Brain control

Trunks looked over his sick 'mate.' He worried about her and the baby every day. He was afraid that sooner or later that the towns people would find them hiding out at Kadin's house. ' Oh Ukyo… you poor thing. I'm so sorry I had to put you through all this. This was entirely my fault.' Ukyo moaned in her self. Trunks got a wet towel and wiped Ukyo's face again. ' You are in so much pain… I'm sorry Ukyo… this wouldn't have happened if I didn't fall for you.'

Keke looked at Trunks and then back at her brother who was sitting down at the table in the kitchen drinking some coffee. " You know something… Trunks really is one in a kind."

" I notice that when I met him… and even before then. I knew he would be the one who would help Ukyo get back to her old self, before all the bad stuff started happening." Keiko looked away from his sister again and took a bite out of his muffin. Keke walked over to the refrigerator. She pulled out some breed and some juice. She sat down and looked at her brother. Keiko noticed something was on her mind. " What? What's the matter Keke?"

" I was thinking about what we were discussing earlier…"

" About the brain washing?"

" Yeah… what if it really is true? Do you think Trunks can over come it?"

" I'm not sure. But I think he has a strong chance on doing so."

Trunks walked into the kitchen with the others. He plopped into the chair. He put his head back and he looked up at the ceiling. His eyes had black sags under them. Keiko looked back at him. " How are you holding up?"

" Not too well… man I'm so tired. I haven't had a wink of sleep all day and yesterday. I just can't sleep…. Something is bothering me and I can't figure out what that is?"

" Maybe it's just nerves."

" No I think its something else… something about my mind doesn't seem right. Maybe it's just fatigue. I hope to Kami that's all it is."

" Maybe you should get some rest…" Keke said. She smiled when she saw Trunks sleeping in his chair. " Well at least he's trying to take it easy."

" He's really worried about Ukyo. And I guess that's understandable." Keiko said. He got up from his seat and walked into the living room. He looked at his sister for a moment. " So how are you holding up?"

She turns her head to look at him. " I'm doing alright?" She looks around.

" Hey! Where's Trunks? Where did he run off too?"

" He's sleeping."

" Oh the poor thing… he must be really tired."

" He is. He hasn't slept since you told him you were having a baby."

" He must be protective."

" Can you really blame him sis?"

" No I guess not." She looks around again. " Where's that bastard Kadin?"

" I haven't seen him. He must be running earnings or something."

Keke came back into the kitchen. " Hey sis. Feeling any better?"

" I bit. I don't feel so weak now."

In the kitchen.

' Kill her…' A voice whispered in Trunks' mind.

' Who?'

' Kill her.'

' Kill who?'

' Kill Ukyo… kill Ukyo.'

' No… I won't.'

' I command you to kill HER!'

Trunks jumped up from his chair. His eyes wear practically lifeless. He looked over at the corner of the room. His sword was there. He walked over to it and picked it up. Trunks looked toward the living room.

' That's right! Kill her!' The voice said again.

Trunks' body trembled. ' No… you can't make me.'

' I can and I will. Now… kill her now…. Use that sword and kill her.'

' No… I won't kill Ukyo!'

The voice growled. ' I was being nice… by not taking over your body completely… but now… I'm going to increase my hold on you…'

Trunks screamed in his mind.

' Now KILL UKYO NOW!'

Trunks walked into the other room. His sword at his side. Everyone looked up at him. " Oh hello Trunks… have a nice nap?" Keke asked.

Keiko looked at Trunks' eyes. " No! Keke… get away from him!" He shouted.

" What?" Trunks swung his sword and it nearly cut Keke. She looked back at her brother. " What's going on?"

" Trunks is being controlled."

" But by who Keiko!"

Trunks turned his attention to Ukyo. " Time to die Ukyo!"

Ukyo's eyes widened in shock. " No… please Trunks no… don't do it.."

Trunks' body continued to tremble. ' No… I can't….'

' Still resisting I see. You won't be resisting me longer.' The person sent energy at him.

Trunks feel to his knees. He grabbed his head in pain. " Ah! Stop it, stop it, STOP IT!" He shouted.

' Stop resisting me!'

Trunks opened his eyes again. He stood up. " Your time has come Ukyo." He picked up his sword again and had it ready.

Keiko narrowed his eyes. " I was right. Someone is in control of him."

Faster then anyone could see Trunks speed off and swung his sword at Ukyo. Luckily he missed and only cut in between her legs. Ukyo jumped from the couch and stood next to her brother. " Keiko… what's wrong with him?"

" Someone is in control of him… he's fighting it alright, but who ever it is… he's using him to kill you."

Ukyo was in shock. " We have to snap him out of it."

" I'll handle it sis…" Keiko said.

" But you are ill… you can't." Ukyo said.

Keiko put his hand in front of her. " I'll be okay. Don't worry…" With that Keiko disappeared and then reappeared behind Trunks. Trunks noticed him too late. Keiko smiled as he raised his hand and chop cutted Trunks in the neck. Trunks passed out on the floor with his sword next to him. Trunks looked so peaceful on the floor. Keiko narrowed his eyes. ' Why do I have a felling… there is more at work here then meets the eye…. Ukyo must not be the only one working with minds here… I have a suspicion that Kadin is behind this murder attempt… I just know it has to be him… I know no other man who wants my sister dead more then her. And he is the only one who knows where Trunks was at the time. Kadin… I'll get you for this! No man tries to make my brother in law kill my sister and get away with it! I'll catch you and your suffering shall be greater then you can ever imagine.'

Ukyo narrowed her eyes at the unconscious Trunks. ' So I'm not the only one trying to use him… but who? Must be Kadin… I knew I should have killed that bastard when I had the chance!'

Keke sighed. ' Man things are getting worse and worse every day. Poor Trunks. Someone is out to make them mistrust each other, I know it. I just hope it's not who I think it is… oh god, please don't let it be you Kadin..'

To be continued…
