Dawn rose, shinning it's morning light on a mountain top that overlooked the city below. If one were to look closely enough with a telescope then they can spot an green figure that was sitting on the mountain that towered over the city. No he wasn't doing his trivial meditation in harsh environments routine but was actually reading a book that was written in his native language, Namekian. As he flipped through the book that mostly showed common knowledge that he already knew, he stopped on a particular page.
"Huh, this is new?" Piccolo muttered. He read through the page quickly to see what it was about and was shocked at what he saw.
"To anyone who has stumbled upon this page then you must be a seeker of origins of our ancient people. Long ago, during the age that the age of desolation, our people were face with great turmoil as the dark deity's minion purged our villages, destroyed our lush crops, and killed many of our people, so much so that it brought us to the point of extinction. But we manage to find a solution to this problem through the means of a taboo. One that was said to be forbidden among our brethren. We had one of our finest warriors absorb that of the dragon clan and had him lay five eggs in which when they were ready to be born he would absorb them as well. Oh how we regretted going against our ideals but it was for the greater good for the people as with this great sacrifice came a great power that was strong enough to effortlessly repel the dark deities forces back to him. With the salvation of our people we gave him the title as the first elder of Planet Namek."
Piccolo was intrigue at this story. But for the most part, he was mostly interest with one specific detail that was noted.
"So there is a power that surpasses that of a Chaos Namekian. One that was strong enough to effortlessly wipe out Aereos's forces and it seems that I already meet the requirements to achieve this transformation. All I have to do is lay five eggs and absorb them." Piccolo muttered. He flew off from the top of the mountain and made his way to the lookout so he could enter the time chamber.
"Looks like I will be in there for a while, I can only lay one egg per year so I'd best speed up this process." Piccolo thought as he flew up into the sky and towards the lookout.
Within The Yuki Mansion
Ryusika woke up in a peppy like mood as if all the stress had been relinquished from her body. She got out of bed and took care of her necessities one by one before making her way out the door to go for a walk outside. She decided that she needed some fresh air and some time to think about things. The fact that she was going to be a mother at the age of nineteen had finally crossed her mind. Even with the support she gained from her friends and Vincent, it still didn't change the fact that she was rather young for the role of mother, but then again so was Vincent in the matter of being a father. At this point she was beginning to think if she was truly ready for a thing like this. While in jumbling in her thoughts, she felt herself trip on a unsuspecting crack on the sidewalk. She feel forward, feeling someone catch her before she could fall.
"S-Sorry I-I wasn't paying attention." Ryusika stuttered.
"Ryusika? I thought you would of gotten more rest than this?" the voice who is revealed to be none other than Vincent asked.
"Vincent? I was just going out for a walk to get some fresh air." Ryusika said.
"Sigh* You know, being out here is probably not the best since you almost fell flat on your face." Vincent commented.
"Well who asked you?" Ryusika snapped until she felt herself get pulled by Vincent as he walked towards another direction.
"Hey, not so rough will you?" Ryusika complained.
"Just stop talking and come with me, if you need fresh air then I will accompany you." Vincent said. Her eyes widened at the new feeling she was having for him. It was a warm and gentle feeling that would actually cause her to blush. The two eventually made it to a park bench as they sat in silence. Ryusika couldn't help but notice a pair of kids playing around the fountain as their parents followed them to make sure they were okay. She couldn't help but stare at the sight of a family doing simple things. That was when she asked the serious question.
"Vincent, do you really think we can do this? You know the whole parent thing." Ryusika whispered.
"What makes you asked that?" Vincent raised a brow.
"Don't tell me you are not having doubts on being a parent!" Ryusika amazed
"I never said I didn't have doubts. Trust me I am just as unprepared as you are." Vincent replied. With her questioned answered she went back to being silent for a moment.
"So, now that we are here, when do you think we should tell your parents?" Vincent asked.
