Watching over Me- Chapter Ten- Angel Feathers- by Cowgirl Ed2002
"NO!" she screamed. Tears trickled down her cheeks as she realized the inevitable.
"Hahahahaha! Now to gather the Saiyan's blood!" yelled Freeza. He strolled over to where Marron was kneeling over Trunks, but stopped dead in his tracks when they heard a moan come from Trunks. They
watched in fascination as a read light emitted from Trunks, who was lying on the ground, breathing in last breaths of sandy air. The force wiped out Freeza, the scientist, and all the equipment that they had brought.
"NOOOOOO!" screamed Freeza, and the scientist. They vanished into the red light, and then it was quiet. In fact, silent. Marron looked around, hoping to see that at least one of the Z fighters had survived. She saw Pan, then Chichi, then Gohan, Goku, and Goten, then Bulma and Vegeta, then Bra and 18, then Krillin and
Piccolo. They all walked over to her, their eyes wide. She bit her lip, knowing what they would say, but turned her attention to Trunks.
"Trunks…" she whispered. She knew that he was dead. But she also knew that he didn't feel any pain anymore. She smiled, then kissed his forehead. "You did great!" she whispered. Then his chest stopped rising and falling, and his heart stopped beating. She brushed away his hair, then stood up. She wiped his sword on the sand, then sheathed it again. By that time, the others had reached her. They were silent. They somehow knew everything that had happened. Goten picked up Trunks' limp body, and they all flew back to Kame house.

Marron sighed, trying to hold her tears back. Tori just stared at her. Her eyes welled up in tears, and she started crying. Marron burst into tears too, and picked up Tori. She rocked her back and forth, and they both cried for awhile. But they immediately stopped when they heard a car door close shut. Marron dried hers and Tori's eyes quickly, and Tori pretended to be asleep in Marron's lap. Goten and Bra walked in, smiling. It looked like they had had a good time.
"Was she good?" whispered Bra and Goten at the same time. Marron nodded. She stood up, told them that she was glad to baby-sit Tori anytime, put her coat on, and walked out the door.
The winter air was chilly, and it made Marron pull her coat closer around herself. As she walked down the backstreets of Satan City, she stopped beneath the halo of a street lamp. She watched as a pure white feather floated softly down to earth. The area around it glowed. She stood there, mesmerized. But she whipped around to hear children's voices. A boy of about ten rounded the corner, but stopped when he saw her standing there. He had purple hair that was short, and cut sort of mushroom style. His blue eyes sparkled mischievously.
"Why hello!" he said brightly. She blinked, nodded, then turned to face the feather again. He looked to see what she was looking at. He drew in a sharp breath. "Do you believe in angels?" he asked her. She stared at him for a moment, then nodded slowly. "Because they say if you do, an angel will appear right before your eyes when you need it most." He said quickly. She stared. He nodded. "I've seen one before." He said. "But I don't know where." He added. Then he raced down the street. No one followed. Marron bent over and picked up the feather, taking care not to damage the delicate structure. She moved out of the light, then continued down the street towards her home.
