Ji's wish
We stared into each other's eyes. A chill ran down my spine and he slightly grinned. "Luana, please, let us help," Krillin begged.
"It's too late for that Krillin. I made a promise. If you try and help me, I'll have no choice but to strike you down." They all shocked not able to tell whether I was kidding or not. "So, please, for your own safety, don't interupt."
I did not want to hurt them, but a promise was a promise. As a little girl my mother always told me to always keep your promises. I would do as she taught me, even if it meant killing them. I just hoped they'd stand aside.
"Well then, shall we?" Ji said. "After you, Princess Luana."
"You'll regret that!" I snapped and in a flash I was gone. He chuckled quietly and vanished as well. The next moments they could hear loud bangs, of our fists hitting. When focussing hard enough they could see us, but still both Ji and I were moving at incredible speed. He was fast, I oughta admit it, but I would win! This time there was too much at stake.
"Prepare yourself for a trip to another dimension, sucker," I said when we paused for a moment, hanging still several feet above the ocean waters.
"Don't get your hopes up, although I must admit your powers have clearly increased tremendously, you are still no match for me. You're not breaking your promise if you surrender and hand over the dragonball."
"Over my dead body," I snapped.
"That, my dear Luana," he grinned. "Is the point."
Ji smacked me in the face, I could feel a tooth coming loose while he did so. While I turned away my head I could feel a burning pain at my throat for a moment. Quickly clutching for my neck I felt nothing.
Nothing...
I turned to Ji alarmed and saw my necklace dangling in Ji's hand. "Lost something?"
I reached out my hand. "Give it back." He held the tiny rock between thumb and indexfinger and observed it closely. "Ji, you son of a bitch, hand it over!" I snapped, rage starting to boil deep inside me. He smiled evily and squeezed the tiny rock firmly. I turned pale. "D-Don't...!" The rock shattered.
For a moment I did nothing but stare at the place the little rock had been. V-Vegeta's necklace... The last material proof I had a brother, a brother who cared for me... I clenched my teeth and warmed up my ki.
"JI! YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!" I cried a tear trickling down my cheek. My aura turned purple. "If you're so though Ji, then catch this!"
The other Z-senshi looked at me with wide open eyes. "What's she gonna do?" Yamcha asked still tightly holding our only dragonball in his sweaty hand.
Goku swallowed. "I know that attack."
"GALAC GUN!" I screamed and the purple ki-blest emerged from the palms of my hand, towards Ji who merely raised an eyebrow.
"Is that your great Galac Gun? My my, this is gonna be boring." He raised one hand and with a yawn, sent my very own Galac Gun back to me. I screamed when the purple light hit me.
"LUANA!" Krillin screamed as the explosion knocked them all off their feet. Yamcha pressed the dragonball against his chest, imagining what I would do to him in case he lost it. After the pressure of the beam had faded they crawled back up, staring at the pall of smoke in the air. When the wind blew it away I remained, beaten up. Scratches everywhere you could see, armor completely ruined.
"Just look at her!" Tien cried. "How much damage her own beam did to her! And Ji deflected it with one simple movement!"
I panted, completely drained. Every square inch of my body hurt, my sight was blurred and I was having a tough time catching my breath. My hair was brown again and so were my eyes. It had been such a great attack... He couldn't have blocked it, let be sent it back, he couldn't have.
"Y-You..." I groaned. "What are you?"
Ji said nothing, only casted me a pittiful look. "You chose death over a long and comfortable life. I still don't see why." I couldn't even see if he was chuckling or not. In pain I raised my hand. "Don't be a fool." A small beam hit me in the shoulder and I could hear it break. I screamed loudly and did my very best not to puke since I was starting to feel nauseous as well.
"I am asking you one more time, out of pitty, marry me," Ji said for the so maniest time. I shook my head and whiped away some blood from my mouth. "It's no use. You will marry me, Princess Luana. The only thing you are doing here is cause more harm to yourself." Through all my pain I found a way too chuckle anyway. "What are you laughing about?"
"Y-You really do want to wish for my love, don't you?" I grinned.
His eyes widened. I laughed out loud. "I don't believe it! That git Yamcha's right! You are wishing for my love!" I looked at him, shaking my head with laughter. "How sad is that?" A vein pumped on his forehead.
Down on the island everyone was staring at me. "She's beaten half to death and still she's laughing," Gohan muttered.
"You think she's right?" Krillin mumbled slightly alarmed. "Ji is going to ask the dragon for Luana to love him?"
"It does seem so," Piccolo grumbled.
Goku scratched the back of his head. "Well, isn't he a bit overreacting now? All this commotion just because he wants to marry her?"
"That's not the point," Piccolo said. "Just imagine, both their powers combined, they would make quite a team. And think how hard it would be to kill a friend." Krillin said nothing only looked at me, hoping more fiercefully than ever Ji would not get his hands on all seven dragonballs.
I was still laughing loudly at Ji. "Boy, you must be the most desperate guy in the universe! Wish for my love, did your daddy give you that idea?"
He chuckled. "You won't laugh much longer." As he raised his hand I was blown downwards and ended up in Piccolo's arms.
"You okay?"
"I don't need your help, Namek." He dropped me.
"As you wish." Slowly the pain returned, harder than before.
"I assume you surrender?" They all looked back at Ji. I just sat there on the ground moaning and groaning in pain, not even able to raise my head.
Krillin kneeled down beside me. "Are you alright?"
"I think I'm gonna puke..." I muttered and he assumed that was a 'no'.
Goku sighed. "Yes, we surrender," he cried to Ji and looked at Yamcha. "Give him the dragonball." Yamcha nodded and was about to throw the dragonball to Ji as a small beam hit his hand. He shrieked and dropped the dragonball onto the ground.
"What did you do that for!" he cried holding his burned hand.
"We are not surrendering," I hissed and lowered my hand.
"Luana, we don't have a choice," Goku said starting to lose his patience.
"Y-Yes we do," I groaned and pulled myself up at Krillin. He clasped my arm and I looked at him.
"No," he said softly staring at me intensely. "We don't." I looked at the others who were all still intact compared to me, a broken, beaten, little girl. I lowered my head and accepted my defeat. Goku nodded at Yamcha who once again threw the dragonball to Ji. He grabbed it with one hand and smiled delighted.
"Thank you very much. You're all invited to the wedding."
"He's kidding right?" Tien mumbled raising an eyebrow.
"I'll see you around, Earthlings," Ji said waving and then flew off.
"Puh, show off," Yamcha muttered after Ji had disappeared out of sight. I breathed in deeply trying to supress the nausea and was holding myself up at Krillin's shirt.
"So, now what?" I asked them. "There goes our only dragonball." Yamcha took a few careful steps away from me and held his hand tightly.
"Don't worry, there are still two dragonballs left," Goku assured me. "While you rest up a bit, we'll go find them."
"Yeah... that's cool," I mumbled and they all looked surprised that for once I didn't object on resting up.
"You're really beaten up, aren't you?" Gohan asked.
I nodded slightly. "Yeah, now Krillin, would you be so kind to escort me to the nearest toilet, cause I'm really gonna puke." Krillin quickly lifted me up and ran inside.
Goku scratched the back of his head. "There's something different about Luana, I can feel it, but just can't seem to place it..."
"What does it feel like?" Tien asked but the Saiyan shrugged.
"I don't know."
"Well, we'll have to think about that one later," Yamcha stated and could hear some silenced vomitting sounds coming from inside. "First we have to make sure we find those dragonballs before that Ji does." They all nodded and shot into the sky.
