Chapter 1



Anemone felt a gentle hand come to rest on her shoulder. "Jynx will be safe here. Right now, Gohan needs your help." Kaiya declared.

"Just keep her safe." The amazon looked at her hands, the smooth band of metal about one of her fingers did little to bring her comfort. She rubbed her shoulder to relieve some of the stiffness in her shoulder that had come from stress. A scar there gave her some comfort, but not much. She could still feel Gohan's emotions, and knew that what was happening was troubling to him.

"Kaasan! Where are you?" A little girl ran up to her, a scared look on her face. "Kaasan, don't leave me!"

She knelt down, putting her face on a level with her daughter's. "I have to. Jynx, you're safe here. And your father needs my help." She stood up and took off in a flash of bright blue light. Gohan, where are you?

Anemone easily found his ki and locked onto it. Instantly, she dropped to the ground, realizing that something evil was behind her. Those two almost spotted me. She continued onward, looking for the warrior she knew was nearby.

Once she realized where he was, she shot into the air, flying faster than she'd flown in years. She saw the danger he was in. "Gohan!" He turned, surprised to see her. "Duck!" He dropped to the ground, avoiding the blow that Juunanagou had aimed at him.

The jinzouningen looked shocked, as he had no files on the amazon who had just warned his enemy. A sphere of ki forced him back, away from the saiya-jin. "You won't get away with that." he hissed.

Gohan leapt to his feet then away from them, pulling Anemone with him. "We have to get Trunks." he whispered. A confused look came to his face. Who was Trunks anyway? Then, a mischievous light came into her eyes. He nodded, knowing what she had in mind. They quickly built up enormous ki blasts, letting them pool together. Once it was released, the jinzouningen were forced will out of the city.

The warrior lifted Trunks up. "Come with me. There's a lot you need to catch up on."

"So, they were all..." she broke off, not trusting her own voice. He wordlessly nodded, still feeling the pain of the loss of so many friends. Then, the boy woke up.

Trunks let out a startled gasp as he leapt from Gohan's arms. "Who is she?"

"Her name is Anemone." I think we should tell him the truth about this relationship. At her slight nod, he realized she agreed. "She is my wife." A startled yelp came from him. That was something unexpected. They landed in front of Capsule Corp, then went inside. "Bulma!"

She came out of her lab, then let out a startled cry. "Come inside." The woman then guided them through the maze of collapsing halls and into a nearly intact room.
