Welcome to my story, You Can't Run.
Disclaimer for the story: I don't own Dragon Ball/Z/GT or any characters in anyway. This is merely my story idea revolving around the characters. I only own a computer and the story idea. Also if you couldn't tell by the summary and or title, this is a AU, Alternate Universe.
Summary: Wrongly accused of a crime she didn't do, the former heiress of Capsule Cooperation is on the run. She tries to clear her name but she fails. After two years of trying to get her name cleared, che gives up hope and is just lying under the radar with the new name April Shores. She is just waiting for the right time to confront her past but she just can't. She is running, running far away from the unwanted past as far as possible. The search for her is dying down and Bulla-or rather April now has a new calming life and enjoys it. But two members of her past pay her a visit-her former best friend Pan Son and former crush Goten Son? Will the two Sons noticed that the waitress April Shores is actually Bulla Briefs? Or will they wave off the waitress since they are only in town because of Pan's college? Will Bulla Briefs get her justice severed? Or will she just be known as the murder of Marron Chestnut?
Ages:
Bulla: 17 (After two years: 19)
Goten: 19 (After two years: 21)
Trunks: 20 (After two years: 22)
Marron: 20 (After two years she is still dead)
Pan: 16 (After two years: 18)
Other characters will be involved but I am either not sure they are making an appearance or I am too lazy to even add them.
Rating: T for a few reasons. One, Bulla is a fugitive and they are going to be young adults in the next chapter so there will be swearing. Not only that but if you didn't read the summary fully, Marron is already dead. (Note: If you like Marron, turn back now) So yeah, depending if this go bad, I might bump up the rating.
Note: I won't be able to update as much as I want to due to school and my new computer. It doesn't have word so that is what confuses me. So I will try to update at least every two-three weeks. And if you like Marron, turn back now. She is already dead in the first chapter. Lovely start for me, no? And this is the first chapter so it's short. Also, I have no clue if they are Saiyans in this or not. It is the freaking 'Raven and Blue' problem all over again. Because if you didn't know, I was debating if they were Saiyans or not for like 30 chapters.
How This Story Was Born: I was in class, stomping my feet to annoy the person sitting next to me (He put gum on my chair the previous day) when I got the opening line stuck in my head. "Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp" I imaged a chase scene in the pouring rain for some reason. I thought about it more and image this story line but without a character really. And then I thought; 'Hey, I was going to publish and Goten and Bulla one shot since my stories usually focus on Pan and Goten' so why not make this a Bulla and Goten story? I went over it and thought about it then I started writing this on a piece of paper. I typed it up and I liked it so this is how I got this idea.
Story Time!
Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp
She ran. She ran as fast as she could.
Splash!
The sound of rain hitting the ground along with pounding feet. It rained hard on the female and the two men chasing her.
Run. Was the only thought running through her mind. The men cladded in police uniforms trailed after her yet she would stop running. She couldn't stop. She blocked out the yelling of the cops. She quickly turned around the corner. Glancing over her shoulder, she saw they have caught up with her. Taking the chance, she ducked into an alley. She pressed herself against the wall, concealing her breath and trying not to pant. She prayed they didn't find her but her strange colored curls were falling out of her hood. Bright blue wasn't hard to miss. She tried to stop herself from shaking seeing the police who were after her outside the alley she was in but failed doing so. The fear of getting caught was very high.
"Where did she go?" One of them asked. The other shrugged in response. They scanned the area but didn't noticed the trembling girl. They grumbled as they continued to run. She released the breath she didn't realize she was holding and sighed in relief. But it was short lived. She would need to keep moving. She tucked in her blue hair in her hood again and walked. She didn't have the strength to run right now. The rain poured down on her as she walked, leaving her to drift through her thoughts. Why? Why did this happen to her? She could ask that questions countless time but it wouldn't do her any good. What did her family have to say? What would her best friend think? She reached up and touched her cheek. It was raining but she knew it wasn't rain, it was tears.
"I can get through this." She whispered to herself, wiping away her tears. Yet she wasn't sure she believed that. What could she do? She sighed and continued trudging through the rain. Her head whipped around, looking to see if anyone was around her. She needed to keep up her guard at all times now and she couldn't trust anyone. She would probably have to dye her hair now because of this fiasco. It was a terrible day in West City and so no one was out and about today. She walked by a display window but froze hearing the news anchor talking. Her blue eyes looked up at the screen. In the corner of the screen was a picture of a girl. Her blue hair cascading down her shoulders a bit. Her eyes were close but she was smiling at the camera brightly.
"The latest story today is how Bulla Briefs, the daughter of the president of Capsule Cooperation Bulma Briefs, is the cause of Marron Chestnut's death. Marron Chestnut was the girlfriend of Bulla's older brother and the man who is suppose to take over for when Bulma retires. Trunks Briefs was known as a player so it surprised us all that he got a girlfriend. He also informs us he was going to propose to Marron at the conference declaring him the newest Capsule Cooperation president. He also adds that his family were the only one to know, meaning Bulla Briefs knew. This leads us to believe that Bulla wanted to sabotage her brother and killed his girlfriend to take over Capsule Cooperation. Due to the heartbreak of his soon to be fiance's death, he won't become the president anytime soon as Bulma Briefs stated. And with this once heiress being charged for murder, Bulma Briefs currently has no one to take over for her when she does retire. Currently the whereabouts of Bulla Briefs is unknown. So may everyone be out on the watch for the killer." The news anchor stated. Bulla let a sob escape her throat as she covered her face.
"I didn't kill her." She whispered. "I was framed." She fell to her knees and cried softly. But it didn't last long because she picked herself up. "No, I won't allow myself to be like this. Pan always say never give up. Even if I'm a fugitive currently, I can't give up. She is the one who trained me to run like that and thought me some fighting moves. I need to keep going. I need to clear my name but I don't know how."
Bulla reached into her hoodie pocket and pulled out her wallet. She looked through it and only saw she had credit cards. She couldn't use them directly since her family could track her. And she didn't have much time to withdraw enough money because her mother could cancel them any minute. She looked around and saw she was near the bank. She would need to withdraw all the money and get away from here as soon as she could. She would need to work fast and get out of the city. She took out her five credit cards-it may have been much but she was the daughter of Bulma Briefs-and ran to the ATM. This is where her journey started of being a fugitive.
Oh and I lied, the Trunks Briefs Scandal will be posted after this story. Bye!
