With Jaxon

"Ah!" Jaxon yelped as he shot awake. He grabbed his chest and looked around. He looked at the book.

"…"

"Bad dream." Jaxon shook as a tear ran down his cheek.

Boom! The sound of thunder caused Jaxon to dive under his blankets; he was terrified. What did he do when he was terrified? He went to Ty. He quickly reached into his bag, grabbed his knife, and ran out into the hall. Jaxon then stopped. Where was Taz? Who cared?

With Trunks And Goten

"He's going somewhere." Goten said as he looked over at his friend.

"His KI was high, maybe he had a bad dream." Trunks said. Trunks had his fair share of nightmares over the years, and one thing he was told was that his KI shot up really high. There were one or two instances where he jumped to Super Saiyan in his sleep. Goten and Trunks concentrated for a moment. "He's trying to find his friend." Trunks said.

"I'm going to go make sure he's ok." Goten said as he hopped out of bed.

"Grr, wait for me." Trunks said as he climbed out of bed and pulled on some sweatpants. He didn't like thunderstorms, especially when he was alone.

With Jaxon

Jaxon had his knife held up as he snuck through the halls.

Boom! The sound of thunder caused Jaxon to practically fall over.

"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid." Jaxon whispered over and over. Just then he felt someone grab his shoulder. He turned around and forced the knife straight into his attacker's stomach and gave it a big twist. His eyes shot wide open and his jaw dropped.

"You idiot! What did you do?" Trunks screamed as he kicked Jaxon away from Goten. Goten fell over and looked down; the knife was going into his stomach, but the big point of this was Goten was Half-Saiyan and the knife was still able to go through his stomach. Any normal knife wouldn't be able to do that.

"…I…I…I…" Jaxon was speechless. Now they would kill him.

"…"

Jaxon looked at the book and shot up and sprinted down the hall; left, right, left, down the stairs, across the room, left, right, left, door code five six four one one three two nine, down the stairs, left, right, right, fourth draw over, red bag. Jaxon grabbed the bag and turned, left, left, right, up the stairs, right, left, right, across the room, up the stairs, right, left, right, down the hall. Jaxon sprinted up to Goten, reached into the bag, grabbed a bean, forced into Goten's mouth and, "Chew!" Jaxon ordered. Goten chewed and he was healed. Trunks and Goten stared at the boy in disbelief. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please don't kill me, please." Jaxon begged as he looked at the ground.

"It's…ok…" Goten said as he got up. Jaxon just looked at the ground as tears ran down his cheeks.

"…Wh…what kind of knife is this? Where did you get it?" Trunks asked as he inspected the blood-covered knife. Jaxon bit his lip. "…Well?" Trunks asked.

"…Found it." Jaxon said quietly. The knife had strange markings on it on the blade and handle. Trunks then looked at the bag of Senzu Beans,

"How did you know where these were?" Trunks asked. Jaxon shook his head. Telling them was something he couldn't do.

Boom! Jaxon visibly jumped and hugged the book to his chest.

"I'm sorry." Jaxon sniffed; Goten and Trunks looked at each other.

"It's ok, I'm not mad. You helped me. I don't know how though." Goten said as he wrapped his arm around the boy. (BTW, Goten is a hugger.) Trunks looked at the knife, then the book, then Jaxon, then the book, then Jaxon. He didn't trust him for five seconds.

"What are you doing up?" An all too familiar voice growled. Trunks mentally said 'Uh Oh'. Vegeta looked at the carpet and then the knife, "The blood, explain it." Vegeta growled

"It was an accident, sir." Goten said.

"Did he do it?" Vegeta growled as he pointed at Jaxon.

"Please don't kill me." Jaxon whispered.

"I think I scared'em, and…he…stabbed me with his knife…" Goten said. Vegeta quickly walked over to the three and bent down next to the knife.

