My surroundings immediately changed and a small shriek of surprise sounded behind me, startling me and making me jump up a little. I spun around to see Bulma practically standing on her chair in shock, letting my hand drop to my side. I lifted an eyebrow and tilted my head to the side. "Um, are you okay?" I asked her.

She looked at me in disbelief. "Kiela? Is that really you?" She asked.

I opened my mouth to say something but the sound of running outside the room stopped me. I looked over my shoulder at the door as it flew open and several familiar faces ran into the room, taking fighting stances. "What's wrong Bulma?" One very familiar voice said. I looked at the person who had talked. Goku stood in front of the door, Vegeta and an adult Gohan stood next to him.

"Who is that?" Vegeta demanded.

Bulma glared at Vegeta and pointed at me as she stood on the floor again. "This is a friend of Trunks'" She said.

They all eased up a little bit, except for Vegeta of course. Gohan walked forward looking at me curiously. "You're Kiela?" He asked. I looked up at him, his hair was pitch black, his eyes were the same, and spiky. He also wore the same clothes as Goku. Trunks had told me that the last time he saw Gohan was when Gohan had a scar across his face and his right arm was missing, but he looked just fine, guess Porunga fixed those injuries.

I smiled and rubbed my upper arm. "Yeah, you must be Gohan."

He smiled back at me and nodded. "Sure am. How's Trunks doing?"

I shrugged. "Pretty good."

Goku placed a hand on Gohan's shoulder. "You know her?" Goku whispered.

Gohan looked at Goku and nodded. "Sort of, I've never met her until now but I did talk to her a little bit when King Kai made contact with them a few months back."

Goku nodded. "Oh, okay."

"So Kiela." Bulma said, I turned around to look at her. "Where's the ship? Trunks told me that you were going to bring it."

"Oh yeah, sorry, I forgot about that." I dug my hand into my pocket and pulled out the small capsule before tossing it to Bulma. "Here you go."

She caught it in her hands and looked at it for a little bit before looking back up at me. "Thanks Kiela, we'll have the ship ready to go in no time."

I gave her a thumbs up and placed two fingers on my forehead. "Alright, see you guys soon." I said, waving my hand at them. I glanced at Gohan. "Oh and Gohan, Trunks says hi." I told Gohan before the room suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a small forest on Namek. Trunks stood in front of me but his back was facing me. "Ready to go?" I asked, practically scaring him to death, it looked like he jumped at least 50 feet into the air.

I laughed in amusement and he glared at me. "Don't scare me like that!" He growled at me.

I smiled and put a hand on my lips to hold back a laugh. "Sorry Mr. sensitive." I place a hand on my hip. "So are you ready to go or not?"

He sighed and shook his head, trying to hide a smile. "Yeah, I'm ready."

I nodded. "'Kay. Hold onto my shoulder." "You're leaving already?" A somewhat deep, gentle voice came from behind a large rock.

We both looked at the rock and I tilted my head to the side. "Dende?" Trunks asked.

Dende stepped out from behind the rock. "Are you leaving already?" He asked again.

Trunks looked at me and I sighed. "Yeah, sorry Dende but my brother's out there doing who knows what and we need to go stop him." I told Dende.

He sighed slowly, his shoulders slumping. "Okay." He looked at Trunks and me. "Be careful okay? I'll tell the other Namekians that you're leaving."

"That'd be great, thanks Dende." Trunks said.

"We'll try to be careful okay?" I added.

Dende nodded and started to run off, waving back at us, before calling back to us. "You're welcome to stop by whenever you'd like too!" "Thanks Dende, we'll try to visit again sometime." I replied, waving goodbye to him. When he was out of sight I let my hand drop to my side and looked at Trunks. "Ready?"

He nodded and placed a hand on my shoulder. I placed two fingers on my forehead and concentrated for a minute or two before Namek suddenly disappeared and was replaced with a dark, rundown town, it looked more like ruins actually.

"So this is the place huh? Kind of a dump don't you think?" Trunks said, examining our surroundings. I suddenly grabbed his sleeve and pulled him into a wrecked house without warning, making him kneel down with me. He looked at me with a confused look on his face. "What was that-" I covered his mouth with my hand before he could finish and placed a finger on my lips, making a quiet shushing sound, to tell him to keep quiet.

I pointed out the broken window as two dark green men flew by, both dressed in dark purple armor. Once they passed by, I let my hand drop to my side and looked back at Trunks. "We'll have to be careful, those guys are everywhere." I whispered. Trunks nodded.

I peeked out the door, keeping myself hidden in the shadows, and examined the buildings outside, no guards. I looked back at Trunks and motioned for him to follow me. We both snuck out of the house and made our way through the ruins, moving in the shadows and hiding from any passing guards. I stopped at the edge of the ruins and knelt down behind a large fragment of a wall, Trunks knelt next to me, and peeked over the top.

"Any idea where Broly and Paragus are?" Trunks whispered.

