Ok, I own no part of Dragonball Z, ok, but I do swear to you, Creeda is MY character, as is her father and the idea of the Medium race! bows head Thank you! Now enjoy!
My eyes glow a very pail green in the darkness of the ship around me. I blink a few times unable to return to sleeping after waking to a sudle bump as the ship hit a few small space rocks. I sigh a little and brush my loose fringe from my hair leaning back in my chair. "Ok, activate lights!" I say. There is a slow flashing of lights like bright lightning, then my ship is lit. I grumble a little as I start pressing a code into my ships main computer before spinning my chair around to face behind me, there I also press a few more buttons, this time more rapidly. I switch a red switch and look to the roof's speaker, waiting, waiting. "Hello Capitan, what is your desire?" The computer asks me. I close my eyes lightly in thought then let out a sharp grunt. "Turn on auto pilot and put me into artificial sleep up to we reach out destination!" I demand voice cold and firm. I am not in the best of moods, besides, you need not be polite to a computer. There comes three beeping sounds and I grunt a little. "Artificial sleep starts now!" The machine informs voice strait like it's emotionless... which I really suppose it is. I hear a sound coming from the walls similar to the sound that comes while deflating a ball. This is the sound of the sleeping gas leaking into the ship I am in. I feel light headed as I in hail the first breathes of the gas. My eyes roll lightly and flicker open and closed, open and closed. "Off... lightssssss!" I say before my head falls to one side as I fall into a fake slumber. The lights flick off and all is dark just as before.
A dark dark place, buildings at the ground with ruble and broken glass all over the ground. Pieces of tattered clothes caught in gutters of the sidewalks and puddles form in deep ditches and cracks on the road looking like a muddy ooze rather then a dirty water. 'Huh? What is the significance of such a dream?' I ponder to myself. To many a dream is just a dream, a figure or taunting image that reminds you of something you have saw, or teases you about something you want and can never have, but for me dreams are very different indeed and though I am half saiyan which means nothing in relation to my odd translating of dreams I am also half a different race. So two kinds of blood goes through my veins. I am also half Medium. A long forgotten race with many abilities, one of which is to be able to see the future through dreams or visions which is what's happening now.
Not a tree in site... though this is the city, I should not be surprised, and yet, not a tree for shade over benches, not a plant outside a store. Everything and anything has been destroyed! My nose screws up in horror and disgust. Even though I sleep my emotions slip through to my facial expression. The view of the city seems to turn around as it goes to a building spinning around it's corner I see three figures. Blurred at first by the lack of light in the image then clearing up. I can see a girl, a blonde haired girl! Her hair trimmed to just reach her shoulders. She wears a tight black stockings under a short denham skirt. It has tattered edges around the hem which give her a bad attitude effect. Her top half is covered with a long sleeved, white striped shirt covered with a small vest. Nest to her is a guy, similar in form to her... he must be her brother or something. He wears baggy jeans with a tear in the right knee. His top is a Grey long sleeve shirt under a black vest with two R's on it. He's hunched over a man who lay on the ground blonde spiked hair everywhere. Blood goes down his face and stains allot of his clothes and body. He lays there next to lifeless. "He's dead..." The girl grunts with a tinge of satisfaction in her voice. Then comes stiring from their feet which leads them to look down in shock at the guy below them "Why? I don't get it? Tell me! Why are you two doing this?" The guy on the ground speaks, voice crocked by the chocking of his own blood. His eyes hardly open so you can tell he's on his dieing breathes. "Hmm, Dr Gero created us for the sole purpose of world domination, but that doesn't bother us, not at all!" The guy standing says while placing his foot under the chin of the blonde haired boy on the ground only to look in his barely open eyes. "Whenever we see humans it angers us, we hate you humans!" The women says. 'That could only mean she isn't human though, right?' My hands are starting to shake as they grasp the arms of the chairs ferociously! 'That must mean the guy with her isn't either. And if they hate humans that would make them evil and they guy on the ground good, correct?' My eyes tighten into their closed state as the image continues to play and the vision worsens. "What? You monsters!" The guy on the ground yells. The guy... monster forms a giant ball in is hand that glows so bright. It's a instant death attack to anything it touches. The ball is released from the monsters hand and there comes a deafening scream that goes with the bright light.
