A/N: A bit extra for my other request... enjoy the fluff :D

...

Yui and Goku were out training in the forest, a few weeks passing since the two had met. The whole time she had stayed at the Son house, getting to know the young Saiyan and his grandfather as she enjoyed experiencing a somewhat normal life with them.

It seemed Goku enjoyed having her around as well, the boy often asking her to train or do something with him as they passed their days running around the forest and going on adventures. 

On this particular day the two were out and about like usual, sparring with one another as they ran through the trees. 

"Stay still!" Yui shouted, dashing behind the spiky haired boy as she struggled to keep up. He's fast... She thought, frowning as she realized he might be even faster if he was really trying. 

"You should catch up!" Goku teased, turning around and sticking his tongue out at the girl behind him before disappearing into the deep woods, furthering their little game of tag.

Yui ran as fast as she could through the trees, looking for any sign of her friend as she suddenly changed tactics. This wasn't the first time their game had gone from tag to hide and seek.

More like hide and scare Yui... The young girl thought, the tiniest grin sneaking across her face as she scanned the brush. I'm going to get him this time...

She continued to look around, the forest becoming eerily quiet as a strange feeling began to creep up inside of her. Usually he wouldn't keep her waiting so long she thought, starting to get nervous as she noticed a spot of blue on the ground not far away.

"Goku!" Yui shouted, dashing towards her friend's unconscious form before noticing the dart sticking out of his back. She pulled the object out, the Red Ribbon logo on it all too visible, making her eyes go wide for a second before a sharp pain struck her in the neck.

Yui reached up, yanking the dart out as fast as she could but already feeling drowsy as she collapsed on top of the Saiyan. 

A team of Red Ribbon officers exited the tree line, their leader talking into a microphone briefly as one of the other men went to pick Yui up.

"We have secured the target. Repeat, we have secured the target."

A helicopter sailed overhead a second later, picking the team up with her as well before taking off and leaving Goku behind...

...

A few hours later...

Goku awoke with a groan, sitting up and realizing it was dark as he wondered what had happened. It all came crashing back in an instant as he looked at the tranquilizer darts on the ground, frowning as he knew exactly who had taken you. 

But, he also knew exactly where to look...

It wasn't long before he was at the army's headquarters, remaining hidden among the trees as he waited for some of the guards to switch positions.

When only two soldiers remained, the Saiyan knew this was his best shot, launching himself forward and taking them both by surprise as he drew his weapon.

"What the- OOF!" The first guard shouted, his sentence cut off as Goku slapped him across the face with the power pole, knocking him out instantly. 

The second guard tried to raise his gun, not even making it half way towards aiming at the boy before he was knocked down as well. 

Goku dashed inside the base, running through the hallways as he looked around for any sign of you. 

Once around a corner, he saw a group of guards carrying someone as he threw himself out of sight just in time. He followed them closely, realizing it was Yui as he was able to trail them without their knowledge. 

Five of them... Goku frowned, gripping his staff tightly as he watched them toss you onto a table roughly. Easy...

"Hey!" One of the soldiers shouted, spotting the boy sneaking their way as everyone else jumped to attention. 

"Let her go!" The Saiyan yelled, dashing towards the leader of the group before punching him right in the stomach. 

The man doubled over, coughing up a bit of spit and blood while his comrades came to his aid. Goku wasted no time as he looked towards the enemy closest to where you lay, jumping into the air and flipping out of the way as one of the men started shooting.

The end of his staff came crashing down on his head, knocking him into the floor as the pistol flew out of his grasp. A quick 360 and another soldier was thrown back into the wall, his body slumping forward as he was quickly taken out of the fight.

"Shoot him! Shoot him!" One of the men cried, the sound of shots being fired making Yui stir a bit as she began to wake up. 

She groaned, pushing herself up on her elbows while looking around, suddenly finding a familiar blue gi blocking her vision. It was gone again in a flash, dashing forward before powering up a massive punch, sending the last two soldiers flying in different directions.

The leader of the group watched in horror, seeing some of his best men taken out easily by a child as he was still recovering from the boy's initial strike.

"Rrrr... Y-You... You!"

Before the man could say another word, Goku landed on his head, pushing his face into the floor tiles harshly before looking up at you and smiling innocently.

"Yui! Are you okay?" He asked, hopping off of the man before stepping towards you. "We should go home-"

"No... I can't."

Goku blinked as he watched you sitting on the table while looking away from him, not seeming like yourself at all as he saw the sad look in your eyes.

"Why not?" The Saiyan asked with a frown, taking another step forward as he saw his friend tense.

"I've only caused you trouble!" Yui shouted, making Goku's eyes widen as he listened. "Ever since you met me... I've been nothing but trouble..." She explained, her voice cracking as she felt a few tears slide down her cheeks. "They are never going to stop chasing me..."

Goku growled, the whole situation making him angry as he thought about how unfair it was that you couldn't have just had a simple life. 

"That doesn't matter!" He shouted, feeling his face heat up as he said something that was already a thought deep in his heart. "I'm strong... I can protect you Yui!" Goku promised, making a fist in front of himself as if to enforce his previous statement.

The determined look in his eyes made the girl smile, chasing away some of her worries as she thought maybe it could be true. Maybe they could protect each other...

Yui sniffed, wiping away the last of the tears before standing up on the table and looking towards Goku seriously.

"You promise?"

"I promise." He replied, staring at you seriously before smirking and holding his arms out.

Yui giggled, jumping off the table towards him as the Saiyan easily caught her, giving her a quick hug before setting her down. 

"Heh, let's go!" Goku stammered, rubbing the back of his head as his cheeks burned a bright pink color, the sight making Yui truly happy as she grinned back.

The two of you headed home as Yui let out a sigh of relief, knowing that Goku would protect her no matter what...