I glanced at him before pointing at a large palace-looking building next to a beach a mile or two away, a path led up from the shore to a large plateau several yards away. "In there." I replied quietly.

Trunks looked at the large building. "Are you sure?"

I nodded. "There's no doubt in my mind, if Paragus is still the same as I remember him, then he and Broly are definitely in there... Question is, how are we gonna get in without being seen by the guards?"

Trunks tilted his head to the side slightly, examining the palace. "You could use Instant Transmission to get in."

I shook my head. "No, we'd pop up right in front of them, giving them the chance to attack first." I looked back at the palace. "And that's not such a good idea."

"So what do you want to do? Sneak around and try our luck? Wait for Goku and the others to show up? Or are we gonna barge right in?"

I thought for a bit. "We can't wait for Goku, that would take too long, so... we're going to have to try our luck and sneak in."

"And if that doesn't work?"

I smiled. "Then we force our way, it would be way more fun to just do that in the first place, but it would be too noisy, so it's plan B for now."

Trunks chuckled softly. "Okay then, lead the way."

I rolled my eyes before vaulting over the wall and making my way to the edge of a small forest, Trunks followed me but he walked around the wall instead of vaulting over it. We both flew through a small forest, we flew so we wouldn't step on leaves or sticks that were on the ground, before reaching a cliff that led from the plateau to the palace, a road on top of it. We flew a little closer to the palace before flying to the top of the cliff, but we didn't touch the ground before we knew it was safe. It wasn't so easy making our way to the palace on the open road though. Guards were practically everywhere, in the air, on the road, we had more than enough close calls.

"Paragus has security down, I'll give him that." Trunks whispered as we hid from another passing guard.

"No kidding." I mumbled. I looked over the cliff. "We should make our way back down and fly the rest of the way to the palace."

Trunks looked at me with a raised eyebrow. "No way, we're almost there. We should keep traveling on the road."

"If we do then we'll get caught! And even if we do manage to keep sneaking past these guys, it'll take forever to reach the palace at this pace."

"Then we should just force our way in, these guys don't look so tough."

I shook my head slowly. "One of the things Goku taught me was to never underestimate your opponent. These guys may not look very tough, but they might be strong."

Trunks sighed. "Fine..."

"Who's there!?" A muffled voice called from the road, making Trunks and me freeze. "I know you're there, show yourself!"

Trunks and I looked at each other and nodded, time for plan B. We jumped out of our hiding spot and charged at the guard. We both landed a punch to the guard's stomach and launched him into the air, sending him flying, hopefully far away.

"What was that?" Another muffled voice sounded behind us, followed by the sound of running footsteps.

Trunks and I spun around just in time to punch two guards in the face, each of us punching one guard. They both fell to the ground motionless, but still breathing. A shrill whistle blew from nearby, followed by loud shouts that echoed in the air.

I gritted my teeth and turned to Trunks. "Come on, we don't need to waste time with these guys." I said, flying towards the palace. Trunks looked at me before flying after me.

We easily made it into the palace with a few fights, but inside the palace was a different story, guards were around almost every corner and ready for battle, but they were no match for Trunks and me. We would team up against one guard, punching or kicking them at the same time and in the same spot, making a lethal combo. But when we couldn't team up against one, we would go back-to-back and fight the guards off.

A guard charged me with a long sword. "Heads up!" I said before ducking under him, wrapping my arms around his waist, and throwing him over my shoulder. Trunks shoved his fist into the guard's back as the guard flipped into the air. He let out a yelp before falling to the floor, motionless.

"Five more." Trunks said. I nodded before dropping to the floor and spinning around on my back, my legs outstretched, several times as five guards charged us, knocking them off balanced. Trunks had jumped into the air to avoid getting tripped by me, he spun around in the air with one leg outstretched, kicking all five guards in the jaw with his foot, dislocating or breaking their jaw. They all fell limply to the floor. Trunks landed on the floor as I jumped to my feet, both of us taking a fighting stance again.

"Here comes one." I said.

"Same here." Trunks replied. There was a slight pause as two guards charged Trunks and me before Trunks spoke up again. "Now?"

I nodded. "Now!" We both jumped into the air just in time to dodge the charging guards, making them slam into each other head on, they both fell to the floor, unconscious. Trunks and I landed on our feet at the same time, standing next to each other, the two guards that had charged us laid at our feet. All the other guards were either dead or unconscious. "Come on, they're close." I said as I started to run down the hallway. Trunks looked at me before following close behind me, both of us on guard.

I turned a corner but suddenly slid to a stop, Trunks bumped into me a little bit when he turned the corner behind me. "Kiela? You're the one who set off the alarm? But... How did you get away from Barris?!" Paragus said, stunned as he stood on the other side of the hall, Broly standing behind him and staring at me blankly.


A/N: Okay, longer chapter this time, and I got it up a little earlier this time, woohoo! Anyways, Kiela meets everyone in the future and she and Trunks get to the planet where Paragus and Broly are, more fighting starts in the next chapter. I'll update as soon as I can!
