Chapter 3
Sweet dreams
Nijuunigou sat up in her bed. She knew where Trunks was now, they were going to see him tomorrow. Kill him. She put a hand to her forehead. She shook it lightly. Could she possibly still have feelings for this boy, remaining inside her? Deep inside her of course, but they were there, she knew. So why were they coming back now? Why had they gone? Driven deep inside her, never to return? Who knew, only she did, but she couldn't fine the answer. She stood, watching as her brother and sister erm...her friends, slept, their slight breaths the only sound in the damamged labratory. She walked over to the window.
She stood, looking at the stars. She still did...she still..loved Trunks. His lavender hair soft across his face, his swift movements as he fought. How she would love to caress his sweet tender heart. Interesting...she thought...How a simple memory could send love from your heart to the very top of you.
***
Stirring as he slept, Trunks struggled to stop the memories that were creeping closer and closer. Was was he to do, did he wants these frightning memories back to him? Long since he remembered the accident, and what if Nijuunigou had loved him? It was doubtful that she did anymore. And even though she had healed him after the long, harsh battles, it was long since then and she had probably forgotten also. But if she hadn't? What if she was out there, searching for him? What if she needed him? Would he be there for her, like he had promised all those years ago?
No, I won't. I'm not like her, I'm not a killer. She is. But she...I...we had something...
Trunks awoke in a stir, frightened, like a child. his forehead drenched in sweat. Clumsily, he rose to his feet, eager to get the answers he longed for. The ones that were never asked, never answered. Well he would find out. He would get the answers.
Slipping an a short jacket, he swept out the door into the cold night air. He continued through the damaged city. He flew silent in the sky, searching for the that very small, very damaged labratory in the mountains. Oh yes, he remembered this place. He slowly crept along the side and knocked silently.
She turned from her stars, and looked around, scanning the area. Yes she had heard russeling. She heard a slight knock at the door. She walked over to it, wondering what or who it could be. She opened the door slowly, cautionly. She stood in aw.
They stood, scanning each others bodys, seeing all the differences that had occured since the last time they had met. Trunks's hair was slightly longer, his choice in clothes different. He had on a black wifebeater, a jean jacket that looked too small, coming up to his torso, which stated Capsule Corp logo upon it. With dark gray slacks on, he looked very strong for someone who had been so weak years before. He must have been training...she thought.
Her hair had grown longer, down to her knees at least. She also had a change in wardrobe. Her blue tanktop had been changed to a shirt revealing her torso, but with sleeves overlapping her arms, and hands. Her shorts had been changed to a knee lengh skirt, with shorts under, with slights up the sides, it looked very torn at the bottom. Her boots were the same anyway. She's not the girl I knew before..she's a woman now...He thought.
She crossed her arms at him and looked at him, her lips curved to a slight smile. Did he know, that at that very moment before, she had been thinking about him?
He looked at her, her red eyes staring at him intisipation.
" We need to talk..but not here..let's go somewhere else. "
She nodded, saying nothing. She took a last glance at her sleeping conpanions, then left them behind as she followed him beyond the destrustion site, farther, until they reached a clear meadow.
She landed beisde him, on the cool grass. She closed her eyes, and smelt the cool, crisp air. It must be almost dawn..she thought. It would be nice to see the sun rise.
She sat down and shivered as she brushed her hands across the grass, which was wet with morning dew. She smiled, thinking of how peaceful it had must have been, before her friends had destroyed it. She had never seen it. They had done it before they had activated her. It would have been something to see.
" Can we talk now...?"
He looked at her, and although he had the voice and body structure of a man, his eyes still gleamed a small, defenseless child. This made her smile, this was what she had liked most about him so long ago.
"Yes...talk. "
"Well you see..."
He looked away, this must have been hard for him. It was obvious to see he had some feelings for her. He wondered if she could see that? Nah..
" Are you going to speak up Trunks? "
He could hear the maturity in her voice, that it hadn't been there years before.
" Yes..."
" Well then out with it. "
" Nijuuni...Did you ever have feelings for me, unexplainable...that you showed with care, but never let Juunana or Juuhachi know? "
She stood there motionless, their breaths the only things being heard.
