Well I decided to put a little more out there. I mean how you can know If you like the story from just one chapter so here is chapter two. Once again I own no one but the characters I made up. Enjoy and plz review

 

----------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------

 

Alexis woke up in the oversized, but comfortable bed provided by her hosts. Not that she wanted to wake up but the beam of sunlight shining through the curtains had other ideas. She reached over sleepily for her husband. When she came into contact with the bed sheets she remembered she was alone. A small ping of sadness assaulted her but she pushed it aside. She had a busy day ahead of her. They were meeting two of Bra's close girlfriends Pan and Marron.

Pan happened to be the granddaughter of Mr. Satan so she was actually going to meet the legend. The trip was full of surprises. After collecting the two girls they were meeting Lennex and Trunks at the Satan City Mall. As to not feel out numbered two to one, Lennex and Trunks were picking up Pan's Uncle Goten, She was told that it was the normal clique of friends.

All in all shopping with heirs to the Breifs fortune sounded like a trip she wouldn't want to miss. She rolled out of bed and went to the adjoining bathroom. After brushing her teeth and a quick shower, Alexis felt refreshed and ready to take on the world. As she was putting the finishing touches to her makeup on, a soft knock at the door caught her attention.

“Come in.” she called, putting the last of her blush on and took out her eyeliner.

Bra entered the room wearing a powder blue sundress. Alexis had a hard time believing the girl would look bad in anything she decided to put on.

“Almost ready to go?” Bra asked walking over the window peering outside. “It's a really nice day out, and I'd hate to waste it here at home.”

Alexis nodded her agreement and looked in the mirror one last time to make sure everything was good. She grabbed her purse and pulled some money and identification out of it. She didn't feel like carrying it with her today. Bra shook her head and spoke

“Today's expenses are on me today,” she said pulling out a credit card. This is my main card it has $50,000 on it. Between me, Pan and Marron, we have come close to maxing it but not close enough. We figure with another girl we should be able to do it.” She said with a wink. “Think of it as a personal challenge.” She said walking out the door. Alexis started at her in amazement. “I guess when your rich, your rich.” She said as she put the money back in the purse and followed her friend out. They walked to the kitchen which had an ample breakfast prepared for them. They sat and started eating, Bra looking though a fashion magazine and Alexis going through the newspaper.

“Where are Lennex and your brother?” she asked around a mouthful of egg. Bra peered up from her magazine and responded “They had to run to the main Capsule Corporation Office building in town to clear a few things up for their mini vacation. A lot of things have to be put in order when you're the Vice President and Head of Security of the company.”

Alexis nodded her head. It made sense. They finished their breakfast and put the dishes in the sink. Alexis took out a small pill and swallowed it with the last of her juice. Bra raised a questioning eyebrow.

“I have a small chemical imbalance,” Alexis said, “These pills are supposed to correct it so that some day I will be able to have children.” Bra nodded in understanding. Lennex had told her of his friend's problem. Children was one of the most important things to Alexis he had said. And her not being able to have them was very heartbreaking. Maybe on her stay the Doctors at Capsule Corporation could do something the other doctors she had seen couldn't. Bra gave her a smile as she grabbed her keys and the two girls headed for the door.

“I hope you're prepared for some fun and to spend a lot of money.” Bra said lighting the mood. Alexis just shook her head and closed the door behind her.

 

Lennex watched the two girls get in the car and drive off toward Mr. Satan's residence. He hated making his friends lie to the girl he had told them a lot about, but he still wasn't sure if telling her the truth would be a good idea. Besides it had only been a small lie. They were going to CapCorp, they just hadn't left yet.

“Ready to go?” Trunks asked walking up behind Lennex. They were in Trunks bedroom waiting for the two girls to leave. Lennex nodded as he opened up the glass door leading to the small balcony attached to Trunk's room.

“Ya I am ready, lets go get squared away. I'd hate to lose the business while we were gone.”

Trunks smiled “I doubt Mom would let that happen. She had no trouble running the Corporation without us. Heck I think the only reason she has me around is to do all the paper work.”

After a few seconds to think over the theory Lennex had to admit Trunks was probably right. Anymore Bulma spend most of her time in the lab working on her inventions and tweaking the R&D projects already in motion. Trunks was pretty much a figurehead and a glorified desk jockey.

“I feel lucky that we are able to walk for our vacation. Your father wasn't exactly nice last night.” He said to his purple haired friend. Trunks winced at the thought and put his hand to his lower abdomen. Underneath the silk shirt he was wearing was a bruise the size of a small melon, testament that he understood Lennex's statement all to well.

