Kiela!" Trunks yelled as he, Goku, Gohan, and Vegeta quickly flew to where they last saw me.
"It looks like she hit that cliff side." Gohan said, pointing at a large, stone cliff side that had a human outline cut into it.
"Okay, but where is she now?" Trunks asked as they landed at the foot of the cliff, behind a small lake.
Vegeta turned around when he thought he heard something moving in the water. "In the lake." He said.
"What?!" Trunks ran up to the water edge, sucked in a deep breath, and dunked his head in the water, looking around, before pulling his head back out. "I can't see her or the bottom!" He said as he shook the water from his hair.
"That doesn't matter, we're going in after her." Gohan said.
Trunks nodded. "Right!" But before anyone could jump in, Vegeta suddenly ran passed them and dived into the lake, shocking everyone. "What just happened?" Gohan asked in shock after a few seconds of silence.
Goku chuckled. "Kiela saved Vegeta's life quite a few times, I guess he's returning the favor." He explained.
"What? But... my father would never do something like that... would he?" Trunks asked.
Goku shrugged. "Who knows with Vegeta."
Trunks looked back at the water's surface as it started to become still again. "Come on father, you can do it..." He thought.
Vegeta swam deeper and deeper into the dark lake, looking out for any sign of me. A few bubbles and some light blue cloth came into his view, making Vegeta swim faster. He finally got within reach and grabbed my wrist, pulling my limp body up to him, before he wrapped his arm around my waist and shooting to the surface. He broke through the water's surface seconds later with me next to him and landed on the dry ground next to Goku, Gohan, and Trunks. He put me on the ground before crossing his arms over his chest and walking towards the cliff wall without a word, catching his breath.
"Is she alive?" Gohan asked as he, Goku, and Trunks knelt next to me.
Trunks bit his lower lip and checked for a pulse. It was faint, and very slow, but there was a pulse. "Barely, she must have water in her lungs."
Trunks placed two hands on my upper chest and pushed down as hard as he could, trying to get all the water out of my lungs. It seemed like it took forever as Trunks kept pushing kept pushing down on my chest with no success. But when it seemed like I was too far gone, I started to cough, a ton of water coming from my mouth, and gasped for breath. I blinked several times to focus before propping myself up on my elbows to sit up and looked at all the relieved faces staring back at me.
"What's everyone staring at..?" I asked, still out of breath. "Did I miss something-"
Trunks suddenly pulled me close and kissed me on the lips, stopping me in midsentence. My eyes were wide and I froze as I blinked in surprise. Goku and Gohan laughed while Vegeta glared at his son. When Trunks pulled away, he wrapped his arms around me and hugged me tightly, making sure that I could still breathe.
"It's good to have you back..." He whispered in my ear.
I blinked again, not able to say anything for a while since I was so dazed by how Trunks reacted when I came to. "Uh... Good to be back..." I said slowly, not sure what to say. After a few seconds of awkward silence, Trunks pulled back, his face red. I scratched my head in embarrassment before standing up on unsteady legs, my tail swishing back and forth to help me keep my balance, I was still a little dizzy from the lack of oxygen. Thank goodness that was over... I think...
"Now that that's over with," Goku started, placing a hand on my shoulder to keep me from falling over again. "Let's go find Piccolo and Krillin and get off this planet."
Gohan tapped his shoulder. "Uh, dad? The ship got destroyed during the fight with Broly..."
Goku looked at him. "So? We still have Instant Transmission, Kiela and I can both use it to get out of here."
Gohan chuckled once. "Good point."
Goku looked at me. "Can you use Instant Transmission in that state?"
I looked at him with a smile. "Course I can, piece of cake." I replied.
He nodded. "Alright, I'll take Gohan, Piccolo, and Krillin with me and you can take Vegeta and Trunks okay?"
I glanced back at Vegeta, but his eyes were set on something else, then looked back at Goku and nodded. "No problem."
He nodded back. "Okay, once I'm gone you can concentrate on my energy signature, got it?"
I gave him a thumbs up, standing on my own now. "Got it."
"Looks like Piccolo found us." Gohan said. We all looked up at the sky as Piccolo flew towards us, Krillin tucked under his arm.
He landed next to us and looked at Vegeta's and my soaked clothes. "Take a quick swim?" He asked.
I snickered. "I wish..." I replied.
Piccolo shrugged and turned to Goku. "So what's the plan?"
"Kiela and I will use our Instant Transmission to get us back to Earth." Goku started. "I'm taking you, Krillin, and Gohan, and Kiela's taking Vegeta and Trunks."
Piccolo nodded. "Whenever you're ready then." He placed the hand that wasn't holding Krillin on one of Goku's shoulders and Gohan did the same.
Goku placed his fore and middle fingers on his forehead like I did and looked at me. "See you back on Earth." He said before he disappeared into thin air, Piccolo, Krillin, and Gohan gone too.
I shrugged and turned to Trunks. "Ready?" I asked.
He stood next to me and took my hand in his, holding it tightly. "You bet." He said.
I looked at him and smiled before looking at Vegeta as he glared at me. I led Trunks towards him and stood in front of Vegeta, watching him for a few seconds before holding my hand out to him. "Come on Prince of all Saiyans, time to go." I said gently, a friendly smile on my lips.
He kept glaring at me for a few seconds before tsking and looking away, but he hesitantly reached his hand out and took mine. I smiled again and squeezed his hand, he wasn't the only Saiyan who remembers, and lost, everything. A few seconds after my hand closed around his, we all disappeared.
A/N: Surprise! Vegeta saved Kiela, weren't expecting that huh? But even if you were it's still really cool. Also, Trunks is so sweet. Anyways, the next chapter is the last chapter for Into the Future. It's sad I know, but I'll be posting the next story as soon as I figure it all out. I'll post the last chapter of Into the Future tomorrow, so until then guys!
