Year 784 - Puzzle Pieces

POV Lilly

I was cuddled up against Trunks on the couch. He had his arm around me. We had a big bowl of popcorn and a movie on. His parents were away tonight, a big inventor's ball. Master was so not into it but Bulma got him into a fancy suit anyway. Much to the amusement of Trunks and Bulla thought her daddy was the most handsome man on earth. The way Bulla looked at her dad, I never saw my own dad like that. He was in his lab muttering about what was wrong this time. But tonight we had a night alone at home. For the past three days we had our times in the evening alone in our bedroom. Now we were sitting openly on the couch. He gave me a kiss on my crown. I looked at him and kissed him gently on the mouth. The popcorn fell to the floor, but we ignored it.

We didn't get anything from the movie, not even that his parents were coming home by the way. Suddenly we heard a loud cough behind us. It was Vegeta "oh what is it Vegeta" Bulma came and put a hand on his shoulder, and then she saw us. "Come dear, I think we are disturbing something" and she pulled Vegeta along without saying anything to us. Trunks started laughing, what had just happened? Later Trunks explained that this was the way to give us some room.

That night he walked me to the bedroom. He threw his arms around me and looked at me "You're really cute, did I say that once?" I burst out laughing; he had only said it a few times today. My head shook no anyway, I stood on my toes to give it a kiss, and he answered it. "Sleep tight handsome." "Sleep well babe."

POV Trunks

The next morning I was sitting at the breakfast table, Bulla was there too and was playing with Vixy. "You had a nice night Trunks?" mom winked and for a moment I didn't know what to say. "Was the movie fun, brother?" my sister looked at me very innocently. "It was a really fun movie, but you were too young for it." My mom started laughing. Vixy flew away and my sister dashed after her. "But uh son, how long has that from yesterday been going on". But before I could say anything she continued "you guys are really cute together. 18 and I were already talking about it during Bulla`s party. How you looked at each other". I rolled my eyes "Mom, please" and I grabbed my bag. But stopped for a moment "now four days, so don`t throw in your mom gossip group yet ok". My mom just laughed, it was already too late I guess.

On the way to school I saw Lilly in her well-known spot. I glared at her, when she saw me she made a cartwheel and stood right next to me. "Have fun today handsome" She wanted to give me a kiss on the cheek but I turned my head and a kiss on the lips followed "see you this afternoon babe". Then I saw not only my father but also Whis and that god Beerus behind by the tree. And Beerus gave me the sign with his hand that he was watching me. I better not mess this up; her best friend is the god of destruction.

I was at school and I saw my buddy walk up. "And what is it like to be a boy with a girlfriend?" he asked loud enough for everyone including Lou-Lou to hear. All I could do was smile. "So you're with her now?" a high-pitched voice behind me. "Yes and she kisses better than you" came out in a snap. A very angry girl walked away, Goten laughing all the way. I was especially fed up with her, I couldn't be nice anymore.

A few hours later I was in history class when we heard something fly over. Alarms went off in the city. I ran up and to the roof there I saw Goten already. We looked at each other, this was not good. "Was that a space ship?" he asked. And then we heard someone land behind us "Lilly!" She looked anxious "I think I know that ship, he dares to come here despite everything?" "Who?" asked Goten. "Father" she replied. "We can go, you stay here" but she shook no. She looked across the city in the direction where the ship had flown. "This is my fight."

POV Lilly

The three of us flew towards the ship, meanwhile Krillin joined us. When we arrived Piccolo was already waiting. The ship was still closed. "This is not father's ship, but it is the same class type. He must have been sent here because of me". Piccolo looked at me, and who exactly is your father?" he asked. After a deep sigh, I was able to explain that my father had the stamp of brilliant but deranged doctor. It was very quiet around the ship. "I'll go over, see if I can lure them out." Trunks wanted to stop me but Piccolo stopped him.

I landed in front of the ship "Hello, anyone in the ship?" Slowly the door opened. A huge figure walked out. I took a few steps backwards. "Hello puppet" Captain Ippan. He was one of the leaders of a group of mercenaries. "What are you doing here" I asked as innocently as possible but I couldn't help but stand defensively. He started laughing loudly "We've come to pick you up puppet, your father misses you very much". "He missed me so much why did he didn't come himself" and I raised an eyebrow. "Puppet you know how busy your father is. But out of love we will come all the way to this planet". The man had black hair straight back and a dirty smile on his face. "He was just scared, you guys were hired. He doesn't dare come here himself". I took steps backwards as he walked towards me. "And why wouldn't he dare puppet?" I looked at him with a small triumphant grin "Because of Vegeta of course". The man looked at me with a startled expression.

