[Trevor Belmont]

9/9/2020

Grasslands rest stop

7AM

Trevor wakes up and looks around, the scenery looks like the Grasslands but more peaceful like before Frost arrived, toads and other people are playing in the fields.

Trevor: Am I dreaming again? I don't feel the ominous presence.

Trevor walks up to a tree a yoshi jumps out and runs away with an apple in its mouth

Trevor: heh.. cute guys.. but why am I dreaming this? randomness no doubt.

a small ball of light flutters out of the trunk of the tree it beckons Trevor to follow it Trevor walks with the fairy for a bit he stops at a clearing in the forest, it's quiet save for the sound of the wind in the trees and the local fauna.

Sypha: Took you long enough Trevvie.

Trevor: Sypha? what's going on?

the ball of light flits around Sypha she looks at it and smiles warmly.

Sypha: our child of light led you here.

Trevor: child of light?

Sypha: Yes Trevor, our son. He wanted to see you, and this.. sadly is the only way he can.

Trevor: Julius..

the ball of light forms into a small boy, older than what Julius woulda been had he lived.

Julius: Father...

Trevor drops to his knees and hugs the boy

Trevor: I don't understand why im here though. its great to see you guys but..

Sypha: Well, i guess we just wanted to see you okay?

Trevor: Heh, yeah..

Trevor pulls away the boy stands by Sypha

Trevor: you look a lot like me kiddo..

Sypha: Trevor, there is one thing, remember when you transformed into a super saiyan 2? did you feel something... "leave" you for lack of a better term?

Trevor: how could i forget... Yeah, I did now that you mention it... its strange ever since then I've actually started to be able to control myself better. and ive felt less and less of a need to... well bury the pain with drink and *cough* you know

Sypha: yeah... i know

Trevor: Sorry...

Sypha: Well whatever that THING was, I think its joined up with Frost.

Trevor: So whatever form that... Darkness took is probably one of his generals then. No doubt Frost would want someone as strong as me on his side.

Sypha: just be ready.

Trevor: I will be ready.

Sypha: looks like our times running out. its time to wake up sleepy head.

Trevor: I miss you.

the world fades away back to reality Trevor wakes up in the Inn he climbs out of bed and freshens up in the bathroom he looks in the mirror the person looking back at him has a determined glare.

Trevor: I can feel him... he's out there, my dark reflection.

the whip, coiled up and resting on a tall dresser gives off a glow, the spirit inside senses Trevor's other half, Trevor walks over to the Vampire Killer and picks it up.

Trevor: you feel him too? Heh, I can tell you're rarin to go.

Trevor returns to the bathroom he continues his morning routine one final look in the mirror, he smirks.

Trevor: I'm tired of looking back... tired of looking that way, all the things life has thrown at me from now on, ill never turn back again.

Trevor walks out puts on his battle clothes and secures the whip to his belt he fully stocks up on sub weapons he walks out of the bedroom he knocks on ally's door

Ally: Nobody home

Trevor: Very funny missy, get up its trainin time.

Ally: 5 more minutes.

Trevor: Gee, i thought you wanted to be a saiyan warrior

Ally: yeah but its so earllly

Trevor: well alright i guess you win

Ally: that was easy...

Trevor snaps his fingers and a small storm tornado lifts ally out of her bed and plonks her on the floor butt first.

Ally: OOF! Hey!!

Trevor laughs

Ally opens the door and looks at Trevor, her hair looks like she just stepped into a wind tunnel

Trevor laughs some more

Ally: very funny gramps, ugh lemme get ready at least.

Trevor: ehehhehehee ohohohohoho!!

Mickie: you have to teach me Storm Tornado so I can do that to the girls.

Tori: No way! its bad enough Katie keeps using Shotgun Ice to freeze my butt!

Katie: it's just such a big target...

Tori: yeah well cut it out.

Katie: ooookaaaay.

after some breakfast Trevor and Ally are in a clearing with plenty of room for training

Ally: so what are we doing first?

Trevor: You're going to do 100 reps of punches and kicks on that tree right there looks pretty sturdy.

Ally: more of this? aint ya gonna teach me any ki attacks? Flight? that stupid tornado thing?

Trevor: No you have to show me if your basic strikes have improved at all, dont be impatient this aint a sprint.

Ally: fine, wait a 100? on this tree? im gonna break a bone!

Trevor: you'll be fine.

Ally takes a bit but she completes her reps the tree shows some signs of damage.