"Now how was this knife able to do that?" Vegeta asked. Jaxon quickly shook his head; The boy was visibly shaking. Vegeta moved over to Goten and lifted his shirt; there was blood but no wound. He looked at the bag of senzu beans, "Good work Trunks." Vegeta said; Trunks smiled but then frowned.

"He got'em." The boy pointed to Jaxon.

"…But…how could you have known where I keep these?" Vegeta asked. Jaxon shook his head again as another tear ran down his cheek. "Now why can't you tell me?" Vegeta asked.

"…You'll kill me." Jaxon said quietly.

"Hn…" Vegeta let out a sigh, "No harm done. You helped him, no one's mad, just go back to sleep." Vegeta said, "But I'm taking this knife with me." Vegeta grunted as he took the knife. Jaxon opened his mouth but didn't say anything; now how was he going defend himself? KI blasts? They didn't normally work the way he wanted them to. "Take him to his brother. That's obviously where he's going." Vegeta said as he left the three alone.

"…Wow, my dad didn't kill you, that's a first." Trunks said in shock. If he had done that, his backside would be bleeding, "…Wait, that other guy is your brother?" Trunks asked. Jaxon nodded his head as he wiped his tears. "Hey, relax, no one's gona hurt ya. Now, you wana see'em?" Trunks asked. Jaxon looked up and nodded his head.

With Vegeta

Vegeta washed the knife off and studied the symbols; he'd never seen them before. The energy around it was dark, and how was it that the kid was able to find the bag of senzu beans? All Vegeta knew was he was going to keep a better eye on the kid's KI.

With Jaxon

Jaxon stood next to the bed and stared at his brother; he was filthy, covered in cuts, bruises, burns, and blood, he had on some kind of mask that was giving him oxygen or something; he looked horrible. Trunks put the bag of senzu beans away and then walked over to Jaxon.

"So what's his name?" The boy asked.

"…Ty." Jaxon said quietly as he held his brother's hand. He had two broken fingers and some bad burns. Jaxon turned to Trunks.

"…Can we give him one of those bean things?" The younger boy asked.

"The grown-ups said no." Trunks said. Jaxon looked at the book and then looked at Trunks. "You just attacked Goten with some kind of Demon Knife. It's a trust thing, and I'll be honest; we don't trust you or your brother so until you stop being such a coward and start talking, we're not going to heal him." Trunks growled.

"Grrr." Jaxon's eyes began to glow red. Trunks took a step back and looked at the boy with wide eyes. Jaxon's eyes went back to normal and he felt his head.

"What was that?" Trunks asked.

"…What?" Jaxon asked.

"…Never mind." Trunks said as he shook it off. It was the middle of the night; maybe he was seeing things. Jaxon stared at his brother for five more minutes and then looked at Goten.

'You're going to sleep down here with him, aren't you?' Jaxon looked at the book, 'Yes, that's a great idea; stay down here with no weapon, and your brother in critical condition. If the Vashmallians happen to show up, no one will hear your screams as they drag you back to the Dark Place.'

"How do you get back to my room?" Jaxon asked.

"You're not going to sleep down here?" Goten asked. Jaxon shook his head. He didn't have his knife, which meant that he had no efficient way of defending himself.

"Ok, follow me." Goten chirped. Jaxon quickly followed while Trunks stayed behind and stared at the boy. He kind of wanted to give him the bean, but he didn't trust him. He couldn't, not after how Jaxon has acted. He let out a sigh and went to go back to bed.

With Jaxon

Jaxon stared at his room. He wasn't exactly scared; he was more terrified to sleep alone. Maybe he should have stayed down stairs with his brother, but no, he had to listen to the damn book. Goten returned from the bathroom with a glass of water and drank it.

"Aren't'cha gona go to sleep?" Goten asked.

"Mmm…" Jaxon looked at the ground as his face turned red. His brother had been giving him a lot of grief lately about 'growing a pair', and being a man, not a wimp.

"…Scared?" Goten asked.

"Mhmm." Jaxon nodded his head slightly. Trunks walked passed the two on his way to his room.

