The nights were growing cold in Washington D C and yet there was no evidence of Jescele or Xenta at AH. They had been gone for almost two months without a word. There were no clothes missing and no one had seen or heard from either of them. Gohan was in an uproar, demanding they find their lost agents least Agent Silver find them first. But no one took heed of his frantic warnings. He had other reasons for wanting them home or course, but he would not tell anyone why.
The two months had brought many changes to life at AH headquarters. It was more then obvious that Bulma and Vegeta had discovered the good in their still damaged relationship. No one had seen anything chance Vegeta the way Bulma was since Xenta was first on the prowl. Chibi came and went on his own sometimes with Miari, but mostly alone. There was a new air of sorrow about Chibi. He had withdrawn form talking to anyone except Miari. Marron had disappeared on everyone as well, but she called once a week from a friend�s house. Piccolo came and went almost daily it seemed but only Vegeta noticed and cared. He had his eye on the stoic green man waiting for him to screw up and reveal something about Xenta. Vegeta may have been busy with Bulma but that didn�t stop him from trying to keep Piccolo from Xenta. Goten was also in and out but he spent a lot more time at home than away. Eighteen and Krillin stayed the same, running around trying to keep things calm and Chi-Chi tried to stay out of the way.
Bulma was swimming laps in the pool by herself. No one else was around, just the way she liked it. She swam back and forth letting her thoughts flow. These last two months have been good. I�m getting closer to capturing Vegeta. A few more weeks and he�ll be mine for good. I wonder where Trunks is. He hasn�t been home in the last few days. I worry about him being out there by himself at least around this area. She swam with such dedication and force that she didn�t even hear the splash from someone else getting into the pool. Unknown to her Vegeta had joined her in the pool. He swam up to her grabbing her and pushing her against the wall of the shallow end. He looked at her with such passion it almost scared her.
�You want me so bad, well here I am,� he growled still pinning her to the wall with his body. She looked at him in shock.
�Why,� she asked him, �why now?�
�I want you,� he grabbed her wrist.
�Vegeta,� she whispered weakly. He tightened his grip on her arms digging his nails into her skin.
�I don�t car any more,� he blasted at the lights. Without much effort he pulled her out of the pool dragging her dripping body out of the poolroom. He flung the door to his room open and tossed her onto the bed. The door slammed and they were in total darkness. She was blinded for a moment but she heard the click of the key turning in the lock. She looked around in the shadows but couldn�t see him.
�Vegeta,� she called to him softly, her voice shook.
�Tell me Bulma,� he asked bitterly from the darkness, �why do I interest you so damn much?�
�I don�t kn-know,� she whimpered, truly scared of him for the first time.
�You know,� he growled at her, �when I first met you I remember that you were a wild one. You are a very friendly drunk after all.�
�What are you talking about,� she asked looking around trying to find him but he kept moving like an animal circling its prey.
�All those long years ago,� he chuckled maliciously, �I remember it as if it were yesterday. I�ve been dreaming about it for weeks now.� He walked out of the shadows. She looked at him pure fear in her eyes. She crouched on the bed trying to get away from him.
�Let me remind you,� he suggested evil in his voice, �it was late night, early morning. The weather was bleak. The street was empty save for her. She stumbled down the street obviously lost. In her drunken stupor she did not know she was in danger. She hadn�t the slightest idea that he was there. He flew down to the inebriated girl. She was hanging onto a light pole. He had found the victim for the night.� Bulma froze in shock as her memories flooded back to her. How does he know about that night?
�He harassed her and brought her to a cheap motel. There she tried to escape. She kept screaming that she didn�t want to die. Little did she know that he did not want to kill her. He wanted her body. He forced her to take a strange type of drug. She could not resist him anymore.�
�Stop! Stop it right now,� she screamed getting off the bed and running to him. She pounded her small fist against his chest. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her arms down to her sides. She struggled to get free. He pressed his lips against hers in a hard anger filled kiss.
�He took her and,� Vegeta continued, �and he forced her to have sex with him. He raped her! He made you do things that you did not want to.� She broke down into sobs letting her legs give out. He held her up by her wrists forcing her to stand with him.
