As soon as their feet left the ground they were rocketing through the sky and already out of sight of Piccolo and Tien. They were flying at a high rate speed, it made Abri's stomach turn like she was on a rollercoaster. After all they were about fifty feet in the air and she was being held by her waist and thrown over his shoulder with her legs pin down with one of his arms.
"I'm crazy scared right now!" Abri said as she gripped his jacket tightly. She also didn't like the fact her butt was so close to his face.
"You'll be fine." Trunks said but Abri shook her head.
"I don't know where I am, I'm lost, I'm scared, about sixty feet in the air flying around with a short person and some guy with purple hair!" She said frustrated.
"No offence Krillin!" She quickly said but he waved it off.
"You have the same hair yourself." Trunks mumbled but she could still hear it over the roaring wind.
"No problem, but anyway. How did you know my name?" Krillin asked her.
"If I told you that right now, I'll mess up everything more than it is now." Abri had enough strength to not get pin down by the wind so she could turn to him.
"Please just trust me on that. But know that I know everyone and a lot of stuff." She looked beggingly at him.
"Just telling you that could mess up something." Krillin looked into her pleading eyes. Trunks was not paying attention because he was lost in thought.
"Keh, do you have a situation like Trunks?" He questioned her, this was more of a test. If she knew about Trunks being from the future then she wasn't lying.
"Well...kind of...but I didn't time travel." She thought of this for a moment. "Yea, let's call it transported and leave it as that for now." Krillin nodded and turned to Trunks.
"Man, to be stronger than a super saiyan. I never even considered that to be a possibility." Trunks shook his head finally speaking.
'That was random.' Abri thought.
"I'm not sure I believe it either Trunks." Krillin said.
'Oh really, then you guys would be surprised when you see...I remember all the...all the...wait...I can't remember anything past this episode.' Her eyes went wide as she tried to remember something, anything past this moment. But nothing.
'Why can't I remember?!' Abri searched her brain over and over but failed to find anything besides events that happened before.
"But I know Vegeta and Goku can do it." Krillin finished snapping a Abri back to reality. Abri turned to the wind and was able to see Trunks determined face.
'Since Trunks is also a super saiyan...can't he do it too?' Abri thought. Then she felt herself shift as he flew faster.
"H-hey!" She gripped his coat even harder.
"Hold on." Trunks said as they were now going against the wind. Abri kept her head low and on Trunk's back to keep her face from getting wiped by her hair.
"Oh also, my name is Trunks, but I think you already know that." Trunks said and moved his free hand over his shoulder. Abri forced herself to remove one of her hands that clenched his coat for dear life over to his.
"Hahha, Abri Love." She was able to laugh a bit as she shook his hand. He also gave a little smirk.
"And you've already met Krillin." He looked at his friend.
"Hi ay." Krillin saluted with two fingers and she nodded to him.
"You can let go of my hand now." Trunks laughed but Abri shook her head.
"Oh don't mind me, I have absolutely no control over it. It was killing your coat...jacket..thing. Now it won't let go of your hand." Abri said, she really did try to remove her hand, but it was stuck fast on his. He had to help her pry her own hand off. But it wasn't working out so well so they just kept it there. It made Abri feel more secure, and it made Trunks calm down a little from his thoughts. Krillin gave him a look and Trunks looked back confused at him.
"What?" He mouth to his chuckling friend who glanced at Abri then back at him. Trunks realized what he was trying to say and shook his head at him and lifted up their stuck hands.
"Yea right." Krillin mouth back and just laughed ignoring Abri's confused look.
"There it is." Krillin said a few minutes later as they came to the totally destroyed remains of the lab. As soon as Trunks landed he leaned down a bit so Abri could get down. As soon as her feet touched the ground she felt like a jellyfish. Not only that, but it was freezing here! She only had on a wide strap black tank top and some red gym shorts that were half way up her thigh. Seeing this she finally realized she was in her pajamas. Even with cold legs that just flew many mph, to her surprise her legs were holding up well enough for her to walk. She heard Trunks clear his throat at he held up their intertwined hands.
"I'd rather keep that there for a while." She said as she stumbled when she took a step making Trunks jerk her hand up so she didn't faceplant the ground.
"Hahha thanks." She laughed nervously and shivered but tried to ignore the chilly wind.. He nodded to her and started to look around. The rock and pieces of metal were everywhere making it hard to find anything. Krillin kicked a piece of metal that was on a rock then shook violently.
"It's so cold!" He said and wrapped his arms around himself. Abri nodded in agreement as she too wrapped her free arm around her shoulder and rubbed her started to shrug out of his jacket but Abri shook her head.
"I'll get use to it in a minute, we need to find that lab first anyway." Abri said shaking her head even if she skin was dying for the warmness. Trunks looked at her for a while then nodded and continued his search but kept Abri near him and out of the wind.
"H-h-hey Trunks! How do you think we should go about finding the entrance to the basement under all this rubble?" Krillin asked still shaking like a leaf as the wind blew harder.
