Chapter 16: Stuck In A Never Ending Horror

"Get these things off of me!" I holler and scream as many doctors attempt to strap me down to a hospital bed with buckles.

"Nurse! Hurry up and get the cat scan ready so we can wheel her in; This girl has clearly lost her mind." A doctor orders a nurse.

"Stop saying that!" I wiggle around some more.

"I'm on my way, Doctor!"

The nurse rushed out the room while the doctors followed her out; pushing on the bed to make it move forward.

"No! No! No!" I get frustrated, "Why won't you people believe me?! I'm telling you the truth! I'm not suppose to be in this world!"

The doctors ignored me and continued rolling me through the halls. Tired of their attitudes, I try to form enough ki to break myself free from the buckles. However, nothing was going according to plan; I couldn't get my ki to unleash.

What's going on? It feels like I have no energy in me.

"Doctor!" The same nurse yells once reaching a closed door, "For some reason, I can't get in. It's like, the door's jammed."

"Hurry and try to force it open then!"

"I'll try, but I'm gonna need some help."

In favor of helping with the door, the doctor left while I was left bounded to the hospital bed. However, the bed began to pull its own self away somehow. I attempted to look up but my eyes were covered by a blindfold.

I attempt to speak, but a hand covers my mouth.

"Shh!" The person hushes, "Do you want to stay in here forever?"

I shake my head.

"Hey-" I attempt to speak before a hand covered over my mouth.

"Shh!" The person hushes. The voice resembled that of a man, "If you wanna get out, be quiet!"

I stayed quiet. The hospital continued to roll and roll until a breeze blew across my skin and hair. The person began to unbuckle me then tossed me into what felt like a vehicle. Freed, I tie off the blind fold away and realized that I was indeed inside a car.

The person driving the car had a mask covering their face.

"Who are you?! Where are you taking me?!" I yell.

The frame of the person was that of a male; I then focus on the highway that we were now approaching. It cut through the woods that I would usually pass by to get to my home.

The male driver kept quiet. Agitated, I jump into the front seat and began reaching for the strange mask he wore.

"Hey! Stop that!" The guy yells as the car swerved recklessly through the roads.

"Tell me who you are!"

All types of drivers honked their loud horns, slammed on their brakes, swore from out their windows, swerved out the way, and threatened to bump the guy off the road.

"Tania! Stop right now!"

"No! I'm not gonna-" I then pause and layed back down on my seat. The man regained control of the vehicle.

"How do you know my name?" I ask immediately after.

"If you would've just given me a moment to get you far away from the hospital, I would've told you sooner."

"Well, are you going to tell me?"

Looking at me before sighing deeply, the masked man casually took the cover off.

His face was something I haven't seen in a long while. The emotions I felt just could not be properly described.

"Jimmy...?" I stare at who I assume is my oldest brother.

"Of course it's me." He grins before chuckling, "You're looking at me like we haven't seen eachother in months or something."

"It's really... you."

"Tania... You're kinda freaking me out with that stare. Did you already forget that we've seen eachother just this morning before you left to school."

"It's been months." I say under my breath, "N-Nine months to be exact..."

"Hm?" Jimmy looks at me.

Tears threatened to break out from their prison, but with immense self-control, I held them back. However, I couldn't control myself from nearly crushing my brother in a huge hug.

Again, Jimmy began to spiral out of control and nearly crashed into numerous vehicles.

GOHAN'S P.O.V

"Answer me! Who's your master?!"

"As I said before, we're not telling." The leader of the metal soldiers replies as I continue holding it down with my arm to the ground.

This was the last of the soldiers that I needed to take down. Apparently, all I needed to do was dismember their heads. Other than that, none would stay down.

"Last chance! Where's your master?!"

"Hmph." The soldier taunts just as a bright light illuminated its body, "Goodbye."

"Huh?" I blink a few times.

As the metal heated up immensely, I soon realized what was going on.

IT'S GONNA EXPLODE!

"I gotta get outta here!" I hop into the air, getting ready to instant transmission myself out of the area.

