"So are you ever going to answer me?" Trunks asked.
Morrie smiled and walked back to the other side of the roof ready to climb back into her room. "Heh… depends on if your saiyan-jin or not"
"What?? How did you know I was a saiyan-jin?" Trunks' asked puzzled
Morrie climbed back over the edge of the building and disappeared from sight. Then her head popped back up. "That's half saiyan-jin" she smirked then disappeared again.
"What the hell..." Trunks thought, then raced after her. Morrie was already in her room, smiling and waiting for Trunks to follow her. "How do you know I'm a saiyan-jin?…"
"That's half" she answered
"Yes, well… how do you know that?... I'm thinking your not telling me the whole truth of how you know who I am"
"I never really told you anything he-he-he" she smirked "My father before he died used to go on and on about how his sister married a saiyan-jin. That saiyan-jin just so happened to be Goku and that means his son would be a family member now wouldn't it?"
"Gohan?" Trunks asked
"Yes Gohan. I never really knew him and I'm sure he didn't know about me, but that's okay I guess." Morrie Shrugged. "My father also went on about you, Vegeta, Bulma and every other Z-fighter. It's funny really… When I was younger I dreamed of having the powers you do, but sadly I'm not saiyan-jin nor do I have any powers, like flying. Heh flying was the biggest dream I had" Morrie quickly shocked those thoughts from her head and turned to face Trunks. "Those are children's dreams I don't dream about that anymore."
"Why not?" Trunks asked softly.
"Look at me Trunks do I look like a kid to you??!! For that matter do I look like a dreamer to you?" Morrie half yelled. "It looks like you've been dreaming of something, but what?" Trunks sighed back with an ever-caring sound in his voice.
"Why do you care?" Morrie said holding her tense arms at her sides, her fist tightening.
"Do you not want me to?" Trunks said reaching out his hand to Morrie, but then stopped after seeing the look on her face. He looked back into her eyes, he saw the same coldness in them and he shivered. "Her eyes, how can they be so cold and heartless. Their dead, but why? How can they be dead? How can she be right here standing in front of me, alive no less, but her eyes…… are dead."
"No… I …… uh" Morrie tried to say, but was cut off.
"Listen", Trunks said as he was walking up to Morrie "I'll always care, no matter what happens I will. That will never be changed. All I want is to help you, or just maybe be your friend. It doesn't seem like you have many friends now."
Morrie sighed "Your never going to give up are you?"
Trunks smiled "No, I guess not." He said putting his hands on Morrie's shoulders. Morrie jumped back and started blushing. After realizing what he did he blushed even more then Morrie. He turned around trying to hide it.
"Ahem..." she said clearing her throat "You wanted to know where I live, well your looking at it. The way I get food is by buying it … duh!" Morrie looked through an old chest then pulled out a small roll of cash. "Well, darn. This is all that I have left? This is not good. How in the hell am I going to get money?"
Trunks looked over his shoulder "Huh? Your out of money." He blinked then got serious " That does it your coming with me." He said firmly
Morrie blinks then back away to the wall. "Umm no! That's ok really it is. I don't want to impose"
"Not at all" Trunks smiled, than scooped Morrie into his arms.
"No really you don't have to…." Morrie said but it was to late for they were flying high over head, back to the Capsule Crop. building. "Well, darn" She said sadly and turned her head down to the city below.
"What was that?" Trunks asked
"Noth--ING!!" She sarcastically said back to Trunks
"Alright then." Trunks laughed "We're here" he said setting her down on the balcony, then he hopped down and led Morrie to the door. She froze unwilling to move. "Come on ..." Trunks said pulling Morrie closer to the door.
"Let go of me right now. Unhand me!!" Morrie shouted hitting one hand on Trunks' arm.
Trunks looked at Morrie and let go of her arm. "As you wish." He said. Then Morrie fell backwards onto her butt. Morrie glared at Trunks then got back up and followed him through the door of the balcony.
"Are you always this mean to women" Morrie spoke under her breath.
Trunks looked over his shoulder at her "No." he said then turned his head back around. "The only other women I know is my mother."
Morrie looked up "Must be nice to know your mother still" she said shaking her head. Then turned her head down the to floor once more.