�Why remind me of this,� she sobbed tears pouring down her cheeks.
�Because you don�t understand what happened that night,� Vegeta insisted.
�How can I not,� she cried, �I was raped Vegeta. A man forced himself on me then left me to die. He did not know me or care about me! All he wanted was to satisfy his lust. He left me by myself. I had to go home and tell my parents! I�ve never been the same! Can you even fathom what it was like to go through this alone? No one had ever been there before; no one that I know could understand what I�ve been going through everyday since that night! I had that man�s son! Some stranger that I haven�t seen since. I�m a mother! My son doesn�t know his father, or even why he was born! And you tell me that I don�t understand! Tell me then Vegeta what am I missing from story? In my life?� Vegeta looked at her. So much pain. He for once in his life grabbed her hand softly.
�Bulma,� he spoke softly, �what if he felt something for you?�
�He doesn�t even know if I�m still alive,� she cried.
�But I do,� Vegeta yelled, �I�m here right now trying to make up for the pain I caused you so long ago.�
�You,� she questioned her body paralyzed.
�Yes,� he hung his head unable to look at her any longer.
�How could you,� she screamed, �you rape me, then years later come back and try to trick me intro falling for you?� she bolted toward the door ready to run but remembered the door was locked. He�s lying! He�s playing on my weaknesses to get me to be submissive. I will not let him.
Vegeta watched her turn back around braced against the wall in thought. He knew she wasn�t going to take the truth well. He sat down on his bed watching her. Bulma suddenly rushed the bed fire in her eyes. In one swift jump she was on his bed straddling him pining him in a lying down position. He just let her do as she pleased. Reaching to the wall above the bed. She pulled down a set of handcuffs and chains. She tired him to the bed preparing to make him pay for her pain. He still did not protest. Once he was tied down she removed a sword from the wall.
�Blood for tears,� she told him, �my tears were like blood pouring out of my wounded heart now you pay.� He was unmoved.
{�Tears� by Xenta}
They�re the blood of those afraid to bleed
They�re the evidence of wonders deep
They�re the sign that wrong is done
They�re the mark of true emotion
They�re the indication of love
They�re the shame of the hidden
They�re the simplicity of complex
They�re a part of every person
They�re an inescapable escape
They�re the realization of the impossible
They�re the hope of still needed to try
They�re the remembrance of the past
They�re knowing you can�t go back
They�re fear of the unknown future
They�re an expression unmasked
They�re the blood of those afraid to bleed
She brought the sword down on him over and over again. Blood poured form the slices in his skin. He did feel the pain but it was nothing compared to what he saw in her eyes. It was nothing compared to the pain he had caused her. Death by a sword off my own wall how ironic. Vegeta prepared for her to deal the final blow to his heart. His would actually bleed when hers could not. She raised the sword above her hear. This would be it. She would be free of him forever. No one will care. They will thank me. She looked down at him, his bloody body, still in one piece from her inability to wield a sword correctly. All she had left was to kill him. Something stopped her and she reached for his chains. She couldn�t really kill him, at least not like this. She unchained him and he pulled at his blood soaked shirt to open his heart to her. The skin glistened with wet blood. He slid his hand over the skin to clean it,
�Go ahead,� he growled, �We both want this.�
�What,� she asked still holding the sword above her heard.
�You want me dead, I hurt you and you want me to hurt. So do it already. I have nothing to live for. I want to die! Kill me! You�ll be doing us all a favor,� he explained to her. Suddenly it struck her; he hadn�t fought back at all. He was allowing her to hurt him. She was allowed to see him at his worst.
�Why do you have nothing to love for,� she asked softer then she meant to.
�Because no one loves me and I�ve hurt the only woman I love,� he admitted to her in a growl. Bulma held tight onto the sword.
�If you love Xenta that much tell her. She-�
�Woman,� he cut her off fiercely, �I don�t love that bitch. I fucking love toy!� the sword slipped out of Bulma�s hands. She was stunned.
