Storm
It’s strange how fast time goes in their world compared to ours it’s like one moment
you wake up and like seconds later almost it’s lunch time. I guess the training does
that. That’s why I skipped a few training days. Yes I know bad me. But I guess I
preferred to train at my own pace. Goku and Piccolo were just too fast for me to keep
an eye on, so when they trained together I sparred off with Gohan, at least he wasn’t
beating me to the ground yet.
But this day it was like thee day, Chi-chi was off shopping and Gohan and Piccolo
were off training I had told Piccolo and Goku about performing the spell and that I’d
need Goku there. but Gohan had to suspect nothing. I think Piccolo feed Gohan
something about me and Goku training privately. Ergh as if that was suspicious well
we said we’d catch up with them later so yeah we would.
I had everything set up. Goku leant up against the cave wall watching me. I couldn’t
do it in his house, I didn’t want to sever any bonds that he had with Chi-chi that
would totally mess things out. Goku watched quietly as I wandered round the pentacle
I’d drawn in the center of the cave floor sprinkling water going over my cleansing. I
covered all four corners and you got to remember movies make these things look
quick when in fact in real life they can take up to three hours depending on what
you’re asking for. Everything was running smoothly I stood there for a few minutes
doing my invocation of the Lord and Lady asking for them to empower me and for a
second I felt Goku’s power level flicker he must of picked up the rise in my power
level. He seemed surprised. I then sat down cross legged and began to carve in to
three of candles with the safety pin I carved on the green healing of heart, the red the
creativity and passion to move on and the blue peace of mind and wisdom to keep me
out of future predicaments. The rest of the set up went basically the white candle in
the corner of south for fire. The safety pin placed in east for air. Water in the corner
of west for get this water. And I had a small rock in the north corner for earth. I
placed my hand over each object checking for the energy levels once satisfied I took
the matches and lit the white candle. In the center of the pentacle I sprinkled the
thyme whispering words to give me courage to do the complete ritual and to give me
stronger psychic powers to avoid future confrontations with married men. I then
looked up at Goku.
“C’mon over I need you for this part.” I said.
Goku nodded he walked over and I motion him to sit opposite me and he did I
grabbed the rope and began tying up one of his hands he looked at me I then tied up
one of my hands he looked confused.
“This rope symbolises our bond.” I explained. I took the rope back to his wrist and
tied it up again. “There are two lines here. One you will cut acknowledging that you
are severing your link with me and the other I will cut to sever my link with
you.”
“Oh.” He nodded. This must of looked so odd to him he’d probably never seen an
actual witch at work before.
I picked up the scissors. I looked at Goku. “Okay remember this line because you will
have to say it when you cut the rope.” I said. “It’s pretty simple though.”
Goku nodded. I couldn’t tell what he felt about this whole thing to me it seemed so
final though. It was time though to see how strong my wiccan powers were in this
dimension.
“I cut this rope to cut this bond.” I said cutting my part of the rope.
I handed the scissors over to Goku. “I cut this rope to cut this bond.” he repeated.
I watched as he cut the rope. He then handed the scissors back to me.
I removed my rope as did Goku. “Okay give me your part of the rope.”
Goku undid the rope and he handed it over I put the two ropes together in one hand
and began to recite a verse as I kept cutting the rope several times.
“By this cut of one, the severing has begun, by this cut of two our lives renewed, by
the cut of three the power’s in me, by the cut of four the power is more, by the cut of
five the power’s alive, by the cut of six, my fate’s not fixed, by the cut of seven, the
power’s leaven, by the cut of eight I make my own fate, by the cut of nine, the power
is mine.” I felt Goku stay still watching me, his eyes looking on the pieces of rope on
the ground. The reason for continually cutting the rope is severing any strands of the
bond I might of missed. But at the same time gathering the rest of power up from it
for release.
I placed my right hand on the ground. “Love collected, love released.” I said and
thumped my hand down on the ground.
Goku jumped back suddenly I don’t know why. He must of felt the power suddenly
leave. I stood up and walked round the circle anti clockwise releasing all those I had
invoked the watchtowers and the lord and lady and I closed up with the classic line.
“May this spell not reverse of place upon us any curse. So mote it be.” I looked at
Goku. “Blessed be. Merry meet and merry part until we merry meet again.”
I stomped my foot on the ground releasing the rest of the energy. I pulled out a thermo
canister holding the tea and poured myself a cup.
Goku looked at me I wasn’t sure what he thought for someone so naive to witness
another way of conjuring energy must of been a shock to him.
