Episode 21 – An Unfortunate Death
"This is unbelievable. By the looks of it, I will be unparalyzed in 2-3 minutes," Trulee thought, "But I can't afford that much time. My family needs me. A minute is even too much time to throw away at a time like this. I have to GO!!!" Then he let out a scream that shook the Earth. Some buildings that still stood up, collapsed and fell down. "Aaaaaah!" The black hair on his head soon started to glow white. He broke out of the paralysis without even a struggle. His skin soon broke out in veins that look like they were going to pop. "Uhhh, I feel my body is going to burst," he said, while bending over. He held his gut tightly in pain. Energy waves shot out his body. It formed a ring around his body and headed outward. The broken buildings turned into powder. The messed up road crushed worser and formed bigger cracks on it.
"Too much poweeerrrr!" said Trulee in a groaning voice. Finally, his body turned back to normal. The white and golden hair turned back to its normal color. He breathed deeply and said "What... (breathes heavily) was that?" "(breathes heavily) No time..., (breathes heavily) I have to go," he said and flew off.
In several seconds, he arrived at Bulma's house in quick speed, even though he was in exhaustion. It looked like the electric barrier has been destroyed. T2 was leaning on the side of the house, close to the corner, with his arms crossed. "So you made it. I thought you would be too late," he said in a calm voice. "What did you do with them, you pathetic loser," said Trulee in a loud voice. T2 smiled and pointed to the other side of the building. Trulee flew to the other side, which was where the front door was. T2 turned as Trulee turned and they saw Bulma and Chi Chi tied and knocked out cold. T2 adjust his back on that side and leaned on the wall. Trulee hurried to them, but suddenly stopped when he heard "You don't wanna get close if I were you." Trulee turned around and saw T1 up in the air floating, while holding Mrs. Phan in a hostage position. His hand pointed at her head. "Lee, don't worry about me. You have to fight for everybody, they need you," she said in a low, weak voice. "You b! Let her go, she have nothing to do about this," yelled Trulee. "Unfuse yourself and hand over the necklaces or she will die in front of your eyes," threatened T1. "This thing is permanent," the fused warrior stated. "That is bullshit. I heard you two talking about it. Now hand it over," yelled T1, while moving his hand slowly closer to Mrs. Phan's head. T2 said "I would do it if I were you, small fry." "Shut up or I will blast you into pieces," Trulee yelled.
"Fine, I guessed you have decided," said T1. He moved his hand farther to the side from her head and threw it forward, until Trulee yelled "Fine, I'll do it, just don't hurt her." T1 smiled in delight. Trulee's hand shook as it moved close to the necklace. It looked like two people were struggling to control it. But finally the hand touched the necklace. The shaking stopped, as he pressed the button on the back of the face of the necklace.
Both men were pushed away from each other, till both bodies separated. Trunks asked in a loud voice to Lee "How did you do that?" "I don't know and I don't care," he said. Then he took the necklace off his neck and threw it to T1. T1 caught it and signaled for the other necklace (the one Trunks is wearing). Trunks looked at the necklace, turned to Lee, then T1, and then the innocent person, Lee's mom. He slowly took it off and threw it to the completely heartless enemy. T1's smile grew even wider, when he caught it. Lee's eyes grew big, when he saw energy forming at the finger tips of the hand pointing at Mrs. Phan. "Noooo!" Suddenly, a laser pierced through Mrs. Phan's head. T2 flew to T1 and they both laughed sadistically. "Humans are so slow, when it comes to, well everything," T1 said. T1 dropped her body, and they both flew off. Her body dropped lifelessly as gravity carried her down.
Trunks flew quickly to catch Mrs. Phan, while Lee gave up flying and dropped to the ground on his knees. Trunks examined Mrs. Phan and slowly settled her on the ground. Trunks walked over to Lee and put his hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry," said Trunks. Lee shakes his head and stood up straight. "She's not dead. No, she is just sleeping. She'll wake up soon," he said. "Man, I know it's hard to believe, but she's dead," said Trunks. "I don't want to hear it," he yelled. Tears fell down his face and he sat down with his arms around his knees and his head on top of it. Lee's body shivers from a cold feeling inside him. "Stand up, c'mon stand up," said Trunks quietly. "Stand up," he yelled. He lifted Lee up by his shirt and yelled again, "The Lee I know fights back no matter how bad he got it. I know you have a difficult and depressing past, but you must face it." Lee pushed him away and walks backward, slowly. He said "You don't know how I feel. All the people close to me, dies. I don't know how to handle it anymore." "I had people close to me die, too. My father, Gohan, but you know how I handle it? I face my worst fears and fight back. There are always obstacles in life, but as Saiyans, humans, and other living things we can't hide from anything that anger us. People come and go in life, and if we still live, we must bring justice in this matter. We can't stay in denial or fear, face life and avenge their death," said Trunks.
They both stare at each other for a long time. Lee steps back into reality and said, "You're right. I'll go bury my mom near my sensei," "Should I go with you?" asked Trunks." Lee smiles and says "Naw, you better untie those two now. The cyborgs may have gotten stronger by now, so we must train our asses off again when I come back. We will train day in and day out, until we feel we are stronger than them. This threat will be treated soon. I guarantee I will get my revenge for Ken Mikai Yoshi, my mother Kuresa Phan, and all the people those 21Bs harmed."
"This is unbelievable. By the looks of it, I will be unparalyzed in 2-3 minutes," Trulee thought, "But I can't afford that much time. My family needs me.
