Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Daughter Of A Warrior ❯ Sakura's Rebellion ( Chapter 3 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]
Chapter Three - Sakura's Rebellion

Around one hour later a very tall and muscular Namek came to Sakura's cell to take her for her training session. She had never seen this particular Namek before, even though she had already fought most of Furiza's squad of Nameks, and this bothered her greatly. All of Furiza's other henchmen and Nameks she had fought during training sessions, and so she knew their individual strategies and weaknesses. She drained the last of an energy drink she had been drinking and followed him from the cell.
They had been walking for about ten minutes when Sakura began to put her plan into action. She slowed down a little so that she was walking about a metre or two behind him. She took about three steps backwards, and delivered a sudden and powerful flying kick to the back of the Namek's neck. She heard the bone snap, and the Namek fell dead to the ground, the keys to the whole of Furiza's ship falling from his hand as his body went limp. Sakura knelt down beside his corpse and took the keys. "Sorry about that," she whispered to his lifeless body, a single tear rolling down her cheek. She stood up and ran back towards the cells.

"Mother! Mother wake up!" Sakura hissed, shaking Ayane, who slowly stirred.

"Sa - Sakura?" Ayane sat bolt upright, staring at her daughter with tears rolling down her face. They were not tears of pain or unhappiness, but tears of joy. This was the first time she had been able to communicate with her daughter in over a year.

"Mother, we have to be quick. We're going to get out of here." Sakura was also crying as she spoke, it had been so long. "I already Dad and Kasubi out, let's go." Ayane then leapt out of bed, gathered a few personal belongings and hurried down the corridor with her family.

"Where exactly are we going?" Ayane asked Sakura after about ten minutes. Her jet-black hair was flowing down to her shoulder blades, occasionally being blown into her face as they passed over-head fans.

"I don't know to be honest, Mother. We can't go back home, Furiza will check there. I think we will go to Earth. Vegeta told me ages ago that a Saiya-jin named Kakarot is said to have been sent there as a baby. Maybe he will help us out."

Kanata and Ayane looked anxiously at each other, unsure as to whether to tell her about Kakarot or not. They decided not to with a single shake of the head from Kanata, not yet. Sakura may have matured more than was expected from a girl her age, but she was still just seven years old, and not ready to find out about Kakarot just yet; they should wait a while.

"Here it is." Sakura announced into the silence. She went to put the key into the lock, when an unfamiliar voice spoke out.

"And just where do you think you're going?" The family spun around to see a Namek standing right behind them, in an advanced fighter's stance. Kanata, Ayane and Kasubi all stepped back, but Sakura stepped forward, and glared at the Namek.

"Home." Sakura said without expression. She also assumed a fighter's stance.

"I doubt that somehow, you Saiya-jin brat!" The Namek snarled, "You are never going to…" He never got to finish his sentence, because before he knew it, Sakura was upon him, attacking him with a series of merciless kicks and punches. After around five minutes, Sakura raised her palms, ready to use a Destructo Disk. She did not know when she had learned that attack. She had just known it all of her life.

"DESTRUCTO DISK!" She yelled, and an orange disk of energy appeared in her hand. She took aim, and threw the Destructo Disk. The Namek was decapitated, and Sakura looked away, once again with a tear trickling down her face. Sakura had been brought up never to take a life, but desperation had forced her to do otherwise.

Sakura swiped the key through the electric lock, and the door opened immediately. The family rushed inside, and found themselves facing a room full of different space pods.

"Great!" Kasubi groaned, rolling her eyes. "None of us know how to work this kind of technology. Er, where is Sakura?" All three Saiya-jins looked around, and saw Sakura walking around the room, looking at the different space pods and small ships.

"Alright," she said aloud from across the room. "We'll need a multi-passenger pod. It really needs to be able to run in automatic so that we can sleep for the journey. Oh yeah, how could I forget, it needs to be fast. We don't want Furiza's friends catching up with us now, do we? Ah, this one should just about do the job."

She had stopped beside a medium sized space pod with a large window covering the whole front. She swiped the key, and the door opened in front of them.

Inside the space pod was actually quite comfortable. There was room inside for up to six people to sit in front of the large window. There was even space inside for them to move around, train and eat. There was also a small bathroom and a tiny little kitchen. Sakura decided that she would use all of the extra space to train for a while before she went to sleep for the majority of the journey. They sat down and prepared to leave. Sakura shut the door and began to move out, and, at last, they were away. None of them noticed a pair of eyes watching them from inside a small closet.

Around twenty minutes had passed since they had left Namek when the intruder showed himself. He crept up behind Sakura, who had just settled down to relax ready for her long sleep, and the next thing she felt was a damp, smelly cloth being held over her face. Her last thought before passing out, was of her family. The next thing she remembered was waking up back in Furiza's Planet 79.
