AS22: just a quick note to Luke, thanks for the comment, but so you know, this fic is like the 'uncut scenes' from my original story, New Destiny. Read that for a non-feral version of this story.

Chapter 20: Meeting Trunks

Katie-

About a year later Frieza arrived, more powerful than ever. My feral instincts had been in hiding, but they would not stay hidden for long.

I landed in my Saiyan armor with the rest of the group. Vegeta smirked at me, but turned toward Frieza's ship as it landed.

"Well Katie, what do you say?" Krillen asked.

"If we fly full speed right now we can get to the landing site before Frieza's ship lands, and his men's Scouters won't pick us up."

"Good idea girl." Vegeta said, taking off.

"Ooh that man!" Bulma said, stomping. I took off after him, Piccolo and Gohan right on my tail, almost literally.

I landed on the ridge and got down, right at Frieza's ship was landing. The others arrived and got down as well.

"You knew Frieza would return, so why didn't you warn us?" Vegeta asked.

"Because I know it will be all right in the end…"

"You don't sound so sure now."

I glared at Vegeta and then turned my attention back on the ship. Everyone was uneasy, and Yamcha kept suggesting we leave.

"Yamcha… shut up. If you want to leave, you know the way home. But if you keep talking then Frieza's Scouters could pick us up." I said. He shut up then.

Frieza came out, and all his men, including his father, followed. The men started to spread out.

"How do we stop all of that?" Krillen asked.

"Dammit… he isn't here!" I growled, looking around.

"Who? Kakorot?"

"No, there's someone else who shows up… but he isn't here…"

"Then what do we do now?" Tien asked. I looked down as I started to stand.

"I'll go stall Frieza." I said, clenching my fists.

"Katie are you insane? At least I should go, I am far stronger than you." Vegeta said, standing as well and looking down at me. I backed up a bit.

"That's why I should go. You will be needed if Goku or the mystery guy doesn't show up."

"Katie…" Gohan started to try to stop me.

"Hey, no worries kiddo. I fought Frieza too, remember? I can hold my own for a little while." I nodded to them, but stopped before taking off, "And guys… this will sound way corny… but I love you all, got it? Even you Mr. Saiyan Prince. Take care." I took off, shooting right in front of Frieza when I landed.

"Well, look who it is come to stop me." Frieza sneered. His father looked me up and down, grinning.

"You'd make a nice pet for my other son, Kooler, what do you think Frieza?" King Kold said. Frieza laughed.

"I think that Saiyan lover would like that."

"Your brother likes Saiyans?" I said, raising an eyebrow in confusion.

"He has had his eyes on your people, if that's what you want to know."

I growled, flexing my hands.

"I'm here to keep you busy for a bit, hope you don't mind." I said, powering up. I went to my max, but Frieza only smirked again.

"That it? I thought you'd be stronger by now. You're barely stronger than you were when you fought me on Namek!"

"I bet if I went feral I'd be a challenge."

"No… you wouldn't do that… you're too much like your brother."

"Frieza, what's feral?"

"Father, I know you're bored, but do try to keep up. A feral Saiyan is born from mixed class Saiyans. Usually only the first born. But Goku is older than her. So…" Frieza turned to me, "Either you're lying, or I'm mistaken. And I don't make mistakes."

"You did actually, thinking you could beat a Super Saiyan, didn't you? I hate to do this, but the only way to slow down your plans is to power up even further… good thing you're pissing me off lizard, it'll make my transformation easier…"

I didn't like it, but I let rage well inside me, making my wild side come alive with hunger.

I'm sorry Trunks… Goku… but I have to do this…

My power began to form a blue flame around me as I felt myself go feral. My eyes, my claws, my fangs, and my hair all grew out. I hunched over, almost on all fours, glaring at Frieza.

"Now Azil, I shall taste your blood."

"I don't think so." Frieza raised his hand up, and his men surrounded me. I growled, the hairs on my tail and the back of my neck lifted.

They all started shooting energy at me. I couldn't move to dodge. I was just hit repeatedly as Frieza laughed.

I still have my humanity… please someone hurry up!

"Hey! Leave Katie-sensei alone!" the men shooting at me all stopped. I looked up and saw the most handsome creature on earth. Trunks Briefs from 20 years in the future. They all turned to him, and he shot out, slashing with his sword. I collapsed onto my hands and knees from the pain, panting.

