Gohan felt sick to his stomach. He was still not completely over the shock of what his best friend had almost done. He pushed the seat back from his desk where he does his schoolwork. He hated how everything in his life was turned upside down. His father had died in vain during the Cell Games and refused to return, his mother was a nervous wreck and only cooked and stayed in bed, and now his best friend had almost killed him and the earth. He despised his father for that, but would not openly admit it. He also had his three-year old brother to take care of. It wasn't right, but he dared not tell anyone. No, he'd do this alone.
"Daddy!" Gohan's little brother cried to him.
His little brother, Goten, calls him Daddy. Pitiful isn't it?
"What's up little guy?" Gohan said picking up the crying Goten.
"Mama's not waking up. I shook her and shook and shook her but she wouldn't wake up!" The three year old wailed.
Gohan reached out to sense his mother's ki. It was faint, but unstable. Immediately he bolted to his mother's room, nearly knocking his three year old brother down.
"Mom!" Gohan yelled.
Gohan felt his mothers pulse; it was barely existent. Her soft ivory skin, once gorgeous and vivacious, felt so frigid against his manic touch. She was dying. He had to do something or he would loose his mother. Gohan's vision was becoming distorted by the hot salty tears that filled his eyes. He didn't dare to close his eyes in fear that if he did his mother would be gone and he'd have no one else besides his little brother. No don't leave me! Please! Not you too!
Chi-Chi's ki then disappeared as if to tell Gohan goodbye. In the moment Chi-Chi died time seemed stopped around Gohan. His breaths became raspy , he couldn't move, it was like he was trapped in invincible bonds that would not let him escape this horrible nightmare. All he wanted to do was run to get away from the harsh reality that suffocated him. His body was shaking as the emotions cried to be let loose. He had...lost his mother. He had all of this power, but was powerless to save his own mother. He dropped down on his knees filling the room with a loud thud. He was about to loose control when he heard his little brother's voice.
"Daddy, is Mommy gonna be okay?"
Gohan jumped at the sound of his little brother's voice. How long had had his brother been standing there? Did he see his entire breakdown? Should he tell the three-year old the truth or lie? Would he comprehend the situation? Thoughts raced through Gohan's mind. The realization struck him like a ton of bricks. He had to be strong for his brother. Gohan wiped his tears and turned to face his little brother. He would cry later for now he had to be strong. "No...Mommy is not coming back..."
Goten buried his head into his older brother's chest crying. Gohan embraced his little brother. He could only imagine the shock that hit his little brother's system. He was only a three-year old kid growing up without a father and now without a mother. He only had his older brother to depend on now and it devastated the little guy. Gohan sat on the floor of their parents bedroom letting his little brother weep in his arms. He would not leave his little brother no matter what. It was his job now to take care of him.
"Goten." Gohan said. The three-year old looked up at his older brother with tears still streaming down his eyes. "We're going to go over to Trunks's house."
Goten usually would be jumping for joy, but he was too exhausted and depressed. He just buried his head in the chest of the one who was his daddy to him. He knew the older one looking like him was his brother, but he insisted in calling him daddy. Gohan had taken care of him for as long as he could remember, while his mommy did not even acknowledge his presence. "Okay" was the only word he could muster. He fell asleep on his daddy's chest.
Gohan carried the mini version of his father. He could never hate Goten, but each time he saw him a small surge of rage from his father. I will never forgive you father! The next time I see you I will break your jaw!
Gohan put his fingers on his head and searched for Vegeta's ki. He saw Solkarios's ki as well and became infurated. He did not want to deal with Solkarios at this time, but he had not much of a choice. He took a deep breath and teleported instantly into the Living Room where Vegeta, Bulma, Trunks, and Solkarios were all at.
Bulma and Trunks jumped at the spontaneous entrance of Gohan and his sleeping brother Goten. Vegeta was the first to speak."You better have a damned good reason for barging into my home like this, brat."
Gohan turned and faced everyone else and replied emotionlessly. "My mother is dead. I had no other option."
Bulma felt as she had been hit by a freight train. She dropped down to her knees and was shaking uncontrollably as tears began to fall from her face. She sobbed and wailed for her best-friend was gone. She felt her husband's arms around her and buried her head into his chest soaking his shirt with tears. She was thankful for her husband's heard him tell Trunks to go to bed and for Solkarios and Gohan to go back and pay their respects to their mother.
Gohan looked up at the Old Prince's eyes. "Vegeta, can me and Goten please have the Guest room?"
The older Saiyan got a little irritated, but could understand it. "Alright, I'll allow it, on one condition."
"What is that?" Gohan said weakly.
"You are going to be the bastard child's sparring partner as well as undergo my training course and do as I command." Vegeta grinned at the idea of having power over the brats.
Gohan did not like this one bit, but it was for the sake of Goten. "Fine."
Solkarios did not like the idea much anyway. He also had taken it hard when he heard that Chi-Chi, the one who filled the place as his mother had died. He was not crying outwardly his soul was shattered and his heart had been ripped to shreds. It had been the worst day of his life.
The boys appeared back at the place they both have spent their short thirteen years of life. It was their home. A place once filled with laughter and joy now was a graveyard silence that surrounded the Son home. They, both let tears stream freely down their faces, but wept silently.
"So...mom's gone." Solkarios's said solemnly.
Thunder rumbled in the background as a storm hovered miles away blocking out the sun casting a shadow across the Son House.
"Yes, she is. Can you help me bury her?" Gohan replied coldly.
Gohan still was pissed at his best-friend. He really did not want to be around him, but he also knew that Chi-Chi was just as much as a mother to Solkarios as to him so he'd bare being around him for the time being. He took a deep breath to try to relax a bit and started heading into the house that he once called home.
The two hybrids went into the house and went to where Chi-Chi's lifeless body laid. The boys picked her body up and a scroll casing that had a red string around it, fell out of her hand and fell on the floor. Both Gohan and Solkarios's saw it.
"Hey, Gohan, what is that?" Solkarios said motioning his head to the scroll case.
Gohan had seen the scroll case before. It had a strange ki signature attached to it. His mother had said it was for him and Solkarios when they got older. Why would she have that in her hand…did she know she was going to die? Did she know she'd be abandoning her children? Gohan gritted his teeth at the thoughts that crossed his dark mind.
"Let's bury her and come back for it." Gohan replied in an agitated tone.
"Alright, c'mon." Solkarios said helping his best friend carry their dead mother to the shrine in which was dedicated to Goku.
Gohan despised this place it filled him with rage and sadness. Solkarios dug a grave right next to the shrine dedicated to Gohan's father. The boy's lowered their mother into the earth and replaced the dirt that was dug up.
The sky began to grow dark as a storm was getting closer. Lightning flashed setting the tone of controlled chaos in the atmosphere. The two boys stood in silence for several moments paying their respects to their dead mother. After the rain had started to get to a steady pace the two boys went back into the house, soaked to the bone, made their way to the scroll casing that lay undisturbed from where they last left it.
"So what is this scroll?" Solkarios asked Gohan. He felt the strange, but familiar ki that radiated from the casing and the scroll inside the case as he picked up the case.
"My, I mean, our mom told me that it was for us both when we got older." Gohan replied.
"Well let's open it, obviously it's time." The Crimson-eyed Saiyan said as he broke the seal off the case and turned the case upside down to let a tightly rolled scroll fall into his palm.
He handed the scroll to Gohan. "You do the honors."
"Alright." Gohan broke the other seal on the scroll to reveal its contents and both of the boys began to read the words.
What the two teenagers are about to find out will alter them for the rest of their lives.
