Chapter 10
"Ugh. What time is it?" Cellina clawed to her feet and slummed herself into the shower. Afterwards, she felt refreshed and awake. She danced into her room in nothing but a small towel covering her naked body. She soon regretted that...
"Morning." Cellina froze in her moment of immaturity and turned to see Cooler. He was leaning against her bed poster and posed like a jock she once knew from school. "Sleep well?"
"Erm, yes thank you." Cellina wrapped her arms around herself, now conscious of what she was wearing. "I didn't expect to see you here, in my room." she smiled at him sheepishly and tiptoed towards the bathroom. She paused only to take her clothes she had prepared for herself the day before and entered the bathroom.
"Well I am here and I wanted to take you to breakfast." Cooler raised his voice slightly so Cellina could still hear him from the bathroom. "How long will you be?"
"No time at all." Cellina entered wearing a long dress. It was Green and silk like in texture. It had no sleeves and was a full length dress. It covered her legs and feet from view. It was more of a casual dress than anything else. That is why she wore it. "Shall we leave?" She waited for an answer but Cooler simply scowled at her and opened the door. He waited for her but looked like he didn't seem pleased about it.
They walked down the hall in silence. He had brushed off every type of conversation Cellina had tried to make with him and even avoided looking at her. When they arrived there were many tables. One table was a blur of Pink, they looked to be Birds of some sort. Bird people that is. She mentally slapped herself for gawking at them and looked to the next table. They were all white, purple and pink. They were all Changelings and Cooler left her to sit with them. She saw that there was no room left so she looked over to the next table. This one was even worse than the last. It was filled with Saiyans. Now that wasn't a problem as such, but all four of them were male. All, but one. She was small, had big brown eyes and long ebony hair. She had lots of freckles and looked dorky, but she was still quite pretty. She looked very uncomfortable and was squeezed between the Saiyan males and they looked to be sniggering at her. Something deep in Cellina told her that she had to save her. She went to the canteen, took a bowl of fruit and walked up to this small Saiyan girl. She looked up at Cellina and looked shocked. Cellina turned slightly and brought her tail into view. The smaller girl smiled, realising she was Saiyan and budged up to give her room.
"Hello, my name is Kyaime. I am 20 moons and I came here with my brother. What's your name?" Cellina placed her tray down and smiled at Kyaime. She was the same age as her and now she had someone other than Cooler to talk to, well, if he was even talking to her anymore.
"I am Cellina. I am also 20 moons and I arrived here yesterday. I have no siblings and my dorm room is number 666."
"OH, my room is 600. I live down the hall from you. Maybe we could meet up sometime. You are always welcome in my room."
"Ok Moet. I need to talk to my sis and erm, who is this?" A tall man with short black hair that spiked forwards sat next to Kyaime. He leaned over and looked straight at Cellina. He had been talking to another Saiyan called Moet when he had joined the conversation.
"Hi Kyto. Oh Cellina, this is my brother Kyto. He isn't as mean as he looks but kicks ass in battle. He is 22 moons and lives in 601, next to me."
"Well, nice to meet you Kyto. I am Cellina."
"A peasant?"
"I beg your pardon?"
"Don't you have a title?"
"Of course, but you were not introduced with your title so I did not use mine. I am sorry. I am Lady Cellina, daughter of Lord Vegeta, overseer of the Saiyan race and planetary council."
"Wow shit." Kyto bowed immediately and almost fell off his feet.
"Have I said something wrong?"
"No, I didn't know who you were, I apologise. I am Master Kyto and this is my sister, Lady Kyaime, children of General Kishna of the third division. I didn't know who your father was. He rules our entire race since he was elected about 6 years ago. He was the best thing that ever happened to our people. I didn't know, I am sorry."
"Please, who my father is should not make you give me respect. Remember, titles are important when it comes to rank and armies, but when it comes to combat, who you are matters more than where you come from." She stopped herself from grinning from reciting what Majin Buu had told her.
"Wow, that is really cool. Hay I have to introduce you to the other guys. HAY GUYS, LISTEN UP WILL YA!" the entire table turned round and watched Kyto. "Ok, firstly, this dude here is Moet. He is my main man when it comes to most things. He is a bastard in battle though. Friendship means nothing when it comes to training with that guy." Cellina examined the man that nodded and grinned at her. He was tall, had long hair and brilliant blue eyes. His hair black like every other Saiyan male was, but it was tied back in a ribbon and was smooth. He had lots of muscles, but not as many as Majin Buu he he.
"Nice to meet you miss."
"Hey, don't call her miss man! This is the daughter of Lord Vegeta, THE Lord Vegeta." Every person on the table, minus her Kyaime and Kyto, took notice and beamed at her. Apparently her 'father' was well known and respected among his people.
