Hearts Together, Worlds Apart

Chapter 3: A Plan of Action.

So it was that the Z fighters mission could not go incomplete. I must return with them to their world. To do this I must prepare. Ok, so my parents still weren't too thrilled but who's parents would be. They couldn't choose this for me. I was fifteen and I could take care of myself. This wasn't like leaving home. This was a life and death situation for millions.

Today I was going to take my cash card and buy some training clothes and stuff. To get them we would go to Alton and to get there we would take my dad's old "pikey" van, which is in fact an old van my dad had brought which he'd adapted to fit seven people and then left to rust.

Now the only problem was who would drive. Clearly not me as I am a few years short of my drivers licence. The only licence I have is one from Legoland. *shudders*

"Right Piccolo…people would probably be to say the least shocked to see a green person so I guess you're out…Goten and Trunks, you're both too young…Goku…I saw your driving lessons…Gohan you're just as bad…Quillin…hmmm…you've crashed several times because you're easily distracted by girls and Vegeta you crashed once…on purpose…because the person in front was being too slow." I sighed after listing the options. My choices were bad or worse. "Well, there are loads of girls about so Quillin that's a no and well…as long as Goku and Gohan keep an eye on him…Vegeta you can drive." Vegeta sirked as I handed over the keys. Goku and Gohan sat in the front with him, Piccolo, Quillin, Trunks and Goten were in the back and I was sat on the floor at the very back. I winched as I heard the engine start but no crash came. I just hoped Gohan could read the map.

We approached the parking lot near the town centre and a man stood in a booth asking for ticket money. He mumbled a request for money and I handed the money to Goku to give to him but it was too late. Vegeta turned to the man smirked, gave a little wave and drove straight past him. Everyone looked at Vegeta.

"WHAT?!" he snapped. Everyone looked away, suddenly finding the floor of the van very interesting. We all climbed out and I led them to the town centre. I put a large coat with a hood on Piccolo so that people couldn't see his face properly and off we went.

I started in some sports shops and I got some tank tops, some baggy pants, some boots and then we set off to a weaponry shop. I tried out a few weapons and two of them seemed too natural. I was aware that I was too good using a sword and a long warrior pole. They seemed too natural. It was scary but I knew they would be the weapons I should have. I took them to the desk.

"Sorry kid. I can't let you buy these without adult permission." The man at the desk said. I was about to say something when Vegeta butted in.

"She's my kid and if I didn't want her buying these weapons I would have stopped her!" he snapped. I stayed silent. "Do you have a problem with that?"

"N-No of course not I didn't know." The man said quickly ringing up the items and letting my pay for them. Once outside the shop I hugged Vegeta.

"Thank you!" I squealed. Vegeta pushed me off of him.

"I only did it because I'm fed up already." He muttered. "So don't go all mushy on me kid!" I narrowed my eyes up at him from my current position on the floor. Quillin helped me up and we started walking back to the parking lot. I was left to ponder on my thoughts for a while.

This time we had to drive back the other way meaning speed bumps. When Vegeta saw the speed bumps and slow signs, he just went faster. I was beginning to fear the worst. This was a bad idea. Not having a belt, I was all over the place.

"Vegeta the whole point of…whoa!...speed bumps is to…ouch!...stop going fast!" I shouted. I stood and grabbed the back to the row of seats in front of me. I almost went flying forward over the seat into Piccolo's lap.

"Jesse come here." Goten said. He offer me his hand and led me around the row of seats so that I was half sat on the end of the seat with Trunks. They all moved up to give me some room when Goten told them to. `Thank you Chichi for teaching your sons manors!' After the speed bumps the ride was pretty much normal, if you can call being in a van with seven cartoon characters normal that is. Finally we arrived home and climbed out of the van and went into the house again.

"Well, that went well." I said.

"What now?" Quillin asked.

"The relevant saaiyan, Jesse, is to be trained. As she said she can't just leave so we have to train her here…this causes a problem as we should be training in our world." Piccolo said.

"That's easy then we'll just take her with us." Goku said. Everyone sweatdropped.

"Keep up Goku, we just said she can't yet." Piccolo said.

"I have a plan. I'm not as stupid as Kakarrot." Vegeta said. "One of us stay and the rest of us will return."

"That could work!" Quillin said. "But who could we leave. Goku, Vegeta and Gohan have to go back as they need to train and Trunks and Goten should be doing the same. I'd be a useless trainer and Piccolo's well green!"

"Goten and Trunks will stay." Piccolo said. "They're her age and will fit into this world the best. They will stay and the rest of us will leave." We all nodded.

"Sounds like a plan." I agreed.

"I'm hungry." Goku said. We all laughed.

"OK, who wants food?" I asked standing up.