"Uhhh, I was going to wait for the right moment to tell them but I still don't have a clue on how to approach it." Ryusika answered.
"Then we will just confront them together and get this over with. I mean if what you said yesterday was true then they are in for a rude awakening since I have Kuzuku on speed dial." Vincent smug.
"You are such an ass." Ryusika jokes, causing the two to laugh a bit. When they stopped laughing they couldn't help but look at each in the eyes for a moment, unconsciously inching their face towards one of each other. That was until someone with a gun aimed at them caught the attention of Vincent's peripheral vision. With great reflexes, he grabbed Ryusika and pulled her out the way of the gun shot before she was hit. Ryusika looked towards the ground where the bullet had landed. If it wasn't for Vincent she'd be laying on the ground in a pool of her own blood. Without warning, Vincent pulled her as he took of running while evading shot and shot. They could hear the screams around them as they ran for safety.
"I didn't know your family had personal enemies!" Vincent commented.
"We don't, I've never seen that person around the house in my whole lifetime!" She denied.
"Well whoever he is, all I know is that he wants you dead!" Vincent noted. The two eventually ran behind an alleyway, huffing away as they try to regain their breath. Vincent looked behind the wall, only to see the crowd of people simply shopping or moving about their day.
"Okay, I think that we've lost him for now but he may have allies in reserve. We should call Kuzuku so he can take care of this mess." Vincent said, reaching for his phone that was in his pocket until his eyes widened in worry.
"Fuck, my phone must of fell while we were running away." Vincent cursed. Ryusika started to scramble through her purse and pull out her phone, only to see that it had a bullet hole through it.
"My phone! They must of shot through my purse and hit my phone instead!" Ryusika gasped.
"Well isn't that just convenient." Vincent gritted. He had little time to react and grabbed Ryusika, pulling her close and turned around to slightly evade the bullet that grazed his shoulder. Ryusika looked up to see another assailant with a rifle in his hand. Ignoring the pain in his shoulder, Vincent took off into a sprint out into the streets, carrying the girl in his hands. He could here various cars fast approaching him, screeching as they turned from corner to corner. That was when Vincent had an idea and turned into a nearby building, avoiding the pursuers that were in their vehicles. He kept on running as fast as he could up the stairs and made his way onto the roof, letting the blond in his hands down as he took a break to catch his breath.
"I think...Huff* we lost them. God I don't think any football workout has made me this tired." Vincent joked. Ryusika sat down against a wall alongside Vincent. The two sat in silence for a moment, thinking about what was about to happen before they were chased across town.
"Uhhh so about what happened earlier." Ryusika whispered.
"Look it was nothing, I am pretty strong myself you know. Not like Kuzuku though but still strong to say the least." Vincent answered.
"No it's not that, I mean what we were about to do..." She embarrassed. The toned, spiky, light orange haired football player caught on and darted his eyes to the ground in deep thought. There was a awkward silence between the two now as they didn't know what to say.
"Look...I-" Vincent started until he dodged a knife aimed at his face by doing a somersault sideways while Ryusika looked at the knife that was embedded into the wall. They didn't see anyone around at first until the two were slowly catching on to what was happening. Various men were coming out from their hiding spots and surrounding them, preventing them from escaping.
"I know I believe in karma but come on!" Vincent complained.
"Who put you up to this, we've done nothing wrong?!" Ryusika cried. To answer her question of desperation, the gang members cleared a path to reveal who their leader was and oh how shocking the reveal could be. Ryusika gasped at who it was while Vincent merely stood there on his knees, gritting at the person before him.
"Well why am I not surprised, Glade buddy, you're out of jail now. How was the rehabilitation on your sanity going? From what I can tell you aren't doing so good since you are out to kill us and all." Vincent mocked.
"I am just find, I can tell you that much. All I am doing is getting my revenge on those who dared to cross me, starting with that slut over there that dumped me once I thrown in jail." Glade glared.
