Here's our next chapter
Chapter 4: Over? Already?
He helped me to live...I must thank him...that's why I stayed alive....for him...because of him...
It was already after midnight when Zenon woke up to find bandages on her shoulder, her chest and on her right upper thigh. There's little pain meaning that she was fed a few senzu beans and she also noticed she was at a room at capsule corp., Bura's home.
She looked around to find Serenity sleeping in the chair next to her bed, Tea and Bura asleep on the extended couch, and Oshan, still bandaged, sleeping in a hammock in the corner. Maybe the guys from Domino didn't go home yet. They all stayed.
Zenon's motion of moving her feet woke up Serenity as the girl in the bed froze.
"Oh! Zenon! You're awake!" she whispered happily.
"Yeah? Where are the guys?" Zenon asked as she looked around the room.
"They're all sleeping in the next room over."
"Cool," Zenon got up quickly due to the surprise reaction of Serenity. "Wow! Those senszu beans Vegeta gave you must've worked pretty well!"
"Beans—oh, yeah, those," she then walked out the door and headed to the left and peeked. Her face suddenly flourished all red on how cute they were all sleeping. Too cute to almost laugh!
"Psst! Joey!"
No reply.
"Joey! Ah...I know!"
Quietly, she started to floated above the guys sleeping on the ground and over to Joey who was sleeping on the bed. She then floated upwards in Indian style and held Joey's nose so he couldn't breath. "GAH! What the-? DAH! Zenon...floating..."
"Hmph! 'bout time you woke up."

"You sleep so long. It's so hard to come to wake you up."
Joey closed the door. "Sorry." But he didn't turn around.
"You okay, Joey?"
"I'm fine. Just happy...dat you're alive." He turned around really happy with the tears streaming down.
"Joey? GAK! Can't breathe!"
"I actually thought you were done for!"
"Well that's nice to know."

"An animal appeared in front of us?"
The two both sat on the couch in the main living room discussing the recent events of yesterday.
"Yeah, Oshan wasn't expectin' dat to happen but then, her mom and uncle came and took care of dat android! Now dat's action!"
"So it's over?"
"I dunno. The last thing I saw was 17 and 18 take da girl somewhere to the sky when they flew away. Maybe she's at the scrap metal heap already."
"I wouldn't think family wouldn't be disposed like that, that easily. She's probably here somewhere." "Say...uh..." she held her head in her hands and then hugged her legs together. "It felt like...I almost died out there..."
"You did?"
"But I stayed on living because of you."
Joey blushed and looked the other way.
"But I just remembered how you used to tease me about my hair," she grunted which changed Joey's feeling from blushing to annoyance. "I didn't mean to, ya know. Sorry if I ever hurt your feelin's."
"I know! I'm glad you apologized. It makes me feel better!"
"I'm glad you're feelin' betta."
"Hey Joey?"
"Yeah?"
"What's up with you and Mai?"
"Ah! What makes you think I like her?! She's just a good friend!"
"Really? That's cool. " Zenon scratched her head..."Hopefully my mother didn't hear that."
"Why?"
The gleefully ChiChi came rising up behind the couch and hugged them together. "I knew you two would get together!"
"Mom!"
"Hey! Quit with the huggin'!"
"We have to get the wedding planned right away!"
"WHAT WEDDING?!"
