A/N: All right, this is indeed my first fic… so if you see anything wrong or out of place just let me know. You can flame me if you want to but you'll be wasting yours and my time, I don't pay attention to those silly little things. I'm not sure if this will be a T/M or not. Also, Krillin and 18 will come off as mean and overprotective parents, sorry, but it was the only way this story would work. Well, enough of my blabbling, read the story and review!





Earthly Possessions





Freedom. A desire that scares some people. Marron Chestnut was one of them. For years now she's always dreamed of leaving the Kami House and go off on her own. But no. Something always stops her. There have been a few times where she had the courage to go but her parents got to her before she could do it. They always seem to need her. If it wasn't one thing, it was another.

But now that freedom is happening, sure it wasn't exactly what she had in mind but okay. Here she was in the arms of a familiar lavender hair man flaying across the world far away from the Kami House. How did this happen? It all started two hours ago.

FLASHBACK:

Marron and her parents were invited to go to the Briefs' for a party in honor of Trunks who made Capsule Corporation's business double. Krillin and 18 were still deciding if they should go or not. Marron had no imput.

"What if she tries to escape again Krillin? We underestimated her the last time and it nearly got us." 18 said feeling a little unsure about this party.

"She does need to get out once in a while." Krillen replied.

"Oh.. you only want to go only to see you're old buddies again."

"Is there anything wrong with that? Look, we can't trust her at home alone, she'll get away, if we take her to the party with us, we'll have Goku, Yamcha, Tien, Goten, and Trunks himself to stop Marron from escaping." Krillen said.

His last words convinced 18 to go, but she still had a bad feeling about this.

So they decided to go, or rather, Krillen and 18 decided they should all go. Marron didn't care, she just wanted to go outside and see the world again. So they drove off in a hover car and went. When they got there, the party was in full swing. Marron wore jeans and a blue short sleeve shirt that showed to everyone she was 25 and not a little girl. Unfortunately, 18 made her wear her hair in pigtails which made look more like a little girl. The one thing she couldn't stand, having her parents control over everything she did. They never forced her to move out because they needed her to take care of everything. Shoot, they even plotted preventing her to move out. It just wasn't fair for Marron.

Anyway, here was Marron free from the Kami House for a few hours or so. She looked around and saw Chi Chi. When she did, her heart leaped. This meant Goten had to be here, she desperately wanted to talk to Goten. It's been a while since she saw or spoken to him. Marron began to walk around the huge backyard that belonged to Bulma in hopes of finding him. As she did, she started to walk straight with her head turning when she suddenly ran into somebody that made her fall to the ground very hard.

"Oh, I'm so sorry miss." He reached out his hand for her to grab it.

"That's okay, it was my fault, I wasn't looking." Marron took his hand and stood up.

Right when he was about to say something a loud voice with loud steps following began coming towards them interrupting their conversation.

"TRUNKS!!!! I can't believe you're flirting with women when you're supposed to be talking with clients about Capsule Corp. What so you think this party was for?"

"To celebrate my achievement with CC and not working. Mother I--" The man who is now Trunks tried to explain but was cut off.

"I don't want to hear it! I can't believe you're actually president the way you are! It's… It's ….disgusting!"

Trunks, who once had no expression now had anger and hurt in his eyes.

"You're the one who wanted me to take over CC. If what I'm doing is not good enough for you then fine. I'll go." Trunks snapped and began to hover in the air to take off. He was about to go right in front of everybody including Marron right in front of him when a deep voice called out, "Boy, if you leave one more inch, the rest of your life will be a living hell." Obviously it was Vegeta.

"Trunks, just calm down, there must be something you and Bulma can do to settle this." Now Goku came out of the crowd and stood right behind Vegeta in a stance that showed Trunks he couldn't get away. Soon there was an empty circle between Trunks (who was still in mid air), Marron, Bulma, Vegeta and Goku. Everyone else just stood there around them.

Marron at this point was a little to scared to move. She also didn't want to move away because then she would have to go back to her parents and be forced to go home again. So she just stood there not knowing what to do or say.

"Mother if you didn't like what I was doing with CC and I didn't like working for CC, then why did you make me do it?" Trunks said confused.

"There was no one else to be my heir, and Bra's to young." Bulma said a little bit to much like Vegeta.

Trunks hovered down and stood next to Marron again. "Well, I'm sick of it. I'm not happy and I'm getting nothing out of this. I want to leave, permanently."

"The hell you are, I need you to rule CC. If anything, Vegeta and Goku will make sure of that. Now, with that in mind, what can you possibly do now?" Bulma stated.

"This," Trunks grabbed Marron around the waist holding her very close to him with only one arm. The other arm had his hand against Marron's head fingers spread. He was going to blast her.

"Don't come any closer. Just back away from us and no one will get hurt." In the background everyone heard 18 scream and pass out. Krillen grabbed her in time.

"Trunks stop! You don't know what you're doing. Don't hurt Marron, she's done nothing to you." At this point Goten came out of the crowd joining Vegeta and Goku.

Marron's heart was racing, she found Goten. "Goten!"

"Marron, don't move, you'll be okay." Goten replied.

"So that's why you seem so familiar to me, it's you Marron." Trunks looked down at her and smiled. Dende, she was pretty.

"Trunks, don't be rational, you're just overworked that's all, look, how about the two of us friends go do something to get your mind off of things." Goten said calmly without raising his voice.

"No Goten, I'm getting out of here one way or another. Now that I know it's only Marron I have hostage, this won't be as bad." Trunks hovered back into the air again only this time, he was holding Marron with only one arm still. Marron made it easy for him to hold her, she was grabbing onto him for dear life.

"Don't worry Marron. Take Goten's advice, don't move and close your eyes." Trunks said in way to have Marron feel less tense being in the air.

"O-Okay." It was all Marron could say when she began to close her eyes. The free hand that was once on Marron's head was now on his own spread.

"Trunks no….." Goku said before Trunks shouted "SOLAR FLARE!" A bright light blinded everyone with their heads down. Easy for a clean escape. Trunks zoomed out of there holding Marron in both of his arms now. 5 minutes later, Vegeta and Goku recovered. However, Trunks hid his ki so they couldn't find him.

"I'm sorry Bulma." Goku said. With that, Bulma fainted.

"Marron." Was all Goten could say. Krillen was holding 18 who fainted as well. "Damn you Trunks," Krillen whispered.

END OF FLASHBACK.



A/N: So what do you think of it! Tell me when you review! I'll try to get the next chapter out later tonight when I can get the computer again. Also, I forgot to mention Bulma being a little mean to. Sorry about that but it was the only way I could get Trunks act the way he did. Well, until next time!
