A/N: hey everybody. Well ok I didn't get as many reviews as I had hoped for the second chapter but that's ok it was close enough. Maybe this time I'll get more if I don't...either I need to make changes or I'll wait. Read and review please I would like either four or five.

Strangers

Goku looked towards the great, dark clouds that were in their direction. He could already smell the damp water-filled air. He was praying they didn't get caught in the middle of a huge storm especially since the second dragonball was right in the middle of it.

Chichi was shivering in gokus arms. The air, although filled with dampness, was very cold. Goku tried to warm her by running his hands up and down her arms but it didn't seem to be working. Nimbus stopped just outside of the huge cloud.

Goku sighed in frustration; as lighting struck further along the way, thunder clasping not to long afterwards.

"Goku are we going in there," chichi asked trying to keep warm with gokus body heat.

Goku looked down at her "we have to in order to get the dragonball," goku spoke quietly

Chichi groaned and buried her head in gokus chest "we need some blankets, or maybe a rain jacket...im cold"

"I know" goku spoke "look over there that looks like a village maybe they have something" goku pointed to a small dot further down under the clouds.

"How can you tell all I see is gray trees, gray clouds, no offense nimbus,"

Suddenly thunder clasped loudly shaking through chichi and goku. Rain sputtered down hard soaking chichi and goku instantly.

Goku gave out a grunt "great just great...I DON'T SUPPOSE YOU COULD MAKE THIS ANY MORE DIFFICULT" goku shouted at the sky shaking his fist.

"Nimbus hurry and take us over to that village...fast" goku held chichi tightly as everything became a blur along with the rain as nimbus sped to the village.

Just as chichi and goku got off, of nimbus, a tree near by was struck by lighting. It started to fall towards the village and goku. Chichi screamed and ran for cover while goku caught the tree. He pushed the tree down to the other side and ran after chichi into a small building.

As they entered the building the door rang a bell. Chichi ringed her hair letting water fall to the ground. Goku looked around and sneezed. He sniffled and looked at chichi "dusty...I don't think anyone's been here in a while"

Chichi looked up and around. "I think you may be right," she said slowly while she starred at water dripping through the ceiling. "This place looks like it could've been a department store," she said looking up.

"Yes...but long since out of business" goku replied, "nothings left except for these closing signs"

Goku and chichi looked at each other. Goku suddenly stiffened "did you hear that" he asked suddenly

"Hear what" chichi said getting closer to goku.

Goku quickly turned around and looked out the window. His eyes met something covered in black shadow. He stared at it a moment. When nothing happened and when it didn't move he grabbed chichi "stay close" he said slowly taking a step forward.

Suddenly the black figured moved to the side. Goku stopped and just as he was about to take another step chichi screamed startling goku. He quickly turned around and before he could put up his guard he was smashed through a wood wall and outside to the cold, wet, and muddy ground. He quickly pushed himself up rubbing his eyes. He stood and just as he was about to run back inside a black figure beside him smacked him in the face scrapping his eyes.

He screamed as he fell backwards. What ever had been smacked into his face burned terribly and had gotten into his eyes. Thick, warm liquid filled his hands and he couldn't open his eyes anymore than a slit. He couldn't see anything even when he did get them open. He quickly scrambled to his feet and tried desperately to follow any sound but all her heard was water and his thumping heart.

He listened carefully and side stepped when he heard splashing mud and water behind him. He thought he had dodged whatever was coming at him but instead two things tackled him to the ground. His face splashed into the cold, wet mud and as he tried to get to his knees a sickening crack was heard from the side. Before he could get to safety a tree smashed him back into the ground knocking the wind out of him and cracking a few ribs.

Goku again had his face in the mud. He lifted his face up gasping trying to get his breath back and ignore the sudden sharp pain in his chest. He let his head fall to the ground muffling half the sound in the area. He heard footsteps approach him. He felt cold hand touch his head and then his neck. He heard chichi scream and that was the last he heard.

Chichi struggled to break free from the figure that held her. She kicked and screamed trying to get free to help her husband.

"Halt, halt" came a feminine voice from behind her "we wish not to harm you please halt your struggling"

"You don't want to hurt us sure what about my husband he might be blind for all I know and a tree fell on him, not to mention the angle you people set his head in...for your information heads don't bend that way!" chichi shouted angrily

The two black figures that had fought goku walked into the sheltered building. They wore tattered old clothes as if they were from the medieval ages. They were both men. Chichi's breath caught in her throat as she watched the men take their hoods off to reveal wolf like heads. She stared wide-eyed and stopped struggling.

"Let her be Marlene" spoke one of the men

The woman that held her let her go and stepped back. Chichi slowly turned and gazed about a womanish wolf wearing a fine medieval like blue dress. Chichi turned back to the men and fell to her knees.

"I think im going to be sick" chichi said.
