Chapter 12: Anger managment
A/N: Back again with another update, boy this chapter was planned on going one way then other things kinda happened. You know how it goes when you write. Ah well enough of my banter, lets get on with it.
Standing on the hillside that was still all but destroyed by her power, although she had no recollection of it. Kakarot had told her it was why she needed to be going to Aerutza to help cultivate her powers and allow herself to become a powerful sorceress. She looked at all the shattered trees and torn up ground and rocks that defied all logic. She couldn't haven't of possibly of done all of this and not remember it.
Her fingers trailed over the tree where it was broken as if a force has pushed it down until it broke in half. Her mind flickered as she there only flashes, she was atop Nimbus and then someone talked to her… after that point she didn't remember a thing just a white void until someone called out to her. It was so similar to when her father died, she just awoke to find the house having exploded in bits everywhere. Was that all because of her?
She had never felt special or powerful in all her life really, aside from her abnormal physical prowess for her size but her father had raised her to be as strong as an Ox just like himself. So what now all of a sudden made her such a gifted candidate. She hadn't the faintest clue on how magic or spells worked. She had only witnessed one sorcerer with interest in how he worked, he had tried explaining the concept of magic with her while on one of their many rides around but it was still all quite foreign to her.
Throughout the world their existed focus lines where magic could be drawn and bent allowing a growing mage a chance to tap freely into their powers allowing them to manipulate that type of element. One who was able to bend and replicate the intricacies of spell work whether it be an incantation or gesture that focused a magics abilities which was referred to as the Force. Force was the basic description of the where magic came from, the force was a power drawn from the environment with a variety of ways to drawing that power as well.
Goku was not one for the intricate nature of incantation as he preferred gestures which were weaker than their uttered counter parts also it would be hard to keep his pace for breathing and own physical stamina in check. Also talking gave away one's position when in a fist fight so it he thought of the practice as not worthwhile for himself. She had noticed his hand gestures each one a bending of a spell by merely creating the actions to draw upon the desired effect and that could be done with almost any limb, finger, hand or foot. Provided it was moved in the respectable location one could cast spells so long as their bodies held out, because while magic was a source that could be drawn from the environment, the body was a vessel that was a catalyst for it. There was only so many times one could use magic without draining themselves but the more adapt one was that could be hours to upwards of a day straight.
He had further elaborated on the fact that the four primary elements were all used, wind, earth, water, and fire the most powerful and by far most dangerous element. One might ask why fire being so strong because of one basic principle fire itself was at its base uncontrollable and powerful which made its allure to use its power a deadly one. For many who tried to use the power of fire would either be engulfed in flames or be driven to madness with their own strength.
That wasn't too say that all spells were limited by their elements, many could be used in a variety of ways, illusions of food, light, sound, and certain senses could also be created with the proper work. Chi-Chi remembered the awkward conversation where Goku had elaborated to her that when one could replicate the senses he meant all of them, that a powerful mage could manipulate the senses of the body to feel, sadness, joy, or any other emotions but he had also added blushing fervently, that a particular female sorceress had claimed that she could conjure the sensation of an orgasm without the need for any of the acts, a mildly disturbing thought but just an example of how palpable magic could be. The advent of Portals for teleportation although very dangerous had become increasingly more pronounced and stable.
Even further the ability to bridge the gap across great distances by magic crystals that allowed one to talk via a device called a megascope. It could create an astral projection of where the caster was allowing both sight and voice to be transferred from one location to another megascope which was an incredible development that many kings desired to have at their sides if possible. Removing the need for messengers, parchments, and loose lips save your own for transferring a message instantly. It was an incredible thought at the very least.
It was all so incredible to think about, and she had wondered for a few nights what she would do if she ever could be so powerful as to control magic like Goku did. Yet as the realization became more apparent to her as she was being to going to Aretuza where she would become a sorceress it all seemed disappointing. She was going to be there for a long time, the years alone would be a painful thing to endure she would be into her fifties by the time she would leave and then what?
