(Hello, Kahn-vict here. Sorry for the delay.who would have thought there
would have been all that Thanksgiving stuff to get in the way of my fic??
Anyway, Addy-chan, I don't mean to be rude, but I had absolutely no idea
what you were talking about. Well, anyway, onto the next chapter.)
Chapter 6
Trunks
There had been a dilemma as to where I would stay to sleep. The Animorphs insisted that I could stay with Ax, at his "scoop." I guess capsule technology hadn't come very far along in this dimension.
"Yeah, Trunks, Ax's scoop ain't that bad. I mean, there isn't a roof most of the time, and there's no indoor plumbing, but it's livable," said Marco.
The Animorphs had explained what Ax's scoop was, and I asked him why he preferred to live in something without a roof.
Andalites have an inborn fear of confinement, Ax said grumpily.
I felt around in my jacket for a possible lifesaver. Now. . . did I have it with me? I felt in my jacket a little more, and pulled a box that resembled a small cigar holder.
"Ha! Ax, my staying with you won't be necessary. I have my own place."
Everyone looked at me like I had gone nuts. Cassie looked me in the eyes, looked at my capsule holder, and looked at me again.
"This boy has gone bonkers," Rachel said. I laughed.
"I would like to give you all a demonstration of capsule technology. Ya'll. . .morph, is that what you call it?"
You got it, man. Although it won't be ALL of us morphing, Tobias said.
The others started morphing their bird of prey morphs. I kept talking with Tobias, while they morphed, seeing if I still had everything straight.
"But, you can still morph, right Tobias?" I asked.
You got it, Tobias answered.
"And.some big terrifically powerful being gave you back your ability to morph?"
You know, its scary when some outside person actually understands our lives, Marco said, finishing his osprey morph.
"Believe me, Marco, I have some stories that make you all sound like math students in an algebra class."
Can we leave? My parents could come in here and see 6 birds of prey and a lavender haired teen in their barn. They might write off the birds, but Trunks? No, Cassie said as she started to lift off.
I raised my ki ever so slightly, which gave of a light blue flame around me. I checked to make sure everyone was ready to go, and I took off out the back of Cassie's barn, just to be sure no one would see me take flight.
The flight was a relatively short one, but even so, I flew high enough that a normal person would think I was a jet flying over. We had decided that I would stay relatively closest to Ax's scoop, in case an emergency came up they would have to come looking for me.
I dropped out of the sky, and saw Jake in his peregrine falcon morph shooting like a bullet towards the ground. I decided to make a little game of it.
I saw Jake hit what must've been nearly 200 mph, the fastest any animal on the planet could travel. I grinned, charged my ki a bit more, and rocketed past him.
I dropped head first until I was 2 feet off the ground, then did a back flip and dropped on my feet. Rachel landed beside me, in her bald eagle morph.
Jake, man, I think we have us a new champion! she crowed from beside me.
Trunks, how are you so FAST?! Marco asked as he dropped down beside me.
I laughed, and felt my cheeks get hot. "There are others that are much faster, and stronger, than I am. It takes, well, a lifetime of training, which unfortunately I've done."
"Trunks, there are guys at my school who HAVE worked out all their lives and haven't even thought of being half as strong as you are," Cassie said.
Everyone had morphed back to their normal forms, and I had decided for the little "demonstration" to begin.
"Ok, this might be a dumb question, but have any of you ever hear of capsule technology?" I asked.
There was a long silence.
"Well, it pretty much allows you to condense anything you latch a capsule onto. The capsule shrinks the substance down to a sub molecular size, thus making a huge appliance easy to carry."
I have heard of such technology. We Andalites have started to develop it, but it hasn't been completed yet. How were humans able to create such things? Ax asked.
I shrugged, as if I didn't know. The real explanation could take all night. "My mother is nothing short of a genius. She and my grandfather invented the capsules, and founded the Capsule Corporation."
"So, lets see what they can do!" Rachel demanded.
She really is a good girl, at heart, Tobias said to me privately. I nodded.
"Well, you want to know how I got so strong so quick, right? Well, here ya go."
I pulled the capsule my father forced me to carry around at all times. The Portable Gravity Room. I took the capsule in my hand, and pumped the button on top of it. I threw the capsule a few yards in front of me, and saw a huge billowing cloud explode from it.
The room was really nothing more than a huge sphere, with a door and a control panel at the front.
I started explaining how it worked. "This device is designed to increase the gravity inside the chamber. This model has a maximum pull of 500 times the Earth."
"500 TIMES?! That would squash you flat!" Jake exclaimed.
"Not so." I casually walked over to the gravity chamber and set the weight for 300x. I opened the door, and climbed inside. I looked back at the small window, and saw six heads crowded into it. I felt the gravity chamber start its procedures, and I felt the pull increase drastically. However, I was used to much more gravity than this, and calmly began somersaulting around the chamber.
After a few minutes, I climbed out, and looked at the gapping faces. I didn't think it was possible for an Andalite to be out of words, but I guess it was.
"Anyway, I have another capsule with a cabin in it. I can stay there."
After a few minutes they all recovered.
"Ok, first we sign Trunks up for the WWF. (A/N It will always be the WWF to me ^_^) He'll be the champ by the end of the week," Marco said.
"Marco, you know that slop isn't real, right?" Rachel said, smirking.
"Maybe not, but the money is. We could be rich!"
"Don't you mean Trunks would be rich?" Cassie asked.
We milled around for a few more minutes, and everyone said they had to be home. I waved to them as they took flight, and opened the capsule for the cabin I would be staying in.
I walked in and sat down on my bed. (So THAT'S where I lost my sword!) I undressed, and reviewed all the events that had happened in the day. I wondered, as I started to drift to sleep, how I was ever going to get home. I knew that I couldn't start searching for a way until I helped my new friends with their war.
I started to let the dregs of sleep take me away, when suddenly I sat up violently.
There were two. . . no, three powerful kis headed right for me!''
(Hello, all. Sorry about yet another dialogue chapter, but I had to write everything out for anyone that isn't familiar with the DBZ world. But, stay tuned next time for an action chapter! Yay! Oh, I have 15 reviews now. Whoo, go me. No, really, Go all yall, you all are my driving force.)
