CHAPTER 4
Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball Z, only Serena, Melissa and Karina.
Trunks POV
Thank god it's finally lunchtime. Karina did get some nasty comments thrown at her but she dusted them off like it was nothing. But I couldn't help but notice that anytime a comment was made about her, her eyes changed colour. I know that when you're angry, your eyes turn a shade darker, so I was expecting her eyes to turn a deep purple. But it didn't turn to deep purple; it turned to a bright angry red. At first it scared me a bit and I wanted to ask her about it but I didn't because another thing puzzled me and it was her scent. Her scent didn't smell like a normal human's scent and it didn't smell like a Saiyan's scent either so that might explain about the freakish eye colour change and the earlier incident with her voice being echoed by another voice but deeper. All of this scared me yet intrigued me about her; I just have to find out more about her.
I was still in class packing up my stuff and so was Karina so I decide to go over and talk to her. "Hey Karina, you almost ready to go?" I asked. "Yea, almost but do you mind following me so I could go see my sister?" she asked smiling cutely. "Not at all, who's your sister," I asked again. "Do you know a Melissa Miyagi?" she asked. "The really popular senior," I said. "That's the one," she said smiling. "Wow, now that you mention it, I do see the resemblance, so what are we waiting for let's go because I'm starving," I said, making her giggle. 'She is so cute and really nice, why would anyone want to hurt her' I thought. "Ok, let's go, I wouldn't want my first friend to die of starvation," she said smirking. I rolled my eyes playfully and we headed out the door of to the senior's block. We didn't have to go far because Melissa was at the entrance of the hallway apparently waiting for Karina. "Hey," she greeted Melissa. "Hey Kar, I see you've made a new friend the most popular freshman in the school," Melissa said. Karina nodded her head. "Well I'm glad, and I heard about your confrontation, are you ok?" Melissa asked. "Yea, I'm ok, I'm just curious about how they knew about the rumor, I know the rest of the schools know because they obviously spread it but I wanna know how they knew," she said sadly. "It's ok Karina, just don't let it get to you," Melissa said smiling. "Thanks Mel," Karina said. "No problem kiddo, hey why don't you spend the day at Trunks' house," Melissa said. 'What The Hell!' I thought to myself. "Melissa we just met," Karina said with a slight blush on her cheeks. "So, you need to get away from the stress, besides it will help you know each other better," Melissa said winking. "If it's ok with Trunks, is it?" she asked turning to face me. "I-I guess it's ok," I stuttered out with a blush coming on a blush coming on my face. "Then it's settled, now run along and eat, no need for you fainting because you're here talking to me," Melissa laughed then shooed us away. We were walking away but I saw something out of the corner of my eye and it was an evil glint in Melissa's eye and I surely didn't trust her after seeing that.
The walk to the cafeteria was long because it was on the other side of the school. As we step foot in there, the normal noise of the cafeteria switched to a deathly silence. A few whispers were heard and with my Saiyan hearing I could hear what they were saying. "What is he doing with someone like her?" "She'll get pregnant in no time." "She looks so innocent, they were right looks are very deceiving." I couldn't believe what I was hearing; they don't even know the girl to confirm if the rumor was true. "Karina, why don't we go on the roof instead," I suggested. "Ok," she agreed solemnly. I put a comforting arm around her shoulder and lead her out to the roof.
When we reached the roof, Karina stared out at the sky with a solemn face and tears forming in her eyes. "Kar, you heard didn't you?" I asked expectantly. She nodded her head slowly then her shoulders began to shake as she sobbed. I pulled her in an embrace, rubbing her back and whispered sweet nothings in her ear. "Trunks, how come you're so nice to me on the first day and the others aren't?" she sobbed in my chest. "I don't judge people when I don't know them," I answered. "Do you believe that I'm a slut?" she asked. "No," I answered pulling her from my embrace and wiped away her tears with my thumbs. "Why, don't you think I'm a slut?" she asked. "Because, you didn't throw yourself at me the first time you saw me like the rest of the girls here," I answered. "Trunks, I'm gonna tell you something and I hope it doesn't make think any less of me," she said while taking a shaky breath. I nodded my head for her to continue. "I didn't force myself on my P.E coach, he forced himself on me and raped me," she said looking away from me. My brain stopped working after she told me that. "How did he manage to do that?" I asked in a shocked state. "I was alone in the girl's locker room and he came in and said he wanted to talk to me and I was stupid enough to let my guard down and believed him and then he –," she cut herself off with a sob. "Kar, you don't have to worry about me thinking any less about you," I reassured. "Really?" she asked meekly. "Mmhmm, and form now on you don't have to worry about being hurt," I said. "Why?" she asked. "Because from now on, I'll be your hero," I said then our eyes widened like dinner plates. 'Didn't that line come from my dream, IT IS HER! I found the girl I'm supposed to love.' I thought to myself.
