Hey guys. It's been a while. I've been busy. I just wasn't in the updating mood.
Several of you asked for the power levels of the major characters. It's hard to calculate something like this. The numbers aren't really consistent in the canon Dbz.
Update: My list of power levels used to be here but I deleted it. I got tips from others and I decided it's too much trouble. The canon Dbz producers stopped giving the power levels and I'm going to do the same. Sorry guys!
Chapter 11. I'm sorry I'm not perfect.
Vegeta was sitting on the ground with his legs crossed over each other. His eyes were closed which gave away that he did not want to be disturbed. The sounds of a fight were heard on the platform. Raditz was standing with his arms crossed over each other watching a fight with interest.
Nappa and Turles were teaming up against Katy in their way of a training session. Turles blocked a punch from the female and held it tight. She frowned up at him and used her leg to block a kick from Nappa. As Nappa pulled back Katy tried to free her wrist from Turles. The male warrior turned her arm and twisted it on her back. Katy squealed in pain as he tightened his grip on her arm. Nappa appeared in front of her and pushed his fist deep into her stomach.
Katy gasped out drops of blood as she sank through her knees. Turles released her and stepped back as Katy fell on the ground. Vegeta opened his eyes and watched as Katy regained her breath. Small drops of sweat trickled down her forehead and landed on the white ground. "Are you getting up any time soon?" Turles sneered as he crossed his arms.
"I give up." Katy gasped out. "You win." She let herself sit down and placed her hand on her side.
"Tssk. Saiyans don't give up. Get up and fight us." Turles answered as he nudged against her leg with his foot.
"I'm not a Saiyan, remember? I don't like it that you start treating me like one just because I am mated with Gohan." Katy answered while she looked up at Turles. "I have some pride."
Turles reached down and wrapped his hand around her pink ponytail. He pulled her up in the air. "Turles! Stop it!" Katy complained as he pulled her up even higher so that her feet lost contact with the ground. Katy whimpered in pain.
"Make me stop." Turles mocked as he leaned in closer. Katy's hands were scratching at his hands as she tried to release her hair from his grip.
"You're such a jerk." Katy growled as she kicked at him. Turles released her hair and grabbed her leg. He tightened his grip on her lower leg and threw her down to the ground again. Katy opened her eyes and rolled away before Nappa could press his foot down on her stomach. She rolled on her back and jumped up.
Turles tried to punch her but Katy blocked his attack and used his arm as leverage to push her body up and bring her fist down on Turles's head. She pushed him away and turned around to block an attack from Nappa. She was too late though and Nappa punched her in the cheek. Katy stumbled back. She turned around got in a fighting stance. Nappa and Turles were standing on either side of her and she tried to keep an eye on both of them. "It's too bad whelp cannot see you like this. It would make our punishment much better."
"It's not fair that you are punishing me to get back at him." Katy snarled back.
"Just to let him know that he can't leave his mate behind like that." Turles answered with a smirk. "You'll get used to this kind of fights quite soon though. Trust me." Turles tilted his head. "Let's continue, shall we?"
Before Katy could react the two adults launched at her once more.
**** DBZ **** DBZ ****
Gohan and Justin were sitting on the edge of the small stairs to the white training area. "I think I'm going to miss this place in a way." Gohan muttered as he looked up. "It's nice and quiet. We can train here all day without being disturbed. I have everything I need right here." Gohan said. "It's too bad only two people can stay here at the same time."
"I guess. We can stay here a little longer if you want." Justin offered as he glanced sideways. Gohan eyed his friend. His brown eyes moved from the wounds and scrapes on Justin's face to his ragged uniform. Gohan looked down at his own once more destroyed uniform.
"No. We should go back. I don't want to know what they did to Katy." Gohan answered. "I bet they hurt her just to insult me."
"You think they would do that?" Justin asked as he watched Gohan get up.
"I would be disappointed if they didn't." Gohan answered.
Justin quickly got up too and followed Gohan to the door. The two friends smiled at each other as Gohan opened the door. Their eyes squinted as a reaction to the glare of the sun. They noticed nobody really knew they were here and decided to find the others. The two comrades found their friends out on the platform. Vegeta and Raditz were fighting each other and the others were watching them.
Gohan appeared next to Katy and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Good morning." He said with a smile. Katy looked up and smiled.
"Hi." She answered. Gohan frowned when he noticed her wounded appearance. She was sporting a blue eye and a split lip. Small wounds and bruises were covering her naked arms and lower legs.
"What happened to you?" Gohan asked worriedly.
"They happened." Katy muttered. "Never go in there without their permission again." Katy continued as she got up. "Vegeta!" She yelled.
Said warrior turned away from the fight and looked at them. "I can get a senzu bean now."Katy yelled.
