He was floating. That's what he remembered doing. Floating in a void space all alone. No one was there. In a cage he had seen around him. Then he saw them. His friends and loved ones gathering around a small form. All he knew was an intense pain in his chest. Like a deep loss, it kinda felt like cell had shot a beam through him again, only a more powerful blast. He staggered over to his friends and family. All of them were crying over a fallen person… when he came close everyone glanced at him with sympathetic eyes and they moved. He couldn't believe it, Serena was now on the ground looking battered and bruised. Next to her laid the shards of the silver crystal.
"No!!!" He yelled and opened his eyes as the water fom his tank just emptied out. He sat on the floor panting heavily thinking about the dream. The door swung open and he was looking at the face of his blonde angel, without hesitation he hugged her to him.
"Trunks!!! I just finally dried myself off!!" She said into his chest.
"Sorry." He said easing up his grip. "Just glad you didn't get hurt too badly I guess."
"Yeah well.." She said leaning back some. " You were hurt just as bad if not worse." She murmured quietly in his ear.
"I'm fine now.. just wet." He said standing up with Serena.
"Good.. cause I've got good news and bad news!!" She said lowering her head.
"The bad news??"
"I lost…" She said.
"But they said it was a.."
"Tie?? Nope I lost consciousness before you did. Since you held on longer it declares you the winner. The good news is that I'm yours to do as you please with." She gave him a smile and the dream that had been nagging him since he had awaken was erased as thoughts of another dream that was becoming a reality. Without a second's hesitation he held her in his arms once again and kissed her deeply without worries of going too far and breaking any kind of rules. Neither of them notice the new comer in the room.
"You should really dry off first, half-breed." A voice said. "Your human side will allow you to become sick."
"He's right you know." Serena said locking eyes with him. "I'll see you in our room." She said and he walked away. Only until he reached the outside of his room and what she said sunk in.
"Did she say our room??" He shook his head and opened the door. He had sen her brush her hair ties and pins and Sailor stuff laid out on the dresser and he just stared at the items and a smile slowly creeped onto his face.
"Half-breed??" Serena looked at the one she called her friend.
"That's what he is is, just like you." He said making her glare at him.
"What is your problem??" She asked glaring at him hard.
"Why didn't you tell me you were Super??" He quickly changed the subject.
"becaused in truth I wasn't allowed to in case it would change history… but I wasn't thinking when I did it." She said seeing his eyes go from angry to hurt.
"Your family can go Super too??"
"Actually past the regular level of Super. My father probably the furthest, my Brother Gohan can be a close second when he controls the power from inside, Goten's been Super since he was five maybe."
"The little one can go Super??"
"Yeah, since he was five. When Gohan slacks off Vegeta is second, Little Trunks has been Super around the same time Goten had first went, and well if little Trunks is do I need to say more??" She said watching the shock pass through Bizz's eyes. Then out of the somplete blue sky he began powering up till where his hair went to blonde and his eyes to Green-blue.
"I didn't want to harm him completely. Had I known I wouldn't have held back." He said lowering his level again.
"Then part of you knew I'd be happy with him??" She said.
"What are you talking about??"
"If you could go super and knew he couldn't you would've gone out completely on him. I mean as bad as you wanted me you could've destroyed him and had him out the way." She touched his cheek. "But you didn't and you can't tell me it was because you didn't want to hurt him. You just knew I'd be happier with him… right."
"No.." he looked away from her. "I have my saiyan pride."
"Well, it was really noble of you to do such a thing." She said pressing her lips to his cheek . "I will eternally appreciate you for that, and with that kind of nobility I'm sure you'll find a nice Saiyan girl. If not I'm sure you'll like my cousin Mina, Me and her are exactly alike." She said as he closed his eyes. "See you around, Bizz." She walked away and he slowly brought a hand to his cheek
"But I won't find another like you." He thought to himself and left the lab.
"hmm… maybe.." Serena thought walking into the room she now shared with her soon to be eternal mate. She walked in to see him finally pulling off his wet pants. She stood there blushing like crazy. He began reaching for the the base of his shirt until she decided to say something.