Trevor: hm. give it one more good kick, really focus your power.

ally: got it... HAAA

Ally tries a super kick the tree snaps in hallf and falls over.

Ally: woo! i did it!

Trevor: not bad. now 5 more sets of 100 on those trees.

Ally: are you..

Trevor: Yes

Ally: you're insane, im getting Mickie to train me instead.

Trevor: who do you think trained her?

Ally: I dunno, her dad?

Trevor: Her dad was not a saiyan warrior, and her mother died in childbirth. the person who trained Mickie.. is me.

Ally: you... you're kiddin me?

Trevor: im not. but you know something, maybe you'd prefer to train on a person for once instead of something that can't fight back.

Trevor gets up and walks towards Ally

Trevor: it's time you learned something new

Trevor quickly vanishes before Ally can set up and knocks her down with a kick when he reappears behind her she gets up and faces Trevor

Trevor: expect the unexpected.

Ally: how can i expect anything when you move so fast?

Trevor vanishes again he darts around the area Ally tries find him but she can't follow his movements.

Ally: Hey come on im still new to this.

Trevor: instead of using your eyes to follow, focus your energy try to sense my energy, ill even go Super Saiyan.

Ally: Super what!?

Trevor suddenly reappears and flicks Ally on the nose

Ally: Hey!

Trevor: HAAAAAAAA!!!

Trevor powers up into SSJ1

Trevor: Focus your mind, your energy, try to lock onto the power im putting out should be easy as this forms still unmastered so im putting out a lot.

Trevor darts around again, somehow faster than before Ally focuses she closes her eyes.

Trevor: Anyone can learn to sense energy, all of us can.

Ally: im... wait im feeling something

Trevor: pickin it up already eh? [shes a natural..] alright! now see if you can land a punch on me!

Ally focuses she opens her eyes she can start to see Trevor moving around at high speed she throws a punch where she thinks he is and misses

Trevor: close! try again!

ally tries again narrowly missing

Ally: Grrr

Trevor: focus! and keep your emotions in check! remember what Mickie said. believe me when i say this she knows all too well what anger can do to a sweet person like her. and someone like me... I've spent a lot of time with her ever since training her back in 2017. Keep calm, breathe, keep your mind as calm as possible.

Ally does some deep breaths she calms down and keeps feeling out Trevor's movements.

Ally: There!! HAAA!

Ally throws a super kick and it hits Trevor in the gut

Trevor: OOOF!!

Ally: gotya!

Trevor hunches over holding his gut.

Trevor: That kick had some power, nice one. you managed to hurt me at Super Saiyan. lets see you keep up when the enemy presses his attack though HRRAAGH!!

Trevor charges and launches a flurry of punches and kicks at Ally she goes on the defensive blocking and dodging

Ally: geez come on you're a super saiyan im at a disadvantage here

Trevor: think the enemy's gonna care? Frost is from a race that has no name but we just call the Frieza Race or Frost Demons they were transforming into twisted new forms that give them huge power boosts even before Super Saiyans started popping up. Frost is probably an older member of the race too... if he wanted to he could just bust out his Final Form and *snap* kill us all. and it might come to that, so we gotta be ready!

Ally is taking some hits but returning some of her own as Trevor talks

Ally: how do you know about the Frieza Race? you couldn't have been alive when he was.

Trevor dodges allys strike and hits a haymaker knocking her back a few feet she drops to one knee

Ally: darnit!! ouch....

Trevor: you did pretty well... tradin blows with a super saiyan there.  waddya say we call it?

Ally: come on at least teach the Kamehameha.

Trevor: if you can focus your energy to sense Ki and my movements, you should be able to channel it into a blast already.

Ally: well thats true.... hmm

Trevor: Alright then, the most basic of Ki blasts, from the turtle hermit Master Roshi. ill show you the stance and proper form but know that a kamehameha can be channeled not just in the hands.

Ally: huh?

Trevor smirks as he jumps high into the air

Trevor: watch this! kaaaameeeeeeehaaaaaaameeeeeeee

Trevor straightens his body out toward the ground

Trevor: HAAAA!!!

he channels a kamehameha from his feet and propels himself down he turns a flip and superhero lands smashing the ground under him.

Ally: Oh... COOL that's awesome!

Trevor: Alright, now a Kamehameha as Roshi intended.