�Pick up that sword and drive in though my heart,� he demanded, �kill me!�
�No,� She said firmly a new kind of fire in her eyes. She leaned into his blood body and kissed him with a passion he�d never known before. When she broke away for air she climbed off him and lay down next to him.
�We never speak of today to anymore ever! Do you hear me woman,� Vegeta demanded. He turned her hear to look her in the eyes.
�Do toy hear me,� he asked. She nodded smearing his blood on her face. He pulled against his chains. She smiled wickedly and kissed him with equal passion as she had before.
Xenta was having fun playing house with Piccolo. She was even starting to forget it was all pretend, living at the Palace was so surreal. Xenta was even starting to let work slip back to the depths of her mind. She was so bust pretending to be in love with Piccolo that she didn�t even notice that her feelings had changed. Ashe had really found a place in the Palace, even Frieza was used to her.
She sat in the small living room like area watching TV. There was an interesting made for TV movie playing as she sat there thinking about her problem. I know I need to be here for Inveta but I also need to get a hold of Jescele. When she doesn�t call me after this long I really worry. If Agent Silver gets a hold of her who knows that out come. She turned the TV just in time to see one actor try to seduce another without any luck.
�I know how you feel buddy,� she whispered thinking about her rotten luck with Piccolo. I don�t know what could be wrong with him. No one has ever resisted me. Now I�ve turn down quite a few but never the other way around. Piccolo walked through the room in front of the TV.
�I�m watching this sweetheart,� she said with a wicker smile and a bittersweet pronunciation. Piccolo stopped and turned toward her.
�I�m just passing through. Heaven forbid I interrupt your soap opera,� he said bitterly.
�It�s a movie,� she corrected him.
�Same thing only longer,� Piccolo smiled mockingly. Xenta bolted from the chair jumping into Piccolo bringing him crashing to the floor.
�Wish I could say the same about you,� she whispered in his ear.
�As compared to what,� he growled.
�Vegeta,� she smiled triumphantly forcing him to wrestle with her. The TV flashed behind them, two actors having sex to cheesy music stood out in the background. Xenta managed to pin Piccolo t the floor straddling him hips. She had an animalistic gleam in her eyes from the thrill she was getting. She was close; she could rape his right there. She licked her lips and kissed him before he could protest.
In walked Frieza and Ice in a conversation.
�Oh my Kami Uncle Piccolo,� Ice screamed unable to move from her spot. Frieza�s eyes moved from the two on the floor to the TV and back. He pulled Ice from the room and pushed her other opposite end of the palace.
�Ice go check on things over here,� he demanded, � I need tot talk to Piccolo for a second.� With all the disruptions Xenta realized what she was doing and where. In an instant she transported out of the room, leaving Piccolo to deal with Frieza alone. Frieza walked passed Piccolo and turned off the TV. Piccolo finally stood up suddenly aware that he was in ripped clothes again.
�Piccolo we need to talk,� he said fired glowing in his crimson eyes.
�Frieza it�s not what it looked like. I can explain,� Piccolo insisted.
�So if this was not you and Eja having sex while watching porn in my living room then what was it,� Frieza asked. Piccolo opened his mouth to say something then stopped. If I tell him the truth that I�ll blow our cover and I�ll lose any possible leads on Agent Silver.
�I�m waiting,� Frieza demanded, �we�ve been friend for longer then the bad times so don�t lie to me.�
�Well you see Frieza,� Piccolo started, �I was just walking through here when she jumped me. I didn�t realize she was going to honestly. I wouldn�t ever start THAT here, in a bedroom yes but here no OH my Kami Ice!�
�Right my daughter who is scared for life now,� Frieza said, �I know you are dating Eja, I could just tell, but no more sex in the open.�
�Not a problem.� Piccolo agreed.
Xenta reappeared in her room on the bed.
�Wow Eja,� Ice said from the chair,
�Damn girl don�t scare me like that,� Xenta sat up looking at Ice.
�I�m sure Father is giving Uncle Piccolo an ear full,� Ice laughed, �doesn�t think his little girl knows about sex or anything.�
�Can�t blame him,� Xenta said, �you are his only one.�
�Still I can�t believe you got him to do that right there,� Ice changed the subject, �Uncle Piccolo is a very private person.�
�Correction young one,� Xenta sighed, �I was working on it until you came in. Piccolo likes to put up a fight sometimes. He knows I like to give chance.�
�There is so much I have to learn,� Ice noted.
