*Chapter 13*
Lelia had mentioned to Black that Bulma could help set up everything. That they could also get her to do the announcements.
"But what about joining us with the handfasting?" Lelia quizzed.
"Leave that to me, my Enchantress." Black assured.
"I guess now, we need to go ask Bulma for that favor?" Lelia suggested.
Black held out his hand, in doing so she placed hers into his.
Once Black, Lelia and Daxton arrived at the Capsule Corporation and with still at hold, Black used his Instant Transmission to get to Bulma.
"AHH!" Bulma shrieked, started and expressed the following. "You and Goku! I swear! Sheesh!" She said, as she settled her hand on her heart.
"Well actually that-" Black was about to say.
Bulma held out her hand to desist his sentence.
"Don't even!" She remarked.
"Hey Bulma, I-we have a request for you?" Lelia offered, as she apprehend the tension in the room.
"What's that?"
"Could you be our coordinator for our handfasting celebration?"
"You're guys are- I mean-sure...But you know he's-" Bulma disclosed, as she glanced at Black, her nerves still uneasy at close proximity.
"What?" Lelia exhorted.
Bulma eyed at their hands, which were entangled with one another.
"Oh-wow! Never thought I would see that!" Bulma pointed out.
"Huh?"
"Nothing! Sure-But-Um-Where's the baby?" Bulma questioned, concerned since Lelia didn't have a swollen belly.
Black and Lelia smiled at one another, and then at Bulma. Thereafter, they stepped to the opposite side and revealed a young man that had stood behind them.
"What the-How? Never-mind." Bulma attempted. Immediately, she stared at the man in front of her.
"Hello! My name is Daxton. Nice to meet you!" Daxton replied, and smirked-his father's known smile.
"Nah, that's not creepy at all!" Bulma murmured to herself.
Bulma noted that not only did the boy have his father's features, but had Lelia's as well.
'Bet his power is outstanding!' Bulma thought to herself.
"Nice to meet you, Daxton. I'm Bulma. Such pleasant manners he has Lelia!" Bulma claimed, as they shook hands.
"I didn't teach him those, Black did," Lelia commented.
"It's important to present formalities," Black stated.
"Oh, wow!" Bulma reacted, surprised.
In return, Black bestowed a smirk.
"Oh, boy!"
At that moment, Vegeta walked in.
"Bulma! Where's the-" he was about to say, but ceased in his tracks and added. "Why in the hell is he here? It's bad enough I have to deal with the real Kakarot, now I have to deal with his stunt double, too?!"
"Hi, Vegeta!" Lelia voiced.
Vegeta nodded in her direction and the appearance of the teenage boy caught his attention.
"Who's this?"
"That's Daxton."
"Daxton?"
"Black's and my son."
"Wait-what?!"
"You remember what I said months ago, about what I was carrying at that time?"
"Yes."
"Well, because of those traits he was able to grow faster than human babies.
"Tch. Who's side is he on?" Vegeta splurged out, as he sensed the boy's massive energy.
Daxton cleared his throat loudly, and stood away from being propped against the wall. He uttered the assertion. "Well, Mr. Vegeta-Sir! If you are dying to find out, let's settle this in a sparring session?!"
"You dare challenge me, the Prince Of All The Saiyans! I see the part of you that is Saiyan yearns this scuffle. Boy, you have no idea who you are dealing with!"
"Neither do you," Daxton responded, smugly.
"VEGETA!" Bulma warned.
Lelia strolled to her son and enquired the sequence. "Daxton, son, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Let him! I want to see what he is made of. Don't worry, Lelia. I will go easy on him-this time!"
Lelia whipped around to Vegeta and said the following, "It's not him that I am concerned about."
She veered back to her son. "Think about, Daxton. He has a family. Be gentle."
"What-huh?" Vegeta uttered out. This made Black chuckled out loud.
"Alright, mom." Daxton confirmed that he understood.
Daxton stepped towards his opponent. In riposte, Vegeta smirked at the boy. In addition, he began to power up to Super Saiyan. The boy stood, waiting.
Afterwards, Vegeta went straight in for a punch, where at that moment, Daxton blocked it.
The boy proceeded the service by coming in and landing a hit in Vegeta's stomach. In doing so, he clutched his abdomen.
"Whhaat?"
"I could see your movements, before you could do it. Which is odd, because I thought all Sayians could do this?!" Daxon acknowledged.