Sighing she moved away from the tree and looked back to the water which had its slow flowing tide and the shine of the sun reflecting off it. This wasn't anything like she had pictured her little adventure going.
"You have been thinking a lot Chi-Chi. Just relax and don't be worried about Aretuza. It is for women, ran by women, I assure you that you will be fine." Kakarot's thick voice came as the dragon seemingly so quiet for a being so large walked from up the shallow hill rise below her. His massive frame moving with almost predatory finesse. Not a lumbering beast that belied his reptilian nature.
"I don't need to hear anything from you. You and I are no more. I am going because there is no other choice and being rid of you will be a huge benefit for it." She turned away from him, sticking her nose up and away.
She cared little for his thoughts, this was all his fault! Yes, she lusted after him as a man, and yes last night was a fantastic night being loved as woman, but that still would never reduce her anger for him. She was going to be finally rid of Kakarot and that was more than enough incentive to go along with his little game.
"Hurtful, you used to be so nice to me." He chuckled earning him a very unladylike snort in retort. He knew she would be bitter but it would take time for her to be able to forgive him, she'd understand in time. He was going to miss her dearly, he truly had loved her company and simple charm of being a friend. "Well before we leave I have to reveal one final thing to you, I can't keep her. They will follow my trail too easy, I shall have to remain as I am for most of my journeys for a while." Kakarot chirped up a sound that was hard to place between a squeak and clack of his teeth together.
Chi-Chi turned back her arms folded across his chest a bitter scowl on her face as the sound of a horse cried in the background. She caught sight of a flash of white and soft thudding of hooves across the ground as she watched what she would have correctly assumed to be Nimbus coming. Of course that would be wrong as a horse of pure white approached the dragon its mane to its tail was a brilliant white sheen.
Her jaw hit could have hit the ground as the Horse pranced in front of the dragon almost like a child not probably realizing that it was a giant leviathan! But that was not what stunned her, no it was the spiraled horn jutting out from its forehead with its brilliant blue eyes.
Rearing on its back legs it stomped the ground in front of the Golden monster which smiled, an awkward sight for his features. It moved so quickly as the dragon attempted to pat it but the horse, neigh Unicorn scampered away from his grasp almost laughing in joy.
"Its! No! You can't be!" Chi-Chi gawked as her arms and fierce expression all but faded as the White Unicorn trotted away from Kakarot and towards her bobbing its head up and down almost as if telling her yes.
"No it is. Nimbus is a Unicorn Chi-Chi she always has been. A little trickery removes his horn but since he will be yours I let you see her as she truly is. My final gift to you, Chi-Chi." Kakarot walked forwards as Nimbus nudged Chi-Chi's shoulder with his snout. "Pet her, she wants you too." He chuckled still smiling.
The poor girl was dumbstruck to say anything. She closed up her jaw as she brought up her hand to gently touch the unicorn's face its brilliant white coat and skin felt so smooth and soft watching as the blue eyes of the creature's head look down at her and soften at her expression neighing softly as she stroked the underside of the unicorn's muzzle and neck. "How?" She asked as the horse snorted but she kept petting her unable to do anything else.
"I rescued the small thing when it was injured, its mother was captured and this one went running through the forest nearly breaking its legs until I happened upon its cries while overhead. Poor girl was so frightened and crying I couldn't stop myself from plucking her up in my paws and taking her away until she was better. It was then I decided to raise her and keep her since she had no mother. It wasn't too difficult since she's telepathic and able to read thoughts, so she understood quite quickly that I would cause her no harm and enjoyed herself around me as I raised her into the beautiful mare she is today. Of course I'm also sure you wonder why she is white? Well Unicorns as they age change colors, she was a light blue when I found her and she shifted to yellow around me perhaps of what I was for a possible explanation. She was this way until yesterday after she ran away from you and being exposed to your magic which as a unicorn is able to sense caused her to change her color back to its natural state of pure white." Kakarot gently patted the little thing he had raised for years with his front paw. "So? Will you keep her?"
