(Chapter 7)

The next morning Goten woke up and headed to Tyashi's home to refuse his offer. He landed at his store step and knocked on the door. He took a step back, and the door opened to reveal Tyashi with a smile on his face.

"Ready to go Goten."

"I'm sorry Tyashi. I was under the impression I was walking your dog, not you."

"You know I can pay you a lot of money."

"I know, but I don't want to be paid to be your latest boy toy. No amount of money you offer can convince me otherwise."

"Who tipped you off?"

"You're boss."

"Mr. Briefs."

"Yeah, he's my best friend."

"Interesting," said Tyashi as a car parked near the curb.

A figure came up behind Goten and before he could move, a cloth was placed over his mouth. Goten struggled, but the dose on the cloth was stronger. He was unconscious. The figure put Goten in the backseat, and Tyashi got in with the figure. They were off.

"Good work Yamcha."

"Thank you sir." Yamcha smirked.

Evening came, and Goten came to conscious to notice he was left in an ally. His legs were sore. He managed to stand and lean himself up against the wall. He noticed a sliver bracelet on his left wrist, and his eyes widened.

"Wait, this is Bulma's ki bracelet. How did Tyashi get his hands on it?"

His head started to pound, and he brought his hand to soothe his aching head. He looked around to see where he was and then he started walking until he was out of the city. It was nightfall before he got to the mountain area. He sneaked into the house quietly, ran up to his room, removed his clothes, and hopped in the shower. He got dressed as soon as he dried himself. He slipped into bed and drifted off without a whimper from his ordeal.

Tuesday came as Trunks decided to see Goten. He flew towards the mountain area only to sense Goten further away. He landed to see Goten working on his home. His shirtless body was dripping with sweat, and Trunks couldn't take his eyes off of the raven-haired saiyan.

'He's so beautiful,' Trunks said to himself. He shook off the feeling. "Hey Goten, how's the home coming?"

"It's almost done, take a look."

The wooden hut looked like an architect had made it. It was bigger than he thought.

"Wow Goten, it looks really great. How long did it take you to build?"

"I started yesterday. I was here all night. I-I needed to distract myself."

"From what?"

Suddenly, Goten's eyes became glassy, and Trunks grew concerned.

"Chibi, what's wrong?"

Goten turned away from Trunks and took a breath before he turned around.

"I went to see Tyashi yesterday, and I told him I refused his offer. B-before I know it, something strong comes to my mouth and I pass out. When I woke up, I was left in an alley. I-I Trunks, I think I was raped."

Goten broke down and fell to his knees, crying into his hands. Trunks stood frozen. He could feel the warmth spread throughout his body as he began to change. Trunks knelt before Goten and took him in his embrace. Goten noticed the golden flames that surrounded him. Trunks was furious. He spotted his mother's bracelet on Goten's wrist. He held Goten tighter.

"I promise that he won't hurt you again chibi. He'll pay for what he did to you."

"T-t-there was another person, but I can't make him out."

"What! You mean two people-

Goten gripped Trunks tighter, crying harder into his arms.

"I-I tried to get the bracelet off, but it won't come off."

Trunks didn't say another word as he took Goten in his arms and flew off.

"Trunks, where are you taking me?"

"My home. You're not safe at your new place until that bracelet comes off. We'll stop by my mother's tomorrow.

Goten nodded. "You know you're still a super saiyan?"

"I know Goten. It's just going to take sometime for me to calm down."

He entered his home to see Bulla still on the couch and when she noticed Trunks carrying a tired, dried tears Goten she came up to them.

"Oh my kami, Goten what happened? You look terrible."

"What are you still doing here?"

"Mom called. Dad wanted me out of the house for the day."

"Why?"

"Please don't make me explain," said Bulla as blush covered her face.

"Oh, well I guess you can stay."

Trunks let Goten down, and Goten made his way to the guest room. Trunks could here the shower running.

"I'll get him some fresh clothes. Bulla, can you whip up a meal for a saiyan?"

