A special thanks to my Beta Kaitlyn! You rock!
Chapter One
I wake up and open my eyes, but I can't see anything. Everything is blurry and dark! I hear birds cheeping, and the wind tussling the trees. What's wrong with me...? I can't remember what happened. Was I in an accident or something...?
"Gohan?" I hear my mother call. She was close, but I couldn't see her.
"Mom, what's going on? Why can't I see anything?" I ask her.
I feel her hand brush across my cheek. "Honey, you were fighting Cell, remember? The blast from your Kameha Wave created a huge wave of light. It was so bad that it blinded you."
My mouth opens to speak, but no words come out. I remember now...I was fighting Cell.
"Gohan, you're weak just like your father." Cell smirks. A deep growl escapes my lips as I glare at him heavily. My left arm is broke, and have little to no power left. I look back at my friends... Trunks is dead, Vegeta is knocked out, and the others look horrible. I don't know what to do. I can hear Cell's laughter. I want to shoot him...
"Gohan! You have to pull yourself together!" I hear my father tell me. I look around, hoping to see him.
"Father? I don't understand... Where are you?" I ask. Maybe, I've finally gone insane.
"I'm in otherworld," he responds. "You must defeat Cell, no matter what the cause."
I look down and shut my eyes. "I-I can't. I have no power left..."
"If you don't beat him, he's gonna kill everyone! Your mother, grandfather, Bulma, Piccolo- Everyone! You don't want that to happen, do you?!" his voice rises.
"No but..."
"No buts! We are going to defeat him together. Ready?"
I open my eyes and powered up to my limit. "Yeah!"
"Are you saying a little prayer, Gohan?" Cell smirks.
I push all the power to right arm. "Kamehameha!"
The beam is big and bright, and it's heading towards Cell. He powers his own, and it clashes against mine. It's very powerful compared to mine...
"Come on, Son." Father tells me. I push more power into it, and I feel it coming. "Now!"
That does it. A huge wave of power flows out. Cell burns to ashes, but the light is too bright. My eyes burn and it almost kills me. The blast stops, and I shut my eyelids and fall back. Gripping my eyelids, I scream in pain. I feel someone pick me up before the pain fades away, and I drift to sleep.
"Gohan?" my mom speaks, gaining my attention.
"So... I'm stuck like this forever?" I inquire.
"I'm afraid so. Dende said since blindness is natural cause he couldn't heal it or use the Dragon Balls. Your father contacted us, and said he didn't want to return to earth."
"What? Why?" I question in shock. Why didn't he want to come back? Didn't he love us at all?!
"He said the earth would be safer if he remained dead..." she explains sadly. Even though I can't see her, I know my mom has tears in her eyes.
I look for her energy and move to her. I wrap my arms around her in a hug. "It's gonna be alright. You still have me."
She sniffs lightly. "I know, but I don't only have you; two more coming."
I knit my eyebrows together. "What do you-" I stop when I feel two power levels emitting from her stomach. It's strange, cause I haven't felt them before. They were very small, but they were there. "Mom, you're having twins...?"
"Yep. You're gonna be a big brother!" she announces. I smile, I have always wanted little sibling or siblings to play with. My smile fades when I realize something... I won't be able to see them at all.
"Gohan, are you alright? I mean with all that is happening?"
I can hear the sympathy in her voice when she asks me. She must be hurting as bad as me... That I won't be able to see her again or ever see my little brother and sister...
"I'm fine." My voice cracks slightly. "I just got to accept it."
"Alright," she sounds unsure. "Bulma wanted us to come over whenever you woke up. Would you like to go?"
I nodded my head. It would be good to hear everyone again...
"Okay. I'll come to get you in a hour." Mother tells me. I hear her footsteps go to the other side of the room. The door creaks softly. "Do you need any help?"
"I'm good, Mom. I see you in a bit." I give a her a small smile. The door shuts, and I shift myself on my bed so that I can stand.
Once I'm up, I try walking to my bathroom. It's directly across from my bed so I finding it should be easy... How wrong I could be. I trip and tumble over things as make my way to the room. I finally make it, and turn on the shower. That was a little easier than walking to the room.
After the hot shower, I step out and use my ki the dry off. Carefully, I walk back over to my bed, and feel for my clothes resting on it. I placed them on there along with my black shoes. I hear my door open, and I turn my head to the sound. "Mom?"
"Yep. Ready to go?"
"I guess..." she places something over my eyes, and I poke at them. "What are these?"
"Glasses. Your eyes aren't dark brown anymore, but a shade of gray. So people won't notice I bought you these." She informed before grabbing my hands and leading me out the room.
Cautiously, she helps me down the stairs, and out the door. I feel the warm air against my body when I stand still for a second.
"Nimbus!" I call. I can hear the cloud buzzing toward me.
Mom helps as I jump on, and she sits behind me. The cloud zooms off. I hear the wind as we fly in the sky. An hour passes by, and Nimbus stops.
"Bulma!" Mom yells. I sense her coming out, and my mother hops off Nimbus. I hop off too, and the cloud zooms off again. I feel Bulma and her baby boy, Trunks, come out to us.
"Hello, Bulma." I greet her, and she hugs me.
"Hey, Gohan. Congrats on beating Cell. You're just like your old man," she says.
I put a hand behind my head and grin at her. Her words make me feel somewhat proud of myself.
"Come on in. Everyone is here to see you." Bulma tells me. I follow the energy signals in the house to find where the living room is. Maybe hearing everyone will take the attention away from me losing my sight...