Trevor takes the classic stance

Trevor: you're focusing Ki into your hands thats really the most important thing, the stance... i think its mostly just flair honestly.. hehehe

Ally: i guess it is, since you just blasted one out of your feet.

Ally imitates the stance she focuses energy in her cupped hands

Trevor and Ally: Kaaaa meeee haaaaa meeeeeee....

Ally focuses hard energy begins forming in her hands

Trevor: alright see that big boulder over yonder? blast it to dust!!

Ally: HAAAAA!!!!

Ally fires the blast it connects with the rock it blows a decent sized hole in it.

Ally: what? for real!? thats all I could..

Trevor: hehehehe hey not bad for a first Kamehameha, don't worry ive been at this longer than you have afterall.

Trevor fires his kamehameha and finishes the boulder off theres nothing but dust left.

Ally: Wow... yours was a lot bigger than mine...

Trevor: heh, that wasn't even a Super Kamehameha.

Ally: a what now?

Trevor: Dont worry about it, c'mon the hours up lets head back.

Trevor powers down and returns to the rest stop with Ally

Mickie: Saw the fireworks from here guys, your first Kamehameha huh?

Ally: yeah. didn't destroy the boulder though

Mickie: Patience padawan, you will get there.

Ally: well, who's gonna train me next time?

Mickie: eager... i like that.. hmmm i'll have to think about it.

Ally: btw Trevor, you never answered my question. How do you know how the Frieza Race... specifically Frieza?

Trevor: Just stories from my grandpa, he was alive back in those times he sometimes supported the Z-Warriors in battle, Goku got a bulk of the wins but gramps notched a few during times Goku was out of commission or.. dead.

Ally: Wait what?

Trevor: you see back then there were this magical wish granting orbs called Dragonballs that could do all sorts of miraculous things, even revive the dead, Goku actually died in battle against Raditz and Cell but he could be brought back by not only Earth's Dragonballs but Planet New Namek's set.. someone from Frieza's race probably Cooler or an offspring decided enough was enough and sometime between the end of Goku's era when his natural lifespan finally ran out and our era... planet new namek was destroyed and our set of dragonballs were lost, forever turned into unusable stone orbs. and there doesn't exist a solitary person who could forge a new set.... Senzu Beans were lost to us too, im not sure why. Ally... what im saying is.. all the death that we've seen ever since we formed the new Z-Warriors it... can't be undone.

Ally just stands there she looks up at Trevor, a foot or so shorter than he is his face is serious.

Trevor: thats why i pushed you today. do you understand?

Ally: I do, dont worry ill not complain anymore im gonna work harder!

Trevor: heh, good.

Mickie: alright you guys ready?

Trevor: yeah lets go.

Location
Mario and Luigi's House. Mushroom World.

9/9/2020

9:00a.m.

The scene pans Mario and Luigi's house. A rock verison of the Super Mario Brothers theme plays. Mario has been busy setting up their new business. He hammers a poster to the wall of the house. The poster says. Mario Brothers Plumbing and Hardware. Mario stops hammering and he looks at the poster. Luigi opens a window and he looks out. He has his night clothes on and a night hat.

Luigi: Mama mia Mario. What is it with all the noise eh?

Mario: Oh good morning Luigi. Just hanging our poster for our new business.

Luigi: New business? What new business?

Mario: Our new plumbing and hardware business.

Luigi's hat extends out as he looks shocked.

Luigi: What?! Mama mia Mario. What you starting a new buisness without talking to me first huh?

Mario: Well Luigi. Its been awhile since King Bowser has tried to kidnap Princess Toadstool and take over the Mushroom Kingdom. And let's face it. Our coin supply is starting to run dry. The Princess doesn't pay us money unless we save her. Since we haven't had to save her. That means we're gonna have to make our own coins. Besides. Its not very nice for gentlemen like us to depend on a Princess to take care of us. We got to make our own living Luigi.

Luigi: I guess your right Mario. But you could have at least talked to me first.

Mario: No time for that Luigi. We got to start collecting business. Here. Get dressed and take these posters out. Besides. I've already had a few phone calls.

Luigi: Alright alright. Mama mia.

Luigi closes the window. Mario walks in the house. Moments later Luigi walks into the room all dressed and ready.

Mario: Here. Take these posters around town. I'm sure Princess Toadstool won't mind us hanging some up. But check with her first.

Luigi: Alright alright Mario. No problem. But can I at least have some breakfast first?

Mario: Oh yeah. Sure.