"I don't know what to say?" Chi-Chi slightly stammered as she just looked awestruck at the beautiful creature. "I can't imagine taking her, she's yours!" Her obvious anger and resentment having faded with such an offer.
"She's no ones. She chooses to stay with me and now she wishes to be with you, she will be a perfect companion for you in Aretuza. I'm sure many of the noble ladies there will have their own horses and prized stallions to flaunt and show about. In addition, if a sorcerer starts riding around on a white horse missing you from where we last were will be obvious to any spy. So my two options are to either let her go with you, or release her though as much as I will miss her presence she is free to nature and will never be bound to me." Kakarot pulled back sitting on his hind legs as Nimbus just remained in the girl's gentle touch.
As she simply petted the beautiful creature a thousand thoughts raced in her mind, though as they did Nimbus pulled back and looked at her. Its deep blue eyes calming her as she could feel the waves of calmness roll from it to her. The tightness and anxiety that she had been feeling became relaxed. The rapid beating and flustered heart also giving way to calmness as well.
"As I said," Kakarot interrupted his maw moving closer, just a foot from the two of them. "He is telepathic; he knows when your stressed or upset. He is the perfect companion for you." Drawing up on claw he brought Chi-Chi's hand to Nimbus's nose letting it set down atop the white flaring nostrils. "Now. Will you keep her?"
"Of course. I would love to have her." She spoke faster than she realized, there would have been no way she could turn this beautiful creature away. No matter who it belonged too or even if it was just a token gesture she had always enjoyed Nimbus, she was a fantastic horse then and even more wondrous as she looked upon the white mare in all her splendor. The spiraled horn protruding from its forehead was just even more amazing as she reached up to gently touch it expecting the horse to get startled and move it did not. It relaxed and let her touch it.
Kakarot remained close as he watched Chi-Chi's hand slowly touch the horn but only briefly as she went back to cradle the unicorn's face. Yes, she would have a loyal companion though Nimbus could not speak she was able to read her thoughts and subconscious allowing the creature to react appropriately to her instincts.
Though with a unicorn in her possession she would have an incredibly powerful and smart foe. He had made sure that nimbus while in the form of a horse would react like a horse and be skittish not roaming too far from her handler and parent. It also could provide Chi-Chi with necessary anti-venom as unicorn blood was all but resilient to poison and toxins and able to travel to dimensions beyond sight if the need required. Allowing it to use portals and traverse other planes in order to save Chi-Chi's life if need be. Before he had not allowed Nimbus to do so as it would reveal what his unicorn really was. A ship full of gold was not nearly as valuable as a Unicorn an all but extinct creature thought believed to by humans.
Though an underlying trait was a unicorn's immense dislike of elves, elves might possibly be behind the attacks on Chi-Chi. They had the most to hate about Chi-Chi's cursed blood and its power and its untrusting nature of one race would give Chi-Chi pause to trust them. He needed her to trust very little until he could finally reveal just what she was in time, but even then he still felt worried. She was still free to make her choices, but that would be awhile until that would be taking place. Hmm. He couldn't risk it later but for now he would let Chi-Chi get the much needed training from Aretuza while he would look for her pursuers and hopefully 'convince' them that she would not be an option for their plans.
"It is time Chi-Chi." Kakarot said breaking the silence as she looked at him with a slightly dipping frown. He hated seeing her upset with him, truly it hurt him on the inside but he could not undo what had happened.
She had blinked as the once massive golden dragon now all but flickered leaving only the man in a rider's cloak wearing equally dull brown traveling attire. Although she still recognized Goku's face underneath as he had some of his trademark spikes protruding from the sides of where his head was. "How? Did you do that?" Honestly she had never seen him just change, was it so simple for him?
"As a golden dragon I am able to assume any form I wish. Merely by thinking within reason of course. I can't become a woman obviously. That part of me cannot be changed, how I can do this is just how my kind have evolved. Blending in where no one realizes who or what we really are." He opened up his palm and focused forward into the open air as his mind concentrated on the school.
