IMPORTANT NOTE!!!! As I was writing this chapter... I had wanted to bring in Sakura's two little chibi brothers. Now... some of you may be thinking, Eh? It DOES state them in Chapter 4!!! I had to make sure that I stated them somewhere so it wouldn't be a complete surprise... I didn't even remember if I had put them in the fic... so I had to reread this story I had out so far... -; Another thing I had wanted to state was I messed up on the times... ! I've been in la la land due to summer school... I just took my second test this week! It's such a brain drain... But I wanted to apologize for any confusion I sent out! !

Chapter 22

One Week Later

Sitting on the back porch of Capsule Corp, Vegeta, Bardock, King Vegeta, and Raditz watched Goku as he walked onto the lawn as if looking for something with a magnifying glass.

"What are you doing out there Kakarot?" asked Raditz as he watched his brother.

"I bet he's looking for his common sense," stated Vegeta smartly. SMACK "OW!" exclaimed the prince as he rubbed a new bump that formed on his head. Bulma glared her husband once before walking back into the house with a newly dented frying pan. The men laughed when Bulma walked back into the house. Goku came back with a plate filled with fire ants.

All saiyans looked at him raising an eyebrow. "Why?" asked Vegeta.

"Because they're my new pets!" he exclaimed.

"An ant farm..." muttered the prince, "How exciting." Goku grinned.

"I had originally wanted to get a puppy, but Chichi wouldn't let me," stated the saiyan disappointed.

"I wonder why..." As if immediately, all saiyans looked to the sky, something big was coming to the Earth, a space ship. Tekego and Sakura's parents must be back.

And the ship landed. They all got up from their place at the porch and walked up to the space ship. Unfortunately for Goku, he began to yelp as the ants began to bite his hands... and it burned... bad. Ouch. The saiyan began to kill all of the ants with his ki energy and he frowned at the welts that were starting to form. "Stupid ants..." he muttered. The door to the ship opened, and out came a dozen saiyans. Literally, twelve came out, but there were ten new faces. All of the saiyans were men, no new women but Mrs. Skusbi, and they bowed respectfully before the prince and king when they were sighted. The king motioned them to rise.

Mrs. Skusbi walked up to the king and turned so she could face both the king and the saiyans.

"You're highness, these are the remaining survivors of our race." She looked back to the king, "They were babies sent off to purge planets... just like Kakarot, and have come back. All are very loyal to the house of Vegeta, and are at your service." The king nodded as he walked up to the soldiers. All were about the same age, in their late thirties or forties... But one who did seem younger than the bunch. The king faced him and spoke.

"Name."

The young man stood up strait, "Otogo."

"Age?"

"Nineteen."

"Class?"

"Second."

The king nodded as he looked to the other saiyans. "None of the classes matter until a new Planet Vegeta could be found." All saiyans gasped as they looked to the king, who just smirked, "We all are on Earth, are we not?"

It was at moment, laughter could be heard on the other side of the building coming towards the large group of people. They all turned as they noticed a small group of saiyans teens come towards them. Sakura was the one speaking, and gasping for air at the same times as she continued to laugh.

"I-I know! ha ha he said... he said... giggles MOO!" All the teens, even Tekego burst out laughing, faces turned red and blue from lack of oxygen.

"Ahem." All, still laughing, and even with tears falling down their eyes, turned up and stopped. It seemed to be completely silent until someone random coughed.

The teens at each other during the tense moment till they burst out laughing again this time Goten falling on the ground rolling around, Tekego holding his sides, and Sakura leaning on Trunks' shoulder for support. All saiyans eyed the teens strangely.

"Teens..." muttered the prince as the laugher seemed to die down again.

"Oh! You should have been there dad! It was too hilarious! That person was most defiantly a village idiot!" exclaimed Trunks wiping away a tear.

"SILENCE!" exclaimed Vegeta. That shut Trunks up. "These are the remaining saiyans in the universe that are known of." Goten, Trunks, and Sakura blinked as they noticed the new people. During that time, Sakura noticed her parents. She gave a nervous laugh.

"Hey mom... dad..." she stated nervously subconsciously backing up and trying to shove the hat down on her head more.

"Jueru, you cut you hair! Just as I had suggested before I left!" said her father with a smirk. A sweatdrop could be seen on the back of the teen's heads.

"Not exactly..." she stated back with a guilty smile.

"Then why does it seem shorter than last time?" asked her mother walking up to her, gazing at her eyes. Something didn't seem right to the saiyan mom. She then shrieked. "Your-YOUR EYES!" she exclaimed. "THEY'RE GREEN!" The teen blinked before she laughed nervously again. She placed a finger in her eye and pulled out a green contact.

"It's just a contact," stated the teenaged girl looking to her mom with one black eye and one green eye. She placed it back in her eye and looked back to her mother, "My vision is getting weaker."

"And that's not all..." muttered her brother. Sakura glared at her brother who stood behind her with a sly looking smile. He then 'tapped' the hat off of her head, and green hair tumbled onto her shoulders. There were many gasps as she visibly backed up from her mother who stood there frozen with her mouth dropped open. Looking over to her enraged father, Sakura gulped as she powered up as much as she could, which was to the brink of becoming a supersaiyan, and flew off as FAST as she could. Her parents just stared as her power level jumped and she vanished from sight.

