Hearts Together Worlds Apart
Chapter 24: 'til sundown on day seven
Trunks had arranged for us to go and have lunch at the Son's. Trunks had left already. I told him I'd catch up with him once I'd found my foundation. A girl's gotta look the part ya know.
After finding it I too headed for the Son's house. I had been told exactly where to go but really I already could find my way because I could feel their strong ki's. I was half way I suppose when it happened. Something else powerful appeared and it grabbed me. Then I found myself somewhere else.
I could see dark walls and lots of computers. A large slimy human looking lizard held me in his grip and a tall human crab like creature stood in front of me. Yuk! They look worse than cell eating android eighteen!
"We've been watching you. You know the one called Goku." The crabby one said. I stuttered.
"I-I…do." I stammered.
"Good. Now just be co-operative and you won't have to die so soon." He said. He nodded sharply and two humans…or at least they looked human came towards me. They grabbed my right arm and slapped hot metal against it. My whole wrist was surrounded by hot burning metal. I winced and squeaked but held it back. I knew that these people were capable of worse. I looked at my wrist in horror. There was now a metal device strapped around my wrist like a bracelet.
"What did-"
"Quiet!" he interrupted. "You will go to Goku before sun down in seven days. We will track you when you go to him and we will kill him. If you don't go to him we will track you anyway and kill you. Doesn't that sound fair? Now bye bye!"
Then I was back in the sky again. I descended to the ground. No! How could this happen! What do I do now! How could I have just let them do that! Why didn't I fight them! Why didn't I fight!
But I knew why…there was more of them than there was of me and I although I was saiyan in body and heart I was human still in mind. I cried for a little while before heading back to capsule corp. I couldn't go to the Son's house now.
Bulma looked at me coming in.
"Jesse? Why aren't you at Chichi's? Is something wrong?" she asked.
"I just didn't feel well. I got a way but I couldn't fly much further and I lost trace of their ki's so I just walked back here." I said numbly. Where the hell did that excuse come from!
"Do you want to take a ship, they've got built in maps? Or don't you feel well enough?" Bulma asked. I shook my head.
"I think I'll just go and get some sleep." I said. So I did.
Everything was going so perfect… Why me? Everything always goes wrong… I have to warn Goku… But how if they track me going somewhere near him they'll kill me… Wait how will they know if I'm near Goku? Surely if there sensed I was near a large ki…but if they could sense his ki then they wouldn't need me… Unless there's a camera on this thing… Wait! What am I thinking! Bulma and Trunks are geniuses! They can bust this thing off me and then those monsters won't find Goku. But if they found me once, won't they find me again? What did they mean they were watching me? Surely that means they can find Goku at any time… I just don't get it…
Author's Notes: Short chapter I know but at least it is one. Will Jesse ever get out of this dilemma? Could she just get Goku killed and go back to living normally with Trunks and Goten?
