Freak show
Part One
By Maria Cline

Her head hurt as she slowly opened her eyes. She moaned softly as she tried to use her arms to lift herself up only to realize that her hands were clamped behind her. "Huh?" Chi Chi gasped as she looked around frantically. "Where am I?"

"Chi Chi, you're finally awake." Goku's voice reached her.

Chi Chi turned her head to see Goku sitting on the other side of the gray room. He was in a bright red and black metal straitjacket and a pair of pants that seemed to match the jacket. On his head was a strange helmet that had glowing buttons. "Goku?" Chi Chi whispered as she stumbled to her feet and made her way to her husband. She knelt down and asked, "What happened?"

Goku blinked and replied, "We were captured. Don't you remember?"

Chi Chi bit her lip as memories suddenly came to her. Goku and Chi Chi were relaxing at a small deserted planet when they were ambushed. She gasped as she looked around again. "No... no! I can't believe this!!! The others... do they know?"

Goku shook his head. "I don't know... I can't talk to King Kai or anyone else with this helmet on... I don't even know if Gohan and the others are even aware that we were captured."

Tears came down Chi Chi's face as she put her head on Goku's binded chest. "Oh Goku... why?! Why must this happen to us?!"

Goku nudged himself down and rubbed his cheek against hers to wipe away the tears. "It's okay... Chi Chi. Don't cry... we'll get through this. We're still alive and so there's still hope."

Chi Chi coughed slightly as she lifted herself up. "I'm scared. Gohan... Goten... Bulma... they don't know what happened to us!"

"But we don't know that." Goku said as he tried to grin optimistically. "They may be planning to rescue us right now."

"But... what if they're not?" Chi Chi whispered with fear in her voice and eyes.

Goku tilted his head up and kissed her on the lips. Chi Chi sighed as she kissed back. It was the only thing they could do together. Their hands were bounded and Goku couldn't move his legs. After the long and painful kiss, they pulled apart and Goku said, "Then, we'll get through together."

"I... I... oh Goku..." Chi Chi whispered as she lay her head on Goku's shoulder.

"We will get through this. I promise." Goku vowed as he leaned back and watched his wife rest on his chest. "I promise." Goku whispered as a single tear trickled down his cheek.

It was a long painful sleep for the two. Chi Chi moaned as she slowly got up.

"Did you two have a nice rest?" A man asked. Chi Chi and Goku looked up to see a tall bald lavendar-colored man wearing a long black jumpsuit.

"Who are you?" Chi Chi demanded as she jumped up and marched to him.

The man reached up and put his hand under Chi Chi's chin and examined her. "Such courage and spirit. You have great power potential within you and so do you, of course." He said as he smirked at Goku.

"Who are you?" Chi Chi asked again, "What do you want?"

"Your body." He said as he caressed her face again. "Quite attractive, could use some improvement... but very possible."

Chi Chi snarled as she twisted her head and tried to bite his fingers. The man dodged the 'attack' and shook his head. "Very feisty. Be nice and I might be easy on you two."

"Keep your hands off of my wife!" Goku ordered as he sat up and glared at him.

"I don't intend to use her body like _that_." The mysterious man said as he shoved Chi Chi to the side and put his hands on the sides of Goku's head. "You are the strongest man I have ever encountered. I lost thousands of precious droids trying to capture you and those restraints had to be custom made just to contain your power."

"I'm flattered." Goku said sarcastically as his eyes kept on flashing from black to green and black again.

"Very powerful." The man commented as he let go and walked to the door. "Oh yes, you two will do nicely." He smirked as he walked out of the door. It closed and the two sighed in relief.

"Damn that man!" Chi Chi snarled as she got up and kicked at the door. "What does he want with us?"

Before Goku could even think of an answer green gas filled the room and the two blacked out.

*****

"This is getting old." Chi Chi muttered as she woke up to find her restraints gone. She was dressed in a gold bra with a long loincloth with long fingerless gloves and a tiara on her head and a tight collar around her neck. "What happened?" She wondered as she looked around to see that she was in a plush red room with soft sofas, a huge bed, and a bunch of soft pillows.

"Well well... *purr* looks like I finally got a roomie." A voice whispered from the shadows. A tall woman came out dressed in an outfit similiar to hers, only it was silver. She had long light brown hair with short-haired fur that was striped like a tiger. Behind her waved a long tail that could hypnotized anyone. Around her neck was a silver collar and over her right eye was a tattoo shaped like a cresent moon.

"Who are you?" Chi Chi asked as she got up, "And where's Goku?"

"Goku?" The feline woman asked in a purring voice. "He's probably with the other men. I'm Neko, the last Kitriki."

