Ch. 8 Family Bonding
After Vegeta recovered from seeing his father. And Yamcha recovering from his beat down. They finally got to eat, and it was after the meal Temari told the King what happened to her.
"I don't blame you oji-san, for any of the things that happened to me. You didn't know that they would happen in the first place. Plus I would never have made any of the wonderful friends that I have today. And these amazing people that I have met, wouldn't be here on this wonderful occasion." Temari said to help remove the guilt that her uncle was feeling.
"I do have one question. Are you sure that this 'Sailor V' is really Princess Serenity?" the King asked. He felt that because Usagi resembled a woman he had seen in a dream he had long ago. She had called herself Queen Serenity, and he felt that it was no coincidence.
"I don't know...it just slipped out. She might be, but she might not be." the brown haired saiyan replied. That one question not only threw her for a loop, it flat out confused her. She began to feel that she wasn't even the Princess in question.
"Who is Princess Serenity anyway?" Roshi asked.
"I concur with Roshi-san. Who is she?" she asked.
"According to our history, she was the daughter of Queen Serenity. And it was she that lead the Silver Alliance." the King answered. Causing Temari's eyes to widen in shock.
'She said the exact same thing! And that I was the only one who could free her from that place. That could not be a coincidence. Not by a long shot. It was real. That dream wasn't a dream at all. But why? Why me? Is it... Of course! I have to get her out of there and close it. That's what I'm supposed to do. Piccolo-san was gonna say it all those months ago, but Goku-sensei stopped him because I had to figure it out myself.' she thought to herself finally putting some of the pieces of the puzzle together.
"Are you alright Kaiya? You look like you figured something out. I should know, your tou-san made that face whenever he figured something out." her uncle said with a knowing face.
"I did. So I'm Sailor Universe right?" she asked rhetorically, "Well I'm supposed to close the void between the universes. And if someone is inside I'll get him or her out. I mean you never know. I was in the void before. So maybe someone else is in there." she said to hide her knowledge of Queen Serenity. Piccolo gave a sigh of relief knowing that he won't have to hold that little bit of information anymore. He wanted to say it from the moment he found out who she was, but wasn't allowed.
"It is so amazing that you're a Sailor Senshi. I wish I was one too." Usagi said.
"You might be one for all we know. You would just need to awaken your power." King Vegeta said to help bring her hopes up.
"Like that ondago head here is going to be a Senshi." Rei said to deflate her hopes. She doesn't believe that she could ever have the guts, knowledge, or skills to fit the bill.
"You never know Rei-chan." Temari said causing Rei to look at her funny. But she choose to dismiss her friend's comment.
"Cosmos-san, what do you remember from before you found yourself in the present date?" Krillin asked.
"Sadly Krillin-san I remember nothing from that time. I knew she was supposed to do something important. But I think she figured it out. If Piccolo-san's sigh of relief was anything to go by. I'm also supposed to be her guide. And like Temari or Kaiya which ever you prefer to call her. I'm in tune with the universe. So I know that time will be the only thing that will tell." Piccolo was embarrassed by the fact that he got caught at all.
"I swear, if there is a Senshi of Time I will make sure she gets an ear full about some things and not just from me." Temari said.
"I think there might be one. I mean there are many Senshi in the universe. Not just in your solar system." the king said offhandedly though he was not entirely sure how many there were.
"There are more Senshi in our solar system?" Ami asked.
"Yes one for just about every planet almost. Some for moons and stars as well if I'm not mistaken. Heck even asteroids."
"So what is the job of the Senshi?" Bulma asked her father-in-law.
"I believe they are to protect their own world from any threats that could very much destroy life on their world. I've met one, so I should know, and I'm not counting Kaiya."
"YOU'VE MET ONE!?" Usagi blurted out without thinking. She slapped her hand over her mouth realizing that she just screamed and probably busted his eardrums and the eardrums of other people in the room knowing Temari's hearing.
The elder Vegeta chuckled at her behavior, "Don't worry Usagi-san, that's nothing compared to what I get on a daily bases from Narissa. She's got what I like to call the 'Hellscream'. But not today though." He said sounding somewhat uneasy, "I haven't seen her at all today. It makes me worry about what she's up to."
...
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S DEAD!?" Narissa screamed at the top of her lungs.
"I saw it with my own eyes. He was destroyed by a teenaged girl who calls herself Sailor Universe." the Youma before her replied. "Grom is dead."
Narissa then 'Hellscreamed' as she ripped apart the poor Youma who told her the bad news to shreds, turning to dust.
"Now, now Herodias. You know better than to kill the messenger." said a voice that Narissa knew all too well.
She knelt before the redhead in respect, "Beryl-samma, forgive me, but I felt that it would be best to gather Saiya-jin energy to help restore Queen Metalia to full power."
"You're people will be of no use to me. Even if you were successful in gathering the energy, I wouldn't need it. I could do it from Earth." Beryl said as she approached her friend. "So in the end this whole thing wouldn't have been necessary. Though it's the thought that counts. But there is one unfortunate thing to come from this. The return of Sailor Universe."