“I don’t bite Goku sit down it’s grounding energy time.” I remarked.
“Grounding energy?” He asked.
“Um like after battle how you power down out of super saiyan.” I explained.
“Oh.” He sat down opposite me and I handed him a cup of tea he looked at me.
“It’s just tea.” I remarked.
He took a cup and took a sip. I then pulled out the capsule’s of food and popped them
open Goku looked at me.
“Eat up. I can’t have you wandering round with my energy levels coming off you.
This will help ground any energies you could of picked up off me.”
Was that a wise thing to do? Wiccan wise it’s the best way. Sure I’m not fond of
Goku’s eating. But food I know is the obvious and most effective way of grounding
energy.
After eating and cleaning up we headed back over to Piccolo and Gohan. I sat down
by the river back while the three of them trained. I can’t exactly train after a spell or
magickal working the energy drained is like android sucking type except it’s just to
sleepy level not death. So I lay under a tree eating the rest of my marshmallows for
help in healing me and giving me friendship. I drifted off to sleep under that tree I got
woken up by water being splashed on me and I sat up I saw Gohan in the water and he
chuckled at me I smiled and him and Goku began to splash each other I looked over
to see Piccolo meditating.
“C’mon in Lee. The water’s just right!” Gohan grinned at me.
“Ergh.” I flopped back down. “Tired.” I groaned.
I think the boys went off fishing then Goku and Gohan. I didn’t see them for a while
they were to busy catching fish with their hands. Goku was probably the best father
Gohan could have. They were two in the same. It made me wonder if my future self
had fallen for Gohan for that reason. That he was his father’s son.
I pushed myself up and leant up against a tree. I sighed. My power level I felt had
dropped incredibly I was beat like I had been training.
I looked up as I saw Piccolo standing over me. “I can sense you ended it.” He
said.
I nodded. “So tired.” flopped back on to the ground and Piccolo sat next to me and
examined my neck I looked over at him.
“Hey. What are you doing?” I asked.
Piccolo nodded. “The mark is gone. Gohan and myself felt your power level rise
beyond that of what we’ve felt possible out of you. Gohan thought you were going all
out against Goku.” He explained. “Possibly a super saiyan.” He added.
“I called on foreign powers.” I replied.
Piccolo looked at me. “Foreign powers. Well maybe you could use those powers more
often in training.” He said.
“I can’t they aren’t mine. Unless it’s a magickal working, spell or life or death
situation I can’t.” I replied.
“Are you planning on using them against the androids?” He asked.
“If they try to kill me. I will. You’ll be amazed how much power the Gods can give.
It’s like becoming temporarily immortal.” I replied and yawned. “Problem is. It has a
time limit, but that depends on the users body.”
Piccolo nodded. The two of us looked over as Goku and Gohan came back with a
large fish and I cringed. “Damn man that thing’s huge!”
“It is isn’t it?” Goku grinned and he ruffled Gohan’s hair. “Gohan caught it.”
I nodded slowly. ‘Okay so here comes the part where Goku and Piccolo are
screamed at to get their licenses.’ I thought then frowned. ‘Will Chi-chi yell at
me. please let me be too young in this world. Please, please, please.’ I begged in
my mind.
The four of us made our way back to Goku’s place all I wanted to do was sleep as I
flew back I felt like I was collapsing.
I landed outside and my legs instantly gave way embarrassing as it was Gohan caught
me. The young eight year old looked up at me.
“Wow you are exhausted did my dad wear you out in training?” He asked.
I nodded slowly and yawned. “Yeah.” I replied.
We made our way inside Piccolo stayed at the door and Goku put the fish on the
counter, Gohan helped me to my room to sleep. Which is what I did so I missed
Chi-chi yelling at Goku to get his license and I missed Piccolo’s expression when
Chi-chi dragged him in to it. But I slept I suppose getting energy back was more
important.
I remember waking up later that night and going out there. Chi-chi she bustled me to
the table to eat some vegetables. She was smiling all the way.
“It’s too bad you’re not over twenty-five or you could go with them tomorrow and
keep and eye on them for me. I’m making htem go for their licenses.” She was
saying.
“Twenty-five? Ergh I’m under age for everything here.” I sighed.
Chi-chi looked at me. “What’s the legal age in your world?” She asked.
“Well in my country of my world it’s eighteen. But everywhere else I think it’s like
twenty-one to twenty-five or something. I’m not to sure.” I replied.
