I don't own any of the DBZ characters or any of the Sailor Moon characters.
This is going to be a short chapter and for that I'm sorry. I'll make up
for it in the next chapter which will be better.
Bourkan stood in an alleyway and looked about his surroundings. The city. Hundreds of people walked about paying no attention to him. No fear of him. He hated it. But he might have to get used to it. Depending how long it took him to complete his mission. The sun felt warm on his face, giving him a warm, comfortable, and happy feeling. He hated it. "Stupid humanity."
Being stripped of all his powers, he was forced to also walk the sidewalks like a normal person. But he wasn't normal. It wasn't fair! A few smiled at him as he passed and greeting him with "Good mornings." A waste of breath. He'd blow them up for it if he could. "Stupid human greetings."
His stomach began to growl fiercely. "Stupid human anatomy." He needed energy. It was so much easier to steal it. Weather humans didn't know this or didn't choose too, he didn't know and didn't care. He supposed that he would have to find something to eat anyway.
Man! The sun was cooking him inside of his normal black uniform. Still, he wouldn't change out of his black attire. Colorful human cloths were something he really detested. Even if they were pretty. "Stupid human fashion." Humanity was going to kill him. He kicked at the wall in frustration. His foot left a large hole in the wall where his foot had been. He still had his strength. Did King Mogroth allow him to keep his strength? Or did it always belong to him? It didn't matter right now. It would come in hand.
He clutched his stomach as it began to growl again. He would have to eat something soon. He didn't know how to eat, bet he'd seen people do it before. Didn't look too difficult. He stopped walking as an interesting aroma found his nose. What ever it was, it made his stomach ache for it. He moved swiftly in the direction of the smell.
Standing in front of a small building, he looked at a large sign posted over the building. "Moobey's Burger Joint" A picture of a cartoon cow sat next to it. Outside the building, people sat and stuffed things into their mouths. Must be that "food" stuff. This must be where people come to get their food. We went inside the building.
People were eating inside the building as well. He watched as people stood behind a counter and exchanged paper for food. "Stupid human currency." He would need some to get "food." About to turn around and exit, he paused at something posted on a window caught his attention. "Help Wanted." It read. Minimum wage for people who are just starting. All shifts. He thought on this for a moment. Services in return for currency.
"Looking for a job?"
Bourkan looked up and saw a girl with long blur hair tied up in a ponytail looking back at him. One of the people that worked behind the counter. His stomach growled. "Yes." He replied and looked back at the paper.
She listened to the growl of his stomach and smiled at him. "Well, let me get you something to eat and then I'll get you started on the paper work. Believe me, we need the help." She ran behind the counter.
"I don't have any money on me right now." He replied in his monotone voice.
"Its okay. Since you'll be working here, you eat here for free!" She walked back over to him with a small plate of food and some papers in her hand. I'll help you out with this while you eat. She smiled at him and pulled out a pen.
Bourkan looked at his food. Recognizing it as a "burger" from the sign outside. He watched the other people in the room carefully as they ate. They took small bites, chewed it, and it disappeared from their mouths before they took another bite. Did they inhale it? He tried it. "AAHHKK!"
He choked on his food. The girl ran behind him and patted his back as the food went down his throat. He swallowed it. So he was supposed to SWALLOW it. He would have to remember that one.
"Be more careful huh?" She wiped the worried look away and sat back down.
"More careful?" He looked at her curiously. No one had ever told him that before.
"Yeah. If that stuff get lodged in you throat, you could suffocate." She took a few french fries from his plate and nibbled at them.
He looked down at his food in horror. His eyes wide. He didn't know that eating was so DANGEROUS! He made sure to hold his breath before taking another bite and swallowing it. It seemed humans lived more dangerous lives than he did!
"Your not form around here are you?" She laughed at him as he gave a horrified look at his food.
"What makes you say that?" He looked at her.
"Not many people around here walk around in black clothing in 90 degree weather." She laughed.
He almost smiled back at her, but caught himself in the middle of it. Damn humanity was trying to take over! He bit his tong in effort to keep a strait face. She still smiled at him.
"I'm Trista, by the way."
