was currently working. He was relieved that it hadn't been destroyed yet. But suddenly a beam of red light flew towards the building and it exploded. Vegeta flew towards the invading house like lightning and looked for Bulma.




Vegeta: Bulma, Bulma where are you ?? Say something.




Vegeta was already completely desperate.




Vegeta: It's hopeless, she couldn't have survived it. If only I had taught her some of my techniques when she asked me to.




But suddenly he was torn from his thoughts. He felt Bulma's aura behind him.




Vegeta: Bulma, how .............


Bulma: Well, I've put up a protective shield around myself.


Vegeta: A shield ?? Who did you learn that from?


Bulma: I asked Gohan to teach me some fighting techniques.

Vegeta: Well, that went well again. And he taught you to fly too?


Bulma: No, I learned that from Goku. Where are the others anyway?


Vegeta: They are at home with Son Goku and Chichi. Tell me ............. did you see who shot this energy beam at the building?


Bulma: No, unfortunately not. There was too much smoke in the air. I'm sorry.


Vegeta: It's okay. Come on let's fly to the others.




Vegeta had to take Bulma by the hand because she couldn't fly as fast as he and she enjoyed being alone with him again. When the two of them got to the others, they immediately told what had happened. Everyone was amazed that Bulma could do something like that.




Trunks: That went well again, but we still don't know who this figure was.


Son Goku: Trunks is right. We have to find out who it was.


Vegeta: Exactly, Trunks, you stay here with Bra, Pan, Chichi and Bulma.

Trunks: Okay. But if something should happen and you need me, then get in touch.


Son Goku: We'll do it.


Bra: Good luck.


Son Goku: Thank you.




And so they flew away. The others could only hope that they can stop this thing. Trunks meanwhile tried to piss Bra off a little. He wanted to find out if anger really unleashed her powers. But it didn't work out that well. She didn't get angry. She just kept playing with Pan. Meanwhile, Chichi was cooking something delicious for Trunks, Bra and Pan. When they had finished eating, Pan went to sleep because she was already quite tired. Trunks was watching a movie on TV with his little sister. Suddenly she said.




Bra: Trunks, can we exercise a little ??


Trunks: You want to train?


Bra: Can't I ??


Trunks: Yes, yes, it wasn't meant that way.


Bra: Well then let's go out.


Trunks: All right.



They went out and got into fighting stance.




Trunks: Come on, go ahead.


Bra: Well then, be prepared for something.




Bra attacked. Trunks figured he should evade, but suddenly she disappeared right before his eyes. He was a little confused. He figured that she would probably attack him from behind, but she reappeared in front of him and gave him a hard slap on the cheek that ran a bit of blood from his mouth.


He wiped the blood from his mouth and then said in astonishment.




Trunks: Not bad for your age. Who can you do this from?


Bra: Do you really want to know ??


Trunks: Of course.


Bra: Can't you guess ??


Trunks: Nope.


Bra: From you.


Trunks: What ???? I should have taught you that ??


Bra: Of course. You trained me once. And Daddy used to train me too.


Trunks: And for your 2 years you're already pretty strong. Even I wasn't that strong.

Bra: Oh quash. You sure were a lot better than me. Do you also know why I am so strong?


Trunks: Hmm ........


Bra: Because you are my brother. And you are the best. You know that




And Bra had already hopped into his arms and fell asleep. Trunks liked his little sister more than ever and decided to protect her, even if it might cost him his life. He had gone into the house and carefully laid her on the couch and covered her. Bulma was added.




Bulma: She likes you very much, hmm.


Trunks: Yeah, I'm happy about that too. I always believed that I was such a lousy brother and that I couldn't do anything for her if she were in danger.


Bulma: But that's not true Trunks. What kind of nonsense are you telling yourself? You are their great role model.


Trunks: I am your role model?


Bulma: Yeah, have you never looked at her nightgown?


Trunks: Oh, you mean the picture of me that is up there ??

Bulma: Exactly, she doesn't have the picture up there for fun.


Trunks: I see.




Bulma took Trunks in her arms.




Bulma: You are not a lousy brother. You are the best. You heard it from her yourself. She once told me that she doesn't want any other brother than you.


Trunks: It's nice to have a little sister like that.


Bulma: You can go upstairs to bed. Chichi would have prepared one for you.


Trunks: No Mum, I'll stay with Bra tonight. I'll lie down on the couch with her. You go upstairs


Bulma: All right. Good night my son




She kissed him on the cheek.




Trunks: Good night mum.




Trunks lay down on the couch next to Bra, covered himself up and hugged her tightly. So he fell asleep. Meanwhile, the others were still flying around in the woods and towns, but they couldn't find this thing.




Krillin: There is no point looking any further here.Besides, it's already dark.


Gohan: You are right. Come on let's fly home.


Krillin: Shouldn't we let the others know?


Gohan: Oh yes.




Gohan called for his father.




Goku: What is Gohan?


Gohan: We're going home again.


Son Goku: Sure. Take Goten with you too.


Son-Goten: But Dad, I don't want to go home yet.


Goku: No buts, you will now fly home with Gohan and Krillin.


Son-Goten: All right.


Krillin: Hey Goku. What happened to Piccolo and Vegeta?


Goku: Piccolo has already flown home and Vegeta should show up here any moment. He and I will then look a little further.


Krillin: But it's already way too dark.




Vegeta was standing behind them.




Vegeta: So what? Do you want this thing to kill us?


Krillin: You're right. See you later, then.

Son Goku: See you later.




Krillin, Son-Goten and Son-Gohan flew home.




Gohan: I was amazed that the Goths held out for so long.


Son-Goten: What does that mean?


Krillin: You mustn't forget one fact. He's half Saiyan like you.


Gohan: Yes, that's right.


Son-Goten: Exactly.




Vegeta and Goku meanwhile wondered where this thing might have gone.




Son Goku: It's strange.


Vegeta: Yes, recently this strong aura could still be felt clearly and now it seems as if it has been swallowed by the earth.


Son Goku: It would be best if we split up. You're going south and I'm going north. I'll meet you back here in an hour.


Vegeta: Okay.




Both made their way. Gohan, Krillin and Goten had meanwhile arrived at Chichi. They crept quietly up the stairs to Son-Goten's room and he lay down to bed. After that, Gohan made krillin and himself made them a hot cocoa.Then Chichi came down.




Chichi: Oh, are you already there ?? Did you find this thing?


Krillin: No, unfortunately not, but Goku said you shouldn't wait for him, he would look a little further with Vegeta.


Chichi: All right.


Gohan: Mum, where is Pan ??


Chichi: She's sleeping. Oh yes, Videl called once. She said she would come tomorrow.


Gohan: Is she home again?


Krillin: Was she not there?


Gohan: Oh, not that important.


Chichi: Oh, by the way, krillin.


Krillin: What's up?


Chichi: If you want to stay here tonight, I've made a bed for you in Gohan's room.


Krillin: Thank you.




When they finished their cocoa, Krillin went to sleep.




Krillin: Good night Gohan.


Gohan: night.




Gohan wondered if he should give Videl a call. He mumbled softly to himself.




Gohan: Should I really still call you?I do not know. Yeah, I think I'll give you a call.




He went to the phone and dialed.