Vegeta smirked and nodded. The man landed in front of the two warriors and handed Katy a bean. "That will teach you not to leave without asking our permission." Vegeta said as his eyes locked onto Gohan's.
"Punishing her for my crimes. I thought you couldn't sink any lower." Gohan snarled back. Vegeta narrowed his eyes.
"I'll let that one slide." Vegeta said as he turned away from them. Gohan growled in annoyance but he decided not to fight them just before the match against the androids.
All the warriors gathered together on the lookout and met up with Bulma and Chi-chi. Bulma had a new uniform for all of them. Goku politely refused the offer but the others decided to wear it. The uniforms were blue. Bulma created a new white armor with beige shoulder bands. Gohan pulled on a white boot and tilted his head. "It feels great." He said. "Just like I'm used to."
Katy was pulled on a white glove as Chi-chi and Bulma pulled away the towels they were holding around her so she could change. Raditz tousled Gohan's now short hair and smirked. "We're ready to go." He announced. Gohan nodded in agreement.
"I'd say we find those robots and have ourselves a rematch." Vegeta suggested as he pulled on his glove.
"Wait for me!" Trunks landed on the lookout.
"What happened to you?" Gohan asked. "Father said you were going back to the future."
"Yeah but I decided to come back one more time so I could help you." Trunks answered as he brushed through his lavender hair.
"I don't care who joins us. I will defeat that wench in the end." Vegeta said frowning. "Let's go show them what it means to mess with a saiyan." Vegeta hissed. The others nodded and they all left off. Chi-chi sighed as she watched her son go.
Goten looked up at his mother. "Mom! Can I go too?" He asked.
"No, Goten. Let your father and your brother take care of it." Chi-chi answered with a smile as she petted on his head.
The group of warriors flew in high speed as they searched for any recently destroyed cities. Goku went to fly next to Gohan. "Gohan. I wanted to talk to you." Goku said as he glanced sideways. Gohan didn't look back at him but acknowledged his father by nodding. "In the Time Chamber, Turles and I had a lot of time to talk. We talked about you sometimes. He told me some stories." Gohan clenched his fists but didn't answer. "Some stories were hard to listen to. I didn't know the life in that organization could be so rough." Goku hesitated. "Is it true that you killed innocent people?"
Gohan glanced back at his father. "Yes, I did. It was my job. I was trained for it since I was four .What did you expect?" Gohan snarled back. "Raditz wanted you to work for Freeza but in stead he decided to take me. I went in your place. That's what happened." Gohan growled before he went to fly faster.
Goku sighed as he watched Gohan fly to Vegeta who was leading the group. Several hours went by and the group was beginning to get annoyed by the lack of androids. Vegeta stopped flying. "Where the hell are they?" Vegeta snarled.
"There is someone coming." Gohan said as he glanced sideways. "Who are they?"
"That's Krillin and Yamcha." Goku answered as he looked in the same direction. "And Tien. They're all here to help us fight." Goku started waving enthusiastically. Gohan raised an eyebrow as he crossed his arms.
"They're weaklings. How can they help us?" Gohan sneered.
"Don't judge so fast." Goku answered as he sent his son a strict glance. Gohan rolled his eyes.
Krillin, Yamcha and Tien appeared near them within seconds. "Need any help?" Krillin asked with a grin.
"It's great to see you again." Goku answered with the same grin. "We could sure use your help."
"Gohan. How does it feel to be home again?" Krillin asked with a smile.
"Earth is not my home." Gohan answered shortly. Krillin frowned confusedly and floated back. The man sent a wary glance to Goku but the Saiyan shrugged back. Vegeta snorted as he turned around.
"This is taking too long." Vegeta snarled. "The robots will get bored if we don't watch out." He continued as a smirk appeared on his face. The others looked up in confusion and then noticed the two androids were floating near them.
"You again." Eighteen said as she crossed her arms. She had clearly changed her clothing. Her former black shirt was traded in by a blue top. She was wearing a brown jacket over it. Her legs were hidden behind jeans and she was wearing boots with heals. "I didn't think we would see you again after how you ran away last time." She sneered.
"This time we will defeat you." Vegeta answered as he sank into a fighting stance.
"Let me try this time, Vegeta." Turles said as he floated closer. "You and whelp got a shot at them last time. Now I want to fight them."
Vegeta seemed to consider this but he pulled back. The man shrugged. "Whatever. Have fun." He said as he waved to the androids.
Turles grinned as he floated to the female android. "I pick you." He said. Eighteen shrugged as she sent him a sweet smile. Gohan and the others floated back as they prepared for a large battle between the two warriors.
