Welcome to my new story. I never get tired of just throwing new ideas on paper. Well, on computer. You get the point. starting it off simple, with a couple chapters devoted to establishing my main character, Serenity. Drop a comment and tell me what you think. Favorite my story if you want updates, I write rather frequently. PM me if you want to collab, I've never done a collab before but I'm willing to give it a shot. I'm going to run this story all the way to the current DBS story, so its going to be a long project. I'll also be putting a bit more time into the story telling aspect, while still focusing on the fighting and action scenes. There will be an unlikely romance, so there is a little of that as well.

A loud buzz and a few beeps wake Serenity from her slumber. She yawns and the pod door opens, then her mother flings her arms around her and hugs her tightly

"Serenity, I'm so glad you are alive!"

Serenity giggles "Any reason I wouldn't be alive?"

Her mother holds her at arm's length "Sweetheart, you nearly died. Now, promise you won't freak out sweetheart… but… I had to take drastic measures to aide you."

Serenity frowns "Mom, what did you do?"

Her mom pats a chair and Serenity looks around the large lab, sighing softly. Her mom sits beside her "Sweetheart. You know how I told you that before you were born, I used to do work for questionable people?" Serenity nods and her mom puts a hand on her shoulder "I used to work as a scientist with the Red Ribbon Army. In fact, the attackers that nearly killed you were an old colleague of mine, Dr. Gero who made himself into a cyborg, and his android creation. So, I brought you to one of my old labs, and I… well…"

Serenity raises an eyebrow "What did you do mom?"

She smiles "Well, I used some cybernetic upgrades to keep you alive."

Serenity frowns "Mom… that's not right. You can't just play god and graft me with mechanical parts because you're afraid to let me go."

Her mom folds her arms "First of all, you're only 17. You have a full life to live! Second of all, this isn't just about me, or you. You should be sufficiently strong enough to defend the Earth from Dr. Gero's creations."

Serenity narrows her eyes "I don't know. I'm not really a fighter mom."

Her mom stands "Don't worry, I'll get you ready and trained to fight those monstrosities."

Serenity nods "I misjudged your intentions mom, you really did do this for the Earth, didn't you?"

Her mom hugs her "I won't lie. I don't like the idea of having you fight. I struggled for days, mulling the idea over in my head. I could just go home with you, and we can try to live a meaningful life. But in the end, eventually the fight would come to us. Besides, I just… want to save what is left. Since I began enhancing your body with cybernetic parts, another of his creations has wiped out many cities."

Serenity nods "Alright mom. I'll do it."

She smiles "Very good. I got you a gi, a sword and I'm going to run you through drills to help you get acquainted with your new abilities."

Serenity frowns "You know mom, just because I took a self-defense course and a little bit of kickboxing doesn't qualify me to save the planet."

Her mom sighs, exasperated "I know you are apprehensive, you just need to trust me, alright? It's going to be fine. You have a cybernetic chip in your brain that increases your brains processing speed far beyond superhuman levels, safely manipulating your brain wavelengths to increase your overall perception."

Serenity folds her arms "That sounds dangerous."

Her mother shakes her head "This chip's primary function is actually redundant, as you now have the ability to control and manipulate ki. This means that you can naturally process new information beyond superhuman levels. Also, use of ki allows you to reinforce your strength, increase your speed, allow you to fly, and grants you the ability to fire ki from your body. You can also sense other beings with ki"

Serenity goes wide eyed "That… actually sounds really awesome."

Her mother grins "The best part is that I programmed that chip with several different martial art styles, all of which you can access, giving your mind the ability to process any attack faster than the blink of an eye and formulate the best way to counter it using any of the many martial art styles you know. And since the chip does most the work, you can do so without actually thinking."

Serenity nods and her mother holds up a finger "Last but not least, you have a trump card. It's a kind of defensive mode, where your body channels your ki into your muscles, reinforcing them. You can channel it at will. It will also reinforce your skin, bones and internal organs with some of your ki, so that your body becomes significantly more durable. I call it your diamond form."

Serenity grins "I like this already. Sounds like you thought of everything mom."

Her mom smiles "I sure did. We need to move to the testing stage though. The Earth needs you, and soon. Otherwise, there won't be anything left to save."
