"I would love to but I have to.........uh..........clean my room" Goten said.

"You are such a liar."

"What do you mean in saying ';I am liar'?"

" You just got done cleaning room. Your mom wanted you to go to the grocery store to pick up some stuff an
hour ago and you said that you were cleaning your room."

"Oh.....yeah. Hey how did you know?"

"My mom sent me over to get some flour for dinner. I was sitting in the kitchen the whole time. You were
whining like a little baby."

"Yeah, well I wasn’t cleaning but know I am going to."

"We were going to go see a movie though, remember?"

" I can get there quickly. But I still won't take you flying."

"I wonder how fast I could get your whining like a baby spread around the school" Goten glared at her.
"OPPS!!!! Did I say that aloud."

"I don't care. I still won't."

"Fine. Can I use your phone then?"

"No! I don't want you to touch anything that is in my house." Goten said sarcastically.

"Of course you may use the phone, Marron. Come on in." Goku said out of the kitchen window.

"Thank you." She said directing it toward Goku. Then she turned around and rolled her eyes at Goten.

"What brings you around here?" he asked her once she was inside.

"Well, I was supposed to meet Bra and Trunks here, then the 3 of us and Goten were all going to go to the
movies. As you can see though, they aren't here. Then I asked your son if he would fly me over to
their house then the 4 of us would leave from their house but 'he doesn't want to so I was going call them and tell them to meet us in at the movies. Do you mind?" she asked pointing to the phone.

"No. Go ahead." he told her pulling something out of the fridge and placing it on the counter.

She picked it up and dialed Bra's number then placed it next to her ear and listened to it ring 3 times before someone picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Hi. Is Bra there?"

"Why would you care?" Trunks asked.

"Trunks! You were supposed to be at Goten's house with Bra."

"Why?" he asked me like a little kinder-gardener.

" You, your sister, me and Goten were all supposed to go to the movies together."

"What movie?" he badgered.

" Beyond the Blades End."

"Ok, here's Bra." he said handing the phone over to his little sister.

"Gee, thanks." Marron said into dead space.

" Your Welcome but for what?" Bra's cheery voice asked.

"You brother just had me explain everything to him and he didn't even listen."

"He did? Anyway, sorry we aren't over there. Trunks is getting yelled at for leaving his socks all over
the house. We'll be there soon though. What are you wearing?"

"Blue stripped shirt, khaki shorts, and my doc sandals. Why?"

"Wow. Me too! Hey Great minds think alike."

"Yeah. Well how about you meet us over at the theater. I may be a little late. Buy the tickets and food. Let the
guys do what ever, just wait for me please."

"I';ll do even better. I';ll make the guys wait for you too!"

"Thanks. Well see then. Bye."

"Bye." she then we hung up.

Marron turned around to see Goku and Goten talking.

"Deal?" Goku asked.

"Deal!" Goten said to his father.

"What's going on?" she asked them.

"Well, Goten will fly to the movies and I'll increase his allowance by $10 for a month."

"Really?" she asked them.

"Yeah. Come on Marron, lets go. May I have my allowance for the week,dad?"

"Sure." Goku says handing Goten $30. Then the 2 of us walked toward the door. Marron stopped, turned
around, ran back and gave Goku a kiss on the cheek.

"What was that for?" he asked quizzically.

"For convincing Goten to fly me there and for letting me use the phone."

"Anytime." he smiled at her.

She turned around and skipped out the door and went straight to Goten.

"Ready?" he asked her grabbing her around the waist.

"Clearance and ready for take-off, captain." she said smiling. He smiled back at her. Then he gently lifted the 2
of them off the ground and took off.

"You know that you can go faster than this right?"

"It's alright with you?"

"Yeah. I can't fly, oddly enough. The only way I do is with the help of others." she paused. "Sorry I
have to do this to you. I could walk to more than half the places that I am flown but there is a certain freedom
in the sky, you know what I mean?"

"Yeah. I understand and it is really no problem. I really don't mind. It's kinda fun taking you
around. You have a great sense of humor and it gives me someone to talk to. It gets kinda boring flying around
by yourself."

"I wouldn't know. I am always up here with some one else." she told him, " And if you are ever bored come over to my house. We'll find something to do." she told him.

He nodded his response and by this time we were at the theater.

"They aren't here yet, naturally." she said.

He laughed under his breath. "We'll just wait up here for a couple of minutes." he said letting go of her.

"AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" was all Marron could get out as she fell toward the Earth. Someone's arms
caught her before she hit the ground.

"He needs to be more careful." the caring, familiar voice told her. She looked up.

"Gohan!!!!!" She squealed joyously.

"Nice to see you too." he said carefully setting me on the ground. Goten landed roughly and ran to the ticket
line.

