Chapter 7: Finding the AnswersI ate dinner with his Family and it was actually nice. I got to know more on Genota. He's very kind and gentle like his father. He loves to read and study like I do. We got some stuff in common. The only difference between us is our personalizes. He seem so calm. I wonder why he is not bothered by his dad being evil.
Nova drives me home. It was so cute seeing the little ones say bye to me. Almost like they didn't want me to go. "My children seem to like you." He says breaking the silence while driving."Well I just have that affect on kids. I can't help it. That's why me and my little bro get along so well.""I see. You are just like Genota. He's the same way with children.""Yeah. I find him really cool. We would be best friends if we went to school together.""You still can. I'm not leaving anytime soon."I could only put on a smile. In order to hide my pity. "You know um...I'm really sorry about your father. I mean how he just left. I feel your pain. I do.""I know you do. I felt your heart ache when I told you my story. Now you know how I feel about you." I nod.He drops me off. And we wave. I go inside in take a shower. As the water running down on me, I can't stop thinking of what he told me earlier. It runs in my head over and over again. The fact that the reason why he's doing all this for me is because it happened to him. And he wouldn't want that to happen to anyone else. He needed his father just like I needed mine when he died. The connection he had with his dad was lost, like mine. The decision his dad made was the same one my dad made. Me and Nova are enemies. But enemies a like. Too much alike. We may be different but our pain and suffering are the same. I HAVE to tell Vegeta about this. This is the most confusing thing we can go though. Vegeta was right. This man is more then just strength. I have to see Vegeta first thing tomorrow.I fly to capsule corp. I knock on the door. Trunks open it. "Hey Gohan!" He says."Hey kid. Where's your dad?""He's not here right now. He's at Goku's house.""Goku's house? What the hell is he doing there?""I think he's there to talk to him about something I heard.""Damn. Out of all the times I need him he had to go to 'his' house. Well then I'm gonna have to head over there.""Why don't you wait until dad comes home? He'll be back.""Hmm. As much as I would like to, but I don't know how long he will be there. And it's important.""He might come home until sunset. I believe he won't take that long."That's right. Trunks is starting to see the future like his dad. So I guess I can trust his word. He knows the wedge between me and Goku. But then again I can't keep running. "Thanks Trunks. As much as I would like to, I can't run from my problems forever. I'm gonna go over there.""Okay.""I'll see ya later. Tell your mom I said hi.""I will. Later Gohan!""Later." I fly up and go to the house. I land on the ground and I knock on the door. Yamcha opens it. "Gohan?""Hello to you too Yamcha." I say."Oh uh hey.""Why the hell are you acting so weird? You act like I'll blow you up or something.""Oh no, I'm just surprised that you're here that's all. Chi Chi said that you don't come here. Well not suppose to.""Gohan?" Says my mom from the back. I went past Yamcha to get in the house."Gohan!" Says Goten as he jumps on me. I catch my balance and hold him."Gohan? What in the planet Vegeta are you doing here?" Says Vegeta coming from the back along with Goku and Tien.I put my hands up. "Don't worry. I'm not here to hurt anyone or start trouble. Geez it's like I'm a bastard child or something. Did I do something wrong?""No you did not, Gohan. But you came at a surprise time. But you know you are not suppose to be here.""Oh I know. I'm sorry. But I had something really important to tell you. It's about Nova. He told me something that you would wanna hear.""Oh really? What is it?""Um...not...""Oh I see. Well I should leave anyway. You can tell me on the way going home." He says as he walk out the door. I kiss Goten's forehead and we left.
