Later on, Chi-Chi left to go home back to Goku and Gohan. Goten wanted to stay with me. Uub was already staying. At this time, they was in the back yard, practicing. I was inside, thinking…I haven't heard from Trunks all day. Normally, he would be here by now. I phoned Bulma to see if he was all right. When he got to the phone, he sounded really upset about something.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Oh…nothing."

"It doesn't sound like nothing. Come on, you can talk to me."

"No…it's not a problem," Trunks said. He was crying, but also trying hard to hide the fact.

"You don't sound very happy. Come round to my place and talk about it. There will be no others listening in." I said to him. He agreed and came to my house. When I opened the door, he headed straight for the couch. He held his face in his hands and started crying. I sat next to him and put my arm around his shoulder.

"Hey there. What's up with you?" I asked. He took his hands away from his face. There was a big bruised area on his cheek, just under his left eye. "WHO THE HECK DID THAT?" I shouted.

"There's this bully at school. He keeps callin' me names and taking my lunch money. He keeps punching me as well." He said, still crying.

"Why don't you beat him up?"

"'Cos I'd get expelled if I do, he's the headmaster's son."

"Don't you tell the teachers?"

"Yeah, but they tell me to fuck off and grow up!"

"They swear at you? They aren't allowed to do that! Anyway, didn't you tell your parents?"

"I told my dad…he punished me for not hitting the bully! My cheek hurts loads." He said.

"Let me take a look at it." I said to him. I looked closely at the bruised area. It was very swollen; he could have possibly had a broken cheekbone.

"Didn't your dad take you to the hospital to check this out? I think your cheekbone's been broken."

"No, he was the one that did that to me, for not hitting the bully!" Trunks replied.

"No, you're kidding…that mean…I should have figured that was him that did that to you."

"What are you going to do?"

"Hang on, I'm thinking…do you want to stay here for a while?"

"Do you have any room for me, now that you have that new kid staying here?"

"Never mind about that? I'm asking you…do you want to stay here for a while?"

"OK."

"Right, that'll give Vegeta a while to calm down. Now, to deal with the bully." I called Uub's name. Uub and Goten came in from the back yard.

"Yeah, what do you want?" Uub asked.

"Could you do me a big, big favour?" I asked him.

"Yeah, sure, anything." Uub replied.

"Trunks, meet your new brother!" I told him. They all looked confused at me.

"What do you mean? I don't have a brother!" Trunks replied.

"Yeah, we know that…but the bully don't. He's gonna go to school tomorrow and when the bully starts on you, Uub'll scare him away and he won't start on you again. The headmaster won't expel you 'cos you didn't threat him!"

"Oh yeah, I get it!" Trunks said, cheering up a bit. I wiped his eyes.

"If this works, that bully won't start on you again 'cos he'll be too scared. Will you do it, Uub?" Goten asked.

"Yeah, I might as well…it could be fun!" Uub answered, laughing.

The next day, I walked Trunks the couple of miles to the school. Uub followed behind, making sure not to be seen. I led Trunks near to the doors and then I left him. Uub waited around the corner of the building. I left the scene and headed home again. Trunks waited outside for the school bell to ring…

"Hey, Underwear boy!" The bully approached him. "Give me your lunch money, you know the routine!"

"No, what if I don't want to!?" Trunks asked. The bully kicked him between the legs very hard! Trunks fell down to the floor.

"GIVE ME YOUR MONEY!" The bully shouted. Just then, Uub walked in front of Trunks.

"You bullying him?" Uub asked.

"Yeah, and what if I am?"

"If you are, then you will have to answer to me…if you hurt him or steal his money anymore, I'll get you, no teachers, no parents, me, and you won't like to be my enemy…pal!" Uub replied, shouting the last few words. The bully backed away.

"And to show you what I can do…" Uub said. He picked up a rock and threw it. It went for miles and miles; it landed in Outer Mongolia!

"That will be you if you pick on him again!" Uub said. The bully ran away, scared. Uub knelt down in front of Trunks, who was in terrible pain.

"Are you alright?" Uub asked.

"Where I've…just been…kicked? Do…you think…I'm…OK?" Trunks struggled to say.

"I'll take you home, you are in no condition to go into that building." Uub said. He picked Trunks up lightly and flew him home.
