Dragon ball Z/Sailor Moon fanfic. "Boy meets girls" By Julian Soullard (e-mail: jnsoullard@hotmail.com) Spell/grammar checked by Super Saiyan Zor (email: Zor_The_Man@hotmail.com) Warning: All characters from this fanfic are copy right from Akira Toriyama (Dragon ball Z) and Takeuchi Naoko (Sailor Moon) so don't sue me. Also worth noticing, this is my first fanfic and English isn't my native language (it's Spanish and French), so if you don't like it keep that in mind. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AND NOW ON WITH.... Chapter 2: The encounter! It was almost 6:00 AM but Trunks was already up doing some light warm up exercises before breakfast. He was planning on going to an electronic shop this morning. Some parts of the time machine were seriously damaged and he had no replacements for them, therefore the only thing he could do was hoping there were those kind of parts in Tokyo that he could purchase. Most electronic shops open around nine or ten o'clock but Trunks didn't want to waste any time by getting up late. Once he finished breakfast he got up ready to leave. It was now 7:00 AM. [I don't think any store will be open this soon.] he thought [I might as well jog down to Tokyo, It'll make some time till they open.] and then he left. A few moments later, down in Tokyo. "Aww man, I'm late for school!!" said Makoto [Man, that patrol last night was really a waste of time, not only that monster didn't show up but I went so late to bed that no wonder I overslept.] While thinking of how useless was yesterday's patrol, Makoto wasn't paying attention of the biker gang that she bumped into. "Hey! Watch it, girl!" said a guy with a black leather jacket. "Oh, sorry!" she said while still running. "Were do you think you're going?" asked another man standing in front of Makoto cutting her way through. "Hey, I already said I'm sorry! Now get out of my way, I'm late for school!" Makoto stated as she stopped running. "Well maybe we're not accepting your apologies, toots!" "What did you call me??" the tall brunette declared, obviously upset. "Wait a minute, I know this girl!" said a third biker "You're the one who put my bro in the hospital last month. You're gonna pay for that!!" "Listen, if you don't want to end up like your brother, move aside!" "Well aren't we in a hurry." pointed out the first biker pulling out a baseball bat. "Maybe we'll have to teach you some manners." declared the second pulling out a knife. "Unless you want to do us a little favor instead..." said the third looking at Makoto's dress with not so good intentions in mind. There were three bikers thirsty for blood (and other occasional things like sex) against one high school girl. But since they were dealing with Makoto, it would have been better for the bikers to find some more help. That would make things more even. Makoto was aware that she could take care of these punks in a couple of seconds. But just as the guy with the baseball bat was about to launch the first attack... "Why don't you try to fight a guy instead." said a voice behind them. The three bikers stopped there attack as they turned around to see who was talking to them. As they did, they saw a boy with lank purple hair wearing a blue jacket standing in front of them with his hands buried in his pockets. [Wow, he's gorgeous!!] Makoto thought. "Stay out of this, kid!" said the one with knife. "Why don't you try fighting me instead..." declared Trunks "That is unless... girls are the only thing you can deal with." "What did you say??" asked the guy with the bat "Maybe you're the one who needs a lesson!" The biker took his bat with both hands and swung it towards Trunks' head. He was quite surprised as Trunks stopped the blow with his bare hand and held the bat with an iron grasp. "Listen..." Trunks began him "You can get lost OR you can get hurt." The biker was still trying to release the bat from Trunks' grasp, not paying much attention to what his opponent was saying. Trunks knew he couldn't reason with him and decided to give him a swift kick in the stomach. The biker released the bat as he flew next to his friends. The other two bikers launched there attacks simultaneously, Trunks received them both, one with a punch in the face and the other with the baseball bat he just obtained. Both bikers went flat on there back. Once all of his opponents were on the ground Trunks dropped the bat and headed toward the girl who was being attacked. "Are you all right, miss?" he asked. Makoto was looking at him with her typical big dreamy eyes and was blushing. Trunks reminded her so much of a boyfriend she once had (what a coincidence!). "Y... yes, thank you for saving me. I don't know what those thugs would've done to me if you hadn't shown up." Makoto lied with a delicate voice. "Did they hurt you?" "N... Yes. It seems I twisted my ankle while you