuum. Instead he ended up gaining a piece of himself that he thought he'd lost. He learned about the true spirit of a warrior and what it really meant to fight to the very end. He had learned a lot from the friends that he never had been given a chance to know while growing up. They had inspired him to go back and take back what rightfully his. His home.
"That woman brought us here. The one that Gohan rescued. I think that she saved us." Trunks said thoughtfully.
"Saved us? What are you talking about, boy?" Vegeta asked. It was the first time that he had spoken since they had been there.
"Well, those two guys that appeared in front of us. They were really strong. Stronger than all of us." he said. It was hard for him to say that. Especially after witnessing the strength that Gohan had displayed during the battle with Cell. He didn't think it possible for there to ever again be other beings that could be stronger than a Super Saiyan at level two.
"Yeah. They were really strong. That one guy he did something so that we couldn't move. Who knows what would have happened if we hadn't appeared here." Gohan said.
"That's exactly what I'm talking about! Why are we here? We should still be battling with those barbarians. I don't like tricks and whoever has pulled this is going to answer to me!" Vegeta flared.
"You hear me! Whoever you are! Show yourself! You brought us here for a reason! Now come out!" Vegeta yelled.
His voice echoed and bounced off the walls of the spacious room. The other surrounding groups turned to look at them and then began to look about the room. They too were waiting for a response.
**********
"I think we've given them enough time to get settled. They're all starting to become restless." Utori said to Kala.
"Yes, I think it is time that we give them the answers that they are looking for." Kala said in a gravely manner.
"How are you feeling?" Kala asked Utori. Her tone had changed to one of concern.
"I'm fine. That healing elixir worked well." Utori answered.
"Alright. Then let us proceed and go greet our guests." Kala said returning back to the matter at hand.
They walked forward from the invisible space that Kala had created to observe the warriors from.
