A/N: Hi again, guys! Sorry to keep you waiting for this next chappy, but I got caught up in "Scary Stories". Everybody says they're scary and I believe them. I'm gettin' off subject. I hope you enjoy this next chapter! R&R.

Candy the Duck: Thanks for the review. But to answer your question, Goku and Vegeta can fly, but they don't have their Super Saiyan strength back in that time. So, yeah, it probably does hurt Goku.

Disclaimer: DB/Z/GT... That sounds familiar, but I don't own it. Go ask Akira Toriyama. He might own it. But I own Stephanie. I know he doesn't own her.

Chapter 9.

The two boys looked up slowly. They were not at all prepared for what they saw. A tan colored mountain loin was on the tree limb above them. It was the source of the heavy breathing. White foam surrounded its mouth and some dripped down to the branches below.

"C'mon, Trunks!" Goten said as he flew away a few feet.

Trunks didn't fly, but stared at the mountain lion ahead. This reminded him so much about that one night...

: : Flash back : :

Trunks was in his room and was trying to go to sleep. Tomorrow was his birthday and he just couldn't get to sleep. As he rolled over, he thought he heard footsteps. He wasn't sure, but didn't really care.

Something jumped up onto the bed. The boy heard heavy breathing as he looked up. Pug stood over him. Something wet dripped onto the boy's hand.

"Hey, Pug," he said as he reached up to pet him.

The dog snapped at his hand and began to growl. Trunks quickly slid out from under the dog and ran to his dresser. He grabbed his flashlight and shone it on Pug. White foam dripped onto the bed and covers. This didn't look good. The boy dropped his flashlight and ran out of his room. He slammed the door shut and leaned against it. He could hear the dog barking and scratching at the door.

Trunks ran to his parent's room. He threw open their door and shouted, "Pug tried to attack me!"

They all ran to Trunks' bedroom and heard the dog trying to get out. It was still barking and growling. So, in the end, Vegeta had to kill Pug. Poor Trunks began to put more effort into his training so that he would forget his lost companion.

: : End flash back : :

"TRUNKS!!"

The boy came back to reality. Goten had grabbed him and yanked him off the limb. The mountain lion tried to cut them with its claws, but couldn't reach. It jumped at them and grabbed Trunks' leg.

"Aaah!" He screamed out in pain.

Trunks kicked the lion off and it landed on the ground with a thud. He looked down at his leg and winced.

"Are you ok?" Goten asked as he landed near a small stream.

"Yeah..." Trunks said.

"You killed the lion and saved the village."

"I know."

"Maybe we could go get some help for you at the village."

Trunks was quiet. Finally, he said something. "Ok. Let's go."

-------

The villagers watched as the two "witches" walked down the main street of the village. How dare they come back after they were chased off? Wait. One looked hurt. Maybe he had found their lion. They all began to whisper.

"I think I saw a doctor nearby..." Goten whispered.

"You really had time to look?" Trunks asked. "Even with all the villagers attacking us?"

"I know it's here," Goten said. "There! Let's go."

They made their way across the dirt road and to the other side of the street. Before they could knock on the door, a big man stepped in front of their way. "What do you want?"

"My friend needs to see the doctor," the younger half-Saiyan said.

"You two are witches, so why don't you just heal yourself with your magic?"

"We're not witches!"

"Why don't you just-"

"Shut up!" Trunks shouted.

The two obeyed.

"Just let us in or else," he glared at the man just like his Dad would.

The man quickly stepped out of the way and let the two in.

-------

Bulma walked to the kitchen and grabbed a drink. She had been working all afternoon, but all that work had finally paid off. Her machine was ready to use. Stephanie had already tried it out and come back with a new dinosaur. She had named it Scooter.

Yes. As you can guess, the machine Bulma had made was a time retriever. It could retrieve any thing from any time.

"Mom?"

"Yes, sweetie?" Bulma looked to the doorway and saw Stephanie.

"Can I go get everybody from where ever they are in time?" She asked.

"Sure," Bulma watched her daughter smile and walk out of the room.

-------

Stephanie ran down the hall, up the stairs, and to Bulma's lab. She slowed down to a walk and went into the lab. She grabbed the time machine. She'd need it in order to get back to her time.

"All right. Lets see..." Steph pushed a few buttons on the time retriever. "Where are they?"

The machine remained silent and then began to beep.

"The midievil times?" She questioned. "I just studied that in history the other day. I hope they haven't messed it up too bad."

She pushed a few more buttons and the machine beeped. The room began to get bright and then pure white.

-------

Goku and Vegeta landed in the street in the village. The villagers began to run to their houses and nail the doors shut. The two Saiyans and kitties looked very confused.

"Goten and Trunks must've been here," Goku said plainly.

"Ya think?" Vegeta asked sarcastically.

"Yeah," Goku said.

He's such an idiot! Vegeta thought.

"Daddy!"

The two Saiyans looked back to see Goten running to them.

"Goten!" Goku said as he hugged his son. "Are you ok?"

"Yeah."

"Where's Trunks?" Vegeta demanded.

"Back there," the half-Saiyan said as he pointed back at a house. "A mountain lion attacked us and he got hurt. I took him to a doctor and now he's gettin' taken care of. I'll take you to him. C'mon."

The three Saiyans and two cats entered the small building and saw Trunks sitting on a chair with his foot propped up onto a leg rest. He looked up and shouted, "Dad!"

The boy floated up and hovered over to his Dad. He gave him a small hug.

"Where'd ya get the cat?" Trunks pointed to the girl cat.

"Tiger found her," Goku said.

"Can we keep her?" Goten begged.

"No, Chichi won't like having a cat around," the Saiyan said. "The Briefs could probably keep her."

Before Vegeta or Trunks could say anything, there was a bright flash of light. The doctor, who had been walking to the room, saw the flash and ran to the back of the building. The small group of Saiyans and the two cats shut their eyes.

"Hey, guys!" Came a voice from behind them.

They looked back and saw Stephanie. In her right hand, she held the machine that had brought the other four Saiyans back to this time.

"Ready to go back home?" She asked teasingly.

"Duh!" Trunks shouted.

"I have one question before we go back to our time line," Goten said. "Can you keep this cat?"

The boy held up the pretty girl kitty. She was too cute to say no to, so they agreed to keep her.

"All right," Steph said. "Let's go back to our time."

She pushed a few buttons and the machine beeped a few times. The room became a solid blue wall and the group began to fall (Remember? This is the other machine.).

A/N: I know this is kind of a weird place to stop, but I had to end this chapter some where! Lol. Anywho, there will probably be only one more chapter and that'll be the end. I had a great time writing this, but I'm sort'a sad to see it come to an end. Thanks for all the reviews, guys, and please review this chapter too. Thanks!
