I NEVER GIVE UP

By: AMCM74

Chapter 25

Mirai Bra stood right out side the room as another version of her clinging to an unconscious Mark. She remained at the corner of the door unnoticed. She remembered this fleeting moment. Soon, it was going to go so tragically wrong. Tears formed in her eyes and she felt a hand on her shoulder. Thinking it an attendant she looked up to give an excuse. Blue eyes met bluer. "Trunks."

"Bra, you can't change this now. You have to accept it. Come home with me." Trunks was careful not to upset her. He needed to get her out of here with out a scene from her.

"Let me stay." Bra looked into the room at herself and the man she loved so very much.

"It's going to happen exactly like it did in our time, Bra. You should not be watching this again." Trunks was adamant. This was not good for her in her fragile state.

"I will not give up on him Trunks." Bra looked on blankly. "I will find a way."

Trunks shook head "BRA, this is not healthy. You are no longer in love with Mark, it is becoming an obsession."

Bra ignored him as she watched herself losing it. "We need to get out of the way soon." Bra grabbed Trunks arm and pulled him off to the side. Their past selves moved past them. Jerking away from Trunks she was determined to be at Marks side at his end. As she as about to stepping the room Mark jolted and began to breath normally.

The nurse looked at the bewildered doctor. "I don't; believe it he is recovering!"

The doctor grabbed Mark's charts it is a miracle.

Bra drew a deep breath the senzu had worked! She stared forward to her beloved and Trunks grabbed her arm "Let me go I have to be with him! Look Trunks he is going to LIVE!"

Trunks was awestruck "Yes I see this, but there was nothing different from now and our time. What happened? What caused this shift?"

The nurse walked over to an attended and hissed in a low voice unaware she was being over heard "I thought you gave him the blood thinner and poisons?"

The attendant shook his head "I did!"

The doctor was going over the charts ignoring his associates. "I need to take this test and graphs to the lab I will be right back.

AS the doctor left the nurse ran over to Marks IV "I don't have access to enough drugs to KILL him like we were paid too. We will have to settle with knowing him unconscious and getting him out of the hospital before Mrs. Devero comes around."

The attended was looking intently at mark. "He is waking up. Hurry up with that medication."

Mark moaned as he opened his eyes seeing only a blurry light he fell back limp again, totally unaware of what was going on around him.

The attendant grabbed the monitor and pushed up the side of the bed. "I will get him into another room. You take care of the doctor. There is a fortune riding on our ability to get rid of this guy.

With that said they pushed Mark from the room.

Bra stood Horrified and Trunks blinked "Dear Sweet Dende. Mark is ALIVE!" he looked at his stunned sister "we have to get back to our time. Maybe we can track those two down and get them to disclose Mark's whereabouts to us. I know it is a long shot but..." At that moment Bra tossed herself in Trunks arms and sobbed. All the pain and grief where bubbling up in her with the shock and relief she was feeling

"He is alive, Trunks, But for how long? You heard them!! Gina wants him dead!" Bra stared up with huge tears in her eyes at her brother.

Trunk nodded "But Mark is tough. I am sure he is alive, and we will find him!" Trunks looked down the hall "come on we are going to follow them now. You are right there is not time to waste."

In another time and place..

Pan cornered Bulma in the kitchen cooking dinner as if it were just another day to the Breifs residence.

"WHERE IS YOUR HUSBAND?" Pan screamed at her mother-in -law "He is not in the gravity room with Aiko."

Bulma looked up from the pot she was standing over cook book laid out next to her "He isn't? Well, that would be a first."

Pan frowned "Bulma this is not funny he has Aiko with him. I want to see her."

Bulma looked over at Pan and sighed "I have no idea where he is Pan. I assumed he took her to the gravity room after the attack, but I must admit I have gotten pretty suspicious myself after he missed lunch."

Pan looked at the meal Bulma was cooking "He missed lunch?"

Bulma nodded "Yes and he is not here now, so what does that tell you."

Pan paled "he is not at Capsule is he."

Bulma looked to the floor "No Pan I don't believe he is and I have no idea where he could be."

Pan was starting to shake. Vegeta was gone Aiko with him. She ran over to the phone and dialed "Daddy? Yes this is Pan. Is something wrong? Well isn't that the understatement of the century."



Bra was fairly clinging to the cars dash board as Trunk followed at a safe distance. They had been on the road for hours and the city had given way to highway and highway to country roads. There were now surrounded by trees and other foliage as they drive along.

"You don't think they are planning on murdering him and dumping his body, do you?" Bra never took her eyes from the road looking for the periodic glimces of the other vehicle.

Trunks shook his head/ "From the look of all the medical equipment they loaded into that van I think they are planning on keeping him well enough alive."

Bra sighed and nodded looking through the trees she blinked in shocked amassment "Fellowes medical center" She grabbed trunks laptop and began typing. Trunks slowed the car and watched as the van pulled up to the door.

Mark was unloaded and moved inside

Bra gasped and her hand rose to her mouth "TRUNK!!"

Trunks took the lap top from Bra and read the information on it "Fellowes Medical Center. Formed in ... developing research for ... MENTALLY ILL? Sweet Dende it is an asylum!" Trunks jumped from the car and started for the door.

Bra jumped out and chased after him "Trunks NOO...Trunks!!" Trunks was barely restrained by Bra. "We know he is probably alive in out time Trunks. We can not take the chance of messing with the time line!! That is why you were sent here! to stop me from doing exactly what you are trying to do now."

"BUT BRA!!" Trunk motioned to the building "It is a FUCKING ASYLUM!"

Bra looked at the building "Yes it is, and we return to our time we are going to visit this place and get him OUT!"
