Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Lost ❯ Training ( Chapter 5 )
Chapter 5………..
I awoke to the sound of my door opening. I opened my eyes, squinting from the bright light the room created. A tall slightly muscular woman entered the room.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"I'm Vasha. I'm here to help you learn your way around the ship today."
I got out of bed, rubbing the last bit of sleep from my eyes.
"Lord Turlus is expecting you," said Vasha, "You will have breakfast and then a training lesson."
"A `training lesson'," I asked confused.
"Yes, you were a very good fighter, before the attack two days ago. Lord Turlus wishes to see if you remember any fighting techniques."
"Oh," I went over to my closet with Vasha following close behind.
"What should I wear?" I asked Vasha.
"You will need an appropriate training outfit."
I looked at Vasha slightly confused, "Umm…what is an appropriate training outfit?"
"Well, I guess I'll pick something out for you," said Vasha as she began to rummage through a rack of shirts. I just stood there, trusting in Vasha's judgment better than my own in this case.
"Here," said Vasha as she handed me a pair of spandex shorts and a loose shirt. I was going to get dressed, but I noticed that Vasha was still in the room.
"Uh, I can't change while you are still in here," I said.
"What's the big deal?" Asked Vasha.
I bit down on my lower lip, slightly uncomfortable with the situation "Well, I don't like it when people see me change."
"Oh, all right. I just didn't really think it was big deal," with that Vasha walked out of the closet closing the door behind her. I quickly changed and came out.
"Yes, that will do just fine," said Vasha with satisfaction, "You just go and get freshened up and I'll take you to the dining hall."
I looked around my room feeling slightly foolish, "Ummm….could you tell me where the bathroom is?"
Vasha gave me a perplexed look, "You mean you don't know where it is?"
"No……I just….well because of my amnesia it seems to me that last night was the first night I was here……..I haven't been able to really look around my room just yet."
"Oh," said Vasha understandingly, "well, you see the hallway to your left?"
"Ya."
"Just go down that hallway and the first door to your left is the bathroom."
"Thanks, but how do you know my room so well?"
"When you were to tired from a training lesson sometimes, you had me take care of you room. You know the cleaning and the organizing."
"Oh."
I went over to the bathroom. After I was done brushing my teeth and everything, I followed Vasha to the dining hall. We entered an elaborate room that had a gigantic table in the middle. At one end of the table was Turlus. Vasha escorted me to a chair that was to the right of Turlus. I sat down and saw Vasha was about to leave. I was about to protest when Turlus cut me off, "Vasha will come back later. You should get something in your stomach before we start training."
"Your suppose to eat before you train?"
"Yes, you will find that it gives you more energy if you do," answered Turlus.
With that we started eating, both of us being silent the whole time.
"That was very good," I commented once I was done, hoping to break the awkward silence that had occupied the meal.
"Thank you. I have the best chiefs. Shall we go and train, now?"
"Ok, but the plates……"
Turlus cut me off, "Don't worry about them. I'll get someone to clean this up."
I watched as Turlus pushed a button on his arm rest and within seconds a man appeared and came over to us.
"Cantar clean this up for us."
"Yes, my lord," said Cantar as we got up from our chairs. I followed Turlus out of the room and down a few corridors till he stopped before a door with the numbers 113 above it.
"Here we are," said Turlus.
He pushed a few buttons next to the door before it opened. Inside was a vast white room. We went inside, the doors closing behind us. Turlus went over to a control console that was to our right.
"This computer changes the gravity of the room. We will start with 20x normal gravity, ok?"
I nodded in reply. He pushed in a few buttons before I heard this strange noise echo into the room. Suddenly, I felt this great pressure and I fell flat on me face. I could hear Turlus laughing at me.
"Hey! This is not funny!"
"Sorry," Said Turlus, "try to get up now."
I managed to stand up, but my body still felt really heavy. I watched Turlus walk away from the console and then shot a ki bast at it. I watched as it spread over the console encasing it in some sort of force field thing.
