Last time: Bailey is some how transported into the DBGT universe. Now all she wants to do is find a way home, but how.


Chapter 2 - An Ordinary Day

Bailey was starting to get used to the Son family. She had been there, not counting the week she had been passed out, for two weeks and the worst of the home sickness was gone. Once the three of them had been able to sit down, they had come to two conclusions. She was either from far, far into the past, or from a different dimension. Bailey, at first, had completely rejected both. She had to be dreaming, but after they both spent an hour convincing her, she had to face the reality. Whatever had happened, wasn't a dream.

Life was fairly normal. Other than the extremely sophisticated technology (Her favorite of which was these small "capsules" which could carry huge object) the world she was in now was a lot like the one she had left. Goku went to school, like any normal teen. They had malls and grocery stores, and they lived in the same basic lifestyle that her world did. There were a few differences. For example, not all the people were humans. Bailey had been shocked to see half human beings walking around. Some looked like walking cats or dogs. The other weird thing was something that had nothing to do with the outside world, but the Son family in general.

At first Bailey had thought she was imagining things. They seemed to have inhuman strength (Pan would be constantly beating Goku in the head with a frying pan), but at the same time she realized that she was not dreaming, she had to come to terms that the Sons were not human. Maybe she should have been scared of them when they told her their history, but she hadn't been. Looking back she decided that the reason that she trusted them, even after finding out they were aliens, was because they had taken care of her for a week when she had been unconscious. If they had wanted to kill her or eat her or what ever sayjins do, they would have done it already. Besides it made her feel better, to know that she wasn't the only weirdo in this world.

To make things even better, Goku and Pan went out of their way to train her. Goku did it in secret. His techniques were like the ones found in movies, and Bailey caught on extremely quick. Pan on the other hand was all about strength, something she was lacking in. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't do any 'ki' thing, or physical thing. Goku kept reassuring her that that was ok. As long as she remembered what he had taught, she could be against the strongest person ever, and still win.

During these lessons, Bailey kept feeling that sense of deja-vue. The names of moves such as the kamehameha she could have sworn she had heard somewhere. And it almost felt like she had been here, or heard stories about being here. The weirdest was when they mentioned something about their ancestors. Bailey got this feeling that she knew them, that she had met them. But she always buried this feeling. They obviously didn't know her. So how could she possibly know them?

She thought that they had seemed a little shocked at her ability to except them so easily. Indeed the morning, exactly two weeks since she had woken, Goku was asking if she was really ok with their secret.

"Yes, how many times do I have to tell you?" Bailey sighed, as she watched the Sons inhale their food.

"Well, today is the first day you'll be out in public. I'm just worried that you'll not be able to take the pressure of this type of secret." Goku said between mouthfuls of food. Bailey had, at first, been disgusted at their table manners, but you got used to it fast enough. If her mother had been here, she would have died of disgust.

"Don't worry. I've never told a secret, and I don't plan to start. Besides, I have a secret too. If they found out about you, then they would find out about me." Bailey said as she pushed away her porridge. She wasn't really hungry, she was too nervous. Today she was going to school with Goku. Technology was so advanced here she was scared that they would be expected to know more here then back home. Perhaps making them enroll her wasn't a good idea. Bailey was naturally smart and hated to get left behind in school work, but what if she wasn't smart enough. What if things worked differently here? "I need to go brush my teeth." Bailey said as she left the table.

On the walk, Bailey was so nervous that Goku had to save her from being hit by a car at least three times, and that's not counting the truck. "Are you sure your ready for this?" Goku asked as they arrived at the front doors.

Bailey merely nodded and took a large step forward. Right into the door. Pull not push! Bailey thought as she then opened the door. She immediately wanted to run and hide. The walls and people seemed to normal enough, but Bailey couldn't help but feel out of place. Like she had stepped into a different dimension or something... oh wait she had. This is wierd! Bailey thought. "Remember, even though you are still Bailey Lydia Leflet from Smiths Falls, you were home schooled. Your parents decided to let you come to a public school, so they sent you to live with us, because we're family friends. … Are you ok?"

Bailey almost laughed out loud. Whispering sharply at Goku she said, "Am I OK? AM I OK? Are you freaking nuts? I shouldn't have convinced you guys to make put me in school. What if I don't know what you guys know? What if everything I know isn't right here? What if I get lost? What if I say something stupid? What if I trip? What if they find out about me? What if…"

"Bailey!" Goku said firmly, Bailey shut up and looked at him, "Breathe." Bailey nodded and started to gulp in air like a fish.

"Goku, there you've been. Why wouldn't you train with me last night? And what's this about some girl living with you?" A guy with even larger hair then Goku walked up. He looked… menacing. Bailey automatically took a step toward Goku.

"Hey Vegeta," Goku said. But Vegeta wasn't paying any attention. He looked pointedly at Bailey and then back at Goku. The message was very clear. Who is this stupid, useless, pathetic girl? Bailey straightened her shoulders and put on a big smile as she stepped forward.

"Hello, I'm Bailey. I'm new here and you are … Vegete, was it?" She asked politely, smiling even more when he grimaced. Serves you right for looking down your nose at me, she thought.

"It's Vegeta." He grunted. Goku seemed to be ready to burst. He was shaking at the effort to hold in the laughter.

"That is, like, way too hard to remember…I know, I'll call you Veggie." Bailey said in her most cheerleader-like voice. Vegeta grunted.

"Meet me at CC bring her if you must," he said as he stormed a way. Goku and Bailey made eye contact and burst out laughing. But Bailey, like so many times in the past few weeks, had that uneasy feeling of recognition, but try as she might, she couldn't think of why.

"What's so funny Goku?" A large man asked, from behind him. The man reminded Bailey of a teenage Santa, without the beard and a brunette. So maybe not Santa, but he had that 'Jolly old St. Nick' aura to him. Goku grinned and clasped hands with the newcomer.

"Puck, this is Bailey. She's a family friend. Bailey, this is Puck."

Bailey stepped forward with a sincere smile this time. "Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you." She greeted, holding out her hand, which he shook, in a nice firm hand.

"Yeah. Goku was saying something about you before. So…are you two an item?" Puck asked with a gleam in his eyes.

"What! We aren't a couple!" They yelled, then looked at each other. They couldn't deny they were attracted, but that didn't make them a couple. They turned away blushing. Puck was laughing hard as the bell sounded.

Goku looked back at Bailey. "We got you in all my classes, so that way you wouldn't be alone."

"Thanks," Bailey said as she followed Goku down the halls, to her first lesson.


By the end of the day, Bailey was buzzing with excitement. Back home she had found the lessons boring and here the lessons were boring, but they were challenging. And Bailey loved a challenge. Though, she had been surprised at how smart Goku was. He didn't give off an intelligent air, but he was a genius. The way he knew things when the teachers asked them questions, was almost like he knew before they asked. A weird thought.

Goku and her were discussing the pop quiz they had been giving, when a thought entered Bailey's head. She had spent all this time at the Son house and she had never met Goku's parents. "Hey Goku?" Bailey asked quietly.

"Yeah, what?" Goku asked, looking over smiling.

"Where are your parents?"
