Chapter 3

“I wonder what could’ve eaten my sandwich?” Trunks asked himself.

“Chaaarrrbocka!”

Trunks jumped in surprise and turned around.  “What the?!!!  What on Earth is that?” he thought.
“Whaaa!  What is that?!” he cried when he saw a big figure moving through the trees and then it
started to fade away.  “Wait!  Come back here!” Trunks cried at the figure and he started to go
after it.  The figure was too fast for Trunks, he never got to it.  “Where am I?” he thought when
he stopped running.  Trunks found himself deep in the forest.  “Uh oh.  I think I’m kind of lost.”
He spun around, thinking which direction he came from.  “Okay, Trunks don’t panic.”  Trunks
was about to take a left turn from his position and then he heard a hissing sound.  “Aaaahhh!  A...
a... snake... snake...” he stammered as he looked at the snake in front of him.  “Nice snakey, nice
snakey,” he chuckled nervously, backing slowly from the snake.

The snake coiled itself, as if it was preparing to attack.  It opened its mouth, showing its long
fangs.  Venom trickled from its fangs as it showed them and hissed.  The snake jumped with its
mouth opened, ready to bite Trunks.

“Waaahhh!” Trunks cried and jumped away from his position, dodging the snake’s attack.

The snake coiled itself again to prepare for another attack.

“He he he he...  Oh no...” Trunks stammered.

The snake hissed and was about to attack Trunks but it didn’t as it sensed another creature
nearby.  Its head turned left and right to find out where the other creature was hiding.

“Chaaarrbocka!”

With that, the snake uncoiled itself and slithered away.

“What the heck just happened?” Trunks asked himself.  He sank on the ground and sighed.

“Oh,” Bulma groaned as she woke up.  She sat up on the bed and turned to Vegeta, who was still
sleeping.  “Just look at him.  He looks so peaceful when he’s sleeping,” Bulma giggled in her
mentally.  “Oh I better wake him up now,” she thought.  “Vegeta wake up.  Wake up honey!”
Bulma said, shaking her husband but Vegeta didn’t wake up.  Bulma pinched his cheek and finally
woke him up.

“Oh.  Why did you wake me up?” he groaned.

“It’s eight in the morning.  Come on, let’s go,” Bulma said, getting up from bed and changing her
clothes.  Vegeta also got up and changed from his boxers.  Bulma headed straight to the kitchen
to cook breakfast.  Vegeta headed to Trunks’ room to see if he’s still sleeping.

“Huh?  Trunks is not here?” he gasped when he saw Trunks wasn’t in his room and went to the
kitchen.  “Trunks is not in his room.  Have you seen him?” Vegeta asked Bulma as he entered the
kitchen.

“No, check the lake.  Maybe he’s there working on his sand castle,” Bulma answered while
cooking beacon and eggs.  Vegeta went outside to check on Trunks but he wasn’t there either.

“Trunks where are you?” he yelled, his voice echoing through the lake.  “Bulma, he’s not
outside,” he said as he went back to the cabin.

“What?  He’s not outside?  Where could he be then?” Bulma asked doubtly while preparing the
table and putting their breakfast on it.

“I think I better fly outside to find him,” Vegeta said worriedly.

“Let’s eat first.  And then we’ll look for him, together,” Bulma suggested as she sat down and
began to eat, Vegeta joined her.
