Dragon Ball TC
Chapter Eight
The doorbell rang. Too excited to calm down, Rini answered the door.
"Hi Rini. Are you ready?"
"Yeah!" The two shot off towards the movie theater to see the newest film in town.
********
Inside the theater, Rini and Trunks sat in the back row. They were all alone, besides a few people. Trunks started to kiss Rini.
"Trunks, stop it... There are people in here..." She said.
"Who cares, let’s just pretend it’s only us..." He leaned over towards Rini, causing her to bend back. Unfortunately, Rini brought her sword, and she knocked it over.
After it fell, it made a very loud banging noise. Everyone in the theater looked at them. Trunks was still frozen in his recent position, just like Rini.
Trunks and Rini felt an extremely high power level begin to surface.
"TRUNKS! WHAT IN DENDE’S NAME ARE YOU DOING TO MY DAUGHTER?!?"
"Shit..." He said. It was Yamcha. He was in the theater with his *new* girlfriend, Candy, the soon-to-be mother of Rini.
"We were enjoying the feature film together." Said Trunks casually. Another dangerously high power level came forth.
"TRUNKS! I TOLD YOU TO NEVER SEE THAT GIRL AGAIN!!!" This time, it was Vegeta and Bulma, who were at the theater with Yamcha and Candy, on a kind of double-date that Bulma set up.
"Dad, you don’t understand!" They yelled, synchronized. Trunks and Rini blasted the roof open and flew outside. The fathers quickly followed, close on their trail.
"Trunks, if you do not get away from that brat this instant, you will have to face the consequences!" Trunks grabbed Rini and didn’t let go.
"No!"
Yamcha came zooming by, quickly taking Rini out of the reach of Trunks.
"Rini!"
"Trunks!" Rini tried to wriggle from Yamcha’s grasp, but no luck. "Dad, let go!"
"Big Bang!" Vegeta fired, and Trunks fell to the ground, just like a boulder falling off of a mountain.
"TRUNKS!!" Rini kicked Yamcha and flew over to Trunks. His breathing was in short gasps.
"Trunks..." She turned to Vegeta. "You did this to your own son?!" She screamed. Vegeta nodded, with a glint in his eye.
"I’ll teach you to beat up my boyfriend! PINK HEART SHOCK!!!" Vegeta was barely phased.
Rini glared at him, and then she became a Level Two Super Saiyan again. Yamcha was shocked to see this.
"Leave him alone! He can do whatever he wants! Kaio-Ken times three!!" Then, Rini put her wrists together. "Kaaa... Meee... Haaa... Meee... HAAAAAAAAA!!!" The brightest beam of light and energy was shot at Vegeta in an angry rage.
"Is that the best you can do, weakling?" Vegeta flew up into the air. He started yelling, very loudly, at that, with debris flying everywhere. After a couple of minutes, he stopped yelling.
"FINAL FLASH!"
Rini screamed after being hit and plummeted towards the ground, maybe even to her death.
"Rini!" Trunks built up all of his energy and flew to where she was falling. He passed under her, catching her in the process. Yamcha yelled after them.
"Stay away from my daughter, Trunks! JUST STAY AWAY!"
"You’ll be safe now." He kissed her forehead and flew far away.
********
POOF! A house popped out of one of Trunks’ capsules.
"We can live here for a while." He said, setting her down on the couch. On the way over, she had fallen asleep.
"She’ll be hungry when she wakes up. Maybe I should cook something." Trunks walked over to the refrigerator, and pulled out a small packet, which contained a full meal. "Hmm... Add a few drops of water... And you’ll have an instant meal... Designed by Bulma Brief..." He said, reading the package. "There’s some ice cream in here, turkey, and a salad. I bet her figure will love her for eating this!" He opened the packet and set it on a plate. The water dropper was on the table, so he walked over to get it. Trunks filled the water dropper with water, and walked back over to the cube of food. Three drops dripped onto the food.
"There. Now I have to wait for... Two minutes. That’s not hard."
"What’s not hard?" Asked Rini in a sleepy voice.
"Nothing, just sleep for two more minutes."
"Okay..." She dozed off again.
********
"Rini... Wake u-up... Your dinner is ready." She woke up slowly at first, but when she heard the word ‘food,’ she got up more quickly.
She sat down at the table.
"We’ll have to live off of these until we can get some money to buy food with." He said, watching Rini scarf down the salad, turkey, and finally the ice cream.
"Not a problem." She said. "I’m done." She finished.
"Okay. I think you should go lay down." He said.
"All right..."v
Rini walked into the bedroom, and when she came out, she looked like she had something to say.
"Trunks, did you know that there is only one bed in this thing, and that it’s twin-sized?" He looked at her.
"Oh yeah... I forgot to grab a two person capsule. Sorry. Looks like we have to share."
"Umm, what about the couch?"
"What about it?"
"One of us could sleep on it."
"Why?"
"I don’t know, it was just a suggestion... But if you really want to share, then I guess I can deal with it..." She said, giving in. He was silently thinking in his head, ‘Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes!!’
"I’m going to bed now. How about you?" He thought about this for a second, then he yawned.
"Sure, I guess so..." She walked into the bedroom.
"Trunks, is there some other clothes I could borrow to sleep in?" He nodded and walked over to the dresser. Trunks pulled out a yellow Capsule Corp. tank-top. He also pulled out some very small jeans, and socks.
"Here." He tossed the clothes to her. She quickly ran into the bathroom and came back out, wearing the clothes. And she looked stunning, even for someone who was just going to be sleeping.
"Okay, do you want to get in first?"
"Sure." He took off his jacket and hung it up on the hanger, along with his blue scarf. Then he took off his shirt. Now, he was wearing his khaki shorts, plus navy blue socks. He took off his shoes and put them by the door. He finally got into the bed.
"Your turn." She got into the bed, and then hopped back out.
"You know, maybe sleeping out on the couch isn’t such a bad idea... How about I sleep on the floor, and you could stay in the bed?"
"Umm, okay, fine. Do you want this blanket?"
"Sure." He heaved it towards her, and she bent back under the impact.
"WHOA!" She said.
"Heh, sorry." He said. "I guess I don’t know my own strength."
"I can only imagine..."
********
"Okay, Yamcha, you check at the pond. I’ll go look for the kids in town. Vegeta, you just go where ever, and Candy, you can stay here and make phone calls to everyone in this book." Bulma said, setting a huge address book on the table.
"Noooooooooowwwww... GO!" Yamcha and Vegeta flew out the door, but Bulma walked. She pulled out a capsule and threw it, to reveal a motorcycle.
