Chapter Three: Irony

-

Ledi brushed her hair back. She stood up and rearranged her top. It looked was extremely small and hardly covered her breast. Her small 'skirt' showed off her legs well.

She stuck her finger into her mouth and sucked it, looking up at the ceiling. She heard footsteps behind her and stood up quickly, brushing herself off to make sure that she looked presentable.

The person walked into the room and looked at her right away. He grinned.

"Did you get him here?" She nodded. "Good girl."

She stood up and was about to follow him out. He turned around to look at her. He let a little of his rough exterior show.

"What is it Ledi?" She stuttered a little bit.

"I-I was um…"

"Yes?"

"What shall I call you in front of the others? They can't know you're real name…" She was able to get out. He thought about this for a bit and grinned horribly again. She liked it though.

"Call me Sayia-jin." She looked at him confused.

"Why 'Sayia-jin? I thought-" She was cut off because he came down and kissed her roughly. He rammed her into the wall.

"Ledi?"

"Yes?"

"You talk to much." She grinned at him.

"I guess you're going to have to make me shut up then, aren't you?" He knew very easily what she was suggesting. He held back though. He couldn't do that, at least not yet.

"I've got business to attend to Ledi, Earth's plagues have started to spread and Namek is following it. I've got to make sure it stays this way." She pouted at him. "And don't look at me like that." He kissed her more softly this time. He got up to leave and went out the door. He turned around to look at the silver colored hair teenager.

Videl breathed heavily through her nose. She wasn't getting any dream voices this time. She suspected that that was good. But she was able to catch a face. It looked extremely familiar to her though, but she couldn't place her finger on where…

It was a girl's face, but she didn't know who's it was. She bit her lip again and tried as hard as she could to bring the image of the girl back up. Why couldn't she hear any voices this time? She might have been able to figure out who they all belong too. That's something that she still has to figure out, much to her dismay.

She drifted off to sleep for a few more minutes, being extremely lucky, from her point of view, that she got no dreams.

After all, the dreams were pretty much what got her into the hospital in the first place.

She blinked her eyes and woke up. She was happy to see that no one was around her hospital bed this evening. Apparently she didn't scream…

Hopefully that was good.

She brought her hand up and gingerly wiped away the sweat and bangs from her face. Why was she sweating anyway? The fan was going full blast right beside her… She sighed.

Maybe all of this was just her hormones working over drive or something like that. She nodded her head. That was the most likely answer anyway. She laid her head back down, ready to get a little bit more sleep…

The wind blew harder until finally, it literally threw him. He crashed through trees, and branches, and some things that he'd rather not think about. After a while, he landed, straight onto his back which was hitting everything.

"ARGH!" He yelled in pain. He fought many times before but it seemed as though this pain was intensified some how. What that girl said about him being an untrained human against an elite saiya-jin was obviously true.

He swallowed. The wind had stopped. He started to get up onto his feet but he just fell over again. He felt mud start to seep into his wounds, making them burn, but at the same time, feel better. He pushed himself up again and fell forward this time, so that he was on his hands and knees.

He crawled over to a tree and tried his best to lean on it. He pulled himself up and stayed like that for a few seconds, getting used to the pain that was coursing threw him at the moment. Biting his lip, he thought about his current situation.

Alright, I have no one here I know, everything here is stronger than me, and my chances of living are pretty much zip.

Why did he join??

Images of Videl started to flow through his head. The shocking part was, was that not all of them were what the little girl showed him. What was going on??

He kept watching until he saw that she was sleeping peacefully. He actually heard her murmur something. He thought it might not be real, but tried to listen to 'her' as well as he could.

"G-G…" She didn't say anything else. Gohan had to refrain from forcefully doing something that he might regret later on.

Not only were things going nuts around the galaxy, but also in his own head.

He did not need this

Why did I want to leave? What the hell is wrong with me?? I know that dads death is my fault, but I need to be there for mom and Goten, to at least help make up for the mistakes I've done! …I can't do that here.

He sighed again and laid his head onto the tree that he was currently beside.

I am such and idiot.

Chichi sat down in the kitchen, sipping a cup of hot chocolate. She closed her eyes and brought the cup to her forehead, one thought in her head.

When will they stop leaving me?

She looked up when she heard footsteps coming down the hall. Goten walked up to her and hugged her legs, putting his head in her lap.

"Kaasan, I can't go to sleep without brother." Chichi patted his head lightly and pulled him onto her lap. She laid her chin onto his forehead and rocked him back and forth silently.

"You know what Goten? I can't either."

The two of them stayed like that for a little longer. She felt Goten get more and more less tense and finally was practically lifeless in her lap. She smiled down at her youngest.

"You're not leaving me for a long while, do you know that Goten?" As if he was responding to her, he put his hands around her neck and snored lightly. Chichi petted his hair again and took him into her room. She didn't really want him to wake up without someone there for him to wake up. It looked like she was going to have to take place for Gohan a little while.

Piccolo mused silently over possibilities about why his former student could be missing. He didn't exactly understand just how one moment he can be someplace, and then the next, be somewhere else. If we were talking Instant Transmission, maybe, but they weren't.

He was positive on that.

But still, he knew absolutely no way for Gohan to just disappear. He thought about a few other options but shook his head no. He wondered silently about something silently but then got an idea.

Being the former Kami, he knew how to get to Goku throught King Kai, but he mainly wanted to talk to King Kai. The moment Goku heard, he'd probably break a lot of rules to find Gohan…Piccolo was willing to do that himself.

He waited silently for a few minutes when he finally got King Kai.

What do you want?

Do you know where Gohan is?

I hate being used as a telephone… Where Gohan is? Goku's kid?

Yes.

Hmmm…

Piccolo waited silently, hoping that King Kai would say that he knew where Gohan was right away. He had a bad feeling in his gut that he might not even get the answer that he knew where he was… That would not be good.

Well?

…Can't feel him anywhere, and no news of where he left. All I know is that he disappeared.

Fine.

He left right off leaving King Kai talking to himself about people not saying 'Welcome.'