"Abri. Krillin," Trunks said shrugging off his jacket. She didn't even realize that he let go of her hand as he threw the jean jacket to her.
"I think you better stand back." Both Abri and Krillin looked to each other, then to him confused. To Abri's astonishment, Trunks raised his hand and a light erupted from his hand and hit a pile of rubble near him. Some rocks flew making Abri duck behind him for cover.
"Hey! Don't just say 'stand back' then go firing away!" She said moving from behind him but ducked as he fired with his other hand in a near place making her finally run some where behind him.
"Trunks!" She shouted but he just chuckled and continued his search. When Abri was a safe distance Krillin started to shot at the rubble. Abri had to keep moving around for two reasons, she was still kind of cold because it was freezing, and because she didn't want to stand on the entrance. It might be in the area around her for all she knew. But she did stay kind of close, all of the blows started to warm up the area. After nearly killing Abri a few more times and clearing almost half of the falling rocks, they stopped for a moment. Abri wiped her brow as she threw more metal piece over her shoulder.
"Find anything yet?" Abri asked as she coughed from the smoke that rose up from the spot next to her that Krillin blasted. Abri took a break for a few minutes to sit down on a rock. But when Krillin decided to shoot near her she decided to move.
"Opps, sorry." He laughed nervously but Abri just smiled and shook her head. as she jumped off a rock she was sitting on to be a look out. She prepare to jump down so she could find a safer spot.
"I swear you're out get MMEE!" She screamed when she jumped down and her foot slipped almost sending her down a hole. Trunks was there in an instant to gap hold of her arm.
"Are you ok?" He asked, Abri nodded.
"Krillin!" Trunks called him.
"Huh? Find something?" He asked as he helped Abri up as she moved her foot from the big hole.
"You almost killing me with a blast almost got me killed by a hole, but you found the basement." Abri mumbled halfway joking while she dusted off her gym shorts and removed some debri from her legs.
"This is it, take a look." Trunks confirmed as they looked at the deep hold with a ladder going down it. Abri gulped a little just thinking what would have happened if she fell down that distance, there were rocks blasted down there so she was sure some of them would have been waiting for her at the bottom when they reached it.
"Well what do you know?" Krillin was finally over there to look too. He looked down the hole. "That's it."
"Well come on let's go check it out." Trunks said as the wind began to howl louder.
"Ok." Krillin's voice got serious as he nodded. Both of them jumped down leaving Abri up there.
"Hey! I'm not staying up here alone! It's cold!" She called after them teasingly and halfway serious as she wrapped the jacket tighter around her.
"Then come on down, we're going ahead." Trunks called up.
"Roger." Abri rolled her eyes, they didn't need her holding them back, so she didn't complain. After all she was just teasing, she was happy climbing down herself than flying down.
"It sure is dark down there." Krillin's voice echoed up to Abri.
"Dark?" She asked her her face when pale. 'No no!' She shook her head.
'This is no time to be scared, I need to find as much information about this place as I can so I can get home. For all I know the answer could be down there. She swallowed hard as she made her way down the long dark tunnel. The ladder was so cold that it hurt her hands to go down. She shivered as the temperature dropped even more the further she when.
"Isn't it supposed to be warmer?" She felt her teeth start to chatter. Getting tired of this taking so long to get down, so she decided she'd tried a movie stunt.
'I hope this works.' Abri held her breath as she gripped the ladders sides so her palm cuffed the outsides of it. She put one foot on the outside two and let go of the breath she was holding.
"Here goes nothing." She mumbled as she hopped a little so she could get her other foot on the other side. She tried not to scream as she started to plummet downward. The slick metal of the ladder made it easy for her to slid down, but when it started to burn her hand she realized she didn't know how to stop. She closed her eyes and pressed the sides of her convers into the ladder hearing them squeak as it slowly pulled her to a stop. She opened her eyes to see darkness, but after a few blinks she could make out the outline of Trunks and Krillin who were possibly looking at her.
"I got bored...and lazy." She added on the last part.
"Watch your step." Krillin warned her as she got down. She had to feel around in order to find someone. The first person she found was Krillin so she gripped the top of his shirt softly as they walked. They walked carefully taking a cautiously step after another. Soon they saw a metal door. Trunks put both of his hands on the doors pushing them open. The sound of water dripping and machines running greeted them in the darkness. Krillin felt Abri's grip tighten on his shirt so he patted her hand, but this caused her to jump.
"Sorry, not a fan of the dark." She apologized, then she jumped when Trunks found the light old lights clicked on shining light everywhere. There were a bunch of pipes neatly running across the ceiling, some in the walls or across them. Then a big machine in the middle, a tank with green liquid, and a writing desk with papers scrambled all around it. A few big and small wires going in each tank and a boxes in the back along with a power generator.
"This must be doctor Gero's master computer ." Trunks said as he walked up to the device. Krillin looked at it in amazement and wordless shock.
"This thing is the brains behind the androids and Cell?" Krillin was really astonished. "Trunks, let's destroy it...it's responsible for all this mess!"