"What did you just do?"
"I placed a force field around the console, so that it won't get damaged during our training session. Can you fly?" Asked Turlus
"Ummmm…fly?"
Turlus shook his head in dismay, "Just place your energy underneath you and propel yourself up."
"Energy?"
"You don't even remember what that is?"
I looked down, "No, sorry."
"It's okay we will just have to start from the beginning."
After about an hour I was able to fly around pretty easily, everything I was doing seemed so familiar.
"Ok, you now know how to fly, but do you still know how to form a ki blast?"
I shook my head.
"All right, well it's quite simple. Just focus your energy into a ball in either hand."
I concentrated and suddenly I saw a light appear in my hand. After it grew, to what I guessed to be the right size, I threw it into the distance. Suddenly a word came to mind. //KAMEHAMEHA??// I cupped my hands behind me in an open clam shape, "Ka….me….ha…me…" I could feel my energy building up in my hand, "HA!!" I yelled as I threw the ki blast into the wall. Once the dust had cleared, I noticed that the wall had been damaged by the ki blast a little bit. //Oh, no! Turlus is gonna be mad at me now// I turned to Turlus, expecting to see him mad, but instead he was smiling.
"Very good, you remember one of your old techniques."
"Your not mad at me?"
"For what?" Asked Turlus
"For messing up the wall."
"Oh, that," said Turlus, "Don't worry about that."
"Oh, ok…….but what do we do now."
"Well, now we can start fighting."
"Fighting?"
"Yes….well, thats if you feel up to it."
"I'm fine, but.."
Turlus cut me off, "Just let your instincts take over. You'll do just fine don't worry."
I watched as Turlus went into a fighting stance, I mimicked him. //Wow, I wonder why I feel so exhilarated. I guess it's because I'm saiyan.// Turlus lunged at me first, but disappeared when he was about two feet from me. I turned around and kicked out with my right leg. Turlus reappeared and blocked it. I tried a round of punches on him, but was not able to land a single one. After a while I noticed that Turlus was more on the defense and I pulled up my power. Somehow I knew exactly what to do. Suddenly I felt a surge of power go through me. Turlus stopped his attack, "You transformed into a super saiyan."
"Huh? What is a super saiyan?"
"Your a super saiyan right now. When a saiyan reaches a certain point in their power they reach a plateau. Then when a certain event takes place and triggers the transformation. When you transform you become more powerful, you speed increases and your agility becomes much better. Also your physical appearance changes. Your hair tunes blonde and your eye color changes to a teal color."
"What just triggered this transformation?"
"Well, before the accident you knew how to go super saiyan. I guess you just absent mindly did it, now," with that said Turlus went super saiyan.
"May we continue?" Asked Turlus
I nodded my head, and we started fighting again. We fought for 2 more hours, before Turlus decided to call it a day.
"You shouldn't push yourself too hard, not just yet, anyway," said Turlus as he flew down to the console. He took down the force field around it and lowered the gravity. I suddenly felt so light.
"Turlus?"
Turlus turned to face me, "Yes?"
"Why do I feel so light, now?"
"You got use to the gravity before at 20x, but now that we are in normal gravity your body feels light."
The door opened and Vasha entered.
"I saw the screen outside change from 20x to 0x, my lord. Are you and Xenia done?" Asked Vasha.
"Yes, Vasha we are. Why don't you take Xenia back to her room and then show her around the ship." Said Turlus before turning to me, "Is that ok with you Xenia?"
"Ya, that would be great."
I left the room with Vasha following close behind me. I entered the dining hall and was about to go to another corridor when I heard my stomach growl. I heard Vasha laugh, "I'll get you something to eat, just sit down."
I sat down at the table as Vasha left the room. A few minutes later she came back with Cantar following her, each carrying two trays of food. They placed the food infront of me and I could feel my mouth beginning to water. I didn't hesitate for a second, and quickly ate the food. In a matter of minutes everything was gone.
"That was really good, thanks."
