Flash Back




Marron landed on the grounds of Capsule Corp. and sure enough, Goten and Trunks were sparing out front. They were sweating and both had taken off their shirts. Marron watch, but not because of that, because they both were alot stronger powered up like this.
"Marron!" Bra shouted running up to her. "Come on in. Pan just got here and we want to start the movies."
"Uh, okey." she said following her into the main living room. "What did you all get?"
"English Towers and The Beast with Five Fingers." she said sitting down on the couch. The room was covered in pillows around the main coffee table so she sat down on one. Across from her was Pan who already wore a flanel nightgown with matching bottoms.
"Never heard of them." she said honestly. "Hi Pan."
"Hey Marron. How are Krillen and 18?" Pan asked.
"Great. I paid for them to go to the Make Your Day Spa." she said. "I got a call yesterday saying they were fine."
Bra reached over and put in the movies and Pan passed the pocorn. the Beast with Five Fingers was an old black and white classic with Bella Lugosi. It was how a hand suposedly rose from its masters grave and started killing his heirs. The next one was even better. A love store about a woman driven mad with revenge for her cheating lover and locks herself in her tower never to see the day light again. When it ended the pizza arived and they sat around chatting about whatever drifted through their minds.
"That girl reminded me of you." Pan said suprisingly.
"How so?" Marron asked.
"Well," she said setting down her soda. "She was obsessed with revenge like you are with Goten and Trunks. Only your not one of their lovers."
"Yeah," Bra said. "Like when we first met in the locker room. You said you were entering the tournoment for revenge."
"What do you have against them anyway?" Pan asked.
Marron looked away. Outside she could still hear Goten and Trunks going at it. If she had to pick a certian point in time that pushed her over the edge, it would be the week before she turned ten.

A nine year old Marron walked between a thirteen year old Goten and a fourteen year old Trunks. They had promised to take her for ice cream after they were done sparing and Goten was a little cocky because he had won.
"Yes," he said. "it's the old Son gene."
"Is that the same gene that makes you dumb as a post?" Trunks asked picking up a menu.
Goten glared at him and opened his mouth to comment, but a waiter seemed to materialize out of no where.
"Hello." he said. "I am Jobe. May I help you?"
Trunks rubbed his chin and read the menu over. "I guess I'll have fourteen scoops of bananna with cherries."
"I'll have cherries too." Goten said. "But on two omega sundaes."
"T-two?" the waiter stammered. "Sir, whole groups have choaked on one!"
"Better add some hot fudge then." Goten said sitting back. "Makes it go down easier."
The waiter sighed. "Dare I ask what the lady wants?"
Marron smiled and blushed a bit. She had never been called a lady before. "I'll have one scoop of strawberry, please."
"Marron, Marron, Marron." Trunks shook his head, "Such a disappointment."
"Huh?"
Goten smiled. "There are hundreds of flavors out ther and each time you get-"
"One scoop of strawberry on a waffle cone." Trunks finnished in a dull naisal voice.
"You need to seize the day." Goten said.
"Full speed ahead."
"Damn the torpedos!"
"Charge!"
"Alright!" Marron said just wanting them to shut up. "I'll have a root beer float with . . . . rocky road ice cream."
The waiter nodded as he wrote it down. "I'll be back in a few minutes."
As soon as he left Goten and Trunks grinned mischifly.
"Root beer and rocky road?" Trunks asked.
"Do you even have taste buds?" Goten asked.
"Well," Trunks said. "she doesn't have a nose."
Marron gasped.
"What does that have to do with anything? Goten asked interested.
"See taste and smells are connected." Trunks said going into his I'm-the-son-of-a-genius-mode. "It is a fact that if you can't smell or have damage to the naisal cavity then all food loses it's taste. Seeing as how Marron doesn't have a nose in the first place-"
"I HAVE A NOSE!" she shouted. She held her head up high. "It's just dainty."
Soon their ice cream came, Gotens on two carts, and they dug in. They talked for a while and Trunks even agreed to try some of her root beer rocky road. Then Goten told them hos Gohan and Videl were trying to have a baby.
"I think it'd be good to have a nefew." Goten said. "I could show him all od my moves and technices."
"Ah, another Son boy punching bag." Trunks grinned.
"What if it's a girl?" Marron asked.
Goten paused. "I didn't think of that. But it will probobly be a boy since their both fighters."
"What does that mean?" she asked getting confused.
"Well, Gokus a fighter and he had two boys and my dads a fighter and he had me. I guess strong fighters have strong boys."
"What about my dad. He's strong." Marron pointed out. "AND had a girl."
"Look Marron Krillen is really strong. Just strong for a human. Like Mr.Satan how he had Videl." Goten said.
"My dad is alot stronger then Satan!" she said getting mad. "And my mom is the worlds strongest woman."
"Only because shes an android." Trunks said. "Face it, no human is nearly as strong as a sayjin. Or a half sayjin for that matter. Humans are just weaker."
Marron pushed away her glass. Her vision got blurry. She won't cry, she won't cry. "Humans are just as good as sayjins. Daddy and Tien and Yamcha are great fighters."
"Sure they are." Trunks said. "But no way a dumb old human could even beat us."
"Yeah." Goten said enthusiasticly. "Sayjins are the best and humans are weaklings." The boys high fived one another not seeing the tears run down her cheeks.
Marron pushed away from the table and ran off. She was miles from home and didn't know the way because Goten flew her in on his back. She heard Trunks and Goten yell and chase after her so she turned the corner and sat on a trash can in an alley. She cried untill her tears dried and it started to get dark. She was lost and far from home and never wanted to see Goten and Trunks again.
The sound of foot steps made her look up and she saw the sweet blue eyes of her mother.
"Oh honey," 18 said running over and pulling her in her arms. "I was so worried. Goten and Trunks showed up saying you ran off. Why would you do that?"
"I-I-"
"Shhhhh." 18 said gently rocking her. "I'm just so releived your alright. If anything had happened to you-"
"Mommy?" Marron asked in a quiet voice.
"What, angel?"
"I- I wanna be a fighter." Marron said in a rush. "I don't want to worry you any more. I'm so sorry." She started to cry again.
"What? I'd worry about you always." 18 said.
Marron sniffled. "I don't want to be a weakling anymore."



Poor Marron. I'll put up the next chapter soon okey? Please review.