"Yes you did the last part very well." Casting him a glare but he didn't even notice so she went back to Nimbus who more than happily welcomed the attention.
It took maybe twenty seconds but he finally locked onto his location and then snapped his fingers creating a massive black and yellow swirling hole. Taking a step back he released a breath that he had been holding, "It is done, now let us go Portals are never the most stable of creations and can be unpredictable." He gestured to the portal which Chi-Chi and Nimbus moved towards.
She wasn't exactly thrilled at the sight as she saw the crackling energies, it didn't even look safe. "you first." She said eyeing him wearily of the mass of energy.
"Very well but do not make me wait long on the other side." He said without even a pause and walked forwards his frame all but enveloped in an instant.
Bracing herself she looked back at the unicorn which bobbed its head giving her a nudge on the shoulder. "alright here goes nothing." Closing her eyes she walked forwards and all but collapsed on the other side had an arm not caught her. She felt incredibly sick like she had just been thrown down a very long hill rolling and bouncing for several minutes. "That was horrible!" She coughed as her eyes stopped spinning and feeling the pressure underneath her stomach as she was being held up by Goku's arm which she growled at. "I don't need your help." She pushed down on his arm getting on her feet a bit wobbly but stood straight even if her mind was still spinning.
"My apologies." Goku said turning to Nimbus who was busy shaking off the cobwebs from the portal. Looking back he turned his attention to the land around him as they were just outside of Aretuza. It was a beautiful sight to behold as lying just a mile away was the school, the narrow bridge just a stone's throw away from where they had arrived. One might ask why not just teleport right there, that was not possible as the entire perimeter was guarded by anti-magic barrier from the bridge and around. No one could cast spells within its walls unless in designated areas but even still spell casting would be more difficult depending on what one was doing.
The flowing plains rolled into a lush green environment as the cliffs were almost sheer the dotting of trees approaching was a sight still familiar to this dragon. Even the small town several miles back remained just as pristine as it could be, the small community often intimidated by the local sorceresses had a small amount of peace even though the gaze of powerful spell casters were just down the road. They had a peaceful co-existence with at least several high quality establishments in a small manor for lodgings and winery that was often in high demand for many who practiced the arts here. The gold made from Aretuza was often spent here meaning one could have an affordable life as a merchant so long as they never insulted one of the sorceresses or one might find himself frozen or burnt alive for daring to mock such individuals.
Looking to the bridge made of carved stone, an ancient elven city once flourished here until humans came, now the place having not been managed by craftsmen was just the main island where the school was and the bridge, the surrounding expanse was smaller overrun buildings with foliage of nearly a hundred years. A ghost of what it once was, but it was still a beautiful setting none the less.
Knocking the dirt from his boots Goku looked back at Chi-Chi who had recovered well enough from her spell in the portal. "Climb atop Nimbus and we'll set off. I do hope we've arrived at a good time. Rectoress Margarita has quite a strict policy of initiates so please make a good impression upon her."
Pulling herself atop Nimbus she felt surprisingly comfortable in the saddle but as she looked at her unicorn it was now surprisingly missing its horn. She could probably guess Goku had done his little trick in hiding it though she pressed him with a question wanting to at least know something about this place. "So who is she?"
As they set about on a slow pace Goku tucked his hands behind his back as he walked. "Ah lady Margarita is quite the strict one but she is a fair woman. Her first concern is always her students and her school, she will do almost anything to make sure that both are properly cared for. She herself is a powerful enchantress and when I call her an enchantress she is by far the most beautiful woman you will ever meet. She would make most sculptures and goddesses pale in comparison to her, a side effect of her magical prowess." He chuckled knowing that many people, men in particular were struck in their feet by her. She had a knack for using her own impressive features and desires taken care of mostly of those by married men.
"What does that mean? She's prettier because she's able to use magic?" She had to raise her brow at that thought, Goku while a charming figure she couldn't believe one could simply make themselves prettier.