"Fine. It doesn't matter who I fight against. I will win in the end." She sneered as she got in a fighting stance. Turles disappeared and appeared above the android. He tried to kick her head off but she dived down to avoid it. Turles didn't give up and tried to kick against her back but the android held up her arm to block the kick. She whirled around and grabbed his wrist. Eighteen started spinning Turles around and released him. She let gravity take over and the Saiyan was launched away.
Turles stopped himself by using his ki and turned around again. The man powered up and started throwing ki-blasts in her way. Eighteen smiled as she avoided the blasts without showing any trouble. Eighteen jumped up to avoid a blast and Turles appeared behind her. He locked his arms under her armpits and held her tight. The man smirked as he applied more pressure and Eighteen growled in pain.
He didn't see her boot coming though. She pushed her leg up and kicked him straight in the face. Turles placed a hand on his face as she floated forwards to get away from him. Vegeta glanced sideways. "She still isn't using her full power, is she?" Vegeta asked Gohan. The boy shook his head as answer. "Good thing Turles isn't either."
They watched as the two warriors disappeared from their sight to reappear higher in the sky. They disappeared and reappeared on the ground. Turles was punching Eighteen high in the air and a second later Eighteen was trying to land a punch on Turles near the large mountain on their right.
Several minutes later Turles was already panting. Eighteen hardly seemed to have a scratch while Turles was sporting a black eye and several small wounds spread over his body. The man frowned as he tried to land another punch on her cheek. Eighteen grabbed his fist and made him stretch his arm. She then moved both her arm and leg near Turles's arm and slammed both limbs against his arm. The man screamed as he felt his bones crack under the force. She whirled around in the air and kicked Turles to the ground. The man landed with a large crash.
Vegeta growled. "This is it." He said as he cracked his knuckles. "It's time we show them what it means to mess with us."
Katy looked down and bit her lip. "Do you think he is going to be alright?" She asked worriedly.
"He'll be fine." Gohan answered shortly. "What do you say we make it a double?" Gohan yelled at Eighteen. "Two of us against you two."
Eighteen and Seventeen shrugged. "It's fine by me." Seventeen answered. "Who are going to fight us?"
"I haven't been training for nothing." Raditz said as he floated closer.
"You'll get your chance against Freeza and the Ginyu Force." Vegeta answered. "Half-breed and I will take care of this." He continued. Gohan nodded as he powered up too. "Show them your new power, half-breed." Vegeta said with a smirk.
Gohan grinned as he continued to power up. The others watched in amazement as Gohan pushed his strength right into the super Saiyan level. Gohan's short hair turned into the golden shade as his turquoise eyes were narrowed. Turles gasped. "You can control it?" Nappa yelled.
"Is that so strange?" Trunks asked as he raised an eyebrow. The others looked in his way. "I can control it too." He continued. They all widened their eyes as Trunks changed into a super Saiyan before their eyes. His turquoise eyes widened a bit surprised at their amazed looks.
"That boy is from the future, right?" Gohan sent to Vegeta through a mental connection. "He has to have Saiyan blood or otherwise he couldn't transform into a super Saiyan. He told us the only surviving Saiyans on planet Earth were you and I. So he has to be either yours or mine."
Vegeta crossed his arms and glared at the boy from the future. "He said you were his mentor. Does that mean you are not the father?"
"Maybe he just said that because he wanted to let us think I'm not his father." Gohan thought back. Vegeta shrugged.
"I think you would probably be too young. He said the androids came earlier in his time than here. So you would have been very young." Vegeta thought back.
Gohan gave a small smirk. "It's like you want him to be yours."
"It's nice to know that everyone I take under my wing will transform eventually..." Vegeta shook his head and frowned as Gohan felt a hint of annoyance coming from him. The boy raised an eyebrow. That last thought was definitely not meant to be sent out.
"Fine." Vegeta said. "You and half-breed can fight them. I'm not a super Saiyan so I'm expendable." Vegeta floated back.
Trunks shrugged. "Fine." He answered as he pulled off his jacket.
Gohan nodded as he eyed the boy next to him. "It's strange to see a transformed Saiyan." Gohan observed out loud. "I've never really seen myself in that stage."
"I know. It's strange for me too." Trunks answered with a smirk. "Let's kick some android ass."
Gohan grinned back at him and they both sank into a fighting stance. Nappa leaned over to Raditz. "Do you feel outclassed too?" He muttered. Raditz sighed as answer as the warriors on the battlefield disappeared from their sight.
Vegeta looked up and the other warriors followed his line of sight. They noticed Gohan and android Seventeen were fighting high up the air while Android Eighteen and Trunks were exchanging punches on their right. It was hard for the warriors on the sidelines to keep up with the fighters. They saw Gohan landed on the ground and jumped up a second later.
Eighteen appeared right before them and she jumped up to avoid being swiped off her feet by Trunk's leg. The two warriors disappeared from their sight again.