On the way I tell Vegeta everything that Nova told me. He suddenly stop his flight and look at me. "Gohan. Do you know what this means? This will be a little less harder now. You and him are the same, it's probably a way you can defeat him. All you need to do is try to convince him that things don't have to be this way."I look at him. Not because of what he said. Because of why he was at the house. But then I realize something. "Vegeta. You and the others was talking about me. Right?" I say calmly."Huh?""Vegeta, please tell the truth."He sigh. So they were talking about me. About my mental weakness. And what I can do. "Look son, we're not trying to get on you or anything. We're only trying to help. We just don't want you to fall and do what you'll regret doing."I look down. "Vegeta. Me and Nova are too much the same. His reasoning for being evil was his because of his father. He became this way, because if him. Because his father left him.""And that why you're gon-""No. I'm. Like. Him. He became evil because of his father. The same shit can happen to me. Vegeta, do you get what I'm saying? I can wine up like this man. Because I'm so fucked up right now.""Gohan.""Vegeta, I might lose this battle. I'm not suitable enough for this. He's gonna beat me."He came in front of me so quick a human would have thought he teleported. He grabs my arms so tight that it hurts but the pain doesn't bother me because of the feeling I'm feeling now. "Gohan. You will not lose. You hear me? You will win. I don't fucking care what it takes you will win. I will not give up on you. I don't care what they or Kakkorot says I'm not losing you." I look down. He grabs my face so I can look at him. "Gohan. I'm with you all the way. You are not alone." He hugs me. I hug him back.
I lay down on the bed in silence. I don't know how things are going to be. But I still have to try. At least try something. I have to.
The next three days I train hard. Real hard. I still have to keep my strength up. The weights that Vegeta gave me comes in handy. It's one of those weights that Piccolo and Goku have. He also gave me weighted clothing which I wear under my shirt. Sometimes over depending on the style.
I take a break and drink some water. I go back outside to get some air. I sit on the grass. "Hello Gohan." I jump up at the voice. Only to see Nova with a smile on his face. Almost like he wanted to laugh."Nova. You scared the hell out of me.""Oh I'm sorry Gohan. But I wanted to surprise you.""Uh-huh. Good move on keeping your ki low. You're good.""Ah so you noticed.""Yeah. We saiyans know how to do that too. I'm good with it as well but my emotions are kinda screwed up so I stop doing that often.""I see. You were training?""Yeah. I gotta keep my strength up.""That's good. I was wondering. Me and my Family is going to watch a play. It's about a Japanese woman and a dragon. The story takes place in the sixteen hundreds era. Would you like to come?""Sure. When is it?""Tonight.""You could have asked me this on the phone.""Oh, I know. But I wanted to come over just to see how you were doing.""I'm fine. I'm just doing what I need to do.""Are you sure?""Hey look, please don't try this today. I'm just trying to hang on to what I need to do.""Okay Gohan. But I know what's going on with you. But even if Vegeta is there for you, he will never be able to save you from your fate.""...At least he will try. I will try. We won't give up.""I know. Well I'm leaving now. I will see you tonight. My servants will pick you up.""Okay." He leaves.
I wash up and pick out my clothes for tonight. I decided to wear a white button up short sleeve shirt and kaki black pants. With black shoes. As I'm ironing my shirt, my house phone rings. I pick up the phone by my hallway. It's Vegeta."Hey Vegeta.""Hey son. How are you?""Fine. Just getting ready for tonight. Nova is inviting me to a play.""Okay just be careful. He called you?""No. He came over to ask me. He wanted to see how I was doing.""He was scanning you. Scanning your emotions.""I figure that. But I'm still gonna try to keep him off.""Right. Look Gohan I know you are feeling down. Kakkorot loves you okay. He's just-""Vegeta, not now. Please. It's not the time. I'm trying to bear this as much as I can. It's bad enough that Nova continues to attack me about my Father. Please, just let it just be him.""...okay son. I'm sorry if I brought this up then. You're right. Nova is enough. I wish I could do the therapy with you. But that will just bring out your emotions just for you to be vulnerable for him.""Right. Just let me face this. If I'm the only one who can do it then let me handle it the way I handle it.""Okay. Well I'm gonna let you go. Why don't you enjoy yourself there? Let the play distract you. He won't get much out of you if you enjoy yourself.""Hmm. That's a good idea. Thanks Vegeta.""Always there to help.""Wait, because you go, what does dad thinks about me hanging out with Nova?""Oh he doesn't like it one bit. After I told him what Nova plan to do with you he got pissed.""That's surprising. He mostly gets mad when Krillan is hurt.""Gohan...""Uh, let me go I'll tell you what happens afterwards tomorrow.""Alright. Remember, 'have fun'."I will. Later Vegeta.""Later." We hang up.My doorbell rings and his servant escorts me to the airship. They ride me to the place. And the line for it is long. Real long. But Nova is in the front. I get out the airship and Nova waves at me. I jog to to him. "We'll you look sharp." He says."Thanks." I say. My shirt is not tucked in."Hey Gohan!" Says the little ones."Hey." I say."Hello Gohan." Says Genota."Hello.""Ah Gohan, I'm so glad you can make it." Says Mala.I blush. "Thanks.""Here." He hands me a ticket. It says V.I.P on it."You got the V.I.P ones?""It to get us the best sits. It be the first ones here.""That's cool. Thank goodness because this line is long.""It is.""Alright, it's open! V.I.P tickets first." Say the guy working there.We was the first ones in since Nova was the first one to buy the tickets. I sit in between Nova and Genota. The show doesn't start in twenty minutes. Since people are getting in. I never knew people like this stuff. I heard of plays and people going, but I never thought of going. I could have went when
I had the money. And It's not so expensive. Nova is talking to his Wife and the other two kids are laughing playing with each other I guess. I sit back and look at the stage. This is actually sort of cool. I might enjoy this. It's like watching a cool movie but only live.