"You wana sleep in Trunks's room with us?" Goten smiled. Jaxon showed no reaction.

"Goten, there's no room on the bed." Trunks said.

"Come on Trunks, don't be such a meany." Goten growled.

"It's my house." Trunks gave smirk that resembled his father. Jaxon felt his eye twitch.

"…" Jaxon glanced at the book. Neither of them liked Trunks.

"Please Trunks?" Goten asked

"No!" Trunks spat.

"Grrr" Goten growled, but then a light bulb appeared above his head, "Fine, mind if I sleep in your room." Goten asked. Jaxon stared at the floating light bulb with wide eyes. How is that even possible?

"What?" Trunks asked in complete surprise.

"Hmph." Jaxon smirked; the book just called Goten a genius.

"So can I?" Goten asked.

"Sure." Jaxon said as he walked into his room.

"But…" Trunks watched Goten walk into the room and shut the door. Trunks just stood there, "Damn it. I knew this day would come; Goten is getting smarter." Trunks growled. He decided to not let Goten win and went back to his own room.

Boom!

"Wait!" Trunks scurried back to Jaxon's room and opened the door, "Fine, you two can sleep in my room." Trunks growled. Good thing it was dark, because he was blushing. Goten smiled and grabbed Jaxon. The two followed Trunks and went to his room. "Goten, you're in the middle." Trunks growled as he jumped on the bed and got under the covers (He wasn't going to sleep next to that friend stabber). Goten and Jaxon got into the bed and Jaxon fell asleep almost instantly. Goten didn't like the fact that he had a book in his face, but he just gently moved it and fell asleep.

Several Hours Later

"Mmmm" Jaxon opened his eyes and blinked; he almost forgot where he was. He stared at a clock in front of him '6:13AM', "AM?" Jaxon mumbled as quietly sat up. He looked over to see that Trunks was gone and Goten was hogging 2/3 of the bed, and all of the covers. With his book in hand, he quietly got out of bed and tip toed out of the room. Jaxon closed the door and gulped. He had no idea how to get around this house; he began to wander aimlessly. After five minutes, he came to some stairs and slowly moved down to the ground floor. He got to the bottom and began to explore the mansion.

"Grah." Taz barked as he put his head up. He was sleeping in the middle of the hall.

"Taz, come." Jaxon smiled as he held out his hand. Taz walked over to the boy and licked his face. "Eww, cut it out." Jaxon laughed as he scratched the dog/cat's ears, "…Maybe the nice people will give you a bath." Jaxon said as he walked with his pet.

"Grah." Taz grunted.

"I don't know where we are; it's a big building." Jaxon said.

"…"

"Oh, so you want me to talk to you?" Jaxon laughed to the book.

"…"

"Yes, well…thanks, I couldn't have found those bean things without you." Jaxon said as they walked into the kitchen.

"…"

"…The guy with the black hair took my knife. Don't ask me why he didn't kill me." Jaxon said.

"…"

"Well maybe you're right, but Ty is still hurt and I'm not leaving him." Jaxon said as he began to open drawers.

"…"

"No, I don't plan on telling them. We've been over this, I'll just wait until he wakes up." Jaxon said.

"…"

Jaxon walked over and opened a specific drawer and pulled out a large knife, "I wish they had something better."

"…"

"Do you think they'd notice if it went missing? They seem to have a lot of them." Jaxon Said

"I think we'd notice." Jaxon dropped the knife and turned to see Vegeta and Trunks eating breakfast at a table in the corner of the room. They were both dressed in fighting GIs and Trunks had a sword strapped to his back. Jaxon felt his heart speed up. Taz moved in front of Jaxon and began to growl.

"Grrr! Grr rah rah rah!" Taz barked and got into an attack position. Trunks didn't like that thing. It reminded him of dogs, and he really he hated dogs.

"Relax mutt." Vegeta grunted as he stood up. He walked over to the fridge and got out a large piece of meat, "Does this thing have a name, Jaxon?" Vegeta asked as he unwrapped it. Jaxon looked at him curiously. "By the way, you're welcome to have that, just don't use it unless you need to." Vegeta said.