Gohan caught Seventeen's punch and smirked. The boy pushed back Seventeen's fist before he used the same fist to pull Seventeen closer. He pushed his knee into Seventeen's stomach. The boy released the androids so he could recover from the attack.
Meanwhile Trunks was exchanging punches with Eighteen. He noticed the difference in strength with the androids from his time. This Eighteen seemed less strong than the Eighteen from his time. Then again, all the warriors from this time were weaker than their counterparts from his time. Goku wasn't a super Saiyan here. Vegeta wasn't either. Freeza was still alive but he hadn't come to Earth. Gohan had apparently just transformed so he wasn't as accustomed to the power as the Gohan from his time was at the age of 16. This whole timeline was strange to him.
But there was one thing he did know. This android could be destroyed by him. He just needed a little time to get the job done. The man dived under a punch and returned one to the android.
"Who is winning?" Katy whispered to Vegeta.
"We are." Vegeta answered shortly.
Gohan frowned in concentration. He knew he was doing a good job against the android but it was still a struggle to keep his immense power under control. The boy growled in pain when Seventeen pushed his fist into his stomach. The boy heaved over and spit out a handful of blood. Seventeen put his hands together above Gohan's head to slam him to the ground but Gohan anticipated this movement and he dived forwards. He slammed his head into Seventeen's stomach and the android was forced back. Gohan panted as he rubbed over his stomach. They had been fighting for a while now and Gohan was feeling the strain of the super Saiyan level on his body.
Gohan and Trunks switched their opponents. Seventeen was in close range and Trunks had just blasted Eighteen aside. Seventeen whirled around and attacked Trunks. The boy grabbed Seventeen's fist and spun it on his back. The android widened his eyes when Trunks held him tight with one hand. Trunks used his other hand to power up a ki-blast. Trunks smirked as he saw the fear in Seventeen's eyes. The boy sent the blast and android Seventeen was launched to the ground.
"Yeah!" Katy cheered. "Go Future Boy!" She punched up in the air.
Gohan was doing just as well in his fight. The half-saiyan caught a punch from Eighteen. He tried to hold the android while he punched her back but Eighteen grabbed his fist. The two warriors glared at each other as they tried to overpower each other. Gohan powered up even more and tried to keep control of it. He suddenly gasped for air as his transformation gave his body a boost. Gohan stumbled back and fell on his behind unceremoniously. "What the hell." He muttered as he shook his head.
"What's wrong?" Vegeta muttered as he narrowed his eyes at the two fighters.
Eighteen raised an eyebrow as she crossed his arms. "Are you okay?" She sneered. "Is it getting too much for you?"
Gohan frowned and got up. The half-saiyan powered up. "Let's end this." He snarled at Eighteen.
The android smirked. "Don't worry. You'll meet your end soon enough."
Gohan jumped in the air. Eighteen looked up and followed him. They continued to race up trying to overpower each other. Gohan raced past Eighteen and looked down. He flew down and slammed his fist down on her head. Eighteen was surprised by this attack and fell down. Gohan powered up and placed his hands together. The boy gathered a large amount of energy in his hands and waited until Eighteen was on the right distance. The boy gave roar and released the blast. "Gallic Gun!" He yelled as the blast was sent away.
Eighteen used her ki to stop herself and turned around. She only got time to widen her eyes.
Gohan was panting heavily as he lowered his body to the ground. The boy looked around and smirked when he noticed the android. Gohan landed on the ground near the female android. The half-saiyan eyed the android with satisfaction. Her entire left arm was ripped off from Gohan's blast. She had her eyes closed and was breathing heavily. Her skin was badly burned from the blast. Gohan chuckled. "So much for the all powerful androids." He sneered as he placed his foot on her knee and pushed down.
Android Eighteen opened her eyes and screamed in pain. "Oh look, robots can feel pain. Interesting." He said as he pulled back. Eighteen frowned and tried to send a blast but Gohan deflected it with ease. The boy aimed a blast at the android. "Goodbye, toaster." He sneered.
A hand closed itself around Gohan's hand forcing the ki-blast to disappear into nothing. Gohan looked up and frowned at the man in front of him. Goku tightened his grip on Gohan's hand when the boy tried to pull away. "No. Gohan. You don't have to kill her."
"What?" Gohan exclaimed. "Of course I have to kill her. She won't hesitate in killing us." Gohan snarled back. "Let me take care of her."
"It's okay to show mercy." Goku answered.
"Oh come on, father." Gohan snarled back as he pulled his hand free. "Showing mercy never got me anywhere. She'll just come back and destroy you when she gets the chance. If there is one thing that I learned during my time in the cold empire it is that mercy does not exist."