“I'm just glad he decided to spar with Goku this morning instead of using us as punching bags.” He replied. Trunks walked out to the balcony and shut the door he looked at Lennex who was making a forward gesture. “After you Mr. Vice President.”

Trunks shook his had and blasted off into the blue sky Lennex clearly hearing the smartass remark before he himself took off after his friend.

 

 

Their home, which housed some of the main science labs of Capsule Corporation, was located just outside the city so it was a short drive before they entered the urban area. Bra glanced at her friend out of the corner of her eye smiling to herself. She was looking at everything they were driving by with interest and fascination, the wind tugging at her hair.

Bra had taken her convertible today feeling that the top down, wind through their hair, and sun on there backs was defiantly the way to go. She glanced upwards very briefly and then back at Alexis, whose attention was on the fields to their right. If she were to glance up and look really carefully she'd see something that she had really never seen before she thought with a laugh, feeling her brother and Lennex's Ki as they flew overhead towards the office. She thought of her brother and Lennex again and how the day was supposed to progress. After picking up Goten they would have to drive to the mall otherwise alerting Alexis to something. The girls would be well at the mall before the boys showed up but it might be a little strange if they showed up with no vehicle covering the amount of ground that they would cover today. She hoped Lennex would come clean soon. She didn't like hiding her powers. They were apart of her just as much as they were apart of him and she didn't like hiding who she was.

“Maybe I'll have a talk with him tonight.” She thought out loud. Alexis turned to her

“Talk about what?” she asked

Bra shook her head “Nothing just a little thinking out loud. Are you ready to meet the 25 year World Martial Arts champion?”

Even though fighting wasn't something she really condoned, a chance to meet a living legend was one in a million. She enthusiastically nodded her head. “You bet.” She replied.

“Hopefully we can pick up Pan and Marron and get out of there before we get put to work. That's what those two along with Pan's parents are doing, getting his mansion ready for the birthday party. It's going to be mostly family and close friends but being such a celebrity there are gong to be a few others invited. Fellow celebrities, Journalists that sort of thing”

Alexis wasn't sure if that kind of birthday party would be something she wanted but she figured after living so long in the limelight that Mr. Satan probably didn't know how to live any other way. They pulled up to a gate leading into the mansion. The man at the gate checked his list and admitted the two girls. Bra drove the car up to the large house and was met by her two friends.

“Alexis these are my good friends Pan and Marron.” She said indicating each in turn. Pan was defiantly a tomboy. She wore a pair of faded blue jeans and a simple red t-shirt. Her raven colored hair was tucked neatly into the orange bandana she wore on top of her head a chain led from one of her belt loops to a small wallet in her back pocket. Pan defiantly didn't care for all the glamour and fashion but was by no means unattractive. She held a beauty all her own. Bra had told her that Pan and Trunks were something of an item, although they themselves didn't really know it.

Marron was a bit more like Bra when it came to her looks. She knew she looked good but didn't seem to care about it as much as most normal young ladies did. She wore a simple pair of khaki pants with a white button down shirt. Her long blond hair fell loosely around her shoulders and makeup accented her face. She had a serious look on her face, one that Bra said she inherited from her mother.

“Nice to meet you Alexis.” Pan said as she hopped in the back seat Marron Nodded her agreement and got in also. The four looked up to see a middle aged couple exit the house and everyone waved to them, save Alexis.

“Who are they?” she asked as Bra started back down the driveway towards the main street.

“Those are my Parents,” Pan said leaning forward from the backseat. “My Father's name is Gohan, and my mother's is Videl. I'll introduce them to you properly later tonight. Were supposed to meet everyone back here, Grandpa wants to have the family party separate from the one filled with paparazzi.” She looked over at Bra. “He figured that your family wouldn't mind seeing as CapCorp is always in the tabloids for some thing or another.”

Bra silently agreed with her friend. The stories those tabloid people came up with were outrages, and sometimes closer to the truth then anyone cared to admit. After another 15 minutes of driving and small talk the four girls finally arrived at the Satan City Mall.

“This place could fit five of the mall we have back home in it.” Alexis said to the others. They laughed lightly and exited the car. Bra put the top up and locked the doors. She glanced at her three friends and grinned. “Ready to spend some money ladies?”