"Bourkan."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Bourkan stood in front of a mirror and looked at his reflection. There was no way in hell that he was going wear this get up. The white t- shirt with black spots on it was bad enough. But he was not going to wear a ball cap with a cow on it. A line had to be drawn. "Stupid job."
"I know its bad, but you'll get used to it!' Trista smiled and pulled his hat over his eyes jokingly.
He grimaced. He couldn't lose his cover. He did need to find the Great Sayiaman, but, he didn't not need to be destroyed by him in the process by causing trouble. Not yet anyway. It was just until he got some of that currency stuff. Then he would be gone from here.
"Have you worked behind a register before?" She pulled her own hat on.
"Yes." He lied of course, but that was no problem. The technology here compared to that of the Nega-verse were that of children's toys. He prided himself in being good with technology.
"Good! Its almost noon so we'll be getting a lot of customers here shortly."
"I'm not doing it." He looked back at his reflection
"***"
He felt like a jackass. Looked like one too in his opinion. Working behind the register was easy, but he refused to enjoy it. He glared. If looks could kill, every one of his customers would have died there at the counter. He was tempted to throw the peoples food at them just to relieve some of his anger.
"Cheer up! People won't want to eat here if you make those kinds of faces!" she laughed at his moodiness. The guy at the other register began making funny faces at him to cheer up. He wanted to laugh. He bit his tong in effort to keep a strait face. "Stupid human feelings."
Oh shit! The Sailor Scouts walked in with some friends of theirs. If they recognized him, he was as good as dead! He plastered a fake smile on his face in effort to look cheery. "Act like a human! Act like a human!"
Gohan followed the girls in with Melvin. Raye stopped and waited for Gohan. "Since our lunch plans were interrupted yesterday, what say we try again!"
"Thanks for inviting me Gohan." Melvin said.
"Hey, I didn't invite you. She invited us both yesterday, remember?" Gohan brought his voice down. "Besides, I think Raye really does like you. She is just having problems coming out and saying it. But don't worry, I'll help you out!"
"Wow! Really? Thanks Gohan!"
"What would you like?" Bourkan said cheerily with a grin. He felt he might throw up after this.
"Lets see." Serena looked up at the menu. "We'll take three value meal.two chicken mac's.one mc fish sandwich .and one Moobey chicken salad." Gohan pulled out his wallet and paid for the food.
As they walked back outside with their order, Bourkan let out a great sigh of relief. That was close. Too close for comfort. He jumped as someone poked him in the back.
"Hey! See! There is a cheery person inside you after all! You just need to bring him out!" Trista laughed.
Bourkan grimaced. That was perhaps he felt to be one of the more degrading things he had ever done in his life. His co-workers kidded with him and smiled at his cheering up. He was really going to hate life.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Hey, I forgot to ask you, what was that thing we saw on the roof of the building yesterday?" Gohan ate slowly so to act normally around his new friends.
The girls looked a little uncomfortable as he asked that question. Melvin spoke up for them. "They are evil monsters that steal peoples energy. No one is quite sure where they come from or who they are, but the Sailor Scouts have always protected us from them."
"And who are the Sailor Scouts?" Gohan asked.
The girls seemed less uncomfortable about this question and Serena jumped up from the table. "They are crime fighting girls who fight evil for the sake of peace! Justice! And love!" She shook her first in the air for dramatization.
"Hey Gohan, I also heard that the Great Sayiaman is supposed to be in the city too. Isn't he from your neck of the woods?" Mina looked at Gohan, who now in turn was looking a little uncomfortable.
"All I know is that he's a crime fighter in the city. And really strong. I saw him lift a whole air liner out of the sky once in the news!"
Melvin excused himself from the table and ran off to the restroom.
Serena looked skeptically at Gohan. Amy spoke up. "This guy sounds like he could put the Sailor Scouts to shame."
"Maybe. But from what you say, it sounds like the Sailor Scouts have had a great deal more experience in crime fighting than him. The Great Sayiaman appeared only a few moths ago." They nodded in agreement. Gohan suddenly looked around him in confusion, as if looking or listening for something. "Excuse me, but it's my time to use the rest room!" He got up and hurried into the building.