"Your son is so fast!" Bulma emphasized.
"Yeah, he can be quicker than his father at times."
"LELIA! Don't tell these mortals our secrets!"
"These mortals are my friends!"
Black gave her a stern expression.
The battle commenced, each one landing a blow to the other. At the last impact the two shared a grimace to one another.
"All right that's enough!" Lelia instructed, wisely.
"But mom!"
"DAXTON!
Through heavy breathing, Vegeta spoke. "That boy of yours will make a strong warrior one day."
Before long, Vegeta glanced at the boy, " Keep practicing!" With that he walked off.
Bulma implied that she would invite the rest of the gang. Not sure who would come, given that they might have a grudge against Black. Lelia told her friend she understood, while Black let out the words.
"Ridicules mortals!"
"BLACK!"
"I apologize, my Enchantress."
"Never thought I would ever hear him say that word!" Bulma mumbled, baffled.
Lelia had informed Bulma that they lived in this timeline, but on a different planet.
"Oh, okay. Then, I have the perfect space ship!" Bulma expressed, in delight.
As she pushed a yellow button, a medium-size aircraft formed into their view.
The next day, Black had excused himself to take care of something.
~FLASHBACK~:
Black had asked a friend, another Supreme Kai, Kuno, a favor from him.
To unify Black and his Enchantress in a handfasting proceeding.
At first, the Supreme Kai of Alliance was skeptical. Considering the fact, he was informed by his friend that she was a witch.
"Don't they have their own priests to do this?" Kuno, The Supreme Kai of Alliance inquired.
"The priest we know-she knows, tried to kill her!" Black answered in disgust.
"OH! Why?"
"Kuno, who knows."
Kuno thought for a minute with his fingers on his chin and said.
"Sure, I'll do it."
~END OF FLASHBACK~
In a millisecond, Black appeared.
"And where have you been?" Lelia beseech, as she stirred the meal in the pan.
"I had to take care of something."
"What kind of something?! " Lelia asked, worried.
"It's esoteric."
"For who?"
Black snickered and next provided one of his many quirky smirks.
"Oh no! Black you promised! That you wouldn't! The day before our joining!" Lelia huffed.
Black turned away from her to see if he could pinpoint their son's location.
Finally, the special day that was planned had come forth.
The ritual was held at their new home in the backyard at night. The moon's light blanket over everything making it a lovely sight. However, more lighting was needed and thanks to Bulma's speedy thinking, it was added. Correspondingly, the tables, tents and chairs were set up for this occasion.
Once the guests were seated. Bulma came out to speak into her hands-free microphone.
"Welcome to this joining of two people from different worlds. The couple decided to do a handfasting. For the ones who may not know what this is. A handfasting is when hands are tied together to symbolize the binding of two lives. Now further due, I will let the Supreme Kai of Alliance take it from here."
The Supreme Kai of Alliance came in from nowhere, followed by Black; which was dressed in his normal attire.
In seconds, in a grayish orb, Lelia emerged at the start of the aisle. Yet again, Black was stunned at the beauty that stood inches before him.
Lelia had on a split tank top dress, where the top of the cloth showed the crinkle of her breasts. The material flowed past her shoulders and around her waist was a silver tribal design that was sewed into the dress, itself. The length of the long skirt came down to her ankles, but in the midst of the dress a slit was on each side; baring the skin of her legs as she moved.
Lelia closed her eyes in a swirl of light and changed the white dress into the color of ebony. Black smirked at his beautiful Enchantress, which made her knees slightly buckled. She stepped with her hands clasped tight together. The Supreme Kai of Alliance motioned for her to come forward.
Goku pressed the following. "I thought brides wore white in weddings?"
"In some weddings, yes. But look who's getting hitch so to say, " Master Roshi pointed out.
The Supreme Kai of Alliance put forward the supervention.
"We come today to witness two hearts as one. I must express that this will not be your normal ceremony. Let's proceed." The Supreme Kai of Alliance stated, nervously.
Lelia and Black held hands, as they spoke their so-called vows to one another.
Lelia: "Black, at first when we met. I won't lie. I did despise you. I only wanted to cease your existence from the pain you caused. But as I got to know you, the real you, we became friends. I understood the reasons for those actions. Later, we became lovers and I have not looked back or wanted anything different. You are my rock, my soulmate and I am here to stay by your side, as forever as your one and only Enchantress."
