Episode 17 – Imposter
They were flying at a decent pace, heading back to Trunks' new home in the woods. "Damn, those moves you showed at New West City were unbelievable. How did you get so strong?" asked Trunks. "I'll tell you once we get to wherever we are going," said Chiaotzu. "Oh, we're going to my house. Lee, the guy on my back, told my mom, Chi Chi, and his mom to stay there while I was knocked out," he said. "If you were knocked out, then how did you know where they are?" questioned Chiaotzu. "Oh, I managed to wake up in time after a big fight. I followed him from there," replied Trunks. "Oh, we should hurry. The paralyzing move I gave them doesn't last that long. We should go to your house before they start following us," he said. Trunks nodded, and both of them brought up their speed.
When they got in the woods, they went straight to Bulma's house through the windows. The windows led to the living room with the three ladies in it. "Huh, what happened to my son?" said Mrs. Phan in a worried and surprised voice. "He just got knocked out, he is gonna be alright," said Trunks. Trunks flew into his room and settled Lee onto his bed, carefully. "Trunks, hand him a Senzu bean," said Bulma. "I don't think that would be wise," he said. "Why?" Chi Chi and Bulma both asked.
Trunks told them what he heard, before the fight began. "That must be tough for the kid. The person who raised and taught him basically everything was murdered by no good hoodlums," said Chi Chi. "Yeah, that is why he should rest longer. A fighter who is blinded by anger and hatred don't fight their best, which is what we all need to do in this battle," added Trunks. "So what do your friend and you want to get soda, coffee, or tea?" asked Mrs. Phan. "Its okay, we don't need anything," said Trunks. Bulma asked "So Chiaotzu, where have you been all these years?" "Sorry, I lied," he said in a low voice. "What do you mean?" asked Trunks. Suddenly Chiaotzu's body changed.
The once small pale white boy, turned into a decent height man with grayish skin. He felled to his knees and said in a hurry "Sorry King Trunks, I was sent here from Planet Krong to protect and serve you, until you come back. I' am Kan, Agent 64370, and I shifted into Chiaotzu, so you would trust my intentions. As a shape shifter, I turned into Chiaotzu from after reading your mind without your permission. I' am truly sorry. I chose his body, because it was the simplest of all your friends. (slows down his talking) I' am sorry, I have failed you." Then he spat out a fountain of blood and died. His body slowly faded away, but the blood stain remained. The three ladies jumped up out of fright. Trunks wiped the blood on the floor with his finger and sniffed it. "He has been poisoned to death."
"How did that happened?" asked Bulma. "I saw T1, one of the two cyborgs I was telling you about, spat out some mysterious liquid out of his mouth. At the time, I didn't really put much thought into it, but who knew it was the instrument of his death," he said. "I could've saved his life with a Senzu bean. How could I have been so careless?" he blamed himself. Bulma put her arms around him and said "It wasn't your fault. I should've taught you what I know about the effects of poison. That would've made a difference." "You guys shouldn't play the blame game. What is really important is why he called you king?" asked Chi Chi. "I don't know" he helplessly replied.
Suddenly, Lee popped out of his bed. He went into the living room and yelled at Trunks "Why the hell you brought me here?" "Lee, behave yourself, we're guests here," said his mom calmly. "Mom, you don't understand, I could've finish those freaking robots, if it wasn't for this moron. I could've avenged Sensei Yoshi's death," yelled Lee. "What, you were getting your ass kicked. I saved your life, be grateful," Trunks yelled back. "The only thing that was holding me back during that fight was..... was this freaking hair," he yelled. Then he held up his long hair and made it shorter by chopping it off with his hand. He threw the cut up hair on the floor. "Now don't ever bother me again," he said in a low and serious tone. "Next time when you are about to die, I won't save you," replied Trunks in the same tone as Lee. "I won't need you, but if you do mess up my fight again, I will eliminate you myself," he threatened and flew out of the window.
