AUTHOR'S NOTE: This chapter marks the beginning of MPV, multiple-points-of-view.
NEW CAPSULE CORPORATION- Gravity Room June 14th 1:23 P.M.
Harry dodged the first, he grabbed at the next kick, but it penetrated his grip and hit his chest, knocking him to the ground. He jumps back up as another kick heads for his skull. He charges at his opponent and tackled her. The girl throws Harry off of her and threw a couple of Ki blasts at him.
Harry barely dodges them and throws a few punches after charging. Pan dodged all of Harry's attacks and kicked him backwards. Harry struggled to rise again, but Pan gave him no chance to recuperate, she struck at him with fierce punches, sending him crashing back into the ground.
Pan powered up and sent a barrage of Ki blasts at Harry. Harry stares at the blasts in shock, then quickly runs from them. He gets blasted by two he wasn't able to dodge. He groans in pain and tries to stand. He immediately falls back down, passing out.
"Whoa Pan, you're getting stronger.", Trunks' voice broke through the silence of the after-battle. Trunks stood, leaning against the wall, surveying the mess. Pan looked around and saw the destruction. The floor would definitely need to be repaired, as would the four walls. Pan grinned at Trunks.
"Of course I'm stronger! This world has less gravity! I feel great!", exclaimed Pan happily.
"Ow!", moaned Harry clutching his head. He stood up and saw Trunks looking at him. Harry had been here for about a week now, and according to Bulma he had the ki that Vegeta had when he first came to earth.
"Don't be a baby Harry!", mocked Pan.
"Right then.", grunted Harry holding in his throbbing pain.
"Well Harry, you realize that your strength is raising abnormally fast, right?", questioned Trunks.
"You mean you all didn't advance this quickly?", asked Harry.
"Nope.", replied Trunks.
"Wow. That's interesting.", replied Harry. Harry's wounds were already disappearing.
"Yep, abnormally fast.", repeated Trunks, staring at Harry's healing wounds. "So… uh, you're sure there was no Saiyans in your world before now?"
"Yes, I've told you.", replied Harry exasperatedly. And he had told Trunks too, but Trunks kept on pressing it. "Now will you tell me what you're on about?"
"Well… you've been progressing so quickly, and you've been consuming more food lately… I think… you may have Saiyan blood.", rushed out Trunks in one breath.
Harry looked over to Pan, and both Harry and Pan busted out laughing. Pan held her sides, and Harry fell onto his back in laughter.
"No, really, you might!", insisted Trunks. Pan and Harry stopped laughing and looked at Trunks.
"You really think so?", wondered Pan aloud. Trunks nodded his agreement. Pan bit her lip gently, thinking of Harry being a Saiyan.
"It would be impossible.", protested Harry. Pan and Trunks didn't look convinced. "Fine, look, I'll prove it. I'll try and go Super Saiyan!", declared Harry. He began to power up.
"Wait! Harry, you need to have a need! You won't be able to transform without needing to, at least at first!", shouted Trunks over the hum of Harry charging up.
"Right.", whispered Harry. "A need. Let's see…. Okay." Harry began to think of Sirius falling through the veil in the Department of Mysteries. He imagined and focused on his sadness, and his anger.
He then thought of his fourth year at Hogwarts. He thought of Cedric being murdered before his very eyes. He pictured every single victim in his mind, he thought of his own parents. He even thought of the Chamber of Secrets. Suddenly, Harry felt faint.
"Ugh….", groaned Harry as he opened his eyes. He saw no one was around. He sat up and saw that he was in the Recovery Room. He reached for his glasses and put them on. He couldn't see anything. "Huh?", he murmured confusedly. He swung his legs over the edge of the bed. He jumps off the bed. Suddenly a light tremor went through the ground.
Harry jolted in shock of the small quake. He took his glasses off and while he could see, he didn't think his eyesight was better. "I just need new glasses is all.", he muttered to himself.
He walked a few steps and fell crashing to the floor. His eyes widened in surprise, and he gasped as his vision went white.
CHICAGO June 14th 3:12 P.M.
He jumped off of the creatures back. He surveyed the grandiose buildings with disgust. He had no idea why he was here. He just wanted to kill something, and then his world crashed around him. His name is Toshiro Umezawa and he was a Ronin. He was a samurai with no master.
He drew his sword and killed the creature that had bore him to this large crowded city. He reveled in the color of the blood and started to chuckle. After he slaughtered the beast he gathered the meat and began to fly, using his current high.
After a while though, his levitating spell was ending and he was back to his normal brooding self. He jumped from the ending cushion of air onto the top of a tall building. He sat down and started a small fire with the blood on his hands. He then licked his fingers clean and began to cook some of the meat.
He was halfway through his meat when he was attacked. A huge snake-like creature was destroying the city. Toshiro couldn't even draw his sword! His face set into a determined look as he prepared to cast spells at the huge creature.