"I killed her once, I can do it again."
"And you yourself might get killed again if you do this. I need you in case things go south. If I die for any reason, you'll lead the Dark Kingdom to victory." she told her offering her her hand to stand up.
"M-me? Your successor?" Narissa asked in shock. She took her hand in total surprise. She was just given the power to take the Kingdom should she fail.
"Yes, and I'm doing this because I trust you. All I need you to do is send Youma into the Sister Universe every time you find an opening between them. That way we may find a way to close the void, and take the whole universe."
"Hai, Beryl-samma. Arigato, Beryl-samma." she said saluting the woman before her. 'If she succeeds in her plans. Then I'll kill her myself and take over.' she plotted. Beryl unknowingly made the biggest mistake in her entire life. For her thirst for power is more powerful then even Beryl's.
...
Temari shivered at a random moment to most people. But to those who knew her best. They knew something was up.
"Kaiya-chan, are you alright?" Gine asked.
"I don't know. I feel like someone just made the biggest mistake of their life." she replied with worry.
"Sounds like someone making a deal with her, and they gave themselves the short end of the stick without even knowing it." Prince Vegeta said not using his mother's name, or even calling him his mother.
"You still hate her after all these years." his father said. He wasn't surprised. It was her fault after all that Frieza found out about the boy. Which in turn lead to the king's own rebellion with the elite of the saiyan race. They almost died that day.
"Yeah...we're still working on that. But now he's not the only one who hates her guts. It's her fault my ryoushin are dead after all." ((Parents)) Temari growled. She was angry and upset that she was unable to protect her parents. She was too small.
Usagi hated to see her best friend so upset. She had to think of something. She thought of what to do as she sat there next to her when it hit her. She threw her arms around her and hoped for the best.
When she did that the younger Vegeta thought for a moment that he saw a Princess with the wings of an angel wrapping her arms around his student/cousin. 'First I'm growing soft on that girl, that I find out she's my itoko. Now I'm seeing things? Why does the blond even look familiar to me? I've never seen her until today.' he thought to himself as he saw the Princess disappear and Usagi returning, and Tamari's face returning to a softer look.
She returned the embrace of her best friend as she said, "You're the one of the reasons I didn't kill myself during my five years of Naraku." ((Hell)) Usagi looked at her friend in shock. She was one of the reasons she put up with everything that she had gone through. Why she didn't just end herself long ago.
...
After that things became lighter in the home. They laughed and celebrated and got the proper things prepared for Trunks and Goten to begin their education at the academe at the beginning of the school week. They gave her very nice things for her birthday, but none of that mattered. What really mattered to her, was that she was spending time, with all the people that cared about her. They all mattered to her. They were her precious people. And she loved them with everything she had. Even Yamcha was someone she cared about. Though not as much. But still, she felt that there were still some people missing in all this. She just couldn't think who they were.
When the time came, Temari opened a vortex for everyone who was going to Tokyo and promised to visit and catch up more. "Ka-san, don't you worry about me. I'll be fine in the Sister Universe." Temari said with a small smile on her face.
"I know you will Temari-chan." Ren said as she hugged her adopted daughter as tightly as she could. "You keep everyone safe over there now you hear?"
"Of course she will, and she'll have someone helping her too." Gohan said. Chi-Chi immediately picked up on what he meant, and was going to say 'NO!' when Goten got really excited.
"Yay! My ni-san is gonna be a super hero!"
"He already is a hero Goten-kun. Same with Vegeta-sensci." Temari said remembering the DVD Choji gave her. "Sensci I just remembered...I finally got it." she said pulling out the DVD. "Now we can watch Satan-no-baka get slammed into that rock face by Cell again, and again, and again."
"My favorite part caught on video, I gotta thank him for that." Vegeta said shocking everyone there. Today had been full of surprises.
"Gohan-kun," Usagi said, "I was wondering, if we could hang out more some time?"
"Yeah, I'd like that. We could grab a bite to eat, and just hang out like normal kids." Gohan said in reply making Usagi blush.
"Alright let's go." Rei said dragging Usagi to the other side.
"Ja-ne!" ((Goodbye)) was the last thing they could hear out of Usagi's mouth, before she disappeared with Rei dragging her. Ami bringing up the rear completely embarrassed by their antics, saying her goodbyes a swell.
"Ja-ne my friends. Until we meet again." Temari said closing the vortex when she felt that they were safe on the other side.
"Common, it's a school night. Off we go." Chi-Chi said. They then began to say their last goodbyes to the others.
"Don't be strangers now. All you have to say to the person at the desk is that it's about the Rabbit on the moon, and I'll know it's you." The elder Vegeta said winking at his niece.
"You were inspired by Usagi-chan on that one weren't you?" Temari said seeing the mischievousness in her uncle.
"I don't get it." Goten said.
"It's a legend about a rabbit god living on the moon, pounding ingredients for rice cake." she said knowing Goten would get it now. And the little boy started laughing.
