The next chapter is up! Enjoy :)

Aimee heard a knock at her bedroom door and got up to answer it. When she did, she was met with a strange device being held up in front of her. That's when Trunks popped his head up from behind it with a smile.

"Hey buddy, what you got there?" She asked, as she let him in.

"Well, you know how Mom has something called a dragon ball radar and we use it to find dragon balls?" He asks.

She quirks a dark brow, "You mean to tell me this is another radar?"

"Yeah, but this one doesn't find Earth's Dragon Balls. It finds even bigger ones that are scattered through space, called Super Dragon Balls." He explained.

Aimee blinked in confusion. It was hard enough for her to believe in the magic of Earth's Dragon Balls. But Super Dragon Balls in space?

"Wait, you're saying there are other kinds of Dragon Balls out there besides our own?" She inquires.

Trunks nods, "Yeah, and they are ginormous! Like the size of a whole planet ginormous! And the Dragon that comes from them is just as huge; if not bigger!"

She smiled at his excitement while he explained them to her. Apparently, he has seen them in use before. Trunks told her how they were used when his Dad, Goku, and a few of their friends had won a Tournament between them and the Sixth Universe. Then he told her how they were used again after they won the Tournament of Power. Aimee was quite shocked when he told her that their friend; Android 17 had used them to wish back eight other whole Universes.

"And you guys found them all, by using this?" She asks, as she points to the Super Dragon Ball Radar.

He shakes his head, "No, the Destroyer from the Sixth Universe had already gone ahead and found them all before the Tournament between our Universe and the Sixth. But Dad and Goku still asked if Mom could make one. Because we were hoping to find the rest of them first, before Lord Champa did."

Aimee took the offered device and gave it a look over. 'Wow, Bulma really did outdo herself again this time. Especially, if this really can find seven dragon balls scattered through an area as vast as space.' She thought.

Trunks pressed a couple buttons to show her how it works. Once the transparent screen lit up, she already saw two yellow blinking dots appear on the screen. He pointed them out to her and said they were dragon balls that were the closest.

"I kind of wanted to show you this, because Mom also made updates on it earlier. It's...also kind of why she got held up and couldn't pick you up from the airport." He said, while awkwardly scratching the back of his head.

Apparently, there was more to that story, and she could tell by the sheepish look on his face. Aimee almost wanted to know what else happened that made him feel so awkward all of a sudden. But she figures he may not want to talk about it. So, she was going to let it slide; at least for now.

"It's cool, definitely seems like a pretty nifty gadget. Though, I can't imagine why anyone here would want to go looking for those. Unless to use to restore previous catastrophic events. In which, they were already used to bring back several Universes. But what are the odds of something close to epic proportions like that ever happening again? It's most likely slim to none." She stated.

Trunks shrugs, "Hey, you never know. Especially, with serious threats still out there. In which case, it could come in handy."

They chatted for a few more minutes, before calling it a night. Trunks was too tired to bring the Super Dragon Ball Radar back down to the lab. So he just took it with him to his room and decided he would put it back in the morning.

Aimee eventually turned off the t.v. and settled under the covers.

In the halls of the Brief Residence...

"This is ridiculous! Are we really meant to look through each room until we find it!? Who knows where that brat has put it!" One soldier harshly whispered to his comrade as they crept down the darkened halls of the home.

"Yes! We have too. It would not sit well with us to return without it." The other snapped.

They already looked through a couple rooms as quietly as possible while the rest of the household slept. The whole situation was proving to be more challenging and risky as they went. Both soldiers were told that the device was located in the lab and that it would be an easy grab and go. None of them would've anticipated Vegeta's brat coming in and taking it at the very last second.

"That brat mentioned showing it to someone. We can only assume the possibility that it could be in one of the bedrooms." One stated.

"That's even worse! Because then we run the risk of waking someone and having them alert the rest of the home to our presence!" His friend snapped.

"Not if we move carefully and quietly. It's not like they will be sleeping with it, Locco." He said.

The shorter alien man just grumbled under his breath and continued to follow his comrade down the halls.

It must've been close to a half hour later of checking rooms. When they came upon the first bedroom on the left. One slowly opened the door, it hardly made a sound, as it slid across the soft carpet. They both crept in and started to look around. That's when they noticed a human size lump on the bed near the center of the room. Whoever they were, they were fast asleep.

As they took a few more steps inside, one of them stopped sudden, and almost fell. He spotted the duffel bag on the floor last minute in front of him, and narrowly missed tripping over it. Locco nodded over to the bureau and had his friend go over to start checking it.

Aimee wasn't asleep long. She woke up because she thought she heard someone lightly talking. It wasn't until she heard a harsh and sharp sounding 'Shh!' that had her eyes snapping open.

"Quiet, you idiot! You're being too loud over there!" Locco harshly whispered.

Aimee didn't recognize the voice and she knew no one would just come into her room in the middle of the night. Her heart rate started to speed up as she clutched the covers tightly.

"I don't think it's in here. We should move on." The other soldier whispered.

"Agreed, lets move on." Locco said, as he started backing up.

Which wasn't the best move, because he forgot all about the duffel bag that was still on the floor behind him. Unfortunately, his friend noticed it with wide panicky eyes, and in his panic he spoke a little too loud.

