"Family System"
Emma awoke to a bright yellow sun, and she blocked her eyes from the glare. My head hurts. She thought rubbing her temples. She gazed around the room, it was dead quiet and she didn't remember when she fell asleep. All she could remember was Trunks telling her about his father then it turned into a blur. "Crap, that means Trunks must have been there when I fell asleep! I probably looked like a dork or I drooled. What if I said his name in my sleep!" She said biting her nails nervously. She removed the sheets and attempted to stand up from the bed. She felt a twinge of pain, but it wasn't enough to hurt her badly. Emma slowly made her way across the wooden floor; she stopped once she reached the door, resting her ankle. Just then the door swung open whacking her upside the head. She fell to the floor with a "clunk". Bulma's hand quickly shot to her mouth and she gasped. "Omy-gosh! Are you alright, I had no clue you would be up." Bulma reached for Emma's arm, lifting her up from the ground.
"It's alright." Emma said smiling, "I'm actually feeling much better." Her head turned towards the window, the sun made a giant glare upon the floor and it almost looked royalty. Where's Trunks? She asked herself. She remembered how radiant her looked sitting in that windowsill with the sun beaming behind him. Her hands lowered and her lips rolled inside her mouth. "Bulma? Do you know where Trunks is?" she asked pulling at her shirt. Bulma raised her eyebrows "He's outside in the front yard. Why would you like me to get him for you?" She asked with a willing smile. Emma shook her head reluctantly as Bulma started to turn around. "No it's fine, my ankle's much better I think I'll go out to see him." She told Bulma a determined look on her face as she walked out of the bedroom door. The soft carpet made her ankle feel a bit better, but she had to clamp on to the stair railing while going down the stairs.
One stair at a time. She told herself as she reached the last. She let go of the stair railing her palms sweaty, and she made her way out of the front door. She gazed across the green grass and the blossomy trees. Trunks was setting under the tree staring into the sky watching the puffy clouds go by one by one. Emma slowly inched his way and sat down next to him. He turned a little shocked, "You're up, is your ankle ok?" Was the first thing he asked her pulling his knee to his chest. She nodded gazing down at her ankle. "It's feeling a lot better, thank you for helping me out." She said placing her hand on her swollen ankle.
He gave a smile and turned his gaze back at the clouds. Emma sat gazing at the clouds also, thinking how wonderful it was to be there. "It really isn't that different from my home." She said out loud making Trunks turn his head. "Where are you from?" he asked her a confused look on his face. Emma shook her head again. "It's hard to explain." She said giving a giggle. Trunks stood up his hands gliding into his pockets. "You are a mystery Emma." He said reaching out one hand to her. She grabbed his hand and her helped her stand. "Would you like me to take you to see more of this home of mine?" He asked giving her a wink. Emma turned her head, "That would be great!" She said a giant smile built on her face. This is going to be my best vacation ever! She thought clasping her hands together. Crap, what about school? She laughed evilly to herself as trunks picked her up. This is going to be better than I thought.
Aion stood on the edge of the same building the wind nipping at his face. He watched the glowing orbs closely. "Kayo, I have a task for you." He said turning his head behind him. Kayo made her way out of the shadowy abyss. "What is it?" She asked her long red hair braidedflowing over her shoulder. He laughed and pointed at the dog-eared half-breed. "I need you to rid of him. I can tell he'll be a problem in the future." He said crossing his arms. Kayo nodded walking toward the roofs door listening to Aion's crazed laughs. Insanity. She thought rolling her eyes. Just as she reached for the door handle the door burst open revealing a man dressed all in blue. He was indeed a policeman. "Miss, there has been a report about suspicious persons up on this roof. I'm going to have to escort you two out of the building."
Kayo's eyes grew wide, "Nothing is going on, and you need to leave now." She told him a sincere tone in her voice. The policeman shook his head grabbing he by the arm. He walked over to Aion attempting to turn him around. Kayo fought the policeman, trying to get him to turn around, but to no avail. Once his fingers touched the sleeve of Aion's Jacket he was flung off the roof dropping thirty stories to his death. Kayo fell to the curb of the building slight tears in her eyes. "Damnit, I warned you!" She yelled back at him shaking her head. She slowly stood up staring at Aion. "Why'd you do that? You just killed him without any mercy." She told him her hand placed over her right eye. Aion laughed slightly tapping her on the shoulder. "Humans deserve it, the wretched beasts." He said giving her a push towards the door. You're the beast! She screamed in her head storming out of the building leaving only the cold mist to hear Aion's laughter. How long can I deal with this?