"I'll take care of things here." she told him, "Thanks."

"No problem." he said as he left.

She walked over to Goten and put her arm around his waist.

"What's wrong. Don't feel bad. Everyone always forgets that I can't fly. I am always
left behind. It happens quite often."

" Yeah, but you could have died."

"It's alright. I forgive you." She looked up at him. "You really are a sweetheart." she said.

"Guess I am not sweet enough for a kiss though, huh?"

She gave him a little peck on the cheek. "Sure you are."

"You 2 are the cutest couple!!!!!" 2 voices from behind us squealed. Slowly she turned around, afraid of who
it might of been. Her body relaxed when she saw who it was.

"We watched the whole thing from the air." Bra told us.

"You think you can hold on to this one?" Trunks asked.

"We aren't going out. My dad is paying me to fly her." Goten said defending himself.

"Sure and you dropping her even though you knew she couldn't fly was part of the deal, too?"

Trunks teased.

Goten got mad and got ready to fight. Trunks got ready to defend himself.

"Stop you two. It's only a little teasing. That never hurt anyone." Bra and Marron said getting in-between the two.

"Come on. You're up." Bra said lightly pushing Goten forward.

He bought two tickets and handed one to Marron.

"I had money." she told him stunned.

"No. This is my treat." he whispered.

"Alright." she said shrugging. Then she turned to her friend who smiled and winked at her. They waited for
the two siblings then they all went inside together and got in the concession line. Bra and Marron told the guys
what they wanted then they went to use the pay phone.

Marron picked up the receiver, put in the money and dialed the number then waited for someone to pick up.

"Hello?"

"Hi daddy. I'm at the movies with Bra, Goten, and Trunks..."

"Hi Mr. Krillin!!!!!!" Bra screamed in her friends ear."

"Tell her I say ';hi'. What are you going to see?"

"He says 'hi'," Marron told Bra, " We're gunna see 'Beyond the Blades End.' After it's over we were going to get something to eat. Okay"

"Wow! Sounds good. Tell me what you rate it. And that is just fine."

*****

"Who do she's talking to?" Goten asked Trunks curiously.

"Her boyfriend. I DON'T KNOW. DO I LOOK LIKE A TELEPHONE OPERATOR?!" Trunks said
paying for the food. "Why?"

"Just wondering."

"You like her, don't you?!" Trunks asked him.

"As a friend, yes. Any other way, NO!!!"

*****

"Well got to go. The guys got the food. Luv ya dad."

"So do I!" Bra squealed in to the receiver.

"Love both of you. Bye." he told them then he hung up.

"Let's go get the food and sit with them. First one to the guys get married first." Bra exclaimed just
picking something for one of them to win.

"Gee, I wonder who will win." Marron said as she started running toward the guys.

"Hey! You cheater!!!" Bra yelled chasing after her friend.

Marron stopped right in between Goten and Trunks. "I WIN!!! I WIN!!"she chanted victoriously.

"You act so immature." Goten sneered. Trunks nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, well at least I know how to have fun." she retorted grabbing her food and following her turquoise
haired friend into the dimming theater. They sat in the middle of the seating area and watched as the two guys
walked by.

" I wonder what crawled up their butts and died?" Bra questioned.

" I don't know but know I wish I had gotten a drink." she said. She got up even though the movie had begun and walked out of the theater and to the concession stand.

" May I help you?" the man behind the counter asked me.

" Yes. One small coke please."

" That'll be $3.50" he told me.

She reached into her pocket and dug out the money to pay for it, but someone already did. She looked up to
see the tall, blonde haired, blue eyed, jock from school.

" What ';cha seein?" he asked.

" 'Beyond the Blades End'. Why?"

"Really?! Me too! Hey, maybe we can sit together."

"Yeah, maybe. Will you hold one for a second. I need to give my friend her coke."

"Sure." he said waiting out by the door

Marron ran into the theater.

"Bra! You've got to help me."

*****

" I wonder what is buggin' Marron?" Goten said.

"Why?" his friend asked him.

"She just ran in here freaked out."

"How could you see her face? It is pitch black in here."

" There is just enough light to see her from that last scene"

Trunks rolled his eyes "What ever." he mumbled

*****

"No way! Cody can't be here?"

"But he is! You know I don't like him."

"You've gotta be kidding. He's really here?"

" You're not listening to me!" she whined.

"Alright. I'll go get they butt heads. You keep him outside."

"OK." she said turning around and left her in the dark theater.

*****

"Here comes you sister." Goten said almost whispering.

"Great." Trunks muttered.

"You guys," Bra said. "Cody's outside bugging Marron and she can't stand him."

" Alright.... I guess I'll take care of this."

"So will I." Goten said standing up.

"You sure?"

