So guess who's back? Sorry it's been a few months since I last updated, I kinda lost motivation for my stories and then life swept me up. before we get into the reviews we're going to adress a few of the more commonly asked questions that I get.
Q) Is Adriane going to have a partner and if so are they going to be a boy/girl/other?
A) Yes Adriane is going to have a partner, they won't show up for awhile though and I'm keeping the gender a surprise otherwise people might figure it out ;)
Q) Is Adriane going to date Goku/Gohan/Vegeta?
A) No, she's not going to date anyone that's an adult or a child, Gohan is really young and Goku and Vegeta are adults, both ideas are gross.
Q) You spelt this name/thing wrong (I know this isn't a question but I get reviews like this a lot)
A) Thank you for letting me know, I am dyslexic and there's only so much a spell checker and or a beta reader can do to catch my spelling errors.
Q) I thought Adriane already did this thing? / What about [random thing]
A) I have three ongoing stories and I forget some things, this story is actually so long that even when i go back to reread it, by the time I finish there are things I've forgotten already :(
Alright now lets get into the actual reviews.
Irina Akashira chapter 53 . Apr 25
So yout MC has now a crazy dryad-like aunt, funny
Maybe if MC uses some potion to turn her back in a human, and clean her memory to before she was turned, it would be enough to clear charges
Anyway, it seems like MC blame her to not take care of her or adopt when her parents died, but considering that basically dumbledork sent and kept Sirius in jail to avoid he take care/adopt her, I doubt he would have consented, specially if she was in the states and it would has been harder to keep monitored
Me: Adriane wouldn't do that to anyone, she just wants her aunt to be less insane but she won't erase her aunts memories or turn her back to "normal" since it would seem too much like what Dumbledore did to her.
I actually address the second part of your review in this chapter, but Adriane was so upset she wasn't thinking at the time, she wasn't even truly upset for herself and what could have happened with her, she was more upset that this woman didn't know her sister was dead for fourteen years.
outlawchrono chapter 53 . Apr 30
A great story that i enjoy reading, not many would take such different plots and mix as well as you have done. however i was thinking that you might want to have dbz elements added after raditz but before vegeta arrives. reason being is that nappa causes a lot of destruction for several hours and i don't see the league ignoring that, no matter how lightly you want the worlds to mix. unless their all offworld but i think that someone would still be there.
Me: I'm glad you enjoy my story and think I'm mixing the elements together well so far. Sadly I've had an idea on how to introduce the dbz world to the story for awhile and think it'll work out.
tinman543 chapter 40 . May 15
i am sry there is no way a hybrid like her didn't notice anything with 7 YEARS of training even at kitsune- neko level that clara has you hobbled your mc on purpose cause you knew there was no way this would have work otherwise
Me: Well yeah kinda, Voldemort needed to have a body to be able to be killed. Also keep in mind that while Adriane has trained hard she didn't have any experience with real-life combat with someone actually trying to kill her. (Outside of her normal yearly adventures). So she was more focused on keep an eye on the guy trying to kill her than looking at the ground.
Alright now onto the story, hope you like this chapter we're getting into the dbz world with this one.
The next month was busy for Adriane and her family, she had finally come to terms with having Poison Ivy as her aunt. She also knew that it was likely that even if her Aunt had stayed in touch with her mom nothing would have changed about her childhood. That wasn't why she had been so upset though, not really. After having some time to think about why she had been so upset she realized she was upset on behalf of her mom.
She was upset that her Aunt Ivy didn't even know that her sister was dead. She had fourteen years to reach out and figure out that Lily Potter was dead but she hadn't even tried. She knew this because after a week she went to the prison and had a long chat with her aunt.
She learned that she believed that Lily and Petunia were better off not knowing that their sister was now a criminal. Adriane could see it slightly but it was also an excuse in her eyes. Her aunt didn't need to mention that she was a villain, and it was clear she didn't mention her sisters to any of the other criminals of Gotham.
So yes, she was upset that her aunt hadn't kept in contact with her mom and that it had taken fourteen years to hear about her sister's death. She was upset that it had taken Adriane for her Aunt to realize that Lily was dead and no longer around.
