Chapter 14

If only he wasn't evil. She would run into his arms and never look back. He was still there. But he was darting in and out of houses. This was her chance. She new that if she raised her power signature high enough, quickly enough the Z fighters would instantly transmit themselves here and Cell would vanish. But if she didn't do it fast enough, Cell would stop her and would get very angry. She would have to wait. At lest until he was gone. Then he wouldn't get caught either. She needed to leave him, but she still liked him. She couldn't endanger him, it wasn't fair. After all, he had saved her. Twice.

He went into another house and she used this opportunity to tip toe into the back of the building which had turned out to be a warehouse. She wrapped herself in an old crate under various boxes and waited. She looked at her watch and it had been 2 hours and it would be dark now. She closed her eyes and concentrated but before she could even begin to do anything someone lifted the crate lid off and yanked her out by her waist.

"Guess who"

It was Cell. He had a look of triumph on his face. Probably for finding her. "Now why did you go and do a thing like that? A guy could get the impression you didn't like him" He changed his expression to that smile again. "You know what Princess; I don't know much about you do I? How old are you? Well?"

"I'm 16, nearly 17." How did she let him find her? She would never escape now. He would be watching her to make sure of it.

"When do you become 17?" God if only there were a back door or something she could try to make a run for it. She used the time in the crate to gather her strength.

"In about a week." (In her time anyway).

"Where are you from?" He was calm and was wearing that smile again. Even though she was annoyed that he'd found her. She couldn't stay mad at him when he was smiling at her. She found his smile almost seductive.

"I live in the country." That was a lie. She lived close to Southcity but she couldn't say that because he might try to take her there.

"Where are your parents?" How was she to answer this? Well Cell my farther is probably at Kamies look out planning OUR demise and my mother is currently hiding from you with 17# and 16#. Or where they looking for Goku? I can't remember if Cell had even met them yet.

"I don't know, like I said before. I'm a little lost." That wasn't a lie. She was. Out of her time and comfort zone.

"Well how did you get lost?" Ok that was easy to answer but she had to lie. If he knew that she was from the future he would ask her to tell him what happened to him and maybe even where the time machine is. Which she didn't know as she was stupid enough to leave it and just wonder off. "I banged by head and I can't remember much else"

"But you can remember your name and that you are an Android?" she could tell by the look on his face that he didn't believe her. "Now tell me the truth."

"I have"

"Look. So far I have no reason not to trust you and you have no reason not to trust me so let's not keep things from each other. Ok?" He had his eyebrow raised and his hands folded and did not look very happy.

Without thinking what she was doing, she did whatever her sister did when her boyfriend found out that she had done something she shouldn't have done. She put her hands behind her back, tilted her head to one side, took one step towards him while protruding her breasts a little, looked up into his eyes and battered her eye lids. She saw him melt.

"Ok I'm not mad at you but you need to answer my question." He took a step towards her and held her hands while looking into her eyes. She smiled and blushed.

"I may have borrowed, and lost a travel machine, bumped my head and found myself in the middle of a field. Stupid or what?" well she had told him the truth. She just missed out the part about the machine being a time machine. But she hadn't lied and this made her feel innocent.

"Ok, then you can live with me, if you want to"

"And you wouldn't mind?"

"Not at all"

"GRRRR!" He raised his eyebrows.

"What was that?"

"Erm, my stomach, I haven't eaten since yesterday.

"Well are you going to live with me?

"What's that got to do with me being hungry?"

"Answer me and you'll see." She hadn't got anywhere else to go for the moment and it was defiantly safer with him than on her own.

"OK"

"Excellent!" she was about to say cool but before her lips could form the words he grabbed her from behind and held her tight. "Don't worry my Princess; it will only sting for a little while." Her eyes opened wide and her heart began to beat faster as she saw his tail shoot from over here shoulder and almost cry as Cells' stinger was pointed straight at her.