"That was kind of weird." Mina watched as he ran into the building.
Lita shrugged. "When ya gotta go, ya gotta go."
Amy looked slightly disgusted at Lita's comment. "I don't think that was what Mina was referring to."
"What do you think? I think he likes me! Do you think he likes me?" Raye was starting to get hyper.
"What are you talking about? He likes me!" Serena was quick to argue with her friend. Raye shot daggers from her eyes at Serena.
"How do you know he doesn't like me?" Lita asked. Serena and Raye looked at her with expressions of shock that she would even dare suggest such a thing.
"I don't need this." Amy held her head in her hands and shook her head.
Their argument was cut short as a loud screeching noise pierced the air. They looked up to find a car speeding down the road. A man was hanging out the window yelling wildly and waving a machine gun about.
"Duck!" Mina yelled. The girls dropped underneath the table in time to avoid a barrage of bullets; holding their hands over their ears from the sound. Hearing a very loud "CRUNCH", they crawled out from under the table and looked around.
The car was immobile, as the Great Sayiaman (Costume and all) was standing where the front of the car used to be. Now smashed into the ground under his weight. "Excuse me," He grabbed the machine gun from the stunned person in the car. "But shooting a machine gun in a populated area can be dangerous. I'm afraid I'll have to ask to see your license."
"Why you. AAHHKK!" He watched as the man broke his machine gun into four small pieces. He handed them back to the stunned man politely. "Who the heck are you?"
The great Sayiaman hopped down off the hood of the car and pulled the car door off. "I am the Great Sayiaman!" he pulled him out of the vehicle. "Defender of justice!" he ripped the top of the car off. "Guardian of the city!" He pulled out the driver in the car. "Watcher of the people!" Holding the people, he flew off into the sky, still giving his introduction to the two criminals.
A minute later, Goahn walked out of the building with a look of shock at the state of everything around him. A car was demolished in front of the building and holes from what looked to be a gun littered the sides of near by buildings. "What happened?"
Raye looked at Serena and Mina who stood looking up at the sky with goggle eyes. She took this as her opportunity and ran over to Gohan and hugged his arm. "Oh Gohan! It was terrible! Some crazy guy came speeding through here shooting a machine gun!"
"But the Great Sayiaman saved us!" Melvin walked out of the building behind Gohan and looked at him with a glint in his eye. er. glasses, a look of up most satisfaction.
"Gohan, would you walk me home?" Raye looked up at him with pleading eyes.
"Yeah. Sure." Nice girl. He thought to himself. Must be scared half to death. But what was that look Melvin gave me? Weird. He dismissed the thought and proceeded to walk her home.
"Huh?" Serena look back and saw Gohan walking with Raye down the street. "Aww man! Too late." She glared at the back of her friend as they walked further and further away until she couldn't see her anymore. They turned a corner, before disappearing, Raye turned her head and stuck her tong out at her.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
A few minutes later, after the crowd had died down, Bourkan walked out of the fast food place and looked around with a mixed expression of anger and shock? The Great Sayiaman? Here? He was just here? And he had just lost the opportunity? Where was he? Serving food inside the building to the stupid humans.
Still, this was where people came to get the "food" stuff. This was where people came to eat. Yes, the Great Sayiaman undoubtedly ate food as well. Yes, he would continue to work here until the Great Sayiaman showed up again. And when he does, he would get his opportunity. The perfect plan.
"Bwahahahahahaha!" Bourkan laughed his evil maniacal laugh before he noticed the strange looks of people around him. Trista looked at him kind of funny.
"What's so funny?" She inquired.
"Huh? Nothing. Never mind." He turned around to head back into the building.
"You need to work on your evil laugh." She told him.
"Huh? What's wrong with my evil laugh?"
"Its nor very convincing. But don't worry. We'll work on that too." She smiled at him and went back into the building. He stood outside and watched her go back inside after her remark. His evil laugh wasn't convincing?! He always thought he did a rather good evil laugh.
"Hnn!" He grunted. "Stupid humanity.
Bourkan stood in an alleyway and looked about his surroundings. The city. Hundreds of people walked about paying no attention to him. No fear of him. He hated it. But he might have to get used to it.
