Hana trained diligently with Vegeta, who saw a great improvement in her fighting. Goku welcomed her in his lessons with Uub. She made a great pupil and sparring partner. Goten joined in sometimes as well, enjoying the friendly competition. And true to his word, Vegeta began reading the diary and translating it for her.

Hana had just finished her morning workout with Vegeta when the doorbell rang. She went to get the door, while Vegeta made something to eat. She opened the door; it was Goten.

"Hey, Hana." He said. "Trunks home?"

"No, he went with Bulma for training at the CC Office." Hana said. "Some sort of tech training."

"Oh, well." He said. "I was going to go hang out with him, but I guess I should go...unless you want to get a tour of West City with me."

"Why not?" Hana said. "Your father's in Uub's village now, and I got nothing better to do."

"Really?" Goten said, his eyes lighting up.

"Yeah," Hana said. "I'll be back in a couple minutes."

She changed into the blue sweater and grey skirt and met him outside, saying goodbye to Vegeta, who waved her off. Goten waited and was mildly surprised to see her wearing something other than a gi.

"You look nice." He said awkwardly, his hand behind his back.

"Yeah, Bulma dragged me through the West City Mall to get 'normal' clothes." Hana said dismissively. "Ready to go?"

"You bet." Goten said. "Hop on."

"Hop on where?" Hana said.

"Nimbus, of course." Goten said. "Nimbus!!"

A yellow cloud zoomed toward them and stopped in front of Goten. He jumped on and motioned for her to follow.

"This is Nimbus. It was given to my dad by Master Roshi." Goten explained. "It's easy to ride, but there's one catch. You have to be pure of heart to ride."

"Pure of heart? Looks like we'll have to get a car capsule." Hana said doubtfully.

"C'mon. At least try to get on." He urged. "You'll only fall on your butt and look like an idiot if you can't ride it."

"That's so reassuring." Hana said sarcastically.

She offered her his hand. She took it and surprisingly didn't fall through.

"See? Nothing to worry about." He said. "Now let's go."

They spent the day at the park. There was a festival. Goten, in an effort to impress Hana did a strongman test, clobbering the scale. Hana tried not to appear impressed at his effort, but accepted the giant bear he won. She wouldn't admit it, but she was enjoying herself. Being around Goten lifted a chip she'd always had on her shoulder since her parent's deaths.

"I look ridiculous with this stupid bear." Hana complained. "It's bigger than I am!"

"Aw, Hana." Goten said. "It's a good luck bear. Besides, the guy didn't even want to fork it over, but I had rough him up a bit."

"Right..." Hana said doubtfully. "I really can't see you doing that."

"Fine, don't believe me." He said, crossing his arms.

"Okay, I won't." She said, grinning.

"Hey, I have an idea." Hana added. "This park is nice, but I know a better place we can go. Great view of the sunset."

"Lead the way." Goten said.

She nodded and took off, the bear on her back. Goten followed. The people around them rubbed their eyes and dropped their jaws. Apparently, they weren't used to flying people. Hana landed at a waterfall with Goten right behind her.

"Isn't this beautiful?" She asked. "Goten?"

Then, Goten made his move. He went behind her and pushed her into the water below. She fell in and bubbled to the surface.

"Goten! I'm going to kill you!" She yelled.

"You have to catch me first." He taunted, sticking his tongue out.

Hana hovered above the water and to the ledge. He was gone. She looked for his ki. 'Gotcha.' She said, smiling. She transported in front of Goten and transported them to the ledge. She pushed him, but he grabbed her arm, causing them to both fall in. They wrestled each other and then paused for a minute. Then, they broke out in laughter.

"It's gorgeous." Goten said.

"Told you the sunsets are beautiful here." Hana said.

"I wasn't just talking about the sunset." He said.

Hana blushed.

"Thanks for today." Hana said. "I haven't been this happy since my home was destroyed and I lost my parents."

"What happened to them?" Goten asked.

"My mother died of a rare heart disease, and my father died protecting Arlia against the Saiyans. He sent me to Earth when he learned of the attack. I never even saw my father's killer, but I did feel two kis on the planet before he died and saw them destroy Arlia." She answered. "I was alone for so long, even though a children's home found me and taught your language. Then, as a teenager, I found the pod I arrived in and figured out how to fly it, traveling from planet to planet to find his killer."

"That's why you were so revengeful at the tournament." Goten said. "I understand how hard it is losing a parent. I didn't meet my father until I was seven. He died fighting Cell, an evil monster who tried to destroy Earth."

Hana looked confused. Goku seemed alive to her.

"Oh, yeah." Goten said, scratching his head. "You see, my dad was dead, but he came back for a day and ended up getting a second chance to live through a kai, or sort of a guardian of the universe."

"Oh," Hana said. "At least you had your brother and mother. I had no one."

"You had no one then," Goten pointed out. "But now you have family and friends. Believe me, we're pretty stubborn when it comes to protecting family."

Hana didn't say anything. She just leaned back and closed her eyes, smiling to herself.

Meanwhile...

He watched the blinking image of Goten and Hana on the screen of his ship and slammed his fist on the control panel.

"She's alive?" He said. "I thought I disposed of her. Damn Saiyans, they just don't know how to die right. Well, this time she'll stay dead. I'll make sure of it."

The ship blasted off in the direction of Earth.

It doesn't look good for Hana and the others, does it? Next chapter, we'll see what the diary says and learn more about this mysterious villain. Hope you liked this chapter and, as always, tell me what you think. Keep reviewing!