"That idiot has been dead for a long time, I think on a planet Namek or something" the captain began to say. "Then why am I getting personal training from the prince of the Saiyans?" The captain got tired of talking and attacked me. I was able to jump aside. He flew at me again it I blocked him with an energy shield. "Did you only learn to jump away or also fight?" At that moment I fired a big ki blast at him. He blocked it and went backwards a bit. He had a wicked smile "come on puppet" and we attacked each other at the same time. Kicks, punches, blocks and shots. It was pretty evenly matched. But then from another angle I was shot away, out of the corner of my eye I saw one of his soldiers Hohei.

I landed on the ground and pounded a fist in anger. "That was low Hohei, even for you" I shouted. "Oh our girl has got claws now, we'd better watch out" the men started laughing. "Bring it on, I'll eat you raw". The men stormed towards me but I was surrounded in no time. "Where is your big mouth now darling" laughed Hohei. "She did get a big mouth" responded Ippan. At that moment I grabbed the handle and released my whip with a pirouette. The men were knocked backwards. The men attacked and dodged my whip. Fortunately, I was able to block them with an energy wall. I dashed backwards and then I saw five other soldiers coming out of the ship. The moment they attacked me Trunks, Goten, Krillin and Piccolo were standing in front of me. "That's not very nice with all of you against one" remarked Trunks. "I want to play along too" joked Goten. Krillin was getting ready for an attack. "Guys this is not a game" commented Piccolo.

We attacked them at once. Krillin against a soldier of his own height named Shoti. Piccolo directly attacked the leader Ippan. Goten and Trunks attacked other foot soldiers and Hohei and his personal servant soldier ran at me. I blocked them and I jumped away after that. I flew into the air and fired ki shots at them. The servant soldier blocked while Hohei came up behind me to fire some. With my whip I was able to deflect it. "That's a handy little thing honey" said Hohei pointing at my whip. I flicked my whip at him and it came around his neck. I threw more power through it and the man was electrified. I didn't realize that his manservant and Shoti that escaped from Krillin attack came up beside me on the side and fired a ki shot from close range. I ended up on the ground. This freed Hohei from the whip and the three fired a ki blast at me but I was not hit. Someone was standing in front of me, and from the smoke I saw Master.

"Hohei still a simple soldier?" Vegeta had an amusing smile on his face. "What are you doing on our earth?" Goku had grabbed two soldiers Trunks and Goten were fighting by their necks and dropped them to the ground. Ippan began to speak "We have orders to get the girl. Don't get in our way Vegeta." Vegeta turned around and pointed at me "This girl?" Ippan looked at Vegeta angrily and puzzled. "Yes which other girl, monkey" he shouted. "This girl, is my apprentice. So you guys have to pass me first" Vegeta held out a hand and helped me up. From a distance I saw my god friend watching, he looked concentrated.

Ippan began to attack Vegeta and Hohei me. With our backs to each other we were able to fight them off easily; this was the first time we fought together. But he knew my techniques and attacks well enough. Then we heard a loud voice "Stop" it came from the ship entrance. I saw a hologram start up. I looked better at it but I didn't need to see the face. "Father? " at that moment when everything became clearer I heart Vegeta in the angriest voice ever "Romero!" I looked in total shock from my father's hologram and Vegeta. Then Vegeta looked at me "This man is your father?" I was staring at him in confusion. "His name is not Romero bu-but it is Willbert R Hara" I said will my voice was dying. Still looking at me "And for what does the R stand for?" I looked at my father who was looking with an evil smile directly at Vegeta.

"Don't you think she is just perfect Vegeta? She had some of her mother's wild trades but with a little bit of drugs she was just the perfect little girl". Vegeta couldn't speak; he was looking in a shock towards my father. I felt so angry "Can you tell me now what my origin is. Or are you just going to blind me again for asking". My father looked at me, if you come home my little girl then I am going to tell you everything about your mother. But your new friend is not welcome". Vegeta got his voice back "I will go with her for answers and after that you are going to die." I heard a wild laugh from the hologram "If you come here, I will kill her again. This time for good". Vegeta and I looked at each other in shock. "Vino is alive there with you?" he screamed asking but my father just waved and said "see you soon baby girl" and he was gone.

Vegeta turned super Sayian en commanded the ship or everybody dies. But Goku stopped him. "Vegeta we got a ship, let them go without their bounty". Trunks put his arms around me, I was so confused, my mother was alive. The soldiers crawled back in there ship. The ship took off. But then there was a big explosion. Everybody looked at Vegeta, Vegeta looked at Beerus who was pointing at the ship. "Hey they hurt Lil. Nobody hurts my Lilly". He was scary but the best friend I had. I flew to B and give him a hug. He hugged me back I whispered "thanks B". But then "Lilly, lets prep a ship. We are going to get your mother" Vegeta yelled.