My eyes shoot open. My body is sweaty and I'm panting hard face red and eyes wide. 'What the hell did that mean? That guy! Who ever he is, am I meant to... save him?' The thought of such a thing stirred in my head and made me cross my arms in thought and go back over the dream and try to get something from it. 'Nothing, I guess if I run into that I just save the guy. Those other two seem evil, hating humans is bad isn't it. Besides the guy on the ground seemed so persistent of what he was saying, that could never be wrong could it?' I peer out the window slowly and it's only now I noticed that I've landed. Seemed strange, I never slept through landings! Man, that dream must mean something or else I would not have been in such a deep slumber over it. I grunted and pressed a large red button and there is a loud groaning sound as the door opens and I step out looking at the world around me. "So this is earth huh?" I mutter as I start out of the large craiter my ship had made on impact with earth. I reach the top and look around and a sence of da ja vu hits me. My eye twitches as the scene comes back to me. The fallen buildings the smashed glass, the shredded clothes in the gutter. This is certainly the place of my dream... or, more or less, my vision. My eyes scowered the area for the building the three people had been behind in my image. My eyes glance and I notice the emptiness of a place without trees.
"THERE!" I yell out loud never forgetting the sign I had seen in my dreams. I strait away start running for it, feet slaming the ground thumping hard and making a suddle banging sound... or maybe that's my heart! I draw nearer and nearer to the building till I finally reach a point that I can see around it. "We hate you humans!" The women says. 'Man, looks like I've got here just in the nick of time!' I think to myself taking a huge breathe and getting ready to step in. My eyes sharpen and I tighten my muscles up. "What? You monsters!" The guy on the ground yells.
Ok, it's now or never. The gut starts to form a thing known as a power attack or power blast and goes to release it when, with a suddle swing my leg collides hard with his head sending the blast flying into the sky and him smashing into a fallen building. I sharpen my eyes in aggression and turn to the girl a cold stare almost freezing her with fear. I whip my tail in an aggressive way and show my teeth. "Leave, now, and take your brother with you!" I say through my teeth. The girl looks shocked, but it soon turns to a pissed off look. She growls in the back of her throat and runs in the opposite direction to me. "17, come on! Let's go!" The girl says waving to the guy I kicked before jumping in the air flying. I grunt and show my teeth a little more in disapproval. "I'm coming!" The guy known as 17 says. I watch them till they're gone then turn to look at the guy on the ground. I friendly smile comes to my lips perking one side slightly upwards. The guy stares at me in a total state of confusion not knowing what to say. This amuses me so I smile a little more showing my teeth in a grin! I offer my hand to the stranger, look of hatred and revenge gone from my eyes and replaced with friendliness and a happy glow. The stranger looks to my hand a second then takes it graciously. I pull him to his shaky legs with a suddle heave and dust myself a little off.
"You... who are you?" The stranger asks making me look up from my clothes. His hair has changed, it's purple now... no! A lavender color. The spikes are gone and it's short, but then again, long to the extent it just hangs over his ears while everything else under that is cut short. I stare into his blue eyes and tilt his head slightly in a state of fascination. How could hair just change like that? "Well? Come on, out with it! Who are you? You can't be human, no human could frighten the androids off like that." The stranger informs me. So, they were Artificial humans. Interesting. My eyes roll down to the ground as I do a thoughtful expression. "I know you talk, I heard you before!" The guy says trying to be patient with me. I did after all, just save him. He glances to me trying to look in my eyes, but since he can't he starts looking me over. He starts with my face with my bright green eyes and rose colored lips. My thin eyebrows tilt up a little to show a friendly yet thoughtful expression that covers next to my whole face. My hair hangs out with a large chunky fringe that goes beyond the face out about three inches away from it. It's long and mostly black with bright purple tinges that light it up when the sun hits it just right. He then starts down my body looking at the tight white singlet top I wear showing off my large chest. It wraps around me showing off my curved, yet muscular body.
He then goes down some more now noticing my tail, his eyes widen, but he doesn't speak just looks at my three quarter green army pants that are hardly even able to show any skin before some thick black army boots cover them up. They have thick spikes on them that would normally drive into the dirt to stop slipping down muddy edges. Around my waist, not weaved through the bits of my pants they are meant to is a belt. A dark brown belt with two knives in them my weapons of choice. "My name is Creeda. And you are?" I speak softly my eyes warm and melting.