“Well tomorrow and the following days while those two muscle bound oafs. I’m
going to stay here and make sure Gohan gets some study in. I called Bulma and she’ll
be by to pick you up to take you shopping. I’m sure you’re getting tired of those old
clothes.” Chi-chi said.
I nodded slowly. “Yeah I am actually. If I never wear that red shirt again it’s too
soon.” I then began to eat the dinner Chi-chi had so kindly cooked for me.
The next day I spent going from mall to mall with Bulma and we got some serious
shopping done for me. It was actually fun. Bulma got me some clothes I could use to
battle the androids in. I wasn’t going to wear an orange gi. Reason I didn’t train under
Master Roshi and I wasn’t going to wear a saiyan uniform. I don’t think Vegeta
thought me worthy of it. What did I pick to fight the androids in? Well a pair of dark
cargo pants and an army camo tanktop with a dark jacket and yellow boots much like
my own favorite ones. Not the same as Trunks boots more like the ones that are in
fashion in our world. Yes the ones that crazy guy wore to the basketball game where
he got picked out for a half way court shot to the hoop- because of his boots. Yes
those boots!
I got over packed with clothes and girls under wear and stuff I hadn’t had the
privilege of having in this world. So you can imagine my relief when I got other chick
supplies bought for my by Bulma. It was good to shop with a woman. I couldn’t
exactly explain that situation to Goku and I was lucky for the past month that the one
time I needed it Chi-chi had gratefully helped me out.
I remember returning from our shopping spree and going to spy on Vegeta in the
training capsule I still remember hoovering by the small window looking in on him in
that red room. It reminded me of a dark room where photo’s were developed. How I
missed doing that. My photography. I levitated to the ground and turned round I saw
Yamcha not far off training in the back yard and I bounced up to him.
“Hey hey we’re the monkee’s people say we’re monkeeing around...” I sung.
Yamcha stopped throwing punches in to mid air and he looked at me.
“Why aren’t you training?” He asked.
“Oh Chi-chi sent Goku and Piccolo off... um somewhere and she’s keeping Gohan in
for study so I got the day off I guess.” I replied.
Yamcha nodded. “So what have you done with this day off so far?” He asked.
“Ummmm.... I shopped and I shopped good.” I replied.
“Well I think that’s a good thing.” He said uncertain.
I looked at Yamcha as he went back to training. He seemed as determined as Vegeta
was. But I knew his soul mission was to prove that he could do what Vegeta could. I
guess he was getting jealous of Bulma’s feelings towards the saiyan guest.
I looked at my tail as it swished behind me. I don’t know why but it felt almost
natural now, after a year and probably a month or so. But I still had itchings to get it
removed. I noticed Yamcha look at it nervously. I’d never seen the dragonball series
but I had a fair idea on why he was nervous about them the whole giant ape thing did
seem to strike fear and good reason too. I actually didn’t want to become the female
equivalent of king kong.
“Yamcha do you think I should get my tail removed?” I asked him.
He stopped training and looked at me sitting on the ground crosslegged. “Depends if
you want to or not. We have no moon anymore. But you’re oozaru form could come
in handy when fighting the androids.” He said.
I looked at Yamcha. “I’ve never gone oozaru before I wouldn’t know how to control
it. There would be no one who could control me.” I replied.
Yamcha looked at me. “But you’re world you have a full moon once a month.”
“I have witch qualities in that world that is more prominent. So it doesn’t work.”
I wasn’t sure what Yamcha thought but he looked at me. He then sat down next to
me. I don’t know why I felt butterflies in my stomach. This was Yamcha but because
I had done that spell. I felt it had truly worked. Unless I was taking on anime style and
getting shy round men...
“Well for safety sake I guess I’d say best to get it removed. But I don’t know. You
could talk to Vegeta about it. Perhaps he can train you in your oozaru form.”
I looked at Yamcha like he had an extra head. “Are you kidding? No way am I asking
for Vegeta’s help. I’d die first.” I replied.
“Die first huh? I can make that possible girl.” Vegeta spoke up.
I scolded myself for not being able to detect power levels fully yet. But by Yamcha’s
expression I could tell he didn’t pick up Vegeta’s power level either.
“Go back to training.” I remarked and crossed my arms across my chest.
“You’ve never gone oozaru before huh? I must say it could prove an asset but even
the androids would probably know of this form. Still you’d probably be a challenge in
this form.” Vegeta smirked.
“Huh?” I remarked confused.
“I’ll tell you what meet me here tonight and we’ll work on this.” He then walked
inside. I blinked and looked at Yamcha.