Black: "Lelia, my Enchantress, my love. The first time we met, I only wanted to get rid of you as I did with your species. But that first encounter we had, left me addled to how one human could cause this. I will admit it was nice to confide in you, as you had grown on me as well. As time went by, our friendship became strong, leaving us as lovers. Lelia, my love, my Enchantress, you will always be my world and you will always have my heart."
"Um..Wow! Anyways. The couple have more that they would like to share." The Supreme Kai of Alliance implied.
At that instant, Goku wished he had someone like Lelia. He scorned himself for even thinking as such when he had Chi-Chi.
Black took off his time ring and placed it carefully into Lelia's palm.
A sudden gasp was heard and someone interrogated.
"Did he just take off his time ring?"
"Yes," another voice answered.
Lelia studied Black's time ring. The same one that she had not seen him without, until now. A confused expression spread across her face.
"I thought-"
"You need something linked to humanity. Go on," Black ushered.
Lelia attained the ring and guided it on his right ring finger.
Thereupon, Black takes a ring out from his pocket.
"You found it!" She exclaimed. Lelia's ancestor ring that was lost for years. The silver ring had a rope-like pattern around the blue and greenish gem. On the sides of the ring was a type of swirl that branched upwards.
"Yes." Black affirmed, as he slipped it on her finger.
The Supreme Kai of Alliance speaks a speech of everlasting love and then tells them to remove their hands that were clasped together, leaving their knot material to be. Lelia waves her hand to send it into their home.
Lelia and Black stood side by side. As they wait for their son to bring the next item. Daxton comes forth with a small iron rod that is a symbol of the outline of a rose. He transferred it to his father.
Black used his energy to light the rod to a burning flame.
"You ready?" Black asked.
Lelia breathes in and then lets it out.
"Yes," she responded.
At that instant, Black placed the heated iron onto her wrist. In all attempts she tried not to say nor twitch, but failed.
Black kissed the mark he had just imprinted permanently on her skin.
Now, it was Black's turn. He rolled up his sleeve, exposing his bare skin.
Minutes later, Daxton was there with another different design iron prong. He handed it to his mother. This one consisted of a circle with a crescent on top, it was a symbol that meant horned gods.
Daxton mirrored his father's previous action with his ki and lit the iron bar; causing it to turn fervent.
"Ready?" Lelia asked her love.
"Yes."
In nanoseconds, Lelia positioned the hot iron rod onto his corium, burning the picture immutable onto his skin. Black's only response to this was a softened escaped shriek.
Subsequently, Lelia mimicked his enactment as he did before and kissed the impression on his flesh.
Thus, making the imprint onto their skin, forever being as one. The guest was shocked to see such an occurrence.
"Here's a song that Lelia would like to dedicate to her beloved. Followed by, the couple wanted to share something with you all." The Supreme Kai of Alliance mentioned.
Lelia stands with mic in hand as she waits for the music to play. Once the melody begins, she sings.
"You fascinated me."
"Cloaked in shadows and secrecy."
"The beauty of a broken angel."
"I ventured carefully."
"Afraid of what you thought I'd be."
"But pretty soon, I was entangled."
"You take me by the hand."
"I question who I am."
"Teach me how to fight."
"I'll show you how to win."
"You're my mortal flaw."
"And I'm your fatal sin."
"Let me feel the sting."
"The pain-"
"The burn-"
"Under my skin."
"Put me to the test."
"I'll prove that I'm strong."
"Won't let myself believe."
"That what we feel is wrong."
"I finally see what-"
"You knew was inside me-"
"All along."
"That behind this soft exterior-"
"Lies a warrior."
"My memory refused."
"To separate the lies from truth."
"And search the past-"
"My mind created."
"I kept on pushing through-"
"Standing resolute which you-"
"In equal measure-"
"Loved and hated."
"You take me by the hand."
"I'm seeing who I am."
"Teach me how to fight-"
"I'll show you how to win."
"You're my mortal flaw."
"And I'm your fatal sin."
"Let me feel the sting-"
"The pain-"
"The burn-"
"Under my skin."
"Put me to the test."
"I'll prove that I'm strong."
"Won't let myself believe."
"That what we feel is wrong."
"I finally see what-"
"You knew was inside me-"
"All along."
"That behind this soft exterior-"
"Lies a warrior."
"You take me by the hand."
"I'm sure of who I am."
"Teach me how to fight."
"I'll show you how to win."
"You're my mortal flaw-"
"And I'm your fatal sin."
