Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Twisted Dimensions ❯ Before You Know It ( Chapter 4 )
Ali helped my through the portal and into FF.net where she was meet by Wolfcry.
"Are you alright?" She asked as Catie and Leelee drifted over to hear what had happened.
"I'm alright, I had a little help," I answered.
"From Piccolo!" She cried, "Do you realize what could have happened?! You were out for quite some time, who knows what could have gotten through your portal!"
"I know," I muttered as I hung my head. My voice turned a little cold, "I erased Piccolo's mind, he won't remember anything. I can check with Jesscheaux later to see if anything unwanted got in."
Wolfcry took a deep breath, calming down. I understand, she has the toughest job. Making sure everything goes the way it's supposed to, fixing other people's mistakes when needed, "Alright, but that was a pretty nasty fall you took. Rest up for a bit before you go back in, Leelee can take your place for a while."
I nodded, "Thanks."
Everyone was going back to what they were usually doing, Catgirl and Cell were headed off toward the rooms.
I remembered the question I was going to ask them. I started to follow them when someone jumped on my back, "Oof!"
"Geez chica! Are you alright?!" Lindsey's voice meet my ears.
"What happened out there?" Sheba asked.
"Long story," I answered as Lindsey got off and listened intently to what I had to say.
Sheba stared wide-eyed at me, "You got to meet Piccolo, but you had to erase his memory? Geez, that must have really sucked girl."
"Tell me about it," I completely agreed, "I was debating whether to kiss him or run away for fear of hurting the timeline"
Lindsey shook her head at me, "Your job got the best of ya, huh?"
I nodded.
Sheba laughed, "Well, you get some rest. We must get back to that job."
"Good luck," I said as I started walking off. I was going to head towards Catgirl's room, but then I heard my name over the intercom.
It was Yiku telling me to go find my sister, she wanted to see me.
"Aww!" I whined, I didn't want to go all the way to the Yu-Gi-Oh department, "Family."
I found the nearest elevator and pushed the "up" button. There was a slight hum as it came down from some other level before coming to rest at mine.
The doors opened up to an empty elevator with a white interior. Elevator music was playing, but not the kind your used to. At the moment it was playing the DBZ Theme song, Rock the Dragon.
I stepped in and pushed number 28. The DBZ floor is number 6, Yu-Gi-Oh it number 28.
I could feel a slight tug from gravity as I was lifted up twenty-two floors. There was a pause before the doors opened to two authoress waiting their turn. I stepped into the otherwise empty corridor.
Yu-Gi-Oh music was playing loudly over the speakers as I glanced at the doors. I was walking at a somewhat fast pace. Only because I felt like a new comer again, I just hate that feeling.
I passed doors by the handful until I came to the one I wanted. Crimson Rain was painted in shiny, red letters. The lettering stood out against the navy blue background.
I opened the door and I could hear my sister playing her favorite song over the speakers, Heart of Sword.
My sister was sitting at her desk writing something, Yami and Bakura were off dueling each other.
I walked over to her desk and slapped my hands on the desk. She looked up at me with her usual glare, "Yes?"
"You wanted to see me, dear sister?" I said annoyingly.
"Heard about your accident, you ok?" Kacie asked going back to the paper. It wasn't fiction, it was fan art.
"Was I gone that long?" I asked, at least she was being a little bit sincere.
"Long enough for someone to notice," A new voice chimed in.
I turned to see Malik and Marik come out of the shadows, my sister's other favorite characters.
I turned to my sister, "What he said," She said in response, not looking up from her Yami drawing.
"Aww, I didn't think you guys cared!" I said turning to Marik and pulled out a small key chain that had a small, shiny disco ball on the end. " Oh Marik, I've been saving this for you. I thought you might want to add it to your collection."
The blonde, Egyptian spirit immediately turned from Malik at hearing his collection mentioned. Upon seeing the gleaming disco ball, his usually hard, cold sneer disappeared and was replaced by a starry-eyed grin.
Marik snatched the ball out of my hands, petting it and hissing at anyone who came near it, except for Malik.
Kacie looked up, a bored look on her face. " Oh great, you gave him something shiny. How do you expect me to get him to work? He's going to be worshipping that thing all day."
Marik growled and hugged the ball closer. " It is NOT a THING!!! It's the beautiful, shiny, glittery, sexy, adorable, precious, and amazing DISCO BALL!!"
There was a loud snicker from a door to the side of Kacie's desk as Bakura and Yami came into the room.
" Oh look. The bleached-blonde bimbo found a new toy." Bakura smirked at Kacie, enjoying the annoyed look on her face.
" That's nothing to be happy about, Tomb Robber! Now she's going to give us over time cause Marik's going to obsess over that, then he'll go put it in his collection and sit there for days admiring his shiny stuff!" Yami crossed his arms over his chest and glared at the starry-eyed blonde.
I glanced between the group of three and the two blondes and scratched my head. " I didn't know you guys worked."
Yami waved his hand dismissively. " She forces us to do it. If we don't, she'll make us stay with Pegasus. And by Ra, that man is scary!"
" Hey!" I balled my hands into fists. " He is not that bad!"
Bakura grinned evilly at the Sennen Puzzle spirit and then turned back to me. " Watch out Yami, looks like we have a fangirl in the house."
Yami snickered and the two yamis walked out another door.
