Papika groaned before lazily standing up on her feet. She felt a little pain on her shoulders but quickly shrugged it off as she endured much worse in past pure illusions.
The crash also gave her a headache so intense that she had to try to stay completely still for it to finally wear off. With the annoyance gone, she quickly took notice of her surroundings and gasped at the alien-like scenery in her vision.
The first thing she noticed was the trees, oddly different from any trees she had encountered. For one thing, the leaves were all rounded up on the top which created a sphere made entirely of leaves. The orb made the trees look like green lollipops, much to Papika's amusement.
There weren't too many trees aside from a few here and there. From Papika's view, she could only see at least two trees in one area, sometimes a group. Surrounding those trees were small to large irregular looking cliffs. She could also see significant lakes filled with green water, which was a pretty exotic scenery to look at to Papika's amazement. But the fascinating thing is the green sky. The green air held a calm type of atmosphere that put the hyperactive girl a little at ease.
"Pure illusion?" Papika said. "Well, at least this pure illusion is a lot calmer than the others that we have visited so far," Papika whispered. Realization then hit her, "Cocona!" she looked around the surrounding area for any clues of the lost girl but to no avail. Her next method was sniffing, but for some reason, she couldn't smell Cocona's scent at all, typically in other pure illusions she could, but something about this pure illusion limited her sniffing powers. So now she was alone again with no way of finding her blue-haired girlfriend.
"We've been separated agaaain, awww." Papika pouted at the disappearance of her Cocona. She was starting to get tired of being separated from her lover every time they traveled into pure illusion, although Papika did enjoy the feeling of happiness when they finally reunited with each other. The eager feeling welled up inside the 13-year-old, the eagerness to reunite with Cocona again.
There's one thing that she found herself confused about and that was the feeling of air hitting the sensitive skin of her stomach, she glanced down at her body to see the desert outfit she wore back then. "Why am I wearing this again?" She questioned as she touched the fabric. "Well I can't do anything about it I guess. I wish I could create my types of clothing in pure illusion with my mind, just like Mimi."
Shaking her head, she sprinted out of the small crater. "I can't get distracted. I have to find Cocona or else she'll get angry at me like last time." Papika's facial expression showed fear at the possible punishment Cocona might inflict on her if she took her time standing around instead of looking for her. The thought of her girlfriend banning Papika from eating sweets for a day was terrifying. That was a punishment that Papika did not want to imagine. She hastened her pace onward with caution; the orange haired girl knew she had to be on her guard at all times. In pure illusion, there is no telling what dangers could be lurking around.
"This place is like the desert illusion, being barren and all. It's going to take me forever to find Cocona…Wait! I forgot I can fly!" She suddenly remembered that she could just fly around and search for her that way instead of limiting herself to the ground.
"eeeAhh." She lightly screamed, her orange hair now bright blue and her blue eyes now purple, the now transformed teen flew high up in the air to carefully survey the area. She squinted her eyes, but to her disappointment, she only saw barren land and lakes.
"COCONAAA! WHERE ARE YOU?" She screamed with all of her might in hope to get a response. Nothing… no response. "Maybe I have to yell even harder!" she inhaled even more air but stopped when she felt an evil presence behind her that was heading towards her way at high speeds. In a quick session, she dodged towards the left, leaving the presence to hit nothing but an afterimage. Papika stared at the figure, a fat ugly pink alien. The alien's arms were huge with spikes surrounding them similar to a club, no doubt it was used for smashing opponents with it.
Spikes also covered the ugly alien's head which would explain why it was going for a head-on tackle. The spikes on its head, the speed it was going, combined with the large body frame would have caused severe damage to Papika if she hadn't dodged it in time. She glanced at the armor he wore which didn't look necessary or strong enough to even protect him from the lowest of blasts.
"I didn't expect someone to dodge my tackle." The alien said as he turned around with an expression of malice. The alien's purple striped lips formed a smirk. Papika didn't show any fear and ignored what he had said.
"Hey, do you know where Cocona is? I need to find her quickly." Dodoria pieced together the info he had gotten from Frieza. If Papika was the first crash so then this Cocona must be the second crash where Zarbon is at now.
"That person must've been the second crash landing, which Zarbon is investigating right this minute. Knowing him, he's probably killed that person already with no interest." Papika gave the alien a glare with intense fiery.
They better not hurt Cocona. Papika knew deep down that Cocona could handle herself against anyone. If Zarbon is the same strength as the alien in front of her, then Cocona wouldn't have a problem defeating this Zarbon. But even then the thought of her Cocona getting hurt bothered her to a certain extent.
"As for me, I like pummeling a person to the ground before killing them, just like what I'm going to do to you!" Papika instinctively raised her arm to block the ki blast he fired. The explosion caused smoke to engulf the area. She flew high up from the smoke only to see the fat alien flying at her with the same tackle formation as last time. The only difference is he was going faster than before. His speed wasn't an issue for Papika, as she, in her hair form was far quicker.
"Now SUFFER!" right when his head spikes made contact with her clothing, she disappeared instantly. Before the fat alien could react, he felt an intense punch in his gut that broke his armor like paper mache. Blood spilled out of his mouth, but the orange haired girl didn't stop there as she appeared in front of him and grabbed two of the more significant spikes on his head. With a tight grip, she spun him around as fast as she could, never showing signs of slowing down.
With one final spin, she threw the fat alien who traveled at a high velocity towards the side of a massive cliff and even crashing through it towards the ground. The impact itself created a 20-yard crater.
Papika felt like she was going to vomit from the full spin. That made me a little dizzy… Maybe I shouldn't spin that fast ever again. She shook her head before flying down to the crater. Papika was getting a bit tired from this "fight" if you could call it a fight. She just needed to get the info out of the alien about Cocona's whereabouts.
"Now that you can't fight tell me where the second crash is!" Papika yelled, regaining her senses back.
"I would never!" The pink alien responded. All Papika had to do was lift her palm up towards him, fear welled up in his eyes. "OKAY OKAY! ILL TELL YOU JUST DON'T KILL ME!" the alien coughed up more blood "It's ri-"an explosion was heard miles away from the two. "That must be Zarbon!"
"Zarbon?" Papika questioned, she then recalled what the fat alien had said before. "Cocona must be there! I have to help her against Zarbon." The orange haired girl looked up to see the alien fleeing. Oh, how she hated when she got lost in her thoughts.
"FRIEZAAA! I NEED HELP!" he yelled with all of his might towards his master, he looked down at the girl that had defeated him only to see her throw a blue orb at him. His eyes widened as the orb went after him with a chase, "WAIT ILL BE GOOD" Were his last words before being evaporated to dust. The story of Dodoria aka the fat pink alien ended.
A/N: Sorry for the late chapter. School is annoying as fudge but luckily I have one more week of school before summer starts! So expect way faster updates when summer hits!
