Chapter Two - To Namek
It was over a year since Furiza had captured Sakura, when he himself came to her cell.
"Come my child," he said to her, standing at the open door of her cell. "You may finally have the privilege of fighting me in person before we leave for Planet Namek. Then I shall summon the dragon, and finally be granted immortality!" Sakura gasped and backed against the wall of her cell. She was just seven years old, and did not see how she could possibly defeat the monster standing before her.
"Your family shall be there to see how much you have developed under my watchful eye. Come!" Sakura hesitated, and Furiza grabbed hold of her tail tightly, preventing any movement on her part. He pulled her all the way to the training area by her tail, and Sakura screamed in pain all the way. "That is your weakness, girl." Furiza hissed at her on the way, "You are never willing to do as you are told. I allow you to see your family, and you show me no gratitude."
In the ring, Sakura stood facing Furiza, trembling with fear. She shifted her body into a fighter's stance and raised her fists, ready to attack.
Furiza leapt forward and lashed out at Sakura with his tail and fingernails. Bruised and aching, Sakura leapt up into the air and landed in the corner of the ring. "Are you tiring little girl?" Furiza called across the ring at her, "Because I am not even getting warmed up yet."
Sakura looked across the ring at him and blinked, a look of false surprise on her face. She wiped blood from her mouth and eyes and smiled. "No. Way." She said angrily, putting long breaks between her words. She raised her arms high into the air and moved suddenly into a series of lightening fast forward flips, and plunged her feet into Furiza's stomach. Caught by surprise, Furiza staggered back several feet, the wind knocked out of him.
Furiza was deeply angered. He threw himself forward and attacked Sakura with no mercy, and she was unable to defend herself against his brutal attacks. Furiza lifted Sakura by the front of her Saiya-jin armour, and threw her against the wall of the room. Sakura's form fell unconscious to the floor. Furiza smiled and walked calmly from the ring.
That night, Furiza's ship departed for Namek. Sakura stayed in her cell, training kicks and punches on her new punch bag. Her old one had been ruined when she had punched a hole through it in a temper. She had been punished harshly for that.
All night, she trained, completing an impressive series of kicks and punches, and eventually kicked the punch bag so hard that the screws were ripped from the ceiling. Sakura sighed, and walked over to her mirror. A large bruise had appeared on her face where Furiza had kicked her. She touched it, and winced. Although it was very painful, Sakura knew that she was lucky that this was the extent of her injuries.
Sakura stared at her reflection, lost in thought. Why was this happening to her and her family? She was just seven years old, and, although she seemed mature and brave on the outside, inside she was just a seven year old girl standing in the middle of a crowded room screaming at the top of her lungs with nobody even looking up at her. All she wanted was to be free. Tired, she lay down to sleep.
Several days later, Sakura was awoken from her extremely long and rejuvenating sleep by a great shudder. The ship had landed on Namek.
What happened immediately after they landed, Sakura did not know. She was too busy focusing on a fabulous dream she had had. It was a marvellous dream, a dream of escape. Sakura sat bolt upright.