"Simply put yes that is how it goes, she's over a hundred years old but barely looks a day over twenty-five. Slowing aging and altering one's appearance is a specialty of hers. She is able to turn broken hunchback women and turn them into stunning beauties, though I'm sure lady Margarita was already a pretty woman before enhancing herself."
"I could use that type of magic?" She asked pondering such power.
"Would you need it?" He looked back at her over his shoulder.
"Since the only thing I attract is pigs, bandits, and dragons I would say so!" She snapped at him, though it was a compliment she didn't want to hear him complain about her changing her appearance like he could in a blink.
"Very well, but all of those things come at a cost Chi-Chi." He slowly looked back ignoring her glare at him as he walked.
"Like what?"
"You'll find out, best to let the rectoress explain that to you. It's not my position to go into her important topics of conversation with women, but let me ask you a question in return would you ever want to have a family?" His tone softened completely as he walked. "I mean would you enjoy being a mother or a wife. You did tell me back at the inn you would have preferred the later."
"Why are you asking me that question? Is there some kind of choice of being a wife or a sorceress? Because with how I see most women treated being a mage seems like a far better choice!"
"Interesting." He mused at her answer almost laughing.
"Was that a joke at my expense?"
"No, of course not. You just sound like many of the other girls I've seen come here. I would have expected your answer to be different." He drew back his hands adjusting his leather collar. It will be interesting, for what you say now might change or it might not. Perhaps you'll feel differently about the thought later. He should tell her but he knew this would be a conversation between her and the Rectoress eventually and Chi-Chi was still angry with him.
"Oh I see. Because-" She stopped as Goku held up his hand.
"That is enough of our bickering. I'm not making fun of you, I never have you just don't understand everything yet Chi-Chi. There's always a price for what we do." He looked at her stopping in the road his expression clearly frustrated and sad. He stopped on the side of the bridge that they had just began to cross looking down over the side to the rocky waters below. "You may never forgive me for what I did."
"I won't."
"I expected as such." He sighed as he gripped tightly the stone walls as the water splashed hard against the jagged rock formations below. It felt like how he did inside at this moment, he wanted to be honest and tell her the truth before they headed inside for him to possibly never see her again but no he was stuck fumbling around with what he should say again! "Would try to understand why I did all of this? I never wanted everything to become this hostile between the two of us. I wouldn't have imagined it a week ago."
"Gok-" Stopping herself, "No Kakaoroatever the fuck your name is, there is no excuse for what you did!" She growled slightly as she gripped the reins of the horse in her palms making the leather groan. "You lied to me, betrayed me and my feelings for you! Why couldn't you have just told me all of this from the start instead of doing this whole charade!?"
He hit the stone railing hard cracking some of the stone from it as his hand stung slightly. "You never would've believed me or ever trusted me. A golden dragon just walks into your inn to make you into a sorceress why would you even believe that you would consider that ever happening? You would have done what all humans do, either piss themselves, scream, or try and kill me or a combination of the three." She was going to have to make this difficult, why couldn't she just accept his reasons even if they were a lie.
"So being honest with someone is a burden then? You could have at any time in three months stepped aside and told me because I would've at least felt better about it then you pretending to be something you clearly aren't!" She screamed feeling a satisfaction as he winced from her stinging voice. "Just because you can cast magic, just because you're a stupid drago-"
"I am not a stupid dragon you damn human!" Kakarot roared from inside his human form making Chi-Chi and even Nimbus startle. "You don't have any idea what it's like to be me! You believe that I just walst around as I please doing whatever I want? Do you really think that I waste my time roaming around humans with the ever pleasant thought of having to deal with a horde of dumb drooling fools trying to kill me at the drop of a hat! Well I do not enjoy being a human! I am a Golden Dragon and I have done what I can to survive like all other beings do! If I have to lie and pretend just to live Chi-Chi! I am a monster to everyone including you! No one will accept me for whatever I am dammit." He slammed both of his fists down onto the wall. "You think that just because you're a human, that because you saw your father die that you can hold that over me? Well you want the truth from me then! Fine I'll tell you just who in the fuck I am!" He sneered ripping himself from the wall.