“Did he just agree to train with me?” I asked.
Yamcha looked at me I don’t know what he thought but he nodded. “I think he
did.”
“If he thinks I’m going to be flattered by this he’s got another thing coming.” I
grumbled more to myself than anyone else.
Yamcha looked at me. “Man you really hate Vegeta. Wow I’m the one that should not
you.” He remarked.
If only Yamcha knew that if I was given a chance with Vegeta I would go for it and
that this ‘I hate Vegeta’ thing was just an act to get him to hate me so he could be
with Bulma.
I don’t know why I meet Vegeta after dark I guess any advantage over the androids
was a good one. Vegeta lead me to a isolated island. We landed on the island I
shuddered. The cold was getting to me and I told myself off for not telling Goku or
Piccolo what I was up to. But I reminded myself I was no longer bonded to Goku so it
didn’t matter and I kinda figured Piccolo wouldn’t like the oozaru form after the
trouble he had with Gohan in earlier episodes.
A flash of light came from behind me and I saw Vegeta with a large sphere in his
hand and he threw it up in to the sky. I looked at him.
“Now is the time to see if you are a true saiyan or not girl.” He grinned.
‘So that’s what this was all about!’ I thought. He wanted to see if I was a true
saiyan. I was suddenly scared to look up at the false moon.
“But Vegeta. What if I can’t control it?” I asked.
“Then I’ll pull your tail out. It will grow back. So long as it’s not cut off it will grow
back If not that then I’ll destroy the false moon.” He explained.
I took in a deep breath and I looked up towards the false moon. I could see Vegeta
staring at me from the corner of my eye.
“Don’t look at me girl! Look up there.” Vegeta growled and pointed.
I then began to look fully upon the glowing sphere. I shuddered feeling my tremble
was it fear or adrenal. I’d had this before. The shakes from adrenal before a fight.
Why I got a rush from battle back in my own world when I wasn’t a saiyan was
beyond me. But it was normal my brother got it to. I felt my body beginning to change
slowly.
“Vegeta... something’s wrong I can’t control... this.” I suddenly double over the
amount of pain going through this sort of transformation is incredible to see. But too
experience don’t ask me I couldn’t remember any of it.
I remember waking up in rubble in the dark my clothes badly torn by body was
aching, I felt the ocean lap up to my feet and I bolted up awake I looked over seeing
Vegeta sitting on a rock staring off as if contemplating his own thoughts. I looked
behind me the island rubble I looked down seeing I was lying in a large king kong
shaped foot print I let out a startled cry jumped out of it and falling over in the most
embarrassing way in to the water.
Vegeta looked over at me. “What happened?” I asked.
“You went oozaru girl.” He growled. “So perhaps you are a saiyan after all.”
“You’re kidding me? I did it?” I asked.
Vegeta stood up. “But you have no control. Your oozaru is something I have never
seen before. The powers were limitless almost unnaturally dark like calling upon
foreign powers beyond saiyans. Your moves weren’t the typical ones. Yet if you knew
how to control this then it would be perfect for you to fight the androids with.”
I looked at Vegeta. “But how can I control this sort of thing?”
“You probably can’t but Kakarott could control you. He is you’re mate after all.”
Vegeta remarked glaring out across the ocean water.
“Uh...” I frowned.
Vegeta looked over at me he knew something was wrong just by my little uh.
“He is you’re mate isn’t he? I saw the marking on your neck. And on his before I left
you lot on that day he returned.”
“I severed it Vegeta. We both did.” I replied.
Vegeta stalked up to me and grabbed me I let out a startled cry and with one hand he
pushed my head to the side and I felt him stare at my neck. He then pushed me over.
“How the devil did you sever a bond?! A saiyan bond is for the rest of our lives. You
can’t just sever it!” He protested.
“I cast a spell Vegeta. I’m not a full Saiyan anyway. I’m part witch too.” I
replied.
He looked at me as if understanding something. “Then that’s where these other
powers come from. In your form. Well then we will meet again here tomorrow night
and we will do this again and again until you will get it.”
“What about becoming a super saiyan?” I asked.
“In this battle size will matter.” He replied.
“No it won’t not when the first two can suck the life out of people with just a touch.
I’ll be like a prime target!” I exclaimed.
“I need a good challenge girl and I found it in you’re oozaru form. You will meet me
or else.” He threatened.
I sighed. “Yes your highness.” I drooled.
Vegeta smirked at me. “Finally you’re realising.” He then took off leaving me there.
