Fanfic: Coming Alive

Chapter: Inner energies

And again a few months have passed. You'd think that something was being purposely put on me to prevent me from writing any further.
So, it goes on to Chapter 6. It would also be nice if someone could write me comments so I know who else might be interested in my story. Nonetheless, I will continue to tell. There are just things that you shouldn't withhold from anyone.


Inner energies

Now I was a bit confused. What was there to do?
Again Goku led me to a somewhat quieter place, this time not followed by the others.
We came to a place surrounded by large boulders, he sat down on the ground and motioned me to do the same.
Looking me straight in the eye, he said, "Well, we now know that you can fight. But you are still missing something important."
'Experience? Talent? ... '
"You can't fly!"
'What...'
"But I'm just a normal me ..""No, you are not. And I'm definitely not the first to tell you that. Where are you from?"
'Again that one question that I couldn't answer. I'm starting to be taken for a complete traitor. '
"I ... can't say that. Not yet."
However, to my great surprise, he did not ask any further questions, but he gave me one more penetrating look.
"Well, like I said. You can't fly, but we'll change that. Take care, sit down like me and fold your hands in your lap."
And finally it dawned on me what he was up to. At that moment, that heartbeat began again that came from the excitement.
"Everyone has an inner power. But not everyone knows how to recognize it, let alone how to control it. This power also enables us to fly. We call it that .."
"..Fludium!"
'Bingo. And gossiped again. '
A smile bordering on mischievousness crept onto his face."I thought you.."
"Trunks talked about it briefly!"
He could tell that he saw through the lie. Why was nobody skeptical, even angry, if I didn't know a conclusive answer to anything ?!
"Oh, well then. As I said, in order to use the Fludium effectively, you first have to recognize it in yourself. It's not that easy. You have to have self-control, calmness and determination. Close your eyes and try your inner strength Try to concentrate on them. Not convulsively, not exerting, but calmly but still determined. You will feel them if you do it right. "
To be honest, I had tried this procedure before as a young child. Back when you thought there really was this impressive world somewhere. Oh wait ...
So I tried to imagine a light. A light that illuminates my entire body from within.
And suddenly I felt something. A warmth that seemed to flood me completely and had a burning core.I tried to get closer to this core, to explore it internally. A wave shot through my body like an impulse and this tremendous energy manifested itself in my clasped hands.
I opened my eyes and couldn't believe it. The whole thing couldn't have lasted more than 1 minute and I had already discovered the fludium in me.
You could tell that Goku was thinking pretty much the same thing.
"... O-okay, that went quickly. Well, then we come straight to the next one, flying.
When one rises to heaven, one must free oneself from all burdens. Get rid of all worries and negative thoughts and it will work by itself. "
'I recently slipped into a completely strange world and my other life wasn't the best either. I should free myself from all worries ?! ... '
As expected, this lesson didn't go too well. As much as I tried to relax, it just didn't work out.
After half an hour, it seemed to me, and a few encouraging comments from Goku, I had to take a deep breath out of sheer disappointment.At the same moment a breeze blew over and the smell of lilies rose to my nose. A pleasant feeling spread in my stomach area, my thoughts seemed literally to become easier and I closed my eyes.
Only a moment later I no longer felt the ground beneath me and I was amazed to see that the ground was actually a few meters from my feet.
"Well, please, it works. I would have been surprised if you hadn't packed it. Very well done."
“Thank you!” With pride at these words, I seemed to float a little higher.
About another hour SonGoku showed me how to control my trajectory and fly a little faster, then we went back to the others.