"I am one of three of my kind that I know about, I have a cousin Borch who travels around with two human little girls I raised before they decided to run off with him. I watched my mother choke and die in front of me after trying to bring back a meal for me when I was young! Would you like to know why she did? Because human's who have no care or concern for anything other than themselves decided that my mother was 'Oh so much of a threat!'" His words laced with sarcasm. "That they stuffed a cow full of poison and sent it in the direction of my mother's den who was in need of food to support her baby and upon returning with the meal I had to watch my mother spill her guts all over the ground in front of me. Her screams of agony as she died from the inside out drew the full attention of the lords who sent a hundred soldiers to find my sweet mother who took maybe a cow or two a month but never hurt or killed humans unless they provoked her. Would you like to know how it is to watch your mother be butchered all because she's a dragon and have her body carved into tiny pieces when you are unable to fly or even fend for yourself?"
He was fuming at the memory that she had to reawaken in him, she wanted to call him a stupid dragon? Him all because he deceived her a little there were a million worse things he could do but no this stupid human of course had to think herself so much greater! His hands shifted shapes one becoming a massive paw the size of his body with the massive claws. "I was found by another dragon who knew of my mother, he saved me taking care of me for few years as I learned how to adapt and survive in the world but then can you guess what fate befell him? Let me tell you! Humans! Yes, you guessed it more fucking humans! They brought a few mages and men and blew him literally of the sky as I was sleeping on the ground just hundreds of yards away. I watched the second person who cared for me explode from the inside! He wasn't a golden dragon he was a simple red dragon but even as dragons we care for each other, I don't look upon any of my other kind and see them as anything less than I." He slashed at the stone wall with his claws feeling no satisfaction as the long blades left an impression deep into the side before backhanding the section off. Watching it fall to the ground.
"So then I had to live alone, I made a trip to Zerrikania as a young stowaway until finding one my cousin's Borch who helped me a great deal in blending in better with humans. Until about ten years ago when Borch took my little Tea and Vea with him to go wondering around the northern realms doing gods knows what!" He let out a frustrated roar as his hand shifted back to its regular state and gripped his head trying his best to just unleash his pent up frustration, it had been building for a very, very long time. "I have been alone for more than a hundred years, simply sneaking around places trying to not be obvious. Too noticed because I will get the reaction that nearly killed me two nights ago after I tried to save you no less!" He pointed at Chi-Chi who still remained somewhat curiously silent as if seeing the real being for the first time. "Lord Edden nearly chopped off my head because I was a dragon! A dragon nothing more or less! I had to die, and almost all humans feel the same damn way about me, if I am seen kill it." He slammed his foot down into the stone as he growled in anger before looking up at Chi-Chi with disgust on his face.
"So now here I ask you? For the one little lie that I hid from you about not being a human tell me what did you see when you saw me for the first time in the cave when I looked down at you and talked to you as what I really am." He watched her own emotions flicker behind her eyes, because he knew what it was. "Yes that was it wasn't it? Fear? Afraid of me a dragon because I'm just a monster. No soul, no consciousness right? Despite all I told you about how good dragons were on the road you forgot all of it when you saw me in the flesh and admit it you were afraid of me! Admit it Chi-Chi!" He yelled at her, the vein on his forehead bulging as his hood had flung from his head his white canines grinding tight against his lower jaw.
"I…" She was a bit stunned, never had she ever seen him act like this. She was more frightened of this Goku than the dragon. "I was."
"Of course you were! Bravo Chi-Chi Bravo!" He clapped his hand together with a sneer and then spat on the ground with disgust. "It's the only thing human's can ever do, you are just afraid of everything that doesn't fit in the perfect bubble of your lives!"
Her own anger slowly boiled back, so what if she was afraid that would be normal reaction. "So what if I was? I got over it."
"Pah." He scoffed at that. "You won't ever get over it, because the only form you accept is this one! You barely looked at me as a dragon and I saw the contempt in your eyes when you did! You despise what I am and even through all of that I still looked out for you. I still thought well of you but now I get it! I get why you and I could never have worked because you will always be just a human! I don't care if I did love you because I don't want it anymore! I don't want you! I don't want anything from a selfish bitch!"
