Back in that damned chamber again, Kay’s bottom lip stuck out in a pout as she looked up at Nana Ban with a look of resignation on those childish features. Why did they have to do this again? “Come on, Birdie, we have to keep up with your training,” Nana said not unkindly. Now, more than ever, it was important to train and impress all those fancy people on Vegeta Pin told her about. She was going to meeting some important people - even Nana had been impressed with her new, half-brother’s connections. Instead of arguing, Kay assumed a fighting stance and watched as Nana did the same.
The moment the higher than she was used to gravity force kicked in, all forty pounds of her struggled to stay upright - a struggle she lost as she almost crumpled to the floor. Thus far, she’d managed to more or less keep her footing, but it got more difficult each time they added to the chamber’s pull. Wild, wide, dark eyes stared up at Nana wondering how she was able to remain so steadfastly on her feet and remembered Nana had done this before. The older Saiyan offered Kay-El a hand up but she half breed refused, webbed fingers splayed against the floor as she slowly pushed her own way back up.
After that each step felt like slogging through tar made of air trying to trap her feet whenever they made contact with the floor. The two sparred, Kay-El ducking under the blows she saw coming - the two did this often enough that she was beginning to learn Nana’s move set by heart. And then the woman did something else, something new, as she grabbed Kay-El’s tail and her whole body froze. Her heart pounded in her chest as she flashed back to Shikk when Pea used to do that all of the time. Her whole body froze, paralyzed by more than just fear, and she screamed. Nana let go and said, “We should work on that…there is a way to master your training so you’ll be free of that weakness.”
And so the two spent the better part of the next hour trying to figure that out.
Having skipped breakfast to train, the now hungry, irritated, tired girl looked up at Nana almost dejectedly, aiming a punch at the woman’s chest. A fierce determination burned bright in those eyes and she screamed, “I just can’t do it!” before her fist slid through open air, Nana dodging the clumsy attack almost effortlessly. Kay-El turned, a foot reaching out behind her to kick her stupid Nanny in the head - and that’s when she realized Nana was smiling with one hand on her tail.
