A/N: Okay, so here's the next chapter. As I said, I got the next one out
later in the day. How's that for updating! Anywho, this chapter is kinda
short though. When I first wrote it down, it was just to move things right
along.
Ch. 2 - Using a Car Instead
Now Trunks was flying a little slower to hide his ki. He finally looked down at Marron who still had her eyes squeezed shut. 'Poor girl, I bet she's still scared of what I did'
"You can open your eyes Marron, I'm not going to do anything to you." He said very gently in her ear.
"I know, it's just I hate heights." Marron replied. It was her misfortune that no one trained her as much as she would have wanted to. 'I'll thank my parents for that'
"I'm not going to drop you." He began to chuckle. It seemed she trusted him but Trunks wasn't so sure about that.
"Goten said that and he ended up dropping me." Marron began to feel really tense in his arms. She also still had her eyes closed.
Trunks immediately felt Marron's muscles get tight and knew he had to do something about her miscomfort. "Would it help if we used a car?"
"Maybe."
"Better for me not to be seen anyway." He lowered to the ground and very gently put Marron down out of his arms. "Look, I'm really sorry I had to drag you into this Marron, it was the only way I could escape from there." When he said 'there' he meant CC and his family.
"It's all right, I don't mind really, I understand how you would like to get away." Marron replied. More than he'll ever know.
"You do?" Trunks gave her a questioning look. How could she possibly understand?
"Sure, your parents depend on you for everything while they're completely controlling your life. It's not that hard to figure out." 'Especially when you find yourself in a similar situation.' Marron thought.
"Oh…thanks." Trunks said, feeling a bit weird around Marron since she knew exactly what he was feeling. 'How did she know?'
"I needed to get away myself. It wasn't how I planned it, but it'll do."
"Well, I don't know how long we'll be away. Can you handle a long time being away from home?" Trunks said.
"How long did you have in mind?" Marron was holding her breath, oh Dende please let it be a long time.
"It could be from months to years, depending how I feel I guess, but what about you? I can handle years. I'm not sure about you though."
Marron had to bite her tongue from excitement. This was it! Her long awaited freedom from the Kami House! Marron was now trying to find the right set of words. She couldn't express how happy she was, not with Trunks anyway, he wouldn't understand her. So she told her answer as a true friend, "Trunks, with you in need of getting away and needing my help to do it, I can handle decades. Hell, maybe even centuries if I lived long enough." Marron smiled at him. Only it was a smile full of gratitude.
"Thanks Marron, you don't know how much this means to me." Trunks gave out a sigh of relief and pulled out a capsule from his jacket.
'Oh no, thank you Trunks for my freedom' Marron thought. They got into the hover car and Trunks began driving on the open dirt road.
A/N: I know it's short but I still have lots of other chapters in my little notebook that I have written down already. I'll try to put another one up on Thursday. I have to wait and see how much homework I have. If not I'll put it up on Friday. Please Review!
