I've been wanting to do something with this song for ages. I just love Bon Jovi. And this song reminds me so much of DBZ that I felt something like this needed to be done. So, there you go.
Disclaimer: Wow. I'm actually doing a disclaimer. There's a surprise. Anyways, I don't own the song, and if Dragonball Z was mine, then I wouldn't have an account on this site. sniff See what you people did! You made me sad.
I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head
I've got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind
Raditz fell away from Goku. He was unsure how they got in the air, but he fell with a painful thud. There was no doubt about it; he would soon be dead. He smirked into the green man's face. "You think my death changes anything? My two partners will come and succeed where I failed. And they're both my superiors in strength. But I must hand it to my little brother, willing to die like that."
It was Piccolo's turn to smirk. "Fool. Goku won't be dead for long. If his friends still have their dragonballs, no doubt they'll wish him back."
Raditz coughed up some blood. "I'm glad you told me. Because I've just transmitted the information to my partners in space. They'll be here in a year." His last breath was spent laughing.
When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that I'm wanted
Yeah, I'm a wanted man
I'm a colt in your stable
I'm what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can
Piccolo threw himself in front of his young pupil. No matter how little he convinced himself he cared, he just couldn't let young Gohan die. Nappa's blast hit him dead on. Death was imminent. He fell face first in the dust; tears were in his eyes.
"Gohan… Run." It was all he could say before he was gone.
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm no one's son
Call me young gun
You ask about my conscience
And I offer you my soul
You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I'll grow old
You ask me if I've known love
And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
Well, I've seen love come
And I've seen it shot down
I've seen it die in vain
The tears ran down Vegeta's cheek. It was over; he had failed. Frieza had won. But what was that? Kakarot! There was still hope.
"Don't let him win, Kakarot." He closed his eyes and was no more.
Shot down in a blaze of glory Solo
Take me now but know the truth
'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm the devil's son
Call me young gun
Cell was defeated, and the android he had vomited up was currently no threat. Trunks could now relax. Sure, Goku's death was tragic, but there were always the dragonballs…
A sharp and unbearable pain in his chest removed him from his thoughts. Almost in slow motion, he fell back, revealing his attacker to him. It was Cell. Somehow, Cell had regenerated! Trunks' last thoughts were of despair.
Each night I go to bed
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain't looking for forgiveness
But before I'm six foot deep
Lord, I got to ask a favor
And hope you'll understand
'Cause I've lived life to the fullest
Let this boy die like a man
Staring down a bullet
Let me make my final stand
Piccolo had gone with his son and friend. It saddened him that he was forced to knock them out, but he preferred that they not witness this. He would make that fat, pink freak pay.
He rose into the air, his thoughts centered on Bulma and Trunks. How he'd never see Trunks grow up. How he never told Bulma he loved her. Bulma, Trunks, this is for you.
He was now surrounded by huge ball of yellow energy. This was it, his final stand.
Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
And I'm no one's son
Call me young gun
I'm a young gun