I looked behind I saw my tail still in tack. Vegeta must of destroyed the false moon so
he could keep training with me. I then flew back to Goku’s.
I landed outside Goku’s place I felt beat. I hadn’t intended to spar but I obviously had
I was just so tired. I then realised that I had left all my shopping capsules back at
Bulma’s so it meant going back there. I guess I didn’t actually end up living there but
visiting regularly. My brain obviously didn’t function well after my body had been
beaten up. I walked slowly to the door there were no lights on. So I knew everyone
was fast asleep I really didn’t want to wake them up.
“At least someone got some training in.” Piccolo’s voice stopped me before opening
the door. I looked over my shoulder at him.
“I look that bad huh?” I asked.
“I’ve seen better.” Piccolo commented.
“Always one for complements aren’t you?” I drooled.
“Question is who’d you train with?” He asked. “I doubt Yamcha could do that sort of
damage. Let alone Krillen.” He added.
“If you must know it was Vegeta. But I bet you it was pretty obvious.” I replied.
“I thought as much. What made you train with him?” Piccolo asked.
“I have my tail. And he has the false moon move.” I replied.
I saw Piccolo’s eyes go wide. “So he’s training you to control that?” He asked.
I nodded. “I think he’s finally accepting me. But I feel so behind. He’s on his way to
becoming a super saiyan. and I’m just turning in to King Kong’s girlfriend.”
Piccolo looked at me. “Do you know if this is a good idea?” He asked.
I shook my head. “I don’t know I can’t remember a thing. Vegeta seems to think he
can teach me how to control the form though. I guess I have no other choice.”
Piccolo nodded. “I think that’s how you end up at Capsule Corp. It would be
easier.”
“I can’t go there. What if I jeopardise Trunks birth by just being round Vegeta and
being a female saiyan?” I panicked. “I was only with Goku six months before-”
“Well talk to who ever you talk to in your meditation and see if they can’t answer that
question for you.” He replied.
I nodded and yawned. “Okay. Forgive me if I don’t train with you guys when you og
back to training. But I think Vegeta busted me up pretty good. But I’m going to go to
recover for tomorrow night.”
Piccolo just nodded and I opened the door quietly and slipped in to the house closing
the door quietly and down the hallway to the room I was staying in.
I must of been training with Vegeta for three weeks before I remember my oozaru
form. It was strange really looking down on Vegeta like that and feeling all this anger.
It was hard to control but I controlled it. Vegeta knew this too because he had to
provoke me to attack him and when I did it was quiet fun trying to stomp him down
like a bug. I spent about seven hours training with him in that form before he
cancelled it out by destroying the false moon.
I remember he looked at me after that. I knew then when he looked at me I’d spent
more time with him than I should of. He didn’t make any move on me. I don’t know
if he wanted to or anything. But the fact that Goku had got to me first that stopped
him. If one thing I noticed about Vegeta was that he was extremely proud. He
wouldn’t I then realised. He would think it but his determination not to be Goku’s
shadow was over powering him. And so I was safe. The only thing I had to do now
was spilt Yamcha and Bulma up. Which meant moving to Capsule Corp. But what I
really wanted to do now was create a false moon. So I could use my oozaru form and
freak Piccolo out. Okay not a nice thought. But hey, I always wanted to see if he still
had a fear of that after what happened with Gohan.
Over the remaining few hours of the night I got Vegeta to teach me this false moon
move. He seemed reluctant at first. But then I said If he taught me I’d stop bugging
him and he could continue his mission to become a super saiyan. So that him teaching
me. And it didn’t take long to learn in fact it was just like creating a large ki ball and
that was it the only difference was controlling the light of the ki ball. But I managed
that easy enough and by the end of the night I was able to control my oozaru form and
create the false moon to help me reach that form. I decided I would leave my oozaru
form to use on eighteen and seventeen instead of Dr. Gero and nineteen they could
steal that power the other two couldn’t.
I left Vegeta before sunrise and I arrived back at Goku’s just as he was getting up. He
looked at me and blinked seeing my clothes torn and my entire body exhausted.
“Lee where have you been?” He asked.
“Training with Vegeta. He gave me an ace up my sleeve to use on the androids if they
don’t know about this form.” I yawned.
“Oh wow I wondered where you vanished off to at night and why you were sleeping
during the day.” He remarked.
I grinned “Just falling back in to the norm of my own world I never moved during the
day there either.” I smiled.
“Well rest up get your energy up. I’d like to see this new trick you’ve got.” He
smiled.
