Author: "AHTAH NOUT TYM! Like my Engrish? No...? ... *sob* ANYWAYS, I FINALLY began uploading that other DBZ fan fiction I've been telling you guys about for the past couple of chapters. It's called 'To Be Born Anew,' and, like I've said a quadrillion times, it actually follows the DBZ storyline much closer than Lost Origin does. If you wanna read it, go check it out on my profile page.

Now, this chapter, there's a little bit more action going on than on the previous one, but there's still a lot of background to cover. At the beginning, at least. Also, I'm going to start using those line break thingamajigers, just to make it easier to read. I'll also come back to previous chapters and add them to those, but all in due time. So, yeah, read, review, follow, fave, do whatchu wanna do."

Lost Origin: A Saiyan's Quest

Assistant: "Sire, sire! Our radio signals show that there is a possibility that two Saiyan life forms exist close to the location of one of our antennas!"

"Good. Send more spy antennas to that location."

Assistant: "Yes, sire."

"Once we know exactly where they are, I want you to give me detailed information on what those Saiyans are planning on."

Assistant: "Of course, sire."

Chapter 31: Immediate Domination

Last time, our heroes arrived at Starflow Kingdom, Andromeda's destination, and where our heroes would stay the night just to rest for their journey back to Waterleaf Village. While waiting for the princess, Sakura, Scorzette, and Ninomiya decided to wait in the library (well, more like Scorzette chose for them, but still). In the library Sakura took the chance to ask Scorzette about her past. And that story is still going.

Scorzette: "While on my spaceship, I had no idea where I should be headed. I didn't have a home planet anymore, and there was no way I was going to return to that hell of a desert, not like there was anything for me back there anyways. So all I did was just open the ship's database and look for anything that would help me survive. And so I found a file that contained the Saiyan's lifestyle, being a space pirate that conquers a planet to sell it. It reminded me of how my parents always used to bash on the other Saiyans for following Frieza's commands, but with what those dark men in the desert taught me, I began believing this was what I should do. With that in mind, I looked for the closest planet with the weakest people and went there. When I landed, I began breaking havoc all around the area, easily overpowering the weaklings that tried to stand before me."

Sakura: "Oh no… do you regret doing that?"

Scorzette: "Well… I certainly could have found a different way to negotiate… however, I tried not to kill anyone, just to make them surrender. But the best way to intimidate them WAS to kill some of them, so I did… They surrendered quickly, and I told them to give me their supplies, ranging from food, medicine, money… and in the end, I made it clear that I had taken over that planet, and that I would come back just to sell it to some other powerful leader. I kept this lifestyle for three years, invading and conquering, just like that, until I turned 18. Then I began to feel strange. I didn't know what it was back then, but I do now. It was emptiness, loneliness, a lack of anyone to agree with my actions. And that's when I found out that some of those baby Saiyans that were saved from Planet Vegeta's annihilation were still alive. All of this information came from a fortuneteller I threatened to kill if he didn't help me. With his fortune ball, I found out about you, Litua. He told me exactly where you were, and that's all I needed. I went into my spaceship and headed towards Earth where I could find you. Little did I know that, well, THIS was going to happen."

Sakura: "So that's how you knew about me…"

Scorzette: "Yes… all I have to say is… I'm s… so... sorry… for acting like I did back then… but at least now you know why. You know… you're the only person I've ever told my story to. No one else would dare find the roots of my rage. And no one else besides you is. It pains me just to think about the past, it pains me too much to tell that story again. Though… now that you know about me, how about you tell me your story."

Sakura: "My story? Well, I don't know anything about me back in Planet Vegeta, but I do know my life on Earth. It all started when Ninomiya found me…"

Sakura told Scorzette all about her life on Earth. From the moment Ninomiya found her spaceship on Waterleaf Mountain to the demon battles on West City. Now that the two Saiyans knew each other's stories, they would be able to understand each other better. But there were two things that bothered Scorzette about Sakura…

Scorzette: "Well… you clearly don't know how to read and write the Saiyan language, as well as not knowing how your spaceship actually works. Litua, you and I are going to go through that as soon as you get me to your spaceship in Waterleaf Village. But another thing… you… don't know how to control your Great Ape form without that stupid, lengthy meditation?"

Sakura: "Hey, it's not stupid! It helps me calm down."

Scorzette: *sigh* "Look, Litua, I know you don't like me to bring up the 'a true Saiyan warrior' thing, BUT A TRUE SAIYAN WARRIOR… knows how to control themselves in Great Ape form no problem, without the need of any weird pre-rituals."

