As the days passed, Rikku got more and more accustomed to the Earthlings' way of living, and she enjoyed every day of her stay with Goku. Her relationship with him also prospered, and soon, his friends knew what was going on between them. They were happy for him though, because they had all seen what he had been through when his family was cruelly taken from him by fate and death years ago. He deserved to be happy after all those pain that he had to endure. And Rikku is not a bad catch either. Sure, she may be an alien, but she had already proven herself worthy of all their trusts. She was kind and nice, and she even helped them when they got injured from their training because she had the power to heal wounds and restore people's energy just by touching the person, much like Dende.
Actually, it was Goku who was the first to discover this power of hers. He went home one day from training and Rikku saw that he got wounded; there was a cut on his upper arm. It isn't really a mortal wound, and Goku told her not to mind it, but she insisted on seeing the wound. She touched his affected arm and he saw white light emanate from her hands while at the same time her touch felt warm. When she let go of his arm, he was surprised to see that the wound is no longer there, and that's when she explained to him that she had the power to heal and restore energies of people or of any living thing, however there was a limit to this. She could not use her powers on herself, which also explained why she was all wounded and bloodied up when Goku first found her.
Since then, she frequently joined Goku whenever he would go train with Vegeta at Capsule Corp, or with his other friends in different places. She helped them by restoring their energies whenever they would get worn out from training, and on some occasions, she healed them whenever they sustained wounds. Sometimes, she also trained with them, and they were even more amazed when they all learned that she knew how to fight and defend herself, though she isn't really as strong as the Saiyans. They all continued to prepare for the lurking threat, and as time passed, each and everyone of them had gotten stronger, especially the Saiyans.
That particular morning, Bulma had taken Rikku with her on her shopping while Goku and Vegeta trained in the gravity room. While Bulma chatted animatedly as she picked some clothes, Rikku just smiled at her and nodded as a reply. She is really not feeling well these past few days, and it gets worse during mornings. Sometimes, she would even throw up even if she hasn't eaten anything yet. She had also lost a lot of weight since she didn't have any appetite for any food. Just the mere thought of eating makes her sick.
"Rikku? Are you ok? Do you want something?" Bulma called out to the girl.
Rikku shook her head. "Yeah.. I'm ok.. Just a little dizzy.." She answered and tried to smile.
"Well, let me just pay for this so we can go home." Bulma said as she proceeded to the counter to pay for the dress she chose. Once she was done, she gently pulled Rikku along and they walked towards the mall carpark to retrieve their car.
Everything seemed to worsen when they were already headed for home. Even if Bulma was a very careful driver, Rikku felt her head spinning and her sight blurring. She wished that they would reach Capsule Corp soon so she could rest for a while.
Rikku felt thankful when they reached Capsule Corp at last. She opened the door to her side gently and got out of the car. As she stood, her head started spinning again and her knees started buckling. She gripped on the car door tightly while trying not to lose her balance.
"Are you ok?" Bulma asked her when she noticed that the girl seemed as if she would fall.
"Yes.. Come on." Rikku said as she struggled to walk. Her condition was starting to get worse as they neared the building. It also didn't help that the sun was too hot that day.
They entered Capsule Corp just in time to see Goku, Vegeta and Trunks walking towards the dining room. 'They must have finished their training early', Rikku thought to herself.
"Back so soon, Mom?" Trunks asked. He wasn't used to his mother returning in such a short time whenever she went shopping.
"Yes. Rikku is not feeling well.." Bulma answered as she looked at Rikku, who by now looked noticeably pale than usual.
Goku approached them. He eyed the girl with concern. "You look pale.. Have you eaten already?" He asked her.
Rikku started to speak but as she looked at Goku, everything suddenly became blurry. Then she felt her knees giving way and she fell on the carpeted floor. The last thing she remembered was a pair of strong arms holding her which prevented her from hitting the floor. Then everything went totally black.
