Chapter 14
10 months later
Athena got out of bed at 8 in the morning. She took a shower and get dressed. Then she went down stairs and made some coffee to try and wake her up. 'There must be something wrong,' she muttered, 'I never get up this early unless some one wakes me up.' She put her hand in her head, 'Man do I have a headache.' She got up and took some aspirin to help. She looked at her calendar and moaned, 'I don't want them to come today. I have a feeling things aren't going to go as they should.' She sat back down and put her head down. She drifted to sleep again. She woke up and freaked out because she didn't know how long she had been out. She looked at the clock and realized she had only been out for 5 minutes. She sat back down, 'Damn it, why am I so edgy today.' She took one more sip of her coffee and walked out the door. She took off in the air to go find Piccolo. She found him in the same spot where she usually found him, by the waterfall.
She began to levitate beside him, "So what's up with you today?"
Piccolo opened his eyes, "Nothing, just getting ready for the battle ahead."
She sighed, "That's nice. When do you suppose they will get here?"
"I don't know," he replied. He looked up at the sun and then with shock looked at her, "My your up early. Is every thing ok?"
"You know what," she shouted, "You, and every one else that has said that to me, can go fuck yourselves. Ok"
Piccolo held up his hands, "Ok. Ok, no wonder you sleep so late; your very cranky if you don't sleep late."
Athena crossed her arms. "Leave me alone."
Piccolo laughed, "You're the one that came to talk to me."
Athena rolled her eyes, "Yes, but no one asked for your opinion."
"Well I gave it to you anyway."
Athena climbed up a tree and sat down on the highest branch. She sighed as she looked at the water falling into the river. She closed her eyes and became at peace with her surroundings. Just then she had a vision: The battle with the saying would go accordingly until the fight with Goku and Vegeta. Yajirobe does not cute off Vegeta's tail as he is supposed to, but he runs away in fear. Vegeta kills Goku in the fight, and the saiyins win the fight. Athena came back to reality. 'Shit. I knew brining the moon back was a mistake. Just that one thing and it throws every thing off. I have to make sure every thing goes as it should,' she said clenching her fist. She spent the next 2 hours thinking of what she was going to do. She got tired of sitting around doing nothing, so she decided to go walk around somewhere other than here.
She waved to Piccolo, "See you later today Piccolo. Bye-Bye."
Piccolo waved back.
She walked around the forest aimlessly for an hour. 'Gosh there is nothing to do around here,' she shouted as she pounded her fists on the ground. 'I am so freaking bored!' She got up and looked to her side and saw the lake were she first made her appearance here. 'Well I might as well go for a swim.' She looked around to make sure there was no one around, and then she took off her clothes and dove in the water. She swam to the bottom of the lake and just floated there for a moment. Then she noticed something shinny in the sand. She swam towards it and picked it up. It was a tape recorder. She swam up to the surface to get a better look at it. She came up at about the same time Krillin was walking by.
Krillin noticed something in the water. He looked over and realized who it was, "At…Athena?"
Athena looked over and saw Krillin and her checks turned a little red. "What… what are you doing here?" she asked.
"I was just walking around, thinking about today, and then I just happened to notice you there."
"Oh," she said as she swam over to the edge. "So… are you going to let me get dressed with out an audience, or do I have to sit here and turn into a prune?" she said.
"Oh…ummm… sorry," Krillin said as he turned around.
Athena got out of the water and put her clothes back on. "Ok" she said, "You can turn back around now. Now what's on your mind?"
Krillin turned around and looked at her, "I don't know, I just have a bad feeling about today."
Athena smiled, "Don't worry, you'll live."
"And just how do you know that?" he asked.
"I have my ways."
"Well then do you know if we win?" he asked anxiously.
She smiled, "I can't reveal that kind of information. It could go to you head and the battle could turn out differently. You understand." She looked down at the tape recorder in her hand, "Well if you will excuse me, I have some preparing to do."
Krillin nodded, "Ok see you later."
"Bye," Athena said as she took off for her house. When she got there she went straight to her little personal lab she had added on to her house 3 months ago. The tape recorder had been in the water for so long it wouldn't play any more. She removed the tape inside and put it in one recorder. The tape was also almost completely ruined; she could only made out a few words. When she did hear something, the voices on the tape sounded so familiar; but the tape was so ruined she couldn't quiet put her finger on it. She gave up after an hour of trying. She went to her kitchen and cooked herself something to eat. She looked at her clock when she was done and it was about 1 o'clock. Then all of a sudden the sky went dark. Athena looked around in confusion, 'What the hell is going on?' She walked outside and in the distance she saw this enormous dragon. 'It that Shenron? Wow, I have never seen him before. They must be wishing Goku back now.' A few moments later Shenron disappeared and the sky went back to normal. Then Athena sensed 2 power levels enter Earth's atmosphere. 'Looks like their here.' She shrugged her shoulders, 'Well, better get going.' She took of towards the power levels. When she got there, the city where they had landed had been reduced to rubble. She looked around, 'This wasn't from the landing of the ships. It figures these guys would start to destroy everything in there site when they got here.'
She noticed Vegeta and Nappa in the middle of the burning city and flew over to them, "You assholes just can't help yourselves, can you"
They turned to her and realized who it was, "That's impossible, you're dead!" Vegeta shouted.
"No I'm not, I am standing right in from of you," she said with a smile.
"But Freiza told us that you died on that mission," Nappa said.
"Ya I know, Raditz told me that. Well, I did fail the mission, but I didn't die. I didn't go back, though, because I knew that Freiza would have killed me any way. So I came to Earth and made some friends, who should be coming to stop you any moment now."
Vegeta laughed, "Your friends think that they can stop us. What a laugh."
"I wouldn't get to cocky if I were you. There is another saiyin on this planet other than me. Don't you remember Raditz's mission."
"Ya but they were both killed. Weren't they?" Nappa asked.
"Yes, but he is coming back."
Vegeta laughed again, "You mean the 3rd class saiyin Kakarot. Please, we will have no trouble with him."
Athena crossed her arms and smiled, "That's what Raditz thought." Athena looked at the sky, "Oh look, here come my friends."
