Chapter 02 - Armor of Stars
Twenty years have passed since the female saiyan arrived on this little planet. She was now a fine woman with an average height with beautiful curves built to perfection. Well, she did train herself hard! Katsumi had straighter black hair that fell down to her chin but had also two longer pair of hair near each of her ears that fell down to her shoulder. Each ends of these two was attached with a golden ring. Her skin is tanned but not too much.
Katsumi was sitting on a hill after her morning exercises. She decided to meditate to ease again her mind from the talk of yesterday with her friend Maia.
--FLASHBACK--
"You will be attending the ceremony, aren't you?", asked Maia.
They were together in a field with a lot of flowers. They were sent there to pick flowers for the ceremony tonight.
"Hai. Of all the people of the village, the elder told me this armor is only given to the strongest and also for special reasons", Katsumi responded.
"The Armor of Stars. You should be happy!!", exclaimed Maia, taking both hands of Katsumi in hers.
"It is just an armor for me. A piece of metal that I should wear. I don't see the purpose of this." Maia sighed hearing what Katsumi said. She didn't know what to tell her friend to cheer her up. Katsumi looked at her friend, seeing that sad face of hers.
"Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't want to hurt your feelings", she pleads.
"It's ok. I know the things you said are not really what you felt inside" Katsumi smiled hearing this. Being friends with her for almost ten years was the best thing since the time she knew that she wasn't from this planet. Maia can understand her no matter how hard she tried to suppress her feelings to others.
"Maia!! As your name means, you are the greatest. Thank you for being my friend and do not worry about me, I will wear that armor since it is a privilege to have it." Then she gave her a crown of flower that she made as a token of their friendship. They smiled at each other and then went back to the village.
--END FLASHBACK--
The wind blew softly across her face. She sighed again. *There is not turning back now. I should go back home in order to prepare myself for tonight.*

As the people of Belzahem were preparing the ceremony for Katsumi. She was in the house of the elder in order to wear the armor.
"Wooww!! It's so beautiful", said Katsumi with wide eyes. The armor is silver and the outfit is black. It comes with silver boots that go up to the knees and silver body armor with two steel sheets of metal on each forearm. At the belt, there are also two steel sheets of metal which joint at the navel by a star shape crystal.
"But what for? And why me?"
"Ye who are the strongest among us must have it. It is our custom to do give it to the one who will protect the Universe", explained the elder Fiorenti.
"Protect the universe? I do not understand… Please explain to me."
"Do not worry child, all will be clear to you later, I promise. Now prepare yourself to receive the blessing of the armor."
"Hai!!" Katsumi put on the armor and she looked marvellous in it. *Kami-sama!! The armor is not heavy at all, it is like a bag of feathers!* "Well, this is it…the big ceremony. I just hope that everything will be fine."

Well, that's it for today. Thanks for reading, please review my story/chapters. This will help me to continue with the story. And if you wanted to ask, the name Maia means "great" in Latin. I saw this website where you can find the meaning of names. That also helped me in order to find the names of the bad guys. ~Jamatane!~
