Folks, here it is.
The first bit of my new FF. Please don't be so sad if it doesn't get very long. It's just the introduction. And I beg your pardon a thousand times for breaking off "Sherlock Goku and the Mute House" at short notice. And now I wish you all a lot of fun!

Shadow of Death Introduction
The spaceship floated smoothly through space. Every now and then comets flew past him and the stars glittered mysteriously towards him. You could clearly see the individual planets if you looked closely. The whole universe was peaceful.No enemy spaceship in sight, no meteoride threatening to destroy it, no black hole ready to devour it and no planet in sight the spaceship was headed for. It just shot slowly through the vastness of space and left a long trail of smoke. It was rustling, but it was so quiet that you actually didn't even notice it. Everything seemed so peaceful, like a little idyll and yet the occupants of this spaceship were just less happy or delighted.
Amber stood silently at the window and looked out. There were a few things going on in her head. She was afraid. Afraid of what to expect in about 2 1/2 weeks. At exactly this time they would arrive on a planet where pure chaos reigned. On the planet where their people were oppressed. On the planet that had the worst nightmare in the galaxy. A terrible monster would be waiting for her and she would certainly not be pleased with her visit. Nobody knew what he looked like.Maybe he or it wasn't even a human or a demon. But surely he / it was a dark shadow whose power and cruelty it laid over the whole planet. A phantom, a myth, a terrible legend that was about to come true.
She sighed softly and then finally turned to her brother, who had dozed off in his chair. His arm hung limply from the backrest and a bit of his tousled hair peeked out from the side. His upper body rose and fell evenly with every breath. In front of him was a desk with various buttons that flashed evenly in time. The autopilot was on and the flight route was clearly displayed on the small screen.
In the end, Amber went to her brother and watched him sleep. How quiet he was lying there. Like a little baby His features were completely relaxed. How do you think he would react when they faced their enemies? He had described his imprisonment as the worst years of his life.Humiliated, bossed around, enslaved and despised. The pure hatred rose in him when he thought of the past time. Nothing but cruelty had befallen him in his life.
Amber turned away from him and sat in the other armchair, which was about three feet away, next to her brother's. She looked at the small screen and occupied herself with the display of the flight route. According to this, they would have to pass a planet in an hour that was almost blocking their route. Amber leaned back wearily and closed her eyes. She noticed the constant slight shaking of the space capsule and heard the gentle rustling from the rear. Soon she, like her brother, nodded off and was slumbering peacefully.
The spaceship crossed space at a breathtaking speed and covered enormous distances. It almost shredded the weightless air of the vast space and made its way through the countless stars.
While on earth:
The sun shone happily on the blue planet. It was warm, downright hot, but the living beings insisted on enjoying the beautiful weather. The birds flew happily through the clear blue sky and the small rodents ran through the woods collecting their nuts. It had never been so calm and peaceful on earth. The whole planet seemed to be radiating that. The meadows have never been so green. The flowers have never shone in so many different colors. The water has never been so clear and fresh and splashed in the river beds with soothing noises.
Our friends did not miss this opportunity either and were busy outside. Son-Goku and his wife ChiChi were in the garden, making themselves comfortable on well-padded deck chairs. Gohan had set out into the garden of the adjoining house and was busily studying his documents.During this time, Videl played with her little daughter Pan, who kept her busy. Instead, Piccolo had gone to the mountains to meditate. Kuririn was lying on the turtle island in a deck chair and let himself sizzle and the master of the turtles lay next to him and leafed through his collection of booklets like mad that the blood shot out of his nose. Yamcha was walking around town with an ice cream in hand picking up girls, chatting at each one and flexing his muscles when he saw one. Meanwhile, 18 was at home with her daughter Marron and swam a few laps in the large pool. Bulma shooed all the little animals out of the garden and Bra looked at the flower beds, which shone so brightly. Son-Goten was visiting the Briefs and together with Trunks they both fought Vegeta. It blocked every blow and made the two boys sweat a lot. It had been three days since Amber had left and everything went on as usual.The mood among our friends was more relaxed than it has been in a long time.
"Watch out, Goten!" Shouted Trunks and Son-Goten could just avoid a frontal punch from Vegeta. But Trunks got a kick in the stomach area as a bill for his brief inattentiveness and flew back a few meters and landed on his bum. He quickly got up again because his father came flying towards him with a monkey tooth. In time he jumped away and Vegeta crashed into the ground and left a gaping hole. Son-Goten and Trunks grinned and stood next to each other in a defensive position. They hadn't had such a funny fight for a long time. At first they had moaned because it was so warm and they actually didn't feel like fighting, but Vegeta had explicitly requested it and so far it had been quite good.
At the same time they both blocked the blow from Trunks father and pounced on him. Vegeta took a couple of hefty blows from the two of them and lay panting on the floor for a while.After all, he wasn't the youngest anymore. But he quickly got up again and countered hard. Trunks and Goths were pressed to the ground, panting for air. Vegeta had her firmly under control and the two of them were slowly but surely running out of air. Bulma, who had chased away all the little animals, and Bra, who no longer liked the flowers, watched the three fighters with admiring glances.
Trunks and Goths mobilized their energy and all of a sudden Vegeta was thrown backwards. He rolled a few times on the floor and then sat up in surprise. But there was no time to think about it, because the two shot many small but effective energy balls at him. After it had cracked like hell and the cloud of smoke had cleared, Vegeta was still standing upright. He grinned underhandedly at his son and his friend and unceremoniously threw them both to the ground with two blows.The fight was over and the two boys struggled to straighten up again. Exhaustion was written on both of their faces and they wiped the sweat from their foreheads.
So life went on for the next few days and also for the next few weeks. Amber and her brother looked forward to the terrible event more and more with fear, but our friends on earth enjoyed the peace and harmony. Trunks and Son-Goten, but also the others, had often thought of the two in the space capsule, but they weren't too worried. After all, they were pretty strong and rown-hauwn shouldn't be underestimated that easily. And so the three weeks passed quickly. Way too fast...........
The spaceship whizzed across space. On course for a planet. From a distance it looked unfriendly and exuded a dark power. Its light to dark brown color and the light haze caused eerie shadow play.Amber and her brother each stood in front of a window and strained to look out. Rown-hauw's expression darkened and he mumbled, rather growled, incomprehensible words. Amber was trembling all over. She had never been so restless before anything, but this time it was really bad.
"Ten minutes until we arrive!" Said an electronic voice, making the two of them flinch. Only ten minutes left, so. The planet came closer and closer and the dark auras of the round star became stronger and stronger.
"Afraid?", Rown-hauw asked his sister and she just nodded silently. Silently she continued to look outside and put her hand on the window pane. Soon the time had come. A few more minutes and they would find the worst place of their lives.
"Five minutes until we arrive!" Said the electronic voice again and both of them looked serious. Was it really that bad there? What if they couldn't? Would they perish and be enslaved as much as their people?Then what would they do?
"Two minutes to go! Please be ready!"
Amber and Rown-hauw went to their seats, sat down, and buckled up. A few drops of sweat ran down Amber's forehead and dripped onto her hand, which had clung convulsively into the backrest. Rown-hauw said nothing. He just stared in silence, lost in thought.
Suddenly it jerked heavily. The two were really shaken and heard a loud rustling. The spaceship shot through the bright fog, which then oozed away on both sides.
"Take care when landing!"
It happened very quickly. The space capsule slammed onto the planet, shaking the ground. There they were, on that goddamn mess. Amber and Rown-hauw sat a little longer before unbuckling their seat belts and getting up from their chairs. Both stood behind the
