So here's the next part of my fic! Hope you like, I got a few good reviews and am hoping for more! Please send feedback! We left off with Sakura and Cristany eating ice cream and debating on who would win the match, I will continue from there (duh! LOL). Now, on with the fic!
NARAKU VS. VEGETA part two
The two went for ice cream, arguing the whole time on who would win the battle tomorrow.
After ice cream, the girls went home. They each had their own mini-marathon of their favorite warrior. Cristany sat watching her Dragon Ball Z and GT videos while hugging her Vegeta plushie. Sakura watched her Inu-Yasha videos, only the episodes including Naraku, as she held her Naraku plushie. They tried sleeping afterwards, but winded up remaining awake the entire night, too excited for sleep. Finally, at around four in the morning, the two slipped from their houses and made their way to the fairgrounds in order o be there as soon as the doors opened so they could find the best seats. They were truly dedicated fans.
"What are you doing here?" Cristany asked as she met Nicole outside the entrance to the large arena that had been set up in the fairgrounds.
"Waiting, you?" Sakura clung to her Naraku plushie.
"Same," Cristany hugged her Vegeta plushie.
And so the two waited until eight o'clock, when a man came out to greet them.
"And who will each of you be voting for?" he asked them.
(Sidenote: forgive the stupid, ridiculous dialogue above for the man, cuz I could think of nothing better to type. T.T)
"Naraku," Sakura answered.
"Vegeta," Cristany answered.
"Isn't it obvious!" they both inquired, holding up their plushies.
"Yes…anyway…" the man seemed uninterested. "Please, follow me."
Cristany and Sakura exchanged confused glances, then shrugged their shoulders and followed the man into the arena.
"Since you both arrived first and are rooting for opposing fighters, you both receive a bonus," (again sorry for the stupid dialogue) the man told the girls as he led them down one corridor and to another.
"A bonus!" Cristany and Sakura grew ever more excited, though they had yet to know it. Surely it was big!
"Yes, a bonus," the man confirmed. "You each win the chance to accommodate your fighter throughout the match, assuming they don't kill you before then. Your seats will be right up close to the ring, the foremost seats! You shall be the envy of everyone coming!"
"NO WAY!" the girls hugged their plushies very tightly to their chests.
"Yes way," the man led them into the arena portion of the stadium where the ring was set up. "Now, Blondie, come with me. Brunette, you stay here."
"Hey! We have names you know!" Cristany replied defensively. "I'm Cristany, and her…she's Sakura…"
Sakura stuck out her tongue at Cristany.
"Right…" the man seemed not to care. "Cristany follow me, and Sakura stay here."
The man led Cristany away, leaving Sakura to wander about the open arena. She stepped into the ring and went to the very center, spinning around slowly. Everything seemed so huge and she wondered how something so large could fit inside her town's small fairgrounds (but she also wondered the same thing about the fair as well). It amazed her.
Meanwhile, the man led Cristany away through a small doorway to the right. They walked to the end of the corridor, where there sat a door. On the door stood a label proclaiming "Vegeta" with a chibi face beneath.
Oh my god! I'm actually going to meet Vegeta! I can't believe this! This has got to be a dream! she thought, then said aloud, "Somebody pinch me."
The man who had led her to the door did as she said and Cristany gave a small cry of pain.
Guess that means I'm not dreaming…she thought. I can't believe this! I'm actually going to meet Vegeta!
The man knocked upon the door of the Saiyan Prince's room.
"What?" an irritated voice called sharply from within.
Cristany felt inside what must have been butterflies fluttering around in her stomach. She did not remember being this excited except during color and winter guard competitions. The feeling of anxiousness and excitement that almost made her sick now sprung to life.
"You, um…fan…is here," the man answered. (okay, forgive it, but this guy just has plain sucky dialogue. I've made him so flat.)
The door opened to reveal a shorter than average man with large spiky dark brown hair and who wore an irritated look upon his face.
"Who?" he demanded.
"You…fan…" the man answered hesitantly and in a small voice, frightened by the intimidating Saiyan prince, even though he stood a head taller. "She will be rooting for you during the match…"
"Won't everybody?" Cristany asked.
"I like her!" Vegeta smirked. "She's got the kind of attitude I like in people. Strong, proud, unafraid."
"Thank you!" Cristany put her hands upon her hips and acted proud, but ended up blushing nonetheless.
"I leave you then," the man started to walk off. "I must show…what's her name?…Sakura to Naraku."
The man returned to the arena, leaving Vegeta and Cristany alone. There he found Sakura standing in the center of the arena staring in awe at the surrounding stadium. He cleared his throat to gain her attention.
"Ahem, please follow me," he told her.
"Oh, sorry," Sakura said as she walked to the edge of the ring and jumped down beside the man.
The man led her off through a door on the left and down a dark corridor to a door covered in deep shadow. Upon it stood a label reading "Naraku" with a chibi face beneath and on the doorknob hung a sign that read, "Do not disturb or prepare to die a long, slow, and painful death." The man gulped before knocking upon the door, then he took off, leaving Sakura alone in the dark corridor. Sakura stood bravely before the door as it slowly opened to reveal a tall man with long black hair and red eyes narrowed in a death glare. He was dressed in a white baboon skin, the head of it resting over his left shoulder.
"What is it?" he asked in a deep voice, staring down his narrow nose at the short girl standing before him.
"Um…well, they say that the first two girls who show up having a different fighter in mind are allowed to accompany their fighter during the match," Sakura explained. "I…will be the one by your side…My name's Sakura…"
Naraku studied the girl standing quite calmly before him.
"It's nice to finally meet you," Sakura broke the awkward silence and extended a hand to Naraku with a smile.
Naraku stare at her for a moment longer, then he took the girl's hand and shook it. Sakura found herself smiling wider as Naraku shook her hand. She was surprised at how calm and collected she stood as a slight blush crept to her cheeks.
Naraku soon returned to his room, indicating for Sakura to follow, which she did.
Meanwhile, Vegeta had accepted Stephanie into his room and together they held a discussion.
And during that discussion, Vegeta and Naraku took the girls and did nasty things to them! Bwa ha ha ha! No, jk, that doesn't happen, but what does happen you will have to find out in the next chapter! Ha ha ha! I'm so evil! Maybe that's why I love Naraku so much, cuz I'm evil! Nah, actually my friend's call me the pure and innocent one (for real). So I'll stop ranting now and leave yah in suspense, awaiting the next chapter. Later!
