The morning sun was peeking through the window of Goten's room the next day. Stirring, Goten quickly got up remembering that today Albenia was to strike. Changing into his gi in record time, he left his room in search of food. Crossing the landing, he glanced through a gap in his sisters door to see her already dressed and doing push ups. Smirking to himself, he made his way downstairs to find his parents in the kitchen with Mirai Trunks.
"Morning Goten, sleep well?" Goku asked.
"I did actually, considering we have this monster coming today. Better than others anyway, I kept hearing Emi walking about last night." He replied, grabbing a glass and pouring himself some juice.
"Well when I put her to bed she stayed put. This is her first major fight, she's nervous that's all." Mirai Trunks argued, ChiChi just sighed.
"She'll be alright, someone needs to wake her up. It'll be time for you all to go soon right?" She asked, everyone stared at her in shock, never had she been so calm about them going out to fight.
"Are you alright honey?" Goku asked, ChiChi smirked.
"Of course I'm fine, I was just thinking last night, she's a fighter too. There is really not much point trying to stop her." She replied.
"She's already up." Goten declared, Mirai Trunks smirked at this.
"I thought she would be." He said, a couple of moments later Emily sauntered down the stairs into the kitchen.
"Morning honey." ChiChi greeted.
"Morning everyone, something happened to me last night, I could have sworn I fell asleep in the kitchen." She said, eyeing Mirai Trunks, who just grinned and nodded his head.
"Well you didn't look too comfortable so I put you back to bed." He replied, Emily just smiled at him.
"Oh, thanks. Don't worry though, I've slept in worse places than the kitchen chair." She mumbled, going to the fridge and pouring herself a glass of milk, everyone just stared at her.
"What do you mean by that Emily?" Goku asked, Emily suddenly went red as if she had just released something she didn't want to share. Maybe she had… she just shook her head.
"Nothing, it doesn't matter." She sighed, walking into the living room. Deciding that she would be more comfortable talking to them about her past, they left her alone. They were just talking about strategies until there was a knock on the door. Figuring that Emily would answer it with her being the closest, they left it until further sharper raps were heard.
"Are you going to get that Emily?" Goku called, Goten peeked into the living room and frowned as he looked at his father.
"She's not there, it's empty." He stated, then ran to open the door to see a very irate Gohan standing there.
"What took you so long? And where did Emily go?" He demanded.
"Go? What do you mean?" Goku asked puzzled.
"She just took off from the house, didn't you feel her?" Gohan sighed looking around, to his surprise, everyone shook their heads.
"She must have surpressed her ki." Mirai Trunks worked out.
"But I haven't taught her how to do that yet." Goku argued then his attention turned to Goten and suddenly all eyes went on the Chibi Demi Saiyan, who held his hands up.
"Hey, she made me teach her!" He protested, Goku smirked at him as he could clearly picture her pinning him to the wall and demanding he teach her how to be sneaky. Gohan looked at his watch and frowned.
"He'll be here in just under an hour, we'd better head off. I'm guessing Emily wanted a head start." He stated, Goku nodded.
"Yeah, I can already feel her there with Vegeta and Trunks. You all ready?" He asked, everyone nodded then saying goodbye to ChiChi, who was demanding that they all came back alive, they all took off. Half an hour later, they arrived at the mountain range that Bulma had estimated Albenia's arrival, meeting up with all the other Z Fighters.
"Where's Emily?" Mirai Trunks asked looking around.
"She's over that mountain preparing herself. She's been here for ages now." Piccolo stated, Goku frowned at this.
"Yeah, she snuck out the house." He said making his way over to the place Piccolo had said. He found his daughter sitting on the edge of a cliff looking up at the sky.
"Hi dad." She said without looking at him.
"Don't you 'hi dad' me. What did you think you were doing, taking off and not telling us?" He demanded, this made her look at him as she narrowed her eyes at her father.
"I came early to ensure that I wouldn't screw up and avoid making a complete idiot of myself. Besides, Gohan saw me leave and I knew that would be the first thing he would tell you." She pointed out, Goku just smirked at this, realising that she was right.
"Look, if you wanted to go by yourself to prepare, all you had to do was telling us. And you've done a fine job training with Trunks, you've reached your goal, you're a super saiyan. You'll never make an idiot of yourself, you got that?" He said firmly, she nodded.
"Yeah, I wanna stay, but I don't want to be in the way. What should I do?" She asked, seriously.
"You are a fighter too Emi, I want you to stay." He said walking over and helping her up.
"Right, this guy is going down." She replied as they made their way back over to the others. They waited for a while and as soon as the negative energy hit them Emily decided that now was the best time to transform, as she felt she wouldn't have a chance to do it when he landed. Following suit, all the saiyans transformed into super saiyans too. Looking up into the sky, they all saw a white light forming into an oval ship. As it got closer to them, four pole like legs came out the bottom as it prepared to land.