Luigi walks into the kitchen. Suddenly the phone rings.

Mario: I got it Luigi.

Mario pushes a button on the phone. The sound effect of when Mario shoots a fire flower is heard. The phone is on speaker.

Mario: Mario Brothers Plumbing and Hardware. You Clog em. We clear em.

Sgt Slaughter: Mario!

Mario and Luigi look shocked.

Sgt Slaughter: You got the pipe I ordered yet?

Mario: Oh Luigi. Its that bully Sgt Slaughter.

Sgt Slaughter: I heard that.

Luigi: The pipe he ordered? Mario. What's he talking about?

Mario: Well. I kinda talked to him yesterday about...a pipe. And...well. I promised him we'd get it.

Luigi: What's he want?

Mario: He needs a small pipe.

Luigi: Mama mia Mario! We don't have any small pipes!

Mario: I know I know. That's the problem. In all the excitment of putting up posters and stuff for the new business. I kinda forgot to order supplies.

Luigi: Ohhh...oh no Mario.

Sgt Slaughter: I can hear you two talking. Listen. I placed an order for that pipe yesterday. You promised you'd have it today. I'm on my way in to pick it up right now. I'm making my way across the Mushroom Bridge now.

Mario smiles.

Mario: Oh well that gives us some time. The traffic is always bad this time of the day up there.

Sgt Slaughter: Not for me.

Mario and Luigi look surprised.

Mario and Luigi: Huh?

Sgt Slaughter: It helps when you have a 2 ton tank bozo's!

The sounds of a tank running and crushing stuff is heard. Mario pushes the button and the fire flower sound effect is heard.

Luigi: Mama mia Mario! He'll be here any minute! What are we gonna do?

Mario: Okay. Okay...Um. You keep him busy while I run into town and buy a small pipe.

Luigi: Alright...Hey wait a minute. Last time I had to deal with Sgt Slaughter I had to go through basic training. Its your turn this time.

Mario: Alright. I'll go into town and buy the small pipe while you stay here and keep Sgt Slaughter busy.

Luigi crosses his arms as he looks proud of himself.

Luigi: Now that's different.

Mario runs out the door. Luigi looks surprised.

Luigi: Hey wait!

Luigi rubs his hand over his face.

Luigi: Oh boy.

Location
The Grasslands. Mushroom World.

9/9/2020

1:00p.m.

Mickie and her team have been walking for hours. The team follows Mickie as they walk through a forest and up a small hill.

Katie: Can we stop for lunch yet? I'm hungry.

Mickie: Let's see what's over this hill.

Katie: Aw come on.

Victoria: Yeah. I'm hungry.

Trevor: We have been walking for awhile Mickie. Even I'm getting hungry.

Mickie: I know I know. Let's see what's over this hill top.

They keep walking. Mickie leans into Trevor.

Mickie: Notice anything about Ally?

Trevor looks a bit confused as he looks at Mickie then he looks back at Ally. Ally follows them. Trevor looks back at Mickie.

Trevor: She looks fine to me.

Mickie: She hasn't said a word about stopping...resting. Eating. She's just pushing forward.

Trevor looks back at Ally again then back at Mickie.

Trevor: Well...Actually I didn't really notice that.

Mickie: She's a very determined young lady. She's gonna be a member of the team before this adventure is over.

Trevor: She's got alot of power.

Mickie: And with the right attitude...there's no limit to what she can do.

Trevor: So who's gonna train her tomorrow morning?

Mickie: Katie.

Trevor: Alright. I think I already got my lesson planned out for next time we train.

Mickie: Good. So do I.

Mickie and the team reach the top of the hill. They stop and they look out over the forest and the grass fields.

Ally: Wow...Beautiful.

Katie: Okay. There's no towns or anything near by. Just forest and fields. Can we stop for lunch now?

Mickie: Sure. Let's just find us a good spot to stop and rest for a bit. Look there.

Mickie points out a spot that's covered by some trees. There's a small pond there too. Big enough and deep enough to take a swim.

Mickie: Let's go there and rest for a bit.

The team follows Mickie to the area.

Mickie: Ahhh. Feel that? Feels good.

A soft wind blows.

Victoria: Oh yeah. It feels so much better here.

Mickie pulls some food from her back pack and they begin to pass it around. Everyone eats and they take the time to relax. Ally walks over to the pond. She takes her shoes off and she puts her barefeet in the water. Katie, Victoria and Trevor are playing a friendly game. Mickie walks over to Ally. Ally looks upset as she sits there. Like she has alot on her mind.