With that they entered the mall. As they went through the doors they passed a group of older teenagers. They gave them a small glance but continued into the mall. The only thing really catching their eye was that each of them wore a beanie pulled down to their eyes. There where six in all but the girls didn't give them a second glance. The boys looked at each other and four of them started in after the girls leaving the last two outside the main entrance, waiting….

 

 

 

 

 

 

After almost two hours of shopping Alexis thought she was in heaven. She had almost a dozen new dresses, some casual some very fancy and formal. She sported an equal number of both new pants and new shirts, a new selection of undergarments, and a couple very risqué pieces of Lingerie that Bra assured her, would make her husband very happy. As they sat down in the food court they she finally realized that the rest of their group had yet to show and voiced her concern.

“Most likely Goten was still asleep when they arrived.” Pan stated. She knew her uncle was very lazy, especially on the weekends. Bra voiced an agreement but went to call her brother's cell phone just to make sure. Alexis would have put a bit more thought into it until Marron pointed out a shoe store that had yet to be looked at.

“No outfit is complete without the right pair of shoes.” Marron said walking towards the store. Alexis readily agreed following the blond girl

 

 

 

 

“We're on our way now,” Trunks said into the phone. He, Goten and Lennex were on their way to the mall when his cell phone went off. Apparently their company was missed.

“Dad and Goku decided to see if we were really slacking off so it was three vs. two us against them.” There was a slight pause as he let his sister talk

“We kindly asked that they not mark up our faces because of Alexis. They agreed but the rest of our bodies are paying for it.” After the statement he glanced at his two friends. Lennex sat in the passenger seat reclined slightly, the back of his head flush against the headrest. A hand lightly rubbing his stomach. Goku scored a mean hit there putting Lennex out of the spar for good. Trunks had to actually turn around to see Goten who was curled in the fetal position in the back seat. Goten received a simultaneous assault from both Vegeta and Goku. Not a happy combination. He himself came off with a few bumps and bruises adding to his previous night's injury.

“Ya tell the others we should be there within twenty minuets. Tell them the office kept us longer then expected.” He took another quick glance in the back seat. “Tell them Goten was still asleep too.” Trunks laughed when Bra told him that's what they had thought.

“See ya soon Sis.” He hung up the phone and looked at his two friends again. After the mall a trip to Korin Tower might be in order he thought. If out fathers continue the way they are going we are going to need a steady supply of Senzu beans. His face brightened as he saw the large sign that singled they were close to their destination.

Miles outside Satan City, in the dense forest, a small waterfall ran the course it had run for the last couple centuries. The only companion the waterfall had was deep in meditation at the moment. He sat Indian style with is arms crossed over his chest. He wore a simple purple dogi and completing the outfit was a white shoulder padded cape and white turban. The latter two adding almost half a ton of weight to the individual. He wore it like they were made out of feathers. The only other odd thing about the waterfalls companion was the color of his skin, which almost matched the trees around him. The waterfalls companion was a Namek, and alien race from outside the solar system.

This particular Namek had called Earth his home for almost seventy years now, once bent on ruling the world or destroying it for his own pleasure now kept a watchful eye to keep his planet safe. Unlike the waterfall, Piccolo had changed a great deal in his life. Now his daily meditation, something he did to clear his mind and get in tune with the planet brought something to his attention. Nothing specific but a bad feeling. He might have just dismissed it, but learned from experience to trust his feelings. The part of him that was Kami was screaming out that something was wrong. But what?

A flash of anger and of power broke the trance that Piccolo was in. He opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Satan City. Something was happening. He decided to get back to the Lookout were the current Guardian of Earth, a fellow Namek named Dende, to see if he had picked up on this feeling as well. Without so much as a goodbye to the waterfall Piccolo shot off through the air causing a minor sonic boom with his speed.

 

 

The four girls walked out of the shoe store caring two new bags a piece. Alexis couldn't remember when she had had this much fun. Her new friends treated her like she had always been part of the group and she herself found it easy to talk with them. “Now if only Lennex would get here I'd feel content.” she thought.

Pan walked over to a drink stand. She stood in line behind one of the teens they had passed coming into the mall. He turned to her and gave her a small smile. Pan nodded to him, recognizing him as one of the boys in her high school Karate team. Pan sighed. She was the youngster of the group. Still in High school although it was her last year, she couldn't wait to get out into the world. Bra was only three years her senior, but Marron almost had a full seven years. The only reason they were friends at all was due to their families history to that she was thankful.

