Sorry everyone. I wanted to get this chapter out last night but I watched Arika and after that I fell asleep.

*******Starla*******

I could hear everything that was happening. I just couldn't move. The only thing that I could do was just lie there listening to Trunks and Comet talk to me. I don't know when Gohan and Goten showed up but they started to talk as well. I was smiling in my mind as they were telling me strange things. My body felt like it was in a block of ice. I was cold all over and I couldn't move. That was the worst part, not being able to move. Things got silent for a while and I thought I was alone again. That was the other worst thing about it. I don't like being alone. I always had someone there with me. After a while I heard Vegeta come in and yelled at Comet and Trunks to go to bed. It surprise me when I heard him say that he was going to sit by me. I never thought that about him. True that I only known him for three days but he didn't come across me as that sort of a person. Now he was yelling at me to get up. I wished that I could. Suddenly I felt a warm spot on my face. Vegeta just hit me! I couldn't believe the nerve of that guy. He was still yelling at me when I heard Bulma, Trunks and Comet come running in. I heard them argue with Vegeta. Trunks sounded very pist off. I tried to move a finger or something. Slowly, I got my finger to move. That some movement must of caught their attention because everything got quite again. I heard Comet say that he saw me move. I started to get some of my warmth back because I felt Bulma's hands on me now. That must be a good sign.

Vegeta was still yelling at me to get up. It seemed like he was yelling in my ear. I was the one that was starting to get annoy now. Vegeta kept yelling at me. I wanted to punch him badly. I had to consecrate hard to move my arm up a bit. Vegeta sounded like he was yelling louder if that was even possible. My body got some feeling back besides being cold. The bad part was that I ached from my head to my toes. I was going to hurt Vegeta! That loud mouth was yelling in my ear. My arm came up a bit more. I was hoping that his face was close enough to me so I could get him. A bit more strength was all that I need. Before I knew it, my arm slump back down to the bed and I fell into a deep sleep. I didn't know what happen next.

*******Others*******

Trunks was yelling at his father to stop yelling at Starla. Goten and Gohan barely caught the sight of her moving on the bed. Vegeta was still in her face yelling at her to wake up. Everyone notice that her arm reached up a bit to Vegeta, but stopped and slump back down to the bed. She lye motionless again. Vegeta wanted to do some more smacking to wake her up but he stopped himself in time. No one moved for a few minutes as they watch her sleep. Bulma let out a sigh and told the guys to go back to bed. When no one moved, she pushed the younger guys out of the room and grabbed Vegeta's ear.

"What the hell are you doing onna!" Vegeta yelled as he was being pulled out of the room by his ear.

"Shut up for once!" Bulma yelled. "Leave her alone for tonight. She needs all of her rest so she can wake up." For once Vegeta didn't say a word.

The next morning, everyone was sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast. Each one went in to check on Starla before they went down to eat. She was sleeping deeply but she had more coloring now. Bulma told them that she should be able to wake up today or tomorrow at the latest.

*******Starla*******

Everything was soo dark and cold. At least I can feel the cold. There were black mist everywhere that I look. Strange. I just want to wake up and give Vegeta one big kiss on his check with my fist. The nerve of that guy. Yelling at someone that can't yell back. What am I doing? Here I am talking to myself when there is this mist surrounding my body. Okay. I think I took one too many punches from the veggie head. How can Bulma stand to be marry to that guy. She must really love him to put up with all of his crap. The black mist started to part. In the distance I could see light. I could feel the warmth from where I was standing. Back up a minute! Standing? The last thing I knew, I was in a bed. Oh well. Might as well see what that light is about. I started to walk towards the warmth.

*******Trunks*******

She is getting warmer. That is good. I placed my hand on hers. Mom had Dad go into town for awhile. Gohan and Goten went home a little while ago. Mom is in the shop working on who knows what with Comet. It was just me and Starla. Wake up Starla. Please. I miss your smile and your laughter. I know I don't know you for that long but please. I need you. A lone tear slipped from my eyes and landed on our fingers. I bent my head down to hers and give a light kiss on her mouth.

*******Authors*******

While Trunks were kissing Starla, she started to move a little. In her dream world, she was almost to the light. On the other side, she felt she belong there. When she opened her eyes, she saw Trunk kissing her. So she did what any female would do. She kissed him back.

Sorry that this chapter was short but I just wanted to get it out. I think another enemy is going to head for Earth. Starla can't help to think that something big is going to happen that will change her life forever. What can it be? Since Trunk had kiss Starla, will he take it to the next level? Who knows? I guess you will have to wait and see in the next chapters of Strangers from a Different World.
