Resident Z 2: Search for a cure!
"Daddy!"
Goten opened his eyes,
"No I'm not your dad" Sherry smiled.
"What!"
Goten sat up and looked around to see Goku and Rotory lying propped up against the wall. He crawled over to his father and shook him.
"Wow!"
Goku pushed Goten's hand away.
"You okay now?"
"Kind off, my head feels funny."
"Thats the static from the computer" Rotory explained. "It must have fried a small bit of your brain. "He looked at Goten who was now picking his nose. "…Ok then a large bit of your brain."
"Cool, so that tingling sensation is that!"
"Erm, if you like yeah."
"I don't understand you Rotory." Goku lent forward. "One minute you're helping us, the next your trying to destroy us!"
He received no reply as Rotory put his hand into his pocket and pulled out a bottle of pills. He removed the lid and tipped out 4 then swallowed them.
"Whats that?"
"Drugs? My mum says drugs are bad!"
Goten looked disappointed with him, but Rotory just laughed.
"Nothing like that, they are just pills the doctor said I should take."
Rotory turned to Goku.
"No offence Goku, but you're a bloody mess!"
"Yeah I guess so."
Goku went to stand up but fell back down. Goten picked up the pipe and handed it to him. Goku stood up and used the pipe as a kind of crutch. Conveniently, it was just the right size as well.
He ripped off his the remains of his shirt and tied it to the top. Sherry sat in silence.
"What's up?"
Goku hobbled over,
"Will Trunks, be okay?"
"I don't know. Vegeta wouldn't exactly hurt him, and besides he wouldn't feel the pain if he is already a flesh eating zombie."
"Oh, what a nice way to put it!"
Rotory stood up and then corrected Goku's sentence.
"He means, that Vegeta is Trunks' father, so he wouldn't hurt him even if he is a towering beast."
"Like beauty and the beast?" Goten asked. All went silent.
"Goten!" Goku collapsed on him, "don't erm ...worry he hasn't watched it! He hasn't bought it and watched it, neither have I for that matter!"
Goku coughed and then stood back up.
"Right..."
Rotory held his hand out and Sherry took it,
"Hang on there," Goku took Sherry's other arm. "What if you go all psycho on us again?"
"Don't worry I've took my medication doctor." Rotory laughed, then paused. "You heard nothing."
"Soooooo you take medication for your disorder? What's up with you then?"
Goku lent on Rotory's shoulder and poked him repeatedly.
"Get off!"
Rotory pushed Goku away then picked up Sherry. He limped away with her shouting back,
"Don't know about you lot but we are going down that hole."
"Not without us!" Goten yelled and grabbed Goku's arm and pulled him towards the ladder.
They all stood and looked down into the hole. Rotory pulled out his lighter and dropped it into the hole. It didn't go down too far and it seemed the bottom was in safe jumping distance. Rotory jumped down first, followed by Sherry then Goku then Goten.
"Where are we?"
"The cells it looks like."
Rotory picked up his lighter and held it out in front of them.
"Yeah, it is."
They walked down the corridor until a metal gate was in front of them, Goten opened it and they all went through into the cell area.
"Hello?" Goku called out in case someone was there.
"What do you want?" A man called back from the other side of the bars.
"Erm, we were just kind of looking around and-"
"Shush!"
The man came forward to the bars and grabbed Goku's face.
"You don't what I've heard around these parts." He let go then fell to his knees. "I've been here for 4 days, eating all that I see ... and there isn't much I can tell you that!"
"Shall we get the key?"
"NO!" He leapt back, "Beetles and lint are enough to keep me happy in here!" He calmed down, "You couldn't force me to get out of here, even if you tried."
"Well okay then if you wanna try me!"
Goku got himself together and built up as much strength as his battered and torn body would allow, then he grabbed the bars and tore them from the wall.
"FOOL!"
"Ha! Take that!"
Rotory lifted his mask and looked around.
"Well I don't see anything running for you!"
They all looked around the floor, then when they turned back only the man's head remained, lying on the floor.
"You think he's mad?" Goku asked.
Rotory slapped him on the back of the head. Goten and Sherry went over to the whole left by whatever it was that took him. Sherry picked up his head and passed it to Goten, who dropped it down the hole to see how far down it was.
"Goten?"
Rotory hobbled over, Goku sat down against the wall to rest.
"I heard water, did you?"
Sherry turned to Goten
"Yup!"
They held hands and jumped in.
"HEY!"
Rotory leapt at them, but missed them and fell down himself. However Goku noticed none of this, or heard. He had fallen unconscious with the pain he was in.