The lights go out. And the announcer tells everyone to be sited. And the show begins.
There is Japanese woman with a nice kimono near the lake by herself. She looks at the reflection looking at herself. Saying something that there is a power in her that she may not be able to control. Then what suppose to be a magic light coming out of her, I think, to appear a dragon. The dragon telling her that he is a part of her, told her just learn how to control her powers.
They story gets more good later on. She is loved by the people in her town. And this boy wants her I suppose. They story gets heavy later when the town people found out about the dragon. They shun her away from the town. Even the man she loved turned away. So she and the dragon knew from then on that all they have is each other. And go off alone. And the curtains close and we clap. That was a good play I wish I went to these kind of things before.
We got to a dinner after that I was talking with Genota about some things. Like the usual. Nova comes in the convo and starts talking with us. Believe it or not, I don't mind talking to him. He's not bad to talk to except when he mentions my dad and his plans. That's about it. "So Gohan, that was your first play?" Ask Nova."Yes it was. I really liked it. It was interesting." I say."That's good. So what are you doing next week?""Nothing really. Training as usual. Why?""Me and my family are having a picnic that day. You wanna come?""Sure.""Good so you can meet me on Tuesday.""Okay."After that I went home. I called Vegeta and told him I actually did have a good time. Vegeta is telling me that's good and all. But Vegeta sounded kinda weird on the phone. Like he's hiding something. "Vegeta you okay?" I ask."Uh, yeah I am.""Okay.""Dammit, no I'm not son. It's Kakkorot. He's getting on my ever loving fucking nerves I swear.""What is he doing now?""He's been coming to me relentlessly about you. He's been trying to get me to look into the future about you to if Nova's plan succeeds. I keep telling that stupid ass monkey to stop coming to me about what happens to the future. We just need to worry about the shit that is happening now.""Well that was idiotic of him. Now I think he might do something. I say the guy is anxious.""You think so too?""He might react. I have a feeling that he's come to my house.""If he does-""I know, I know. I'll keep my cool around him. I won't scream or yell or try to kill him.""I know. By the way he's gonna come to your house in four days.""I figured.""I gotta go. I need to train and get back to my work.""Alright. I'll talk to you tomorrow.""Alright son. Later.""Later."The three days of training for me wasn't that bad. I played my video games and relaxed on my breaks. And I don't think Nova got anything Negative from me. I guess me never going to plays was good thing for me. It saved me from headache.
