Chapter 6: Arrival and Capture
The two ships were flying through space smoothly so far. They had been on the journey for ten days now and Goku hand caused many problems since the food incident.
On Trunks' ship Umbra and Goku were sparring. Each was super saiyan and were matching each other blow for blow.
Goku dodged Umbra's punch and responded with a ki blast to his stomach. The blast pushed him back though it did no damage. Umbra disappeared and reappeared behind Goku. Goku turned around only to find himself looking into a blue energy ball that slammed into his face. Umbra didn't stop there; next he grabbed Goku's leg and through him to the ground. Goku got up and rubbed his aching head. They were about to continue when the ship suddenly shook.
"What was that?" asked Gohan.
Trunks looked on his radar and found that two unidentified ships were following them. The two ships opened fire and shot at Trunks' and Bulla's ships. Trunks' ship wasn't the model for defense. It had only had two lasers for a defense. Bulla had the ship with a lot of defenses. It had six rapid firing lasers and a plasma cannon. The two ships fired their lasers at the unknown enemy. The two ships had shields rendering each of the lasers useless. The two ships fired space torpedoes and destroyed most of the lasers. Trunks decided that he would have to send someone out there to defend the ships. He chose Goku but Umbra insisted that he would go. Umbra didn't even accept a space suit as he left the ship and fired rapid ki beams at the three ships which destroyed the shields. Umbra went super saiyan and hit each of the two ships' engines causing them to plummet to a nearby meteor. Umbra signaled for Trunks and Bulla to land their ships on the meteor. Umbra also flew to the meteor and found the two ships. Three figures stepped out of them. They looked like Rain, Smoke, and Zero but one of their outfits was green and the other was silver. Just as the three others their outfits, hair and wings shared the same color. The only difference would be that their hair reached their shoulders.
"More of you guys?" Goku complained as he stepped out of the ship.
"Who are you?" Trunks asked.
"We are Lord Kintaro's top enforcers." The one in silver said.
"Kintaro? We thought it was Motaro." said everyone.
"Lord Motaro is Lord Kintaro's younger brother." The one in green said.
"Is he also on Jered?" asked Bulla.
"That is correct. Allow us to introduce ourselves. I am Blade..." The one in silver said.
"... and I am Blaine." The one in green said.
"Why did you attack us?" asked Pan.
"That is our own business." Blade said as he opened his hand and pointed it at the gang. Suddenly a gust of wind blew each of them back and into a mountain on the meteor. Blaine's hands glowed green as boulders lifted into the air and were thrown at the gang.
"Scatter" Goku said. Everyone disappeared to dodge the boulders. Blade flew towards Gohan and punched him in the stomach. Gohan doubled over and Blade pointed his hand at the ground. Suddenly a tornado flew out of the ground and it surrounded Gohan. The harsh winds slashed Gohan as he cried in pain.
Blaine put his hands on the ground and let out a yell. The ground flew up in pillars and slammed into Goku and Bulla. (If you didn't get it yet, Blade has control over the wind and Blaine has control over the ground.) Blaine disappeared and reappeared behind Lumis. Green energy engulfed his hand but before he stuck Lumis turned around and kneed him in the stomach. Lumis then unleashed a barrage of punches on Blaine's face. Blaine tried to block but Lumis didn't give him anytime to dodge. Finally Lumis stopped his attacked. Blaine looked up at him but found himself staring into Lumis' attack.
"SAIYAN DEATH BALL" he cried as the blue energy ball engulfed Blaine's body and carried him to the ground. When he hit the ground half the meteor blew up. Lumis searched the debris and looked for Blaine.
"Where is he? That couldn't have finished him." he said to himself. Lumis knew he Blaine wasn't gone but he had things to take care of. Lumis flew towards Blade who was now fighting Umbra.
