Lost Prophets: Last Train Home
Nightwise: Eva

Trunks gave a soft grunt and yawned. He stretched out on his chair and sat up. Putting his hand behind his neck he rubbed out a cramp, and gazed out the window. The sun was sitting just above the trees. Wait Trees? Grumbling to himself 'we must have landed while I was asleep.' He stood up and walked to the door. Pushing the button the door gave a soft sigh and opened. He stepped out into the warm fresh air and breathed it in deeply. He spotted Raven lying on the grass with her arms tucked behind her head listening to music. He grinned and walked over to her. It had been a while since he had heard earth music.
He lay down beside her and turned it up. "What are you listening to?" He asked.
She grinned. "Lost Prophets!"
"What song?"
"Last Train home, it's just soo appropriate!" She said smiling.
"Oh…" Trunks listened to the song.
To
every broken heart in here
Love was once a part, but now it's
disappeared
She told me that it's all part of the choices that you
make
Even when you think you're right
You have to give to take
Trunks smiled. "Yeah your right about that!" He said smiling.
But
there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the
last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No
more time to care
No more time, today
But we sing
If
we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we
sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love
Raven started to slowly started to mouth the words before turning to Trunks. "Do you even know who the Lost Prophets are?" She asked. He blushed and shook his head. "What about Evanescence? Within Temptation? Linkin Park? Nightwish?" She frowned as he continued to shake his head. "Gosh you've never lived!"
"Yeah that's one thing your right about…" Trunks mumbled. Listening to the song again.
I wonder if you're
listening
Picking up on the signals
Sent back from
within
Sometimes it feels like I don't really know what's going
on
Time and time again it seems like everything is wrong in
here
But there's still tomorrow
Forget the
sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the
day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time,
today
But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If
it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever
fall in love
Trunks grinned. "They're good, think I might buy myself a couple of CD's and something to play them on before I go home!" He said
Raven smiled. "You'll have to pick up an Evanescence CD as well." She looked at him. "Don't forget a life long supply of batteries! Try Duracell they are long lasting ones!" She laughed.
Trunks grinned. "Doubt they will last long enough!"
But
we sing if we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing if it's not enough
And
we sing
Sing without a reason to ever fall in love
But we
sing
If we're going no where
Yeah we sing
If it's not
enough
And we sing
Sing with out a reason to never fall in
love
To never fall in love again
The song slowly ended. The next one started up. Trunks turned to Raven. "Where's Todd?"
Raven nodded to the ship. "Still sleeping, he'll be out soon…" She stood up. "In fact I might go and make sure he's alright!" She smiled at Trunks and made her back to ship. Trunks turned to the CD player. It read: Eva Nightwish
He liked this song also. He picked up some of the words.
Evil flies away
Dreams the world far away
In this cruel children's game
There's no friend to call her name
Evil sails away
Dreams the world far away
The Good in her will be my sunflower field
This was all he herd before Raven came back outside with Todd at her side. He looked up at Trunks and looked back at his feet. He was obviously still sore about what Trunks had seen. Trunks' eyes softened. He grinned to the boy.
"I think…" He said checking the small radio. "Evanescence is coming on!" He turned to the boy. "Do you like Evanescence?"
"Yeah didn't Raven tell you that sh-" He mouth was covered by Ravens hand. She grinned and pulled him to the side. She started to talk to him. He shrugged and walked away with an angry look.
"What were you saying?" Trunks asked.
"Never mind…" He mumbled.
Trunks gazed questioningly at Raven. Raven smiled and shrugged.
Trunks sighed and went back to listening to the radio.

"Right who's leaving to find him with myself?" Vegeta asked. Goten, Bra, Gohan and Pan stepped forward.
Pan scowled at her father. "Why do you have to come?" She muttered.
Gohan hit her over the head. "Don't be cheeky and I still have to give him a piece of my mind!" he stated flatly.
Pan growled under her breath, something about the size of Gohan's 'mind'.
They were all bundled into the ship. Goten sighed and turned to Bra. "It's not like him to do this sort of thing is it? Just to run off?"
"After what we caught them doing its not surprising!" Vegeta snorted. Pan blushed furiously.
"W-What were they doing?" Goten asked turning to Vegeta and glancing at Pan who was very red in the face.

The sun had set long ago. Trunks jamp back out the ship having just put Todd to bed. He walked over to Raven who was sitting under a large oak tree with her eyes shut. But he knew she was not asleep.
"It's great having Todd here, he's like a little brother!" Trunks said grinning. He sat down beside her.
Raven lay her head to rest on his shoulder. He smiled, he liked the feeling of having her this close. Then his mind raged. 'Forbidden fruits'. He sighed, but surly having her lying next to her wasn't that forbidden?
"Yeah he's like a son to me, I've taken care of him all my life. After I found him here on earth I took him back to planet Shade to meet the rest of the Dragons." She said.
Something then came to Trunks. "Raven when you were talking about Todd, you said you met him in the mental hospital right?"
Raven moved uncomfortably and brought her head up not looking at him. "Yeah…"
"What were you doing there?" he asked.
"I went to visit a friend, but she had suffocated herself, I was on my way out when I say Todd sitting on a table watching a clock." She sighed.
Trunks grinned. "For a moment I thought your kind were just born insane!"
Raven threw him a look that would have sent Vegeta scurrying in fear. He laughed, amazed at how different they were….

Bit boring I know, but bare with me, we need these chapters to fill in plot holes! I'll make it up to you all I promise! But tell me… should I have a sex scene with Trunks and Raven? ((This will be the last of these scenes, so if you say no there will be no others)) Or should I just have them talking? Either way Trunks has to say to Raven the three magical words for this story to continue and end…
