Ironic: Mirai Trunks Saga

First Day

He slowly opens his eyes, as he feels his body aching. He tries to raise his head to check his location, as well as to make sure his extremities were where they had to be, but he felt as if he was glued to the soil. He inhales sharply, but doing it, hurt him. He waits for a few seconds, until the pain decreases enough and slowly sits as he gathers his bearings, he could feel the hot sun on his face, as well as the non-stopping buzzing on his head, which reminded him of the explosion. It was then he remembered Lia; he rapidly stood quickly forgetting his pain, as he frantically searched that strange and unknown forest. He constantly yells her name, over and over again; desperate, thinking the worst has happened to her, until he finally sees a hand behind some bushes. He quickly approached her, and sees her inert and badly hurt body. He rapidly searches for a pulse, which for his relieve found one, though a very weak one. He calls her name a few times, as he tried to take her in his arms but he was too weak to make that kind of effort; and finally opted to move her, as he could, under a tree where they could hide from the cruel rays of the sun and rest, as he observed closely the strange place with exotic vegetation and with many mountains. He kept wondering how did they get there and above all, how they survived the explosion. `It's a miracle' he thought. He sighs deeply, as he rests his head on the trunk of the tree; and after a few seconds he falls in a deep slumber.
A few hours later, and with the rays of the sun still on his face, Trunks finally wakes up when he hears Lia moan in pain softly. He looks at her thoroughly until she finally opens her eyes and sees him.

"What happened?" she said confused.

"We are alive; that happened" he responded a bit crossly.

She looks at her surroundings, and says, "Where are we?".

"I don't know" he responded.

She touches her head as she straightens her body, and sits on the floor, "How did we get here?".

"I don't know" he responded again.

"Don't you know anything?!" she said a bit agitated and annoyed.

"What do you want me to say?! When I woke up we were already here! Though there is one thing I know, that the only reason we are on this planet is your fault!!" he said angrily.

"My fault?!" she said incredulously.

"YES! Or don't you remember that because of YOU the ship exploded?" he said furious.

She stayed in silence for a few minutes, and then says confused, "I don't know what you're talking about".

"How convenient..." he whispered annoyed.

"And… is the crew alright?" she asked worriedly.

"I don't know... they're probably all dead, we didn't have much time to evacuate the ship" he said more calm.

Lia sighs sadly, and stayed in silence. Trunks observed Lia for a few seconds and then says, "Well, I guess we should explore and start looking for help... you think you can walk?". She nods, and follows Trunks' lead. After a few hours and the sun still above them, they walked and walked only to see vegetation, mountains and strange beasts, but there wasn't any kind of humanoid or alien beings on the planet. She noticed that he stopped walking while saying, "There's no use...".

"What?" she asked confused.

"Walking... I'm going to take the sky and look for some help" he said.

"You think you're a strong enough to fly?" she asked.

"Just for a few minutes... you stay here" he said as he levitated. When he was out of sight, she looks at her surroundings afraid as she touched her head, which was hurting a lot. She didn't like the idea on being alone in some strange planet. Then notices that some strange noises were coming from some bushes; she approaches slowly and when she's a few inches from it, sees various serpent-like animals though they had legs, came running. She shrieks scared and starts running, not sure what to do or where to go. Trunks was returning from his search when he sees Lia running, he landed right in front making her stop suddenly, and asks her, "What's the matter?".

"Nothing" she replied panting, trying to hide how nervous she was.

"Are you sure?" he insists.

She just nods and then says, "Did you find anything?".

"No, nothing. The place is completely deserted, at least in this area... the planet is just too big and I don't have enough strength to search it entirely, but I'm pretty sure is pretty much empty".

"Then... what do we do?" she asked nervously.

"The best thing to do for now is rest; I saw a cave not far too far from here, we'll spend the night there. We'll keep the search tomorrow" said Trunks as he started walking.

"A cave? How awful..." Lia commented repulsed, while following him.

"I'm sorry, Empress, but I doubt there's a luxurious hotel here where you can stay" said Trunks crossly, his words dripping of sarcasm.

"Don't talk to me that way, idiot" she said equally cross.

Trunks decided not to say anything, since he had many things to worry about and the last thing he needed was to argue with Lia. After walking for a few minutes, they finally arrive to the cave; Lia noticed the place was all dirty, humid and cold.

"How disgusting... it's so dirty" said Lia as she looked around a bit frightened.

Trunks sighs annoyed and says sarcastically, "Don't worry, your royal highness, I'll send for the maid so she can clean this mess".

"Don't be so insolent" she said agitated.

"And you don't be so ill-mannered" retorted Trunks equally agitated.

Lia tries to calm her temper, and says a bit more soothed, "I refuse to sleep here. This place is dirty, cold, and most importantly, who knows what kind of animals roam here".

"Well first of all, there are no animals, so there's no reason to be afraid..." he said, and she hastily interrupts.

"I'm not afraid, there's not a thing in this universe that scares me. I just don't want to sleep with who knows what animals, it could be dangerous" she said proudly.

"...Yes, of course..." he said slightly annoyed and unconvinced, then continues, "...second of all, the so-called `cold' problem can be easily resolved with some wood and `ki'. Now, about the messiness of the place, there's nothing I can do about it, because I'm not cleaning, unless you, O Mighty Amazon Queen, want to clean" finally said Trunks mockingly as he snickered, which she didn't like.

"No, no and no! I'm not staying here! This is not worthy of an Amazon Queen such as me" she said angrily.

"Lia, get real. We're lost... we can't be picky in a situation such as ours. It's either the cave or out there in the woods, with the `roaming beasts', as you call them. Do whatever you want, but I'm staying here" Trunks said irritated as he sat on the floor of the cave.

Lia stayed in silence for a few minutes, angrily, when she finally sat on the other corner of the cave, away from Trunks and says, "Go get some wood".

"You forgot to say `please" Trunks said smirking, as he stood.

"Imbecile" she said slightly cross. He just laughs and leaves the place.

Second Day

Early in the morning, Trunks and Lia are awakened by the growl of various animals. Lia, who had been sleeping on the other side of the cave, asked frightened "What was that...?".

"Probably the stomach of some hungry beast..." answered Trunks. Lia looks at him horrified, and then he laughs, "... you're so easy, Lia".

"Idiot" she said agitated.

Trunks stood up and says, "Well, I don't know about you, but I'm hungry. Let's find something to eat and explore better the planet".

"That's best idea that has occurred you in the last 24 hrs." she said as she exited the cave.

Trunks inhaled deeply, trying to control his exhausted temper, "Calm down, don't let her piss you off... probably, help will come soon and you won't have to see her for a few days" he thought. After flying through the sky of the unknown planet, Trunks' suspicions were true, the planet completely isolated, and the only thing they found was more exotic beasts and vegetation.

"What do we do now?" asked Lia a bit nervous.

"Wait" Trunks simply responded.

"Wait for what?" asked Lia confused.

"Until someone gets us out of here" Trunks responded.