were fighting. I don't think I'll make it to school by my self..." she lied again trying to use an even more seductive voice this time. "Here, let me help you." said Trunks holding her by the arms "I'll take you to your school, which way is it?" On the way to school Makoto was grabbing Trunks' arm a little too tightly so that she would be able to *walk*. Trunks noticed that Makoto's face was extremely red. "Your face looks kinda red." Trunks pointed out "Are you feeling all right? Are you sick?" "No! Not at all!" she responded making a goofy smile "By the way, my name is Makoto Kino, what's yours?" "I'm Trunks." he said, then stopped walking as they reached the gate of Makoto's school "Is this your school?" "Yes, it is." "Well then, I'll be leaving now, you should go to the infirmary and get that ankle checked." "I will, and thanks again, I don't know how to repay you for what you did back there." "Don't mention it. Well, bye now." he said before leaving. Makoto saw him jogging down the street, she was STILL looking at him with big dreamy eyes and blushing. [Darn! I forgot to ask for his phone number.] she thought [Trunks? It's kind of a cute name. I'm really looking forward to see you again.] Makoto was already late for class, but she didn't care, something good came out of it. Later that day, at lunch time, Usagi, Ami and Makoto were sitting by the same tree they usually did during that time of the day. Usagi was eating like a pig (as always) while Ami was eating in a much more civilized way. Makoto on the other hand wasn't eating, she was lost in thought looking at the sky. "So, are you gonna tell us who he is, Mako-chan?" Usagi asked out of the blue. "Hun?? Wh...what are you talking about?" Makoto said confused. "Don't play with us! We know that look! It's about a boy isn't it?" Usagi declared with a devilish grin. "Well who is he?" Ami asked. "His name is Trunks and he has to be the cutest guy in the world!" Makoto answered "He's good looking, brave, and a real gentleman too, and..." "Hold it! Hold it! He can't possibly be cuter than my Mamo-chan!" Usagi interrupted "And what could make him so brave? Don't tell he saved you from the clutches of a certain death like a true prince charming?" "Well... as a matter of fact... he did." Makoto responded. "Wow, what *did* he do?" Ami asked. "On my way to school a gang of bikers tried to pick a fight with me." Makoto told them "Trunks showed up and beat the living crap out of them." "How romantic." said Usagi sarcastically unable to imagine what could Makoto see in someone that violent. "Do you mean you weren't able to handle those thugs?" Ami asked. "Of course I could've!" declared Makoto "It's just that... well... you don't often see a guy that comes out of nowhere to defend you these days. So I decided to let him fight for me, it felt kinda nice." Approximately at that same time, Trunks had visited several electronic shops. So far, he already went to ten different stores. He managed to buy some of the parts he needed but he still couldn't find the most important one. "Excuse me, sir?" said Trunks to one of the guys who worked there. "Yes? What can I do for you?" asked the salesman. "I was looking for a certain electronic adapter. I would like to know if you have it on sale." he answered. "What kind of adapter would that be?" he asked again. "It's like this one." Trunks said pulling out the adapter out of his jacket. The salesman took the device in his hand and looked at it a little intrigued. "This is certainly a very unusual piece." he claimed as he put it on the table "We usually don't sale this kind of adapters, they're mostly used in mechanical and computer industries." "Is there any way you could tell me where to find one?" Trunks asked "I need it badly." "Well... let me see." the guy responded as he took what appeared to be a catalog out of a shelf. After searching in a few pages he looked back at Trunks "I guess I could arrange it so that we get one on our next shipment. You'll have to pay in advance of course." "That's no problem." Trunks stated "When will you have it here?" "In about a month or so." "One MONTH???" he asked shocked "Why so much time?" "Well we already got our shipment this month." the man said "We have to wait for next month for our next shipment, that's how it is, do you still want to order the adapter?" "Yeah, how much is it anyway?" A few minutes later Trunks came out of the store while thinking about his new problem. [One month?] he repeated in his mind [Man, I can't believe I'll be stuck here for a month, what am I gonna do?] Trunks decided to take a walk at the park to clear his mind, It was 2:00 PM but he didn't feel hungry. On his way to the park, something cough his attention, it was some kind of show for kids with puppets. "Daddy, daddy, let's go see!!! Please!!!!" said a voice next to Trunks. "Okay