"I'm Chi Chi." Chi Chi said as she started to look around. "Where's the door?"

"It's all around us." Neko said as she gestured toward the walls. "The Master can come in any where he wish."

"Who's this 'Master'?" Chi Chi asked as she pulled a blanket around her shoulders.

"I am..." A deep voice whispered as the mysterious lavender man who visited her before walked through a wall. "I am Master Bardumn but you may call me 'Master'. You and your mate are part of my little act."

"Where's Goku?" Chi Chi screamed as she came up and rose her fist. Suddenly intense pain wracked her body in huge waves, it was like every inch of her body inside and out was attacked at once. She landed on the floor and shivered.

"Obedience collars. Every time you try to harm me, either directly or indirectly, you get shocked. Everyone wears one... keeps them in line. Don't worry, after the first few times, you won't dare to even think about injuring me." Bardumn said as he smiled. "Oh, and your mate is being treated right now. He's powerful. Very powerful, but there is such thing as too much power."

Chi Chi crossed her arms as she glared at him. Her very body was numb. "If you hurt him..." She whispered as tears came down her face.

"He's not being hurt. He's being modified." Bardumn said, "I'll let you two see each other after the makeover. Neko, my kitten, make sure our latest arrival knows the rules." Bardumn reached over and gently stroked the woman's furry skin.

"I won't fail you, Master." Neko purred.

"I know you won't." Bardumn smiled evilly at Chi Chi and walked into the wall again.

"No..." Chi Chi moaned as she leaned back at the ceiling to see a group of mirrors. The reflection was showed herself in her outfit with a moon over her right eye like Neko's. "What have he done to me?"

"Don't worry. It may be shocking at first but once you get used to it..." Neko purred as she lay on the sofa and relaxed. "It's... purrfect."

"I'd rather hang myself." Chi Chi muttered. She stared in front of her at the plush surroundings. Everything did look nice and fancy but it looked more like a showcase than a home. "Home. I wonder how Earth is now." Chi Chi muttered as she felt feeling enter her body again.

"Earth?" Neko repeated. "Forget about it. The sooner you forget the better you and your mate will be."

Chi Chi glared at the feline female. "No! I won't get used to this... this guilded cage! Goku and I will get out of here! We have to!"

Neko sighed as she flipped onto her stomach. "The first few months will be the hardest." She sighed as she folded her hands under her chin. "Trust me, you'll love it. Especially after he gives you the full treatment."

"Full treatment?" Chi Chi repeated as she paled.

"A makeover of sorts. Make you more... *purrsasive* to the male audience." Neko sighed as she smiled seductively. "Oh, I'm so hungry." She went up to a small table and rang the bell. "The master treats us well here. We can eat whatever we want whenever we want."

"I'm not hungry." Chi Chi insisted as she crossed her arms.

"Fine." Neko looked over to see a robot standing there. He was humanoid with a butler suit painted on.

"Your usual, madam?" It asked in an artifical voice.

"Yes, please." Neko said.

The robot vanished through the wall and returned with a silver dish. "Here is your meal, madam."

Neko purred as she opened the bowl to reveal a vast assortment of sushi. "Romulan sushi bites. My favorite." She said as she plopped one into her mouth and licked her lips. "Mmmm... *purr*fect as usual, Bently."

"I am created to serve you." Bently said as he bowed and walked out.

Chi Chi stared at the plate. She was starving. She hadn't eaten anything since she was captured who knows how long ago, but she couldn't bow to the master's wishes. She lay down on the bed and felt tears came down her face. Never in her life, had she felt so helpless. She's stranded somewhere in space, captured by some demented alien who has her as some exibit, Goku was also captured and she was with some strange feline cat.

"Why don't you eat something?" Neko asked, sounding like she cared. "The master won't like it if you are too thin."

"No." Chi Chi said as she held her stomach. "I can't." Her stomach rumbled as she stared at the food.

"Madam, I had something for you." Bently said as he rolled in with a plate of hot soup and water. "A little something to ease your stomach. You have not eaten in three of your days."

"Three days?!" Chi Chi exclaimed, "I..."

"Eat up. Trust me, you'll feel a lot better after you eat." Neko said as she handed the woman the bowl and spoon.

Chi Chi stared at the food. She had to eat. Goku may need her to be strong and she couldn't be strong if she's starving to death. She drank down the soup and water in a few gulps. She sighed in relief as her stomach bulged slightly and she lay back down again.

"Better." Neko whispered as the woman fell back to sleep. "Don't worry... when you wake up, you will feel like a new woman."

*****

She was drowning. Chi Chi flung herself around hoping for some way to find the surface and air. **Let me out!** She thought frantically as she looked up and saw a familiar arm reach out toward her.

