I am now with my mom in an open area not far from the house. We are now about to train. I told Tabitha that I am leaving for Japan and she told me to have the most fun I can have.
"Alright, so do you know how to use your ki?" my mom asks.
"Yes, but it's been a while since I've used it," I reply, "Isn't it like this?"
I focus my energy on the ki and then after that, I have it in my hands. After that, I make it disappear after a few seconds.
"Yes, that's it. Now, can you increase it?"
"No, I don't think so," I reply.
"Okay, so this is how to increase it," my mom says and then she is standing with her legs apart and her knees bent. Her hands are now balled up into fists. There is a yellow aura surround her body and the ground starts to shake with a big number of small rock particles fly up in the air. I stare in shock and amazement at how much power she has. This goes on for about a minute.
Once the ground stops shaking and the rock particles aren't in the air anymore, the yellow aura is still surrounding her and there is a noise for this as well even though I can't describe it.
"Are you able to detect when a power level is getting closer to you or if it is close to you, whether it is enormous or not?" my mom asks me.
"Yes, I can," I reply, still being really shocked.
My mom then says, laughing at my reaction, "Is it that much?"
"Yes," I reply, "You are really powerful."
"Believe me, there are a lot more powerful beings out there," my mom replies, "You will be powerful too, Kassava, I know it. You just need to keep practicing." My mom then smiles at me.
I smile back, "Thanks, Mother."
"No problem," my mother replies.
"Can I see what your power level is?" I ask.
"Of course, you don't have to ask me," my mom replies, smiling.
Lauren had made scouters for us to use so that we can detect what power levels each person has. Lauren has kept mine for when I first came to Planet Earth and my mom no longer has her old scouter.
I check my mom's power level and then it tells me that she has a power level of 15,509. My face goes into great shock again.
"Your power level is 15,509," I tell my mom.
My mom's face also goes into shock, "Really?"
"Yes," I say, nodding.
"Alright, alright, let me go into my normal state," my mom says before she lowers her power level back to her normal state. It is now 9,578.
"It's still really awesome," I say, smiling, "It's now 9,578."
"You probably have a higher power level than me," my mom replies.
"Nah, mine is probably lower," I say.
"I will check your power level now," my mom says. She turns on her scouter and then she says, "Yours is 5,585. That's great!"
"Thanks," I reply and then I ask, "Does Frieza have the highest power level?"
"I don't actually know, but I heard before that he has a power level of 530,000." 530,000? Is she serious?
"Wait, are you serious?" I ask.
"I mean, that's what I heard, but I believe that this can be true."
"How does he even achieve that high of a power level?"
"I don't know honestly. I really hate that guy."
"Me too," I reply.
"Hey, try increasing your power level now," my mom says.
"Okay, I'll try," I reply and then, I do what my mom did with the positioning. I stand with my legs apart and then, I ball my hands into fists. I try to focus on increasing my power level. I also struggle to do this and then, I keep trying, but nothing happens.
"Hey, don't worry about mastering this the first time. You will get it, I know it, and it took time for me to master it as well," my mom encourages me.
I keep trying, trying to think about increasing my power level. I grind my teeth very hard, but then I realize that I could damage my teeth, so I stop doing this. I take a deep breath and then, I try to focus again and then again, nothing.
Normally, I take a while to master a skill or a move when I learn from Gabriel, but Gabriel, of course, is always patient with me and he would keep telling me that patience is the key. He is absolutely right. It probably seemed like ten minutes have passed by already. I still didn't achieve it. Patience, that's what it's all about.
I try some more and nothing happens.
"Hey, no worries, Kassava. We can call it a day and practice some more tomorrow," my mom says, smiling.
"Yeah, the sun's going down and dinner starts not long after," I reply, smiling back.
After we ate dinner and did our chores, I sit on my bed, having more flashbacks about whenever I was a little child on Planet Vegeta.
"You are weak, you aren't a true Saiyan!" my dad screams at the seven-year-old me, throwing me against the wall. My face hits the wall and my face was hurting very badly.
I can't cry because that would show that I am weak and I couldn't defend myself either because my dad was much stronger than me, of course. Although I am brave enough to fight people my own size, I am not brave enough to fight people who are taller than me. I do try to be brave overall, however, but my dad can be really scary.
A lot of the times, my mom would be there and she would just stare at me, but on this day and at this time, she is gone on guard duty. I remember that always around the time when there were many Saiyans outside, she would be on guard duty for guarding the space pods.
My dad walks up to me and as he is about to strike his hand, my mom comes from behind and she grabs his arm very tightly. My dad looks at her and then he asks, "What are you doing, Been?!"
"Don't lay a single finger on Kassava!" My mom yells. This was the first time ever that I have seen her defend me and I smile so big, very thankful that she came to the rescue.
"She needs to learn a lesson!"
"What lesson? I think it's you that needs to learn a lesson!"
Both of my parents are now beating each other up and then, my mom tells me to run. I run away from the scene and into my room.
"I think she is weak because of you!" My dad yells at my mom.
"She's not even weak! One day, she will surpass you!"
"Yeah right! Like that's ever gonna happen!"
A/N: What do you guys think? I hope you all have a marvelous day! :)
