Chapter 16: Preparing For Battle

The door opened in a whisper of air and the Z warriors stared out at an eager looking group of females. The women stood on an emerald green tiled floor and computers buzzed behind them like they had lives of their own, and perhaps the computers did. The walls were a lime green and had hatred black trim. The room was about the size of an entire grocery store, and the ship was parked right in the center.

"If this is your entire planet then you're in trouble, and I don't mean with just your `invaders'. Secondly, if this is your entire planet, that means these pathetic females are your invaders, and I would be sorely disappointed to have come so far for such poor opponents." Vegeta growled, crossing blue spandex covered arms over a very yummy chest.

"Now now Vegeta, no need to get hostile." Luana smiled, brushing past them, nodding an acknowledgment at the group of female warriors. Her waist length bronze hair swayed as she walked, the light catching a few shimmering pieces of copper in the stream of bronze. Yamcha watched as Luana swayed her hips a bit more than was necessary, giving him a nice view of her backside. He licked his lips unconsciously. Bulma rolled her eyes, brushing past the `Z' warriors just as Luana had, but she didn't sway her hips. She walked, calmly, towards the ever patient females of Monteazul, proud that she didn't scream at anyone, or bite anyone's head off.

"So this is your planet?" Goku asked in a child's voice. "I think Vegeta was right…it is kind of small…" He tilted his head, staring into the room, slowly walking down the ramp to the tiled floor. Vegeta followed suit, Celerina following close behind. As for the remainder of the warriors, they were unsure and hesitated at the door of the ship. Celerina didn't bother waiting, she waded through the group of females, and they parted like a sea before its inhabitants. Vegeta, Goku, Bulma, and Luana followed, the rest of the female warriors tagging behind in a mass of bright shimmering hair. The females of Monteazul all had three things in common. They were all very beautiful. They all had very long hair, and they all had stand out colors of hair. Colors you wouldn't soon forget. Like the color could burn an image in the back of your mind and it would be there for eternity.

"Warriors of Earth, we have called upon your aid and you have granted it. Now we will provide you with everything necessary to fulfill your aid to us." Celerina's candy voice carried throughout the entire room, but she had not spoken loudly. As if on cue, three females stepped forward, holding two boxes a piece. The boxers were ordinary cardboard boxes, stacked on top of each other. They were the size of a computer boxes. Vegeta, Bulma, and Goku stood in a line, side by side, staring at the women standing four feet in front of them. The females also stood in the same kind of line. Vegeta took the first step forward, and Celerina motioned him to the female in the middle. He walked to her, and took the top box from her, tossing the lid on the floor. With thumb and forefinger, he picked out a piece of something from the box and he chuckled.

"I think I'm going to enjoy this…" He smirked, turning his head toward Goku. Goku stepped forward and the Sire motioned him to the female on the right. He took the top box as well, tossing the lid on the floor just as Vegeta had.

"Wow!" Goku yelled excitedly. "This is cool!" He laughed idiotically, picking through the stuff in the box. Bulma was the last to step forward and she headed for the female on the left. Celerina stopped her and motioned her to herself. Celerina had a box that she hadn't had before. This box was black leather and smaller than the other boxes.

"We got something special for you, since you are not of a strong…supernatural nature." Celerina said slowly. "Very strong for an Earth female, but no special abilities." She handed the box to Bulma carefully. Bulma gripped the lid and the Sire stopped her. "No, not now, use it just before we begin the battle." She smiled warmly and Bulma nodded.

"Wait a minute…there is no way that woman is going to fight…" Vegeta growled, turning sharp eyes upon Bulma and Celerina.

"What's that matter `Geta, afraid I'll get hurt? Or maybe you're afraid I'll beat you in the fighting ranks." She smirked, lifting her chin some. Vegeta gritted his teeth.

