Clare: Hi peeps! We're back with chapter and so Mat doesn't have to say his favorite word: Enjoy, We'll just get right to it!

Mat: Amen to that!

                                                                        The Love Within

                                                                  Chapter 7: That's the last

            "Serena?" once again Serena's mouth opened and closed like she was trying to say something.

            "Arg! I can't explain it to well." Trunks looked at her.

            "Well explain what you can." Serena sighed.

            "Alright I'll try. While I was looking for the dream you had I saw the rest of your memories from when you were young to now. But when I reached where the dream would have been all I saw was you standing in a fog and then you started walking towards something. Then just as you reached a light…BAM! It felt like some one just sent a Ki blast to my brain. I blacked out. All I got was the form of another person and you talking to it. I couldn't hear anything. The only thing I heard was "You must not know!" and then all went black." Trunks let what she said sink in.

            "So it's like there's some sort of barrier blocking you from seeing the dream." Serena nodded.

            "It's more like a spell. If it were a barrier then I wouldn't have seen anything but the fog. But who put the spell there is what gets me. I couldn't have because I'd have to be in your subconscious to do it."

            "Weird." Trunks mumbled."

            "Very. I need to know the spell that was cast to be able to break it. But since I don't I can't see anything." Trunks nodded.

            "At least you tried. Man! When you blacked out you scared the hell out of me!" Serena smirked.

            "Really?" Trunks nodded and blushed.

            "Yeah. You went so limp and I swear that if your eyes were open they went to the back of your head." Serena laughed.

            "I bet. Anyway, lets get some sleep. I've got a feeling that we're going to have a busy day tomorrow." Trunks nodded and they went back inside.

            Trunks and Serena were sparring in the G-room while Bulma was working in her lab. All of which were underground (Curtsey of Serena).

            "Come on Trunks! Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean you have to hold back! I did spend most of my life with the androids!" Serena growled. Trunks smirked.

            "Fine!" Trunks powered up and went to his full power. SSJ2. Serena yawned.

            "Is that all?" Trunks smirk turned into a scowl. 'Is that all! Is that all?! Please! Time to show her what I'm made of!' Trunks charged at Serena and started to attack. She dodged most of his punches but a kick to the gut slipped past her and sent her into the wall. Serena stood and looked at Trunks. Trunks expected her to be pissed that he was able to hit her but his grin faltered as he saw Serena grinning at him then begin to laugh.

            "Man! That almost tickled!"

            "Tickled? Tickled! I'll show you what tickling is!" Trunks marched over to her and promptly started to tickle her. Serena withered under his attack laughing.

            "Ahhh! *laugh* Trunks!*giggle* STOP! Ahahahahah!!" Trunks smirked.

            "Say you give."

            "Never!*Laugh*" Trunks shrugged.

            "Alright then." He pinned her arms above her head holding them with one hand while the other continued his assault.

            "Ahhhh! Alright! *Laugh, giggle, laugh* I GIVE!" Trunks smirked and stopped. He let Serena catch her breath while she was still giggling from the aftermath. Trunks looked her in the eye smiling. She stopped laughing and looked back. Trunks head inched closer to hers and his lips were millimeters from hers. Serena's eyes slid shut as did Trunks. Before their lips could touch the G-room's gravity shut off as the door opened. Trunks and Serena's heads whipped around to face Bulma.

            "Oh! I'm sorry! I'll come back." She started to inch out of the room.

            "No, what is it Kasan?" Bulma coughed and they looked back at each other and blushed as they realized how close they were. They quickly separated and turned to Bulma. Bulma grinned slyly as the two blushed. She then got serous.

            "Cell is attacking the west side of what's left of Satin City." the two nodded and walked out of the G-room. As soon as they were out of hearing range Bulma smiled.

            "I guess that I just might get grandchildren." Shi snickered and went back to her lab.

            "I've got a lock on Cell's Ki. He's heading southwest." Trunks nodded and sped up. Serena grabbed Trunks jacket and pulled him down to a landing on a hill where they faced Cell.

            "Well, well, well. We finally meet." Cell said in his raspy voice. (Clare: Isn't that voice annoying? He sounds like he has a frog in his, err, thought? Mat: -_-;;) Serena crossed her arms over her chest.

            "So, Trunks, would you like the first, and possibly only. round?" Trunks cracked his knuckles.

            "If you wouldn't mind." Serena grinned.

            "Be my guest. It wouldn't be any fun for me. I have no grudges against him." Serena pulled off Trunks jacket and held his sward that he had grabbed.

            "Bear hands or weapon?" Trunks smirked.

            "I want this to be fun. I'll use my hands." Serena grinned.

            "Good choice." Trunks walked closer to Cell while Serena floated cross-legged in the air with Trunks jacket and sward on.

            "tell you what, Cell. Since you're weaker than me I'll  give you a had start." Cell sneered and charged him. Trunks stood his arms crossed over his chest. Cell threw punches at him but none of them landed on his target.

            "What?! You're not even moving! Why can't I hit you!"

            "Actually, Cell, he is moving. Only since you're so much weaker than him and I you can't detect his movements." Serena said smirking. Trunks grinned and punched Cell in the face. Cell, caught off guard, flew back and skidded a good 10 feet away. Trunks faded and appeared next to cell. He kicked him up and punched him back. Cell landed in front of Serena who, with his mind, picked him up and tossed him back to Trunks.

            "Lets play toss the Cell Trunks!" Serena said smirking.

            "Sure!" They continued like this for a few more minutes before Serena stopped him in the middle of the two.

            "Watch this Trunks." Serena narrowed her eyes in concentration and Cell started to scream out in pain as his battered body started to stretch up, down, and side-to-side. Serena clapped her hands in joy as Cell's face stretched. Then the Cell fell to the ground.

            "Cool trick huh?' Trunks smiled and nodded.

            "You'll have to tech me how to do that." Serena nodded and back flipped onto Cell landing on both feet. Trunks clapped.

            "Nice."

            "Oh I can do better. Watch." Serena hovered above Cell and metal spikes shot out from her shoes. She dropped her Ki causing her to fall feet first onto Cell's back. Cell yelled out as the spikes penetrated his, err, skin. (Clare: He's a bug! I don't think he has skin! Mat: Then why'd you write it? Clare: I dunno. Mat: -_-) Serena stepped off of Cell the spikes disappearing and she lifted Cell up by the back of his neck.

            "How's about a little target practice Trunks? See if you can destroy his core." Trunks walked up to her.

            "Sure. I have just the attack that'll do it." Serena smiled sweetly, too sweetly for Cell's likening.

            "Alright. Ready?" Trunks nodded and started to prepare his attack. Serena threw Cell up and Trunks started his attack.

            "GALET GUN!" The attack shot up and hit Cell full force. The listed for his screams and squinted in order to see Cell being ripped apart and disintegrated. Serena threw a couple more blast up into the larger on just to be safe. When they were content with their work Trunks put his arm around her shoulder and she put an arm around his waist.

            "Well, partner, that was another good work out." Trunks laughed and nodded his head in agreement.

            "Yep. Oh and by the way, you look good in my jacket. Even if it is a bit big." Serena smiled and they took off back to CC to tell Bulma that they had finally gotten rid of Cell.