The silence was broken with one angry father, "WHO TAUGHT MY DAUGHTER TO FLY?!"

Yep, Sakura would be dead if they caught her.

§±§±§

"Thanks for letting me hide out here..." thanked Sakura to Kent. "My dad is out to kill now..." Her face seemed to drop. The teenaged boy laughed nervously as he patted her on the back.

"I know exactly what you mean."

She looked up to him. "Not exactly..."

"Okay then..." he stated sitting beside her, "What's the difference?"

"My dad is one of the strongest men on the planet... since he isn't EXACTLY human..." Her face started to burn in embarrassment slightly.

"Exactly? Are you trying to say he's alien?" He asked her jokingly. Her head lowered and her cheeks reddened more. He didn't think she was serious! "Sakura?" he asked her softly. "Are you...?"

Her head dropped into her hands. "YES!" She began to sob in her hands. "I'm just a big freak!" she exclaimed. Sakura then felt an arm wrap around her shoulders, and she looked up.

"I don't think that... I think it's very neat that you are of a different species that of human!" he gave her a genuine smile. "What's your race called?" he asked her.

She gave a smile as she looked down into her lap, "Saiyan." She could hear Kent's choke as he looked to her in disbelief.

"You... you mean to say that... all of those 'special affects' for the play... are REAL?!"

She nodded, "Yes..."

"Wow..." he looked to the ceiling of his room. "I would have never thought I would be in a death situation... or very close to it for that manner..." She nodded once more.

"Yes, that's why Trunks, Goten, Tekego, and I are overly cautious with who's on the stage and when they come out... and so on and so forth... I didn't think they should be told this was a very dangerous play to put on... although we did warn them to do only what they were allowed to do... and nothing else... or they would 'injured'."

"But why not warn them? They DO have a right to know."

She gave a small giggle, "Simple. It would scare them away to know they were working along side with the 'Gold Fighters'." Sakura didn't get to see Kent's reaction due to her cell phone going off. She picked it up and raised a finger up to him as she answered it.

"Hello?" she asked in a deeper voice.

"Jolly Green Giant to Idiot JR... do you come in?" asked the voice.

"Jolly Green here..." she stated back blushing as she talked back into the phone.

"Oh man! You should have SEEN your dad!"

She rolled her eyes as she looked to Kent. "It's Goten," she stated bluntly before listening to her friend ramble on.

Goten continued, "I have NEVER seen a man so pissed! He almost went super! Isn't that great?" he asked excitedly.

"No! He could for sure kill me!" she exclaimed back into her phone.

"Heh... anyways, here's H.S.A." She sighed as she stood up from her seat on the sofa. She began to pace around as she heard the phone being handed to someone.

"Sakura... we have a problem..." he stated sternly. She frowned. "What is it?" she asked him as she looked to the floor as she walked.

"We still don't have anyone to play Chibi Vegeta and Goku..." Sakura froze as he eyes widened. She KNEW she had forgotten something! And the competition was tomorrow... She bit her lip.

"Why don't we just take out the parts?" she asked him.

"Cannot do. They're very important. I've already thought of that... but there's no way to alter the play that much... We've used replacements for the chibi's, haven't we?"

"Yes..." This wasn't good. Wait a moment... She snapped her fingers.

"What about my younger brothers?" Sure they were a year or two younger than what the part asked for...

"But they won't know what to do! Remember! We have a six hour bus trip to the competition, and we have to leave by 4 am to get there in time!" There was a brief pause before Trunks spoke up, "How about I get Mr. Ice to meet us at school? I know he can open up the cafeteria for us to rehearse in, and the only one's in the part are you, me, Frieza, and a chibi!"

"But what about the part for chibi Goku?"

"He's lucky there aren't any speaking parts. All the narration is done for him but we need the girl who plays Bulma... and the guy who plays Yamcha... and Krillin," replied Trunks.

"Okay... I'll call them and tell them about this last minute rehearsal thingy... And should we make it dress rehearsal? Should I call one of the make up artists for the chibi's?"

"Yes. I'll make sure Tekego comes along so we could get this right. I'll meet you in fifteen minutes." The phone went off and Sakura looked at it with a sigh as she turned her cell off. Kent looked back to her with questioning eyes as she smiles weakly.

"I've got some last minute drama work... I should get going now..." Before she left the room Kent grabbed her shoulder gently. She looked back to him, and he captured her lips into a gentle kiss. He pulled away shortly after that with a smiled on his face.

"Don't over work yourself," he stated to her as she stood there in shock. She was like a zombie when she left the house and closed the door behind her. She touched her lips and a smile broke out on her face as she blasted off into the air with a HUGE grin on her face.

"HE LIKES ME!"

I had planned on only writing about half of this chapter since I had a case of writers block... that was till about a few hours ago... :) But I am curious... would you like to read about this extra rehearsal or go strait to the bus trip? I wouldn't mind writing either one since I know it's going to be fun to write. Anyways... tell me what you think in a review. Suggestions are always welcome!
