Hey guys! Sorry it's been so long but somebody thought it was a good idea to give me mountains of homework to do after school. So since I'm feeling miserable from the flu (& slightly delirious) I thought I'd attempt to up date today! I'll probably be ending this soon so I can move onto more serious stories but if you want it to go on then feel free to give any ideas.

So last time Marron was really hyper & escaped & the boys decided to run off to the city. Wonder what'll happen now…*insert evil grin*

Chapter7: The parent chase.

Zara wondered round the woods, taking a lot of care so she wouldn't end up attracting attention. She looked round then sighed. I can't find her anywhere! Uh-oh…her nose started to itch & she quickly covered her nose. Can't sneeze, can't sneeze, just can't…she sneezed, & very loudly too so it echoed off the trees. She quickly looked around then sighed when nothing happened then heard someone running behind her. She turned round just in time to see Krillen jump over a bush with a fishing net in his hand that he put over Zara's head. He grinned then noticed that he had gotten Zara who was now glaring at him.

"Um…oops?" He said, not removing the net.

"Yeah, oops. What do you think your doing!" Zara said still glaring.

"I thought you were Marron…" He said & instantly regretted it.

"DO I LOOK LIKE MARRON!" Zara yelled at him.

"Um…no. I just…& you just…&," Krillen stuttered, "I'll go get a bigger net then…" He mumbled, still not taking off the net. He then ran off without taking it. Zara glared after him.

"Yep, mom was right. He is an idiot…" she mumbled as she got it off. She then flew up to help Gohan instead.

Once up there, she looked around for him but then was nearly knocked over by the boys who were flying off towards the city.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!" She yelled at them before noticing that they weren't helping. What the heck are they doing? I better follow them. She smirked to herself. Wouldn't want them getting lost…or worse…she then followed them.

In Satan city, Trunks & Goten landed not long after. Trunks looked round while Goten ran to a toy store & stared at all the toys.

"Hey Trunks, can we get something in here first? Can we?" He pleaded. Trunks kept looking around.

"We could but…we forgot to steal…I mean borrow your brothers wallet."

"Aw, you mean we can't get anything?"

"Pretty much." Trunks answered sighing.

"Then why did you say we should come here?" Goten asked, getting slightly annoyed.

"Um, it seemed like a good idea at the time…"

"& he wasn't thinking & it didn't occur to him that you need money." A voice said from behind them.

"Yea, that was it…hey!" Trunks said turning round to stare at Zara.

"Hey what?" she asked slyly, knowing it would get on his nerves.

"You know why! You followed us!"

"So?"

"So you're not welcome!"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"What it sounds like!"

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah!"

"Would you guys cut it out? You're driving me nuts! Just stop it!" Goten yelled, pulling on his hair slightly as the other two stared at him.

"Geese Goten, your so high maintenance. Calm down ok?" Trunks said turning away from Goten & putting his hands behind his head.

"Yeah Goten. Cool it." Zara said mimicking Trunks.

"What? Me need to calm down? You have got to be kidding!" Goten said, staring at his friends open mouthed.

"Well yeah 'ten. You should really calm down…" Trunks said.

"…Yea, it's un-healthy to be so up tight…" Zara finished off. Goten stared at them then collapsed on a near by bench.

"You're kidding right?"

"Yeah." Trunks said turning to face Goten again, smirking.

"Of course we were." Zara said doing the same as Trunks.

"Oh, ok then!" Goten said jumping up & grinning.

"So I guess this means that you've forgiven each other then. Right?" Zara & Trunks stared at each other.

"Guess so. It was fun while it lasted."

"Yea. We should do that again sometime. Oh, by the way, do you have any money Zar?" Trunks asked. Zara stared at him then searched her pockets.

"Um, I have a penny & some lint & oh! There's a chocolate bar in here!" She said as she pulled out everything.

"So that's where I put that!" Goten said as he grabbed the bar. The others gave him a weird look.