"You bet Trunks." She headed towards the kitchen.

Goten closed his eyes as the warm water caressed his skin. When he looked down, he saw the bruises on his thigh, and his hand made his way to one.

"This won't hurt much, Goten," said as Tyashi nibbled his thigh, moving towards his manhood.

A pare of eyes was watching them with want and lust.

"He's a good looking boy, Yamcha. Don't worry, I'll give you your turn."

Goten turned off the shower, got out, and wrapped a towel around his waist. He felt nauseous, so he kneeled before the trash and emptied his stomach. He stood up, leaning against the tiled wall.

"I-I can't believe it. Why would he do such a thing?"

He made his way into the bedroom to see clothes had been put on his bed. He sat down, took the clothes on his lap and held them close. Trunks's scent was all over them. He put them on and made his way out of his room to smell the scent of food.

"Hey Goten, I made you lunch," said Bulla.

"Thank you Bulla. It smells good," said Goten.

Bulla came up to him with a smile and wrapped her arms around him in a comforting hug.

"I don't know anything, but you just look so sad Goten. Are you ok? You don't have to tell me what happened, but I'm your friend to. I'm here for you."

"I know Bulla. You're the best."

"My boyfriend thinks so. Well sit and dig into the meal I made you."

She watched Goten stuff his face and soon enough he finished.

"Wow, you were really hungry."

"Yeah, so you have a boyfriend. Who's the lucky guy who's swept you off your feet?"

"Uub."

"I'm happy for you he's a cool guy."

"Thanks Goten."

Trunks came into the room to see his sister and Goten chatting.

"Hey Trunks, what's going on?" asked Bulla as Trunks sat beside.

"I called the cops," said Trunks.

"What!" exclaimed Goten.

"The police are on their way to Tyahsi's house as we speak," said Trunks.

"Trunks."

"Goten, he deserves to go to jail because of what he did to you. I'm not going to let him get a second chance at you or at other innocent people."

"I-I understand, so I need to tell you who the second person is."

"Who is it?"

"Yamcha."

"WHAT!" yelled Trunks as Bulla and Goten covered their ears.

"I heard his voice. I was in and out of consciousness, but I know it was him."

Bulla noticed the bracelet on Goten's wrist and remembered the kind of guy Tyashi is, and she put it all together. She put her hand in front of her and couldn't stop the tears from rolling down her face. Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

"I-I'll get it," said Bulla trying not to let herself cry out loud.

She opened the door to see her smiling boyfriend standing before, and she broke down in his arms.

"Bulla, what happened?" asked Uub with concern in his eyes.

She didn't answer, so he closed the door. He helped his girlfriend to the couch. She leaned into him and took a breath. Bulla turned her head towards Goten.

"Can I tell him, Goten?"

Goten nodded. "But he can't tell anyone."

"I understand."

Bulla explained what had happened to Goten two days ago while Trunks kept his eyes on Goten. He placed his hand over Goten's and held it firmly.

"You know I'm going to have to bring Yamcha into the police."

"Yeah I know, so where is he?"

"He's at your home."

"Then we should go now."

"Are you sure Goten?"

"Yes."

"Are you guys coming?" asked Trunks.

They nodded, and they all flew off to the mountain area, Uub carrying Bulla and Trunks carrying Goten in his arms. They landed close to the Gohan's house, and they all walked towards the house. Trunks knocked on the door.

"Hey Trunks," said Gohan as he looked pass them. "Everyone come in."

They came in and sat in the living area.

"So, what brings you all here?" asked Gohan.

"Is Yamcha here?" asked Trunks.

"Yeah, he and dad just came back from fishing. They brought back a whopper. It's hanging outside."

"I'll be right back," said Trunks as he walked out of Gohan's home.

"I wonder what's with him," said Gohan.

"You'll find out in a few seconds," said Bulla.

Trunks made his way to the main house and knocked on the door. He heard Chi-chi's yell telling Goku to get the door.

"Hi uh Trunks," said Goku.

