Ironic: Mirai Trunks Saga
Fifth Day
Trunks and Lia were walking through the `horrid jungle' as Lia so lovingly called it, while Trunks carried another unfortunate beast that would be their breakfast, lunch and dinner; even though she didn't agree much with it.
"You're a savage" she said as she walked behind him and couldn't help but look at the dead animal on his shoulder.
"We'll see if you say that while you're eating it" Trunks said smugly.
"Idiot" she said crossly, now walking in front of him, since she didn't wanted to look at the slaughtered animal any longer.
"Yeah, go on, insult me... every time I win an argument you insult me, and to be honest it's pretty unoriginal and immature of you" he said smiling mockingly.
"Go to hell" Lia said.
"It's too late for that, because, in case you haven't noticed I'm already in there, and you know what's the worst of all? That I'm here with YOU!" Trunks said pissed.
And before millions of insults came from Lia's mouth, both hear soft and pained whine-like noises. Both start to look around, trying to locate where the sound was coming from. Then Lia walks towards some bushes, as the noise grew louder; when she finally made it to the bushes, they saw the beautiful animal that was whimpering.
"A unicorn!!" Trunks exclaimed surprised as he looked shocked at the beautiful white horse that had a white horn coming from its forehead.
"A what...?" Lia said confused while her eyes were fixed on the defenseless horse.
"You don't know what a unicorn is?!" Trunks asked surprised, while she looked at him with an annoyed look on her features that said `Of course I don't know, that's why I'm asking'; "...they're mythological creatures on Earth, very famous... I wonder how it got here?".
"Probably through contraband of exotic animals. People that dedicate to export estrange animals from other planets and sell them for ridiculous high prices" Lia explained, then she approached it slowly and saw it had an injured leg. "It's hurt... what do we do?" asked Lia.
"Well, the first thing we should do its get him out of here and take him to the cave so that we can treat the injury" Trunks said, and as soon as he tried to approach the animal, it quickly rejected him, "... I don't think it wants our help".
Lia delicately touches the back of unicorn, while says to it gently, "Come on, boy... it's time to go". Rapidly the unicorn quickly gets on its four legs, though with difficulty. Trunks watch as the animal limps as it follows Lia with no objection, and even allows Lia to pet him. "I think the problem is that it doesn't like you, Trunks... and I don't really blame him" she said as she smiled proudly.
"Oh please... the only reason it doesn't like me it's because I'm carrying our food" Trunks said making emphasis on his last words.
Lia laughs mockingly while says, "Admit it, Trunks. Nobody likes you, not even the animals of this planet". Trunks sighs annoyed and decides to ignore Lia's comments.
The sun had set and Trunks was sitting in front of the fire pit as he watched Lia, in the opposite end, sitting beside the unicorn. Petting it, and whispering to it; her attention was completely centered on it; it had been hours since the last time she talked to him and it was only to ask him if he thought the unicorn was going to be fine. It was completely annoying to Trunks how she ignored him.
"You're so pretty..." he hears her say for the millionth time. Trunks felt his blood boil, not sure why, but he tried to convince himself thinking that it was just the `silence' that was bothering him, and not the lack of attention.
"Why don't you leave him alone? He's gotta be sick of you by now" Trunks said slightly crossly.
Lia looks at him surprised for a moment, and then says, "Well, I don't hear him complaining".
"Of course its not complaining... it doesn't know how to talk" he said annoyed.
"Obviously… But it's not necessary for someone to talk to know they don't want you near them... remember how it didn't wanted to go with you? That's a good example" she responded.
"Anyway... should let him rest, he will heal faster" he said annoyed.
After a few minutes of silence, she says, "I think you're right..." then looks at the unicorn and says in a childish voice, "... it's time to sleep, cutie. Understood?". And for Trunks' surprise, the unicorn laid right beside Lia.
Lia chuckles softly while Trunks stare at the stallion annoyed. "He's so smart... when we're rescued, I'll take him to Amazon" she commented.
"Yeah and while you're at it, marry him" Trunks said to himself softly, mortified. But Lia had heard him perfectly.
"What's your problem?" she said surprised and crossly.
"Nothing... now if you don't mind, I'll go to sleep. Good night" he said coldly, as he laid on the floor, over a sheet.
"Oh no you don't..." she said as she approached him, then she sat beside him, and noticed his eyes were closed, "... what's your problem? I demand that you tell me; I haven't done anything". She waits for his answer, but never receives it, and starts pulling on his shirt, while saying crossly, "Trunks, do not ignore me!".
Finally, he opens his left eye, and says to her, "Lia, just leave me alone and go to sleep, ok?" and then shuts his eye.
"I won't until you tell me what's up with you?" she said, as she continued pulling his shirt.
Mortified, he open both eyes, and says, "And since when you're so interested in knowing what's `wrong' or what's `happening' to me? You've never cared before, why the sudden interest now?". Lia looks at him slightly surprised as she stutters; then Trunks continues, "...why don't you go back to pet and whisper to the horse and leave me alone?".
Lia gasps surprised and says after a few seconds, "Are...you…jealous...?".
"WHAT?!" Trunks yelled bewildered as he opened his eyes and got again on a sitting position.
"Yeah, yeah... you're jealous of the unicorn! Obviously, since I like the horse more than you..." she said laughing.