"What? I didn't have any pockets left so I put it in that dress when I was taking it into your room…" He said. The other two were still staring at him weird then they backed up a bit.

"So what do we do now?" Zara asked Trunks.

"I dunno. Lets look around for a bit."

"I didn't do anything with that dress!" Goten yelled but his friends ignored him.

"Ok, lets look around then." Zara said as she & Trunks started walking off.

"I didn't!" Goten mumbled as he followed his friends.

Meanwhile, Gohan & Krillen were still looking for Marron. Gohan had flown down to check on Krillen who now had a bigger net.

"Maybe we should set up a trap or something…" Gohan suggested as Krillen looked under a bush.

"Maybe…" he mumbled. Then Marron came running out of a bush & right past her dad.

"Aha!" Krillen cried & slung the net over her.

"I got her! Look Gohan, I got her! I…AHHH!" Marron, who still had her legs on the floor & a net over her head & torso, was still running & was pulling her dad along with her.

"AHH! GOHAN, HELP!" Krillen yelled as he was pulled through a bush. Gohan just stared then ran after them. He dived at Marron but missed & grabbed Krillen instead & they both were being pulled along.

"AHH!" they both screamed as they were pulled through bushes, nettles & a lot of poison ivy.

"GOHAN! DO SOMETHING!" Krillen yelled. Gohan raised his hand & blasted the wooden handle Krillen had been holding on to. It broke & they were both left lying down & watching Marron run away, with the net still over her.

"Gohan, why did you break the net? I had her!" Krillen yelled. Gohan sweat dropped.

"Lets just go do plan B ok?" Gohan said, pulling Krillen back towards the house.

Back with the 'chibi trio', they were wondering down a high street looking for a park.

"Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" Goten kept asking.

"Err, Trunks. I don't think we'll find a park around here. There are just a lot of shops."

"Yeah, you're right. If we're not careful we might bump into are mom's." Trunks said, sighing.

"Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" Goten said.

"Goten, shut up! We're not there yet." Zara grumbled. Goten nodded.

"Ok, are we there now? Are we there now?" Zara stared at him then rolled her eyes.

"Goten! Shut up! I'm thinking!" Trunks said looking around then noticing two people with really big spiky hair.

"OH shitake mushrooms…"

"What? What's wrong? What did you see?" Zara asked jumping up slightly so she could see.

"D…Dad…" Trunks stuttered. Goten's eyes widened.

"Ahh! That means mom's over there as well." Goten cried out, looking franticly around.

"WHAT! Your parent's are here?" Zara said looking around as well. Trunks grabbed Zara & Goten's hands then ran behind a bin & bench. Bulma & Chichi came out of a nearby shop & joined their husbands.

"Can we go yet woman?" Vegeta asked, obviously annoyed.

"Not yet Vegeta, we still have a lot of places to go to."

"Aw, but it's boring around here. Can't Vegeta & me just go somewhere else?" Goku asked his wife.

"Not yet Goku. We still have a lot more to buy." Chichi replied.

"But…" Goku started.

"No buts! You wouldn't leave us alone here with all these heavy bags would you?" Chichi asked indicating the 20 bags they already had.

"No…" Goku said, sighing.

"Good. You two stay then. Come on Bulma, I saw a shoe shop further down having a sale!" she said & they walked off.

Bulma stared at a bench & bin as she past it & thought she saw a black tuff of hair. That's strange, I thought I heard Trunks & Zara not that long ago as well…She thought & prodded Chichi gently with her elbow & pointed to the bin.

"Huh, is that?" Chichi asked.

"Think so. We'll see in a minute…" Bulma smirked & so did Chichi as they walked up the street with Goku & Vegeta not far behind carrying all the bags.

A/n: looks like they're caught. Or are they? I don't know yet some one tell me!

Goten: You're writing it!!

Me: Oh yeah…

Goten: why'd Trunks have to leave me with you?

Me: I'm not that bad. Just ill. Any ways, please review! They make me happy! Really, they do! Thanks to those who already reviewed! Thank you! Ja'ne!
