You think I own DBZ?

Marron ran all the way to the woods. She really wished she could fly. Maybe she should ask someone to teach her someday. But that was future stuff. She had to get to uncle to help her fight against the curse. At last her uncle's cabin was in sight. Arriving there, she knocked on his door. Android 17 opened it. He was wearing his usual clothes, orange bandana, gloves, jacket etc.
"Marron?"
"Uncle, there's something I need to tell you."
After a while, when Marron was finished explaining everything to her uncle, 17 stood up from the couch and frowned. He was thinking.
"You got yourself into quite a mess. I don't know if I'm the right person you should be asking. I hardly know anything about humans, let alone vampires!"
"Please uncle, you're the only one I can trust!"
"Hmm. This is a tricky situation. What do you know about vampires, Marron?"
"Well, I remember reading a book about them. Vampires can't stand garlic, which is true, I tested it on myself. And there was also this cross thing. That one's stupid, it doesn't work at all. I'm not sure if you can kill a vampire with a stake. Actually, you can kill anyone with a stake! But anyway, I didn't try it. And that sunlight thing, it does sting, but it doesn't kill you. As long as I wear sunglasses, I'm fine!"
"So, we know how to kill one of your kind, but to turn them back?"
"I don't know either. It would help taking care of that Mr. John."
They talked until the sun appeared in the sky. Marron left her uncle's house again. While she headed home, 17 went out for a bit of research. That's what he promised Marron. He needed to see who wasn't a vampire yet, and had to rescue him/her. He would have to start off with the Briefs, they hadn't been hit yet. At least, he hoped. Arriving at their house, he rang the doorbell. And again. Again. Why was no one answering? 17 feared the worst. Then he heard voices.
"No! Stop it! What are you doing?"
That sounds like trouble. 17 rushed in, only to find vampire-like Bra and Trunks trying to get away from her. Trunks, seeing that the newcomer startled Bra, ran away as fast as he could outside. 17 quickly followed him. Bra jumped right at them, snarling and hissing as loud as possible. Outside, they shut the door. They heard a large thump, a wailing, and then grumbling growing softer.
"Hey thanks man! My sister was about to get me!"
"No problem. But what exactly happened in there?"
"Well, Bra came home after playing with Goten. She said she had a swell time and all, but the thing is, she came home late at night. Me, a suspicious brother, asked her what she had been doing. Then, she jumped on me! And she was a monster!"
"You mean a vampire."
"What would you know about it?"
In a minute or 2, 17 explained all to Trunks about what happened. He didn't say anything about Mr. John or the curse. He advised Trunks to stay away for a while, maybe help others stay safe.
"Good idea 17. I'll go check if Pan's okay."
Trunks flew off, leaving Juunana behind. Trunks and Pan. Typical. Not bothering to think about it further, 17 went off, seeing what else he could do. He kept wondering about this Mr. John. Where did he come from? Why was he here? For the curse, maybe, but why now? The thing was, for the curse to work, everybody had to be a vampire, and so they could be eliminated all at once. Marron told him that, and what Mr. John was planning to do after they were all gone. 17 shuddered. He had to stop this curse, or it will be the end, as they know it.
********
What do you think? Curious what the rest of the curse is? And how it works? Or what's going to happen after that? And why now? Well, I'm not going to tell you now, ha ha ha! I want reviews, and then you can answer all these questions in later chapters!
