The last couple of hours have been a blur to our trio. They were heading on their way to a wonderful life. Full of promises of hope and peace. Now they were heading for a life of pain, slavery, and possibly their death. They huddled together in the holding cell as they headed to the Torusians planet. Poor, small, fragile Karara hugged onto Venux and Trunks dearly as small tears fell from her beautiful, young, and purely innocent face. Venux embraced her as she looked at Trunks more worried than anything.
Trunks tried his best to calm the upset child. "I want to go home!" sobbed the small 5 year old child. "Papa Twunks, I want to go home! I'm scared!" begged the child. Trunks felt a tug at his heart. No child, especially this young and innocent little girl, deserved to be put in this predicament. "Trunks, get us of out of here." said Venux. "I will. I promise, nothing will happen to either one of you. Not while I am still alive and able to fight. So do not leave my side and I will get us out." he stated. Venux nodded.
Then their attention turned to the upset little girl in their arms and Trunks tried using a soothing voice that long ago, as far as he could remember, that his Mother used on him when he was a small babe. "Karara, look at me." Karara stopped crying on Venux's shoulders and turned from Venux's embrace to look at the man that she had come accustom to calling her father and looked at him with eyes full of tears.
" I want you to stop crying and be brave for me. Can you do that?" he asked. "B-But, I'm scared!" "I know you are, but you have to be brave. I'm going to get us out of here, But I need you to stop crying." The blue droplets that grazed her porcelain face did not falter. "Pretend that we are going to get ice cream." "We are?" "Yes, but for now, I need you to smile and be brave for Daddy." Then a bright smile grazed her lips and Trunks wiped away the tears with his thumb.
Then he pulled her into a hug. However this moment was short lived as they felt the ship come to a halt as Trunks fell back and the 2 girls fell on top of him. "Ow…" moaned Venux. "You okay?" asked Trunks. "Yeah." Trunks helped them up and handed Karara to Venux. "Venux, do not, no matter what happens to me or anything, do not let them take Karara or let her out of your site. And stay by me at all times. Do not leave me at all. I do not want to give them the chance of having an advantage.
Trunks didn't know what to do. Kami only knows how things would go once they were confronted by whatever force they were confronted with. Venux nodded her head as she understood what her job was. As they were to continue on, they were interrupted by by the door to the holding cells opening. The alien who called himself Shanobu came forward and stood before them on the other side of the cell.
Trunks took a step forward in front of Shanobu. He had his sword drawn and held in front of him protectively. Funny they hadn't taken it away yet. Were they not aware of what he could do with the weapon that had caused the deaths of the future of THE most feared tyrants? Had they not been aware of his skills or perhaps this was no threat to them? That they were not afraid of the young warrior and his weapon of choice. This scared Trunks. But now was not the time for fears. His family was depending on him.
So the 2 warriors stared each other down, eye to eye. "We have arrived on my planet. In 1 hour, I will come and retrieve all of you. You are to see my fellow higher appeaser. Some advice to you Saiyan Hybrid, Do not anger him in anyway. If you do, the consequences will the worst you have ever experienced in your life." Trunks nodded. "Who is your fellow leader?" Shanobu chuckled. "You will find out soon enough hybrid. But for now, eat."
Shanobu pulled aside and his minions came up to the cell and set the 3 trays on the ground and slid them underneath. The food was a bit "odd" looking. Trunks eyed it. He wasn't sure if he could trust these people. Hell, they had kidnapped them and was forcing them to be in this cell. "Eat it, I did not poison it." "How do I know you didn't?" he eyed Shanobu suspiciously. Shanobu snorted. "You are worth more to me alive than dead. So eat. You don't know when you will be eating again." he inquired. Trunks eyes narrowed. As much as he hated to admit it, Shanobu was right.
Seeing how Trunks' wasn't going to budge, Shanobu shrugged and began to leave with his minions. Trunks turned to Venux and Karara and motion them forward. "Trunks?" questioned Venux.
"Venux, we need to eat." "But Trunks, what about the food. He could have poisoned it?" she asked afraid. "Venux, he wouldn't have. We are of more value alive than in death. Come on, we need to keep up our strength." he reminded her as he took Karara and sat her down. "Come on, let's eat." said Trunks smiling as he handed Venux and Karara some food. So they began to eat the meal that could very well possibly be their last.
Soon the trays were empty, the stomach's full, and the hour came and went. During this time, the child had taken a nap on Venux as Trunks covered her up with his jacket and he along with Venux, discussed what they were gonna do. Trunks used his brilliant, statistical mind to come up with some way to get them out of this mess. He came up with a few plans and prayed to Kami he wouldn't have to use any of them.
And so, the hour of time had come and pass. The doors of the cell door opened and they were lead to their destinies. Trunks had awakened the sleeping child as they continued onward. The planet Badkata was not as Trunks had imagined. It was a beautiful planet, full of luscious green vegetation. Trunks looked out the window at the surrounding forest life. It seemed to stretched out forever and he pondered to himself how long it would take to find somebody if they should happen to venture out into the wood?
