Chapter One

"Mysterious Girl"

It was exactly noon in the small, but high-tech town in the middle of the woods. Vegeta was walking down the street, looking for a new restaurant. He'd been banned from all the old ones for eating all the food they had for the month. He was hoping there might be a new, unsuspecting one because his stomach was protesting loudly from being

fed only an hour ago. He was Super Saiyan to impress and/or frighten all the "pitiful earthlings." It was working. People backed away cautiously as he strutted down the street, surrounded by a yellow aura. They were all "oooh"ing and "aaaaahhh"ing amongst themselves. Vegeta smirked as he passed them.

Suddenly, a new scent floated in on the gentle spring breeze. It was somehow faintly familiar. Vegeta shrugged it off and continued walking. About five minutes later, he noticed that it was still around. Again, he dismissed it and continued his search for food. Ten minutes had passed and the smell was still there. Could it be following him? No way, he thought, you're getting paranoid. And shrugged it off once more. In another ten minutes, the smell still drifted in the air. He looked around casually but saw nothing suspicious. People were bustling around, going about their useless, puny lives. Vegeta growled silently and kept walking. He turned down another street where most of the fast food places were located and looked for new ones. The smell seemed to follow him wherever he went. Then, to his annoyance, another strange one joined in. This was beginning to irritate him. They both smelled vaguely familiar, the first one more so than this new one. He didn't know how, but they did. He looked around again, but everything seemed normal. Earthlings were gawking at him, pointing and whispering, scuttling away when he cast his cold eyes over them.

After about five minutes, the newer smell disappeared. He hoped the older one would get off his back as well, as not knowing what it was made him angry. He then saw a form in the shadows. He continued to walk normally, glancing over at it out of the corner of his eye. As he neared it, it appeared to be a person. He/she was leaning against a building, one leg bent at the knee with his/her foot against the wall and arms crossed. He could have sworn it was a boy, the person's hair was cut at his/her ears, but as he continued to near, it turned out to be a girl. Her facial features made her unmistakable. She was looking a small distance behind him, intent upon whatever she was watching. She looked about his age, which was still pretty young in Saiyan years. She had brown/bronze hair with a red/gold look when light poked through the nearby trees and the shadows to occasionally light up her face. It was silver at the tips, had a part down the middle of the top of her head and she had bangs that were as long as the rest of her hair. Her eyes were an intriguing, vivid icy blue with sort of a silver shimmer. She wore a royal blue, sleeveless tunic with a long sleeve, silver shirt underneath. She also wore silver leggings. She had crimson boots on that came up just past her ankles. It wouldn't be obvious to an average being, but Vegeta could clearly see there was a dagger in the right one. She wore a gold cape and black gloves. The gloves reminded him of his own, as they cut off halfway up to the middle knuckle, and they stopped just at her wrist. They had silver stitching. Coiled around her black belt was a whip. It looked fairly easy to retrieve...well...not for a girl. He smirked at the thought of a girl fighting. She also had a sort of headband. It was silver, but darker than that of her outfit. It looked like molten mercury. It went under the front part of her hair and came up to go over it just behind her ears. There were two other odd things about her that Vegeta noticed. She wore a necklace of a silver, howling wolf with a gold sword behind it and a large, round ruby behind that. A sapphire circle went around this whole little image, which was around her neck by means of a gold chain. It was so magnificent, Vegeta was sure she couldn't have gotten anything like it on Earth. And the other...she had a tail. It was a Saiyan tail as well. Though it was slightly sleeker than a normal one and looked softer and silkier, it was most definitely a Saiyan tail, though it was silver. Could that be why she smelled familiar?

Suddenly, the girl looked right at him. He was walking almost right past her now; his movement must have caught her eye. He looked

away and pretended to look across the street as if checking for traffic.

Ah, there he is, the girl thought. Good job, Cosorce, you found him. It's about time though! How long does a girl have to wait? Men! Anyway, now that he's in sight, I'm free to follow again. Suddenly, Vegeta noticed he hadn't been paying attention to those strange scents. He sniffed the air but only smelled the newer one that had disappeared only a few minutes ago. The first one he had smelled around lunchtime was gone. He cursed himself and looked at the girl. She was still there, but instead of looking off into the distance, she was staring straight at him. She looked startled as he returned her gaze coldly.

Oh crap! He's not supposed to see me! She thought frantically. Stupid, stupid girl! Oh well, he couldn't have gotten a good look, now stay out of sight! She thought, cursing herself as she retreated into the shadows.

Vegeta thought it odd that as soon as he looked at her, she had fled. He decided to dismiss this whole thing until later, when he could properly analyze it. For now, he resumed his search for something to eat. As he continued down the street, he noticed both the scents had picked up again. This was really starting to piss him off.

Then, the hairs on the back of his neck stood up, tingling. Someone was there. He turned around to look. Suddenly, someone leaped out of the shadows at him with a yell. A blur of silver crossed his path. There was an instant of angry yelling, cursing and growling, and then all was silent as his attacker vanished. A tuft of silver fur floated carelessly down in front of him. Movement caught his eye and he whipped around. He got a glimpse of something about the size of a tiger and silver. Then there was nothing except the same blue/silver eyes the mysterious girl had, peering out at him from the shadows for an instant, then they were gone.