That's when it happened. The boy in front of her whipped around this time with an evil smirk on his face and backhanded her in the face, sending her flying along with her shopping bags across the hallway and through the glass of one of the mall shops. the trip was almost thrity feet. Even unprepared and her guard down, no normal human should have been able to do that to her. She sat up and rubbed her cheek and look fircely back at the teen. She was surprised to find him almost on top of her readying for another strike.

Bra and Marron felt it before they saw it. An unidentifiable Ki spiked and then they saw Pan soar through the air and though the glass windows of a store.

“Alexis, watch our bags were going to go see what's going on.” Bra said dumping the bags at her new friend's feet and along with Marron headed in Pan's direction.

“Ok….” Alexis said she was a bit scared at seeing Pan fly through the air but her other friends didn't look to worried. She figured she would just wait right were she was as her friends asked. Bra and Marron quickened their pace as they saw Pan's assailant ready to strike and were about to intervene when two more of the boys they had seen out front attacked them. They appeared right in front of them wearing the identical beanie that Pan's attacker wore.

The one in front of Marron dove into her, knocking the surprised girl off her feet and sending them both skidding along the floor. Bra's attention was riveted back to her opponent as he put his hands together and a ball of energy formed between his palms. Bra's eyes widened in amazement as the KI attack shot forth and nailed her. She was thrown back herself and skidded along the mall floor, coming to a stop on her stomach.

She looked up and saw her boy walking towards her. “Sorry Lennex, looks like our secret is going to be spilled whether you like it or not.” She rose from the floor and powered herself up, bringing her energy to her opponents level and then slightly beyond. He was no match for her. None of them were a match for any of the girls. Their only hindrance was not hurting the innocent bystanders. Those patrons who hadn't run when the first blow was thrown. She saw Pan and Marron come to the same conclusion as they raised their power levels. “Hurry up guys.” Bra muttered as she took a defensive stance. She stretched her arm out in front of her and waved to the boy, inviting him to attack.

 

_________________________________________________________________ _______

 

They were just parking the car when they felt three unknown power levels. The boys looked at each other in shock. The energy they felt was no threat to them but still high enough that they should have known someone was training like they were. They started for the mall entrance in a hurry but found two teenagers blocking their way.

“Move!” Lennex said as he walked up to them. The two teens looked at each other and launched a quick attack both kicking out and hitting Lennex in the chest throwing him backwards he slammed into a parked Van. To the vans credit it started to tip due to the impact but came back down on all four tires. However there was a Lennex shaped imprint now in the side. Trunks and Goten were stunned. They were more powerful then they thought, and after a sparring round with both their fathers, there energy was a bit depleted. Lennex picked himself up and powered up.
”Take them down fast, we have to get inside!” he shouted. The two teens leapt into the air and started firing at random. Aiming for the mall itself, parked cars, and people who were trying to get to cover.

“Shit.” was all Lennex could think as he raced for a couple who stood frozen in fear as a piece of the wall was blown away and the derbies falling towards them. Lennex grabbed both of them and got them out of the way just in time. He saw Trunks and Goten engage the two stopping the reckless attacks. Lennex surveyed the damage and flew up to join his friends in putting the two down.

 

_________________________________________________________________ ____

 

“This is nuts!” Alexis thought as she peeked over the bench she was hiding behind. These three boys were flying through the air and shooting energy beams out of their hands. But to top it off, her three new friends were mimicking these actions like it was nothing out of the ordinary. It was like she was in some type of comic book. She sighed in relief as she saw Pan get the best of her opponent. Viciously upper cutting him, sending him is flying upwards. Before he hit the ceiling, Pan used her greater speed and flew past him, turned around and hit him again slamming him back to the ground. To Alexis' eyes it looked as though Pan just disappeared from the ground and reappeared in the air. When she saw her guy not getting up she flew towards Marron and her fight. The boy must have felt her because he turned towards her. Too late.

Pan roundhouse kicked the boy right in the face spinning him around to face Marron once again. Marron, as if following a scripted action sequence, round house kicked the boy also spinning him full circle back to Pan. Pan watched as his eyes rolled in the back of his head and he collapsed. Alexis turned to Bra's fight to find that Bra already ended the match. The boy lay in front of her as she rested her foot on his chest. She gave a V sign to her friends. Pan and Marron shook their heads in amusement. Suddenly all eyes were on Alexis and they weren't looks of joy or victory, but of shock and horror. Alexis didn't understand why she was the new focus of attention. Then she felt it. A piercing sensation in her back and then she felt something pass through her body flying out the front. It was almost like she wasn't in her own body anymore as she looked down she saw the front of her chest explode. She knew it had to hurt, but no feeling came. She was numb. Not feeling anything she looked back up at her friends who were still staring in shock. Her new found friends slipped from her view, replaced by the ceiling of the mall. She tried to relocate them but the lingering sense of detachment prevented any notion of movement. The view or the ceiling was quickly replaced with a curtain of black, her eyes falling closed for the last time.