However, before I could even place my two fingers on my forehead, the metal soldier ignited, and just like fireworks, it detonated.

Miraculously, a hand grabbed onto my shoulder before I got caught in the explosion. A big room full of computers and other equipment became the next thing I saw.

"Whew! That was a close one. You could've been killed for sure." My father's voice passes through my ears.

I turn left and there he was: Stretching his arms and legs.

"Dad!"

"Good thing you're safe, Gohan. I'm relieved."

In front of me was no other than the scientific genius herself, Bulma Briefs. She wore a long dark green dress with no sleeves, yellow shoes with red socks, gold hoop earrings, and a gold bracelet. Her hair was cut much shorter than it was before as it is now in a bowl cut style.

"Bulma! Hi... you look different today." I speak.

"I know. It's a new trend that's going around."

"Bulma, there's something important I need to tell you." I get serious.

"Goku already told me about it." Bulma becomes serious, "He couldn't sense Tania anymore and tried finding her ki signal but had no luck tracking her."

So Dad did know what was going on...

"Father, when Tania and I got ambushed, where were you? Didn't you sense the battle at all?" I ask.

"Not at first, but eventually did when you began fighting and when Tania's signal disappeared. It took a while for me to get to you cause I was concentrated on locating Tania." Father rubbed his head.

"Gohan, what happened out there?" Bulma gives a concerned look.

"Well, to keep things short, Wisheater became strange and a number of thorns shot out from it, wrapped around Tania, busted through the window, claimed that it had a new master and that the master wanted her captured, I told Tania that I would find her, and after that, she disappeared." I sum things up.

"And just how do you plan on saving her?" Bulma crosses her arms.

"At first, I was gonna try instant transmission, but when that didn't work, I attempted to locate her using the special necklace around my neck. Supposedly, their able to track another item that was paired up with it, in this case, Tania's necklace, and lead me right to her. However, those two strategies didn't work so now I'm hoping that this last one will."

"What's your last bet, Gohan?" Dad asks.

"It has something to do with Wisheater. Bulma, I'm gonna need your help with this one." I say.

"Alright. Anything to get Tania back here safely." The blue-haired woman nodded.

TANIA'S P.O.V

A plate full of mashed potatoes and gravy awaited for me to dig into it. Instead, I stared at it and didn't bother touching or eating anything. Earlier, when Jimmy and I returned home, I went up to my room and found out literally every single object was placed where I had left it. The strangest discovery was my physical appearance when I stared into my mirror: I had my long hair back and it was in the same ponytail I had it the day I met Gohan. The clothes were too and I looked younger than I remembered.

"Why aren't you eating?" Jimmy asks as he sat across me at the dinner table.

"I'm not feeling very hungry." I reply honestly.

Everything was just so bizarre: The way that I gained consciousness in front of the entrance doors at school, the way I was taken to some mental hospital, and most importantly, the way how I'm back in the world that I grew up in.

"What's the date?" I question everyone.

"March 27th." Sinako answers before lifting his fork to his mouth.

My eyes widened.

This literally can't be the day I-

"How old am I?" I immediately ask another question.

"Fourteen." Sinako, who was sitting right next to me says while looking at me strangely, "You okay? You're kinda being weird."

Fourteen...?

"Excuse me." I sit up and stare at my hand as I reflexively opened and closed it.

This is so strange... Did I actually manage to get to the past of my world? Or maybe, time stood still when I entered into Gohan's world?

"Tania, sit back down and eat." Jimmy orders.

"No." I refuse before running towards the door, "There's something really strange going on; I need to check on something."

"Tania!" Jimmy yells.

I made it pass the door and ran throughout the streets, heading back to the place where I had blacked out originally to investigate there. Maybe there was a way or thing that connected my world with Gohan's...

The street lights and moon were thee only light source I had to get to my destination point.

I have to find out how this world can be connected to Gohan's! Maybe I can get to Mamoru somehow and give him a piece of my mind and fist!