"Dad, you wana give him a knife? He stabbed Goten last night." Trunks growled, "What if that had been mom? Or Grandma and Grandpa?"

"It's fine, he won't do anything." Vegeta said. His hope was that he could gain the brat's trust so that he felt like he didn't need the knife, "So this…what ever it is, does he have a name?" Vegeta asked.

"…Taz." Jaxon whispered as he picked up the knife.

"Taz, sit." Vegeta said as he held the meat up. Taz sat down and began to drool, "Speak." Vegeta said.

"Grah!" It sounded like Godzilla barking.

"Hah!" Trunks's eyes were wide open and Vegeta was actually laughing a little.

"What else does he do?" Vegeta asked.

"…Play dead." Jaxon said. Vegeta watched the creature fall limp, stick its' tongue out, and its' KI actually lowered. It made Vegeta wonder if they used that for survival.

"Alright, you can have it." Vegeta said as he dropped the meat. Taz attacked it and began to eat it up, "Now, what do you want?" Vegeta asked.

"…" Jaxon just stared at him.

"Come on Boy, I know you're hungry. What do you want to eat?" Vegeta asked.

"…B…bread?" Jaxon asked.

"Trunks, get the kid something good to eat." Vegeta said.

"Hm." Trunks nodded and went to program a service bot.

"…"

"Shut up." Jaxon mumbled

"Hn?" Grunted Vegeta.

"Mm…" Jaxon moved the book behind his back.

"…You haven't put that book down since you got here. Care to explain why?" Vegeta asked. Jaxon took a step back. "Bring the plate here boy." Vegeta said. Trunks put the plate on the table and Vegeta crossed his arms, "Nice big plate of warm food, right here, BUT you have to answer some questions for me first." Vegeta said.

"Hm?" Jaxon tilted his head.

"What's your brother's name?" Vegeta asked.

"…Ty." Jaxon said.

"…Is that it? Ty?" Vegeta asked.

"Mhmm." Jaxon nodded. Technically it was longer, but Ty didn't like his other name.

"What's that book? Why won't you put it down?" Vegeta asked.

"…" Jaxon looked at the book, "I like it." Jaxon lied.

"Come now boy, don't lie to me." Vegeta said.

"…" Jaxon said nothing

"Fine, where did you get the knife?" Vegeta asked.

"From there." Jaxon pointed to the drawer causing Trunks burst into laughter.

"Not that knife, the other one." Vegeta growled.

"…Found it." Jaxon said.

"…Just like you 'found' the knife you're holding right now?" Vegeta asked.

"Mhmm" Jaxon nodded his head as he stared at the food; he stole it.

"By the way, my name is not 'guy with the black hair', it's Vegeta." Vegeta said.

"…M…Mr. Vegeta Sir…c…can I please have j…just a little?" Jaxon asked nervously. Vegeta stared at him. The kid was hardly telling them anything, but at least he was starting to talk.

"Yes." Vegeta said as he sat down. Jaxon stared at the plate and then looked at Taz. The boy slowly moved towards the two with his knife and book in hand. Trunks watched him curiously. Jaxon got to the table and stared at his hands.

"Go on, I know you're hungry." Vegeta said. The boy looked like skin and bones. Jaxon slowly put the knife on the ground and grabbed the plate of food. He set it on the ground and grabbed his knife again, "Taz." Grunted Jaxon.

"Gr." Taz got up and inspected the food, "Grah." Taz barked as he went back over to his food. Jaxon stared at Vegeta and slowly placed the knife on the table.

"Here." Jaxon said quietly. Vegeta nodded and put the knife on his plate. Jaxon launched at the food and began to stuff it in his mouth.

"Morning Vegeta!" Goku practically screamed as he, Gohan, and Chi Chi appeared in the room.

"Ah!" Jaxon screamed and ran for cover.

"Damn it Kakarott, I was just getting him to relax!" Vegeta snarled.