My doorbell rings and I know it's not Nova. I look though the peek-hole and see Goku. I sigh even though I was ready for this. And I'm stressing the was part. I open the door and walk to into the kitchen and decided to eat ice cream. I dip a spoon in it and eat it. Slowly. Acting like I'm relax. "Wow this place is so nice. And much bigger. I know you been getting money and giving Chi Chi some. We had so much food." He says all normal."That's nice." I say eating my ice cream.He sighs. Here we go. "Look Gohan, I know you don't want to speak to me right now, but just hear me out.""I'm listening.""I don't like the fact that you're spending time with Nova. He's could figure you out. He could exploit your weaknesses.""And I'm doing the same thing. Which is why I'm doing it.""But Gohan this man is evil. He will take advantage of the fact that you are emotionally unstable.""And so is he.""Huh?""So is he. He's emotionally fucked up just like I am. He went though the same pain I went though.""But Gohan even so, he's still trying to use you to reck havoc on earth. I'm just trying to protect you.""Protect me? Are you serious? Are you fucking kidding me, how come you didn't do that shit when you died? When I needed you to be there at that time, I had to be a fucking man at eleven years old. Yeah I defeated Cell, but I still needed my dad. I would have understood, if there were no such thing as the dragon balls. Yeah that would be understandable. But it's because when you decided to stay you made a selfish choice.""Gohan there were people after me and I though that it would have been better for the world if I was dead.""Dad, the world was in danger re-fucking-gardless. Rather if you were dead or alive it wouldn't make a fucking difference.""I know. I'm sorry. Chi Chi wasn't exaggerating when she said you changed a lot. You are so different. You use to be patience and kind and sweet. But now you're..well, this.""Well dad I not only changed, I grew up, and moved on.""I know. Just don't Nova get in your head. He's evil and insane.""Of course he's insane. And if he's insane I'm must be fucked up in the head too.""Gohan you're not-""Nova's father left him the same way you left me.""What?""Yeah that's right. He was around the same age I was when his father did the same thing. Yes he's evil. And he admits he's evil. But this man use to be good. He had no one to help him deal with the pain. If it weren't for Vegeta, I would have been like him right now. If he can be evil, I sure as hell can too. Now let me do what I need to do." I go back to eating my ice cream. He leaves.
Later Vegeta calls me. "Gohan you told him?!""Yeah I did. Why? Should it matter?""I wanted to keep that from him. Because now that he sees that you two have in common he thinks that Nova can get though to his plan.""Well that just shows that he has no type of faith in me.""He does Gohan, he doesn't want you hurt.""Vegeta, if there is one person that can protect me or even saving me is you. It's too late for my father. You were the only one who stood by me when I was in pain. I'm not going to get close to him while Nova is trying to break me. You're the only one who can save me. I'm counting on you, Vegeta.""Gohan...""I would say that Goku should go talk to him myself, but Nova doesn't seem interested in him. I'm going to clean up. I'll talk to ya later Vegeta.""Okay, son. Just be careful.""I will." We hang up.A week has passed and I've been okay. Nova called me just to check up on me but never came around. I guess he's giving me time to prepare. I'm outside on the grass sitting and look up to see someone familiar. It's Genota. He's flying toward me and he leads near me. He waves. "Hello Gohan." He says."Hey Genota. What brings you here?" I ask."I hope I didn't come at a bad time.""Not at all.""Do you mind if I spend some time with you?""Sure. But your father already knows all about me and I'm not going to-""Oh no, not that. I trust you with my father really.""Really? That's strange. I'm your father's enemy and you trust me around him? That's new.""Because you're the first enemy who actually cares about my father.""Huh?""I know my father told you about our grandfather.""Grandfather? Oh you mean his dad.""Right. Do you mind if sit?""Sure."He sits. "I was really surprised at first. I never thought an enemy would actually care.""Well I don't know about that. You can say I can relate to him.""Yes you two do relate. But I'm sorry I sound like a spy, but as I was walking around the house, I walked past and overheard my father talking to you about grandfather. It wasn't a surprise that he told you about his past. It is rarely that he talks about him, and he did tell someone about his father before, and of course they didn't care. When father told me about you, he told me how you are and you do have a good heart and it surprised you that he cares about you. But what surprised me was your reaction to it. You felt his pain. And you tried to convince him to understand that he can move on and that he has family. And even though you know he his wrong, you couldn't help but feel bad for him. You father did what his father did. But even if your father didn't do that, I believe in my heart you would still have cared and tried to convince him. I even talked to my mother about it. She even saw how you cared about him. That's why she was so nice and open to you.""I see. But truth be told, if your dad had someone like Vegeta, he would have been okay.""Vegeta?""Oh