Toshiro started to use a very special spell that would get rid of this creature and any of his family from this world. Unfortunately the creature roared and struck at Toshiro. Toshiro converted the spell and brought to life the creature he had killed. The bird flew and grabbed Toshiro in its talons and flew him away.
After the bird had bore Toshiro far enough, it dropped him and landed, scowling the bird spoke, "Well? What in the name of Teroh were you thinking?"
"Teroh? Who's he?", asked Toshiro lightly, rubbing his backside. He had landed rather hard.
"Teroh was a grand leader who sacrificed himself to rid the world of some swamp scum.", snarled the bird.
"Now now, Kyler, I'm a swamp scum, so I'd watch who you're insulting.", Toshiro chided.
Kyler just snarled. "You know what scum? I think I'll leave you now! See how you'll get around without me!"
"Oh? I just brought you back to life. I can send you back to death!", snarled Toshiro in anger. He had his hand on his sword.
"And I'll just send it straight back at you!", snarled the bird-man. He could use his powers to prevent damage that would kill him.
"Ah! But what of your collar, little bird?", sneered Toshiro.
"Bite me!", snapped Kyler in anger. Toshiro just laughed. "What?", demanded Kyler.
"Oh, I already bit you, bird!", sneered Toshiro.
"Do you mean to tell me, after you senselessly murdered me, you ate me?", screeched Kyler in pure rage. Toshiro grabbed his sword and knocked Kyler out.
"Yep.", answered Toshiro as he walked off, leaving the bird where he was. He had taken the collar off and left a note saying "Thanks".
LONDON- Mall June 15th 12:23 A.M.
Ron jolted upright. Ever since Harry had left. Ron had been planning his escape. He had gathered his things and was taking Hermione with him. He went over to where Ginny and Hermione were sleeping and quietly woke Hermione up.
"Is it time?", she asked quietly. Ron nodded to her and she grabbed her bag with her stuff.
The two of them quietly snuck out of the barricaded building. The Triple Alliance that had been forged was starting to get used to their war. So far they had liberated the entire block.
Because of that fact the two were able to sneak into the sewer system rather easily. The two were disgusted by going down there, but so far it was the only way to leave. The Triple Alliance had no idea of sewers, as they were more concerned with the visible paths.
"Ron! What's this?", called out to Ron who was walking behind her. He walked up and stared at the strange orb.
"I dunno. Is it magical?", Ron asked of Hermione.
"I'm not sure, but I think so.", Hermione reached down and picked it up. Instantly it changed into an amulet. "Whoa.", she muttered. She carefully put it around her neck and continued on. "Whatever it is, I'm keeping it."
"Right.", replied Ron distractedly. Hermione noticed and sighed, wishing that Harry had never left. She knew that if they didn't get away fast, they'd never find their friend.
"Ron, do you think Harry is fine?", Hermione asked worriedly.
"Huh? Oh, yes, I'm sure. I mean, he can take care of himself. I just want to help him with whatever he's doing. It seems like he thinks this whole mess is his fault. I need to whack him 'cross the head and tell him that its not.", replied Ron.
"Yeah, I suppose.", replied Hermione unsurely.
Ron grabbed her shoulder and turned her around gently. "Hermione, what is wrong?"
"I-I'm not sure… but I think I love Harry.", replied Hermione quietly.
"Oh?", smirked Ron. "Really now? I'll have you know that we all love him."
Hermione gasped in surprise.
"Yeah, it's weird isn't it?", smirked Ron. "He's always an ass, but we love him."
"Uh… are we talking about the same thing?", Hermione asked in surprise, raising her eyebrows.
"Yes, I love Harry as a brother, even though I already have to many as it is!", replied Ron.
"No… no I mean I think I love him. You know… as in love, love.", replied Hermione blushing.
"Oh…. Oh! I get it…. You want to caress his face and snog him all night long!", laughed Ron.
"Ron, that's not funny! I just… I don't know…. I'm just confused about the whole thing. I just wish… I just wish I could have told him earlier.", she replied blushing.
"So you love him but you don't know what to do about it?", asked Ron.
Hermione laughed and replied. "Yes, that's exactly it…." Ron chuckled. "It's just… confusing. I half want to kiss him and half want to hug him. I'm just not sure which!" Ron and Hermione shared a laugh.
"Well Hermione, we'll just love him together, though… you'll love him in a different way!", chuckled Ron as he scratched the back of his head.
"Yeah, I suppose so.", Hermione replied gloomily.
"What's up Hermione?", Ron asked.
"Well… I'm not the only one who's enamored with Harry. There's Ginny, Luna, and, if you'd believe it, Tonks.", muttered Hermione.
"Whoa….", commented Ron as his eyebrows rose in surprise. "I didn't know Tonks was a pedophile."
Hermione started laughing. "No… she's just in love as well."
"I know, I was just joking.", replied Ron kindly.
"Yeah, well, anyway, thanks for helping me out.", muttered Hermione.
"No problem Hermione, no problem.", Ron repeated as they both traversed the winding, dark, stink path known as sewers….
