Hybrid Horror
I don't own these characters, I'm just borrowing them.
Hybrids by nature are unstable,. When it's between a naturally aggressive race and a race prone to mental illness it's even more so.
Gohan
Warnings: Death and suicide.
It was a happy day in the Son household. Everyone was squeezed into the limited space of the house, but no one minded this. It was a good day, and not one to be grumbled at, except by Vegeta, who had been taken from his training because Bulma had cut the power to the GR, and Piccolo because he hated crowds and was only there for Gohans sake. The focus of all this happiness was currently in the arms of her uncle.
"She smiled at me!" Goten exclaimed excitedly.
"She's only a week old, she too young to smile." Videl said. Pan gurgled in response. There was spattering of laughter. Gohan smiled, but only with his lips. He watched Pan unable to shake the feeling of uneasiness he'd felt ever since she was born. It had been a very traumatic birth. She had been born with the umbilical cord round her neck and they were only just able to revive her. But Gohan wasn't so sure that was a good thing. He hadn't done anything to help the doctors, the reason for this was that he couldn't take his eyes off her. She had no tail, it wasn't that it was stunted or deformed, it just wasn't there. That had been the moment he went cold to her. She couldn't be his daughter, she wasn't saiyan.
Bulma had said that because she was only a quarter saiyan, it meant that the genes for the tail weren't strong enough to form one. Everyone seemed to accept that explanation. But not Gohan he couldn't ignore the voice in his head that said that she wasn't his, she was just an impostor, that Videl had cheated on him. As the week progressed it just got worse, and now he was finding it hard to be in the same room as either of them. It was taking everything he had to keep up the pretension that everything was fine.
Then after Pan started to cry, Gohans face distorted into hatred, but only for a second before he flattened his face. But it was long enough for Piccolo to notice. As Pan continued to cry, Gohan made a quick exit, as soon as he was outside he took off. He flew away, he didn't care where he went, he just knew that he couldn't be anywhere near his 'family'. After sometime Gohan landed and noticed that he was in the wilderness where he'd spent a year when he was four. He stood breathing deeply, trying desperately to ignore the voice, but it was getting harder and harder. He put a hand to his head, it was beginning to hurt.
"You shouldn't be here." Piccolo said and Gohan spun round to face his old mentor. "You should be with your daughter." Gohan couldn't help the look of contempt coming onto his face. Piccolo was visibly shocked at the unfamiliar expression on Gohan face. Gohan turned away.
"Leave me alone." He said. Piccolo stepped up to Gohan and went to touch his shoulder. Gohan whipped round, and at the same time went mystic. "I said, leave me ALONE!" He shouted at him. "I have no daughter!" And with that Gohan took off, leaving a very stunned Piccolo behind.
It was well into the night when Gohan returned to the small house he shared with his wife. He could feel that everyone had left already, he was glad he really didn't want to talk to anyone at the moment. The headache was getting worse and the voice just wouldn't leave him alone. He entered the dark house and was making his way to the stairs when the light sudden turned on. Gohan turned to see a very angry Videl.
"Where have you been!?" She demanded. Gohan really didn't feel up to this.
"I needed some air." He said. Videl put her hands on her hips.
"For five hours!?" She shouted, Gohan winced as his head throbbed.
"Can we talk about this later?" He asked weakly.
"No!" She snapped. "We'll talk about this now!" Gohan turned on her, making her gasp from the look on his face, he looked like Vegeta on a bad day, it scared her a little.
"What do you what from me!?" He hissed.
"I want you to be there for your daughter." She said.
"I have no daughter!" Gohan said and turned away. Videl stared at him shocked.
"Gohan!" She snapped at him. "What in Kami's name made you think that!?" Gohan put a hand to his forehead, the headache was getting to much to bare.
"She has no tail." He said. Videl gasped.
"Bulma said that was because she's only quarter..."
"Bullshit!" Gohan said. "She has no tail, she's not saiyan, she's not mine!" He said, word for word as the voice had been saying to him.
"Gohan, I swear..." Gohan smirked, it made Videl shiver. He vanished and appeared again holding Pan. He put her on the floor. He pointed an open hand at her, and a small ball of ki appeared. He looked up at her, and Videl shivered again as she looked at her husband. It wasn't Gohan looking at her, he had gone.
"Swear on her life." He said. Videl sobbed, she didn't know what to do, he's gone insane, and there was no way out.
"Please Gohan!" She begged.
"Swear!" Videl began to cry.
"I swear...on her...life...she's...yours."
"Liar!" Gohan hissed. Gohan let go of the ki, and incinerated Pan. Videl screamed. Instantly Gohan was in front of her. "Tell me who the father was!" He said.
"I...I..."
"Tell me!" Gohan said. Videl couldn't say anything. "Tell me who you've been fucking!" Gohan said coldly. Videl looked at him and shook her head.
"No...one...your the...father!" She said.
"Liar!" He said. Videl felt intense burning in stomach then pain flooded her body. She looked down to a hole in her stomach. She looked at her husband who didn't seem to care, and her lifeless body collapsed.
As soon as Videl ki disappeared, reality suddenly hit Gohan. For a moment he was numb with shock. Please kami, Gohan thought, don't tell me I just did that! He collapsed and pulled Videl on to his lap. He began to cry.
"Videl!" He said. "Wake up Videl. Please, I'm so sorry! Just wake up!" He rocked back and forth for a while before making up his mind. He raised a hand and concentrated his ki on just one finger and pressed that against his forehead. "I'm sorry." He mumbled before letting go of the ki, to join his family.
