AUTHOR'S NOTE: This takes place 6 months after the Cell Games. Goku is alive and Gohan is a full-blooded Saiyan. He can turn Super Saiyan 4.
"My, my, you Saiyans and Namekians are so stupid. You think you can beat me? I'd like to see you try." Zabre crackled. She looked about 18, tall and slender. Her icy blue eyes and hair matched her steely stare she was giving the Z warriors. Her clothes were sleek black pants, topped with a blood red tank top, and combat boots.
Her lips were a dark red, her eyes giving a piercing stare. She had high cheekbones. Black eyes with red tints in both of them, sent shivers down the Z warriors' spine.
"How do you know we're not humans?" Goku asked her angrily. "Well, first of all, Nameks are green. Second, two of you have tails identical to a Saiyan's. Third, three of you have spiky like Saiyans. Now, I am here to slaughter every single person and alien that opposes me. Then I will enslave every human on this pathetic planet."
"No, you won't!" Gohan burst into Super Saiyan 4 as did Goku, and charged at Zabre. Goku closely followed him. "Fools!" Black energy beams went flying toward them. Gohan and Goku were hurled to the ground. They stood up shakily. "It's going to be very hard to beat me." Standing behind Zabre, crackling, were at least 500 demons.
They were black with red lynx ears and claws. Their teeth were stained with yellow juice. "Oh, and don't let them bite you. Their bite is poisonous. Most people can't survive against it." That explained the yellow stains on their teeth.
"Let them demonstrate their power!" Zabre motioned at one of the demons. It stepped forward eagerly. "Well, who's going to fight it?" Zabre shifted her gaze from Goku to Gohan, then back to Goku. "I will." Gohan stepped forward calmly.
Gohan phased out as did the demon. BOOM! Overhead their hits were thundering through the desert. CRASH! A red blur of color went flying into the rocky soil. As the dust cleared, Gohan stood up on his feet. "See? I told you couldn't win." Zabre laughed.
Gohan fired a blast at the demon, but it blocked it and elbowed Gohan in the face. Gohan punched the demon, but it caught his fist and twisted his arm behind him. Gohan was thrown into a rock.
Gohan stood up, glaring at Zabre who was laughing her head off at him and his struggles. Gohan looked for the demon, but could not find it because of his speed.
"Gohan! Behind you!" Goku screamed at Gohan. Gohan turned around, but was a second too late. He fell flat on his face. He dropped out of Super Saiyan 4. A demon was biting him on his shoulder. Gohan managed to knock it off of him, before collapsing back onto his stomach.
"Never let your guard down." Zabre turned to her demons, leaving Gohan lying on the ground, grasping his shoulder tightly. "There is another little whelp Saiyan to the east of here. Find him and kill him." Zabre turned back to Gohan.
Gohan's eyes widened as shock and realization hit him. "Goten!" Gohan managed to croak out. The poison was already taking affect. Gohan struggled to his feet and blasted off to Goten. Despite the painful thudding of his heart and his pounding head, Gohan increased his speed.
Piccolo followed him. Up ahead, Gohan's vision was getting blurry. "Damn it!" Gohan cursed out loud. He shook his head in an effort to clear his vision. He felt so lightheaded. As he neared the Son house, he had trouble finding it from his eyesight. His chest was starting to heave at the effort of breathing. Every time he moved, pain shook him.
Sensing 2 demons behind him, Gohan found Goten asleep in his crib. Not wanting to take a chance at Goten waking up and crying, Gohan knocked him out. As Gohan walked to the doorway, he swayed on his feet, objects in front of him doubling up.
Shaking his head to clear his sight, he began to feel numb. 'The poison must be taking affect!' he thought. "Man, how am I going to get Goten out alive?" Gohan stumbled out the door, and nearly fell. "Kid?" Piccolo landed beside Gohan, who was vomiting maroon blood on the ground. Goten lay next to him.
"Pi-piccolo, take…Goten." Gohan had a hard time talking, as he lips were thick and numb. Gohan wheezed again and brought up blood. "But-." Gohan looked up at Piccolo. Gohan coughed again; blood speckled his lips. Gohan continued to wheeze.