"You're not there anymore, Gohan. You don't have to be a murderer." Goku answered desperately.
Gohan stepped back and frowned. The boy extended his hand to the side as he tilted his head. Goku glanced sideways too and noticed Seventeen was sitting on his hands and knees. Trunks was floating near them. Gohan smirked as he sent a blast to the helpless android. The man noticed the attack too late and was hit head on. "No!" Goku yelled as he extended his arm to the android.
It was too late though. Seventeen's body was gone. "You're wrong." Gohan answered. "I definitely have to be a murderer." He sneered as his father looked back at him. Goku shook his head. "Now leave so I can take care of that robot."
"Gohan. No." Goku said strictly. "If you want to do this you're going to have to kill me first."
Gohan snorted. "Giving your life for a total stranger while you didn't even want to give your life for your own son." He snarled as he prepared another blast and aimed this one for his father. Goku widened his eyes. "Get out of the way."
"That's enough." Vegeta's hand curled around Gohan's shoulder and pulled him back. "We were here to fight the androids, not your father."
Gohan kept his piercing eyes on Goku for a few more seconds before he lowered his hand and stepped back. Vegeta guided Gohan to their comrades. The Saiyan prince gave one last look at Goku before he left. The others followed him. Goku sighed as he placed a hand on his forehead.
Krillin looked up at Goku. "Are you okay, Goku?" Krillin asked.
"What happened to my son?" Goku whispered as he watched the group of warriors disappear.
"Don't worry, Goku. He'll come around eventually." Krillin answered as he patted on Goku's shoulder. "Let's get her to Capsule Corp."
"You do that. She'll be out for a while. I'm going to take care of something." Goku placed two fingers on his forehead and frowned as he focused on a certain female.
Meanwhile Gohan landed on the ground by his house. "Why did I leave all my stuff here?" He complained out loud.
Katy smiled at him. "Because you thought you would come back here within a day." She answered. "You thought you were going to stay here."
"Maybe it's just not for us. Maybe this was all just a bad idea." Gohan answered with a sigh. "What was I thinking?"
"You've wanted to see your mother since you were taken. Just to make sure she was alright." Katy whispered. "She is fine."
"Yeah. They started a whole new family without me." Gohan muttered under his breath. Katy nudged him in the side with her elbow.
Gohan opened the window to his room and climbed in. The two teenagers quickly and silently gathered their stuff and both hoped they would be allowed to leave quietly. Katy was the first to climb out the window and Gohan followed her out. The moment they were planning on leaving, the front door opened and Chi-chi walked out. Her yellow dress with purple sash wrinkled as she stalked closer. "Gohan!" She said in a loud voice.
Gohan, Katy and their comrades all froze and looked at the source of the sound. Chi-chi stalked closer and placed her hands on her hips. "How dare you speak to your father like that! Even though we only got four years, we certainly didn't teach you to behave like that. And they shouldn't have taught you to disrespect your elders either." Chi-chi ranted as she frowned at her son. "Taking other people's lives might have been your job in the past but it certainly is not allowed on this planet, do you hear me?"
Gohan was staring at her with wide eyes. "So, what do you have to say for yourself?" Chi-chi asked threateningly. Gohan stared at her for a few seconds wondering why she seemed so threatening. He faced warriors stronger and scarier than her ranging from his own comrades to the Ginyu Force but still something in his own mother frightened him dearly right now.
"I'm not sorry." Gohan answered annoyed once he got his composure back. "Father won't understand what happened to me. I worked as a planet broker. I killed others so I could survive and he is wondering why I can't be happy and peaceful like I was when I was four. You shouldn't be asking me. You should be asking your idiotic husband what is wrong with him."
That earned him a backhand on the cheek. Chi-chi frowned at him as she pulled back. She stepped back and closed her eyes. "I'm sorry, Gohan. That was not my intention." She whispered.
Vegeta raised an eyebrow. "We were afraid he was going to take over but it seems like his own mother is taking our job." Vegeta sneered.
Chi-chi noticed movement behind Gohan and she growled in anger. "And you!" She said as she stalked passed Gohan and up to the adults. "You should have taught him better. You should have set a better example. You should be ashamed of yourself and your raising habits! Treating a child like that is not how we do it here on Earth, do you hear me?"
Vegeta was staring at her with slightly widened his eyes and he contemplated whether to praise her for her courage of to snap her neck for her behavior. The others seemed to be going through the same dilemma in their minds. Gohan scratched the back of his head. Chi-chi frowned at the four adults. "Well?"
Vegeta blinked and smirked. "I can see where half-breed got his temper." He sneered. The man turned his back on the female. "Be happy you're an important feature in half-breed's life, wench." He continued before he left off. The others reluctantly followed him. Gohan gave his mother one last glance but followed his comrades after that.
