Chapter 5
Emma has never seen her team/family so happy in such a long time. They have been in this world for a little over two months and been living a normal life.
Well as normal as it gets.
Ever since the kids met Goten and Trunks, pranks through out the household have begun.
At first it begun with Jubilee and Goten against Trunks and Jono. Then Trunks and Jubilee against Jono and Goten. But this time it was Paige, Monet (who she still hasn't figured out how they got her involved), Jono and Goten all against Trunks and Jubilee.
Emma didn't even want to find out why they all turned against them, as long as they kept her out of it, well for now. Sean also was left out of all their pranks, but did help once in a while whenever he wasn't to busy with his bakery.
Emma was especially happy that Jubilee was happy. She was glad that Jubilee's nightmares of Angelo's death have almost gone away. All that anyone knows was that Angelo and Jubilee had gone to go visit the X-Men for the weekend. Next thing they know it, they get a phone call late Saturday night informing them they were under attack by sentinels and that Angelo hadn't made it. Jubilee got knocked out something in the fight and when Gen X got there, she wasn't talking to none of the X-Men and stayed in her room holding on to her worn out toy stuff dog she called Poku. Emma knew something was wrong with her, but Jean and the Professor said that she was just grieving over the death of her friend. Something kept bothering her though that they were keeping something from her, but just accepted the details of what she was told.
But that was then and this is now. Now Jubilee was happy.
She hadn't pressed her about finding her parents, but was starting to wonder a little bit about Trunks.
She noticed that they both have the same attitude and pride. Also, whenever he is around she would do just about anything he asks of her and acts just a little more childish then usual. In turn, Trunks acts over protectively towards her like a brother would.
Just then Emma's thoughts were interrupted by a knock at her door.
"Come in."
"Hey Frosty."
"Good afternoon Jubilee. How was your day?"
"It went great. Algebra is getting easier ever since Trunks started to tutor me. You know he is a real hard ass about me slacking off. "
"So I have notice. Did you need something?"
"Well yeah… you see there is this tournament that I really would like to join and I was wondering if it was okay." Jubilee asked somewhat timidly not knowing what the answer will be.
Emma raised her eyebrow at her young charge and simply asked, " What kind of tournament are we talking about?"
"A World Martial Arts Tournament. It's in like two weeks from today. And Gohan said he can train help me improve on some of my moves and Trunks also offered to help."
"It sounds that you already made plans on doing this. I hold no objections on you doing this, but make sure Sean also approves."
"I already did and he said 'sure why not' and oh by the way M is also going to sign up."
Emma looked up at her in surprise.
Jubilee just smiled and said, "We also need somewhere to train, so I was wondering if we could like umm use the danger grotto. I mean it's time we put it to some use right?"
"Very well. But Jubilee?"
"Yeah, what's up?"
"About your family…"
"As soon as this whole tournament is over, we can start our search."
Emma just sighed, knowing that Jubilee was just buying some more time because she was nervous about locating them, but what Emma didn't Jubilee was the her and Sean had some suspicions that they might already found them in either Trunks or Goten.
(Meanwhile)
"Hey Piccolo." Gohan said greeting the namek.
"Hello Gohan." He responded, but looked a little distracted.
Gohan notice that something was bothering Piccolo right away.
"What's the matter?"
"I'm not quite sure. I believe it is nothing, but for a while now I have been sensing a strong energy nearby. At the moment, it seems harmless."
"Hmmm… I know what you mean. I have been sensing that energy too. But there is something about it that feels familiar, yet I can't place my finger on it. It feels like I know it, but at the same time… it's a stranger to me."
"Yes. That's exactly how I feel. For now, we should let it be."
"Right."
They sat there in silence both trying too make sense about the energy signal they feel.
(Back at Gen X's house)
Penny liked their new friends. They were so much fun and weren't frightened by her. They included her in everything they could.
She especially liked them because they made her friend that wears the yellow jacket, Jubilee, happy and not sad.
What she couldn't figure out was why Jubilee and the one they called Trunks smell almost alike.
'Oh well.' Was all she could think off.
(sorry about taking forever to update, but I've made changes that I believe are wise as you had probably already notice)