I'm sure Nova told you. He's the guy that been there though my pain.""Oh. Yes father did tell me about him.""He decided to be a father to me since I lost mine.""That's great." He has a sad smile."You wish your father had someone like that. Do you?""Gohan... To be honest I do. It hurts me to see him like this. I can imagine losing someone connected to you and you need them some so much. My father loved his father so much. But for something like losing his father change him, it's wrong. He's a loving father. And I love him so much. That's why I'm here to desperately ask you a favor.""What is it?""Please. You're my only hope...no you're our family's hope. Please, Gohan, save my father.""What?""I know this is strange. But please I'm asking you because I know you can save him.""Genota I...I don't know what to say. I don't even know if I can.""Gohan I know this is hard but please.""Genota, what if I lose? Me and your father are having a mental battle and the odds aren't looking good on my side.""I know, my father is very good at hitting with emotions, but even so please, just find a way to save him.""...alright. I'll try my best.""Thank you. I know you can do it. I believe in you.""You're welcome, I think."The next day I decided to see Vegeta, at the mellow and tell him what Genota ask me to do."Really? His son asked you this?" He ask a little shook."Yeah. I mean if you think about it, his son isn't evil. In fact his family isn't evil at all. Only he is.""Well I have to say why you respect him. At least he's there for his family. However I don't like him. Because he's using you for his plans.""Yeah, and saying that no matter what I'll reach my fate.""...""Vegeta, if I reach my fate, would you still save me?""Of course, Gohan.""Then I have nothing to worry to about." I smile. And so does he.The next day I'm with Nova. We're walking in the highlands. Real peaceful. "So what's up with the walk this time, huh Nova? I thought we were going to do something fun." I say."What's wrong with a little walk in nature? I thought you like peaceful stuff?" He says."I do. I guess I'm so use to you taking me places. But a nice walk in the highlands is good.""That's good to to hear. So my son came to see you the other day. How was it with him?""Great actually. You probably know the rest.""Actually I don't. I decided to look into it.""Really?""I trust my son. I don't need to ease drop on him when he's alone. Only when I feel that he's in danger or when he ask me to.""But what about me? I could have harmed him.""I trust you fully. You're a good person Gohan. I know you wouldn't do anything to my family.""Nova. Nova, please, hear me out. I know your father screwed you over. I know he did. But there's no need for you to be evil. Look my father left me and I decided to just forget about him. And do what I need to do and be there for those whose there for me. You can do the same Nova.""Gohan. I understand that you are trying to convince me to do good for my family. My son ask you to try and convince me, didn't he?""He only did because he love you. If I was in his shoes I would have done the same thing.""I know. I never thought my son would get effected by me being evil so badly. He held it in pretty well.""Yes. He's a son so desperately trying to save his father. I would too if I know someone who I believe can save him.""So do you think you can? Do you think you can save me?""N-Nova I... I going to do what I can. I'm not giving up on you.""And you see why I want to take and rise you? You care for me as if I was your father.""Nova please, do it for your family, I know your father fucked you over I know how that feels, but you...you have to forgive him.""Alright. But do you forgive you father?""No. No I don't, I have to admit that. But it will take some time. I know,I want to punch him in the face for doing what he did. But I have to let go of what he did. Not for me for myself. You need to the same. You don't always got to think of him, but move on for you. For yourself Nova.""If you can see your heart now Gohan. You don't even realize it yourself. But you wouldn't deny it either." The sky got cloudy. And drips a rain started to fall."Nova. Stop this. You're a good man. Deep inside you there is a good man in you. What's keeping that man inside is that you refuse to let go of what happened to you. Please, I know you hate my dad but that's someone I have to worry about. Nova you have a family. All you're doing is hurting them by doing this.""It true. I am. But unlike your family at least they are there for me no matter what. Vegeta didn't even tell you the full story, although he's the only who's willing to save you.""What are you talking about?" The rain began to to get heavy."And for this moment is when to put on my villain gloves. Your father continues to bother Vegeta about about the future. Your father does certainly get anxious about you. Vegeta finally gave in and tells him. He saw you causing havoc on earth and Goku keep pressuring him to see if there was anything to stop it." The rain got heavy."What? But Vegeta will save me.""He will try. That won't happen though. Because Vegeta didn't mention the one thing that will only hurt you. But regardless I must tell and this is the real reason why I want to take you away from here. Since Vegeta kept having the same horrible visions of you. You father along with the others agreed, that he will kill you." Thunder and lighting flash as he finished that sentence.