son, just take it easy." said an older voice "You go and watch while I get us some ice cream." "Yeay!!" said the little boy as he went towards the show. He looked as the boy left his father. Trunks never had that kind of relationship with his father. Heck, Vejita died when he was too young to even remember him. The only thing he knew about him was what his mother and Gohan told him. Most of those stories didn't speak very well of him though. Still, growing up without a father had never been easy on him. Sure his mother was great. The greatest actually. But she wasn't his father. She was his mother. He had to admit he felt jealous of that little boy's happiness. Not far away, Usagi, Ami and Makoto were walking home as another day of school ended. "You got a 33 on your test?" Ami asked Usagi. "Ami, please don't throw it at my face, I'll have a hard time explaining it to my parents." she answered "How much did you get, Mako-chan?" Both Usagi and Ami noticed that Makoto wasn't listening, she was lost in thought. "Mako-chan!!!!" Usagi repeated. "Hun?? Wh... what? What is it?" she asked as she finally landed her feet on the ground. "You were thinking about that boy again, weren't you?" "Well... sort of..." she answered, Usagi sighed. "Mako-chan, you really shouldn't let a boy distract you like that." Ami told her "It isn't good for your school work [after all you did get a 47 on your test], and besides, you'll probably won't see that boy again. Do you know what are the odds of you two finding each other in a place as big as Tokyo..." "Look!" Makoto interrupted pointing to a crowd where Trunks was "It's him!" "So much for odds, Ami." Usagi teased. "I have to go and talk to him." Makoto said heading towards Trunks, Usagi and Ami followed her. Trunks was still lost in thought, he didn't noticed three girls approaching from behind. "Hi there!" said a voice next to Trunks. As he turned around he saw the girl who he saved (or at least that's what he thought) this morning, next to her were two other girls wearing a different school uniform in blue, one had short blue hair and the other one was a blond who had a more *original* hair style. "Oh... Hi." he finally said "You're the girl from this morning. Matoko, isn't that right?" "Hun... it's Makoto not Matoko." she said (still with a big smile on her face though) "Anyway I was just passing by when I saw you, I just wanted to thank you again for helping me with those bikers." "Don't mention it, you have nothing to thank me for." The blond girl nudge at Makoto "Well? Are you gonna introduce us to your cute little friend or not?" she asked. "Oh, sorry." she said, then addressed to Trunks "These are two of my best friends, this is Usagi Tsukino and this is Ami Mizuno. Girls, this is the guy I told you about at lunch." "Nice to meet you." Usagi said [He is kinda good looking.] she thought. "Nice to meet you too." Ami added "Mako-chan told us you helped her this morning, we wanted to thank you as well for what you did." "It was really no big deal." Trunks told her. "You're much too modest." Makoto stated "So tell us, are you a martial artist?" "Well... yeah, sort of." he answered. "Trunks is a real unusual name..." Ami said "Are you a foreigner?" "Uh... yeah that's right." he answered again. He was getting a little nervous that they asked him those sort of questions. "So what brings you to Japan?" Makoto asked "Family, friends... girlfriend?" "No, not really." he stated "I'm here by accident." "Really? Then allow us to guide you around while you're staying here." Usagi insisted "It's the least we can do for you helping out Mako-chan." "You really don't need to go through all that trouble, I'll be just fine." he said, getting more nervous by the time. "Oh but we insist!" Makoto told him as she got closer to him. Suddenly, at the puppet show a scream of terror was heard. Makoto, Ami, Usagi and Trunks turned around to see what was all the commotion about. A monster had appeared out of nowhere flying over the show, threatening all the spectators. It had a humanoid form, it was like a werewolf with the wings of a bat and the tail of a scorpion, his howls went deep inside the heart of the little children down below. He defiantly didn't form part of the show. Everybody was trying to run for safety, it was a total mayhem. "What is THAT???" Trunks shouted "Girls take cover!" Trunks took them by there shoulders and pulled them back to safety. [What are we gonna do?] Usagi thought [We can't transform if Trunks is around, but we can't let that thing hurt those people either.] "STOP!!!" shouted someone to the monster. As they all turned to see who was challenging the beast, they saw two girls dressed in sailor fukus with very revealing mini-skirts. One was dressed in red and had long black hair, the other was dressed in orange and had long blond hair held up with a