Chapter One

Marina and Trunks Everlasting

Chapter One

Marina's eyes opened as she looked around. Though all she could see was darkness and hear nothing but crickets in the far distance she felt at home. She had spent many times in this secret cave thinking things over and training. Infact if it weren't for it getting so cold during the winter she would make this place her home. Now was one of her thinking times. Someone she cares for and spends a lot of time with is on the verge of dying.

Yes death was a very sad thing. Especially when she could do nothing about it. Well she could but in turn she would risk her life aswell. That she didn't care. It was the matter of getting away so the others won't drag her back. "We have to do this as a team." Her Uncle's Words echoed in her mind. Goku always liked to think things over and then go for it one at a time. And if needed be a hero. Right now she wanted to be the hero. Not just for the Hero part. More like the part of getting Him out of there and Alive.

She sighed once closing her eyes "I will save you..." She muttered these words before reopening her eyes. A gust of Wind came through the cave flickering out the candles for a short time. When they were back to flame, Marina had disappeared.

Flying through the air made her think of countless times when she wasn't doing it alone. There was always someone next to her. Someone Special. The memories were flooding back now. Though they were Painful. Painful because if He died before she got to him she would have never got to tell him how she felt about him. Though that wasn't her main concern it was one of the top ten. She smiled to herself recounting how they first met.

It was a sunny afternoon just like any other but different for Marina. She was new around these parts. Very quiet and very shy at first. The only reason she found herself here was because people were afraid of her. Where she originally came from, New York , they were use to freaks. But not like her. She once had a tail. Which she had removed after a while. She also had Powers. Magical Powers. Strength like Powers which were revealed all the time, Only because she couldn't control them. Well that's what she came to this town for. She heard there were people like her. And this is where her Mother was brought up. So she came to dig up her past.

After paying for her small cottage like house she went to buy some food supplies. Breathing in the fresh summer air making her feel at home and less uneasy. She enters the market getting small things like eggs, Butter, Bread, Milk, Cereal and lunchmeat. Waiting in line took only a few minutes and when she got to the check out counter she started putting the things on there. She never looked up or cared to but then she heard a young man's voice say "That will be $15.43 Miss." Taking the money out of her wallet she looked up at him. He was a good looking guy about her age. She felt herself blush a bit handing over a twenty. He must have noticed she was new in town because then he remarked with a friendly smile" So your the new girl in town they've been talking about?" She must have given a worried look because in a softer tone " Hey It's okay it's nothing but good things. I'm Trunks." He then held out his hand to her. Clumsily she shook it. "I'm Marina." "Ah Marina. That's a pretty name" Yet again she blushed because of this Stranger named Trunks. She had to leave and she counted on coming back to see him. He was one of the first friends she meant. Though later He had become more than just that........

Snapping back to reality she remembered she had to find the location of the enemy. She touched the sack of Senzu beans knowing they would come in handy. Flying in and out of cloud she finally was on a trail to her destination...........
