3. The Escape
Gohan and the other Z Warriors continued to fly at full speed. Gohan was still clutching the now stone arm of Master Roshi. Piccolo had let go of Gohan and he was flying by himself now. Thousands of beams were being shot at them from Cement who was slowly gaining on them. Many of those beams were hitting them.
"What are we going.. Ahh" Krillin starts but is then hit by one of Cements beams, "to do" he finished looking at Gohan, Piccolo, and Trunks.
"You guys go ahead, I'm going to hold him back for awhile" Trunks says
"Trunks no, you'll be killed" Piccolo says and upon hearing this Vegeta looks back at his son with a slight sign of worry on his face.
"I'll be fine, just go" Trunks yells and then turns around. The others power up their speed and fly further. Trunks stays in the air. Cement stops shooting his attacks and stops in front of Trunks.
"What are you doing Trunks" Cement says wearing an evil smirk on his face
"This has to stop now Cement" Trunks yells in anger towards him
"Are you prepared to fight me?" Cement says looking for cockier than ever.
"What happened, I thought we were friends?" Trunks says trying to buy the others some time to hide.
"You're more dumber than I thought, how could I be friends with you, a Saiyan, the same dirty race that destroyed mine. I was never your friend; I was just using that lame friendship card so I could steal your time machine. There had to be a reason for you going back so much and once you told me your story about Cell, I knew I had to go back whatever the cost" Cement spats at him
"You're sick"
"Well I might be but better that then dead"
"What do you thinks going to happen when you face Gohan, do you think you'll be able to turn him to stone as easily as Master Roshi, my god Cement an old man" Trunks says with a look of disgust
"You think I wanted to hit that old man, I was aiming for Gohan the whole time, if he hadn't have started to fly just then I would have hit him and then no one would be able to stop me"
"Well you did miss him and now you're going to be stopped"
"By who…you?" Cement laughs
"Gladly" Trunks screams and flies at Cement. Trunks catches him off guard and punches him in the face sending him back a little. Trunks fires a blast but Cement just hits it down into the ocean.
"No you've done it, now I'm mad!" Cement yells and flies at Trunks and slams his knee into his stomach, Trunks spits out blood from the shot and then Cement elbows him in the back of the head. Trunks starts flying down towards the water but Cement beats him to it and kicks him back into the air.
Trunks flies back and stops himself in mid-air, he looks down to see Cements Granite Gun coming towards him. Trunks quickly gets out of the way but then Cement flies back up and gives him and uppercut. Trunks falls back in the air and catches himself but then Cement punches him hard in the face causing him to almost fall into the ocean again.
Trunks stops himself and regains composure and looks up to see Cement fire a giant blast at him. There's no time to get out of the way and it hits Trunks blasting him into the ocean. Cement looks down to see the water calming itself after the attack. He searches the water for any sign that he is coming back up and finally gives up.
"Pathetic fool, he should have never tried to attack me," He says wiping blood of his mouth from the one time Trunks hit him. He then flies off. Meanwhile Gohan and the others have landed in a secluded area in the middle of nowhere.
"Why are we stopping?" Yamcha asks worried "He could be right behind us"
"I'm worried about Trunks" Piccolo says
"My son can take care of himself, he doesn't need anyone's help, especially from you Namek" Vegeta yells annoyed.
"Oh is that why you left your own son back there to die" Piccolo shouts
"I don't even know why I ran, I should have stayed back to take care of that child Cement, by the way Trunks was going on about him I though he was some powerful warrior not a mere boy" Vegeta says completely ignoring the words of Piccolo
"I'm going back to see if Trunks Is alright, you guys continue and head to Bulma's" Piccolo tells them
"But Piccolo…" Gohan starts
"I'll be fine Gohan, now go" Piccolo yells in urgency and flies back towards the direction Cement and Trunks were. Vegeta watches him leave and grunts in distaste. He then starts to fly away. The others start to leave but Gohan is moving so Krillin stays back.
"What about Master Roshi?" Gohan asks Krillin
"You better just leave him here, there's nothing you can do" Krillin tells him
"You're right, let's go," Gohan says and they fly away leaving the statue of Master Roshi behind.
Piccolo flies back to where he is sure Trunks stopped and sees nothing. He stays floating in the air looking forward, back and all around to see nothing but ocean for miles.
'How could the battle already be over, we only left a few minutes ago, what happened to Trunks' He thinks to himself and then soars off towards Bulma's house.
The others land there with Vegeta ahead of them all and he walks inside before them. Before the others even get to the door they hear Vegeta scream.
"NOOOOOO, That son of a bitch, I'll kill him" Vegeta screams and bursts out the door. He is quickly out of sight.
"Vegeta!" Krillin yells to no avail. They all then run into the house to see what he screamed about. They run into the kitchen to see Bulma lying on the floor with 2 year old Trunks next to her. They are both stone statues.
"Bulma….Trunks….How did he get here already and leave?" Yamcha says near tears.
"Oh no my mother and Goten!" Gohan yells and starts to fly out the window.
"Gohan wait!" Krillin shouts and Gohan turns towards him and yells.
"He could have already gotten to them by now!" He then flies away leaving the four of them to stand around the stone figures.
"I'm going with him" Krillin states and then flies out the window after Gohan. Yamcha attempts to go to but Tien stops him
"We should wait here for Piccolo," He says and Yamcha nods and sits down. Choazu looks up at Tien.
"Do you think Gohan's mother will be alright?" Choazu asks
"I don't know Choazu, I don't know" Tien replies in worry.
Well that was the third chapter, I'll have the next chapter, The Battle Begins, up soon.