Adriane was aware that some of her thoughts weren't rational, she was trying to work on it. That was part of the reason she had gone to visit her aunt in the first place despite saying she would never visit her.
She had also met her cousin Bruce and his family, they were all weirdly protective of her and she could swear that she had met a few of them before.
She was overjoyed when Alfred, the butler, gave her copies of every photo he had of her mom. She made sure to thank him several times, she put the pictures in her photo album the second she got home.
She explained that she and her family decided that Gothem wasn't for them, there were just too many bad memories for her Uncle Jack. While the Wayne family was upset they understood and made her promise to come visit and keep in contact with them.
Now she and her family were moving to Japan, she was thankful that the goblins hired Ericka to teach Sirius and Jack how to speak the local language. Adriane also went to a few lessons to make sure she still knew how to speak it. She was also happy to see the woman who taught her in the time chamber several months ago. She exchanged letters with them once in a while, especially Garnet, but it was nice to see one of them in person.
The house they were moving into was a ways away from the nearest town but it suited their needs just fine. Adriane was shocked to see how advanced this side of the world was and silently wondered why the rest of the world didn't have anything like this.
Sirius had been excited to be able to buy a motorcycle that could fly without any enchants needed. Sure he still added some enchants to make sure the thing could be around large amounts of magic without breaking down, along with an enchant that made it so it didn't need fuel of any kind to be able to run.
The family of three was having fun exploring, it was the day before her fifteenth birthday, and Sirius and Jack went to East City, the nearest town, to go get some supplies. She suspected the two were also picking up some last-minute birthday gifts because otherwise, they could have sent Dobby or Winky to go pick the supplies up.
She decided to go out to the front yard and do some gardening, she finally felt like everything was settling down. For the first time in a long time, she felt content, her plans had been going well since her name came out of the goblet of fire, but she always felt like she was tense and looking over her shoulder waiting for someone to attack her.
Right now though she didn't feel tense, she felt happy. She felt like she could finally move on and heal from everything that happened to her in her life.
Her friends had gotten the rings that she ordered for them a while ago and she got her earrings. The rings and earrings were all charmed to protect their minds and deflect some simple spells, like a stunner or stinging hex. She had added in mind protection when she realized that not all of her friends could defend their minds.
Luna had sent her a long thank you letter for the ring. Turns out the Crumple-Horned Snorkack had a defense that affected the minds of those without proper protection. Her dad was thrilled when he and Luna realized that there was actually a herd of them living in their backyard. The family of two had a long laugh when realizing that they had explored halfway around the world when all along the thing they were searching for was in their backyard stealing their socks the entire time.
Neville sent her a letter explaining that he had a huge argument with his Gran. Turns out the woman was never supposed to raise Neville but he suspected that Dumbledore had a hand in it. He explained about the spells and blocks that had been on him, it made Adriane furious that Neville's gran would put a spell on him that would make him compelled to listen and do whatever his gran wanted him to.
She was glad to hear that her godbrother kicked his gran out of Longbottom Hall and started recruiting healers from different countries to look at his parents. He had them relocated to Longbottom Hall, he didn't want to risk anyone doing something to them now that other healers would be coming to look at the two.
Fleur wrote to tell her that she was now working at Gringotts, something that Adriane hadn't been expecting but she was happy that her friend had such a good job already. Gringotts was a place that didn't look down on magical creatures. If Remus had thought to apply for a position at the bank he might have got a stable job.
Adriane suspected that the werewolf didn't want a stable job for some reason, he seemed to be against anything that could tie him down. He had tried to leave at the end of her third year at Hogwarts without saying goodbye, and he never wrote her despite saying he would keep in touch.
He used being a werewolf as an excuse for a lot of things, like why he refused to date anyone, why he couldn't keep a job, and why he didn't come to check up on her as a child.
Anyway, she was happy that Fleur's life was going well.