�It�ll come to you with time. Just please not with Goten,� Xenta pleaded, �I know his type, dangerous, not good for you.� Yeah what Syain is? Look at me; I have a half Syain of my own now.
�I don�t know,� Ice said, �I really like him.�
�Give it time,� Xenta told her, �it will pass.� I hope for your sake. And mind and Piccolo�s. Though I�m starting to think he may be gay.
�Hey Ice do you think Piccolo is,� Xenta started.
�Do I think he�s what,� she asked,
�Never mind,� Xenta shook it off, �doesn�t matter.� Yet. But it might if it comes down to it. Piccolo, gay, who knew?
Natalie sat with her head hanging low. All the lights were off in the upstairs living area of the club. She was waiting but the seconds seemed each like its own little eternity ticking away so slowly that she could feel her life spinning a little more out of control with each soft tick of her watch. Of course everyone was out for the night, leaving her all alone with nothing to do but sit in the dark and contemplate how much her life was about to change. Chibi had taken Marron out of the evening to go see a new movie. Miari had tagged along with the cover that her was �watching out� for his younger, more naive self, and who can argue if that ends up as a free movie and popcorn? Mango had disappeared to wherever it was that he always snuck off to. Natalie hadn�t seen or heard from Jescele or Xenta in awhile either. She missed her best friends, and now would have seen the best time for them to be there with her. I was warned about this. She told me to go through with this so I already know the answer. Suddenly her watch alarm beeped at her. She sat up and started the walk toward her bathroom. Her knees felt weak and she wasn�t sure if she could make it. There were so many thoughts running through her mind and secretly she wished that Chibi were there with her. He should know too after all. No wonder he never questioned about all this. He can�t even remember anything even happened. Well here I go! She flipped on the bathroom light. For and instant she was blinded by the bright light. Once her eyes adjusted she looked at her self in the mirror. She was pale tonight and she looked weak. She picked up the test strip from the side of the sink. She could pretend to be ready for what she already knew was coming. She glanced down then did a double take. Negative. I�m not pregnant? But she told me that I was. Natalie stared in disbelief at her test results. She was supposed to be having Chibi�s son and yet she some how was not. Ok how do I explain this? I should be pregnant so why am I not? She took another glance at her reflection. She was still pale but now anger surged through her body. The test slipped out of her hand and into the trash. She hit the lights and walked out the room tears burning in her eyes. She blindly walked herself to her room. Without turning the light on she threw herself onto her bed to cry, something not in her nature to do. Why am I so upset? Why do I want to have his child? He cheated on me! He�s having a baby with Marron and I�m not having his child. Good! She muffled her cries in her pillow.
Miari walked up the stairs in the club. He had left the movie early. Chibi was too involved with Marron and the move was too rated G for him. It�s really dark in here I wonder if Nat went out of the night. He walked along the upstairs hall and noticed Nat�s bathroom door was open. He flipped on the light and walked inside. He took a quick look around, not really sure why but feeling that something was out of place. Nothing seemed out of palace in there. He turned to leave and kicked the trashcan. A small cardboard box and a little applicator spilled out at him. He reached down to pick of the trash and put in back in the trashcan. He froze with the box in his hand. This is a pregnancy test! Nat thinks she�s having a baby! Oh my Kami! He dropped the box in the can and picked up the stick. His heart pounding in his ears afraid of what he might see on the other side of the test. He closed eyes and said a little prayer then flipped over the test. With a sigh of relief he dropped it back in the trash and stood to go find Nat.
�Nat,� he called walking toward her bedroom instinctively. He could hear her muffled sobs coming from her room. He entered silently. He sat on the bed next to her and placed a hand gently on her back.
�Shh Nat,� he whispered rubbing her back lovingly. She turned and looked at him with her tear stained face.
�What�s the matter,� he asked. She shook her head then buried it back in her pillow.
