Leiko bolted up breathing heavily and dripping in cold sticky sweat. That
vision of her past that endlessly haunted her sleep. Wasn't it enough
that her father was dead? Did her mind have to constantly remind her as
though she had suddenly forgotten? The female saiyen breathed out shakily
wiping the saltiness from her brow. After gaining her composure she took
in her surroundings... very unfamiliar... it was dark... in a comforting sort of
way... she was lying on a metal table and the smell in the room was that of
an overly cleaned sterilized one. Like in an operating room or a doctor's
office. She wrinkled her nose in distaste and got up. She felt strangely
unbalanced and weak. She leaned on the table for support for a moment and
then cautiously attempted to stand up on her own. With an undignified thud
Leiko fell to the ground. Just above her pelvic bone on the backside of her
was a sharp pain. She reached down to feel it and closed her eyes
swallowing. "They-they cut it off... my tail... MY tail!" Leiko cried out and
banged her fists on the linoleum floor, "I don't care if he is the
prince!!! Never was this allowed on Freeza's planet! Never!" she paused.
Her ears perked up and her nose flared as a familiar yet faint scent met
her nose. Her father was dead... she had already accepted that, but why
could she smell him now? Fear coursed through her veins and her hackles
stood on end. A shiver ran through her body and despite the nauseous
feeling she stood up to the nearest wall and blasted it.
The female saiyen leaned up against the edge of the mutilated wall
breathing heaving and gagging. She cursed the prince and swore to avenge
her amputated appendage.
"Oh my gosh!!! I think she blasted through the wall! Goku hurry!! This way!"
The voices grew urgent and the door opened. A dark haired, dark-eyed extremely muscular man was standing in the doorway. Leiko's eyes became wide and a violent jolt of adrenaline rode through her. With a faltering blast of energy she took off clumsily into the sky. Away... she HAD to get away. Not long after her flying began to get more and more awkward and she began to go into a series of dizzying dives, her energy quickly dissipating in the air.
"damn," she growled as her surrounding began to spin around her, "can't keep this up much longer..." Leiko's vision began to dim and then there was a rather peaceful falling sensation that overtook her...
upon a small island Leiko was placed, being nursed back to health by her father's killer... his brother. The female saiyen stirred in her troubled sleep. Goku sat next to her pondering her existence.... Raditz had a child... how strange... the savior of the earth stood up viewing her trying to decide what to do. Was she like her father? Was she evil?? Should he destroy her? What was it that she was here for? Was she here for the dragonballs? Or was she here to avenge her father's death? And who in the universe was her mother? Leiko's eyes slowly began to open. She tried to get up...
"Easy now... take it slow... you almost drowned." Goku carefully propped her up.
"That's it... here drink this... I thought that taking you back might be a bit too exciting for you..." Leiko came to her senses and spluttered on the water that was being drizzled down her throat. She leapt back and fell back down.
"Who are you?!" she yelled pointing at him. "Why do you smell like my father?!" Goku smiled at her while she continued to point as her mouth tried to make out demands that could not be thought of. "Relax," he said with his palms open in a gesture of friendliness, "I'm Goku... a saiyen... like you. What is your name and why have you come to earth?"
"Answer my questions first and then I'll see about answering yours," Leiko growled.
Goku laughed, "All right then. Like I said, my name is Goku and I happen to Raditz's brother... that's probably why I smell like him." Leiko glared at him. This buffoon was her uncle? Impossible.
"Why is my tail gone?" she spat, "I have a right to know why you have cut it off."
Goku laughed again and answered, "Well, your tail is the source of your power.... Vegeta didn't want to be left out I guess..." he laughed again. Leiko sniffed in disapproval.
"He had no right for it to be removed. Only low-ranking outcasts are subjected to such cruelty."
"Relax," Goku said, "we just don't want you to transform at a full moon that's all... it'll cause a lot of trouble for us and I for one don't want the earth destroyed."
Leiko gave a loud deliberate "hmph" and exclaimed, "Maybe this mud-ball should be destroyed... it's no paradise I can tell you that."
A dark look descended into Goku's eyes, "Hey, I don't want any trouble from you. This planet is my home and I have sworn to protect it. If you so much as kill someone you'll have to deal with me got it?"
Leiko went quiet but continued to glare at him. "Whatever," she huffed, looking away.
Goku's features switched back to friendly, "Well, now that I have answered your questions why don't you answer mine?"
The female saiyen scowled and sighed, "Very well then... my name is Leiko and I have came to earth because I heard something related to my father was here. My ship is broken and so now I'm stuck." Leiko leaned up against a palm tree and stood, "To be honest... I don't know what to do... I guess I'll just try to rebuild my ship with whatever remains of it..." she walked unsteadily to the shore of the island and began to gather energy to fly.
"Wait!" Goku called. Leiko turned,
"Huh?"
"Well, I was wondering, I mean... you must be hungry after traveling all the way over here..."
"Your point?"
"Well..." Goku rubbed the back of his head, "why don't you some along with me and get something to eat... maybe we can get Bulma to build you a new ship... I'm sure she wouldn't mind..." Leiko looked at him hard and stopped gathering energy... food and a possibility of a new ship... that wasn't such a bad offer. She was rather hungry...
"I'm not sure ... can this Human build a ship fast enough?"
"She can build the fastest ships I've ever seen. Much faster, I'm sure, than your own ship."
Leiko nodded slightly, "Very well then... take me there." Goku smiled relieved that she didn't know about the dragonballs or that she had any sort of desire to destroy the earth.
"err... just one thing..." he said.
"what is that?" Leiko asked her eyes flashing
"Well... you might have to deal with Vegeta... and he's not the "dealing type..."

Oy I don't know how many times I used the word "well" in this Fic... Oh well... guess you're just going to have to deal with it. I haven't written in a looong time...

Well if you have ANY suggestions for the story then do tell me, I would appreciate it. And sorry if this is not one of my better chapters. PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!! I want at least 2 more reviews or I WILL NOT continue and that's really not a lot to ask. Otherwise it's a waste of my time... Well, goodbye and keep reviewing. v