"Get ready everyone." Goku warned.
"Kakarot, you do not have to tell me to get ready." Vegeta snapped as he kept his gaze fixed on the ship, which had now touched down on the surface. To their surprise, there was no door, but a staircase that began unfolding from beneath the ship. As the last step touched the floor, a line began to snake around the front of the ship, like someone was drawing a rectangle with an invisible pen, then the rectangle opened up to reveal a large figure in a black robe.
"What is that thing?" Emily gasped, staring at in shock. The hood of the robe lifted to reveal two red eyes. Out of one of the sleeves, a blue hand with black claw like fingers ripped the cloak off revealing their foes form.
"I am Albenia, Devil Pirate of the well known galaxy. Your measly planet has been chosen by yours truly for hoarding cyber equipment, not that you'll be alive to see. Now stand aside, and I may consider letting you live." He growled, his eyes flashing dangerously. His tall figure was similar to the Namekian structure, except smaller ears and no antennas. He sported red pants with a yellow sleeveless top and brown boots. Behind him a two foot tail weaved around dangerously.
"And do you think we're just going to let you take our planet without a fight? You can think again." Goku yelled, Albenia's eyes fell on Goku and his small mouth cracked into a wide smirk.
"You must be Bardock's son. Yes, I can see the resemblance. You Saiyan's are know match for me. Many people have fought and lost their lives fighting me, why should you be any different?" He sneered.
"We're no ordinary Saiyans. Can't you tell the difference tough guy?" Emily snapped, stepping forward.
"Emi, don't." Gohan warned, whilst the others stared at her.
"Hm, a female with a big mouth. Yes for your information, I know your all super saiyan. But that doesn't mean anything to me, your still not going to win." He stated, his eyes fixed on her now.
"Keep talking like that and you'll swallow those words up. Some of us have ascended you know, super saiyan isn't good enough round here anymore." Emily snarled, narrowing her eyes at him.
"Uh Trunks? What is she talking about?" Gohan asked, looking at Mirai Trunks who had his gaze fixed on Emily.
"I honestly don't know Gohan. Unless she's done more training since we've left the hyperbolic time chamber, I'm as clueless as you are." He replied, glancing at Gohan then turning back to her.
"That's impossible, we would have seen her." Gohan muttered, everyone shrugged their shoulders whilst Emily ignored their comments.
"I admire your courage little girl, but I know all about your pathetic race." He sneered, also stepping forward now.
"Laugh again, because you know nothing about us." She snarled, lunging at him, smirking, he watched as she approached him then they both disappeared as they began fighting at lightning speed.
"What is she doing?" Trunks asked.
"I don't know. I don't think she knows what she's doing either, I have to stop her." Goku said, getting ready to take off only to get Mirai Trunks placing his hand on his shoulder.
"Wait, don't underestimate her. She's a powerful fighter." He stated, Goku just sighed and relaxed a bit as he turned his attention back to his daughter. Back up in the air, it looked as though Albenia had the upper hand until Emily instant translocated to the back of him, smirking as she cupped her hands together, he spun around glaring at her.
"And what do you think your doing?" He laughed.
"Destructo bomb!" Emily yelled, as a white energy surrounded by a yellow aura appeared in her hands.
"Emily no!" Goku screamed, knowing what the result of this attack did. Emily as usual ignored her father and watched as Albenia widened his eyes at her, as he noticed how powerful the attack was.
"It's the only way dad. Blast!" She yelled as she released it into him. Jumping back, Albenia pulled his arms up to block the attack, only it went right into him and hit. He was suddenly surrounded by a white light whilst a powerful energy was sent towards Emily. She narrowed her eyes as she powered up to try and shield the energy, but it was too strong. It engulfed her automatically and sent her flying through several cliffs behind her. When the light died down, everyone was stunned to see Albenia still alive.
"Emily!" Goku yelled, taking off in the direction she went, whilst everyone kept their gaze fixed on Albenia, who was only missing an arm, but seething as gripped his limb and a light knitted the end of it so it was just ending in a stump.
"Stupid brat. She isn't related to that moron Radditz was she? That idiot was always doing that move." He growled, up in the air, a figure could be seen, everyone looked up to see Goku with Emily, who was now unconscious in his arms. He was narrowing his eyes now at Albenia as he slowly floated down and placed her on the floor. She had broken her arm, and was now sporting several deep gashes on her face.
"She was just a warm up to you wasn't she?" Goku asked, to everyone's surprise, Albenia nodded.
"Yes, she's a strong fighter, but wasn't powerful enough. Nowhere near your standards, I hope your next." He replied smirking.
"Yeah, I'm next alright. Only with me, I want to skip the warm up and go straight to the fight." Goku announced lunging at him.
"Sure, I'm all warmed up anyway." Albenia replied as he prepared himself for Goku's blows to start.