"…Who?" Goku asked as he turned around. He saw Jaxon with a meat cleaver in his hand, scared for his life, "Oh, I'm sorry." Goku said, "I didn't mean to scare you." Jaxon didn't move. People didn't appear out of nowhere, it was impossible.

"Grrr…" Taz got up and moved in front of Jaxon. His teeth began to grow, his eyes were glowing red, his claws grew, and he looked mean.

"Hn." Vegeta held up some bacon, "Taz, sit." Vegeta said.

"Gruh?" Taz glanced at Vegeta and moved towards Goku, "Grah!" The beast snarled.

"Come now, I know you can smell it." Vegeta said.

"Gr." Taz slowly changed back to normal and moved over to Vegeta.

"Good." Said Vegeta as he dropped the bacon. Taz licked it up and went back over to his meat.

"…"

"Hmph" Jaxon ignored the book and put the meat cleaver back in the drawer. He then slowly moved back towards his plate of food. Goku, Gohan, and Chi Chi backed away to give the boy some space.

"…Did you have any problems last night?" Gohan asked.

"No." Vegeta said. Jaxon looked at him curiously. Vegeta simply nodded; Goten was ok so there were no problems. The others watched Jaxon sit back down and continue to stuff the food in his mouth. He soon finished and burped.

"So Vegeta, why were you up so early?" Goku asked.

"We were planning on training, but the gravity room was broken." Vegeta grunted.

"Oh, well we wanted to get here early in case the other guy was up yet." Goku said. Jaxon glanced up and remembered Ty.

"Why is everyone up?" Goten moaned as he walked into the kitchen. He rubbed his eyes and looked at everyone.

"Perfect timing." Grunted a voice. Everyone turned to see Piccolo. He too sensed that people were waking up and decided to see how they were doing.

"Hn." Vegeta grunted.

"Grrr!" Taz got up and began to move towards Piccolo.

"Relax." Piccolo growled.

"Grah!" Taz snarled as he transformed.

"Taz, relax." Vegeta grunted.

"Grrr!" Taz growled.

"Taz, stand down." Jaxon said quietly.

"Grah! Grah" Taz barked.

"Taz! Stand down right now!" Jaxon snarled.

"Grah." Taz changed back to normal and went back to eating. Everyone stared at boy.

"…Where is my brother?" Jaxon asked.

"You should know, you found your way there in three seconds last night." Trunks grunted.

"Boy, shut up." Vegeta growled.

"Well it's true!" Trunks yelled.

"Trunks Vegeta Briefs!" Vegeta snarled. Trunks almost fell out of his seat, "You dare talk back to me?" Vegeta spat. Jaxon began to back away. That guy was scary when he got mad

"What happened?" Goku asked.

"Don't worry about it Kaka…."

"It was really cool, me and Trunks were in his room, and then we sensed Jaxon leave, so we followed him, and then I scared him, and then he stabbed me with that weird knife, and then he ran off and found the senzu beans and came back and healed me." Goten said a fast as he could.

"Hah…" Jaxon took several steps back. He was terrified.

"…He…stabbed you?" Goku asked.

"By accident." Goten said quietly.

"…How did he know where the senzu beans were?" Goku asked. How could the boy possibly know where the Senzu Beans were kept? He just got here.

"That's what I asked." Trunks said. Jaxon held onto the book tight; they were so going to kill him. Gohan glanced around the room and then took a step forward.

"…I can take you to your brother." Gohan said. Jaxon looked up and stared at him. He nodded his head and stood up. "Follow me." Gohan said as he walked out of the room, Jaxon quickly followed.

"Trunks clean that up." Vegeta grunted.

"Why do I ha…"

"Grrr." Vegeta gave a very threatening growl.

"Yes sir." Trunks gulped as he got up and walked over to the plate.

"Grah!" Taz snarled as he launched at the plate and began to eat the leftovers.

"Ah!" Trunks jumped back and turned to his dad, "I'm not going anywhere near that thing." Trunks said.