red ribbon. "We can't allow you to hurt those people!" said the one in red. "How dare you ruin these innocent kids entertainment!" said the one in orange. "In the name of Mars..." shouted the one in red. "In the name of Venus..." shouted the one in orange. "WE SHALL PUNISH YOU!!!" shouted both making some strange Power Ranger moves. [Wh...what the heck is going on here?] Trunks thought [What's this freak show all about?] The monster immediately took interest in its new opponents and launched an attack. Meanwhile Trunks was still looking confused, not very sure what to do. "CRESCENT BEAM!" Sailor Venus shouted. A yellow energy beam came out of her index finger targeting the monster, the beam went strait towards it's opponent but missed. The werewolf dodge the attack which struck the support of a huge sign on top of a building instead. The sign started to twiddle. It was about to fall on a kid paralyzed with fear (because there's always some little brat who is paralyzed with fear when something is about to fall on him/her, it's one of those unbreakable laws of nature!). "That boy is going to get killed!" Ami shouted. "Stay here!" Trunks told them as he ran towards the kid. The crowd that was running away from the crash site didn't made it easy for Trunks to get to the boy, but by using his "more than human speed" he managed to grab the kid a few seconds before the sign hit the ground (just like in those Segal, Van Dam and Schwarzenegger movies where the hero looks VERY heroic). Trunks hit the ground with his shoulder avoiding to hurt the boy with the fall. Ami could have sworn she saw him fly for a moment, and at that same time Rei had that strange feeling again, as if some sort of energy was used for a short period of time. "Ami! Get your feet back on the ground! We have to transform while he's not looking!" Usagi told her. "Uh right!" she said. Trunks looked at the boy he saved, he was okay. When he got up, he noticed that three other girls, wearing the same sailor costume the first two did, joined the battle against the monster. The girls were attacking with lightning, fire and other particular powers. Although they managed to wound the creature, it was still fighting. Two cats (one was white, the other black) were standing near the fight but Trunks didn't thought that mattered. [I don't know if those girls can keep this up!] He thought [I have to do something, but I'll probably have to get serious with that monster, everyone will grow suspicious on me if I ki-blast that thing away. I can't blow out my cover, but I can't let them get killed either!] While Trunks was in the middle of a dilemma, the werewolf glared at Sailor Moon. "Uh oh... I don't like this." the senshi leader spoke. The creature flew against her delivering several blows which she hardly dodge while screaming "Wow! Hey hold it! Somebody help me! BWWAAAAAA!!!!". Unfortunately, by doing so, Sailor Moon put herself on a corner where she couldn't escape. Trunks was about to pull out the capsule where he kept his sword when suddenly a rose flew by wounding the werewolf's eye. The creature grabbed his face in pain which gave the opportunity to Sailor Moon to flee. Trunks turned his eyes to were the rose came from, he saw a man dressed in a black tuxedo wearing a top hat, a cape and a mask (Insert Tuxedo Kamen music >here<). "I don't know who you are or where you come from..." the man said "But I'm certainly not going to let you hurt my lovely Sailor Moon!!" "Tuxedo Kamen!" Sailor Moon said while making big eyes and blushing. "Don't waste any time." Tuxedo Kamen told her "Do it now!" "Right!" she said as she pulled out of nowhere a huge scepter with a big heart on top. After waving it a couple of thousand times she shouted "MOON PRINCESS HALATION" and a big blast struck the beast turning it into dust. "Well done, Sailor Moon." Tuxedo Kamen said "Take care." then he left. Trunks was still looking at the scene that just occurred, still not sure of what just happened. [Girls fighting in mini-skirts making silly poses????........A guy using flowers as weapons????.......What is this place????] he asked himself [What kind of freak show is this?????..........WHERE IN HELL AM I?????????] End of chapter 2. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author's notes: I forgot to specify when this story takes place in the Sailor Moon series. This fanfic takes place during Sailor Moon R right after Mamoru regained his memory but before Chibi-Usa made her appearance. That means that Usagi and Mamoru are still going steady and some of the Senshi's special attacks like VENUS LOVE ME CHAIN haven't appeared yet. I'll probably keep making notes at the end of the next chapters if I think I have to specify some other stuff about Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon or the fanfic. Until then.... See you in chapter 3...
