Trunks looked back when he heard a quiet sighing sound to see Kiela plummeting towards the ground, several drops of blood falling behind her. "Kiela!" He yelled before diving after her. He flew up from underneath and she landed in his opens arms with a slight thud. He looked at her face with a worried expression, her eyes were shut tight, her teeth were clenched, and her face twisted in pain. "What's wrong with her?" He thought. He felt something warm and sticky trickle onto his fingers, he looked to see what it was to find a large bloody hole in her side just below her ribcage and really close to the middle of her abdomen. He clenched his teeth. "Darn it Kiela! Why didn't you tell me you were hurt?" He thought before quickly flying towards the ship at full speed. He landed in front of the spaceship seconds later and ran inside, Kiela's breathing was growing shallow and she was taking in really fast breaths. "Kiela's hurt!" He said once he stepped inside the ship and everyone's attention turned to him.

"Put her on the floor and I'll take a look at her." Quorrin, who was awake again, said, she looked pretty banged up though. Trunks gently placed Kiela on the floor next to the couch on her back.

"What happened?" Cocoa asked Trunks as she, Josh, and Luke ran to Kiela's side, looking at her as Quorrin took a look at her wounds.

Trunks sighed anxiously, scratching the back of his head. "I don't know. I noticed Kiela wasn't following us to the ship so I went to look for her, I found her by the edge of a lake on her knees and Ryzer standing behind her ready to blast her." Trunks told them.

Quorrin looked at him for a second. "I thought Ryzer died in a lake of that liquid fire." She said.

He looked at her. "I thought so too, but I guess we were wrong." He looked down and clenched his fists tightly. "I should've made him suffer!" He thought.

Gohan put a hand on his shoulder and squeezed reassuringly. "Don't beat yourself up over it, I know you took Ryzer down and you got Kiela back here alive. You should get some rest though okay?" Gohan told Trunks.

Trunks looked at him. "But what about Kiela?"

"Don't worry, we'll let you know if anything happens." Cocoa told Trunks with a smile, but he couldn't tell if it was forced or not.

"Yeah, go get some food and rest, you look like you need it." Luke agreed.

Trunks sighed slowly. "Alright, fine..." He said as he walked into the other room where they kept all the food, in other words, the kitchen, examining the room everyone else was in as he walked by.

Goku was passed out on the floor on top of a small mattress with a blanket covering him, some bloodstained bandages that were wrapped around his wounds were visible from under the blanket. Piccolo stood on one side of the room with his arms crossed over his chest as he watched everyone else. Vegeta leaned against the wall on the other side of the room, glaring at Quorrin, his right fist was on his hip and his left arm hung limply at his side. Cocoa, Luke, and Josh were getting some bedding out for Kiela as Quorrin started to bandage a large gash on Kiela's lower leg. And Gohan was walking into the control room, probably to launch the ship into space. Everyone but Piccolo, Cocoa, Luke, and Josh were all cut up, bloodied, and looked exhausted, so some food and rest sounded really good right now.

After getting some food from their large, semi-full food supply, Bulma had packed a ton for their trip, mostly because of Goku's appetite, and Gohan launched the ship into space, Trunks quickly walked back into the room where everyone else was. It looked like everyone had went ahead and decided to turn in for the night, or day, it was hard to tell what part of the day it was on Mykade or in space. But Quorrin was still awake, bandaging Kiela's abdomen where the hole and three long gashes were before she stood up and stretched.

"How is she?" Trunks asked Quorrin as he walked up to her.

She looked at him. "She'll live. She just needs some rest." She told him.

He sighed slowly. "I hope you're right."

She smiled at him reassuringly. "Hey don't worry about it. She's gonna be fine, trust me." She turned to the side to face him. "Now let's see if we can't get you patched up."

He looked at her and blinked a few times with a lifted eyebrow before shaking his head. "No, it's okay, I'm fine." He said.

She rolled her eyes and pulled him down to a sitting position. "Quit acting like Vegeta, even the toughest warriors need to be taken care of when they're hurt like this." She told him as she examined a large gash on his abdomen. He sighed and let her help, she was right, everyone need help every once in a while.

"Hey Quorrin? How do you know so much about medicine?" He asked Quorrin after a few seconds of silence.

"Well, I crash landed on a planet that was completely medical-based after a really bad training accident. I was hurt pretty badly so the people there took care of me. Once I was back on my feet, I stayed there for a while, helping the doctors and learning everything I could while I was there." She told him as she cleaned Trunks' wounds with a wet, bloodstained cloth. "I know how to bandage and clean wounds, make a tourniquet, use an X-Ray, and a lot of other stuff." She smiled slightly. "But I have no idea how to do a surgery."

Trunks smiled and looked at Kiela who laid next to him, she laid on top of the mattress Cocoa, Luke, and Josh brought out for her with a blanket over her. Bulma had packed them the mattresses, pillows, and blankets for them to sleep on, and they brought extra for Kiela or anyone else they might've found with her. Several bloodstained bandages were visible from under her blanket even though it reached up to her neck. And judging by her expression and rapid breathing, it looked like she was having a nightmare, but there was nothing he could do for her right now.

He ripped his attention away from her and looked at Quorrin, a question the he was dying to ask her surfacing in his mind. "I was wondering Quorrin, how did you find the frequency the Altaens were using while we were looking for Kiela several months ago?" He asked her. She stopped wrapping a bandage around a large gash on his arm, maybe he shouldn't have asked her? After a minute or two, she sighed slowly, tying the bandage around his arm before her arms fell to her lap.

"Should I tell him?" She thought.

"His curiosity will grow stronger if you don't tell him the truth." The male voice said in her mind.

She sighed again before looking up at Trunks and smiling a little. "I didn't, not on my own anyways." She told him.

He lifted an eyebrow in puzzlement. "What do you mean? I didn't hear anyone of us tell you anything." He said.

She shook her head. "That's because none of you guys told me. My father, Bardock, told me."

A/N: It's Bardock! If you guys figured it out then good for you! The question is, how? You'll see in the next chapter. Anyways, Trunks noticed that Kiela was falling and saved her, good job Trunks, and got her back to the ship, so now they're heading back to Earth, yay. Just a few more chapters until we reach the end of Shadows of the Deep, I'll post the next chapter soon!
