Title: When I'm Gone

Disclaimer: I do not own DBZ or DBGT, nor do I own any of its characters! However I do own Ame-Mizu (rain-water), she is my own original character!!!!

Couples: G/C, Goh/Vid, B/V, K/18, Got/Br, A/T (Pan and Trunk will have a 'thing' at the beginning)

Summary: What if Goku has another child, a daughter, who was taken at birth and grew up in other world with Goku after he died, but stayed there after he went back to fight Buu. What if she came back just after Goku became a super sayian 4? And what about if her soul is connected to that of the destiny of the dragonballs???

Authors Note: Some is set around the time Goten is born, but a lot of it is set when Goku is fighting baby. So Spoilers up till that point, but anything that happened up until after the baby saga doesn't happen! Oh and the song is When I'm Gone by 3 doors down

There's another world inside of me That you may never see There's secrets in this life That I can't hide Somewhere in this darkness There's a light that I can't find Maybe it's too far away... Maybe I'm just blind...

Maybe I'm just blind...

Chorus: So hold me when I'm here Love me when I'm wrong Hold me when I'm scared And love me when I'm gone Everything I am And everything you need I'll also be the one You wanted me to be I'll never let you down Even if I could I'd give up everything If only for your good So hold me when I'm here Love me when I'm wrong You can hold me when I'm scared You won't always be there So love me when I'm gone

Love me when I'm gone...

When your education x-ray Can not see under my skin I won't tell you a damn thing That I could not tell my friends Roaming through this darkness I'm alive but I'm alone Part of me is fighting this But part of me is gone

(Chorus)

Maybe I'm just blind...

(Chorus)

Love me when I'm gone...

Love me when I'm gone When I'm Gone When I'm Gone When I'm Gone


Prologue

The 4 of them in a room, it looked like a family portrait, so happy and carefree. The sun began to set and the man stood up. He looked upon his wife, who whole expression changed from happiness to complete pain,

"Goku do you really have to go back, we can stay here as a family!" Chi Chi called to him. For a moment it seemed as if Goku might consider this possibility. But then you could see in his face that he couldn't do it.

"I can't Chi Chi, you know that I can. I'm only allowed here for one day, I'm still dead. And little Ame can't stay here, if people found out that she is connected to the black star dragonballs then she could be killed. As it is, we may have stayed here for too long." He looked upon his wife who began to cry. "Think about it honey, the longer I stay here, the more likely it will be that Gohan will come in here and see me and Ame. I'm afraid that for a few years it will just have to be you, Gohan and Goten, at least until Ame-Mizu is old enough to defend herself or when king kai thinks it is time for her to come back. But I don't know how long that will be."

"I know Goku, I know, but I don't want to lose you again, and my baby is going to grow up with out me, or without our friends, She's going to be very lonely." Chi Chi told him, now completely sobbing. Goku bent over and gave her a kiss on the cheek before picking up Ame. She along with her brother Goten, began to cry.

"Shhh little one, I know that you don't want to go, but we have to leave for your safety. Say goodbye to your brother." After talking to the young baby, she became quiet, but then unexpectedly a small blue light shot out of her hand, and flew towards her brother's head. Instead of causing any harm to Goten, the light was absorbed, and he began to gurgle.

"What did she do Goku? I have never seen anything like it!" Chi Chi asked while checking her son to make sure that he was ok.

"I think she was leaving him a memory, so deep down he would never forget her ever." Goku looked over to the sun set, and the sun had almost disappeared. "It's time for us to go now honey. As soon as were gone, Gohan will come up, thinking that he delivered Goten, and he knows nothing of Ame. It must stay this way."

"I know Goku. Good bye my love." Before any thing else could be said, Goku and Ame disappeared into the night. A lone tear fell upon Chi Chi's face. She heard a knocking at the door.

"Mom?" She heard as Gohan pushed open the door. "Are you ok, I heard voices."

"Yes son, I was telling your father about Goten, I know its silly, but I think he knows."

"Of course he does mom. Dad always knows. I really miss him." He gave Chi Chi the famous son smile, "of course though he will be back wont he mom."

"I sure hope so." Chi Chi trailed of and looked out into the night.