I stand. Frozen. As if the rain wasn't cold enough. The rain poring down on me. My whole body...my nerves going numb. I couldn't believe it. No I didn't what to believe it. But it was true. Otherwise I would have been arguing with him right now. I fall to my knees. Hands to the ground as if to keep my trembling body in balance. My mind racing into different things. I can't think straight. I feel an arm on my back. Only to comfort me. Then I was finally able to speak. "Nova...please...tell me this isn't true.""I wish it wasn't."I get up. "I'm going over to Vegeta." I say expressionless. I fly out so quick with my mind racing like speed racer. I'm not even sure if Nova is following me. Right now I need to confront him.
I go down in front of capsule corp., and bang on the door, but I keep my strength in because I don't want to break it. Bulma opens it up. "Gohan?" She says surprisingly. "What are you doing here? I though you were with Nova?""Where's Vegeta?""He's in the back Goku in the others. Why? Did something happen?""Excuse me." I march in the back and see Vegeta pop up the from sitting in the chair. Goku and Piccolo was on the opposite side. "Gohan what are you do-" Vegeta says but I interrupt him."Tell me this isn't true." I say loud."Tell you is what isn't true? Gohan what happen? You're soaked.""Tell me that, THAT FUCK OVER THERE DIDN'T SAY HE'LL KILL ME!" I say pointing at Goku."What?! Where did you hear that from?!""Nova told me everything.""He what?! AH FUCK!""Dammit this isn't good." Says Goku."Oh god this is true. Let me...let me go outside." I say. I run outside and take a breath out in the rain."Gohan, please calm down, just try to relax.""How the fuck am I suppose to be relaxed?! My father, my own, father, IS OUT TO KILL ME!""Look Gohan I will do whatever it takes, I'm trying to stop that now.""Gohan. Look I'm sorry if I took it far but your power level is-" says Goku."FAR?! OH YOU TOOK IT WAY FUCKING FAR! How could you?" I'm sobbing now. "How you do this to me. First you leave me when I need you and now you wanna kill me? Why?! WHY THE FUCK DO YOU KEEP HURTING ME LIKE THIS?!""Gohan, calm down!" Screams Piccolo."NO! And how could you Piccolo?! I thought you loved like one of your own. How could you agree to this shit?!""Look Gohan-""FUCK YOU! YOU GREEN SHIT! AND FUCK YOU TOO YOU NO GOOD FATHER!""Gohan. Please, calm down. Gohan I'm doing this for the world. I don't want to do this to you." I fall on my knees with my head to the ground. "I'm sorry Gohan but your power is too strong." Goku puts hand on my shoulder. I take his arm and break it. "AHHHHH""FUCK YOU!" I punch him across the field. Piccolo goes to him."Gohan stop! You're losing it!" screams Vegeta."Shut the fuck up Vegeta! I trusted you! I thought you was able to save me! How could you! I love you like my own Father!""I never betrayed you! I'm doing whatever the best I can fucking can to save your ass!""Then why the fuck are you helping them?! That fuck don't fucking care about me!""He does Gohan!""THEN TELL ME WHY THE FUCK IS HE TRYING TO KILL ME?! WHY MUST HE KILL HIS OWN SON?! HIS OWN FLESH AND BLOOD?! HUH VEGETA?!""Gohan! I'm doing what I can." He comes near me. I punch him."Get the fuck away from me, you're with them!"To my surprise Vegeta gets up and push me down. He gets on top of me. "GET OFF OF ME!""NO! NOT UNTIL YOU COME TO YOU'RE SENSES!"I punch him off me. He gets up and we start fighting. Vegeta did last long but I decided not to hold back no longer. I beat him to a pulp. And I stand over him. "Vegeta. I fucking love you man. Like my own dad. I needed you to save me because I knew my father couldn't. But how could you?" I say crying. "How...how could...you? You all are against me! What did I do?! WHAT DID I DO WRONG? HUH?! ALL I WANTED WAS MY FATHER BACK! THAT ALL I WANTED! WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?!""Nothing is...wrong with...that...Gohan. Please, I'm still...here for you...I love you...like my own son...just please we can still save you." Says Vegeta crawling to me."No there is no hope for me. I have no one here.""That's part true." Says Nova. He walks near me. "He has no one here. Only I can truly understand him, Vegeta.""Nova...you...fuck..." Says Vegeta."You see Vegeta, you may have taken his place, as his father, but you will never understand him. You never lost your father the way Gohan did. Our fathers left us by choice. Therefore, we must make him suffer. Gohan are you going to come with me?"I look at him. Tears still in my eyes. "Yes, Nova. I will.""I will make sure that you're be alright." He holds my shoulders. I suddenly see a big ship ready. "Come on Gohan it's time to leave.""Where are we going?""Oh we're just gonna go back home to our planet. It will only take a week to get there. Don't worry. Everything will be alright.""Okay.""Let's get you inside.""No Gohan! Don't go with him!" Piccolo tries to attack Nova but I blast him over to where Goku is."No one tells me what to do." I say."No...Gohan, please...don't go..." Says Vegeta. I couldn't bare to look at him."Nova. Let's get out of this this God forsaken planet.""Yes Gohan." He walks me to the ship"No... Gohan...come back! GOHAAAAAAN!" Screams Vegeta. I only close my eyes as the ship door closes."There's are room for you to get clean. I'll get you some clothes." Says Nova. I say nothing.