When we got back to the house everyone was kind of busy.
Bulma and ChiChi drank coffee and talked, Muten Roshi lay as usual in a sun chair and read booklets of a somewhat questionable level, Piccolo meditated again and the others played badminton.Somehow I was amused by the sight of Vegeta, who sat sullenly in the grass and scowled at the others as they played laughing and joking.
However, I did not let that stop me from joining them and doing a few laps.
It was just an unforgettable day and I still remember how disappointed I was when the sun was slowly going down and Bulma noted that it was slowly time to fly home.
At the end, however, she also made the suggestion to take another group photo as a memento, since you never know when you will meet again.
"Come on, stand up!"
Somehow I felt out of place at the moment and stayed in the background, a little off the wall.
"Come on, Ryo, come on. You have to go on it too!", SonGoku shouted.
A little embarrassed but overjoyed, I ran to the smiling crowd and Goku immediately put his arm around my shoulder like a friend.
Between him and Bra I tried to put on a not too overwhelmed grin and waited until Bulma pressed the self-timer."Okay, then say 'Cheese!'"
That wasn't particularly difficult for me, because for some reason an image immediately popped into my head how Vegeta had to look now.
When the photo was taken, the crowd dispersed again and I took the opportunity to ask Bulma something.
"Miss Briefs, erm, Bulma. Can I have a copy of the photo?"
Suddenly she had a strange look on her face. A mixture of compassion and understanding.
"Of course. As soon as we get home, I'll get to work."
Now the big goodbye began. Everyone hugged or shook hands. I enjoyed every handshake that followed a smile.
"Well then, Ryo, see you.", Goku said with a wink.
“Yes, I'm sure of that.” This time it was Piccolo who spoke and I was a little surprised.

Back at Capsule Corp. , my first destination was the kitchen. You followed by Trunks and Vegeta, I headed for the refrigerator and there was a small fight over the chicken legs."Men, always only think of the one ...", came Bulma's voice from the kitchen table. She was sitting there with Bra and having a cappuccino.
"If you are so voracious, then tomorrow you can go shopping in town for a moment, because you've cleaned up almost all of your supplies."
Vegeta slipped the club out of his mouth at these words. I could imagine what was coming next ...
"Whaa? I'm supposed to go shopping? That's your job, you're the woman in the house. I have better things to do than run into town like a pissed off Earthling and get food because he's too cowardly for his wife the MEI....".
At about this point it was clear to everyone that Vegeta was conjuring up a moderate disaster. But contrary to expectations, Bulma remained calm.
"Well, honey, then you can get along with the pickles in the cellar, because I definitely won't go shopping, I have something to do in the laboratory."
This sentence had an impact. Obviously humiliated, the idea of ​​a lunch consisting of nothing but vegetables had brought his mind to reason a little ... whether voluntary, was of course questionable.Admittedly, I wasn't exactly happy to go shopping with Vegeta either ...
Well, it was the least I could do, after all, I really didn't have any expenses here and lived better than ever.
So I went about my dinner, or rather midnight snack, and talked a little with Bra and her mother. At least as good as it was between the constant chewing.
Eventually Trunks and I went upstairs together to shower one at a time. The sweaty activities of the day showed their effects after all.
When I came out first, I was still very warm. No wonder, unfortunately we often miss a summer like this ...
So I made my way to my room, threw my shirt on the bed and opened the balcony door to look a little at the moon and review the day again. I still couldn't believe it.I had met Goku and all the others, and it almost looked like we were going to become real friends. Besides, I hadn't done too badly in the fight with Goku. Mentally searching for a reason for it, I wandered back to the night I landed in this world. Even now, so soon after, that moment seemed far in the past. As if this was a completely different life. I noticed something else now. The whole time I hadn't had any cravings for a cigarette, even though I was originally a relatively heavy smoker.
'Still,' I thought. 'I have to find out how I ended up here. And most of all, why. Can I go back? 'So my gaze wandered over the full moon framed by glittering stars and tried for the first time to find a reason why I had come here.
Suddenly I noticed movement behind me and when I turned around I noticed something else as well.Namely Bra, dressed only in a silk nightgown. She was standing there in the middle of the room and looking at me a little steadfastly. Now I also noticed that this wasn't my room at all. There were posters of any bands and male models on the wall and a small dresser was opposite the bed.
Sure thing, I took a wrong turn in some corridor again ...
"Oh ... I'm sorry, I got lost again. Thought that was my room ...".
"You weren't that wrong, your room is one door down, right next to mine."
At these words a slight blush crept up her cheeks again.
"Oh good..."
Well? Honestly, what the hell was I thinking when I heard that word ?! I don't think anything.
"Okay, I'll go over there, I'm pretty tired. No wonder, considering who I messed with," I said with a smile.
"Sleep well," she replied simply, but with the warmest smile I had ever seen.“You too.” With that, I walked past her out
