A Twist of Fate-Chapter 3
"....and that's all I can remember."
They all looked at her in shock. Gohan piped up first.
"You mean you had been fighting an evil presence when this happened?"
"Yes," Trista said with a nod of her head. "Yes, I was."
She narrowed her eyes in concentration, then her face brightened.
'I remember, after that, that I felt like I was floating."
"Which would explain how you fell!" Bulma said rather smugly.
Everyone made signs at her to be quiet. Her shoulders came up. "What?"
"Please go on." Goku said, gesturing to Trista.
"Well, after that I could here strange voices, but they were muffled."
"That was us!" Bulma smiled.
Everyone turned to her.
"Be quiet!" They all shouted at once.
Bulma crossed her arms and stuck her nose up.
"After the voices, I could see myself battling that evil. I could see myself dying, and it kept repeating." Trista frowned.
"That would explain the nightmares." Goku said, rubbing his chin. Trista's eyebrows shot up.
"Nightmares?"
"You would cry out and start shaking, and at one point you started crying and shot up in bed. When I waved my hand in front of your face, you didn't respond. So I assumed that that was a result of the nightmares."
"Mmmmm." Trista ran her hands over her face, and gave a sigh. Then she stood up.
"Well, I can't very well do anything about it now." She grabbed her and went to sit on the patio.
Goku, Vegeta, Trunks, and Gohan all looked at each other.
"You think she's lying?" Goku asked.
"I don't know kakkarott." Vegeta said, folding his arms.
Goku looked at Trunks and Gohan.
"What do you two think?"
Gohan responded first.
"I believe her. I think we can trust her." He smiled.
Then they all turned to Trunks. His brow furrowed in thought, Trunks said, "She seems honest enough, but I would still keep an eye on her."
He turned and looked out the glass door. Trista had her head tilted back, looking as if she was sleeping. Suddenly, she raised her head and pivoted her green eyes on Trunks, catching him watching her. She gave a little smile and waved. Trunks cheeks turned red, and he turned his back to the patio. Vegeta watched this little transaction, and frowned. Yes, he thought, she will definitely have to be watched.
