Being a former DBZ-obsessed freak, I have a few things to say...

First off:


"Everyone told me I was different. ‘Mother’ and ‘Father’ told me I was beautiful and that I was a blessing from Haji. Me? A blessing, I scoffed at the idea. I was different. The way I thought, the way I saw, the way I felt was always different, even physically I was different. I was beginning to understand the differences. I started questioning things. I started to wonder who, or what, was my family?

I began to think about the changes upon me. I had become a female. Yet no male would want me, my set husband would not want to reproduce."

Oh, boo hoo. Her family showers her with love and praise, and we're supposed to feel sorry for her because she feels different? Sorry, honey, but that's called "growing up". We all go through it at some point, we all feel different. I realize this girl isn't of the same species as the rest of her people, but *still*, it bothers me. And she had *become* a female? I know frogs and some species of fish do this, but still... If the author's going to introduce a new species into the DBZ universe, she should at least give some sort of description first. Watch, it'll happen when the Sakura Sue gives a lengthy description of herself later. It never fails.

"“Sakura,” ‘Mother’ paused. ‘Mother’ was choosing the words carefully. “It’s because you are not a true Dakeda.” “I knew that. I just want to know who my real-“I wanted to say ‘family’ but I did not want ‘Mother’ and ‘Father’ to think that I never thought of them as family. “We know, but you can not find the people like you.” ‘Father’ said. “Why?” I asked slowly. “B-because it-it has been-” tears were beginning to fall from ‘Father’s’ eyes, “The place where you were born has been destroyed by a comet!”"

Oooh, pet peeve, pet peeve, pet peeve. Not only is her paragraphing HORRIBLY wrong, the constant 'mother' and 'father' in apostrophes is distracting! Oh yeah, she thinks of them as family and yet she puts their parental titles in apostrophes. Reeeeeal believable.

"Then ‘HE’ saw me. ‘HE’ was evil. Then ‘HE’ walked up to me. I detested ‘HIM’. Detested was not the word. Hate did not even amount to how much I disliked ‘HIM’. No word could amount to how much I loathed ‘HIM’. “Sakura, what is wrong?” ’HE’ asked charm fully. ‘Mother’ never saw ‘HIS’ evil, ‘HE’ only showed ‘HIS’ anger when we were alone. “Miss Cosa, may I speak to Sakura alone?” ‘HE’ asked innocently. “Sure.” ‘Mother’ answered. My head was spinning. Why was this happening to me? No, this is not possible. Then my worst fears were confirmed. ‘Mother’ left me alone with this MONSTER."

Oh yeah, like she had to stick with this guy. Like she couldn't have just walked off or said, "No, 'Mom', I don't like him!" Uh-huh. Excuses, excuses. Also, this guy walks up and forces himself on her, and then lets her go like that? No explanation? Nothing? I guess I should be grateful. After all, it could have turned into a lousy rape scene, like we've seen so often.

"After ‘HE’ let me go, I ran away. I ran as fast and as far as I could. I just kept running. The buildings blurred past me."

This is the second time she's run until everything turned blurry. I know ANavyBrat likened her to Superman because of her tragic planet accident, but I'm leaning more towards the Flash.

"Swish...swish...swish.

I started to panic. My heart beat faster. I tried to speak, however, I couldn’t.

“It’s alright.” A soothing voice spoke to me. At least, I thought it did. Was this all a dream? I felt someone pick me up. Did they? For some reason unbeknownst to me, I calmed. My heart was not so fast and I felt safe in these arms. I felt, secure. Then without warning I was lighter. Was this person flying? I had heard of such legends, but where they really true?

Who was this male? My body tensed when I realized that I was in the arms of a ...male. Was it ‘HIM’? It didn’t sound like ‘HIM’. I desperately tried to escape. I felt this male’s hand reach behind my neck. I suddenly felt tired. I felt warm. I felt as though I was vanishing. Slowly ceasing to exist."

Uh, he's not a male. And he's definitely not "swishy", or whatever she was trying to imply. And of course, soon will come the wonderful OOC Piccolo romance (even though Piccolo doesn't even have a *gender* and so would definitely have no interest in this chick). How much you wanna bet he'll end wanting to train her ('cuz she's so SPESHUL and talented!) and they'll bond out in the desert? Bets? Anyone?