"I'm neither concerned with your well being or your ability to fight, because the it would be easier for me if you died, and you can't fight at all. I just don't want you getting in my way." He spat, his voice sounding angrier than ever. Bulma's chest tightened at his words. Easier…if she were dead? She wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of knowing he had hurt her. She had given him that pleasure one too many times. In fact, probably a thousand times too many.

"Yeah, right. You're just fucking jealous that I can do just about anything better than you can, why don't you just face up to the facts Vegeta." Bulma rolled her eyes, feeling proud that she hadn't stuttered. Vegeta clenched his fists, his jaw working feverishly. The three females held out the four remaining boxes for the rest of the `Z' warriors. Gohan, Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien, and Krillen all stepped forward. They frowned, there were only four boxes left and five people.

"Yamcha, I have a special task for you…" Celerina said slowly, as if reading the fighter's minds. "You will be helping me with something while the others fight." She smiled and it was all the encouragement Yamcha needed, he stepped over by her side.

"Do we have to have certain boxes?" Piccolo asked slowly. He picked up on the fact Celerina had directed each person to his/her box.

"The child, Gohan, must take the top box from Nira, the female on the left, other than that, no." She said blankly. They all nodded and each grabbed a box from the ladies. "The changing rooms are to the left if you want to get geared up right away…" Everyone nodded and the warriors headed through a door to the left.

Luana smiled, and nodded as she received instructions on what to do. Looking over at Bulma, who had been conversing with the other female warriors, she smirked, feeling triumphant before the battle even began. Luana took a deep breath, went over to Bulma and spoke in tones so only they could hear.

"Bulma, you are the key to winning this battle." Luana whispered, gripping Bulma's elbow and steering her slowly towards the door leading out.

Bulma almost protested but instead questioned Luana's intentions. "Where are we going? And how am I the key to winning a battle against invaders not even you guys can beat?" She inquired slowly, as they reached the door. Luana opened it, and Bulma caught view of a very rocky planet, with very little grass, the sky a dark gray.

"I'll tell you everything along the way…we must get prepared for the fight…" Luana said, closing the door behind them.

The `Z' warriors exited the dressing room, clad in their very new outfits, feeling triumphant already.

"You all look splendid!" Celerina chimed, clapping her hands together. She pointed to seven females standing in a line. "They have each of your coordinates, go to your specified spot and you'll know what to do when you get there." She smiled and everyone grabbed their pieces of paper. Everyone was preparing for battle.

***

Goku flew at top speed, anxious for the fight that was ahead of him. When he reached where he was supposed to be, he touched down, scanning the area. Slowly, very very slowly, there came a figure into his view. Once he could clearly make out the figure, he frowned deeply.

"What are you doing here?" He questioned in a child's voice.

***

Tien walked to where his position was. It was only a mile away, flying seemed like a waste of energy. Once he got to the exact spot, a figure appeared before him. His eyes widened and his mouth fell open.

"You can't be who I'm supposed to fight…" He said slowly.

***

Krillen also flew to his destination, though a lot more slowly than Goku had taken off. Unlike everyone else, Krillen wasn't anxious to reach the fight. He finally reached his spot after a few minutes, landing reluctantly and immediately noticed the persons presence.

"How'd you get here?" He tilted his head, rubbing his bald dome.

***

Gohan skipped along with Piccolo, they were lucky to have gotten the same coordinates. Piccolo glared down at a laughing Gohan. This was no laughing matter, but his attention shifted to in front of them where Gohan was looking. Gohan had stopped skipping and was frowning with thought. Piccolo was the one who spoke.

"What the.."

***

Vegeta touched down, not too far from where the base had been. Crossing his arms he looked around, sensing the power before seeing the person. He clenched his fists, whirling in the direction of the person who wielded the power.

"Why are you bothering me woman!?" He growled, clenching his black gloved fists.

AN: I'm gonna leave it there :P uh oh, who's bothering my poor Vegeta? *Smiles* you have to tune in to read the next chapter whenever I get it out. And who are the Z warriors questioning? Hope you enjoy, please review! ^_^
