Trunks followed her & eventually caught up. She was floating over a city looking down on it when he flew round.
"You're pretty fast." He said when he reached her.
"Thanks, you must be too if you managed to keep up." She smiled & looked down. Trunks stared at her before taking her hand.
"Come on, I'll show you around. I know a great place around here where we can eat." He pulled her down & landed in the street outside a little dinner. Zara looked up at the building, taking in every detail. She had never been to Earth before & didn't really know what to expect.
"This place serves some of the best hamburgers around. Come in, I'll show you." He pulled her gently into the dinner & led her over to a table. Soon a man came over.
"Hey Trunks, let me guess, the usual?"
"Yep, 16 double burgers & 1 for her." The man nodded & left. Zara sat in the opposite chair from Trunks & was staring down at the table. Trunks stared at her then looked away. Soon the man came back with their food & left again. Zara stared at the burger that was now in front of her.
"Um, what is this?" Trunks stared at her.
"It's a ham burger. It's good, try it." Zara looked up at him then back at the burger then took a bite out of it.
"Not bad. I could get used to these. It's definitely better then what I'm used to."
"Really? What are you used to?"
"You don't want to know. I'm not even sure if it is food."
"You mean they don't really feed you up there."
"I don't know. It's some kind of nutritious meal. It's more like grey slop if you ask me."
"That must be awful. No way I could live like that." He said before eating most of his burgers in a few seconds. Zara sweat dropped before looking back at her burger & finishing it.
Next, Trunks showed her around the city. They went to the arcade & round a mall that had been rebuilt. (He was glad that Zara wasn't interested in the shops.) After the tour of the city, they were back to the dinner from before. Zara looked at the clock in the window of a store & looked slightly panicked.
"What's wrong?"
"I've been gone to long. They'll be looking for me…"
"Oh, do you want to go back?"
"NO, not really. I hate that ship. But if they catch me with you then they really will be mad &…" she trailed off & looked down.
"Hey, don't worry," he said in a soft voice, putting an arm around her "I can look after my self. I'll be fine."
"Not if you stay around me…" She looked up at him.
"Don't worry. I'm a super sayain. I can deal with your parents." She looked at him, still looking worried. I hope so…she thought before looking over at his arm. Trunks looked at it as well then quickly put it behind his head & blushed. Zara smiled at him & he smiled back. It was strange how he was falling for someone he had only met a few hours ago. He put his hand in his pocket & she put her arm through his & they continued walking towards capsule corp.
Zara smiled to her self then saw some movement on the roof of a near by building out of the corner of her eye. She moved her head to see it again & Trunks looked as well.
"What's up there? I can't see anything." Zara ignored him & carried on watching before sensing something behind her.
"Hello Zara. I'm guessing that there is a good reason for why you are with him." Zara's heart sank. She knew what was about to happen. Trunks turned to see Tank standing there looking furious.
"I tried to raise you properly, Zara, I asked you to do one simple thing for me & you ignore me. This is the thanks I get for looking after you?" Zara still didn't turn round & simply stood there. Trunks stared at the blonde man.
"From what I hear, you didn't do that a good a job. She basically raised herself."
"You stay out of this. This is between her & me." Trunks glared at him. Zara had told him what her life was like & she never mentioned her parents. Tank looked at Zara angrily.
"Don't make me have to punish you. Turn round or I will." Zara's eyes widened. Trunks, get out of here. Get away from him now. Trunks looked at her confused. Tank watched them both.
"You have until the count of three. Turn round or you know what will happen." Zara looked at Trunks out of the corner of her eye, pleading with him. Please get out of here. You have to or he'll hurt you.
"One!"
"Zara, what are you talking about?"
"Two!"
"Just go now." Trunks stared at her then stepped in front of her.
"No, I'm not leaving you with him."
"Three, you should of listened to her boy!" Tank lifted his hand into the air then quickly brought it down. As he did so, a shock wave went out that made Trunks have to cover his face. When he brought them down he saw Zara standing in front of him, shaking. He looked past her to see that they were inside a large pinkish dome & beyond that was…nothing. All the buildings were turned to rubble. The ground had become dead. It looked more like a desert now & in the middle of it was Tank, smirking at them. Trunks stood up & walked towards Zara, his mouth open as he took in what had happened. He then glared at Tank.
"How could you? You destroyed all those innocent people for no reason!"
"They were all weak any way. I just want my daughter." Trunks growled. Electricity started to pulse round him.
"How dare you! You can't just come here & destroy everything when you don't get what you want!"
"I can do whatever I want to. Zara, put down that shield & get over here before I really get mad." Zara did nothing but shake. She kept her head down & her eyes covered by her hair.
"Hey! She doesn't want to talk to you! Besides, I have a score to settle! You destroyed my home. My mother was here! I can not let you get away with this!" he yelled as his eyes turned green. He kept glaring at Tank as his hair stood on end & turned gold. A golden aura burst outwards & pulsed electricity as he went ssj2.
"You are going to pay."
