Girl of My Dreams

Chapter 2

Trunks sat under a tree the next day at sunset writing in his journal.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

This morning I woke up and everything was already packed, so I decided to just leave. I left a note on the table saying goodbye to everyone. Dad almost caught me though. I had no idea he got up so early to train! Does he even sleep?!

He was in the gravity room while I was trying to sneak out of the house. When I was going to run past the gravity room door, he came out and went to get some food. I don't know what happened, but I heard him mumble, "Damn kids," and walk back into the gravity room….I think it's because I had a "little" midnight snack. "Little" meaning that most of the fridge is empty!

Anyway, I eventually got out of the house and left. I decided to walk for a while. #1 So that Father wouldn't sense my ki leaving and #2, I wanted to take my time and figure out what the hell I was going to do. Then later I would start to fly once I was well away from the house. I still don't know what I'm going to do actually. I have no idea what I'm going to do or where I'm going and I have my doubts about this whole adventure thing. I don't have a clue of where to even start to look for that girl, but deep down, I know I'm doing the right thing and it's my destiny to find her. I don't know how I know, but I just do.

Basically, I've had an uneventful day. I ended up flying over a major city and I felt like something was there. Of course I thought it was the girl, since that's who I set out to find. I followed the feeling and felt it get stronger. I was pretty sure that I was going to find the girl, but I only ended up finding Goten.

"Hey Trunks, what are you doing here?" he asked when he saw me. "My mom wanted me to go out on a date with some girl. I'm waiting for her right now. I wish mom would leave me alone and quit interfering with my love life. Don't you think—"

"Shut up for a minute, Goten, I have to tell you something." I said.

I told him about everything that had happened, and told him about the dream. He seemed really interested and told me that he would try to follow me later if his mom let him. Then his date arrived and he had to go, so I left and continued my little quest. I don't know though…On the one hand, I want Goten to come with me so that I'll have some company and maybe he can help. I don't know how he would, but maybe he could. Then again, on the other hand, I sort of want to do this myself and Goten might only get in my way. I guess I don't care either way, just so long as I find the girl.

Oh well, I better get a room in the city I'm in now. It's getting late and mom let me borrow her credit card….hehe…I'll try not to order too much room service…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Trunks got up and walked into a nearby hotel, which just happened to be one of the best in the city and checked in for the night. He walked leisurely through the hotel, then went up to his room on the eighth floor.

"I wonder if I'll have that dream again," he wondered when he was nice and warm under the covers. "I hope I do. I don't know what I'll do if I don't have it again. I just need some clues on where to go from here."

He slowly nodded off and fell into a deep sleep…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Okay, it's like 3:00 in the morning and I'm tired, and want to sleep, but I have to write this down. Almost as soon as I fell asleep, I had the dream. It was different than the one I usually have, but the girl was still there.

It started off as usual, with me being surrounded by darkness, but when I got to see the girl, I was actually where she was. I wasn't looking in on her, I was with her this time…I was with her and she was actually talking to me. Everything was so clear too…I knew we were in a field in the country, whereas in all my other dreams, I just guessed that she was in her room since the background was pink. But finally, I got to see and hear her instead of an outline. Unfortunately I never got to see her face, but at least I know a little of what she looks like.

I was sitting next to her and she was talking to me, but she was looking away from me. I got up and walked around her several times because I was desperate to know who she was and what she looked like. But all I could see was her black hair! She kept her face bent down and her hair hung in front of her face so that all I saw was her nose. I couldn't get to her to move her hair out of her face. It was like there was a force field around her, to keep me from finding out who she was. I don't know how I know that for sure, but I do. She wants me to help, but she is afraid of me and doesn't want me to see her….She must actually be communicating with me through my dreams then…Oh, I can't believe I didn't think of this before! Well, at least she trusts that I want to help her. She must know I'm looking for her now. I'm glad that I at least saw her a little bit. I also know how she sounds and if I ever hear her voice again, I know I'll recognize it.

Her voice was very clear and we actually had a conversation. It was short though. I don't think she wanted to talk very much for some reason…maybe she's afraid of me?

She said, "Are you going to look for me?" She was crying again in this dream. I saw a tear fall down on her hand.

"Yeah, I'm looking for you right now," I said. That's when I tried to find her face.

"No. Stop walking around. I don't want you to see me yet."

"Why? I won't hurt you, I promise. I'm a nice guy, really I am."

She shook her head. "No."

Then there was a moment of silence and all you could hear were her sobs. I wanted to find out as much as I could while I was still dreaming. "Why are you crying? Did something happen to you?"

"No," she said. "I just feel l---- and ------------------." It was like she fazed out or something, like when a TV blurs and the sound gets warped.

"Where are we?" I asked quickly.

"----------- Va----."

"What? I can't understand you." Everything was becoming muffled again. I saw the edges of the world around us become hazy, then blurry until I was looking in on her again. She started sobbing even more, and I saw her cover her face with her hands as she cried. I kept trying to talk to her, but eventually everything became dark again and I woke up.

I'm thinking that it would be a good idea to search out in the country, since that's where she sent us…if she was the one in control of my dream. I think when I asked her where we were, a part of the place was a valley or something, since one of the words started with "va" so that would seem like a good guess… Damn it, I just don't know! It's so frustrating trying to figure out what this dream meant! I'm sure there were a bunch of clues in both dreams of where she is. I wish I could figure it out tonight, but I just can't do it. I'm way to tired to be thinking right now. But at least I wrote it all down so that if I forget it all by tomorrow, I'll have it here.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Trunks woke up late the next morning, after having the dream again. Feeling slightly confused on why the girl still wouldn't talk to him, he slowly got dresses and left the hotel. He wandered the streets aimlessly, then took to the air and headed towards the countryside.

"I hope I'm doing the right thing by going this way," he though. "If she isn't out here, in the country, I'm going to be wasting a lot of time and I want to find that girl as soon as possible."

Trunks flew across the countryside, searching for a feeling of where she was, but came up with nothing. He was lost in thought when he suddenly heard a voice in his head say, "Help! Help me! Please!" It was the voice of the girl and at the same time he felt the feeling he was looking for. Trunks stopped flying and looked down. He saw that he was over a little house with a field nearby that was exactly like the one in his dream…