The stranger smiled in satisfaction of getting my name even if it did take a while. The stranger bows his head slightly as a sign of respect. "I am Trunks Brief... tell me, why did you save me?" Trunks asked with a sense of curiosity in the tone of his voice. I smile a little and stare to the sky... the starry sky, "Hmm, I don't know. I have visions at time and I had one that replayed that scene, but you died, I guess, since my visions always mean something I came to your aid... I just assume that's what I was meant to do... does that satisfy you?" I ask trying to sound as nice as I can to this stranger. After all I am new to this planet and don't wanna go stepping on any toes. "Hmm, a little... what are you doing here anyway? You clearly aren't from earth! What are you? Saiyan?" Trunks questions perking an eyebrow. My eyes go incredibly wide as he said this. 'How does he know about saiyans?' "Umm, I came from an army camp in the far reaches of the galixy. I was sent here on a unknown mission... and yes, I am part saiyan, but I am also half Medium!" I tell him slapping myself in the face suddley. How can I just allow myself to just open to a stranger like that? That's not what they tort me in training. He's just a stranger... but a cute one he is at that!
"Medium? That I haven't herd of!" He informs me curiosity obviously still there as his eyes sharpen a little to almost dig into my soul. I flinched at that look, my trainers often gave me that. "A forgotten race. We have many abilities, amongst them is to see the future." I say suddley pulling a knife from my belt just to look at it. Trunks walked over to me. His foot steps light and his eyebrows high in confusion. "What is your mission? How long will you be on earth?" He questioned. I look a little frustrated and eye him in an annoyed way, he asks way to many questions. "I don't know... could be a day, could be a year. Only time will tell. They will send someone down to talk to me." I announce putting my knife back in my belt and gritting my teeth a little. I can still feel Trunks' hard stare digging through me. I winch a little and turn to him again showing my two sharp, slightly over sized Canine teeth in aggression. "What? What are you staring at?" I snarl spite in my voice. Was it not enough to just save him? Can he not leave me alone now with his stares that shoot from his icy cold eyes. Though, I don't think he's trying to seem threatening, it's just the way his face has gone in the state of confusion.
"Hmm, nothing really I guess. But! I do wish to know, where will you stay on earth, a person like you stands out in a crowd." He says raising his shoulders into a slight hunch only to drop them as a shrug. I look to him and my eyes slightly widen and the aggression once again fades. I sigh at his point and walk away a little kicking a piece of debree and then shrugging carelessly. "Don't know... I'll find a place. There any forests around here?" I ask stuttering a little. English is not one of my stronger languages, I'm much better at typical saiyan talk. "Forests? Um, no, they all got destroyed." Trunks says after looking in though for a good few seconds. I grunt at humans destructive forces, cutting down trees, what a disgrace! "Hmf, humans are so stupid!" I say out loud crossing my arms in consideration and lightly closing my eyes. But I can still feel Trunks' stare chafing into me. "Well... I guess I best be off. I left my ship and people are probably getting sused out. Man..." I pause in consideration still wondering where I should go.
I click my toung a little then rub it slowly over the roof of my mouth. "...Where should I stay... no forests, pff! What kind of a planet is this?" I ask growling in frustration. I then start walking away head bowed and thumbs tucked into my pants as I walk. "Well, were not as hostile as you may think. You can stay with me if you wish, it's the least I can do, I ow you my life." He says. I try not to seem ungrateful as I turn around shaking my head a few times, his staring I could not take. "Na, I think not. Thanks for your hospitality, but it's really unnecessary, I just did what my dream was telling me to. Now, good bye... though I have a feeling we'll be meeting again." I grin a little and start walking off, hands now chafed into my pockets feeling around for anything to grasp, but they're empty. I sigh lightly and stare to the sky eyes tinted with thoughts. "Please, it's the least I can do... just till we find you somewhere else!" Trunks says from behind me. I rub my hand slowly down my sweaty face in stress and glance to him. Why is he so possessed on making me stay? I widen my eyes a little at him and twitch the side of my lip into a crooked smile. "You're a great guy Trunks, you know that? Don't ever let anyone tell you different. I suppose you're not too bad... for a human." I say wisping out the last three words in a rather low stutter. Trunks smiles lightly and shrugs. "Hum, thanks, but I ain't human... but thanks for the kind words." He says smiling slyly to himself. He knows these words will hook me in, make me want to hear more. I am after all a saiyan, and as such have a marveling fascination for this kind of thing. I turn around and look to him. He has a smirk on his face and looks to the ground at his shoes, but despite this smug look, I know he's not lying. "Oh, what are you then?" I ask curiosity making my whole body turn to him to give him my full attention. He looks up to me eyes glinting with excitement of what he's about to say.
