Well on to business. Here is the next chapter I hope you like it…ummmm ya…..uhhhh soooo (cough) …I should….ya know…ummmm…Wright …now…ya…hehe…
'Chichi' thought Goku as he flew faster than before.
"man, do you think it was chichi who screamed?" asked a very frightened Bulma who had convinced Vegeta to carry her…not willingly of course.
"yes that was her voice all right" said Vegeta 'no one has a voice like that…but that scream it was…' he thought silently.
"that was a scream of pain, anguish, fear, horror…and a hundred different emotions all poured into a mixture of pure…" said a monition piccolo.
"defeat" came the steady voice of 18.
Krillen flew silently beside his wife staring at her threw the corner of his eyes. So many thoughts were running through his head. He was so confused about everything but what was really puzzled him was his wife. He knew her better than any one and he could see in her eyes the pain she was hiding and the …guilt…he wasn't sure. She confused him she really did. Why did she protect chichi before and what did that comment mean earlier.
'ugh, I think to much' krillen thought.
Lightning began to flash around them, and the wind ripped at their bodies. The combination thus slowing them down and forcing them to cover their eyes. The black clouds began to spread above them. The only light coming from them was lightning.
"what…ahhh…what is happening…ahhh" shouted Yamcha.
"I don't know…." answered Krillen. He had his arms covering his face and was huddled close to his wife.
Suddenly the wind stopped completely. Everyone slowly brought their arms down and starred in confusion at each other.
"ooookaaayyyyy…" stated a very confused Goku.
Suddenly in the middle of the forest a huge column of fire burst from the ground and hit the clouds above. The black clouds became more violent as the swirled faster. The lighting began to strike everywhere.
An energy shock wave began billowing out covering the forest and racing toward the warriors.
Vegeta slowly brought his head forward opening one eye slowly. Only to have both widen in shock.
"oh sh…" his sentence couldn't be finished for he and everyone else was hit by the wave.
Everything went dark.
"uggggg….my head." Moaned Bulma as she tried to open her eyes. Every thing hurt, she could swear Evan her hair hurt. Slowly her eyes opened and every thing began to gain focus. She was staring at the tree tops. No, she wasn't sure if she could call them trees. Mangled black masses of dead wood was more like it. Dried withered leaves covered some of the claw like branches. Eerie fog weaved in and out of the trees and slithers along the ground. She could only describe it as one word…
Creepy.
"ummmm…ugh." came a pain filled moan to her left.
"Vegeta!" she cried as she quickly moved to his side forgetting her own pain.((Awww…how cute V/b lovers enjoy this part.))
"Are you all right?" she questioned as she helped him stand.
"What…ugg…were are we?" he questioned slightly dazed. Then he realized who was talking to him.
"Are you hurt?" was all he said.
Bulma hid a smile.
"no I'm fine." she said.
"Vegeta what happened?" she questioned.
"We were hit by the shock wave of that explosion…I've never felt anything like it." He trailed off absentmindedly.
"well come on lets go we have to find the others." She said getting down to business.
"any way the place is giving me the creeps…ahh" she yelped as a branch moved by her.
Vegeta shook his head in shame.
"Woman grow a back bone would you it was only a branch." his gruff voice commanded, a slight smirk on his face.
"hey you big jerk I am not afraid I was…ummm testing you…ya that its, so I know your not a cowered and will protect me." she beamed proud of her self. Then another twig snapped behind her. She screamed and hid behind Vegeta.
"another test woman?" He smirked and folded his arms on his chest. Her eyes narrowed and she gave an indignant huff.
"oh shut up." she said, irritated.
"so Mr. High and mighty when are you planning on getting us out of here huh?" She asked in a commanding tone.
He merely began to walk away. Her eyes widened.
"hey were are you going?" She cried as she ran off after him.
"okay why are we walking fly boy?" she commanded again.
"because woman" was her only response.
"well that was helpful." she said sarcasm oozing from every word.
Suddenly a though struck her and she smirked a smirk that could rival his own.
"ohhhh Veeeegeetaaa." She cooed sweetly. He narrowed his eyes at her.
"if you don't tell me I am gonna sing every earth song I know." she finished in the same voice.
