*disclaimer i own nothing, not even the popular game that is mentioned at the beginning of the chapter. i wish lol but i dont.
The next couple of weeks continued to look up for me however I remained as serious as ever when I went to stalk the Saiyan prince. Piccolo would come with me sometimes however as I was doing better with being away from him, he was taking contracts again. I totally felt like we were the group of assassins from that game Trunks was always playing where the main character kills dragons. 'The Dark Brotherhood', it was called. Snorting to myself, I stayed outside the brown bungalow that Vegeta had gone to visit again. This was interesting, because it was the third weekend in a row that Vegeta had come here. It was time to report to Raditz.
I slowly sunk back into the shadows as they grew longer and darker in the coming night. I took off after making sure I wasn't being followed and was on my way home before what sounded like a rocket was heard whistling towards me. Instinctively, I threw up a shield barrier and something bounced off it hard, as I disappeared. Breathing heavily, I reappeared on my balcony and hurried inside, closing the curtains and locking all the doors and windows in one movement from my hand.
"Trunks?" I called out into the dark house. Something stirred on the couch and a muffled 'uh?' came from beneath a pile of blankets. I breathed a sigh of relief. Since I had been feeling better I'd started training again and knew I could take someone on if they threatened my pack in my own home. I was about to move over to him when the world shook around us. Trunks sat up with difficulty, looking around in confusion.
"Gohan, what's going on?"
"I'm not sure," I told him grimly. It would be my job to get him out of here if something happened, and pretty soon people started appearing in our house; Goten, Raditz, and Piccolo. We'd all learned this technique of 'disappear/reappear' from Raditz, surprisingly enough, and it had turned out immensely useful.
"Someone's summoned the dragon," uttered Piccolo, and I glanced over at him and a slight gasp escaped me; he looked fucking pissed.
"Shit." I muttered, then calmed down once the shaking of the house had stopped.
"I thought our people had control of the DragonBalls?" I turned on my mate, and he regarded me through a snarl.
"I surely hope you're not insinuating that I had something to do with this, Gohan Daimao," he used my new last name and I crossed my arms.
"Not at all, Mister Piccolo," I leered back at him. "Only that we're supposed to be in control of them."
"We had the majority, but a thief broke in to headquarters a few days ago and took them." Suddenly, I yelped in surprise and pain as a hot poker-like fire ran down my back to where my tail scar was. Goten also stood up from comforting Trunks and freaked out similarly; our tails were growing back!
"What in the actual fuck is going on?" I wanted to punch something, but was saved the pain to my fist at a light knocking on the door. I pushed past Piccolo to go open it, and he growled at me and tried snatching my arm back but I was too slippery for him.
Looking through the peephole, I sighed in relief as I saw Bulla, Anthora, and a very confused Broly standing out there. Eh? What were they doing here? I opened it slowly, and Bulla pushed past me impatiently.
"Trunks? Are you ok?" she immediately rang out in crystal clear worried sister tones. I heard his muffled voice reply something as I let her mate and Broly inside. Anthora went into the living room to check on Trunks, her witches stare already brewing so she could See him and check on the babies. Pausing, she looked at me and smiled, but not before Broly pulled me into a hug.
"What? Huh-Broly, what's-"
"Gohan, you have your tail!" he exclaimed. I nodded, confused for a moment, before realizing that he must have come to see me and Goten if our father's tail had suddenly come back too. His pretty brown eyes roamed the faces of everyone there for a moment before the power went out. Swearing, I moved through the house towards the breaker panel, flipping the switches back on and wincing slightly when I got a slight shock.
"Ow, shit!" I hissed to myself and looked around as the lights flickered and then came back on. My tail wrapped itself around my waist and I looked down at it, chagrinned. When I walked back into the living room I made eye contact with Raditz and pulled him over to the side while the others were all talking excitedly about this new turn of events.
"I have information that concerns you," I told him, and he nodded, intrigued. I went on.
"It seems our Prince has a special lover that he's been visiting each weekend for a month. What a shame it would be if something were to…happen to him." I muttered casually, and I saw his eyes crinkle behind his skull mask.
"Well done. You'll help with the extraction of course? With this, this will be immense leverage to use against CC and the Prince." He muttered, and we shook hands once I promised to show him where the house was and meet him there before the Prince got there the next day. I noticed Piccolo glaring in my direction, and raised a brow haughtily in his direction with my arms folded over my chest. I unraveled my tail and flicked the tip in his direction, then stalked past him into our room. We had another room connecting ours that we hadn't used until recently and we'd transformed it into somewhat of a training room. There were punching bags hanging up and mats on the floor, plus some other things that I was tinkering with. I was feeling my oats enough to goad him into an argument since he'd announced to the world what we'd gone and done earlier that week: we'd made it official through his clan that I was his, utterly and completely. I just hadn't told Goten or Trunks yet.
I smirked when I heard our bedroom door shut, and then he came into the training room where I was leaning against a wall, looking out the tall floor-to-ceiling windows that encompassed one entire section of wall.
"Do you have a deathwish?" he stalked over to me rigidly, and I curled my lip at him, knowing it would enrage him.
"Well, I am Gohan Daimao, there's obviously something wrong with me," I bantered back, and as he reached out to pin me down, I leapt back out of his reach. I stuck my tongue out at him, and giggled when he growled and lunged for me again.
"This isn't funny, Gohan!" he warned, and I blew a raspberry at him. I needed to blow off steam from the stress from earlier, and what better way than a friendly spar with my lover? Besides, I had something important I wanted to tell him that would trump anything that he had to say.
"Oh yeah? I think it's hilarious seeing you try to catch me," I sauntered away from him, my steps light and my tone flat. He threw a fist out and I dodged, and then it was on; we started sparring and I gasped when the flat of his hand pushed my shoulder out of place. I glared at him before gritting my teeth and ramming it into a wall, resetting it, and launched myself at him. He wasn't prepared for an aerial attack, and so my knees slammed into his chest and sent him flying backwards, to which he stayed put once I landed on top of him, straddling his chest, my hands shooting forward to pin his arms down. Growling, he rolled over and pinned me beneath him, and I moaned at the sudden change of events. He looked down at me startled, and pushed my shirt up to my chest, placing the flat of his hand in the center.
"W-wait!" I said, suddenly afraid, and he paused, regarding me like a predator does its prey.
"Why?" he narrowed his eyes at me, expecting some trick, and then I realized he hadn't been play fighting, he'd been doing it for real. I paled when I realized it, thinking he knew I wasn't being serious.
"Because, I need you to calm down and listen for a second, I have something important to say," I panted out, my eyes wide in shock. He took a moment to calm down and then let me sit up, my shirt falling back down and my tail wrapping itself around my stomach protectively.
"I'm pregnant."