"I can't blame her dumping a psychotic bastard with a superiority complex that makes them turn into a suicide bomber." Vincent remarked.
"Vincent please..." Ryusika whispered.
"Sorry Ryusika but I can't sit here and let him talk to the person that is carrying my child..." Vincent uttered. She could only cry at those words while Glade was handed a gun and pointed at his former high school teammate.
"You know, you had so much potential in the game of football and now all that talent is about to go to waste." Glade smirked.
"Gee, so you are capable of saying nice things." Vincent teased.
"Hmph what can I say? I mean you know how the saying works. Jail does change people for the better." Glade said. His finger was slowly clicking on the trigger as he was getting ready to fire. Ryusika couldn't help but look away at what was about to happen when she heard...
*BANG!*
The sound of gunfire, stopped the people in the streets momentarily until they resumed back to here daily activities, assuming it was their ears playing tricks on them. Ryusika had her face covered, not even bothering to look at what was left of her baby daddy. But something drew her curiosity as there was nothing but silence. She decided that she take a peek through her fingers to see what was going on until a sudden wave of relief washed all over her body. Glade's expression was nothing but pure shock while his goons were more than just shock but completely terrified. Vincent however opened his eyes to see who it was and simply smirked.
"You just have the greatest timing in the world, don't you Kuzuku." Vincent commented.
"Huh, all I did was Instant Transmission to you since you weren't picking up your phone and the first thing I see is a bullet hurling right at you." Kuzuku said.
"Yeah whatever but you did save my life so I can leave it at that. Oh by the way, our good friend Glade over there is back and as you can see he's gone completely bonkers." Vincent scuffed. Kuzuku looked over to Glade and smiled at him.
"You're right, how's it been Glade? I was going to apologize for all the trash talking and insults we had back in high school but seeing that you've nearly killed one of my friends then I guess I can proceed to beating you senseless?" Kuzuku said dangerously.
"Beat me senseless? You're delusional if you think you can stop us. We outnumber you by like fifty to one and we are all equipped with AR-15's." Glade laughed nervously, ignoring the fact that Kuzuku just tanked a bullet to the chest with no effort required.
"Am I really delusional? I think you need to get yourself checked buddy." Kuzuku said. He took one step forward, making the whole gang shiver at his approach. Kuzuku lifted one of his fingers and fired a energy blast at the water tank and disintegrated it completely. They all were shitting themselves at the destructive force that was displayed.
"I called the cops and they should be on their way to this location. I best advise you walk down the steps and surrender peacefully." Kuzuku suggested
"Don't think that will-" Glade was cut off when Kuzuku gut punched him lightly, causing him to pass out from the pain. His body hit the floor hard, alarming the minions that he wasn't playing around.
"Now show some level of intelligence and don't be this guy who I just knocked out." Kuzuku warned. With that the gang members picked up their boss and hurried down the steps where the cops were waiting for them. Kuzuku sighed heavily that this was the second time he put Glade in jail.
"You guys okay?" Kuzuku asked, helping his injured friend off the ground. Vincent winced in pain as he grabbed his shoulder that had been grazed.
"Here, eat this." Kuzuku said, handing him a senzu bean. The football star ate the bean and was instantly healed due to its effects. Ryusika was already walking towards the two, trying to come up with words that are suited for the situation.
"Vincent...I'm sorry, if you didn't had to protect me..." Ryusika stuttered until she was flicked on the forehead.
"Ow..." She muttered while rubbing the spot she was flicked in.
"Listen, stop apologizing and let's just go and get this over with. Besides we can't even hide it so what's the point." Vincent said. She simply nodded and complied to his wishes while the Saiyan was dumbfounded by the sudden change.
"Alright then I will teleport us to Ace and the others, they are already at your place to support you." Kuzuku informed. They grabbed onto the Saiyan and were transported to Ryusika's place
-Instant Transmission SFX-
The gang were all now together when Kuzuku made his sudden appearance next to them with Ryusika and Vincent as company.
