Chapter 12: All to familiar enemy
Marron sprang from her bed and jumped out the window. Smoke and fire were already erupting from the guesthouse. Moments later, Trunks was at her side. Slowly they lowered themselves to the ground and began searching for the cause while the security robots began to extinguish the fire. As they walked around the building, something caught Marron's eye. There were 2 figures standing in the middle of the yard that hadn't been there before.
"Trunks, what's out there?" She whispered.
The warrior turned to where she pointed, fire erupting in his own eyes. Marron gulped hard, knowing from his response who it was. Life had just gone from bad to worse. Cautiously, Marron followed behind Trunks as he approached the 2.
"Looks like the trash didn't disappear forever after all." Trunks sneered.
"Well well well, looks like Trunks has decided he wants to come out and play again." Marron's mom's voice called out. "And he even brought out one of his friends."
"Well, I'll be. Hey 18, she looks just like you." 17 laughed, as he looked her up and down. " `cept, she wears less clothes." He smirked then licked his lips.
This sent goose bumps up her spine. *Yuk, my uncle?*
18 walked over to the smaller blonde. "She's got horrible taste in clothing, that's all I can say." As she kicked some dirt in Marron's face.
Marron's ki shot up.
"Oh, look's like she has some degree of fighting in her blood." 18 retorted as she folded her arms in front of her chest.
"Marron, calm down. They only want you to get angry." Trunks said, trying to calm his girlfriend to some extent.
Marron smiled knowing this trick all to well. Her mother used to do it all the time when the 2 of them spared together. Suddenly, her ki went higher than any of the 3 of them had thought she reach. The ground started to tremble and the wind really kicked up around her. Then it simply disappeared.
This was the first time Trunks had ever seen these 2 androids shocked.
Quickly, 17 regained his composure and began searching for the tiny trace of ki that the human or sayian fighters had left when they masked their ki. To his disappointment, he found none. "You--you're an android?"
"You might say that." She smirked.
On the outside she looked confident and ready to fight the fight of a life-time, but inside she knew that what ever was going to happen would be worse than her worst nightmare ever could have dreamed of being. *Oh Dende, please help us* she prayed.
"How are you an android? Who is your creator? What is your number? How is it that you have a ki? Why do you look so much like 18? Why are you with the monkey boy?" 17 flooded her with questions.
18 watched the 2 ask her brother badgered her near identical twin. She noticed how Trunks always made sure 17 was never near her for more than 1 question.
"What's wrong Trunks? Afraid my brother will steal your girlfriend?" 18 asked smugly.
*No I am afraid he will try to rape his niece.* "I'm not worried about that. I am more worried that she will kill your brother and I won't get a punch in."
"Don't worry, if she some how managed to kill him, you 2 could come over and try to take me down. There are plenty of moves that you don't know anything about."
Marron smirked as she leaned up against Trunks. "Are you referring to the one where you fire 3 blasts, watch the response, block his attack, throw 2 `missed' punches on purpose, shoot 3 more blasts, appear behind him, put him in a body lock just before the 3 hit him, then you fill his body with blasts from behind? I mean in a nutshell."
17 and 18 looked, yet again, stunned.
Then 18's brows furrow and she frowned. "Who are you?"
"They call me Marron-- "
"Well I had already gathered that." She hissed.
"And I am not from this time--"
"So..."
"If you would let me finish one stupid sentence you would know by now."
"Geez 18, she even sounds just like you." 17 smirked.
18 sneered at her brother. "How'd you know my attack, girl?"
"Marron don't tell them." Trunks whispered.
"Shut up monkey-boy, let the girl speak already."
"Well if you wouldn't of interrupted her as many times as you did, then we would already be fighting you piece of out dated software and rusting metal."
"WHY YOU--"
Marron sprang from her bed and jumped out the window. Smoke and fire were already erupting from the guesthouse. Moments later, Trunks was at her side.