" You always hurt me so harshly, but then after you would come to me, stay with me all night if you had to, and helped me recover. But why? Just so you could beat me up more the next time? Have more fun? That's what I had always thought..but I think you can give me the answer I want to hear. "
She clenched her fists, causing blood to arise from her sleek hands. What if I did have feelings you? Would you return them..?
"...Why..why would I tell you? "
He looked at her hands, covered rashly with blood. They stared for a few moments. He walked over to her, he took her hands in his. He took of his jacket, revealing his arms, which supplied a generous amount of muscule. She wondered what it would be like to be held in those arms, those powerful arms. A pain struck her hand, which caused her to draw back her hand from his.
His hand traced hers and brought it back. She let him tend to her wound. He tore off a piece of his wifebeater, and dabbed her cuts. She looked at his face, his eyes full of concern, consetrating on her hand. Still looking at her hand, he wrapped the blood stained piece of cloth around her wound and sat down in front of her.
" Because...I want to know if you feel the same way about me as I feel for you..." He murmered softly, hoping she'd hear it. She drew back her bandaged hand and waved her hand slowly in front of her face.
"...You were hurt...I couldn't just leave you there...I'm..I'm not like my brother or sister erm...partners. They're different then me."
She lightened up. She tilted her head back and shouted.
" I'm not like them! I'm not blood thirsty and cold blooded! I love this land that you people live in! "
She stood up and ran through the field swiftly, laughing as she went. Trunks smiled and ran after her laughing. She spinned around several times, hoping that Trunks, and the world, would hear her confession.
" I wish I could have lived here, like you all! Live in a peaceful world! I want everyone to be happy and Yes! I do love you, Trunks! I love every inch of your pure heart, only wishing you would love me the same way! I took care of you! I didn't like to see you hurt! I love you...!"
She shook her fists in the air and tears started making a trail down her cheeks. She looked toward Trunks, who was smiling running toward her. She laughed as he picked her up and spun her around.
Not until after it was being done, Trunks had her in a friendly kiss that she didn't seem to want to break. She warpped her arms around his neck, his around her waist, and they kissed until the lack of oxygen was too great. He pulled away from her and set her down. He breathed deeply until his heart stopped beating. She looked at him softly. She could see is mouth trying to form words, and she rested two fingers upon his soft lips.
" Shhh...don't speak..."
His eyes showed agreement. She lifted her fingers, and his swift movements left her dizzy as he whizzed behind her, wrapping his powerful arms around her, and turned her toward the light over the mountains and hilltops.
She sighed deeply as the sun rose high, slightly over the mountains. It was a beautiful sight to see. turned around and looked at Trunks, and placed her hands on his soft cheeks.
"...Don't tell Juunana about this..."
He nodded in agreement. She rose into the air, before he could stop her, and blasted through the clouds making way toward the labratory. He sighed. He felt like his love was being left. He looked down, remembering each and every time Nijuuni had taken care of him after the battles. Oh how he missed those times. He lifted into the sky, making his way back to Capsule Corp. Can't wait to see Nijuuni tomorrow...Can't wait to see her...I even want to see Kitana right now I'm so happy...
He landed near Capsule Corp and crept silently inside. The lights were off. Good...he thought. No one had noticed him being gone so long. He walked to his room and looked at the door attcahing him to Kitana. It was calling to him. He walked quietly over to it and opened it. He crept inside and and stared at her. The new sunlight cast shadows across her face. He walked over to her and placed a peek on her cheek. She stirred slightly but made no other movement. He smiled as she slept and walked back to his room.
He layed over his bed and kicked off his shoes and he lay his head to rest. As he drifted off to the land where people have special dreams, he could bety himself he was going to have dreams full of Nijuuni and Kitana tonight.
***
Nijuuni drifted across the sky, landing near the labratory and slowly went through the door, and lay across her bed. She sat up. She walked silently over to Juunana and looked at him. She bent down, laying a kiss across her brother's...her partners's...her...other love's lips. He did nothing but continued sleeping.
She walk back over to her bed and lay across it, shaking her head on her pillow. She sighed quietly and smiled. She quietly murmered to herself then fell asleep.
Sweet Dreams...
