Chapter Eleven:
Michelle stared at the man with the spiked black hair. It stood straight up in the air from root to end. His brow was furrowed in anger. The veins in his neck popped out as he screamed out angry curses and obscenities, amplified by the hollow cavern like walls of the room.
"Charming approach." Michelle said dryly.
"Crude. But it looks like it was effective." Hamara commented. She stood with her arms crossed over her chest. Her face was emotionless.
All four groups diverted their eyes to stare at the bright light that had suddenly erupted at the front of the room. They all squinted their eyes as the light became more brilliant. Out of nowhere a wide staircase that led to a throne on a high-rise platform appeared. As the light began to dim they saw two figures walk down the stairs and then stop just before they reached the bottom. If they had kept walking they would have walked straight off the edge, which lead to a bottomless drop.
Hikaru gasped as she realized that the two figures were women.
"The woman in green. That's her." Fuu whispered.
They could finally see her face clearly. She was much younger than previously thought. She looked about seventeen or sixteen years of age. She had wavy black hair that went just past her shoulders, which framed an oval-shaped face. Her features were more exotic though. She had full lips on a heart shape mouth. Her almond-shaped eyes were a bright golden brown color. They were the most startling amongst her features.
'The hood she wore over her head when we first saw her must have hidden her eyes. They seemed much darker before,' Fuu thought in surprise.
The young girl wore the same green cloak. The translucent material revealed only the outline of her feminine form. On her brow she wore an upside down gold triangle. Two small chains on both sides of the triangle tied to the back of her head holding it in place. The triangle seemed to have some type of complex design engraved on it, but Fuu was not close enough to see it clearly.
Not bad, thought Yamcha. The young girl was rather beautiful.
"Way better looking than the snake lady," he said aloud without realizing it.
"Huh?" Krillin said looking at his friend quizzically. Then seeing the opportunity for a little taunting he grinned.
"You really are a horndog, Yamcha and you say I'm hard up for a date. Let's just try sticking with own species, okay?"
"Man, I don't know what you're talking about," Yamcha said embarrassed.
Serena turned to take in the details of the woman that stood next to the young girl. The woman was taller than the girl by almost a full head. She was young, but still older than the girl by quite a few years. She had long light brown hair that seemed to have a slight red coppery tint to it. It cascaded down her back freely and reached a little ways beyond her waist. Over her right shoulder hung a long thick braid. Her gray eyes seemed to shine and reflect light giving them a silver metallic quality.
Umi thought that she looked rather Chiezetan, like her friends Tarta and Tatra, with her bronze complexion. In her hands she clasped a long scepter that glowed a bright light. She wore a long purple gown with a silver sash. A long slit in front of the dress revealed one of her legs up to the thigh. Instead of a tiara like the younger girl, she bared golden triangle symbol on her forehead, but of a different design.
'Who is she?' thought Ryo. The rest of his friends were also staring at the two strange women. They were wondering the same thing.
'I wonder if the girl brought us here to see this other woman?' Trunks pondered to himself.
The older woman seemed to carry an air of authority. Despite her young appearance, he could tell that her eyes held years of wisdom. Then he remembered what the young girl had said to the serpent woman when they were battling. She had said that her quest to find the chosen ones was over.
'Are we the chosen ones?' he thought.
"Hmmph! Its about blasted time!" Vegeta growled angrily. He was not the least bit impressed by the flashy entrance. He glowered at the two women.
"If we're done with the light show, then you both will answer my questions right now." He commanded.
The young girl clad in green frowned at Vegeta's insolence, but his comment was the trigger for releasing a floodgate of questions. Each one coming from different directions.
"Why did you bring us here?" shouted Ryo. His blue eyes flashed with anger from underneath his long black bangs.
"No, no." Serena interrupted. "First all where did you bring us?"
"And who are you?" questioned Fuu. Her large owl-like eyes sat behind the frame of glasses. She stared back and forth at both women with scrutiny.
They all waited for either two women to speak.
"My name is Kala. This is my apprentice Utori." Said the woman in purple. Her voice seemed to have an ethereal quality to it.
"Yeah, we've met." Hamara said icily glaring at Utori.
"Hey, what's your problem? Are you two some kind of psycho weirdoes? You can't just go around kidnapping people!" Mina said.
Utori raised an eyebrow slightly at the girl's comment.
"First and foremost, we mean you no harm. I'm sorry that all of you were taken so suddenly from your homes without explanation. I was a bit pressed for time." Utori answered looking about the room. Despite her comment she still received looks of skepticism.
"Why did you bring us here? Well, where ever here is." Hikaru asked as her eyes searched the room. She looked over the edge of the plateau that she, Fuu, and Umi stood on. She couldn't see the bottom. It seemed endless.
"You are the Champions of Fate, chosen by Fate herself." answered Utori. She stated it in a matter of fact tone.
All of the kidnapped warriors stared at the young girl in disbelief. A few looked about ready to burst out into laughter. Surely she had to be joking stating such an outrageous and ridiculous explanation. Utori stared back them solemn faced with unblinking eyes. She was dead serious.
"Champions of Fate?" Vegeta scoffed.