"Watch it!" He said, in a not so quiet tone.

It startled Aimee and made her jump up in the bed. She sat right up and eyed them with a very audible gasp. They were surprised at being caught. That was when Locco tripped over the duffel bag. He fell back and his upper half slammed into the closed door behind him with a pretty loud; 'Thump!'

"Who the hell are you people!? And what the fuck are you doing here!?" She said, rather loudly.

Both men started getting flustered. Between the fall and her loud reaction. Surely someone further down the hall may have heard that.

Aimee got jumped out of the bed and backed up. She opened her mouth to shout out for help. But both soldiers were on her quick as a flash. One had a hand over her mouth. She began to struggle in their grip as they held onto her.

"Dammit! Now what!? We have no choice! We have to go now!" Locco said.

"What about her!?" His friend asked.

Before Locco could respond, a light suddenly turned on in the hallway. Thus, signaling someone else was now wide awake. Aimee started struggling harder and tried making some sounds. Though it was greatly muffled by the large hand covering most of the lower part of her face.

"Shit! They're getting closer!" He said, in a panic.

Locco rapidly looked around until his gaze landed on one of the fairly large windows in the room. He pointed over to one.

"There! Let's go! We don't have a choice! Let's just take her with us! Otherwise, she will tell them about us, and then they will know who was behind this break-in! And we cannot take that risk!" Locco said, hastily.

They tried to get over to the window as quickly as they could. But Aimee was fighting them the whole way and slowing them down.

"Dammit, let's just knock the little bitch out already! She's slowing us down!" His comrade barked.

"Right!" Locco said.

Then he delivered a swift punch to the back of Aimee's head. She saw stars, before everything went dark. His comrade then threw the unconscious young woman over his shoulder, as Locco forced open the window. They quickly jumped out a split second before the door swung open.

Bulma and Trunks awoke to a loud thump that came from the hall, then heard Aimee yelling. So they quickly got up and went down the hall to see what was wrong. As they opened the door, they saw movement just outside of an open window in her room. The blue haired scientist didn't get a good look at who it was. But Trunks saw a white boot covered foot just exit his line of sight.

The soldiers quickly flew to their cruiser that was hovering just a few meters above the house. They dropped down into the pilot's seats and quickly revved up the engine.

As they pulled away, one of them looked back and noticed a bright light lingering over the house, that tried to give chase. Locco squinted his eyes and realized it was Vegeta's brat, and that he saw them. This was not good! Not good at all! Not only did they not get the Super Dragon Ball Radar, but they were spotted. They both have no doubt that this has truly botched their plans.

Locco turned back around and seemed very pale. His comrade noticed this.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

Locco swallowed, "We were spotted. They know it was us. Lord Frieza is not going to like this."

His comrade started to get uncomfortable too.

"Yeah, but...this doesn't mean we can't try again. And the bright side is, they still have no idea what it is we came for." The soldier said, trying to reassure his Captain.

"I'm not entirely sure about that." Locco said, in a grave tone.

His comrade opened his mouth to speak again. When a sharp beeping sound filled the cockpit, making the already flustered pair jump slightly in their seats.

"Come in Locco and Jac. This is Lieutenant Kikono. Are you there?" Came the voice over the intercom.

They were hesitant to answer at first. But knew they had to.

Locco sighed, "Yes, Lieutenant Kikono."

"Have you obtained the device yet?" Kikono asked.

Both men started to sweat. Great, now what!?

"Uhh, about that, Sir..." Locco started.

"What's the problem?" Kikono asked.

"We...we couldn't get it." He forced out.

"What!? What do you mean!? What happened!?" Kikono asked in a frenzied voice.

Locco suddenly became speechless. So his comrade; Jac, had to speak up for him.

"Unfortunately, they were alerted to our presence in the home and...we were forced to retreat, Sir." Jac blurted out.

"You're kidding! Please tell me this is a joke!" Kikono said, his voice becoming higher in pitch.

They flinched at his tone, but answered.

"I'm afraid not, we had no choice. But to make a hasty retreat. Try not to worry though, Sir. We can try again, just give us a little more time. They still don't know what it is we are after." Jac replied.

There was a pregnant pause over the intercom. It sounded like Kikono was talking to someone in the background.

"No, Berryblue said to return back to base. It would be too risky to return now." Kikono told them.

They didn't like this answer. But what choice did they have? They couldn't refuse a direct order. Especially, from their superiors. So that is what they will do.

"Yes, Sir...understood. ETA in twenty-minutes." Locco said.

There wasn't a returned response, just some white noise static. Which seemed more disturbing to them than a response back.

They broke through Earth's atmosphere a few minutes later, and were now in space. The unconscious young woman; all but forgotten in the back seat of the cruiser. As they headed for the Frieza Force Main Ship.

Seemed like a rather hasty and impulsive decision on their part. But as we know; Frieza's Men are not exactly the sharpest tools in the shed. If anything, many of them have proven to have the I.Q. of an insect. So this hasty grab and retreat is not exactly out of the realm of possibility. We can inly imagine how Aimee will react, when she awakens in the next chapter. Until Next Time ;)
