| She trained hard and sweat was falling off her face. She was wondering if Trunks came by Mr. Popo's place. But quickly dissmissed the thought and went back training. Trunks on the otherhand was wondering where she went. He couldn't sense her ki anywhere and was a bit worried. She could have gotten killed or badly injured.... so he went up to Kami's (Mr. Popo, too) place. They said that they never saw her but Trunks noticed that the door of the time chamber was LOCKED. He asked who was in there and they didn't reply. "Shiroke had to be in there," he thought. But why? There is not reason to. So he minded his own business and left. Shiroke was relieved..... Trunks never opened the door. 2 days later(outside the room of time and spirit) Shiroke took her first step outside the Time chamber. Everything was the same except her saiyan armor and ki. She went into her tote bag and grabbed her spare clothes, which she quickly changed into in the bathroom. She then headed back to earth. Trunks who saw her instantly asked where she went... she explained that she went in the Room of Time and Spirit. She wanted to be a Z fighter, she told him, and sparred with him. Trunks was shocked.....her ki was almost as strong as Vegeta's! Vegeta who saw this found out became instantly angry she was as strong as him. She mostly used Psychic attacks now and found them more powerful. She changed alot, even Bulma noticed. She trained under 350x gravity instead of 34x. She also trained constantly and practiced targets. She even wore her saiyan outfit all around the house like Vegeta before he wore his "BADMAN" shirt. Shiroke was taller than Bulma too! Just slightly. 7:30 am-the next day- Shiroke panicked and ran outside! OH NO! Trunks and Vegeta was in the gravity room(it was a first come,first served basis)! So she just played with Kaloki and taught him some tricks. Finally, when they came out of the gravity room, which seemed like forever(they stayed in there for 7 hours), Shiroke rushed in. But she found that it was broken...... by a huge ki blast........ who would be so stupid to do a ki blast when sparring in the gravity room? Vegeta. Instantly mad, she did a powerful ki blast which sent Vegeta flying 10 yards away who was very suprised. Then she went calmly in the house and asked Bulma if she could fix the gravity room or make another one for her only. Bulma agreed to make another one for Shiroke only which was more powerful than Vegeta's. Vegeta on the other hand, was jelous,"Why should she get a better gravity room then me, the prince of all saiyans??!" He didn't say anything but did make the gravity higher. Finally, after a long time, Shiroke finally got to help the Z fighters. Besides being the only female Z fighter, she was also the one with psyhic attacks. She could freeze a opponent in the tracks but not very long, but long enough so the rest of the fighters could do a fair or serious amount of harm. Vegeta was not happy at all! "Why should a female be a Z fighter?! NEVER in the history of saiyans was a female allowed to fight or could fight! ", Vegeta thought to himself. She did like fighting but was also the first one to get picked on by a opponent. They always said that she wasn't worthy of fighting them.. but she never listened to them. Perhaps it was the thought of when Trunks trained her.... or maybe something else. True she was considered to be a friend to Trunks but, could she be closer to Trunks??? She wondered alot of times, but thought "no way" after. Daydreaming was a habit of hers soon after. Just daydreaming about Trunks, she tried to not having the thought of thinking of him. She had to have control... she couldn't stand it! Every time she looked at him, she thought she was going to end up like the food Vegeta made when Bulma wouldn't cook for him ( sorry Vegeta!), a bubbling substance of who-knows-what ingredients.There was times Bulma used to tell her sometimes about how Vegeta and her found that they loved each other. Well.. Vegeta only shown that rarely. She had the feeling Bulma was up to something...... but never questioned Bulma. She tried to keep her mouth quit from saying stupid things, especially in her sleep. She put a tape recorder by her bed, and the next day, she heard herself saying things about Trunks in her sleep!! She hoped Trunks never heard that... even though she did lock the door at night. Since two saiyans(besides her) were in the house, their hearing was amazing... they could hear a pin drop yards away if they listened closely. Luckily, saiyans could sleep pretty soundly in their sleep. There are very few things that can wake a saiyan up, if happening to be in a deep slumber, up! She tried to keep her mouth shut at night or when she was sleeping by putting tape on her mouth or a mouth guard. They were ok... but there was muffled sounds coming out from her mouth. Overall, they were her solution to her problem. This worked well until one night. Bulma was working in her laboratory and passed by Shiroke's room and heard noises. Afraid that Shiroke was hurt, unlocked the door(with a key) and saw Shiroke mumbling something in her sleep. When Bulma looked closer, she saw the tape on her mouth. When Bulma took the tape off her mouth(see saiyans can sleep deeply sometimes), she heard instantly what Shiroke was saying in her sleep. Bulma, obviously not suprised because she sensed that it was going to happen anyway, wanted to tell who else? Vegeta. But she decided to keep quit... as soon as she turned around.... Vegeta was right behind her. He had seen the whole thing and was listening to what Shiroke had said. "Pathetic girl thinking about the brat" , Vegeta said out loud. Shiroke was still not up. Vegeta had been training in the gravity room, Bulma remembered, he probably took a break to get something to eat. Bulma, who was obviously not in a very happy mood, told Vegeta NOT TO SAY A SINGLE WORD TO ANYONE ESPECIALLY TO TRUNKS! Vegeta, grinning, didn't reply but Bulma took it as a yes. Shiroke sensed something funny in the morning, she thought she had put the tape on her mouth but WHERE WAS IT??? She looked desperatly for it and found it in a trash can in her room. "Don't tell me I can sleepwalk too!", Shiroke thought to herself. IF someone had heard her, or took the tape off, HER SECREAT WOULD BE REVEALED. She prayed to herself that Trunks never heard it or took the tape off. At breakfast, Bulma was unusually quiet, while Vegeta kept looking at Shiroke. On the other hand, Trunks couldn't figure it out too, it wasn' a holiday or anyone he knew birthday. Trunks was still puzzled. He expected his parents to get in a fight at breakfast like they always had. Using her telepathic ability, Shiroke askedTrunks that if he knew why his parents had a funny grin/smile on their face. Trunks obviously not used to getting telepathic messages responded that he didn't know what was going on. Chapter 5 . |