**Chi Chi!** Goku's voice whispered in her mind.

**Goku!** Chi Chi grabbed the arm tightly and slowly rose to the surface. Suddenly, giant clawed hand appeared from the depths and clutched on to her body. **No!** She screamed as she lose her grip on her husband's hand and she was dragged down to the ocean's depths.

Chi Chi sat up and breathed heavilly. She was in the velvet prison with Neko curled up on one of the huge beds. "It was just a dream." Chi Chi sighed in relief as she lay back down. It was a horrible dream though.

She took off the blanket and glanced at her bare arms. She screamed in shock as she felt her skin. It had turned a light shade of blue. "I'm blue!" She wailed as she stared into the mirror again. Her entire body was now light blue, but everything else seemed the same.

"Oh..." Neko moaned as she opened her eyes and glanced at Chi Chi. "Well well... it started fast for you." She said as her tail flickered back and forth in amusement.

"What started?!" Chi Chi demanded as she felt her hair.

"The makeover of course." Neko purred as she smiled with her fangs showing. "You and your mate are going to become more like us every day."

"My kitten is right." The Master said as he came in the room beaming. "You are showing signs of transformation already. I would say a few more days and you will be ready for your own room. Your mate progressed a great deal faster than you. His Saiyan metabolism worked in our favor. In fact, I'm going to let him keep his Saiyan name. Kakarot sounds more... Saiyan than 'Goku'. I'll think of a name for you after you've transformed more."

Chi Chi glared at him. "I'll keep my name, thank you very much! What did you do to Goku?!" Chi Chi demanded as she fought every urge to kill the mysterious man.

"Right here." The man pressed on a button on his watch. "Bring him in." He said.

A pair of robots entered with a figure in chains. He was huge, with red fur covering his arms and chest. His jaw stuck out with giant fangs. His eyes were red-lined with red pupils. He was dressed only in a dark tunic. He gazed at Chi Chi and whispered, "Chi Chi?"

Chi Chi's heart froze in her chest as she stepped forward and gently placed her hand on the only bare spot on his chest. "Goku. My Goku, are you okay?"

Goku nodded slowly as he gently placed his huge hands on her small hand. He grunted as he looked down. "Goku fine."

"Goku fine?" Chi Chi repeated as she glared at the Master. "What did you do to him?!"

"I simply made him more presentable. Don't worry, you will look wonderful after you fully transform." The Master said as he gazed at his 'masterpiece'.

Chi Chi felt her body tensing in pure anger. It was enough that this demented alien had captured her and started to mutate her into who knows what, but now this monster had turned Goku into a neanderthal! "You bastard!" Chi Chi screamed as she lunged at the alien. Jolts of pain wracked through her body as she fell to the floor.

Goku immediately knelt down and held her. "No fight Chi Chi. Fight with collar on, bad."

"I noticed." Chi Chi moaned as she glared at the Master. She couldn't attack the man. If she did she would be killed by her own attempts. Right now she must focus on something that mattered more. "Goku, can you understand me?"

"Goku understand but Goku talk funny." Goku grunted as tears filled his eyes. "Pain. Hurt. Did bad man hurt Chi Chi?"

"No." Chi Chi smiled slightly as she wrapped her arms around Goku's huge chest. "I'm fine... except that I'm blue and will change like you did."

"Goku sorry. Goku hungry and Goku eat all food. Goku became this way... Goku sorry." Goku explained sadly.

Chi Chi smiled as she put her hand on Goku's face. "It's okay. I was hungry too... I still love you no matter what you look like." Her heart ached at the sight. Goku was still Goku, but he was now trapped in a body of a brute that could barely speak.

Goku smiled slightly as he put his hands on Chi Chi's shoulders. "Goku love Chi Chi. Goku make sure everything be fine."

"I know." Chi Chi sighed as she held him.

"We must be leaving. We have to pepare for the show in a couple of weeks." The Master smirked evilly, "You still have to tranform and I have to train Kakarotto here for the act."

"What show?" Chi Chi asked as Goku growled at the Master.

"Didn't you know? You two are my latest attractions... the last Saiyan to exist and his beautiful mate." Master sighed, "A bit of tinkering here and there and you are going to be wonderful additions to my gallery. Come, Kakarot, we have work to do." He gestured to the robots and they tugged at Goku's chains.

Goku stared longingly at Chi Chi with his sad red eyes.

"Don't worry, Goku. I'll be fine." Chi Chi whispered as she put her hand on Goku's hairy arm. "Be strong for me."

Goku nodded. "Goku will. Goku promise." He smiled hesitantly over his shoulder as he and the others walked out of the room.

Chi Chi watched her lover vanish into the wall and then collapsed onto the bed, weeping.