That is when an idea struck him. He found their way out, but apparently when he was having his brilliant brainstorm of an idea, he had stopped walking and was staring out the window to the forest around him. "Move it along hybrid! I don't want to be late!" sneered the guard as he shoved Trunks ahead of him In result, the knocked Trunks out of his train of thought and he need to move and fast.
The guard kept pushing and they continued on. Soon they were lead into what Trunks presumed the throne room, but he never expected what he had come next to see…..Frieza. But wait! Frieza was all ready killed in this time was he not? Then Trunks peered more so at the Ice-jin look alike before him. It wasn't Frieza, but he must've came from the same origin as him. By now, Venux was hiding behind Trunks and Karara was trying to make herself invisible in Venux's arms.
She had remembered the Ice-jin all too well and feared him more than anything. They were forced into the room and the doors shut behind them. The room was thick of a blanket of uneasy silence. The only sounds were the whimpering of the small, frightened child. Finally, the Ice-jin spoke. "I am Cooler. As you have known, Frieza, my spoiled little brother, I am a more…cunning tyrant. You killed him in the future, and since I am to inherit all of his possessions, you 3 are mine."
"How do you know who I am?" asked Trunks, his face the same cod look as he was under Frieza's rule. "Did you not listen? Dirty Hybrid, try and remember this more than 2 seconds. I am Frieza's brother. I know all about you. I was there when we came and took you from your Mother. Oh she was a fun plaything for a good couple of hours. Begging and pleading for us to spare your pathetic life as we had our fin with her. She endured the pain all for you as your father laid dead at her feet. Quiet a fun scene. But in the end, we killed her and took you alive. In fact, I helped Frieza train and almost break you.
But little brothers do tend to be lazy in their work I must say. But I do thank you for getting rid of him. Now I have all of his belongings, even you." sneered the Ice-jin named Cooler. "And believe me, I won't make the same mistake my brother did by giving you such luxuries as a female "slave" as you call it. And I will break you. One way or another." At this threat, Trunks' eyebrow furrowed as eyes were a dangerous blue fire. He wouldn't allow anything bad happen. He refused. Trunks drew his sword. "In order to get them, you will have to get through me first." he declared in a tone so full of venom and hatred. It dripped with loathing disgust as this existent evil tyrant before him.
"Now aren't we bit over protective? But you do not have choice in this matter. You are mine as of now and I will be taking all of your things. Including your slave and the little girl." Trunks made an angered sound deep in his throat, much like a dog would as it was getting ready to attack and he drew his sword in front of him now. Cooler's amusement look was quickly replace of one ensured of fury.
" I thought I told you to get rid of his sword!" he snapped at the guard. "He is not threat." replied Shanobu coolly. "Then you underestimate his skills!" cried out Cooler. "YOU underestimate me greatly!" interrupted Trunks in a tone that clearly stated he did not want to mess with anything right now. "Shut up you pathetic Hybrid! Do not talk unless you are spoken to! Now take away the female and child!" ordered Cooler. 3 burley and extremely well built Torusians came up and began to surround the 2 females behind Trunks.
Trunks noticed this and lunged at one as he sliced him in half from the middle. Both Karara and Venux screamed. "Venux, cover Karara's eyes!" he ordered as he took out the other one that he sensed was behind him. Venux did so and Trunks took out the third. "Now I am gonna ask you one more time, and only one more time nicely mind you. Let us go. Frieza's empire was destroyed. There is no more reason to take me as a slave any longer. I have suffered enough." demanded Trunks in a tone that left no room for argument and his eyes narrowed down at the tyrant.
Cooler sneered at Trunks. "I do not take orders from a Hybrid, much less a slave. I will not set you free and you are to step down before I decide you are not worth the trouble and just kill you. Do not worry, you will be too busy to being my slave and doing my bidding to concern yourself with these two." That did it for Trunks. That crossed the line for him. "Venux, take Karara and run to the forest." he told her calmly as he had her back to her and not bothering to look at her as well.
His tone was clear and non negotiable. "Hybrid, like we are going to allow them to leave! You have a better chance in hell freezing over than letting them both escape." smiled Cooler sadistically. The same smile that Frieza always uses when he is gonna put Trunks through one of the worst tortures of his life. "Then you are a bigger fool to stop me." Then before anyone could move, Trunks charged up to Super Saiyan. Everyone stood aghast as he was shrouded in pure Saiyan glory.
As everyone was shocked, Shanobu recovered first. He pulled out his dagger by his hip and in a move that no one could prevent, he took a giant stab at Trunks' exposed back. He ripped down, twisted, and pulled out. Blood pooled out of the back and Trunks grasped out in extreme pain.
But he wouldn't go down without a fight as he turned, still standing, and blew the king up with a good sized energy blast. His body ached from the impact of the damage the weapon left behind. Then Cooler didn't waste any time with seeing Trunks' weakness as he, along with the remaining guards, lunged at the trio. All dog piling on the 3. And as they were shouting and attacking, all came the realization that they were gone.
That they had disappeared completely. It was as if they disappeared into thin air. Cooler was livid. "FOOLS! GO AND FIND THEM! NO ONE WILL REST UNTIL THAT HYBRID IS IN MY GRASP!" cried Cooler angrily.
B: Uh-oh Trunks, I think you are in some trouble.