"You welcome," said Vasha, "Now lets go to your room, so I can start with my tour."
Vasha grabbed my arm, dragging me out of the room. She looked back, "Cantar get Gain to help you with the dishes."
Then we left the room; we made our way back to my room.
"Before our tour," said Vasha, "Your going to have to take a shower."
"All right," I said.
Vasha waited outside by the door as I took my shower and got changed. I reappeared wearing some baggy blue pants and a white shirt.
"Well, lets get started," said Vasha, "I will give you the `grand tour'."
I followed Vasha as we went around the ship. I couldn't believe how big it was. On our tour we ran into a few men that somehow knew me. I asked Vasha about it, but she said she didn't know. By the end of the tour my feet were killing me.
"Vasha," I whined, "Can I go back to my room. By what you've told me we've seen almost the whole ship. You can show me the rest tomorrow."
"You can go back to your room right after you see Lord Turlus."
"Why does he want to see me again?"
Vasha shrugged her shoulders, "Don't know. He just told me earlier that once I was done showing you around the ship, to bring you to him."
I followed Vasha to Turlus' chamber. Vasha turned to me once we stopped infront of Turlus' chambers.
"I'll go now."
`Why?"
"You know your way back to your room, right?"
"Ya, so?"
"Well, I have to go do something and you don't need my help getting back to your room. But if you do need me just use the phone near your bed. Just call in at 265-5743 and you'll get me, ok."
"All right."
With that Vasha left. I was about to knock on his door, but stopped. //Do I just go in, or should I knock. I don't wanna be rude, but if I knock and I could of just gone in, I'll look like an idiot. Ohhhh, I'll just knock.//
"Come in.." I heard Prince Turlus say.
//How did he know I was out here?// I opened the door and went inside. Turlus was leaning against the mantle above the fireplace.
"How did you know I was out there?"
Turlus turned to me, "I could sense you out there."
I blushed. //If he could sense me, then he knows I was out there for such a long time. Oh, man. Now he thinks I'm stupid or something//
"Ummm….why did you want to see me?" I asked
Turlus sat down, "I would like to explain to you about what it is we do. Please, sit down."
I went over to the other chair and sat down, "We?"
"Yes, we. As in myself, my crew and you, before the attack. We work for a very powerful man; he is our master. I don't even know his name, but I've seen his power. It's far greater then all off us put together. We destroy or pillage planets for him; whenever he desires us to do so. We are all soldiers, you were one as well, since you power was so great."
I couldn't believe what he was saying, he seemed so nice to me. //How can he just kill people?!?!//
"You kill people?!" I asked in alarm, hoping I had heard him wrong before.
"Yes, but…"
I cut him off, "How can just kill innocent people?!"
"He'll kill us if we don't."
"Well, why don't you try to fight him! Thats better than killing innocent people!"
"How would you know?!"
"I'm not that naïve! I may have amnesia, but I still know what is right and what is wrong! I won't take part in this, not now, not ever!!"
"You have to!" Insisted Turlus.
"Why? Why do I `have to'?"
"If you don't……"
"If I don't you'll do what?! Activate those units?"
Turlus looked up at me in surprise, "How do you know…?"
I got up, gesturing to the door, "I was listening to you and the doctor last night! You were talking about units and how they would help you get revenge on Goku! They must be some type of mind control thing! Aren't they?!"
Turlus frowned, "Well, it seems you'll find out soon enough."
"What do mean?!" I demanded
"I didn't want to do this, but you leave me no choice."
Turlus picked up the phone next to him and punched in a few numbers. I rushed at him trying to take the phone. He just fired a ki blast at me; sending me right into the wall.
"Yes, doctor. It's me," said Turlus
I got up ready to take another lunge at him.
"Activate them," I heard Turlus say. I was just about to punch him, when pain soared into my body. I clutched my head, as the pain became more intense. I could feel myself becoming weaker and weaker. The last thing I saw was Turlus' mocking smile, before everything went black.