"Can't a girl un-wrap her own gift??" She said watching him eye her strangely.
"That comment was very.."
"Mina??" Serena frowned and walked over ot him. "I know.. I guess the girl rubs off on everyone." She said as he went to reach for his shirt again. "but I was serious." She whispered in his ear making him tense slightly. She looked at his face where a blush was really evident.
"Sere..uh you…we.. don't.. do .. now." He couldn't piece the words into sentences, after a deep breath he tried again. "We don't have to do it now."
"But I want to." She said. "Besides with our moms we might not have the time to later." She kissed him while her hands slowly lifted the black tank-top he had been wearing. When it was over his head she had noticed droplets of water on his chest. Without hesitation she took the towel and dried his damp skin. She had barely flinched when his tail had been tracing a trail up and down her leg, and everytime it went up it would inch it's way up higher. "All dry.." She brushed some damp stands of hair out of his face. She flinched when his tail finally finally hit the top of the trail and stroked her back and forth. She pulled away from his grasp and sat on the bed. He moved to the door and locked it before crawling up next to her.
Hours later Trunks was awake and staring out the window to his far left. Things had been pretty hectic, exciting and rather… pleasurable. He gently rubbed where Sere had bit him at, no it hadn't been that bad at all. It was like a whole new world for him he could feel everything she could feel, and all he had to say now was wow. It seems that everything was perfect to no end, like his life finally had meaning and everything was calm.
He heard Serena roll over and whimper slightly in sadness. He could only imagine she was seeing everything he had gone through during his entire life. That's why he couldn't sleep now, he had seen everything she had gone through. Everything from the Silver Milennium to what she had gone through being Sailor moon for the first time to being where she is now. He could finally understand her way of thinking and why she cherishes friends so much. Love seems to generate her powers, the crystal, it seems to keep her going and to be confident evcerything will work out for the best. Too bad his life hadn't been so full of such thoughts and truths. He felt her snuggle closer to him and her warm tears hititng his flesh. She was wide awake now.. he could tell because she had attempted to wipe her eyes dry of tears. It pained him to re-live his past even through memories.
"How could you survive such a tragedy for all of your life??" She whispered.
"The thought of failing my mother and what other people who lived through the whole thing." He said not looking away from the sky.
"That's good motivation."
"It was the same as yours.. love. Although I didn't have as much as you did."
"Yeah well I needed all that I could get, besides I lived in the past. Where people were close and loved one another with few they hate." She sighed. "You see that distant ball there??" She pointed in one direction out the window. "That's the moon just after it's destruction." She said and he said nothing. "Sometimes I miss it, but I guess things happen for a reason."
"You learn quick, Hime."
"Trista!!!" Serena glared at the woman who merely shook her.
"Yes things could've been more.. appropriate" She hesitated watching the two lay there under the blankets. "Be glad you're covered."
"Right.. so what's up??"
"Get ready. You've got to get back home now if you want to keep things in a balance and let the others rest."
"Now??"
"Yes, get dressed and gather your belongings. I'll go inform the others." She said and then disappeared.
"Let's go." Serena tore from Trunks' hold on her and they both got dressed. Within moments everyone was in the throne room saying good-bye to King Vegeta and Lady Vegeta.
"I will miss you, Children." Lady Vegeta told Trunks and Goten.
"Miss them??" ChiChi and Bulma asked just before Bra began crying.
"Yes, they're energetic like a certain King." She sent a look at the King who merely shrugged. "I had more time to myself then." She said.
"Bye!!!" The two sleepy boys told the queen just after hugging them.
"Bye!!!" Everyone else said and yet another portal opened under neath them. Serena looked as they stayed suspended in the air for a second.
"I'M GOING TO MAKE YOUR EARS BLEED PLUTO!!!!" She screamed on the way down.
"that's and interesting way to go…" Bardock said and Turles nodded in agreement.
"That's probably how they came." Turles said.
"I hope they'll land ok."
"I'm sure they will. We've got to get you to bed." Midsma said helping the queen to her chambers.
