Chapter 24:Reunion in Cherry Grove City
Trunks's Point of View
"Where am I?"I asked no one in particular,'Ray?Are you there?'
Nothing.I heard someone stand up next to me.I turned around and saw Ashley.
"Are you okay?"I asked.
"Yeah,"she replied,"What about you?"
"I'm fine,"I said.
"I think...We're near Cherry Grove City,"she stated.
"Which way is it?"
"Hm...I'd say it's a few miles north of here."
"All right.Let's go."
I started to float into the air when I remembered that we hadn't taught Ashley how to fly yet.
"You could carry me,"she suggested.
"O-Okay..."I stuttered.
I landed and picked her up.Then I immediately started to blush.It wasn't every day I had to carry a girl around.Although I did have to carry my mother once or twice,but this wasn't the same.
'I think Ray was right...I feel like I'm going to pass out or have a nose bleed,'I thought.
I heard a monster cry out and stopped my flight.I turned around in midair and came face to face with a giant green bird.
"Uh-oh,"Ashley said.
I lowered to the ground and sat her down.The bird lowered it's altitude and looked me in the eye.
'I should finish this quick with a Burning Attack,'I thought.
"Ashley,if you can,I want you to distract this thing for me.I'm going to prepare an attack that should beat it,"I said.
She nodded.I floated up in the air when she threw a rock at the bird,drawing it's attention to her.I did a series of hand movements as Ashley dodged all of the bird's attacks.Then I extended my hands,spread my fingers apart,and touched my thumbs and index fingers together.
"BURNING ATTACK!!!"I shouted.
The yellow ball of energy connected with the green creature and it disappeared.I let a sigh of relief when I saw that Ashley had never been touched by it.
"You know,you'd make a good fighter,"I said.
"Really?I never thought about,"she stated.
I picked her up again,making sure she didn't see me blush,and flew north.
-----
I landed once we were close to Cherry Grove City so people wouldn't see me flying.We walked the rest of the way and saw Ray sitting on a bench outside of a hospital.He still hadn't dropped out of Super Tororin.
"What are you doing out here?"I asked.
He looked up,"Oh,it's you two.Sarah and I ran into trouble after Zaffiroth did whatever he did,and she was wounded.I took her in there and the doctors told me to wait out here because I kept scaring people."
"Well,you are carrying a sword that's about four feet long and you don't look very friendly in that level,"Ashley pointed out.
"I guess you're right,"he agreed.
"If you want me to,I'll go check on her,"I volunteered.
"You're carrying a sword too,"he reminded me.
"Oh yeah.I guess I'd scare them too,and there's no way I'm leaving my sword out here,"I stated.
"All right,I'll go,"Ashley said.
"Okay.Thanks,Ashley,"Ray stated.
"No problem.I'll be back in a few minutes,"she replied.
She walked up the steps and through the doors.
"So,what happened to you two?"I asked,sitting next to Ray.
"Well,we went to check out some ruins nearby since we landed next to them.It turns out that they were pretty much alive.I pushed a button and an entire army of robots came after us.When of them hit Sarah,hard,and knocked her out.I destroyed them with my secret weapon and brought Sarah here,"he replied,"What about you?"
"I started to fly here with Ashley when a monster found us.She distracted it while I prepared one of my attacks and finished it off.That's pretty much it,"I answered.
"Hey,you two."
We looked up and saw Skye flying above us.
"What is it,Skye?"Ray asked.
"The others are coming this way,"the Phoenix replied.
"Any sign of Zapland or Zaffiroth?"Ray questioned.
Skye shook his head,"Nothing.And I even searched most of the surrounding area."
"Well,we'll get them soon.Right now,my only concern is Sarah,"Ray said.
"The doctors said she'll be fine."
I turned my head and saw Ashley walking out of the hospital doors.
"Good.How long do they think it'll take for her to wake up?"Ray asked.
"Real soon.She's already been in and out,"Ashley replied.
"Could you go in there and tell me when she wakes up completely?I don't mean to ask too much,but I'm real worried,"Ray said.
"Of course.I understand,"Ashley stated with a smile and walked back through the doors.
"Wow...You've changed since I first arrived in this dimension,"I noticed.
"It's that transformation.Ever since what happened on that boat,he's been acting weirder than usual,"Skye said.
An orange beam traveled past his head and went through a cloud.
"Next time,I'll make you the tarket.And I don't miss,"Ray growled.
"Fine,fine,fine.No more jabs at your ego,"Skye stated.
I caught motion out of the corner of my eyes and turned to it.The others were running towards us.
