A Voice

Part 2

Readers POV

Fionn was falling or so it seemed to her, but she suddenly opened her eyes and sat panting. She glanced around to find herself in some unknown place. There were trees all around her and there seemed to be no one around. She glanced down at herself and her eyes widened in shock. Her clothes had changed, she was now wearing purple trousers a black top and a purple jacket. It reminded her of someone's clothes (Mirai Trunks' if you hadn't guessed, sorry for the bad description) she had no idea where she had seen them before. She looked up at the sky and saw that it was day. She slowly stood unsure what to make of her surroundings. She pushed her black hair behind her ears. It framed her face she always kept it short hating how unwieldy long hair made her feel. She felt something that seemed to be coming close to her. She ignored it and instead started walking. She didn't care in what direction she went as long as she was doing something. Only the birds singing kept her company for the next few minutes. She was sent flying off her feet as the trees to her right exploded. She hit the ground hard dirt flying up around her. Fionn glanced around looking for what had caused the explosion.

Voices above her caught her attention and she looked up. Her brown eyes grew wide as she saw two people up there. They both reminded her of something, but she had no idea what. One was talking to the other,

"Vegeta be more careful. You've destroyed part of the forest." The other snorted,

"Kakarott do not concern yourself." He paused and then looked down, "Can you feel that?" The one he called Kakarott nodded,

"Yes, it's really strong. Let's investigate." Fionn felt slightly panicked they were looking for something could it be her? They could fly and who on earth did they remind her of? It came to her in a flash of inspiration as she saw them flying lower and lower. They were from Dragon Ball Z. An anime that she had seen occasionally in the past. Then how could she be here? She spun around to run as the two landed in the crater Vegeta made. That was when she received yet another surprise. She found herself looking at a tail that was connected to her. She took a deep breath and pushed it behind her. She could deal with this she just had to remain calm. Footsteps behind her sent her back into flight. She ran into the trees dodging low branches. Footsteps from in front of her made her freeze. How had that happened? How fast were they? She wracked her memories and knew from the programme they could go very fast.

Footsteps behind and ones in front she was trapped. What could she do? Indecision held her in place just a moment too long. Behind her the one called Vegeta spoke.

"Who are you? Identify yourself. You're a Saiyan? What are you doing here?" Fionn spun to look him in the face. He was across the clearing from her and he was frowning at her. Out of habit she put a hand in her pocket looking for her notepad, but there was nothing there. Then there was the other voice from behind her,

"Oh you found them. Wow look Vegeta he's got a tail." Fionn winced and turned to look at him as she did so his eyes widened and he blushed. "Sorry I didn't know you were a girl. So who are you? How did you get here? What are you doing here?" Vegeta behind her spoke up,

"I just asked her that Kakarott and she didn't tell me. I think she is up to no good. Feel her Ki." Kakarott merely smiled,

"Hey I'm Goku." She frowned confused her pitiful knowledge of DBZ did not tell her why he had two names. Vegeta growled,

"Stop ignoring me and speak girl!" Fionn just spun again looking at him. He seemed to lose it and flew at her knocking her flying into the nearest tree. Pains lanced down her back as she stood up. How could she explain to them she couldn't talk. Goku restrained Vegeta as he tried to attack her again. She flinched holding her hands in front of her and standing there vulnerable to attack.

"Vegeta don't do that again. She obviously isn't a threat." He released the shorter man who still glared at Fionn. Goku went over to her and touched her shoulder causing her to hunch even more. "Hey I'm not going to hurt you. I promise, just tell me who you are."

Fionn felt so frustrated and ashamed that she had flinched. She put her hands back at her sides and made sure her features showed no emotion. Goku was waiting for her reply, but there was no way she could speak. She looked at him and then opened her mouth, but no sound came out. He frowned and she began trying to show him through actions that she couldn't talk. He didn't seem to understand and she felt like hitting him.

"You can't speak." She turned to see Vegeta who had spoken and nodded. Goku looked shocked,

"I'm sorry." Fionn clenched her hands into fists it was those words again. The ones she hated more than any others. Thankfully Vegeta didn't say anything. Goku seemed to think and then spoke,

"Do you know where you are?" She shook her head, "Do you know where you live?" She shook her head again exasperated. At least there was some progress even if it was small. "Would you like to come with us? You can stay with us." Fionn nodded, but was unable to smile. Goku grinned nearly blinding her with its brilliance. "Let's go." Without any explanation he lifted her into his arms and flew into the air. Fionn's mouth opened in a silent scream as they left the earth far below. Everything seemed to be spinning. She had always hated heights. She closed her eyes unable to take anymore. Unconsciously she clung to Goku trying to hide her face in his chest. His comforting voice in her ear startled her, "Are you scared?" She nodded against his front unwilling to back off and look at him. "Don't worry we'll be there soon." She had no idea what happened for the rest of the trip hidden as she was.

Vegeta's voice made Fionn jump as he called out,

"Woman we're home and I'm hungry." Goku spoke to her gently,

"We're here you can let go now." Ever so slowly she looked around and saw they were on the ground. She let go of him and fell to her knees hugging the ground. He laughed at her and she glared. "This way." He walked into the building, which had Capsule Corporation written on the side. She followed slowly feeling a bit worried. She entered the building and saw a woman with blue hair, her name eluded Fionn. There was also a younger girl who looked about her age. Goku spoke,

"This is Bulma and Bra." The blue haired woman smiled,

"I'm Bulma and that's Bra Vegeta's daughter and you are?" Fionn looked hopelessly at Goku who spoke for her.

"We haven't gotten that far. She can't talk." The two women's eyes widened as they looked at her. Bulma suddenly looked as if she had an idea and left the room. Vegeta was standing arms crossed next to his daughter who smiled at Fionn.

"I'm sure we'll be great friends." There was no way to answer that so Fionn just stood unmoving. Bulma reappeared with a notepad and Fionn felt as if she was in heaven. The woman gave her the notepad and a pen.

"Here you go you can speak to us now." Completely ridiculously Fionn felt tears begin to fill her eyes. She had to blink them back desperately not willing to show her emotions.