Fred and George wrote that things were a bit tense at home and that their brother Ron kept shooting them glares. The two figured that it was because they were friends with 'Harry' while Ron had been shoved to the side the second he showed his true colors. Their mom and sister were taking Ron's side, something they expected but they reassured her that everything else was fine. They only had a year left before they were saving up money to move out since they turned seventeen in April.
The two refused to accept any money from her when she offered to help them out and knowing how stubborn the two were she backed off but let them know the offer was there.
Dobby popped up next to her with some ice-cold lemonade and she decided to take a break, she sat under the shade of a tree as she sipped at her drink and just relaxed for the first time in a while.
She hasn't been able to just sit like this and relax without worrying about anything for ages.
Just as she closed her eyes to relax more she heard a loud explosion causing her to jump up, Her eyes widened when she saw the huge mushroom cloud that was forming. It looked like it was directly over East City.
Adriane froze and felt her heart stop, she dropped her drink to the ground as she quickly took to the sky and flew as fast as she could to the city. She didn't care who saw her right now, she needed to be sure that her family was okay.
She just got them, she couldn't lose her Uncle and Godfather, not again. As she flew closer she saw a huge crater where the city used to be and slowly lowered to the ground and fell to her knees in horror.
"No," She whispered, feeling despair fill her, something in the corner of her eye caught her attention and she saw two men flying away from the crater, they were too far away to have noticed her fly up, not to mention their backs were to her, but they were close enough for her to notice them.
She felt rage fill her body, she didn't care to control her metamorphmagus ability. Her iris turned blood red and her hair flickered between red, black, and yellow as she slowly stood up. She gritted her teeth as she jumped into the air.
She cast a notice-me-not spell on herself before following behind the two men, she kept close to the ground, not wanting to test if the spell would work on these two if she got too close.
While she wanted to attack these two right now, she knew that she needed to study them and figure out their weaknesses.
She followed them until they reached a clearing, she stayed back a bit and hid behind one of the weird tall rocks that were cluttered around the area. She took a good look at the two who killed her family while also taking note of the three in the clearing already.
The first man was bald and looked to be in his early to late thirties, he was well-built and very tall, but she couldn't tell how tall he was from where she was standing. He was wearing strange armor with large shoulder, hip, and front coverings. For some reason he didn't seem to be wearing pants, instead, he wore black underwear. He had fingerless gloves on and armored boots.
He had a mean and eager look on his face, she clenched her fist and gritted her teeth when she saw it.
In fear of attacking him without thinking she turned to look at the second man.
This man looked to be a bit younger than the first, he had long spikey hair that reminded her of Sonic the Hedgehog and she had to suppress a snort. His skin was peach-colored like the first man and his eyes seemed to be black as coal. He was wearing the same armor as the first man, except he was wearing a blue jumpsuit underneath, thank god this man knew what pants were, and he had white gloves and boots.
Turning to look at the three who were already in the clearing she had to do a double-take when she saw what could pass as a taller goblin. Looking close she noticed that the man was tall and clearly worked out often if his muscles were any indication.
He was wearing some weird workout gear, his pants were baggy and a purple color that matched his shirt. He had a blue belt-type thing around his waist and a white cape around his shoulders while wearing a turban. She shuttered when seeing the turban, not because she was against them, but because seeing it brought up some bad memories of her first year at Hogwarts.
All in all, she was wondering if this man was somehow a weird mutated goblin that was super tall.
She glanced at the two behind him and truly hoped that both of them were just really short adults.
The first person her eyes landed on had shaggy black hair being held back with a white headband, he had a light peach complexion. He was wearing a smaller version of the green man's outfit.
The second person was bald with six weird dots on his forehead, he also didn't seem to have a nose which freaked her out a bit. he was wearing an orange martial arts outfit with a logo on it that she didn't recognize.
She listened as the five talked and felt despair when realizing that the smaller black-haired man was actually a child. Her eyes widened she six tiny green goblin things burst from the ground, it was clear they weren't actually goblins but that was the closest thing she had to describe them with. She silently apologized to the goblin nation for possibly insulting them.
She tensed as she prepared to jump in the fight, her eyes narrowed on the two men in armor.