I fall to the floor. I feel someone wrap a blanket on me. I look to see Genota. He smiles a sad smile. I start crying and he holds me. "It's okay." He says rubbing my back.
I'm washed up already and in my underwear only. I fall on the bed. What the hell just happened? What did I do. Did I...hurt Vegeta? Did he...betray me? But why would he...and why would my father want to ki...ki..ll me. I cry as I think about it. I can't take it anymore. Have I become a villain? Am I evil?
I hear someone come in. It's Nova. I hug my arms. He sits on the bed. "Are you alright, Gohan?""No I'm not.""I understand. This is all too much to take in at once.""Why? Why the hell would he try to kill me? I know I'm emotionally fucked up and can't control my powers. But for him to go that far? I wish I was never born!""Shh, calm down, come here." He hugs me.
I wake up early in the morning. I smell something. It's breakfast. I sit up. I here a knock on the door. "Can I come in?" Says a woman. I think it's Mala."Um yes." She comes in with a tray of food. And she puts it down and sits next to me. "Um thanks, but don't your servants usually do this? Or shouldn't you let them?""I decided to do it because I wanted to talk to you.""Oh, look if it's about me-" she puts her finger on my lips."Not at all." She removes them. "Oh I'm sorry. Women don't normally do that in your planet, right?""Um only to their lovers.""Oh. But don't worry my husband won't mind.""Okay.""But sweetheart I understand what you're going though. You been though so much pain and only to find out that your father is doing the most horrible thing to you. We will not let that happen. We will be there for you.""Mala.""And I believe that you can save my Husband.""But I-""No, you have not failed. You can still save him.""Okay. I'll do whatever I can.""Thank you. Now eat up. This is an important day for you.""Okay."After that I put on some clothes. The clothes are unique. All white and black cool designs. Mines have a black dragon on them. I go to the main room to see everyone waiting for me. "Ah Gohan you're awake. Why do you sit there?" He points at the sofa, with no one on it. I sit. I'm across the family. "So Gohan you already know why you're here. Gohan, do you want to be a part of this family?""If all of you want me here.""Of course we do." Says Mala."It will be an honor to have you as a brother." Says Genota"Gohan we be great brother like Genota!" Says Dazin."Yay Gohan!" Says Nanan."Okay. I would like to be a part of it then." Nova, Mala, and Genota rise from their sits. Nova rise me up. "Welcome to the family. My son.""I'm glad to be here. Father." My words, to him.CHAPTER 7:END And that's all. Surprise! Yes that's right Goku is trying to kill his own boy. Sucks for Gohan now doesn't it? I was taking long with this story because I needed a reason for Gohan to leave. And his one friend and family is planning to kill him. There was a reason why Goku came up with that reason. But I'm sure some of you figured it out already. If not the explanation will be in the next chapter. Oh and a mental note, the next couple of chapters will be on Vegeta POV. Don't worry, Vegeta is not giving up on him yet. I will work on the next one as soon as I can. See ya then. Chao!