"About time you got back, what happened?" Liz asked.
"Well to put it simply, Glade broke out of jail and tried to kill Vincent and Ryusika in hopes to get revenge or whatever." Kuzuku answered.
"Gosh really?! Then we are just lucky that we tried to call you two!" Kize amazed. In the mitts that he said that Vincent walked over to Kize with a timid expression.
"Kize I guess that all I can say is that...I'm sorry" Vincent apologized. The track star gave him a perplexed expression until he smiled and patted his back, nearly knocking the wind out of him from his unexpected gesture.
"Does it really matter now?! As long as you are going to own up to it all then it's all good isn't it?" Kize thrilled.
"Ye-Yeah..." Vincent agreed.
"Come on, we should get this thing done so it doesn't become a problem later." Ace intruded. The group of friends made their way to the front door and had Ryusika lead them inside. They tiptoed through the endless hallways and into the living room where her parents seemed to resided in.
"Umm mom, dad, can we talk for a minute?" Ryusika asked.
"Oh Ryusika dear, we didn't notice you and look you've brought some friends along." Her mother Venesia noted.
"Sure, come have a seat, your friends can come and join us to if they like." Ryuken assured. Ryusika took seat on the couch while Vincent sat next to her for support.
"I have something to tell you both and I know you will be extremely angry." Ryusika whispered.
"Don't worry deary, we won't be mad at you if you did something." Venesia said.
"Mom, you don't understand that I've committed a terrible mistake." Ryusika countered. The parents now caught whim that the topic must be difficult to talk about.
"Honey, if this topic is too difficult to talk about we can simply drop it and save it for later." Ryuken soothed.
"No, you must hear me out now since there is no avoiding it anyways." Ryusika stated.
"Then what is it that has been eating away at you?" He asked.
"To shamefully put it, I'm...pregnant." Ryusika admitted. Sounds of glass shattering could be heard in the married couple's mind at the sudden words that came out of her mouth. There was a dark and ominous silence in the room and Kuzuku was prepared for any dangerous weaponry that may spring out.
"Ryusika, I am not mad at you but however, who is the one that got you pregnant?" Ryuken asked with danger in his voice. It was to be expected based on how Ryusika had described him.
"I am the father sir." Vincent confronted. Ryuken gave him a dark glare that showed killing intent.
"Tell me...are you going to take responsibility for your actions? Will you support my daughter with the necessary money to live?" Ryuken quires. Vincent's gaze didn't waver for a moment.
"I will tell you this first , I am going to take responsibility for my actions with everything that I got. As for financial aid, I would have to work and send money during my time in college. I should have no problem in supporting her afterwards after one year cause by then I will be a pro football player." Vincent answered.
"Wait you're a football player? What's your name?" He asked with a whole different demeanor than before. It was as if he went from deadly serious to completely fanboy mode in like two seconds.
"Uhhh my name is Vincent sir..." Vincent sweated.
"You're THE Vincent Alvarez! My god I watched all your games alongside with that Glade fellow who I allowed to date my daughter only because he was the captain. You sir are one mighty talented running back!" Ryuken complimented.
"Oh well thank you, so are we cool or am I still a dead man?" Vincent asked but in the back of his mind he was pretty much thinking "What the actual fuck?!" .
"Are we cool? You impregnated my daughter but you can pretty much support her with minimal effort since I have no doubt you will go pro! We are more than cool son!" Ryuken claimed. Ace, Kuzuku, Kize, and Liz were all shocked at how fast he was accepted into the family just like that but were also relieved that their worries were all for nothing.
A/N: And that marks the end of that mini-arc! The ending was rather anticlimactic and wacky, displaying that Ryusika's dad is a football fanatic. The overall theme was more of a character development for some of my minor characters so that was a big plus right? Expect a time skip for next arc ;).