"I knew a rabbit on the moon. Served him right too, for turning me into a carrot." Bulma said muttering the last part under her breath.
"I heard about that. Goku-sensci smacked him on the head with his power-pole, and threatened to whack him again if he didn't change you back. I loved that one." she said amused at the mere memory of seeing Goku retelling the story for them. It was one of her favorite adventures to hear.
Bardock laughed a little bit from hearing this little fact, and could only imagine how it went.
"How come I wasn't told about this?" Vegeta asked his mate.
"It was a long time ago for one thing, and also embarrassing. Not to mention I don't remember a thing from the incident." Bulma said.
"Yeah, but you could ask me, Oolong-san, Gohan-kun, Goten-kun, Puar-chan, or Yamcha-san." Temari said casually.
"I'll keep that in mind." he said resulting in a hit from Bulma, which Vegeta was a little amused from.
"We'll see you again won't we Kaiya-chan?" Karot asked.
"Of course you will Karot-chan." Temari smiled. She was glad that she got to meet all these people. They were family to her too.
"Kaiya-chan, tell Kakarot I'm still alive, and I said 'hi'." Bardock said.
"And if I decided to see Raditz?" she half joked.
"Tell him to clean up his act, and he'll be more then welcome to stay here. That is, if he gets brought back of course." he said without any humor in his voice.
"You got it." Temari said.
"You can't be serious." Gohan said in shock.
"Can and am."
"He's dangerous!"
"Any of us could kick his butt easy if he tried anything." Gohan didn't continue to argue with her after that.
"Common Kaiya, as much as I want to stick around a little longer. I'm not having that crazy onna hitting us with that frying pan." Vegeta whispered.
"Hai, hai itoko." she replied. "Alright then we gotta go."
"Take the garden outside. No one can see you out there when you wanna come in or out. You can even drop the boys off here, and I can take them to the academe for you." Bardock offered them.
"Arigato, Bardock-san. Ja-ne." Bulma said, and the others also said their farewells and left to the Sister Universe.
Unbeknownst to them all, a Youma got lucky and slipped through the Vortex undetected. And went to a city far way from where they were in West City.
"Satan City...interesting. I wonder what I can discover here? Perhaps I could gather more energy for my master as well." the Youma said staying in the shadows. "Soon the Sister Universes shall be reunited, and Queen Metalia-samma will rule the entire universe!"
"Oie, weirdo! I'm not letting any bad guy take over the Earth while I'm still breathing!" shouted a man who the Youma figured was the city's protector.
"Who are you human?" the Youma asked.
"Who am I? I am Satan Hercule!" he gloated thinking that the mere mention of his name would scare him off.
"You fool. You honestly think you're going to scare me?" it said coming into the light. It was male in appearance. It was a red creature barely had any hair, blood red skin, frightening yellow eyes, extremely slender in build, sharp teeth, and wearing a loin cloth.
The Youma scared him out of his wits, but he stood his ground, thinking it was just some joker trying to scare him. He put on a mask of cockiness and put up his guard. "I can smell your fear," the Youma said, "And yet you choose to fight. I commend you."
"What the-" before he could say another word, the creature covered his mouth and he was knocked out. He went into his memories and learned everything he knew, took his form, and made his ki feel like his in case if any of his enemies could sense that sort of thing. Slinging the real Mr. Satan over his shoulder, he jumped from rooftop, to rooftop, to rooftop. He then made it to Mr. Satan's house, entered the house through a window on another floor, and tied him up.
He then left from the window, and walked through the front door. He then saw Videl and smiled the same sweet smile that her father would smile if he was her father. "Hay Videl, how was your day?" he asked, knowing that the man hadn't seen his daughter since that morning.
"I'm fine tou-san. I had a lot of fun today. I just wish I could've been able to hang out with all my friends today." she said sounding a little disappointed. "But then again seeing Temari-chan beat up a bully from her grade was awesome. She used techniques that I have never seen before. I wish you could've seen it." she said with excitement in her voice.
"Oh really? That sounds interesting. I'd like to meet her if that's alright with you and her." the Youma said.
"Yeah, I'll let her know. Friday?"
"Yeah, that'll be great. I think she might like to face the champ in a friendly spar." 'I'll see about her strength. If she's strong, I'll use her energy to help in Metalia-sama's restoration.' he smiled wickedly while her back was turned.
Later that night in West City, Cosmos awakens from her sleep to sense something on the horizon. She could not discern if it was good or evil, but she knew that it had something to do with that girl. Videl she thought her name was. It had something to do with her. She just knew it. It was something about the way she looked, and carried herself. No it was more than that. 'What is it about that girl? Could she be...'
And I'm just gonna end it there. Sneaky, sneaky me. How long will it take before the Youma's discovered to be an imposter? And will they be able to hide the battle from Videl? And what is it about Videl that's giving Cosmos a funny feeling? And now of all the times. You'll have to read the next chapter to find out. Please review, and God bless you.