_________________________________________________________________ ______

 

“NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!” an angry shout filled the air. Bra couldn't believe it. She saw her brother, Goten, and Lennex come running up the hall carrying two more of the boys they had first seen, but the sixth had appeared right behind Alexis firing an energy blast right through her.

The yell issued from Lennex's mouth and before anyone had time to blink, Lennex went Super-Sayjin, his hair standing straight on end and going from jet black to bleach blond. His eye turned also from the color black to a chilling turquoise blue. An aura of golden energy surrounded his body as his power increased by a factor of ten. There was a reason why the Super-Sayjin was feared throughout the galaxy, the young teen with that same beanie didn't have time to react or even to think.

He saw the transformation and then the sayjin was in front of him. Mimicking his earlier move and firing an energy blast point blank range. Unlike the teens move however, Lennex's Energy blast enveloped his entire body, incinerating it in the blink of an eye. It was over in about ten seconds. Lennex dropped out of the super sayjin form and hurried over to Alexis. He cradled the girl in his arms, head bowed, knowing she was already dead. Gone before she even knew the truth. He felt Bra's hand on his shoulder and leaned into the small embrace. The only thought in his head was, “What am I going to tell her husband?”

 

 

 

Surprisingly the only casualty in the fight was Alexis. The group had kept the fight contained and ended it swiftly enough. A quick call to Bulma brought Capsule Corp onto the scene for damage control. Lennex carried Alexis' body back to the main compound of CapCorp were they lived. Bulma had wanted to take the bodies of the attackers along with to find out how ordinary students developed the kind of power it took to do what they did.

According to Pan, each one was part of Orange Star High School's Karate team. Due to a few quick calls on the way home the rest of their families were notified and waiting for them. Pan went to stand next to Gohan and Videl while Goten stood by his parents, Chi-Chi and Goku. Marron walked over to her parents, Krillin and 18, while Bra and Trunks Remained by their Mother. Vegeta stood in the corner, surveying the scene.

Lennex carried the body down to the infirmary while the rest filled them in. The bodies would be unloaded from the Capsule Corp Truck that had followed them home and then Bulma would begin her tests. Lennex walked back out and looked at Bulma.

“I want the Dragon Radar.” He said. The tone of voice left no room for argument, but Bulma had already anticipated the request. Hell she thought of it herself as soon as she heard what happened.

“Sure thing and this gives me a chance to try out a new invention.” She motioned the group to follow her to her lab. Lennex really didn't want to wait while she explained but let it slide for now.

“In the past when we have needed the Dragon balls in a hurry we have always had to find them one at a time, taking longer then the amount of time we actually had,” she started coming up a large flat panel screen built into the wall. Underneath the screen was a small bank of controls. We have always had enough people to search for the dragon balls without vehicle aid, seeing as ninety percent of us here can fly under their own power.”

The group nodded in agreement as Bulma turned the screen on. What filled the screen was familiar to most. It was a grid layout of the entire world with seven glowing dots, each representing a Dragon ball. A large scale version of the dragon radar.

“This device is like the hand held dragon radar. It locates each one and beams one dragon ball location to each of these devices,” she continued pointing to seven PDA sized devices. “All we need is seven volunteers and each person gets one Dragon ball, cutting down the collection time greatly.” She finished with that I am a genius smile on her face. The rest of the group was impressed to say the least. Lennex walked forward and grabbed one of the trackers and started out the door. Trunks grabbed another of the locators and he and Goten followed Lennex to go search. Pan and her parents grabbed one mini radar as did Marron and her parents, four down, three to go. Goku grabbed a device handing it to Chichi. He briefly glanced at the small map on the device and visualized the general location, grabbing Chichi around the waist. He put two fingers of his other hand up to his forehead and concentrated, in a few short seconds the two disappeared, traveling faster then the speed of light to the location in Goku's mind. Bra Grabbed another Mini tracker and sped quickly out the door. Leaving one device left.

