Investigation

The next hour or so Cynder and Becky were on their way to ask people questions about what was going on, but got no response from them, instead just were told to go back to their rooms and rest.

The girls sighed but didn't give up, and went to ask more people, but found no one wanted to talk to them, turning them away once again, and so they took a break, standing by the vending machines in the nurse's station.

"Why is it so hard to get answers?" Cynder asked, leaning against the counter. "Maybe we should try a different approach?" Becky suggested, and took a sip from her vitamin water.

"Hm, maybe. Or maybe take matters into our own hands and just go search in 21's office," Cynder said. "Cynder, you know as well as I do that we can't just go ransacking a person's personal space," Becky told her.

"Did I say that? No. I said search, not ransack, and besides, we'll be extra careful, and won't get caught. I promise." Becky sighed softly and shook her head, knowing it was no use reasoning with her, and just drank more of her water.

"Hey, by the way, how are you not affected by the way things are going?" Cynder asked her. "I am affected by it, but that doesn't mean I understand it," she said, shaking her head again. "I've pretty much lost all hope of getting out of here anyway."

"Is that why you've been cutting? Because you gave up?" "Yes, it is. But how do you know that?" "I saw the scars on your arms and I was doing the same thing for a while myself." The two girls looked at each other, one with a look of concern, the other with a sad look.

"Hey girls, how's your investigating going?" Gohan asked them when he saw them. "Not very good, we just keep getting sent away or coming up blank. It's like we're missing a major piece of the puzzle," Cynder admitted. "Well don't give up, I'm sure you'll figure out something soon," he told them.

"Maybe," she said, looking thoughtful. "And I was just thinking about taking matters into our own hands, you know, do a physical search in a certain doctor's own office?" "Cynder, you don't have permission to do that, and it's illegal anyway without a warrant. You could get sent to jail," Gohan scolded her.

"That's a risk I'm willing to take. Besides, I promise we'll be extra careful and won't get caught. Right Becky?" "Um, Cynder, maybe we should just take Gohan's advice on this. We could end up being in serious trouble, and won't be able to get ourselves out of it," Becky said.

"Ah, you worry too much. Where's the excitement in that? Besides, I'm a Super Saiyan. And I can go Rose'. So if we get in a sticky situation, I'll get us out." "Yeah but I'm a Super Saiyan too, and even that isn't enough to get out of said sticky situation," Becky pointed out.

"I'm a Super Saiyan as well, and I once was able to go Mystic, but I'm not sure if I can now," Gohan said, a bit saddened. "Don't worry about it, I can even go Super Saiyan 4," Cynder said, smiling proudly. "That's all well and good only if you know how to control it," Gohan said.

"Oh, right. I forgot about that," Cynder admitted, and the other two face-palmed. "Well, let's not sit around talking, we have a search to get on with, don't we?"

"I guess, but I'm going to go with you both in case you do get in trouble," Gohan said, and followed them to 21's office, looking and making sure she was gone, and began to search everywhere in drawers, files, anything that wasn't locked.

They then heard the clicking of heels on the hard floor after a while, and froze, hearing them come towards the office, their hearts beating fast and watched as the door swung open, revealing Android 21.

"What do you think you're doing?" She asked, looking angry as she saw them in her office. "Gohan there you are. I'm glad you caught these two troublemakers. Now I can deal with them quickly." She then grabbed both girls, and they tried to struggle out of her grip, but it was like iron.

"Stop struggling, it's no use. Take your punishments like good little girls," she told them, having Gohan hold them down while she injected them with something to make them sleep, and they tried to fight it, but darkness overpowered their vision, and the last thing they saw was 21 smirking at them, then passed out into a deep sleep.