Sakura: "B-B-B-B-But I don't know how to… if I don't meditate, I'll go berserk and hurt people I don't want to hurt…"

Scorzette: "Yes, and that's precisely why you're coming with me tonight. If it's true that there is always a full moon in this place, then it's perfect."

Sakura: "No! I'll end up hurting you!"

Scorzette: "Oh, don't worry. I'll make sure you're the one that doesn't want to get hurt…" *evil eye shine*

Sakura: "… I'm scared…"

Meanwhile, in Starflow Castle…

Andromeda: "Ah, the good ol' power core. It feels like years since I felt this thing. And it's time to fix that!"

The power core was a massive sphere in the lowest part of Starflow Castle's basement, even below the Earth surface. This was the main source of galactic energy for the entire kingdom. However, when there was a lot of action around the Earth, the power core would overcharge with energy and needed to release. Andromeda was the one that took care of calming the core down. Since she summoned so many meteors, comets, and other sorts of galactic objects, the power core became overcharged.

Andromeda: "Alright, here I come!"

Andromeda jumped towards the core and clung the World Breaker into the massive sphere, creating a crack. From the crack, energy came bursting through, right onto Andromeda. She absorbed all the energy that came out of the core until it was no longer overcharged, diminishing the sphere's size and self-healing the crack. Now, with the energy absorbed, Andromeda was more powerful than before!

Andromeda: "Ah… man, did I miss that feeling… that's about the most fun thing there is to do in this kingdom. Right, now that that's taken care of, it's time to go back with the others."

10 minutes later…

Andromeda: "Hey, guys, I'm back."

Sakura: "Welcome back, Andromeda! How are the king and queen?"

Andromeda: "Not very interesting, as usual. At least the kingdom is in good standing. And I got me some more energy."

Sakura: "Really? How did you get more energy?"

Andromeda: "Aaahh… it's a little bit complicated, but just know it's one of the best feelings in the world…"

Ninomiya: "Andromeda, are you high?"

Andromeda: *slaps Ninomiya* "… look… I might be your friend… but I'm still a princess, and I have standards, Ninomiya. Don't you ever say that again!"

Ninomiya: *covering cheek* "O… OK… oooouuuchhhh…"

Scorzette: "(Haha, had it coming) Anyways, Andromeda, Litua and I were wondering if you know of any place that's free of human life forms but still part of this kingdom."

Sakura: "We… were…?"

Scorzette: "Yes, Litua, we were (don't think you're getting away from this training!)."

Andromeda: "Well, there is a desert pretty close by, still part of the kingdom. It used to be dangerous to go there because King Avarez had his headquarters there, but Sakura destroyed it."

Scorzette: "Wow… Litua, you actually set up our training field in advance! Good job… wait… why are there so many deserts around…?"

Andromeda: "Well, it's called Planet EARTH for a reason."

Scorzette: "I… guess…"

Andromeda: "… any who, come with me to the castle, I'll show you guys the guest room so you can stay the night."

Finally leaving the library, our heroes went to Starflow Castle to see the guest room, this being the same room Sakura and Ninomiya slept at when they first arrived at Starflow Kingdom. When night-time came, Scorzette took Sakura to the desert where King Avarez used to have his head quarters at. It was time for Sakura's training…

Scorzette: "Alright, first of all, do you know the science behind the Great Ape form?"

Sakura: "There's… science behind it…?"

Scorzette: "Of course there's science, Litua! What, you thought it was magic?"

Sakura: "Yes…"

Scorzette: "… OKAY. A Saiyan's tail has special glands that allow the transformation to take place. That's condition one, to actually have a tail…" *shakes fist at the thought of Ninomiya*

Sakura: "Scorzette… are you OK…?"

Scorzette: "I'M FINE! Anyways, next thing. A Saiyan must then receive at least 17 million Blutz Waves through his or her eyes. Blutz Waves are a special kind of wave reflected by a moon or planetary object of about the size of the moon in this planet. The moon or planet must reflect light from a star, like the sun, and it must be in full luminosity, hence why only a FULL moon works, and it can't be cloudy."

Sakura: "So that's why I never transformed in Waterleaf Village, Ninomiya always made it cloudy…"

Scorzette: "Well, now that you know how it works, it's time to transform. I would transform myself," *turns to look at Starflow Kingdom* "BUT A CERTAIN SOMEONE!"