"I am half human, of that you are right, but I am also half saiyan. It came from my fathers side." He tells me. I smile lightly and take a hand out of my pocket only to brush away some hair before putting it back in again. "Hmm, you're a hybrid." I say. Trunks grits his teeth a little but through it forces out a smile and nods a few times. He's trying to get along with me, not make enemies. "Yes, but you are too, are you not?" Trunks says. I snort in disapproval and feel my hands wanting to reach for my knife, but I resist, I just smile and live with it. "Ahh, yes... I suppose I am." I mutter. Though I clearly look more saiyan than him which brings a smile to my face and makes me chuckle under my breathe. "Then I think you should come with me. I wish to know how you managed to live!" Trunks says. I think about it then point over my shoulder with my thumb giving Trunks full eye contact still. "But, my ship!" I say. Trunks nods a few times in an understanding way. "I follow. Come on, we'll go get it!" He says levitating into the air. Well, he clearly isn't human if he can fly. Though there have been rare cases that lower species could learn such a thing. "Flying? Is that such a sweet idea? Humans, if they see us, will that not be a little..." My voice cuts out. Dam English! I can't think of the word I'm looking for. "Freaked out?" Trunks says. I have never herd of such a thing and add it to my English vocabulary in my head then nodding a few times. "Um, yes, freaked out!" I say repeating it just to let it sink in. Trunks then shrugs shallowly and waves me to follow. "The chances of any humans even being around is slim." Trunks says. And with these words comes a sense of satisfaction, I know that he's right. Those androids would have surely killed off most of them and the rest would be hiding. I levitate into the air and give Trunks a sudden wave to follow me. "Come on! I'll show the way!" I yell powering up slightly despite the short distance it is from here. Trunks follows not far behind as I take off in a stream of light.
"Wow, you sure know how to crash a ship." Trunks teases snickering hands on his hips as we still levitate about five meters above my crashed ship. I scowl at him unnecessarily just so he knows I'm feeling ticked off, not that it would change his mind about driving me nuts. "You know, I've only just met you and don't usually make quick judgment, but I've decided that you're really annoying!" I growl grunting and showing my sharp teeth once more before landing on the ground by my ship. It's only very small and from here looks like a large metal sphere. "Yeah, that was a rather rash decision. That's a little nasty, you see me passing no fast judgments? No! I'm a better person then that!" Trunks assures me.
I grunt and roll my eyes and try to ignore him, but have very little effect cause he's soon next to me, staring at me for a response. "And I'm sure your mum's very proud, now, are you going to be a gentlemen and help me?" I question. Trunks smirked loosely and landed by me looking at the ship a few seconds before turning to me. "What exactly am I meant to do?" He asks an eyebrow perked higher then the other to express his full on confusion. "What do you think? We can start by moving it out of where these homosapians see it and die of heart attacks!" I demand. Trunks snorts and leans over wrenching it from the ground in a sudden heave. "Why can't you do this if you're a saiyan?" He asks. I smirk and cross my arms lowering my head but still glancing up at him. "Haven't you ever herd of being polite to ladies?" I ask smile only growing. Trunks rolls his eyes and snorts in disapproval, but doesn't rebut any further. "Oh, lady my butt!" He mutters very, very low under his breathe as he hovers from the pit, me not far under him. "Did I forget to mention I have very acute hearing?" I ask smirk still there as I do a light glare. Trunks shakes his head slowly and lets out a deep smile. This was deficiently going to be a difficult time he spent with this me... but never the less, he owes me his life and he can't go back on his words. He will have to let me stay at least a little now...
OOOOOHH! Cliff hanger... well, not really... Trunks really doesn't look to like her company, but will things change? PLEASE! Tell me what you think!
