The day progressed in a rather boring fashion. All Kuzuku could do was lounge around in confinement as he waits for someone to save him. Granted he was neutral towards 21 for now but still, he couldn't give up on getting out of here. Kuzuku was also beginning to worry about his frequent nightmares. He wondered why those tragic memories would not leave him alone for all these years. As dinner fast approached, Kuzuku was feeling a bit groggy when he woke up from his nap due to yet another nightmare. He walked to the bathroom to wash his face until he saw a faint image. He passed it off as a nothing to worry about and went to look at the bedroom mirror. As he walked over his head started to ache to an extent.

"Ughh not again! I guess I suffered some sort of head injury as well!" he thought in pain. Kuzuku accidentally deactivated the lights and the room was now dark when trying to navigate through the pain. He then began to here the voices of those villagers that damned him over and over again. He looked into the mirror and saw his own reflection. In a mere second that Kuzuku was trying to fight against the voices he caught glimpse of a bloodied reflection that smiled at him. His eyes dilated as he punched the mirror, causing it to break. It was at that time that 21 came in the room with his dinner.

"Kuzuku why are the lights off? And what happened to the mirror!" she said with worry

"Nothing happened. Don't worry about it." Kuzuku gave her the first assuring smile she's experienced from him. But in 21 perspective, she noticed that he looked oddly pale and decided to place her majin hand on his forehead.

"Kuzuku I think you should lay down. Your burning up." she claims. She help Kuzuku up and took him to his bed. She then cleaned up the shattered glass and went back to check on Kuzuku.

"Thanks 21" Kuzuku said quietly.

"No problem. Anything for a friend." she smiled

"Friend huh? Say 21 what was your life before being turned into a Android?" Kuzuku asked weakly. 21 one expression changed as she looked like she was experiencing the past all over again.

"Well I was a scientist in for the Red Ribbon Army along with my jerk of a husband. We were both young back then. But one day when the army was pushing him, he got worse than before. He started to perform experiments that would go against many scientist. As fate would know it, he used me to fuel his ambition. I was then later reborn into the android you see today. Back when I was younger my parents didn't pay much attention to me and I didn't have many friends. In sense that's all that I remember from my past..." she explains

"Haha now that I recall it, even though I used to be in my early twenty's but I am technically not even 10 years old yet due to having a new body. It kind of makes me feel a little better as in having a second chance." she said with a few tears streaking down her face. She tried her best to feign a smile but Kuzuku could tell that she was hurting. 21 felt her hand wrap around by Kuzuku's tail.

"Hey don't worry about it. The past is the past." Kuzuku said. 21 wiped the tears from her eyes and felt Kuzuku drift away to sleep. She couldn't help but stay by his side as if the only friend she'd ever had would disappear from her. Kuzuku was physically and mentally tired from recovering so 21 could understand why he would fall asleep so fast, especially with a fever. 21 was now wondering why Kuzuku broke the mirror. Was he still angry at her she wondered or was it something else. Hours passed and 21 still hasn't left his side. She was struggling to not fall asleep until she noticed him start to shake in his sleep.

"Huh whats going on?" she was looking at his terrified body.

"Sorry... please just leave me alone...Escape while you still can..." Kuzuku muttered in his sleep. This made 21 confused but also curious.

"Nana... I'm sorry...please" he continue to mutter

"Who's Nana?" she thought questionly.

"No stop! Nana!" his voice was growing louder

"I'm not...I'm not...just shut...up" He continue to say in a voice that now contained fear

"Stop! No let me save her... let go!"

"NANA!" he shouted he shouted and then shot up words with wide eyes. He was breathing heavily from the similar nightmare he had before. It still frightened him and was unaware that 21 was now looking at him with concern.

"Ku...Kuzuku?" she stuttered, wondering if he was okay. Kuzuku's eyes slowly moved to 21 and what she saw from the Saiyan's eyes explained everything. Then in a blink of a eye Kuzuku pulled her to him in a tight hug. 21 was a bit startled by his sudden action.

"...You watched over me didn't you"he said quietly. 21 nodded. He let go of the pink android and looked at her with sereneness.