"Hey! Gohan! Come back here! You're grounded, do you hear me?" Chi-chi yelled. Gohan rolled his eyes and ignored her shouts. Chi-chi's hands fell to her side and she sighed. "What happened to our son, Goku?" She muttered tiredly.
"He left Earth twelve years ago." Goku answered as he watched them fly away. "Give him time."
**** DBZ **** DBZ ****
Gohan shifted a few leaves and branches and sighed. "I should start charging for this." Gohan muttered as he glanced at the seven beds he just created.
Vegeta smirked as he looked up. "Are we complaining?" He sneered.
Gohan looked over his shoulder. "It's not fair. I get punished for being the best at creating beds." He complained.
"You're such a whiner." Vegeta countered. "I didn't raise you to act like that."
Gohan snorted as he stepped closer. The boy eyed the camp they recently created. His six comrades were spread over the clearing all minding their own business. The boy smiled as he thought it seemed like just another evening on a mission. The only difference was that Katy and Justin were there too.
Katy was eying her boots with disdain thinking she should clean them soon. Gohan's hands landed on her shoulders and Katy looked up. Gohan leaned over to press a kiss on her lips. Katy smiled when he pulled away. "What do you say we find some privacy?" Gohan whispered in her ear.
Katy grinned back at him. "That's a great idea." She answered in a whisper before she got up.
"Where do you think you're going?" Vegeta asked as he raised an eyebrow. "Stay here. I want to spar."
"Come on, Vegeta. I haven't seen my girlfriend for a year." Gohan whined as he turned to his comrade.
"Don't think we didn't notice you two sneaking in one of those bedrooms on the lookout a few days ago." Vegeta answered with a frown. "Besides, do you have any protection? I remember giving you three condoms but I think you already wore those out."
Gohan opened his mouth while his brains were going over the facts but he closed it again. Katy looked up at him. "He's right." Gohan muttered as he looked down.
Nappa laughed. "That's going to be a dip in the cold river for both of you." He teased as he watched the two walk back to the branches.
Turles, however, was looking through the things in his personal box. The man grabbed something and got up. He stepped closer to Gohan. "Don't say I never helped you." He said as he pressed a package in Gohan's hand.
Gohan eyed the package containing three condoms and looked up. "You don't need these?" He asked.
"I'll buy something tomorrow." Turles answered. "I'll borrow some money from my dear brother."
Gohan smirked. "Rather you than me." He answered as he turned away from his comrades. The boy placed a hand on Katy's shoulder. "Let's go." The two teenagers left immediately.
**** DBZ **** DBZ ****
Gohan and Katy pulled away from a passionate kiss. Katy smiled seductively as she pushed her boyfriend in a lying position. She straddled his waist with her legs and littered his chest with small kisses. She slowly made her way down and pushed Gohan's uniform further down so his underwear was exposed. Gohan let her push off his uniform entirely before he pulled her back to his face level.
The two shared another kiss as Gohan's hands moved up to tug on her bra. Katy pushed his hand away. "So hasty." She teased as she pushed his hands to the ground. Gohan smirked up at her and eyed her face with appreciation. Her pink hair was a nice contrast to the dark blue sky. Stars were spread over the night sky and Gohan once more congratulated himself on choosing this particular spot. Several sheets were spread out on the ground and the couple was lying on the sheets.
Gohan's thoughts shot back to the real world when Katy's lips touched his sensitive skin once more. She tugged on his underwear and Gohan looked down in surprise. "Are you in a hurry?" He asked.
Katy looked up. "No. Why?"
"Well, you're already progressing to the final stage. You're going quite fast." Gohan answered as he leaned on his elbows.
"Who says I'm already at the final stage?" Katy asked. "I'm still in a playful mood."
"Then what are you going to do?" Gohan asked as he watched her pull his boxers down.
Katy raised an eyebrow at him. Gohan shook his head. "No. Let's just fool around a little bit more." Gohan said as he grabbed her wrist and pulled her up again.
"What is so wrong with it? You're stopping me every time." Katy complained as she allowed Gohan to pull her up again.
"It's degrading."
"You can give me pleasure." Katy shot back as she frowned at her boyfriend.
"That's different."
"No. It's not. Gohan, I know what your opinion about that is but it's not like what happened to you. You're not forcing me to do this. I want to do it." Katy answered with a smile. "Don't worry."
Gohan sighed as she pushed him back down again. "Katy. I …" Katy placed her finger on his lips.
"I'll stop if you want me to." She whispered as she shifted back down again. Gohan closed his eyes as he recalled the conversations he had with Justin in the Time Chamber. 'I should try to forget about everything that happened in the past. It's irrelevant.'
