CHAPTER 36: THINGS I MUST DO!
DONTRELL'S P.O.V
I started thinking about my role in the ultimate team and why was I even risking my life just to protect the earth? yeah sure I know back then I told them I wanted to join but now im starting to think "Maybe this wasn't the best choice I've made" and I nodded "well I'm 14 now and they do seem to always have their hands wrapped up a lot, so why not just ignore those thoughts im having". I was in the vehicle room underneath a tank repairing it, Krillin must have heard me because he said "Dontrell what are you down there mumbling about" I scooted from under the tank saying "Oh nothing just my life" and slide back under it, Oil splashed onto my goggles, I made sure to close my mouth this time (It has a very sour taste to it-yuck. "Maybe you shouldn't drink it again" Nova just let me do all the work alright).
I kept tightening the pipe until it was on fully after I decided it was on securely I slide from under the tank and walked over to the heli-carrier to see this girl with orange hair walk in the room and then It hit me who it was "Hey Taffy" Taffy waved looked over in my direction and smiled while saying "Hey Dontrell how's it going?" I pulled my goggles off my eyes "It's going good, what about you?" "Ah you know, im just checking the place out since I haven't even been in these rooms" I grabbed a towel to wipe my hands off and says "That's because these rooms are only open when there's missions going on" Taffy tucked her hair behind her ear "And Wars too" I didn't respond to that one, Taffy caught my awkward silence and says "So Dontrell what made you join The Ultimate Team?" I started thinking on it then says "Well I just want to help keep the world safe is that too much to ask?" Taffy rolled her eyes playfully "So the reason you're here is to help keep citizens safe?" I nodded "Yeah, what about you" Taffy was looking at her nails "What about me?" "Why did you decide to join Tut?" "Because my friend Kenzy told me to come with her and oh did you know she's pregnant" I nearly dropped my goggles when I heard that one and says "No way, by who?" Taffy shrugged and says "She told me not to tell anyone and She does have a daughter her name is-" "Her name is Kiya" we both turned around to see Kenzy standing there.
Taffy pointed her head towards Kenzy "Yeah that's her name and she's currently 1 years old" Kenzy looked at the walls and says "And im only 16 soon to be 17 with two kids and what am I doing? here trying to help out" I licked my lips and says "Kenzy if you tell them you know they'll let you go away for like 5months with pay right?" Kenzy nodded "Yeah I read it on the guidelines but im not ready to call quits yet, like I went into retirement and came back then i'll leave again for what? if that was the case I should just stayed in retirement" I started thinking then says "You came back which is good and if you leave no one will judge you because a lot of people does that around here after each war or after a certain amount of missions is completed and maybe you know not everyone makes it after a war, you probably want to make as much money as you can and put some up for your kids because if you do die and im not jinxing you or anything Kenzy, they'll have enough for at least 12years of their lives" Kenzy's eyes watered a bit but she didn't cry "That's all I want, is for my kids to remember their mom as the loving, caring and fun girl they know I am" Kenzy got a text from her phone and left the room.
