Trunks burst through the wall of flames. He looked all around himself in search of Treana. He finally found her. Lying motionless upon the ground. He placed her in his arms. Tears now stained his cheeks.
True Love
Chapter 1
Treana was in the corner of the Briefs' living room meditating when Gohan burst through the door heaving and gasping for air. Treana looked up calmly, "What's wrong Gohan?"
*Still gasping for air* "Nothing...just...trying.... to ....beat Trunks home without using any power."
"Trunks is in the kitchen eating the food you said for me to make for a prize. Better hurry if you want any. Goku's in there too."
*Gohan wide eyed runs to the kitchen* *Stops dead in his tracks* "My gosh Treana how long did it take you to make this?"
"Only 2 nights I didn't know how much you and your Father could eat much less Trunks."
*Trunks finishes first* "Thanks hun! It was really great!"
*Treana blushes from being called hun but hard expression doesn't change* "Thank you glad you enjoyed it. Gohan..."
"Yeah...*Oink oink, stuffs face"
"Don't you think you should be outside playing with Dende? I mean the Cell games have been over for a good 2 months...you don't have to be super saiyan anymore."
"*powers down* You're right....what am I worried about?"
*Piccolo and Treana come full force at Gohan*
"That's what," Piccolo says a little disappointed in Gohan. "How many times do I have to tell you that you never power down when we're in training?"
*Gohan looks at Treana* "You tricked me!"
"I was testing your weakness, you're getting too proud of yourself, pride isn't bad but don't go over board with it...ok?"
*Looks at Treana alittle ashamed and annoyed* "OK"
"Good...now *looks at Piccolo* *rolls eyes* this really goes against my grain but.... Piccolo and I have decided to give you a day off...to may power down and play with Dende and your friends until 2:00pm tomorrow."
Gohan's eyes fill with joy. "THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH!" Gohan runs out door and tells Dende excitedly.
Treana yells after him. "THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE WON'T HIT IT HARD LATER!"
*Sighs* " Life is so short...we must protect what little time we have...what little happiness we have."
Trunks puts his hand on her shoulder. "Yes. That may be true...but we protect life so we can enjoy it." Trunks turns Treana around and looks into her eyes. "If you don't enjoy the life when we're not protecting it...then what are we protecting...?"