Bulma glanced over at her husband who stood leaning up against the wall, arms crossed and a bored look on his face. Bulma put her hands on her hips glaring at Vegeta, her foot tapping in annoyance. Vegeta glared back and pushed of the wall, grabbing the last tracker and walked out the door. Bulma heard a distinct mummer under his breath, something about bossy women. She smiled and sat down in front of the main screen. The mini trackers showed the positions of each group. She would be able to tell when the Dragon balls were collected. Hopefully, Lennex's friend wouldn't be dead for long.

 

Bulma's calculations were correct and the group had returned just as dusk was approaching. Vegeta left his Dragon ball with the others and went to find Bulma, who was running the tests on the young teenagers. The set the seven orange orbs on the ground and Goku, the one with the most experience with the Dragon balls stepped forward.

“By your name come forth and grant out wishes, SHENRON!” He shouted. The sky, while darkening as the sun set instantly went black. The seven orbs glowed and pulsated in time with each other. Suddenly and large bolt of energy shot forth from the balls into the sky looping and swirling. The light grew in intensity to were all had to look away. When the light died Shenron, the eternal dragon, hovered over them. The group looked up in awe.

“You have summoned me here and I will grant you two wishes.” The dragon boomed “Name you wishes now!”

Lennex stepped forward only interested in using one wish.

 

 

Bulma had a few nurses getting prepped as she was setting up the equipment to scan the bodies. The nursed were removing the clothes of the boys. The nurses looked at each other as they studied the bodies.

“Mrs. Briefs, are you sure this isn't gang related?” one of them asked her. Bulma looked up as Vegeta entered and gave him a small nod turning back to her assistants.

“I think belonging to the Karate team of a local High School doesn't qualify as gang status. Why do you ask?” she replied. The nurses looked at each boy and then back to Bulma

“Well each of them has a matching tattoo on their forehead. Bulma looked up in interest as she walked over to the bodies, Vegeta trailing her silently. She looked at the boys and gasped. What the beanies each of them wore had hidden was now in plain sight. And it was something she knew very well. She heard Vegeta growl lowly as he also recognizing the symbol, for he had worn it on his brow for a short time when under the control of a long dead enemy. It was a black letter M, the sign of the evil wizard Babidi. It was the Sign of the Majin.

 

“I cannot grant your wish.” The dragon boomed.

 

Lennex looked up at the giant dragon in disbelief. He had just asked the dragon to resurrect his friend and Shenron had refused. Goku stepped forward “Shenron, why won't you bring this girl back?” he demanded. The others looked at Goku like he was crazy. No one would ever think to speak to this powerful being that way, but Goku was never afraid of anything. Shenron answered the question however.

“As you know my powers are based of that of the Guardian of Earth, only extremely more powerful. When a person dies their sprit is sent to the otherworld for judgment. Because the Guardian can keep track of these souls as they pass into the beyond I am able to search both the otherworld, Heaven and Hell for the souls. No soul has passed for the person you have requested be brought back to life.”

“How can that be?!” Lennex shouted angrily. “You're saying she isn't dead but her body is in the morgue with a hole the size of a baseball through her chest.” Bra walked up to Lennex putting her arms around him trying to calm him down. Shenron spoke again.

“I didn't say I knew if she was dead or not. I simply said there is no soul in the otherworld.”

Further questions would have been asked but the arrival of Piccolo silenced them before they could be asked.

“We need to Talk.” He said simply. Before queries could be made to the tall Namek Bulma burst out of the door with Vegeta right behind her. “You guys are never going to believe this.” She said.

The group looked at both Bulma and Piccolo. Krillin put the thought everyone had into words first. “I have a very bad feeling about this.”

 

Alexis opened her eyes but with the lack of light in…wherever she was, was so poor that she couldn't make out anything. She could barely move. Nothing in her body wanted to function.

“We have her.” A voice in the darkness said.

“Good. Now our plan can truly begin.” Another answered. She tried to see who was speaking but suddenly felt an immense jolt of pain run through her body. She would have screamed but the pain rendered her unconscious before a sound escaped her throat.

 

A/N Ohh a cliffhanger……As much as I hate them when I read a story it is fun to get the creative juice flowing of the readers. What happed to Alexis soul? Why couldn't the dragon bring her back? And what news does Piccolo bring? Find out in the next chapter as some of these question are answers. As always Reviews are most welcomed.

Well that's all for now. See ya next chapter.