**** DBZ **** DBZ ****
"Help!" Gohan yelled as he landed on the ground where his comrades were. He was holding Katy in his arms. Her eyes were closed and she was wrapped in a large blue sheet. "Katy's hurt."
"What happened?" Turles asked as he ran closer.
"It's my fault. I didn't mean to do it. I didn't mean to push her so hard. I don't know what happened." Gohan rambled as he ran closer too.
"Lay her down here." Turles ordered as he knelt down. Gohan laid her down as gently as he could. Turles immediately started examining the large gash in the back of her head. Katy blinked sleepily and her eyes seemed distant.
Gohan stepped away from them and placed two hands on his head. Vegeta handed him a sheet and Gohan wrapped it around his half-naked body. Gohan sighed as he turned around again. Turles treated Katy's wound without any comment. "She's going to be fine." Turles said as he looked up. Gohan was now dressed in a uniform and armor with a brown stomach area and brown shoulder bands.
"What happened?" Nappa sneered. "Did you hit her head against the ground during climax?" Nappa crudely joked.
Gohan didn't seem to hear this taunt and he got up. "I'll go get her clothes." Gohan muttered as he got up and flew away.
The half-saiyan was back at the clearing within minutes and gathered the sheets that were spread around on the ground. The boy sighed as his eyes moved to a bunch of trees on the right. Vegeta landed on the ground too and followed Gohan's line of sight. He noticed several fallen and snapped trees like a heavy force had forced them into this submissive position.
"What happened?" Vegeta asked as Gohan started gathering Katy's clothing. The boy ignored his question for the moment as he grabbed Katy's armor. Vegeta appeared next to him. "How many times have I told you not to ignore my questions?" Vegeta asked.
"Not now, Vegeta." Gohan answered shortly. Vegeta placed a hand on Gohan's shoulder and pushed him in a sitting position. Gohan hid his face behind his hands. Vegeta eyed the half-saiyan thoughtfully.
"Do I have to keep staring at you or are you going to speak up?" Vegeta asked after a few minutes.
"I messed up." Gohan answered with sigh.
"Thanks for stating the obvious." Vegeta answered as he crossed his arms. "What did you do?"
"Nothing." Gohan snarled back. "It's none of your…"Gohan closed his eyes and pressed his lips together to keep himself from saying the particular sentence that could really fire Vegeta up when it came to secrets.
"I've made you afraid of that sentence, didn't I?" Vegeta sneered with a smirk. Gohan placed a hand on his forehead and sighed again. "Now tell me what happened."
"I was too rough with her, okay?" Gohan snarled back.
Vegeta placed his hands on the ground behind him and leaned on them. "If you would have been any other Saiyan I would have believed that explanation." Vegeta answered.
"I don't know what happened. I just… Katy… I can't…" Gohan closed his mouth. "Katy said something and it reminded me of something Zarbon said in the dungeon." Gohan closed his eyes as the memory shot through his mind.
Katy smiled as she laid her head down on Gohan's chest. "I love you." She whispered. Gohan smiled and wrapped her arm around her shoulders. Katy hesitated as her hand gently caressed the naked skin on Gohan's chest. "You're not as tensed as you used to be." She continued. Gohan's smiled faded as his eyes studied the sky. "Do you think you can ever … like it?" Katy's eyes moved up.
Gohan closed his eyes. "Katy. I. It's not like I don't like it. I love it. Trust me." Gohan answered as he eyed his girlfriend.
"I know. You're just not like you were the first time." Katy answered with a sigh.
"In a rush?" Gohan sneered.
"No. You were passionate." Katy said as she leaned on her elbow so she could look up at him. Gohan's hand was tangled in her hair. Her eyes studied Gohan's face as she paused. "You didn't flinch."
"Give it time." Gohan answered. "Do you want to get back to the others?"
"No." Katy laid down again. Her hand pulled up the sheet that was spread over them. "Let's just stay here for a while. Together." She said as she looked up. Gohan shifted so he could lie until the sheet covered him entirely. Katy sighed. "I hope you will be less tensed next time. Maybe one day, you'll eventually enjoy it." She whispered.
Gohan didn't even get time to answer as a flash of fiery green eyes appeared in his memory. He remembered how the hands scratched into his skin as he groaned in pain. "You are enjoying this, aren't you monkey boy? I know you are." A voice breathed into his ear.
Gohan blinked and shook his head to get the flashback out of his mind. The boy opened his eyes and saw the hansom face of Zarbon looking down at him. "What's wrong?" Gohan blinked and pushed Zarbon away with his energy. It was only seconds later that Gohan remembered Zarbon was already dead and he got up to find Katy's body smashed into several trees. She was lying against a large rock with her head and her eyes were closed. Gohan ran closer and pushed his hand under her head to help her up. He then noticed the blood slowly trickling down his hand…
"It was like I was back there again. I almost felt his breath on my skin. I panicked and I just handled without thinking. That's when I pushed her away. Her guard was down. She wasn't expecting a fight." Gohan said worriedly. "How could I be so stupid?"