�I saw the test Nat,� he admitted. She looked up at him again but couldn�t speak.
�Are you upset?� he asked wiping one of her fresh tears from her cheek, �you know that I love you no matter what.� He let his feelings slip. It was as if he were home again, back with his own Nat.
�Oh Trunks,� she cried throwing her arms around his neck, �I�m so confused. I love you and I really wanted the baby.�
�You could always try again,� he suggested remembering his place in the world. She pulled herself off of him and looked him in the eyes. There was that Natalie stare. The one that could make Miari do anything she asked.
�Could we,� she asked shyly.
�Nat,� he tried to tell her he was not Chibi but she covered his lips with her own and his lust and love for her won out over the small part of his brain that still worked. His skin was on fire with anticipation. He had been craving this kind of interaction since he arrived in the past. She reached to take off his shirt. Something woke up inside of the both of them. Inside of her can he animalistic nature of her true self. Her hidden self started to seep through. Inside of his came the fire of his desire for her. He knew what she was and it drove him wild. He wanted her to change into her natural form. He longed to see her in her most beautiful form.
�Is it alright if I change forms,� she asked her voice dripping with lust.
�Please,� he whispered into her lips pleading with her.
�I thought I scared you last time,� she told him stepping back to give herself room.
�It was something new to me. But I can�t stop thinking about you looking like that.� she looked at him and froze. Then why did you sleep with Marron? No I can�t think like that. This is Trunks and I now nothing else matters. She smiled evilly at him slowly transforming. Her body spouted gigantic wings and horns. She grew claws on her hands and feel. Suddenly she was taller and her smiling lips realized hints of her fangs that were quick to find their way to Trunks� neck. She broke away from his neck giving him a chance to take her in fully. His eyes devoured her beauty and natural form.
Shining Angel of darkness
My love for you is real
You came to me at night
A light in my eternal blackness
Tonight you are here
Forbidden desires
We thrive in now
My Angel of the night
They came together that night in lust and in love. Their bodies met in the heat of passion and melted into one once again. Miari had come back to warn his younger self of the dangers that he would face with this woman and hoe she would break his heart and he found himself drawn to her unable to break free from her. There was no way he could change the past. That is why he could not keep away from her and why he unknown had wound up in the most danger of all.
Agent Silver lay in her bed with her eyes closed. She was tying to block out the pain. Her one wing was slowly healing but not fast enough. For all that she could remember she never had been pregnant before and no one was telling her otherwise. She didn�t like that she couldn�t transform or heal faster. It seemed that everyday Demi had something new she couldn�t do or some new rule she had to follow. I hate this! I want my wing back! She moved slightly to relive some of the pain. It was the most unbearable pain she�s ever felt before.
<Look how pathetic you are acting>
Silver closed her eyes tightly trying to free her mind from the intrusion. Get out! Get out! Get out!
<You seem so much less like the great Silver when you are like this. What happened to children being a blessing? >
It just hurts too much! I don�t want to do this anymore!
<You need to remember who you really are. Listen to me Silver! You hold the power inside you just need to find it. >
The power for what? What can�t I remember that I need to? Is this about HIM?
<This is about everything! Listen to me for once! Talk to Cell find out the truth! Go seek the lost child of pain! Go find the family you seek! They are out there! >
But Dende will hurt me again and poor Cell, my love, what could happen if Lord Dende found out he was helping me!
<HE IS NOT YOUR LOVE! Listen to me Silver! You hold the power to destroy Dende. Look to the moon for your guidance. >
How can I hurt Dende? I�m too weak!
<All in time Silver. All will be revealed. Find the lost child of pain and look to the moon. There will be your answer. >
Please I need you to explain! Where so I find this child? What can the moon do to help?
�Silver please open your eyes,� Cell called now in desperation. Tell me more! Please!
<Ask Cell. >
Silver�s eyes opened and pain came flooding back into her body. She could barely move before the pain struck.
�Here let me help you sit up,� Cell offered genteelly positioning her against the headboard of her bed making sure not to set her weight on her regenerating wing. Silver still was in pain though, he head was pounding and her skin was on fire. Cell softly sat next to her on the bed; he pulled at the side of her shirt.