I looked up and saw Frieza just staring and watching. Trunks came over and knelt beside me, his hand on my shoulder.

"Is this the feral form you always warned me about?" Trunks asked as he helped me up. I was so shocked I just nodded.

"S-sensei?" I said.

"Long story… I will tell you and Goku when he gets here." He said. He wrapped his arms around me and flew off toward the ledge where the others were, "You okay?" I nodded, "I'll be back after I take out the trash." Trunks took off back toward Frieza.

"Wow, Katie, who was that?" Bulma asked, "I think he really likes you."

"What? Him? No! No, no, no! He doesn't… he couldn't…."

"Shut up Katie! Dammit, I want to hear what's going on down there!" Vegeta said, turning toward the fight. I blushed, but I was thankful Vegeta interrupted me.

The fight was fast, taking about ten minutes. Trunks smirked and flew back up to the ledge.

"Goku will be here in 2 hours. If you want to meet with him, follow me."

"Wait for me!" I said, about to stand again when sharp pain raced through my arm. I grabbed my arm to try to stop the pain.

"Katie!"

"Katie, are you okay?"

"Here, let me help." Trunks landed and once more wrapped his arms around me, carrying me toward the sight.

"Trunks?"

"Yeah?"

"That was really cool."

"Thanks." He smirked.

"Who taught you to fight with a sword?"

"Well um… you did."

"Me? Guess it's part of that long story."

"Yup. But just so you know, once you became a Super Saiyan you never had to worry about going feral again."

"Really? That's great!" I pumped my fists, but that wasn't smart because of my arm.

"I'll have to fix that once we land… now." Trunks touched down and pulled out his capsule pack. He popped out a fridge and a first aide kit. The others landed right behind us.

"Go ahead and get something to drink. It's pretty hot and dry out here. Katie, come over here and let me see your arm."

"Uh… okay." I followed Trunks over to a rock as he rolled up my sleeve.

"That looks nasty."

I looked down at my arm and saw how true it was. My arm got most of the damage from those blasters. It was burnt and cut wide open.

"I've had worse." I flinched as Trunks started wrapping my arm.

"I know you have. What do you want to drink?"

XxX

It was hours later, when Goku came home and after we met Mirai No Trunks, Goku had a talk with me.

"Katie… what was that back on Namek?" he asked. We were home, and I had come out to sit in a tree, thinking about my training. Goku had come out just to talk to me.

"I… you know about my feral side, right?" he nodded, "You're so lucky. Because of that accident when you were a kid, you have no Saiyan instincts left."

"Katie." His tone was flat, serious, and for Goku, that was kind of scary.

"The eldest Namekian opened the sleeping powers of Gohan, Krillen, and me. He… I don't know what he did, but he made it so my feral side wouldn't just… I dunno, pop out? I couldn't control myself very well before, like an animal, but Guru fixed it so when I got really angry I could… transform, I guess, into my feral side and… it doesn't seem like a very good idea, but it's better than not being able to control myself at all."

"You didn't have much control when you were trying to kill me."

"I'm sorry… but when I'm not in that feral transformation, I don't have to worry about hurting anyone. Now I just have to be careful about transforming."

"So... you got angry?"

"That's a stupid question, of course I did. Frieza was still alive. I knew he would be, but still, he… he killed Krillen, and then you yelled, and I got even madder… I tried not to transform, but I couldn't stop it… I care for Krillen too, Goku. A lot. During our training he risked his life for me. Do you now how much it hurt that I had to let him die? That I couldn't save him?"

"I see…" Goku sat down next to me and placed a hand on my shoulder, "I'm glad that's straightened out, but… now what?"

"I've been thinking… and I think once I can become a Super Saiyan like you I may not have to worry about ever becoming feral again. The anger I will feel will make me a Super Saiyan instead of feral."

"What if it makes you worse?"

"I… I guess then another Super Saiyan will have to… kill me. That's all that can be done. I'd be too dangerous to remain alive."

"Well then, I expect you will be training hard these next three years?" Goku said, grinning. That look on his face seemed to make all the pain go away.

"Of course. What kind of question is that?"

AS22: Ok, next is the android fight. you better R&R if you want to read it!