"What do you mean? I have been waiting all year for the chance to kick this guys butt without getting in
trouble by Mrs. Kinlet."

"Good point"

Then the two stormed out of the theater with Bra trailing behind them.

*****

"Get off of me!" Marron screamed. All the people walking around ignored her.

"Come on. Just say that you'll go out with me and I' ll leave you alone."

"Never!!"

"Leave her alone." Goten and Trunks said together.

"Stay out of this. I don't wanna have to hurt you."

" Oh Please!" Goten said.

" You wouldn't lay a hand on me." Cody said not taking his eyes off the frightened blonde.

"You wanna bet?!" Goten said pulling Cody's shoulder back.

Cody turned around only to be punched across the face.

"What was that for?" He asked stunned.

"She asked you to leave her alone. Not only that, but so did we and you didn't."

"You shouldn't have gotten into this. It wasn't your problem, but now it is."

"It was my problem from the beginning because you're messing with my girlfriend." He stated.

"You must be mistaken. She has a good lookin' boyfriend which already knocks you 2 out of the
ranking. Not only that, but he is me." Cody said.

"I have a better way to solve this. How about you ask her who is her boyfriend." Bra said trying stop it before
blood was shed.

Cody and Goten turned to Marron.

"Who is it?" Trunks asked hoping there would still be a fight.

She carefully thought it over. "Goten is my boyfriend. Cody, I have been trying to get rid of you for ever and
you won't leave me alone. Make this easy on everyone and just leave." She said pointing toward the
door.

"Not after I paid to see blood shed." he said then he sucker punched Goten. Trunks came to the rescue while
Goten tried to realize what had just happened then he got back in. Trunks and Goten were moving so fast all
anyone could see was Cody getting more and more beat up and him punching at the air.

"Isn't it romantic that 2 guys are fighting over you?" Bra sighed.

She glared at her friend.

"Well, I thought it was." She shrugged.

"STOP!!!!! That is more than enough. He gets the point." Marron screamed at the top of her lungs. Goten and
Trunks stopped in half punch, and a piece of Trunks' bangs fell into eyes.

"Are you sure?" Goten asked. He was really getting into it.

She nodded.

The guys stopped and walked over to the girls.

"Are you alright?" Marron asked Goten sympathetically.

"Now I am." he said putting his arm around her. It suddenly got cold so she snuggled closer to him.

"That's the 2 guys." a small kid with big glasses said pointing at the guys. "They beat up that other
guy."

The manager walked up to us. "I'm going to have to ask you to leave." he said.

"Oh darn." Bra snorted sarcastically then they walked out laughing.

" Hey, thanks for saving my butt back there." Marron told her friends.

"Why didn't you tell us about him earlier. We could have taken care of him along time ago."

Trunks asked.

"Well, I thought that he would eventually leave me alone, but he never did."

"Can we go find something to eat?"Goten asked.

"Yeah. I'm starved." Trunks said.

"When aren't you 2 hungry?" Bra asked.

They shrugged.

Goten picked Marron up and took off.

"Where are we going?" she asked.

"The mall to eat then to shop." he answered.

"Crank it up then buddy!" she cheered. The 2 of them race ahead of the others.

"Hey!!! Wait up!!" Bra called after them then she and Trunks sped up.

Marron and Goten arrived before the others. He carefully placed her on the ground. She looked up at Goten.
His cheek was pink and swollen.

"That doesn't hurt?!" she asked.

"Well it stings alittle, but I';ll be ok. I am a BIG BOY now." he said then he smiled a cheesy smile.

Marron laughed at him as did Trunks and Bra, only for a different reason.

Together they walked into the food court. Bra and Marron ordered a simple salad. Goten and Trunks on the
other came away with at least 2 trays of food. Bra and Marron stood away from the table deciding something.

"Should we risk sitting with them?" Marron asked Bra.

"We have to watch over them and you know that. If one of them was choking on something the other would
think that he was just joking until hi fell on the floor, blue, and no longer breathed."

"True." she said. "Sad, but true."

They walked over to the table.

"You are going to sit with us? I feel so privileged." Trunks gasped. Bra slapped he brother so hard across the
chest he lost his breath and gasped for air.

Goten smiled and cleared a spot for them.

"Thank you." they told Goten.

"No problem." he told them.

"Fine! Take all the girls." Trunks said acting like he would cry. Hundreds of girls began to swarm around the
table.

"Go away. They are taken." Bra and Marron shooed the girls away.

Slowly the girls left, but only after 'Accidently' dropping their numbers on the ground.

"Now we're even."Goten smiled at his blonde girlfriend.

*****

"Let's drop shopping and go to the arcade." Goten pled.

"Oh....alright." Marron said falling for his puppy-dog eyes. She pulled her friend in with her.