Blade karate chopped Umbra's neck leaving a cut with blood seeping out. Umbra flew high into the air and then dashed at Blade at unbelievable speed. Umbra put his two hands in front of him and fired a strong blast at him. Before his attack hit Umbra disappeared and reappeared in front of Blade and punched him to the side. Lumis stepped to the side and kicked his own blast back at Blade. It hit resulting in a big explosion. When the smoke cleared Blade was nowhere to be found. The gang took this opportunity to get off the meteor and resume their journey. When they were off the meteor Blade and Blaine appeared on top of the rubble.
"They're more powerful than we thought." Blade said.
"They are still no match for Lord Kintaro." Blaine said.
"Blaine, Blade, report back now." A voice said out of nowhere. Suddenly Blade and Blaine disappeared.
On Trunks' ship everyone was relieved that they escaped the meteor.
"So now we've got someone who controls wind, earth, fire, water, and lightning. This is too much." Goku complained.
"Also there is another, one called Kintaro." Umbra said.
"Yeah, I wonder how powerful Motaro and Kintaro will be." Trunks said.
Five says later the gang had to stop on a planet to fix an engine in Trunks' ship. Bulla and her group were told to continue and not to wait for Trunks. The plan was to have Bulla and her group go in first to survey everything. Then trunks and his group would arrive and then they would start getting some real work done.
It took Trunks two days to repair the engine so Bulla was at least two days ahead of them. On Trunks' ship an image on the screen started to come up. It was Bulla.
"Hey guys. We made it to Jered already." Bulla said.
"What? How? You shouldn't be arriving there for another few days." Trunks said.
"Maybe Umbra was wrong." Bulla said.
"So how is it there?" asked Goku.
"It's great. It's just like earth." Bulla said happily.
"Jered isn't supposed to be like earth. It should be like a wasteland with a different atmosphere. It should be hard to breath and talk though you act as though you're fine." Umbra said.
"Well I guess this planet changed. Oh I got to go. I'm going swimming today." Bulla said as she disappeared from the screen.
"Something's wrong. I am one hundred percent sure that they should have reached Jered in two days. Jered is nothing like earth." Umbra said when Bulla was off the screen.
"Maybe they aren't on Jered. Maybe they are in another planet." Goten said.
"I doubt that. The computer was set to take them to Jered. What could have happened?" Trunks asked.
"This doesn't make any sense. Why would my daughter go swimming at a time like this!" Vegeta yelled.
"I guess that question will be answered when we get to Jered." Goku said.
(With Bulla and the others)
"Let go of me." Said Bulla as a guard that looked like Blade pushed her into a cell. The only way to tell the guard from Blade was the color of his wings. Instead of silver the guard's wings were as white as snow.
"Be quiet." The guard said as it fired a weak blast at Bulla. The guard locked the cell and walked away.
"Do you really think this can hold me?" Bulla asked.
"Yes I really do." The guard said as it walked away.
Bulla tried to break out of the chains but she found she could not. She tried to from a ki ball in her hand but she could not. She felt that she was getting weaker and weaker. She looked at the top of the cell and saw green lights. They were emitting strange energies. When she tried to touch them she felt weaker. She figured that the lights kept her powers stored. Bulla observed her surroundings. It was hard to breathe. She was locked in a cell. She didn't know where the other. Had they been captured to? Bulla fell to the ground in weakness. She tried to get up but she could not. She started to cry. She wished her brother was here to protect her.
The others were in similar cells. None of them were anywhere near each other. The only one who was not captured was Lumis.
Back on Trunks' ship everyone was pondering what happened with Bulla and the others. As Trunks was steering the ship he saw a hole in space. It was sucking the ship into it. Trunks tried to get the ship out of the path of the hole but he could not. The hole sucked the ship in and seemed to transport it somewhere. When the gang next looked they were on a planet. This planet had a red sun. The gang assumed it was night. They looked around. They were in a jungle of some kind. In the far distance the outline of a palace could be seen but upon more detailed observation it was just the rubble of a fallen palace. It was very warm on this planet. Everyone was already sweating and panting. Umbra was the first to speak.
"This is Jered." He said in an emotionless voice.