I stared after the two, still glaring, but shrugged it off, turning to Marik. " I hope you like your present."
The blonde spirit hissed. " Get away! It's mine! My precious!"
" Um.. ok.. right." I shook my head and looked at my sister again. " Well, I have to get back to my floor. See ya later."
" Hn." Kacie waved her pen towards the door semi-consciously, still enthralled with her picture.
I sighed once I was outside the door, "Not even my room is that crazy..."
"You don't know the half of it!" My sister's voice called to me.
I smirked and headed back to my floor.
~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Bac k on the DBZ floor I walked up to Catgirl's room. I listened for a moment, before I entered. There were loud voices coming from the inside.
"No!" Goku's voice yelled, "You can't put that much energy in to the Kamehameha Wave!"
"ME!!!!" Cell's voice just continued on, "HA!!!"
I rolled my eyes, they were acting out the Cell saga. I carefully opened the door to see the ring and all the fighters surrounding that.
I glanced around and saw Catgirl standing on a cliff overlooking the ring.
Goku deflected the blast and landed.
"That blast was too close to escape, how did you do it?" Cell asked, a bit of sarcasm touching his voice.
"Just luck I guess," Goku answered plainly.
I flew over to where Catgirl was standing, she gave a little wave before answering the unasked question, "He wanted to go through it again. Correct some errors."
I took notice that there was no annoying guy with an afro on the sidelines, "Nice improvement."
"Yes, you're very lucky," Cell spat, "But how did you dodge it."
"A new technique," Goku stated, "The instant transmission."
"Instant, huh?" Cell said, "Sounds like it could come in handy."
"Yup," Goku answered.
"I kinda figured you'd do something heroic to save this planet," Cell glanced over at us and gave a little smirk.
"Oh," Goku said knowingly, "So you were counting on me to deflect the blast."
Cell turned to Goku, his smirk fading, "Don't get the wrong idea. I do not care about this planet and it's filthy humans, but without it there'd be no one to KILL!"
I smirked as Cell lunged at Goku, "So he wanted to feel macho again, huh?"
Catgirl grinned, not taking her eyes off the fight, and nodded.
I took my staff out of my pocket, where it had stayed the entire time. I let it grow until it was it's normal size again, "I've got a question for ya..."
"Shoot," Catgirl said without hesitation.
I turned to her, I had the most serious look on my face, "Are you and Cell dating?"
She face-faulted and fell to the ground, anime style.
I couldn't stifle my laugh. I heard a crash on the battlefield and I turned to see Cell flat on his back, his face a lovely shade of purple, "Well, that doesn't really answer my question."
"And here I thought you were going to ask a serious question," Catgirl huffed from her spot on the ground.
I grinned at her, "I'm hurt! I thought you knew me better than that! Tsk, Tsk."
Catgirl got up, rubbing the back of her head, "Yeah, I'm sorry."
The Z warriors faded from existence and Cell was up off the ground and walking toward us.
"What would ever intrigue your mind so much that you'd have to ask a question like that?" Catgirl asked as Cell, who was still blushing, joined the two.
"Oh nothing much," I said casually, "Just a few things I've noticed..."
The room suddenly did a change. Catgirl must have been thinking hard about a memory. This scene was at night, and about the same vicinity as the arena.
I watched with interest as I saw another Cell and Catgirl looking over side of a cliff. Catgirl slipped on a piece of rock and fall over the edge, only to have Cell grab her wrist.
I turned to Cell and Catgirl as the scene faded back to a normal white room. Both were blushing furiously, "I see..."
Catgirl was trying to glare at me, but failing. Her eyes suddenly focused on my neck, "Hey, weren't you wearing a choker or something earlier?"
My hand went to my neck instinctively. My choker was gone!
"Oh no!" I cried, "It must have fallen off in the DBZ world!"
I turned toward the door to leave.
"Wait!" Catgirl's voice called after me, "You aren't thinking of going and getting it were you?"
"Of course I'm going after it!" I turned to look at the two.
"Well, we're going too!" Catgirl declared.
"We are?" Cell asked and after receiving the "look" from her, "Oh! I mean, we are!"
I rolled my eyes, "Come if you want, but lets hurry."
"Yeah, by now Pickles might have found it," Catgirl said as we walked to the portals.
"That's what I'm afraid of," I said as we passed Wolfcry.
"Where do you think you're off too?" Wolfcry asked.
"My choker fell off inside the dimension," I said, stopping to face her, "I have to go get it back."
Wolfcry nodded, "I'm not even going to try to stop you, but you should take this."
She held a communicator out to me, "Press the red button if you need help or if anything happens."
It was a small, black communicator with one red button on it, "Like I could press anything else."
"Hey, P.G., aren't you even going to say hi?"
I snapped my head toward the big screen, Jesscheaux was now waving, "Hey Jess!"
"Heard about your little accident and checked everything out for ya," She went on.
Shin snuck up behind her and finished what she was apparently going to say, "Everything looks ok on Planet Earth!"
He ducked as she took a swing at him, "Hey midget! I don't like being interrupted!"
"Don't you know it's rude to call people names?" He countered, "Why do I even bother to put up with you?"
"I'm sorry!" She hugged him, "You bother because you luv me!"
He grumbled something not audible, "We'll be in touch in case we overlooked something, but it's highly unlikely."
"Thanks guys," I answered as the screen went black. I breathed in deep, "Alright, let's go!"