"Hold on wait, I really wanna see you guys blow up stuff, but won't you need some stuff from here?"Abri asked as she looked around. Trunks turned his attention to the green liquid. Abri also looked at it, there was a small fedus looking object in there. Trunks put his hand on the strangely warm glass.
"Wait...could that be...Cell?" She thought aloud without knowing. She saw the flash back during the show and there was no mistaking it, that was it, but none of them heard her.
"Look, there's something inside of here." He said narrowing his eyes.
"What?" Krillin came from behind him to see too.
"This has to be Cell still in his larva state." Trunks looked even closer at it.
"Whow!" Krillin got even closer to it. You could see the tail and the head that resembled the Cell that was here now.
"Man, that thing is made up of cells from all of the greatest fighters in the world." Krillin clinched his fists. "It has Goku's cells, and even some of mines."
"So does it make it you and Goku's love child?" Abri asked making Krillin's jaw drop.
"EWW Abri no!" He said disgusted but Abri just laughed. Trunks was too serious to laugh at the joke. Krillin looked back at the lavra Cell and thought about Abri's comment.
"Ehh, gross." He shivered at both.
"Yea, especially because we know what this will become." Trunks fast looked disgusted as he watched the floating thing. Abri didn't say it out loud, but she thought it was kind of cute, then she thought of the cocoon they found.
'Should have stayed a baby, even if it was an ugly baby, it looks better than the Cell here now.' Abri shivered.
"It will grow, into that ever monster, that evil monster Cell." Trunks looked angrily at the larva. Abri was going to try to comfort him but he turned away not noticing her hand was now where he was just standing. She pulled it back awkwardly rubbing the back of her neck.
"And all because of this computer is programmed to carry out doctor Gero's master plan." He growled.
"Come on, why don't we just blast that thing and the lab too?" Krillin asked as he held his hands up ready to shot. Abri jumped in front of him.
"No no wait! We need to see if we can find anything usefull first!" Abri said and Trunks walked over to Gero's desk. Apparently he was dumb enough to leave the structures of android 17 just laying there. They decided they would give the blueprints to his mother. Krillin shivered as he talked about his creepy eyes. Trunks started to get excited because they could find his weak spot.
"Hey! Yea great idea! Hey are there any other plans over there?" Krillin asked. "Maybe Cells?"
"Nah." Trunks said. "Just some crazy plan for a gas powered toaster oven." Abri couldn't help but laugh as she picked it up.
"Really? He could have made a new android blueprints but instead he made plans for toaster oven?" Abri had to hide her laughter as she looked at it, but the advanced sketch and number confused her so she just put it in her pocket. Trunks gave her a mean look but she just smiled at her.
"Come on you know you love me." She laughed as he sighed while rolling up the plans.
"We got what we need, what do you say we blow this place to smithereens!" Krillin grinned as Abri walked next to him. Trunks turned around with this grin on his face that made Abri's face turn bright red.
"Yea." His grin got wider. He looked over to Abri's face.
"You ok?" He asked and she nodded.
"I-It's just getting hot in here." She said and stretched the collar of her shirt to let air in. He nodded and told her to wait by the door. She nodded and started to head out.
"I think I'm gonna walk ahead...see if I can get to the ladder myself. This place gives me the creeps." She shivered as she put her hand on the wall to guide herself out. She didn't like the dark at all, but she really didn't like getting burned or blasted either. She could even hear them already getting started on their work. Loud explosions rang threw out the tunnel, even causing it to tremble under her feet. She felt like her the world just jumped from under her a few times.
"Payback, for all the suffering you caused!" She heard Trunk's voice echo in the tunnel. She felt bad for him, she could hear pain and suffering in every word he was saying. She climbed the ladder trying to keep a good grip so she wouldn't fall off. Then the biggest explosion was heard as she could guess he blew up the master computer. Then another was heard.
"There goes Cell." She mumbled. But then the entire tunnel started to rumble. She was already half way up the ladder when the explosion rocked the ladder so hard it vibrated enough to make Abri's hands slip. She let out a small scream as she started to fall. But before she could even fall three feet down she felt two sets of arms wrap around her waist and jerk her up. She had to cover her eyes as the blinding light of day started to come closer.
But when she blinked she saw it was coming from behind too. No, it was the fire like explosion from the lab chasing them all out. Krillin let go of Abri and left Trunks to carry her out when the tunnel got narrow. So now she clung on to the back of his shirt for dear life and wrapped her legs around one of his. As soon as they were out Trunks and Krillin paused a twenty feet above the entrance.
"Whoh! Yea! That was a blast!" Krillin cheered.
"Krillin! You're really bad at puns!" Abri said, her voice got higher in fear as they were flying so she still had her eyes closed and her face buried in Trunks chest.
"Now for the grand finale!" Krillin kind a simi baseball pitch throwing an energy wave into the hole just as the rest of the explosion was about to surface. This caused it to set off an ever bigger explosion creating a mushroom like cloud high in the sky Abri could see this as Trunks and Krillin flew off.
well! Tell meh what cha think~~
