Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Summer Days ❯ Summer ( Chapter 1 )
The days grew longer and hotter. The unmerciful sun took its toll on every living creature that inhabited the dry and thirsty area. The nieghborhood grass had become straw and caked dirt, the ponds were now mud puddles and birds had no reason to sing on this scorching day leaving the cricket moles and locus to chime in the desert like heat as buzzards fed on dehydrated carrion. It was the hottest and driest summer of them all. Even the Z gang dared not to go out . Bra, slouched lazily on a limb of an old oak tree, sheltered under the shadow of its leaves and out stretched branches. Her boyfriend, Goten, layed just a few branches above her too lazy and hot to twitch a muscle.
The town was quiet like the dead till suddenly...CRASH!!! A thunderous shatter came out from a white two story home nearby both didnt even flinch from the sudden rucus as they continued to dream. The front door swung open as a boot came flying out, landing sideways on the walk pavement just outside. Immediatly after, Trunks stepped out of the house with a huge fustrated look on his face. Screaming was heard inside, "Don't you even try and hunny me!" and the angry woman, Pan came stomping out of the house behind him with a glass mug in her hand as she continued with steam coming out of her ears, "What do you think I am Trunks? Blind?! Didnt you think I'd eventually find out about your sudden date last night with that skank?!" she hissed, "Telling me you were going out to a bar with Ubbu! How dare you!!" and she chucked the glass mug with all her might at Trunks who quickly ducked as the glass shattered into a million peices on the concrete ground next to the boot.
Trunks threw his arms in the air, "Come on Panny! I really was out with Ubbu last night! I just stopped by Elena's before going home because she said she wasn't feeling well! I was just checking up on her, that's all! I swear by it! Now stop this nonsense, you're tearing MY house apart!"
"Nonsense!?" She shrieked as she reached for a broom that stood tall against the door way and began taking threatening steps towards the purple haired sayian, "I'll show you nonsense!" and she began whacking him on his back, shoulder, legs and hide with the straw end of the broom while Trunks yelled for her to quit and that the ends were stinging him. Finally Bra and Goten awoke to the heated battle and watched as Pan continued to beat Trunks senseless. And then Pan tossed the broom aside and ran back towards the door, turned and screamed, "I dont want you ever on these steps here again!" and with that, the door slammed behind her, causing the Welcome sign to fall and break in two. Trunks sighed with fustration and slowly paced his way back up the door steps, knocked on the door with the knuckle of his pointer finger and said in a loud tone,
"Panny... THIS IS MY HOME!!" Trunks then suddenly heard the snickers of the two above him and glanced up. It was then that their snickers broke into laughter causing them to nearly fall out of the tree. Trunks's teeth clentched as he went for the old boot on the walk way and threw it up at Goten who quickly dodged it by swinging his body like a monkey under the branch he was laying on. He continued to laugh as he dangled there upside down like a cheshire cat.
"Aw what's the matter Trunksy, your girl giving you grief?" Goten played "She runnin out on ya?" Then Bra added with a chuckle as she resumed her resting position on top of her branch,
"Or you running out on your girl? Who's Elena?" Trunks sighed and leaped with great agility up the tree branch below Bra, settled against the thick trunk and replied,
"Some girl I met on my way home from Ubbu's bar last night. I barely talked to her! Unfortunatly, she knew one of Pan friends and being the blabber mouth she was she went and told Pan of our aquaintance, never even bothered to mention that I really was with Ubbu most of the night!" Trunks shook his head, "Girls can really get a story screwed up sometimes." and Trunks glanced up between the green leaves at the blistering sun that hung above him and said, "When the heck is this sun gonna call it a day?! It's been like the Sahara for the past two weeks!" Bra and Goten always got a kick out of how fast Trunks was at changing a subject but so they played along as Goten answered closing his eyes trying to regain some sleep,
"You should take advantage of it. Go on vacation somewhere near the ocean and drink margaritas all day." and Bra smiled as she added with excitment,
"There you go Trunks! Sweep Panny right off of her feet by taking her to an island somewhere! I'm sure she'll take that as a reasonable apology!" and Goten nodded as he too added,
"Yeah, I hear Caliente Island near the Bahamas is looking pretty nice this year!" Trunks was silent as he thought with wide eyes. The wheels in his head were turning.
"You know I think you guys may have something! She would love me for it! It would sure make her forget about everything." and with that, Trunks stood and exclaimed, "What a great idea! I'm gonna take my baby to Caliente Island on vacation! We'll relax next to the shore of the ocean, drink pina coladas and wear mongolia flowers around our necks! It'll be like a dream come true!" and Bra and Goten glanced at each other, both thinking the same idea...It would be a good vacation!