"Half-breed. It sounds like a mistake."Vegeta answered with a frown. "It's not like you were planning on hurting her like that. She'll understand."
"I know she will forgive me but she won't forget it. She'll keep her guard up from now on. I don't want to have a relationship based on fear." Gohan answered as he looked up at the sky. "How can I face her after this?" He asked out loud.
"Very easily. You'll just join me on my way back. She won't be mad. She's an annoyingly sweet person." Vegeta sneered as he got up. The man extended a hand to his comrade. "Don't worry about it. She will survive and probably yell at you for a while. After that she will forgive you and probably force you to make it up with her by doing something stupid like going on a date or something." Vegeta said.
Gohan grabbed Vegeta's offered hand and was pulled up. The half-saiyan looked down sadly. "Hey, I was right last time, wasn't I?" Vegeta asked with a smirk.
Gohan grinned back at him. "Yes. You were." He answered with a nod.
Vegeta placed a hand on Gohan's shoulder. "It's okay to think about the things that happened in the dungeon. You can't bottle it up. Evidently, things like this will happen if you do. If you want to talk, I'll be here." Vegeta said with a nod.
"Thanks." Gohan answered as his tail lashed behind him. Vegeta rolled his eyes and turned away from him.
"That's how we can always be sure you are your father's son." He countered. Gohan pulled a face as he followed the full-blooded Saiyan.
"You know, I was thinking." Gohan said as he forced his body to fly next to Vegeta. "Trunks told about what happened in his timeline. Your future version and my future version didn't really seem to get along well."Gohan said thoughtfully. Vegeta grunted as response. "It just seems like such a waste. I learned so many useful things from you."
"You don't know how it really was. That boy said he thought our relationship was bad because your future version probably told him so. Maybe your future version just didn't want him to know how it really was." Vegeta reasoned.
"Maybe…" Gohan muttered thoughtfully. "It just seems sad."Gohan continued.
"I'm certain it was a choice both your version and my version made." Vegeta answered with a shrug. "The history between us is different from the history between them. Here you didn't have a choice and you had to live with me but in that timeline you could choose to avoid me and I probably chose to ignore you." Gohan nodded as answer and decided to leave the conversation at that.
The following days Gohan tried to make up with Katy but she was acting wary around him. It wasn't like she was angry at him but she disliked the fact that Gohan would never open up around her. She decided to give him the silent treatment until he would give in.
Gohan didn't know how to please her so he avoided her and thus the cold war continued. The four full-blooded Saiyans decided not to meddle with their argument.
One morning Turles walked up to Gohan while the half-saiyan was pulling on his white boots. Katy was sitting at the edge of the river. She was cleaning the dishes while singing a tune she'd learned on her planet. "That's what you get when you give a female a boring chore." Turles said as he appeared next to the half-saiyan. "She starts singing. If that is what this annoying sound is called." Turles gave a short glance at the female.
Gohan smirked. "It's not like it's terrible to hear." Gohan answered as he looked up. The boy finished pulling on his boot and got up.
"Still." Turles answered shortly. "She doesn't have to do it. You don't see us singing, do you?"
Gohan chuckled at the image that appeared in his mind. "Thank Kami for that." He sneered as he placed his hands on his hips. "Are you in for a little match?"
"Well…Actually. I want to spend a few months in the Time Chamber with you." Turles answered with a nod. "It's not fair that Vegeta could go in with you and I didn't. I want an uninterrupted training session." Turles clenched his fists.
Gohan tilted his head. "Sure. I can only stay for about five or six months, though. Father said we could only stay in there for two years total." Gohan answered.
Turles nodded. "Five months is fine." He said as he lifted off the ground.
"We need to tell the others." Gohan yelled at him.
"They already know." Turles yelled back. Gohan raised an eyebrow and followed his uncle. They landed on the lookout twenty minutes later and immediately made their way to the Time chamber. Gohan wondered if they could just enter the chamber without asking for permission but decided he didn't really care.
Turles opened the door and motioned for Gohan to get in. "You can go first." Turles said. Gohan shrugged and walked inside. He eyed the familiar surroundings. The two beds at the right side and the door to the bathroom on the left. Gohan's eyes moved to the large whiteness in front of him.
"How long will it take before you close the door, Turles?" Gohan asked as he turned around. The person who closed the door was not who he expected though.
Standing next to the door was Goku. The man frowned and he spread out his hands as he moved in front of the door. Gohan frowned. "What the hell is going on here?"