"You asshole!" She screamed jumped from the saddle as her hands tightened into fists. Forget trying to be reserved he had pushed her button once too many. "Selfish bitch? You call me selfish because I don't like the fact you're a fucking dragon! You lost your parents so did! You had a tough life so did I! There's nothing that makes anything you do better than me." She drew her fist back and swung for his face noting that he dodged it in a flash but aware of what he would do, she had felt it before as she caught herself and rolled as Goku swung for her neck. "I never betrayed you! I never lied to you the only thing I did was fall in love with you!" Her eyes felt a sting as she said those words as her bottom lip quivered and rushed him again and swung.
"You only love what you see! You don't care about what I am." He caught her wrists dragging them down as he saw her eyes fill up with tears. "I thought you were different! I thought you would be something better!" He stepped his foot between her legs and threw her behind him. Recovering as she landed on her feet skidding to a stop before rounding and kicked for his chest.
"I thought the same." She cried as she swung her eyes running with tears as she kicked him square knocking him backwards with a stagger. "You were kind, loving, sweet, and even tolerated me when I got drunk. You were everything I dreamed of until you had been lying to me the entire time!" She went for her uppercut her rage boiling over as her face red with frustration and sadness as but missed as Goku learned from her as well knocking her wrist to the side causing her to stumble and spin around as his arms clamped around her waist.
"I wanted you to trust me! That isn't a topic of conversation that I just bring up. Hey Chi, you know I'm a dragon lets go back and pretend that nothing changes!" He snarled a she struggled, her foot raising up and stomping down on his making him grit his teeth as his body surged with pain though he held firm.
"You would've at least tried! I could forgive you for that, but then you want to just act like this whole charade was not a big deal just because you see something in me!" She reared her leg forward attempting to swing backwards and catch Goku square in his lying ass crotch. He caught on quickly and swept her free leg sending them both slamming into the ground she scrapping up her arms and his face but it prevented a surely K.O. hit from her. "Get off me!"
"Are you done crying about one little lie?" His tone while still annoyed was somber, this fighting was going nowhere and he wasn't interested in hurting her or being hurt.
"A three month lie is not little you prick!" She flailed her legs barely catching his sides but they were little more than an annoyance.
"I thought it was you who said love overcame any obstacle so why can't you overcome me lying. Didn't you just admit that you did love me?" A change of tactics then, his tone shifting to playful as she hissed like an angered cat.
"Don't you even start with that! I was reading a ballad from the book and it never mentioned it dealing with dragons!" She tried to push herself up but Goku's larger frame kept her pinned, growling in irritation of him now going about playing one of his little word games.
"You made reference of it being a frog and a princess. A frog is a reptile like me." He remembered this conversation a bit. Shortly after they were traveling she had engrossed herself in reading the ballads from dandelion. His embellishments about love made Goku roll his eyes but Chi-Chi enjoyed them a great deal.
"Except the frog became a human at the end of the story because she loved him!" She managed to roll to her side allowing her to now firmly blast him in the shins who groaned painfully then caught her legs with his own.
"She loved the frog because he was a prince. So why couldn't she love a prince that was a frog it would be the same thing like me!"
She wriggled herself free again, Goku not leaving his shins open again pushed away as she got to her feet, she had barely reared back to try and strike him again when a portal tore itself just from their side and out stepped a figure.
"Oh of course it had to be you! My oh my, how have you been Goku? Or would prefer your old title of spiky haired idiot?"
Both parties stopped as a woman with blonde curls hanging around her shoulders stepped out, her dress a light green with red accents covering the tops of her breasts leaving just enough exposed to entice and leaving even less for the imagination. A golden necklace emblazoned with eight rune ornaments each the size of a coin hung around her neck. Her lips a ruby red more than a rose with a face that lacked any imperfection, her blazing blue eyes looked relieved if not slightly annoyed.