His eyes widened for a second the narrowed dangerously.
"you wouldn't." He challenged.
Her smirk returned.
"OOHHHHH I LOVE YOU…" She began but was quickly shut up by the hand on her mouth.
"alright woman, just don't open that big mouth of yours, god its worse than the harpies screaming." he said very agitated. ((sorry guy but you have to remember when Bulma, Gohan, and Krillen were on what they thought was Namek and she began to sing…" got to find thoughts dragon balls ya…" you remember right. Well sorry to say it was not the best…he he…-…))
"I take offence to that, now why aren't we flying?" She questioned totally happy she won.
"Because I cant." He said getting angrier by the second.
"Whaa…?" she said completely shocked.
"Woman my energy is gone, I cant fly or use every attacks, nothing I am as weak as any normal human." he grunted suppressing his anger at the situation.
"Vegeta." she whispered. He kept walking and she followed without another word.
"what the…." Krillen whispered groggily as he sat up.
"were…wha….?" he questioned as he looked around throbbing in his head momentarily forgotten. Then he saw the prone figure of his wife on the ground.
"18!" he cried as he quickly rushed to her side. One there he cradled her head in his lap lightly stroking her hair whispering her name.
"18...18 honey wake up."
"whaa….ummmm…Krillen is that you?" she questioned as she became conscious.
"ya…ya its me you all right?" he questioned concerned.
"ya never felt better" she replayed sarcastically a small smile on her face. Krillen stared lovingly back a smile gracing his lips. Slowly 18's smile turned into a smirk.
"well lover boy you going to let me up any time soon?" She said her smirk getting wider.
"oh…uhhhh he he ya…" He stuttered a strong blush rising in his cheeks. He then helped her into a standing position.
"about time." she said embarrassing him further. Oh she loved him but that didn't mean she couldn't have some fun with him. He closed his eyes and smirked.
"oh like you didn't like it" he said opening his eyes to stare at her. She turned her head to hide the small blush on her cheeks.
"well who could blame you I am sexy and oh so handsome." she began to gush as he did silly little poses while flexing his muscles.
She rolled her eyes and hide a small laugh.
"hey lover boy I think its about time we get moving." her face became serious as she looked around her.
The gravity of the situation then hit him full on and he stopped what he was doing. His eyes skimmed the surrounding area. The atmosphere was…disturbing. Dead black trees were everywhere all horribly shaped and twisted. The soup like fog at the feet wasn't helping any either.
"well this is disturbing." said 18 in a dead pan voice.
"yaaa…he he" it took everything in krillen not the stutter. This place was scary man.
"well…he he…come on we need to find…ahhh THE OTHERES." the last of the sentence came out as a frightened squeal as the wind moaned him. He quickly jumped behind his wife. Who raised an eyebrow at him.
"oh my strong protector." she said sarcastically rolling her eyes. Krllin jumped out from behind her and dusted the imaginary dust from his clothes. He began to laugh nervously with his hand behind his head.
"well being that you haven't noticed dear it seems we have lost our powers." she said while looking at him. His eyes widened in surprise. He looked at both his hands then tried a blast…nothing happened. He the stared at his hands wide eyed then began to jump up and down.
"what are you doing?" asked 18 in confusion, amusement in her eyes.
"Trying…to ugh….fly." He grunted then landed on his rear.
"well if your quite finished I think we should get moving." she said casually turning on her heal and walking away.
"ahh…hun wait for me!" Cried Krillen as he jumped to his feet and caught up to his wife.
"sooo…hun were are we going?" He asked as he stared at the passing trees and grotesque vines.
"cant you feel that?" she asked in her monotone voice.
"huh, feel what?" this got his attention.
"I don't know…just…we are suppose to go this was." she said frustrated.
Krillen was quite then thinking over what she just said. He tried to concentrate. The howls of the breeze hit his ears. Branches and leaves rustled by what he wasn't sure. The fog moved and swirled around his feet as he walked and climbed over the many large and disfigured roots protruding from the earth. Then there it was. How could he have missed it. It was pulling him. Something was pulling him in the direction they were walking. He had no idea what.