"Don't be ridiculous! I could care less if you like the horse more than you like me... and I assure you'll never see the day when I'm jealous, especially with something that has to do with you" he said smugly, as he once again laid back and close his eyes.
Those last words really had bothered Lia. Wouldn't he be jealous if the circumstance arose? `Of course not' she thought frustrated. She hits him slightly on his chest, while she once again starts pulling on his chest. "Imbecile" she said crossly.
"That's enough, Lia" he said annoyed, once again opening his eyes and sitting; but she ignored him and continues pulling his shirt, but then after so much pulling the shirt broke. Both look surprised at the pieces of fabric on Lia's hand. Then Trunks hears Lia snickering softly, until she finally broke in a scandalous laughing. Trunks looks at her slightly crossed, he didn't have another shirt, since that was the only piece that would fit him from the Tsunic ship.
"Lia, that was the only thing I had to wear" he said crossly.
She continues laughing, as she mockingly showed him what was left of his shirt. Then, slightly angry, he jumps over her, and she shrieks playfully as she crawls her way away from him; which was a bad idea, since Trunks easily grabs her feet and pulls her to him. She was now, laying on the floor, laughing loudly, and he placed himself over her, trying to get a hold what was left of his shirt; but she wasn't about to give up, and held it firmly. Finally, Trunks grabs his shirt, and when he looks into her eyes, he realized that they were both in a very sensuous and compromising position. His lower half was between her legs, with a hand on her waist, while she had both hands on his back; her faces just a few inches form each other. Both, just look at each other surprised, while they get lost in each other's gaze. Their faces slowly draw closer; Lia felt her heart beating uncontrollably while Trunks felt his body tremble with anticipation. But, for their disappointment the soft neighing of the unicorn interrupts them both. Which was like an alarm because Trunks quickly stood while Lia sits.
"I'm really sorry about your shirt" finally, she said nervously.
"Don't worry about it..." he said slightly embarrassed, and after a few minutes of stuttering he finally says just as nervous as her, "... I'm sorry about what almost happened...".
She nods, and says, "It does not matter... just make sure it does not happen again".
Trunks couldn't help but feel disappointed, that wasn't the answer he wanted to hear. "I assure you, it won't happen again" he responded coldly, and without any kind of expression on his face as he sees Lia going once again to where she was sitting before, beside the unicorn; Trunks laid yet again, on his sheet. He sighs deeply, as he closed his eyes and thought about how close his lips were to her. On how much he would've liked to kiss her; kiss her while touching her skin and feel her softness. But it was a big deception when she asked him that the `closeness' they had just shared not to be repeated. `It was obvious, Trunks... she hates you' he thought frustrated.
Meanwhile, Lia rested on the floor with her heart still beating out of control; having felt Trunks so close, had left her completely bewildered. She thought she hated him but now she wasn't so sure if she felt that way, she was beyond confused; her lips yearned his. Then, why did she ask him not to get close to her in `that way' ever again? `You are so stupid, Lia…you and your Amazon pride' she thought frustrated. She sighed as she closed her eyes; when finally, after a few hours both fell asleep, thinking on what `almost' happened that night.
A few hours later...
Lia and Trunks both woke up at the same time, shaken, when they heard an infernal howling. So loud that it was probably heard through the whole planet. Both noticed how the unicorn gets agitated and starts neighing nervously.
"What was that?" Lia asked as she tried to calm the stallion.
"I don't know... I've never heard anything like it" Trunks answered as he gets on his feet, and walks towards the entrance of the cave. It was then she noticed, it was still dark; the sun had not risen yet. She felt once again as fear inhibited her body, overwhelming her. Her body shakes as she held back her tears.
"What the hell...?" she hears Trunks say from the entrance of the cave, confused, "... the sun was supposed to rise a few hours ago… I wonder what's going on?".
Lia could feel that evil she once had already felt, closer than ever. Observing them, mocking them cruelly, whispering to Lia it would come soon for them. She placed her hands on her ears, as if trying to block its words from her head, but it was impossible; she could clearly hear its evil laughing.
"Enough, enough, enough, enough..." she repeated constantly, desperate.
Trunks noticed this, and quickly approached her, "What's wrong, Lia?" he asked concerned. But she ignores him, and just repeated `enough' over and over. Then, he took her face in his hands, making her look at him. "Tell me!" he said desperate.
Finally, she gets out of her `trance' and says desperate, "We have to get out of here, Trunks! As soon as possible!".
"We can't go, Lia. We don't have a ship. We're lost... tell me what's. Why are you so scared?" he said concerned.
Lia couldn't fight her tears any longer, and they rapidly flow from her eyes, "Can't you see you we have to get out of here now!? Its coming for us! Its going to kill us!" she said frantically.
"Lia, what are you talking about? Nobody it's coming from us, nobody its going to kill us!" he said a bit frightened, he had never seen Lia like this.
"You have to believe me, Trunks... it is coming for us, it is going to kill us" she said while she cried, desperate.
"But who?" he asked confused.
"Evil in its purest form" she whispered terrified. Suddenly, another howl is heard, "... NO!!" Lia screamed desperate until she fainted. Trunks quickly take her in his arms before her body made contact with the floor; meanwhile, for the first time he hears how that howl, change into a laugh, an evil laugh.
