Chapter Six: In Dreams…
-
Bulma entered something into the computer. It beeped lightly and than quit. She shook her head angrily at it.
"Damn you!" She said, ready to grab the wrench that was by her wrist and smash the computer into tiny pieces. She was about to do just that when she decided to try something one more time.
She growled softly under her breath. This had better work! She thought to herself silently. She typed for a few minutes and than once again pressed 'enter'. She took her hands away from the keyboard and watched at the computer took in the information. She bit the inside of her lip lightly, watching the scale on the side that showed how much it was powered up. It was nearly at the half way mark, where it would always stop. She felt herself crossing her fingers, something, she thought to herself silently, she hasn't done in years.
The little red line stalled light at '49'. Bulma's eyes widened and started shaking her head at the screen as the little red line was starting to go back into '48'. She growled lightly again and grabbed the wrench.
"Why you-" She stopped when the red line started to rise…it went past '50' than '60', all the way up to '99'. She held her breath when that little window popped up.
'All viruses, bugs, etc. have been terminated.'
She brought her elbow back in a little victory dance. "Finally!" She whispered. She carefully packaged what she called 'The Dream Machine' into a bag. She put a note on it, reminding her to call the hospital in the morning, telling that she was going to deliver it. She pressed the button on the lab door and the first thing she noticed when she walked out was sun light. She groaned softly to herself.
"Might as well make that phone call now…" She grumbled, walking back into the lab. She grabbed the phone and dialed the number almost angrily into the phone pad, hoping she could make her voice sound at least a little pleasant while talking to the nurse or secretary or whoever picked up the phone and started talking to her.

Gohan was getting used to his surroundings. He thought back to Ledi. She reminded him of someone so much! He just couldn't put a finger on who exactly. He thought about the way she acted for a few minutes. It practically… scared him! It seemed to out of place on her for some reason. She was always happy and in a playful mood… It just didn't seem right.
He sighed, settling into the hay again. For some reason he hadn't moved from this area much. All he really ever did was take quick peeks around the area, nothing much.
He closed his eyes but they snapped open a second later.
He could have sworn he heard Videl's voice…
-
Videl shook lightly. She was sitting and the guards were once again standing right outside the doors. Videl ignored them though, she could care less about what was going on outside her room. Quite literally, everything of interest was happening inside her head.
She played his the tips of her hair lightly. Someone voiced the concern of her hair getting to long and her hanging herself with it.
Now, once every month, someone would come in, take three to four snips at her hair, and keep it to the point around her neck.
She started to shake her form slightly, trying to stay awake. Ever since she was 'raped', she didn't want to go to sleep. In fact, she hadn't slept at all except for a few times when she rested her eyes. She only did that when she knew the one beauty parlor person came in to do her hair though, she knew they would have to wake her up to get the bottom part of her hair.
Her eyes burned slightly. All those people thought she was insane. She snorted lightly, wondering where the hell they got the right.
She had been face-to-face with a gun, fought for them… and here they are telling her she's insane. Where the hell do they get the freaking right?
She felt her eyes drifting shut, it had been exactly fifty-seven hours since she last slept. She knew this from the clock on the other wall outside of her cell. It was there for the guards, to tell them when their shift was over.
She swallowed lightly, but kept her eyes open. She would not go back to sleep, not if there was a chance for her to relive that rape sequence. She shivered lightly. She hated the word so much…
Her eyes started to drift shut again. She tried as hard as she could, but she couldn't keep them open. Her body fell back slowly, and a soft 'thud' echoed around the room.
Something was different about this dream. She couldn't feel anything, so she knew that's exactly what it was, a dream. She looked around the trees and didn't see anything really interesting about them. They were just trees.
She walked around for a while, just watching the trees, wondering if there were any animals or anything in them, not quite sure from how quiet it was. After a few more steps Videl quickly brought her hand up to her nose and stuck her tongue out in disgust.
"What is that smell?" She thought to herself lightly. It smelt like something burning something like…like…rubber.
She looked around again and than looked down. A few feet in front of her, there was an odd puddle of some sort. She came a little closer to it, her hand placed tightly around her nose. Her eyes widened when she was able to figure out what the odd colored puddle was. She swallowed lightly.
"Flesh." She swallowed again, trying to keep herself from vomiting.
She started to run away from it as fast as she could, which here, unfortunately, wasn't very fast at all.
"Oh my…" She felt tears welling up into her eyes again, thinking about what it could have been, still running as fast as she could. That was when she heard a whisper run through the woods. She slowed down a little not knowing that she was. She looked around the trees, slightly paranoid.
"Who…what…who…?" She said lightly. She stopped running, just now noticing the crunching of the leaves under her feet.
"Videl…" She looked around again.
"Where are you?! WHO are you?!" The voice didn't answer again and she started to feel a head ache coming on. She brought her fingers up to her temples and rubbed them, trying to release some of the stress that had gotten to her.
The voice started talking again.
"Videl…" It was a little louder this time, and Videl could begin to place the voice. Her eyes widened when she began to realize who's it was.
"Gohan…" She whispered slightly. She heard his voice whisper again and she shut her eyes, falling to her knees.
When she opened her eyes again, she was in her room. She looked around frantically, looking for any hint to prove that what happened to her just moments before was real.
She closed her eyes in frustration. She sobbed lightly, falling onto her back when she felt her knees felt a little pain. She sat back up and brought one up to her face for inspection.
Nothing seemed wrong with it…at first. Her eyes widened when she saw a little red dot pop up, and than another and another. She didn't know whether to be happy or not about the proof of this little discovery. Should she be happy that what happened back there or not was real? She brought her hand up to her knee and touched the sore lightly, flinching.
It was real alright…
Now what?
-
Ledi played with hair and took out her pigtails. She stood up and looked back at Saiya-jin who was currently in her room.
"So…you want to know if I'll be able to take the feel of Videl being… raped by you. Am I correct?" he nodded.
"She's been in here for a few minutes already. We need her to be in here long enough and act-" Ledi put her hand up.
"Don't start a lecture…" She shivered lightly. "I hated those things during middle school yeeich!" Saiya-jin grinned shyly at her. She was still slightly surprised that he could do that… She shrugged her shoulders lightly.
"I…guess I'll be able to." He looked at her, glaring pretty much.
"I don't want a guess." She rolled her eyes at him.
"Do you realize what you're asking me? You're asking me if it's okay if you pretty much rape Videl because I'm going to feel it! I mean, come on, maybe it's just me, but doesn't that seem like, oh, I don't know, a little ABSURD?!" She screamed. Saiya-jin flinched, involuntarily matching her voice up with his mother's.
"Calm down…" She glared at him heatedly.
"Calm down?! CALM DOWN?! I'm show you calm you-" She walked over to him and pulled him down slightly, smashing her lips against his.
When they released, Ledi caught her breath before answering him.
"Be careful with Videl. We want her to know you're not Gohan. Change something about 'him' that…they wouldn't noticed went missing, but Videl would…okay? And…she's still scared. Just because she's forgot me doesn't mean she can't get scared you know." Saiya-jin nodded at her.
"I'll be sure to do that." He kissed her on her forehead lightly and stood up. He cleaned off his cloak lightly. He looked back her and bowed.
"Until later…" He grabbed her hand and kissed it. She raised her middle finger at him and he slapped it away lightly.
"That's not nice…" She shrugged.
"Shouldn't you be leaving now…?" He nodded his head slightly.
"Perhaps…" and he walked out the door.
