Ch.11 Who Knew?

After they got home, Usagi noticed that the marks were gone. She stared at her arms as if she'd never seen them before or something. It amazing. The marks were completely gone. Even Trunks began to notice her staring. He questioned her once but all she said was that blood runs free and that her blood will run free soon too. A couple weeks later, Usagi dragged Trunks outside into a wide open field and had him spar with her. She mentioned that she needed to talk to him too. When they got there and picked a spot, Usagi sat down. Trunks looked at her. "Usagi? I thought we were.." Usagi nodded. "We are... demo I need to tell you something first." She nodded to the empty spot next to her. He sat down and she told him her experience and what happened. When she finished, his eyes were wide with shock. "That's... amazing!" She looked at him shocked. "No it's NOT! It wasn't amazing at the time because I was being murdered alive!" Trunks realized his mistake. 'I'm sorry...' He said. Her gaze on him softened. 'I know. It's alright.' Trunks shook his head. 'No it's not.' She smiled and leaned on his shoulder. The sun went down and they started home. (juss ta let ya knoe... they neva got around ta sparring... too much PDA if ya knoe wut i mean.)

A figure watched from the shadows. Watching, waiting. Trunks' head came into view, then Usagi. 'You'll pay Usagi. You'll die, and your blood will run free.' The person said to themselves. The person raised a dagger. It shimmered in the moonlight. The person took careful aim and let the dagger fly and....

"AAHHHH!!!!!" Usagi sank to her knees and clutched at her arm. "Usagi!" Trunks sat beside her and tried to quiet her. "Usagi! Stop screaming and tell me what's wrong!" She didn't have to tell him because at that instant, someone jumped from the tree and landed not too far away. Trunks looked up, straining to see the person's face, but the person seemed to know the angling well. Usagi's tears spilled to the ground and the person watched with a smile in their eyes. "Who are you?!" Trunks demanded. A low giggle startled Trunks. It wasn't any ordinary giggle, it was a giggle of pure hate and evil. "I warned her." The person whispered, in such a way that Trunks couldn't make out if it was a male or female. "I warned her that her blood would run free. Like I said before... 'When the knife goes in, blood runs freely like a river.' I warned her, and guess what Trunks? You can't do anything about it. You can't push a knife away because it will eat through your flesh, it is indeed like a knife through butter." Trunks stared in horror at this person. 'How does...?' "When you put the knife in... it blooms like a flower." Trunks' anger flared. He stood. "How DARE you? How dare you attack Usagi like this? She's never done anything to you!" The person laughed loudly and doubled over. "Oh no?! She's NEVER done anything to me?! How would you know Trunks? Do you know who I am? Can you read my mind as you can read hers? Tell me Trunks! How would you KNOW if she hasn't done anything to me? Tell ME!"

The person demanded. Trunks fell silent, listening to the sounds and sights that surrounded him. He could hear Usagi crying next to him. He could see the attacker poised, as if ready to fight. 'Oh Usagi...' He said to himself, forgetting once more. 'Why does this have to happen to you? I'm so sorry... if only there was a way I can get rid of this creep for you and make life sweet for you again...' He slowly started to gather energy, focusing. "Uh uh... no can do Trunks honey." The person snapped their fingers and Trunks felt something surround him and instantly, all his concentration disappeared. He tried the attack again and still it didn't work. He glared at the person and growled. "What didn you do?" He demanded. A low laugh. "My my Trunks, aren't we a bit demanding today. Simple enough. I juss bonded your ability to use your powers while I'm here. So that way, you can know how I would've felt." Trunks froze. "What?!" He asked astonished. A low laugh once again. "Bye now." The figure turned and disappeared into the darkness. Trunks turned to the weeping Usagi and slowly helped her to her feet. "Come on. It's alright. Let's get you inside." He led her in and suddenly, Capsule Corps. was filled with gasps of shock that filled the silent night.