"Don't mind my rudeness Goku this will only take a second." Trunks walked pass Goku into the house to see Yamcha sitting at the dinning room table.

"Hey Trunks. It's good to see you," said Yamcha.

"I can't say the same." Trunks took Yamcha by his shirt and dragged him outside.

"Trunks, what do you think you're doing?" asked Goku.

"Do you want to know what this fucker did to your son."

"Goten," said Goku.

He stole my mother's ki bracelet from the lab. He and my employee, Tyashi knocked Goten unconscious with a strong substance. They forced themselves on him and left him in an alley afterwards. Tyashi's been arrested. I'm here to take this scum to jail. I called up special guards for him since he could practically break out of jail at anytime."

"Yamcha, why did you do this to my son?" asked Goku.

"I was curious what a virgin saiyan tasted like."

Trunks punched him in the face, giving Yamcha a black eyes and a broken nose. Finally he knocked him unconscious and flew off with him to jail.

Goku made his way to his older son's house.

"Gohan."

"Hey dad, Goten's here."

Goku rushed in and took Goten in his arms and held him. He wanted to cry, but he holds it together for his son.

"Dad, what's going on?" asked Gohan.

"Maybe we should leave these three alone," said Uub as Bulla nodded. They headed to Chi-chi's house.

Goten buried his eyes in his father's shoulder and gripped him for life while Goku rubbed his back, trying to comfort his son. He let him go when he calmed down.

"W-who's going to tell mother?" asked Goten.

"I'll tell her Goten. Don't worry about it," said Goku as he left the house.

"Goten, what's wrong?" asked Gohan.

"You might want to sit down," said Goten. "You see this bracelet that I'm wearing."

"Yeah, it's Bulma's latest invention. How did it end up on your wrist?"

"It all started when my boss said a man named Tyashi was willing to pay me any amount of money to walk his dog. Later I realized he wanted me to walk him. His dog had died a month ago. I refused his proposition and his money, and I guess he didn't like that so-

"So what Goten?"

Goten got up and walked around the living room until he stared out the window. He took a deep breath and turned to face Gohan.

"I was attacked by Tyashi and Yamcha. They drugged me with some pretty strong stuff. When I woke up, I was left in an alley. My legs were sore. There are bruises on my thighs, and there was liquid coming out of me. I was raped by both of them."

Gohan was speechless and didn't notice Goten walk out of the house. He made his way away from Gohan's and his home. He lied on the lush grass and let the tears stream down his face.

Trunks had just left Yamcha in a prison to rot and flew back towards the mountain area. He sensed Goten was a little further away from his house.

"What does he think he's doing? He doesn't need to be alone right now."

Suddenly, he felt a stabbing pain in his heart. He grabbed his chest and lowered himself. He finally found Goten lying on the grass and another jolt entered his body.

"W-what's happening to me?"

The pain increased so much that he couldn't fly, so he started to fall. Goten looked towards the sky to see a falling body, and his eyes widened.

"TRUNKS!" screamed Goten as he ran towards where Trunks was falling. He made his stance in the Earth and brought his arms out, catching Trunks in his grip. Trunks opened his eyes to see himself in Goten's arms.

"Are you ok? What happened?"

"I-I don't know. I just felt this incredible pain running through my whole body, and I couldn't keep my concentration to fly anymore."

"Hey are you ok?"

Goten held Trunks close with his face hidden and his shoulders trembling. Trunks's face turned a crimson color, but he ignored it. He found Goten's chin and soon his tear stained eyes. He couldn't stop his from moving from Goten's chin to his cheek.

"Goten, are you with me?"

He stood up with Trunks still in his arms and he walked back to the house. Trunks wondered if Goten could hear his racing heart. He didn't say anything. What could he say? Before he knew it, Goten let him down on his feet. He turned to Trunks.

"I need to pack my stuff. I'm moving into my house tonight."

As Goten began to walk off to the home lived in for most of his life, Trunks's hand stopped him.

"I don't think that's such a good idea, Goten."

"Well I wasn't asking you."