"…You wouldn't be afraid now would you?" Vegeta smirked and crossed his arms.

"Grrr." Trunks blushed and walked out of the room. Goten quickly followed him. Vegeta was well aware of the boy's fear of mutts. Unfortunately he found out a long time ago and laughed at the poor kid until he cried; now he's a lot nicer about it.

Flashback; One Week After Buu

Vegeta and Trunks were walking through the park early in the morning. It had been a weird week with Trunks asking Vegeta a lot of questions. For Trunks, it had been an emotional rollercoaster.

"…Did it hurt?" Trunks asked quietly.

"Did what hurt?" Vegeta asked as he looked down at the boy.

"Blowing yourself up, did it hurt?" Trunks asked as he looked at the ground.

"A lot, yes. Actually it was one of the most painful things I've ever done." Vegeta said. He looked over and realized the boy had stopped. Vegeta looked at the path in front of them and saw a very large stray dog.

"Grrr!" The Dog growled.

"Mmm…" Trunks took a step back and looked at his father.

"Hn." Vegeta held up his hand and charged a small KI blast, "Leave!" Vegeta spat as he fired at the ground in front of the beast.

"Arr!" The Dog stumbled backwards and took off. Trunks just stared at his father; what just happened?

"Coming?" Vegeta asked.

"Hm." Trunks smiled and caught up with his dad.

End Of Flashback

"…So what do we do now?" Goku asked.

"Well, perhaps it would be best if we get the pods that those two came in and bring them back here." Vegeta said.

"Right." Goku nodded.

"I think Goku and Gohan should stay at Capsule Corp for the next few days until we learn more about our new 'friends'." Piccolo grunted.

"Why?" Goku and Vegeta asked.

"To keep a better eye on them. I was talking to Dende and he started to feel uneasy." Piccolo said.

"What do you mean?" Goku asked.

"He had a gut feeling that these boys didn't come alone; they were followed by someone or something." Piccolo said.

"If they're being chased by someone, it would explain why Jaxon is so defensive." Goku said.

"Hn." Vegeta grunted.

"So do you mind if we stay here for a few days?" Goku asked.

"If the Namek finds it appropriate, then I'll have the boy make up the guest beds." Vegeta said. What he was worried about was the little kid got out of his room without Vegeta noticing, and he stabbed Goten, which meant if he thought you were a threat, he wouldn't hesitate to kill you, and if there was a chance that other people were coming to possibly attack them, he wanted this place well guarded.

"Good, so me and you will get the pods, I'll have Gohan and Goten go back to the house and pack, and…" Goku looked at Piccolo.

"I'm going to talk to some people." Piccolo said as he walked out of the room.

"Good." Goku said as he walked off; Chi Chi and Vegeta followed.

In The Labs

Jaxon stood next to the bed as he stared at the sleeping boy. Trunks was messing around with his sword and trying new tricks.

"So why was your brother attacked?" Gohan asked; Jaxon said nothing. "Who attacked him?" Gohan asked.

"…Some…people." Jaxon said, trying to be a vague as possible.

"Do they have names?" Gohan asked.

"…They were big and mean, and I hadn't seen them before, so they were hired." Jaxon said.

"Why were they hired to kill you?" Gohan asked.

"Capture." Jaxon corrected the teen.

"Why do they want to capture you?" Gohan asked.

"To get money." Jaxon said.

"Bounty hunters." Gohan said.

"Yup." Jaxon nodded.

"Who are they working for?" Gohan asked. Jaxon said nothing; he just floated onto the bed and gently held his brother's hand.

"…Why do you carry that book around?" Goten asked.

"I like this book." Jaxon lied. What was this? Twenty Questions?

"…But it's locked." Said Goten.

"Yea…well…" Jaxon trailed off.

"Do you ever say more than ten words at a time?" Trunks mocked the boy.

"Do you ever stop being such a frakking piece of shit?" Jaxon spat as his eyes glowed red.