"I am Gohan." She sprang round to where the voice had come from. The man at the end of the table was indeed Gohan. He was identical in every way except that he was only 18ish here. That and he was too muscular to be the Gohan from her dimension. He spoke again. "It has been too long that my father and yours have prevented our meeting." Gohan got to his feet and took her hand. They shook hands but when she tried to take her hand back, he wouldn't release it. She felt his grip tighten and squeeze her hand. She held back a laugh. He was obviously trying her, sizing up her strength. She didn't react as it didn't hurt. But when she saw his face show that he was trying really hard she decided that she should submit. If not, he would want to fight her and even worse, he might want to mate with her. Vegeta hade told her that the one thing that Saiyan males looked for in a mate was strength and loyalty. And sometimes not even loyalty. So if she was to come across at really strong, she might find that her name was on the wish lists of people other than Cooler.
"Ahh." She faked a whimper and he released her.
"HA, child of Vegeta indeed."
"Indeed." Kyaime had been watching her throughout the entire 'test' and saw the calmness on Cellina's face. She knew full well that she had faked being hurt and wanted nothing more than to rub it in Gohan's face. "Why did you do that Cellina?"
"Do what?" Cellina saw the evil twinkle in her eye and thought to change the subject before the others found out that she was stronger than she looked. But she wasn't fast enough.
"I meant, why did you pretend to be hurt by Gohan? He wasn't hurting you at all, I could tell. I know a fake out when I see one."
"You where what?" Gohan turned to look at her. He looked excited and intrigued. "What level are you at?"
"Level?"
"You know, level of strength. Surely you will know your own strength level."
"I am sorry, but no."
"Well then, I don't know about you but, I think I know what we're doing today guys. Let's test the newby."
"AWSOME I love it. And me and Moet can spar. I am feeling lucky today and I might win."
"Might being the right word."
"Oh come on Moet, I am not that weak."
"Oh yes you are."
"Am not!"
"You want me to prove it right here!"
"BRING IT!"
Moet and Kyto launched at each other and were brawling on the floor. Kyaime, Gohan and Cellina got to their feet. A huge crowd soon gathered around them watching at the 'fun.'
Only Cellina wanted to stop them. Blood was flooding from Moet's nose and from Kyto's mouth. She didn't want to watch anymore. She pushed them aside and stood bang between them. They instantly stopped and looked at her angrily.
"What the hell do you think you're doing? Get out of my way. NOW!" Kyto launched at her to move her aside, however his hands didn't move her. She stood still and focused on her task, disperse the fight.
"DO NOT TOUCH ME!" she screamed and punched him flat in the face. He as send recoiling backwards into the wall. She turned round to see a very confused Moet. "IF YOU EVEN TRY ANYTHING I WILL DO THE SAME TO YOU. NOW BEAT IT AND STOP FIGHTING." She took a fighting stance. "Or I will stop you. Your choice." Moet looked over to the bloody mess that was Kyto and knew instantly that he didn't want to become anything like that.
"Alright but you are no fun. But, I will invite you to hang with us for the rest of the day. I tell you now; I did the same amount of damage to him the first time we met, ever since, he has insisted we fight so he can get stronger. So do not be surprised if he starts asking you to spar with him."
"I would like to hang with you and the others. Will Kyaime be there?"
"Well, we invite her but she doesn't." he was cut off.
"I go. I am going if you are. We female Saiyans need to stick together. There are only two of us after all."
"Really? Only two?"
"Yep, so let's go, eat our grub and then we will get ready. I have a fighting suit, do you?"
"Yes I do. In that case" Cellina turned to a calmer Moet who had been joined by Gohan. "I will follow Kyaime's plan and then I will join you later. I suggest now that you have calmed yourself that you go and sort out Kyto. And please." She stopped Gohan as he went to pass her. "Tell him I am sorry."
"I will. See you later." the Saiyan males vanished and that left only Kyaime and Cellina. The returned to their now empty table and Cellina ate her fruit.
"What is that?" Cellina turned to Kyaime and saw her pointing to her bowl of fruit.
"My breakfast. Why, what is wrong with it?"
"It is fruit. Only royalty eat fruit for breakfast, or at all. Why are you eating fruit?"
"I like fruit. But please. I wish to eat it before it goes off."
"K"
They returned to their meals and as Cellina finished she saw that Kyaime had been eating a joint of meat. For her breakfast? Oh well.
"Are you done?"
"Yes, let's leave."
"Hey Cellina? Could I come to your room? I am going in this so I don't need to change, besides. I have seen what those guys get up to so I can help you with what is and what isn't appropriate to be fighting in. k?"
"Ok, I do not mind if you simply wished to come any..." Cellina's attention had been stolen from her new friend. Someone she had met before had entered the canteen. He was tall, muscular and bright pink. That's right.
"And what pray tell, is he doing here I wonder?"
"Oh, that's that new Guy. He beat up loads of elite soldiers last night and King Kold himself had to break it up. Afterwards, he offered him a place here in return for his services. I heard that he has a crush or fixation with a girl so he accepted. I wonder who she is."
"I wonder...oh my!" Majin Buu closed his eyes and sniffed at the air. He smirked and opened his eyes so he was looking straight at her. "I do believe he is coming over here."
"WHAT!" Kyaime took Cellina's hand and literally dragged her out of the canteen backwards. She saw Majin Buu look confused as she was dragged away and she assumed that she would have to see him again later. And she looked forward to it...