"I can guess by the look on your face means that something happened during my sleep." he added

"Yes. You were talking in your sleep." she confirmed

"Kuzuku, I know this is not my place but who is Nana?" she questioned. Kuzuku sat silently against the bed. He was hesitating on giving her a answer as he didn't feel like recalling the past. Eventually he did so anyway.

"Well... when I was little, my Saiyan pod landed in the middle of a unknown planet called Codia. I was found when I was a baby by the owner of a orphanage and was taken under his care. But the villagers who resided on the planet wanted me dead on the spot." Kuzuku explain

"Why did they want you dead?" 21 questioned immediately after those words.

"Well as you can see I have a tail that gives irrefutable proof of my Saiyan blood. As I am the last of the pure bloods of my race they despised me as the planet had a bad history with the Saiyan race." Kuzuku answered showing his tail.

"The old man took me in and cared of me for a half of year until he was murdered by the villagers out of spite. That was when I was left with his young daughter who took care of me and the other kids after his death. Her name was Nana." Kuzuku continued

"Throughout the years I helped Nana with the chores, formed bonds with the other kids at the orphanage, and was educated pretty well by Nana. She would always smile even when she was drenched in water because of my pranks. Of course I would get scolded afterwards." Kuzuku smiled but then lost it in seconds.

"When I was alone, I was a very aware individual. I watched day by day, kids from the orphanage being adopted one by the other. I couldn't help seeing the happy faces of a new family. As I watched, I wondered if I would ever have a family like that and questioned if my parents were alive. But I didn't really worry about that too much since I had Nana to be my family." Kuzuku confessed as 21 sat there listening with sympathy.

Kuzuku sighed heavily. "But that all ended when I was 10 years old. One day the planet was attacked in the middle of the night. Nana found me in my sleep and picked me up as she ran to the forest. I couldn't help but look with terror at the scene. People dying on the floor, either burned alive or bleeding out on the side of the road as wolves feed on their soon to be corpses."

"Eventually I thought we were going to make it because we were able to find a ship and were about to take off until the leader came banging on the door. Nana then grabbed me and placed me in the closet and told me to stay quiet. It was then the intruder came in."

Kuzuku began to shake but continued on "He asked where the Saiyan boy was in which I realized when I arrived on Earth that he was referring to me. Nana didn't budge to tell him but in doing so earned Nana a hole in her chest. I was tempting to jump out but I knew I stood no chance and Nana's death would be for nothing if I did."

"The man eventually left with his goons believing that she sent me off in some other ship. It started to rain as I exited the closet and crawled to her lifeless body. Her dying words still stick to me, even now. She hoped that when I grow up I would be stronger and smile with no care in the world." Kuzuku finished with a smiled with a single small tear.

"When she died, I screamed in grief for 3 days as the ship took off to a Planet with sunflowers. I knew it was her favorite type of flowers so I buried her under a tree with in a cave that was surrounded by those flowers." Kuzuku said as he watched 21 cry. He grabbed her hand and cast his eyes downwards.

"I guess it's my turn to say thank you for listening to a friend" Kuzuku said

21 smiled at that and looked at Kuzuku with tears of joy now.

"Kuzuku I... I wanna try and change my ways. I wanna try and be a little bit more like my good half, to where I can find a way to control my hunger without consuming people. I don't know how you did it but... you made me want to give up this plan. I guess you've inspired me to do so." she said as she wiped her tears while Kuzuku stood dumbfounded

"I don't know how to make up for what I did but I wanna take steps towards that. But first we need to fix the mistake I made" she said as the sun began rise. Kuzuku smirked and extended his hand out and said.

"Alright I will support you all the way, new comrade" he gave a goofy smile as 21's red eyes shined a bit and turned blue with a white normal sclera. 21 shook his hand when she felt something smile deep with in as it fades away.

"Did my good half disappear? I can't feel her anymore. Could our personalities are now merged into one and my hunger...?" she thought. 16 stood at the doorway with a smile on his face as he watched a new chapter unfold.
