First I want to thank all my reviewers, I really love you guys. This is my
first fic and I was really terrified about what people would say. Everyone
had such nice and supportive comments and really appreciate it.
Oops! I forgot to do my disclaimer last chapter! Gaaaahhhh! Please forgive me and don't sue me!
Disclaimer: Don't own 'em, don't claim to.
Ok, now to respond to people's questions:
To Eric S.: Yeah, I forgot about that. What if Marron & Co. could sense the energy from the attacks he was blasting rather than from 17 himself? Or maybe when 17 switched from being a bad guy Bulma tinkered around a bit and made him the new and improved 17! She can do it, she has the technology, she can make him better, stronger, faster than ever before. So now he has a ki signature.
To AGlaxiaGoddess: Well in my story Trunks is a full saiya-jin, so his mother was sort of like Bulma's saiya-jin counterpart. It doesn't exactly work but just suspend your disbelief and go with the flow. P.S. Thanks for the grammar tip, my mom is an obsessive editor and she would hang me up by my ankles if she knew what I've done. *Sniff*, I'm so ashamed of myself, but I'm sure that I'm gonna forget in about 10 seconds and make the same mistake again.
To Aerith: Yay! A fellow T/M fan! I'm so glad the fight scene was clear, that was one of my big worries. The idea of Kuririn trying to cook like that just cracks me up; I couldn't resist writing about it.
To Vaarj: Yup! It's everyone's favorite purple-haired warrior, Trunks!
To bluefire: Thank you! I am trying to be original but everything under the sun has been done before, and it's kind of hard to come up with a completely unique idea.
Yipee! Now on to the story!
**********
Marron sat next to the bed, changing the bandages on the injured stranger. She and Goten had brought him back to their hideout and cleaned him up. Kuririn had confirmed this new arrival to be a saiya-jin when he found the crashed space pod near the battle site.
Marron sighed and looked down at him. He really was in bad shape. Even with saiya-jin healing powers he had been unconscious for six days so far. Either she or Goten had stayed with him constantly, in case he woke up. She wondered what he was like.what his name was. what color eyes he had. She sat up and scolded herself mentally, she didn't even know him!
She was just finishing tying up the final bandage when Goten sprung into the room, followed by Kuririn.
"Hi Marron! Soups on! And don't worry, I made dinner today so you don't have to choke down Kuririn's cooking," Goten said happily.
"Hey!" Kuririn shouted, looking indignant, "My food isn't that bad!"
Marron rolled her eyes, "Sure Dad," she said as she walked out towards the kitchen. She was glad Goten took care of the food; he was actually a good cook. 'He would have to be with how much food he eats,' she thought, 'no one can eat that much and not learn anything about how to prepare it.'
She reached the kitchen and smiled at the amount of food Goten had made. He claimed he was making extra in case the injured saiya-jin woke up, he insisted that a healing body needs extra food, especially when that body is a saiya-jin who hasn't eaten for a week. In reality it was only an excuse so Goten could have an extra portion. She laughed and sat down to eat.
**********
Goten yawned as he sat down do the "night shift" for their guest. He was glad that this person had come here; he had always wanted to have another saiya-jin around. It was hard for him to be the only one, Marron could understand a little of what he was going through because she was half android, but sometimes he felt very alone. He wanted to know more about saiya-jin culture and life, to get a better understanding of his father's race. He was glad to get the opportunity to do so, now all he needed was for the other saiya-jin to wake up.
At that exact moment the stranger's eyes snapped open and he sat up and glared at Goten.
"Who are you?!" He demanded, "Where is this place!"
Goten smiled at him and said, "I'm Goten! What's your name?"
"I am Trunks, Prince of all saiya-jins!" He replied imperiously, "Now answer my questions!"
Goten scratched the back of his head innocently, "Which questions?"
Trunks looked closely at Goten, "Your hair! No, you couldn't be.or are you?" he mumbled in disbelief, "Are you a saiya-jin?"
"Yup!" Goten grinned, "Well, half saiya-jin anyway."
Trunks looked like he was about to faint again, "There are others." he whispered.
Goten's face fell a little, "I'm the only one here." He said, "My father and brother.they were killed."
Trunks turned away from him, "I too am the last of my family, and all of Vegeta-sei. I came here looking for any others who might have survived the destruction of our home planet, it appears that you and I are the last."
At that moment the door swung open and Marron strode into the room. "He's awake!" she said looking at them.
"I am Trunks, prince of all saiya-jins." The purple-haired saiya-jin said, looking her up and down. 'She is the most beautiful women I have ever seen,' He thought, then he shook his head, trying to clear it, 'I have been in a space pod too long, acting like this over the first women I see. This is no way for a saiya-jin prince to act! Besides she probably has a mate already'
"I'm Marron." She looked at him trying to stop her heart from beating to loud. 'He's gorgeous!' she thought.
"Hi Marron!" Goten said, "Hey Trunks, you must be hungry, you've been out for almost a week!"
Trunks stomach rumbled loudly at the mention of food, Marron laughed.
"Ok, Goten, you and I will go make a midnight snack while Trunks here gets dressed" Marron directed, turning to Trunks she said, "Your armor was pretty beat up when we found you, but there are some clothes you can borrow from Goten over there in the top drawer on the left. When you're done we'll be in the kitchen, which is the room at the end of the hall."
Trunks nodded and Goten and Marron left the room.
**********
"So Goten, what do you think of our guest?" Marron asked as she shuffled around the kitchen gathering together enough food for her and two hungry saiya-jins.
"Trunks? He's nice, I want him to stay awhile. It would be cool to have another friend! Maybe he would spar with me!" Goten said happily, grabbing the ingredients from Marron as she sat down.
She heard a small cough and turned to see Trunks standing in the doorway, picking at one of his bandages. "Hey Trunks, come on in, take a seat," She said.
Trunks came in and sat down at the table with Marron while Goten stirred a pot on the stove.
Trunks looked at her, "You're Human?" He asked.
"Not quite," She replied, "my father is human, but my mother was an android."
"An android? Like that thing I fought?"
"Yes." She said hesitantly, "He is my mother's twin brother."
Trunks leapt back from the table, sending his chair flying across the room. "You are allied with him?!" He asked, glaring at Marron and Goten.
"No! He is broken, corrupted. He killed my mother because she wouldn't join him." Marron screamed at him. "He killed Goten's family and all our friends. He has killed everyone, except us two and my father, he may be my uncle, but he is not my ally."
"Why do you not avenge them and kill it!" Trunks asked.
"You fought him, you've seen how powerful he is, we don't have enough strength to beat him, so we run, we hide, and we wait." Goten said.
Trunks scoffed, "I am alive today because my enemies are dead."
"Well 17 seems to have kicked your ass pretty hard, so it seems that he is your enemy now too." Marron said.
Trunks growled, "Since my space pod was practically destroyed when I crashed on this miserable dirt ball, it appears that I am stuck here, so I propose to help you fight, because you look like you could use it." He said.
Marron fumed, "We do not need your help," she said, storming out of the room.
"Don't worry about her," Goten said, putting a heaping plate of food down in front of Trunks, "She is just grumpy from not getting enough sleep. You can stay with us as long as you like."
**********
Okay! I finished part two! Yay! This one was really hard for me, I had some serious writers block.
*Sniff, Sniff* school is starting tomorrow! So I probably wont get to update as often as I'd like, but I will try to get 'em up as fast as I can
Please give me feedback, and I know everyone says this, but please review, it really helps to know that someone out there is actually reading this stuff.