Meanwhile, in Starflow Kingdom…

Ninomiya: "Huh?"

Andromeda: "Hm? What's wrong, Ninomiya?"

Ninomiya: "It's just… it feels like someone really wants to kill me right now…"

Andromeda: "Oh, the usual."

Ninomiya: "Yeeea—wait, what?"

Back in the desert…

Scorzette: "OK, now transform."

Sakura: "Oh… well, let me just meditate before I look at the moon…"

Scorzette: "Medita… oh, for the love of… JUST LOOK AT IT!"

Scorzette grabbed Sakura by the head and forced her to look at the moon, before Sakura could even begin her meditation exercise. Without a clear mind, Sakura would turn into a Great Ape in the old fashioned way and go berserk! But Scorzette wasn't scared at all.

Sakura (Great Ape): "RAAAAARRRR!"

Scorzette: "Alright, now quiet."

Sakura (Great Ape): "RAAAAAAAARRRRRHHH!"

Scorzette: "Quiet!"

Sakura (Great Ape): "RAAAARRRRRGGGGHHH!"

Scorzette: *jumps in front of Sakura's face and stands on Sakura's nose* "I SAID QUIET!"

Sakura (Great Ape): "Aarr…"

Scorzette: "… good. Great Ape or not, you're still Litua, so your personality is kept at least somewhat. And since you're all innocent-like, you're easy to subdue."

Sakura (Great Ape): "… aarr?"

Scorzette: "Alright, now that I got you where I wanted, this shouldn't be so hard to teach. Other races believe that us Saiyans are only mindless beasts on Great Ape form, and I LOOOVE proving them wrong! Well, first of all, let's get the basics down. You should be able to talk just the same. Say… I don't know… your name?"

Sakura (Great Ape): "Uuurrr… Ssss… Ss… Sa… Saku… ra… Sakura…"

Scorzette: "Your name is Litua, damn it! Ah, whatever, at least you said something. Now say it faster."

Sakura (Great Ape): "… Sakura… Sakura. Sakura. Sakura! Scorzette!"

Scorzette: "You learn fast! Now say 'Seven Saiyan sailors soared the simian sea sinking seven ships.'"

Sakura (Great Ape): "Sss-s-ss-se-s… hurr?"

Scorzette: *eye roll* "'kay, fine, just say something you'd usually say."

Sakura (Great Ape): "Umm… good… morning, Scorzette."

Scorzette: "It's night time, but whatever. Just keep it comin', you need to practice speaking more."

Sakura (Great Ape): "Umm… what would I… do I look scary like this?"

Scorzette: "The fact that right now you're a gigantic, muscular ape with shining red eyes and sharp fangs could be terrifying, but then the fact that you're wearing those clothes and that in reality you're just a naïve girl that's happy all the time takes the fear away."

Sakura (Great Ape): "It feels kinda cozy to wear this, actually! You know, with all the fur and stuff, it's soft…"

Sakura and Scorzette continued to talk for hours, until Sakura began feeling tired from the transformation. Scorzette slept on top of Sakura's gigantic body, but by morning time, they were sleeping right beside each other (d'aawwww). What kind of training awaits Sakura in the future? Who is this mysterious figure and his/her/its assistant? Find out next time on Lost Origin: A Saiyan's Quest!

To be continued…

Bonus skit

In a moment of randomness, Sakura felt curious about a certain topic that no one expected her to ask…

Sakura: "Where do babies come from?"

Ninomiya: "WHA—eh… it's… ah… I… well… I don't… how do I…"

Andromeda: "Well… it's like… uh… where can I start… um…"

Scorzette: "… you humans are embarrassed to talk about sex?" *sigh* "Come with me, Litua, I'll explain."

Scorzette took Sakura to their room and explained. Once done, everyone was surprised to see Sakura's unimpressed face.

Sakura: "Thanks, Scorzette! No one ever felt like explaining it to me, they said I was too young…"

Ninomiya: "Wait, Sakura, you're not in shock?! But… how?! Did you lie to her, Scorzette?!"

Scorzette: "I told her the exact process, you moron! Only difference is that I told her the Saiyan way, which is similar to yours, except it's more action-packed."

Ninomiya: "But it's such a touchy subject!"

Scorzette: "It's not a touchy subject, you humans made it touchy for your kids! If you didn't make a big deal about it, then it wouldn't be so hard to explain! You're telling me that gruesome violence and murder is not as 'adult-only' as bodily functions? Give me a break!"
