-A Dark Age-
-Chapter Ten-
-A Betrayal and Many Escapes-

Derek and Orlando ran down the long hallway, which the hidden shower door led them to.
"Stop!" Orlando instructed Derek. The two stopped and quietly listened to the breathing and whimpering of someone up ahead. The two slowly and carefully walked down the long dark hallway.
"Who's there?" a female said. The two boys looked at each other. That voice seemed familiar to them, but whom did it belong to? they thought.
"It's Orlando," he responded.
"Orlando?" the female said. "Orlando! It's me your mother!"
Orlando felt a cold and chilly hand touch his cheek and then, someone embrace him. Derek flashed a light at the two and discovered it really was their mother.
"C'mon we have to get out of here," Orlando said.

"#17!" a guard shouted.
"Yes?"
"There's a commotion in the women's painting area. You must come quick!"
17 got up from his chair and told a female guard to watch Gohan and make sure he didn't escape. Soon he was out the door. The guard came towards Gohan and began to unlock the handcuffs from his wrist.
"What are you doing?" he asked.
"I'm setting you free. What does it look like I'm doing?" she retorted.
"Why?" Gohan asked bewildered.
"I've heard many stories about you Mister Gohan and I hate working for the Androids," she explained. "I only did it so I won't get killed. Now quickly go past does doors and down a long hall. Turn to your left and keep running until your out of this place."
Gohan looked at the girl with disbelief. Why would someone working for the androids try and help him escape? It was probably all a trap to try and kill him. The guard went over to the tied up Tiffany and began to untie her. Gohan soon found out it wasn't Tiffany, but a girl named Millie (You think I killed Millie off didn't you ^_^).
"Quick!" the guard hissed.
Gohan grabbed Millie by her hands and flew out of the doors. It seemed like a long never ending hall, but soon came a fork in the road and he took the left and kept running until he found another pair of doors. He opened it and found out that the guard was telling the truth as he flew into the forest and kept flying until nightfall.

#17 walked back into the room and looked around. Something was missing. He looked around and didn't find Gohan or Millie, which he and 18 had used as Tiffany.
"Guard!" He called out. "Where are Gohan and Millie?"
"They escaped," the guard said military like. She knew her life had come to an end, but at least she had helped to two humans escape; that was her goal since she had joined forces with the androids.
"Why didn't you stop them?" #17 yelled with anger.
"They were much to fast for me," the guard lied once more.
#17 looked at the guard and leveled his face to hers and said, "You set them free, didn't you?"
The guard slowly nodded and spoke without fear, "Yes, I did. For I pity you and your desire to kill."
#17 took his hand and punched her across the face, sending her flying to the other side. "Never have I been so insulted," he said. "Send her to the torture chambers."

"C'mon Bulma," Taminia whispered.
The footsteps grew louder and louder and louder. A figure began to come into view. Gabi grabbed Bulmas arms and Tiffany grabbed Taminia's and the four walked out of the door, closed it behind them and ran into the forest. The four ran into a cave and rested there for the time being. Footsteps were heard in the cave and all four froze.
"I don't like the sound of footsteps no more," Gabi whimpered.
"Me either," Tiffany agreed.
"Who's there?" a male asked.
"It's us Orlando, Derek, and Annalesi," another added.
Bulma flashed a light and everyone smiled. They were all so glad that it wasn't an Android or guard.
"I'm so glad it's you guys," Gabi said.
"Well, we have to get out of here and fast," Orlando said.
"Where do we go?" Tiffany asked.
"I don't know,"Orlando said.

Annabel chuckled evilly as she held a white beam in her hand. Patricia looked at her and slowly began to back up.
"Oh, there's no escaping me, princess," Anaabel said.
Patricia shut her eyes tightly and waited for the beam to come, but it never did. She heard Annabel scream and quickly opened her eyes. There right in front of her was an angel. Not one like Annabel, but an angel. A real angel.
Annabel threw it off of her and Patricia saw a glimpse of it's glowing face and knew it was her mother. Tears rolled down her cheek as she remebered her beautiful and fair mother.
Trunks stirred by her side and Patricia put her hand on his hand, keeping him from getting up. She stared at her mothered as she and Annabel fought. Then a flashing light lit up the dark meadow and everything was still. Patricia looked around. Nothing was there. Not Annabel or the angel.

"Patricia," the wind whispered. "get out of here now before Annabel comes back." Patricia looked around, wondering who had spoken to her . She couldn't get out with Trunks. She picked him up, but feel hard on the ground.
"Men," she mumbled, "are.... ugh! TRUNKS WAKE UP!" she shouted in his ear. Immediatly, Trunks sprang to life and stared at her.
"I think I just went deaf in one ear," he said, cleaning it out.
"Come on," Patricia said. She took a hold of his hand and the two ran into the forest.
"Patricia what's going on?" Trunks asked, noticing that she was always looking over her shoulde.
"I'll explain in that cave!"

~*~

"Let's go into that cave," Millie said to Gohan. The two flew into the cave kept flying until they heard the voices of people and the lights of flashlights dance on the walls.
"Gohan!" a female exclaimed and before Gohan knew it he was thrown to the ground by Tiffany.
"Tiffany?" Gohan asked.
"MILLIE!" Gabi yelled.
"GABI!"
"Everyone's here except for Patricia and Trunks," Tiffany wondered out loud.
"That's right," Bulma whispered.
"Something happened to them!"Tiffany exclaimed hsyterically.

~*~

Trunks and Patricia cautiously through the dark, chilly cave. They heard someone scream and then more voices hush whoever was screaming, then Patricia heard the name Tiffany.
"It's them!" she xclaimed excitiedly to Trunks. She sprinted further into cave, Trunks behind her. She came o halt and stared at her sister.
"TIFFANY! PATRICIA!" they exclaimed at the same time. "AHHHHHHHHHH-"
"Will you two be quiet!" Bulma hushed. "If you don't be quieter the androids are going to find us!"
"S-"
"Well, well, well," someone said to them. Everyone turned around and froze.
