Ch.9 A Wronged Betrayal
Usagi opened her eyes to see Bulma setting a tray on the night stand. "Bulma?" She
asked. Bulma laughed. "I thought I'd better leave you some food." Usagi held a
questioning look on her face. Bulma laughed again. "Baka me. You don't have one
clue to what I'm talking about. I'd tried to wake you up earlier but you wouldn't wake
up. It seemed that you were really tired so I let you sleep. It's nearly 11 now." Usagi
gasped. "Nani? 11?! I shoulda been up hours ago!" Bulma simply laughed again. "I
know, don't worry though. I just thought you had a tiring day so I let you sleep."
Usagi nodded. "Thanks Bulma." Bulma nodded and walked out. Usagi felt kinda
funny inside like something wasn't right. As she opened her door and stepped into
the hall, the feeling grew stronger, and as she walked towards Trunks' room, it grew
even stronger then before. She opened the door and peered inside. "Trunks? Are you
awake?" She asked. "Nope. He's not..demo..I am." Usagi's scream peirced the late
morning air.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Usagi flew into the living room and caught from behind by...Vegeta?! She struggled
out of his grasp. "Gomen nasai Vegeta-sama." She murmured. He just simply looked
over her shoulder to see what had thrown her out of the back rooms. Marli floated
into view, a smirk on her face. "Ohayo..Vegeta." Vegeta's eyes widened. "You! What
are you doing here? I thought we were rid of you." Marli just laughed. "Oh, you were.
You see. When Trunks called me last night and asked me to come over, I knew he
was trying to get me back, and I still had feelings so I came. We had a lot of fun. So
sorry it wasn't you Usagi. You would agree with me though. Trunks is a lot of fun...
in bed!" Marli threw back her head and laughed. Tears threatened Usagi's eyes. 'Demo
...I thought...Trunks...' Her hurt burned into anger. She turned and tore out of the house,
Marli's laughing echoing behind her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Trunks opened his eyes. 'Nani...' Everything about last night flooded his head. He sat
up. 'She really was here. Wait...where is she?' He looked around frantically. 'Shut up
Trunks! Don't think!' A voice screamed in his head. His eyes widened. 'Usagi?' He
asked. 'Shut up! Don't say my name! Don't talk to me!' She screamed. 'Demo..Usagi..
where are you?' He could feel her frustration. 'I'm at Gohan's house and I'm going to
stay here! Don't talk to me you lying bastard! You had Marli in your room! You SLEPT
with her!' Usagi mentally punched Trunks and he felt it. Instantly, he had a VERY big
headache and couldn't even think. "She knows..how?" He remembered, painfully, that
this morning he had heard voices and a scream. And someone shouting an attack or
something. Realization dawned on him. Usagi must have come to wake him up in the
morning and Marli must have gotten in the way! He growled. 'I'll kill that bitch. I
promise I will. She screwed things up when she came back into my life. I swear.. I'm
gonna kill her.' He heard sounds outside, like a battle or something. 'Oh yeah.. I'll kill
her...' He sighed. 'That is...if father doesn't beat me to it.'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Usagi sat crying on the couch. Gohan's arms around her. "Did you try and talk to him
about it?" He asked softly. She sniffed. "Not exactly." She suddenly stiffened. Gohan
tensed too. "Nani? What is it?" She burst out crying again. "What?!" Gohan nearly
screamed. "I have telepathy with Trunks..you remember right?" Gohan nodded. "Well,
he just thought these exact words..'I'll kill that bitch. I promise I will. She screwed
things up when she came back into my life." Usagi started sobbing again. Gohan
thought a moment. "You know somehting Usagi? I don't think Trunks was talking
about you. Ever consider that he might have been talking about Marli?" He pointed
out. Usagi nodded. "Demo... Marli still lives around here right?" Gohan frowned
thinking, then nodded. "Hai...so..then she wasn't really out of his life because he
could've seen her anytime or day." Gohan shook his head. "Usagi. You're one of my
very best friends but right now... I just can't see the real you. The you I know always
listens before doing anything. Where is the REAL you?" Usagi scowled. "Iie. The
real me died a long time ago." She answered. "But Usa-" "Shh!" She cut him off.
Words invaded her thoughts, but not directed to her. 'Die! You bitch! You ruined
everything! How could you be so selfish? Lying to my father AND Usagi! You will
pay Marli! Usagi hates me now because of you. She'll prbably never speak to me
again..all because of YOU!' The thoughts stopped. Usagi turned to Gohan. "Come
with me. I need to pay a certain bitch a visit."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Aww..Trunks...you wanna play? I'm game." A red hot ki ball shot at her, she dodged
it swiftly. "Trunks...come on.. I know that isn't your best." Trunks' eyes flashed. "You
ruined everything! Why do you think I actually LET you stay last night? I didn't want
to hurt Usagi! I didn't want her to know because I KNEW she'd misunderstand and
leave me again. And now that she has...give yourself a pat on the back... go ahead and
smile...it'll be your last." Marli laughed. "Trunks... don't be so violent. Why don't we
just go back in your room and play a game a bit more fun? I'm sure you have fun last
night, it sure sounded like it." Trunks glared. "SHUT...UP!!!" He let loose a shower
of ki blasts, not really aiming. He heard Marli scream a couple of times. He finally
stopped. She looked up at him with false hurt in her eyes. "Trunks." She whined. "I
don't like this game anymore. Can we please go inside?" Trunks opened his mouth to
answer but someone cut him off. "Stop right there!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He turned to see Usagi in her sailor kufu. She brought one hand up, crossing her
face and her other hand above her head. Then she brought the one crossing her face
up above her head and brought in down in a wide circle and brought it up again...as
if drawing a crescent in the air. Then she brought her arm down in front of her face
and brought her other arm to rest on her arm. "CRESCENT! MEMORY! STRIP!" A
beam of light emitted from her finger, which was held in the shape of a gun. It
missed Marli. Marli laughed. "You missed! I can't believe you missed!" She started
laughing while Usagi just stood there her eyes intense. Suddenly, where the beam hit,
exploded and a shield like structure wrapped around Marli. It brought Marli up into
the sky and dropped her. Her body fell fast but stopped abruptly...two inches off the
ground. "What did you do to her?" Trunks asked. 'I erased all her memory of how to
use her powers. She'll have to re-learn it all.' Usagi explained in her head. "Oh.."
Trunks voiced. 'And...Trunks?...' She thought. 'Yeah.' He answered. 'I... gomen nasai..
for not believing you. I don't deserve to be with someone that I can't even believe.'
Usagi hung her head. Trunks walked over and hugged her. "I love YOU, Usagi." He
said and even though he couldn't see it....Usagi smiled.