"Huh?" Trunks dropped the sword and everyone starred at Jaxon. His eyes went back to normal and he continued to hold his brother's hand.

"…What the heck was that?" Gohan asked in complete surprise.

"What was what?" Jaxon asked.

"Y…your eyes were glowing." Gohan said.

"What did you just say to me?" Trunks snarled as he picked up his sword and approached the boy. Jaxon flew behind Goten and shook in fear.

"Boy, what did I tell you about using that thing in the house?" Vegeta spat. Trunks glanced at his father as he walked in with Goku and Chi Chi; he put the sword down on the table and crossed his arms.

"Please, I'm sorry. Please don't hurt me." Jaxon begged as he coward behind Goten.

"What did we miss?" Goku asked. There he was again, begging for his life. It just seemed so…bizarre. Why would he be begging for his life like this? It's like he expected them to kill him.

"His eyes were glowing red." Goten said; Jaxon just continued to hide.

"Well? Why is that?" Vegeta asked as he looked at Jaxon; Jaxon said nothing, "We'll wait until his brother wakes up. In the mean time, Kakarott and I will go and get the pods that they arrived in." Vegeta said.

"Gohan, you and Goten go back to the house. We decided to stay here for a while, Dende has an uneasy feeling." Goku said.

"Right, come on Goten." Gohan smiled; Goten walked over to his brother, and Jaxon moved behind the bed.

"Trunks, front and center!" Vegeta spat; Trunks phased out of sight and appeared in front of his father.

"Yes sir." Trunks said.

"That means you're to hold down this house and if anything happens to anyone, consider yourself dead." Vegeta growled.

"Yes sir." Trunks said.

"I'm serious Trunks, I'm putting my trust in you on this one. Nothing happens to either of these boys, the two women, or the woman's parents, got it?" Vegeta asked.

"Yes sir." Trunks said as he saluted.

"Good boy. Make up the guest beds while I'm gone" Vegeta said as he ruffled the boy's hair. He and the others walked off, leaving Trunks, Jaxon, and Ty alone.

"Hn." Trunks turned to Jaxon who was hiding behind the bed, "Listen, you can relax because if we really wanted to hurt you, we would have done it before you even landed." Trunks said. Jaxon didn't move. "Why did your eyes glow red?" Trunks asked.

"…No reason." Jaxon shook.

"Bull shit." Trunks spat, causing Jaxon to stumble backwards, "Hmm…" Trunks let out a sigh and slowly walked over to the boy, "Are you still hungry?" Trunks asked; Jaxon shook his head. "…Tired?" Trunks asked; Jaxon nodded his head.

"Ok, come on, I'll take you back up to my room." Trunks walked towards the door; Jaxon quickly followed.

Upstairs

"…You see this thing?" Trunks asked as he pointed at the wall. There was a small speaker and button; Jaxon nodded his head, "If you need anything, press this button." Trunks said; he shut the door and Jaxon looked at the book.

"…"

"What did you say to him?" Jaxon asked.

"…"

"…No wonder they tried to kill me." The boy gulped as he climbed into the bed.

"Hmm…" Trunks stood in the hall with his ear pressed up to the door.

"I don't know why you think they're so mean. They've done nothing but help us." Jaxon said.

"…"

"What's a Saiyan?" Jaxon asked.

"…"

"…They can't be that mean." Jaxon said.

"…"

"Whatever, I'm going to sleep for a while. I hope Ty wakes up soon, then they'll ask him all the questions." Jaxon said.

"…"

Jaxon looked at the door and covered his mouth; the little shit was ease dropping on him.

"…"

Jaxon lay down and closed his eyes. Trunks waited a few minutes and then walked off; there something inside that book, Trunks just knew it, and he would find out what it was.

OMG A TALKING BOOK! IT'S 2012; WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE, LOL, JUST KIDDING. A 4,500+ WORD CHAPTER, I THINK THAT'S A GOOD SIZED CHAPTER. PLEASE REVIEW.
