TENKUU: CHAPTER 6

"You shall not find her!" The green haired woman yelled to the group. "If I must I shall destroy myself to protect her." The four surrounded the distraught senshi.

"You may suffer yes, but you will not die Pluto. Now where is she?" The red warrior stepped forward, to reveal a ball golden fire floating in her hand. Her eyes were filled with the same fire. "Tell us Pluto, where is she?" The keeper of time took a fighting stance.

"I shall not let you reach her."

"Very well..."

"You know for a blind chick, you can eat a lot!"

"Goten!"

"What she does." The little spiky haired boy lowered his head. "I was just trying to be nice. It was a complement." Tenkuu giggled. Even though she could not see the boy, she could tell that he was cute.

"That's okay Bulma, I think little kids should speak their minds." Bulma just shook her head.

"Trunks is in his room, Goten."

"K, Bye Tenkuu!" The hyper Goten ran out of the room.

"Bye Goten." Tenkuu waved in the direction that his voice was. "Bulma I was wondering..." she trailed of as a different feeling surrounded her. It seemed familiar but she couldn't remember it.

"Hey Bulma. Sorry for just dropping in on you. Goten was getting on Mom's nerves a bit." A very cherry voice laughed. Tenkuu just stared strait ahead, completely hypnotized by the voice. It was not just the Voice. It was how it vibrated, deep into her; it was like she was covered in a blanket of...she wasn't exactly sure what it was.

"Oh that's alright Gohan. You know you both are welcome here anytime."

"I know. I just…Oh! I didn't know that you had company!" Gohan blushed, feeling rather stupid that he hadn't even sensed the girl that was only a few feet away from him. Bulma laughed, mostly at how Gohan was reacting to the girl sitting in front of him.

"That is my fault. Gohan I would like you to meet Tenkuu. Tenkuu this VERY polite young man is Gohan." Tenkuu smiled, then stood up and looked in the direction where she assumed Gohan was standing.

"I don't think you should be sorry about that Bulma, I am sure he would have spotted me sooner or later." She reached out her hand and it seemed that her smile grew larger. "How are you doing Gohan?" Taking her hand in his, Gohan's blush seemed to grow darker. Though he could not reply and even if he did, Tenkuu wouldn't have heard him anyway. As soon as she touched his hand, Tenkuu saw a huge flash of light in her mind and voices began to surround her.

Vision

"You seem at a loss for words Pluto…What could be the reason for that?"

"I know!"

"What is it Venus?"

"Is it because she is dead?" Mars smiled. "Yes. That is exactly right." The other sailors began to laugh. Mars bent down and picked up a shard of glass that use to form Pluto's staff. "Now that I have found her….I have no use for you at all." She whispered.

End

Bulma watched carefully as Tenkuu slowly walked around the huge garden in behind Capsule Corp. It was Bulma's mothers pride and joy. Tenkuu smiled as she sank down into a sea of flowers. Her mind was at ease and she didn't even seem to care-at that moment-which she didn't know her name…or her past. Or the fact that she could not even see her own hand. Her heart was at peace. Or at least that is where she wished it to be. Tenkuu kept replaying the vision that she had. She desperately tried to make sense of the words…of the faces that seemed to haunt her dreams. The evil nameless faces that were in her mind…but not her heart.

During her vision, Gohan had carried her up to the bed that she had been occupying only hours before. He had stayed with her for what seemed like ever after Tenkuu had finally snapped out of her dream-like state. He calmed her down by telling her stories about a man named Goku, who was a martial artist. He had amazing powers, but he only used them for good. In fact, he had saved the world numerous times and had died twice because he had gone up against two monsters that were much stronger that he was. Tenkuu laughed at how this Goku acted. But she knew that it was all make believe.

She knew that no one could fly, or for that matter harness enough energy to destroy someone without even touching them. But she thanked Gohan none the less for cheering her up. Tenkuu tried to relax, getting the vision of the green soldier out of her head. Her mind drifted and she fell into darkness once again. This time there were no voices.

"Bulma?"

"Yeah?"

"Where did she come from?"

The sky-haired woman smiled softly, turning away from her computer screen she looked directly into Gohan's jet black eyes.

"She appeared out of thin air." Gohan just raised an eyebrow.

"Thin air?" Bulma nodded, then turned around and began to type on her computer.

"That is what Vegeta has told me. I on the other hand think it was something different. You see Gohan, as I was cleaning her wounds; I took a sample of her blood. I thought that I could use her DNA to find out where she came from. Here…" she turned the computer screen towards Gohan. "These DNA strands are intertwined and these for some reason are silver! Look…" Her fingers worked quickly to bring up several different screens. "This is a human DNA strand. This one is a Sayian DNA strand. Notice that they do look rather similar in almost everything. Just a few minor details, such as this strand here which retains the 'Ape' gene, and this set over here which holds the strength genes. But look at this, Ten's doesn't even seem to have these simple genes for things like hair or eye color. I do realize that her DNA is so advanced that I can not even separate and name any strand." Gohan nodded, not really understanding, but at the same time understanding enough that Ten was not of this world or even of this universe.
