Ok so I decided to write more, I don't know if I am going to finish this story if no one reviews. Anyway here goes the next chapter.

Trunks touched down on his lawn, he walked in. he went straight to the lab where there was sure to be some scientist that could help Mina as well as some doctors. He was right; he put her down and was actually told to leave for the girl's privacy! He did though, he just, for some odd reason, wanted the girl to be safe.

It was an hour before the doctor came back out, he looked rather sad though and that worried Trunks. "What is wrong with her?" he asked.

"Her body has been refusing the food that she most desperately needs. She also has a fever," he told Trunks. Trunks felt bad for the girl, the little girl needed a mother but her mother was dead. Then it snapped, Pan, his best friend she will be able to help the child.

Trunks picked up the phone and called Pan's house. "Hello," Pan's cheery voice answered.

"Pan it's me Trunks, I a found small child today when I was coming home from work, she has been severely beaten by her father and she was starved. She is at my place now getting checked out by doctors and I have a feeling that she needs someone like a mom and since hers is dead I was wondering if you could come over," he said.

"Sure Trunks I will fly over right away," Pan said and then she hung up. Trunks went in to see how Mina was doing. She looked so helpless lying in the bed.

"Doctor how high is her fever?" he asked.

"It is about 103 degrees, we can't seem to lower it," he said.

"Is she conscious?" he asked.

"No, she has been out ever since you brought her in. I suggest that you find this girls mother sir, she really needs one now," he said.

"I am already on that doctor," he said with a smile.

"Oh of course sir," he said and went back to attending to Mina.

Trunks went up to his room the think, how could time be repeating itself?

FLASHBACK

"Doctor what is wrong with my mother?" 16 year old Trunks asked.

"Her body has been refusing the food that she most desperately needs. She also has a fever," he told Trunks. Trunks heart dropped.

"Is she going to die?" he asked.

"We don't know Mr. Briefs," he told Trunks, that night she had died.

END OF FLASHBACK

"Mom, why is this happening, I hardly even know that child. She had not had a chance to live out her life normally," he whispered, he felt his checks moisten.

Just then Pan came through the window and saw Trunks on his bed weeping. "Trunks is she dead?" she asked fearing the worst. She was afraid that another loss would kill her friend.

"No, it is just that is reminds me of my mothers death," he said.

"Oh Trunks I am so sorry," she said giving him a big bear hug. "Come on let's go see that little girl you told me about," Pan said.

"Ok, and thanks Pan, I really need you now," he said.

Pan entered the med lab with Trunks at her side. She looked at the little girl, she was sweating. Pan went over and told the doctor that she would sit with the girl. She took the washcloth that he was using and placed it back on her forehead. She could feel the fever through the washcloth.

Just then the girls' eyes fluttered open. "Who are you? Where is Mr. Trunks? She asked.

"My name is Son Pan and Mr. Trunks is over there, he called me so you could have another girl to talk to, I know about your mother and I just wanted to tell you that you are not the only one who lost your mother," she said.

"Who else lost there mother?" she asked, the question was innocent enough and she figured that it would not hurt to tell her.

"Well Mr. Trunks lost his mother five years ago, before you were even born. Talking about that how old are you?" Pan asked.

Mina started to count her fingers wirily, then she said, "Four."

"Oh have you gone to school yet?" Pan asked. the girl shock her head, it made sense she most likely would have gone to school this year but from what Trunks told her about Mina's father he would have never let her go to school. "How do you feel Mina?" she asked.

"I feel hot but other then that ok I guess," she said but then she let out a moan and her hand went to her side.

"Are you telling me the truth?" Pan asked, she was obviously lying.

"No, my side hurts, it is like my side is on fire," she said tears in her eyes.

"Ok, shhh your ok, you are going to be ok," Pan said trying to sooth the small child who was crying. "Trunks go get a doctor, she is on a lot of pain," Pan said.

Trunks left the room hastily, Pan was really serious about this and so was he. He was soon back with a female doctor and a male nurse. (I couldn't resist, my cousin is always telling me that I have to be a nurse and he can only be a doctor)

The doctor ran to her side and started to do all kinds of experiments and then she announced, "We have to get her appendix out NOW."

A whole bunch of doctors came in and Pan and Trunks was forced to get out so they could start the procedure.

Ok I don't know if I should continue, you will have to review before I write more, it is very easy for me to walk away from a story.