"Trunks?! Is that you??" Bulma yelled as she was running down the hallway. "Oh my god I was so worried about you," She said holding Trunks' face in her hands. Then she looked over his should to see the young girl, her head still hanging low, her long wind combed hair hanging over her face, her arms crossed in front of her. Morrie slowly raised her head to face Bulma. The first thing brought to Bulma's attention was Morrie's "lifeless" eye. She slowly stepped back when she saw them. "Who might this be Trunks?" Bulma said elbowing her son in the side " Wait don't tell me…. She your new girl friend?"
"New?" Morrie thought.
Trunks groaned "No mother. We just met I wanted her to come here, because she has no food and no place to stay" He said slightly lying. When Morrie went to correct him, he only grabbed hold of her arm and squeezed.
"Oh? Where's your mother and father?" Bulma asked
"Their dead" Morrie spoke coldly once more
"Oh you poor thing. Come with me my dear" Bulma said pulling Morrie to her. "I'll get you fixed right up." She said pushing her towards her room. "Trunks draw a bath for her". And with that she disappeared into her room with Morrie.
"Uh…. Ok…." Trunks blinked then walked to the bathroom to start a bath.
"Hmmmmmm, we're going to have to get you some new clothes tomorrow. I'll have Trunks go shopping with you. Meanwhile you can ware this" Bulma said pulling out one of her old t-shirts and sweat paints.
"No really, that's ok." Morrie reassured her.
"None-sense. Now what might your name be?" Bulma said handing the clothes to Morrie
"It's Morrie" She spoke quietly
"Morrie? Well that's a beautiful name." Bumla said putting her hands on her hips Morrie blushed a little and was turned around by Bulma. "Okay lets give you a bath and then you can put these clothes on, then I'll get a bed ready for you. THEN tomorrow you can go shopping. He-he-he" Bulma laughed
"What's so funny" Morrie asked
Bulma stop and faced Morrie "I can tell he kinda likes you" She winked then started walking again.
"Huh??" and with that Bulma only laughed more. Trunks came walking up to them and said the bath was ready. Bulma nodded and walked Morrie into the bathroom.
"Really you don't need to do any of this" Morrie said quietly
"Well we are. So you best be thankful" Bulma smiled "Now here are the towels and if you needed anything just call for me, Bulma he-he-he" She said then walked out of the bathroom and shut the door.
Morrie blinked then look at the bathtub, she put her hand in the hot water and sighed. She glanced towards the door and saw bug. She jumped back and screamed. "Nanda ka?!?!"
Trunks came racing down the hall and burst into the bathroom "nande-koto-wa?!?!" He exclaimed.
"umm eerrmmm nothing." Morrie said, jumping back.
"hanash'te…." Trunks asked "I heard you scream"
"I umm saw a bug" Morrie said, then leaned against the wall.
"Is that it?" Trunks asked
"Hai" Morrie replied
"Well you better hurry up and bath so we can get you into bed" Trunks said then walked off.
Morrie walked over to the door and shut it. "Arigatou" she whispered then went over to the bathtub, sat down on the edge.


"Kaa-san?" Trunks asked his mother
"Yes?" Bulma replied
"Is it possible that even thought I woke everyone up from the terrible nightmare we once dreamed, people are still living a nightmare? I mean after all many people lost loved ones and are left alone in this world." Trunks spoke softly
"Is that why you brought her to us? You feel like you have to help her?" Bulma said softly "You can't help everyone in the world. As much as you want to you can't."
"Well I want to help her. I know I can't help everyone in the world but I at least want to help her," he said back to bulma.
"How?" Bulma said to her son "How are you going to help her?" And with that she walked away. Trunks sighed and looked out the window.
"Bishounen" Morrie said then got dressed. She quietly stared at herself in the mirror and took a deep breath. Five minutes later. Bulma knocked on the door "Yea?" Morrie answered.
"Are you all done in there?" Bulma asked
"Hai, I am" Morrie said then opened the door and stepped out.
"Okay" Bulma said smiling "Come with me" She said then led Morrie to her room.
Morrie looked around the room in aw. It was huge to be blunt. She turned to say thank you but Bulma was long gone. Morrie walked slowly to the window and leaned gently on the Frame. As she cast her gaze downward all could be seen was a small circle of light from a street lamp and the shadows of rats racing past in search of food. She sighed one of her dismayed sighs and turned in for the night. As she lay there, in the huge bed, with the warm covers wrapted around her frail body, all she could think of, was Trunks. He was so sweet and gental to her.. most the time. And she had been cold and heartless back. She smiled slightly and spoke solfly "Trunks, I will find a way to make this up to you.. somehow."