�What are you doing,� she growled trying to pill away but a new pain spread through her side and she froze.
�Sorry Silver but Demi�s orders to change your bandage ever couple of hours,� Cell apologized then went back to work.
�What happened to me,� she asked.
�Your side is still bad from Dende�s attack on you. You�re not bleeding but Demi still had this special medicated wrap for your aide. It�s supposed to help quicken your healing while you can�t do it on your own,� Cell placed a lime green colored liquid on a new bandage.
�I can heal myself,� Silver said viscously.
�Yes I know,� Cell smiled weakly, �I simply meant while you are pregnant.�
�It�s your fault,� she pouted. He nodded silently, �how long do I have to stay like this?�
�Four more months until the baby is born. According to Demi you are about two months as is,� Cell wrapped her in the new bandage. She winched in pain.
�Sorry,� he said softly loosening the wrap. Silver�s eyes traveled to her calendar. Her mind started to worry. Two months ago was one of my no memory tines. I was here and I wasn�t. I was with Dende and with Cell and with who knows whom else that I can�t remember.
�Cell,� she said softer then she meant to.
�Yes Silver,� he asked her pulling out two small light blue pills.
�You promised me answers about my past,� she reminded him.
�Take these for your head,� he handed her the pills. She swallowed them without question.
�When are you going to tell me about my past she asked softly but with a hint on aggression and aggravation.
�How about right now,� he offered, �those pills will also help you sleep better so how about I tell you some things until you fall asleep?�
�Where did I live before here,� she asked with a yawn, the pills already taking effect.
�You loved in a palace,� he told her moving a strand of her hair out of her face.
�Where was it,� she asked the pain was dissipating from her body with every word. She snuggled into his warm caring body waiting for her answers.
�It was underground,� he answered, �all of your kind lived there. It was realty big.�
�What happened to it,� she asked almost asleep now.
�There was a war,� Cell answered, �many people fought but the evil side was just too strong.� Cell placed her more on her bed so he could gently get up. She snuggled down in her bed as he stood over her.
�And then there was a wall built to keep the evil out,� he told her.
�Whose palace was it,� she asked.
�It belonged to the Jadeon Empress,� Cell told her. Silver rolled over and was asleep.
�It belonged to you Jescele,� he whispered to her sleeping form kissing her forehead.
�It still does,� he turned and left her room shutting the door.
�Hi Uncle Cell,� Mika appeared out of nowhere, �what are you doing?�
�I was checking on Silver, making sure that she was still alive. Gave her the medication Demi has for her then put her to bed.�
�Wow you really love her don�t you,� Mika asked jealously but in her manipulative childlike manor.
�She is very near to my heart Mika,� he told her, �I have wronged her twice now and am trying to make up for it.�
�Do you want to marry her,� Mika asked boldly.
�She is destined for another Mika,� Cell answered, �I�m just here to make sure she stays alive. Besides I�m sure there�s someone out there for Me.,� he flashed her an �I know your little secrets� smile.
�Sounds like a big job,� Mika said, �personally I would rather be put in charge of over seeing people�s deaths.
�You are just the most perfect warrior,� Cell commented.
�I would have to agree,� Dende said loudly to the both of them.
�Lord Dende,� they both bowed.
�How is she,� Dende asked Cell.
�She�s adapting to Demi�s cure will. She has a check up soon for the baby,� Cell told Dende.
�That is all, you may leave here,� Dende waved Cell away.
�Thank you my Lord,� Cell said and with a bow was gone.
�Now my dear little niece Mika I have a job for you,� Dende smiled evilly.
�Yes my Lord,� Mika was egger to get to work.
�I want you to take out your dear father�s new whore and bring him back here to me for a little chat,� Dende told her.
�YAY father�s coming home and the bitch gets to die,� Mika cheered.
�Go have fun little one,� Dende told her, �take as long as you need and make it good.� Mika ran off in the opposite direction from the one Cell had taken.
�You�re coming home brother. And I can�t wait to show you what I�ve done so far, �Dende spoke to himself chucking evilly.