Mickie: Care if I join you?

Ally looks at Mickie.

Ally: Please be my guest.

Mickie takes her boots off and she sits next to Ally and she puts her barefeet in the water as well. Ally begins to kick her feet around. She looks very upset.

Mickie: So...You look upset...anything wrong?

Ally: No...No...Well...Yes.

Mickie: What's up? Maybe I can help.

Ally looks a bit confused as she looks at Mickie.

Mickie: What? Something on my face?

Mickie begins to wipe her mouth and face.

Ally: No no. Its just that...No one's ever tried to be my friend before. You...actually seem...to care about me.

Mickie smiles.

Mickie: That's just the type of lady I've become. I used to be a careless girl. Full of hate and rage. But...well. With God's help I've managed to turn my life around.

Ally: Wow. Its hard to believe you used to be mean.

Mickie: I used to be one of the worst...Just ask the others.

Ally: Whoa.

Mickie: So what's up? You can talk to me.

Ally looks out at the pond. She then looks down at Mickie's feet then her own feet. Ally begins to kick her feet around a bit. It seems to draw some Cheep Cheeps as they start to swim around the area. Ally then looks at Mickie.

Ally: Can I ask you something personal?

Mickie: Sure.

Ally: If a couple don't want a baby...why would they have one?

Mickie looks out at the pond. She looks down in the water and she watches the Cheep Cheeps swim around. She looks down at her own feet for a moment before looking back at Ally.

Mickie: Well sweetie. That's...hard to say. I can honestly say that...when a man and a woman are in love with each other...they want to make love together.

Ally: Yeah yeah. I get that and I understand that but...isn't there ways to express their love that they don't have a baby?

Mickie: Well yeah. God created sex for pleasure. Its something that only a married couple should do together. Its not something just anyone should do. But we all have sexual emotions and feelings. Sometimes their hard to control. But when a man and woman are in love...sometimes its easy to get lost in the passion. Sometimes couple's have babies and...well. They don't mean too.

Ally: Oh...I kinda figured that.

Mickie: How do you know your parents don't want you? I mean...for all you know they could be worried about you...maybe their trying to find you.

Ally: No. My parents didn't want me. They never loved me. All I wanted was affection. But I was the one they didn't want.

Mickie: The one they didn't want?

Ally: I have an older brother and an older sister. Mom and Dad both love them...very much actually. But not me.

Mickie: How do you know?

Ally: They told me.

Mickie: What?

Ally: It wasn't long before Frost kidnapped me. I had a fight with my mother. And you know Mickie. I always knew that they treated me different. Everyone in my family did. But that night...My mom...she hit me. And she told me that she never wanted me...no one in the family did.

Mickie: Oh no.

Ally: I almost hit her back...out of pure emotion. I was mad. But...I just couldn't. But I told her...I would never call her mom again. I said the same thing about dad and my brother and sister. I told them all to go to Hell and I left. Shortly after that...Frost kidnapped me.

Ally smiles as she looks at Mickie.

Ally: And I think its the best thing that ever happened to me.

Mickie looks a bit confused.

Mickie: Really? How?

Ally: Because I met you and your family...This...this is how a family should be. You all love each other. You care for each other. You look out for each other. Your not afraid to show affection. And...well...Ah never mind.

Mickie: What? What is it?

Ally: Its...I don't really want to talk about it.

Mickie: Well. If you do...don't be shy and talk to me.

Ally: I...will.

Mickie: We've rested long enough. Its time to move.

Mickie pulls her feet out of the water and she walks around barefoot for a moment to give her feet time to dry before putting her boots back on. Ally pulls her feet from the water as well and she sits there and she looks over at Mickie and the others.

Ally: They may let me join the team...but...come on. I must be crazy. They won't let me join their family...But...I'd like to be part of it. Maybe...just maybe they will...Oh who am I kidding? Things like that just don't happen. But I need a family. I guess...I can view them as my family...even if they don't view me the same way.

Mickie sits down and she puts her boots on. Ally extends her legs out and she shakes her feet trying to shake off any water. Ally then puts her shoes back on and she stands up.

Mickie: Alright everyone. Let's get moving. We've sit here too long. Now we're gonna have to move out on the double to make it to the Inn before night fall. Let's go.

Mickie walks off. The other's follow. Ally follows them.