"Now there's a sound and logical explanation." Krillin commented.
Yamcha and Tien smirked. Piccolo's face remained stony as he stood firm with his arms crossed over his chest. Gohan and Trunks seemed interested in what the girl had said, but remained cautious. The whole situation still seemed too strange.
"What are you talking about?" Vegeta spat.
The woman in purple answered.
"As I said before, my name is Kala. I am the guardian of Time and Dimensions. You stand right now in the sacred realm of the Chrono Prism. Only those chosen warriors of Fate and one who guards the Chrono Prism may enter this realm. You were all summoned here because you are needed to collect the three mystical gems of time. Thus, at the same time protect all existence."
"Protect all existence?" Umi asked.
"At this moment a great evil threatens the stability of not only your own worlds, but that of all dimensions.
This great evil that I speak of is a man named Daisan."
"Daisan? Who is that?" called out Raye.
"What are these gems that you talk about?" called another unidentifiable voice.
Kala sighed. The meeting wasn't going well. The disoriented warriors kept asking questions, but the answers Kala gave only seemed to make them even more distrustful and suspicious. She decided the only way to answer their questions fully and gain their trust was to show them.
"I will start from the very beginning, but I think the best way to answer all of your questions is to show you." Kala answered.
As soon as she said this she noticed guarded stances and stiffened postures from many of warriors.
"I mean only to present you with images of past events." Kala said.
Each group turned within themselves.
"I don't like this." Krillin said to his friends.
"Yeah, I don't know guys." Yamcha agreed. He seemed a little on edge. The old Yamcha would have jumped at the chance for excitement and adventure, but after having faced death more than once through out the many battles he had fought, he couldn't help but to be more cautious. Being dead sucked.
"Stupid cowardly humans! Shut up! I want to see this. At the very least, this should be amusing." Vegeta said. He now seemed more intrigued by the woman's story. The past year on earth had been relatively boring and perhaps this woman was the answer to that.
"I believe her." Gohan said. "I don't think that she is going to hurt us or anything."
"As if she could." Vegeta sneered. He didn't feel he had anything to fear from either two women, despite the fact that both possessed rather strong life forces.
"I, for one, would like hear her story." Trunks said.
"What do you think, Piccolo?" Gohan asked.
"I think we should see what she has to say. But we should all be on guard." Piccolo answered in his gruff manner.
"No body ever listens to me." Krillin mumbled to himself. Gohan nodded toward the woman to let her know that they would like to see what she had to show them.

"I'm up for a slide show." Kinto said.
"The girl brought us here for a reason. Although her actions are questionable, she has remained true to her word. She hasn't tried to hurt us." Sage reasoned.
"I say we see what she's talking about." Rowan said nodding.
"It can't be any crazier than any of the other stuff we've seen." Sai said shrugging.
Ryo eyed the two mysterious women in purple and green. The younger girl seemed anxious as if she were in a hurry to go somewhere and growing more impatient with all of the chattering amongst the groups.
"Alright just be ready for anything." Ryo cautioned. Then he turned and signaled to Kala their compliance.

Hotaru stared at the woman in the beautiful purple gown. Her fellow scouts were busy discussing amongst themselves, but she had remained quiet. She was filled with many questions. She hoped that the woman would be able to answer them.
"I have to admit that her story does sound farfetched," Ami said, "but I think we'll be able to make more sense of what she's saying if we just let her show us."
"Yeah, it does sound incredible," Mina agreed, "but she's caught my interest."
"Hold on a second." Lita interrupted. The rest of the senshi looked in her direction.
"She said that she was the guardian of time and dimension. I thought that you were the guardian of time, Trista?"
"I am. Well, at least I was." Trista answered. After Trista had manipulated time, during the battle against Mistress Nine to save Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune, she had lost her role as time guardian. She now lived in Tokyo and tried to lead a normal life.
"See then. That proves that she is not who she says she is. This is some type of trick--" Hamara began, but was interrupted by Trista.
"It doesn't mean that she isn't who she says she is. There are many gates of time. I'm not the only guardian. In our world I was the guardian of our time line. I have heard of a great crystal that is responsible for the flow of time and the stability of dimensions. I think there may be truth to what she is saying and I am inclined to believe her."
"Are you sure, Trista?" asked Michelle.
"Yes," she nodded.
"Alright then. Then it's settled. We'll let her continue with her story." Serena said. She turned to look at Kala and gave her the cue to go on.
Serena had listened to what her friends had had to say, but she personally believed everything that the woman had told them so far. She seemed honest and her eyes pleaded with them to just hear her out. Raye looked at Serena. Then leaned over and whispered.
"I think that she is sincere, Serena. I don't sense any negative intentions from her."
"Yeah, I think that we can trust her." Serena said.
********
"Well we're the last ones." Umi said to her friends.
"I have no problems. I want to hear what she has to say. I say yes." Hikaru said fearlessly. She was more curious than fearful at the moment.
"She said a great evil was threatening our world. I don't think that we have any other choice. We need to know more about what we're facing." Fuu answered.
"Yeah, I agree." Umi replied back. "Let's get on with it."
Hikaru looked at the woman letting her know that she could proceed.