'Please Piccolo! If you take Goten and they don't find him then they won't know he's alive.' Gohan sent this message telepathically; Gohan stared pleadingly at Piccolo. Piccolo's look held unwavering for a few moments, before he scooped up Goten and blasted off.
The demons landed next to Gohan and picked him up by his gi collar. They each took turns punching him in the stomach. Blood flowed from his mouth as they landed several hits. "This isn't any fun!" The demons continued mocking Gohan.
"If you're not going to play then we will, you wimp!" "Shut up you bastards!" Gohan growled out angrily. Both demons scowled and brought both fists into Gohan's head. He landed a few feet away.
Gohan went limp, nearly succumbing to the poison and his injuries, his breathing nearly ceasing. "Well, that was no fun! Oh well, now you're going to die. Well, say goodbye!" The demons flew up and fired two beams toward the house. BOOM! The explosion ripped through the forest area as the demons flew off laughing.
Piccolo landed outside a cave and walked in. The other Z warriors were there. "Hey, Piccolo's back with Goten." Krillin got up and took Goten. Looking around, he asked, "Piccolo, where's Gohan?"
Piccolo growled in his throat and answered gruffly, "He's dead." "What?!" Goku shot up to his feet. Goku looked at Piccolo and swayed on his feet. Piccolo stared at him sadly, "The poison was already starting to kill him. He told me to take Goten."
"No. Gohan." Goku turned around to face the others, "Tomorrow we are fighting!" Goku turned to Krillin, when a small, injured power level starting rising. "That's…Gohan!" Goku and Piccolo stared at each other.
"Piccolo, you're going with me, understand?" Goku turned to the others, "Stay here." Without another word Goku and Piccolo flew off.
Gohan lay under pieces of rock and wood. Something warm and sticky was covering part of his face. His blood. He couldn't feel anything below his waist either. Turning over, with difficulty, he moved some of the rubble off of him.
"I guess the poison wore off." Looking at his hands to assess his injuries, he discovered he hadn't broken anything. He had a few deep gashes here and there, but he was fine. That was until he looked at his torso.
A tree limb, soaked in his blood, protruded from his right chest area. It was about half the size of a bottle. Luckily it only went in a quarter of an inch. Struggling to his feet, as he was beginning to get feeling back in them, he fell on his side. His injuries and blood loss had taken a toll on him.
Luckily he felt two familiar kis headed his way. He signed in relief; his Dad and Piccolo were coming. A few minutes later, he heard footsteps above him. "Gohan?" Goku was anxious. "Dad?" Goku let out his breath.
Gohan was still alive. Gingerly he proceeded to lift Gohan up into his arms, but stopped when he saw the tree limb. Goku glanced at Piccolo, before fixing his stare back at Gohan. "Gohan, this may hurt, but I have to pull this out." Gohan merely nodded; Goku grabbed the limb and yanked. Gohan filched and bit his lip to prevent from crying out in pain.
"Okay. It's gone." Yanking off a piece of his cape, Piccolo applied pressure to Gohan's wound. Goku shifted Gohan in his arms, and filched slightly at Gohan's pain contorted face.
Taking flight Goku and Piccolo picked up their speed toward the cave. "Goku!" Krillin ran out to meet them. "You got Gohan?" Gohan moaned to answer his question, and Krillin shifted his gaze to Gohan.
"Krillin he needs a Senzu Bean!" Goku nodded toward Gohan. Krillin picked at his pocket and pulled out a bean. Goku immediately grabbed it and popped the bean into Gohan's mouth. Gohan's half-opened eyes opened up fully.
"Gohan! Hey how did you manage to stay alive?" Krillin asked him. "Luck, I guess." Gohan was too tired and… Just then, a huge rumble echoed through the cave. Everybody looked at Gohan. "What?! I'm hungry!" Gohan gave everybody a look that said I'm-hungry-so-deal-with-it!
Krillin laughed and handed Gohan a bowl of rice. Gohan immediately started chowing down. Within seconds Gohan had finished his bowl of rice and started on Goku's. "Hey!" Goku snatched the bowl back from Gohan; receiving a glare from Gohan.
"Okay! Everybody to bed! We have to fight tomorrow!" Krillin lay down next to Vegeta, much to his displeasure. Goku and Gohan laid near the foot of the cave. Piccolo was a few feet away, mediating.
