Chapter 8

Hope and Horror

As the twins disappeared from sight the Saiyans stood still weeping for a few minutes. When the last sniffle had been heard, they all sat in silence for a moment before Vegeta realized he had the method they would need for the first leg of what he was sure would be a long journey.

"The car" he blurted. He needed to say no more, for the others knew what he meant. He ran, and held tightly onto Trunks as he leapt off the building, followed closely by Goku, carrying Goten, and Gohan. The drop was longer than a human could withstand, but the Saiyans still possessed enough strength to withstand the impact, and with a slick and a pop the capsule car stood ready for the Saiyans to load into and barrel off to their first destination on the road of rehabilitation, Capsule Corps.

Elsewhere

Eighteen landed and stared for a moment at the area she sensed Yamcha's VERY weak ki coming from. She was in the middle of a run down neighborhood not far from where the Saiyans were found, and she felt a sense of sorrow and hopelessness coming from the place. She walked towards the house and knocked, and the door was answered by a scraggly looking teenager. His red eyes, ruffled clothing, and messy hair suggested he had been sleeping, but he reeked of a mixture of opium and marijuana, smells she recognized from her mindless, grief stricken travels through every place possible.

He looked her up and down then gave a sloppy smile.

"You look like a gal who needs pleasing" he slurred. She recoiled in disgust then growled. She picked him up by the front of his shirt.

"What's your name?" she asked in a deadly tone

"Tyler" he stuttered

"Well, Tyler, here's what you're going to do. You're going to go home, tell your parents what you've been doing, apologize, and never pick up another Thai stick as long as you live. And if I EVER find you near another place even REMOTELY like this, or if I even SMELL anything REMOTELY illegal or dangerous on you, I'm going to make you wish you were never BORN. And don't think you'll never see me again, because I WILL check in on you and I CAN find you. Understood?" She casually tossed a ki blast up and down in her other hand to make her point

"Y-yes ma'am" he nodded and she dropped him. He landed hard on his butt, but took no time to recover and took off to do as she said.

She watched him go and made a note of his ki signature and name and made a note to check on him later. She always kept her word.

She took a step into the house and nearly vomited from the stench. She stepped outside and took a few breaths of clean air, then steeled herself and walked back in.

"Get out of here, go home" she yelled at the people sitting around. They looked at her as if she'd lost it, and she sighed. She powered up a ki blast and tossed it at a wall, and the group stampeded out the door, screaming. She stepped through the hole she'd made and found Yamcha, staring at the ceiling, completely zoned out. He didn't look but knew someone was there.

"You back again Gohan? Want another one? I got a great pack today" he said. Her eyes widened in horror, then disgust. She couldn't believe anyone could sink so low, let alone Gohan. She took a step closer and he lifted a hand holding one of the horrible sticks towards her. She growled and slapped it from his hand, sending the stick through the wall. Yamcha sat up and looked at her in surprise, then in confusion. She decided to clear things up by picking him up and using him to open a window. She followed him out the window and found him pulling a large piece of glass out of his arm.

"Eighteen?! Have you gone killer android again?!" He tried to run away, but she was in front of him. She knocked him down and tied him up with ki. An audience was quickly forming, a couple of whom Eighteen sensed an aura of greed emanating from. Whispers rose from the crowd.

"You make me sick" she said coldly.

"You" she pointed to a man with several tattoos

"And you" pointing to a man with a large gold chain "Preying on the weak is no way to gain respect. Have you no sense of honor?!" she walked towards them, and they attempted to run, but she was there before they moved, she had them by the backs of the shirts. She knocked their heads together, knocking them unconscious, then landed near Yamcha.

"Baka predators" she muttered "Now, all of you, get out of here before I decide to not be so nice. You should all be ashamed of being weak enough to be prey for ones such as these. Go now, and if I even IMAGINE you, ANY of you, picking up another drug I WILL find you, and we'll have to do things the hard way. You DON'T want that" she pointed at Yamcha, who was crying and struggling, and the drug dealers who were moaning about crazy blondes. They turned to run, but she stopped them for one final word.

"Spread the word, if any of you see this man" she pointed at Yamcha "Run from him" to make her point, she powered up a ki blast and tossed it behind her, incinerating the house and leaving nothing but a crater to be looked at. The people were gone by the time she looked back.

She smirked, picked up her prisoners, dropped off the dealers at the police station, and dropped Yamcha in a lake before dropping him off at Capsule Corps.

"Goodness, where did you find him?" Dr. Briefs asked

"You don't want to know" she said