"Let me feel the sting-"
"The pain-"
"The burn-"
"Under my skin."
"Put me to the test."
"I'll prove that I'm strong."
"Won't let myself believe."
"That what we feel is wrong."
"I finally see what-"
"You knew was inside me-"
"All along."
"That behind this soft exterior-"
"Lies a warrior."
"The pictures come to life."
"Wake in the dead of night."
"Open my eyes-"
"I must be dreaming."
"Clutch my pillow tight."
"Brace myself for the fight."
"I've heard that seeing-"
"Is believing."
"In this song, the couple wanted to show off their moves," The Supreme Kai of Alliance added.
When the music was performed, Lelia and Black started to move with the beat.
Shadows fall over my heart (Lelia and Black snapped their fingers, standing by one another.)
I blackout the moon
I wait for you to come around (Black smirks seductively at Lelia.)
You got me dancing in the dark
Dancing in the dark
I've closed my eyes
But I won't sleep tonight
Baby, you (Black holds out his hand to Lelia, in which she takes.)
Should come with me
I'll take you to the dark side
Me and you (Black wheeled Lelia's body around-)
You and me (-and into his chest.)
Do bad things in the night time (Lelia looked up at Black, in return he winked.)
Baby, you (Black twirls her aback-)
Should come with me (and dips her body, then rises her upright.)
And we can kill the lights, hit the lights (She quickly maneuvered one of her own.)
With a blackout, blackout
(Lelia puts her hands in the air in a zig-zag motion and moves them to the left and to the right.)
Hit the lights with a
Blackout, blackout, woo
Black bird, black moon
Black sky, black light
Black, everything black
Black heart
Black Keys, black diamonds
Black out, black, everything black
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything black (The couple danced side by side, mimicking the same dance moves.)
In a nocturnal state of mind
Children of the night (Lelia gestured herself with one movement from her hand.)
But it's the only way of life
This black hole's pulling me inside (Black stepped towards Lelia, his focus on her.)
Of this black heart, the black soul
Underneath this black, black sky
Baby, you (Lelia reached out her hand. In doing so, Black tightly clasped it.)
Should come with me (Swiftly, he spinned her body around.)
I'll take you to the dark side
Me and you (Black promptly kissed her hand.)
You and me (Once again, Black pulled Lelia close to him)
Do bad things in the night time (Her heartbeat raced with excitement.)
Baby, you
Should come with me
And we can kill the lights, hit the lights
With a blackout, blackout (Black entwice her away and at that second whirled her body.)
Hit the lights with a
Blackout, blackout, woo
Black bird, black moon
Black sky, black light
Black, everything black
Black heart
Black Keys, black diamonds
Black out, black, everything black (Yet again, they were in sync of movements as was before.)
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything black
Baby, you (Black lifts Lelia's body up in the air.)
Should come with me (While in the air, he pivoted her body.)
Me and you (Black brings her body down and close to his own.)
You and me (In a close embrace, both enfolded in with one another.)
Baby, you (Lelia and Black glazed into each other's eyes, lost in the moment.)
Should come with me (Black put his hand on her cheek, she closed her eyes to enjoy his touch.)
And we can kill the lights, hit the lights
With a blackout, blackout
Hit the lights with a
Blackout, blackout, woo
Black bird, black moon (they dance back and forth in front of one another)
Black sky, black light
Black, everything black
Black heart
Black Keys, black diamonds
Black out, black, everything black
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything
Black, everything, everything black
(As the last words were spoken, the two took off and danced side by side, until the song ended.)
After the last beat had strummed, Black wrapped his arms around Lelia and kissed her neck.
Goku noticed a familiar posture in her moves that he and Master Roshi's also did.
"Hey Master Roshi, did you see that stance that Lelia did earlier?"
"Yes, Goku I did. It doesn't surprise me, really!" The old Master replied with.
"How come?"
"Well...I knew Lelia way back. I knew her, because she was almost my student."
"Your student?"
"Yes. When I found out that she had magical-witch powers, I still trained her with what I could. I told her I couldn't help with the strengthening of her powers for I wasn't given with such, she understood. Hadn't seen her until now." Master Roshi revealed.
The guests began to leave and they would exclaim how happy they were for them.
Black and Lelia watched as their visitors departed. Black sneaked his arms around her from behind and whispered seductively in her ear.
"You know, I am craving something sweet that's also forbidden."
Lelia giggled, but at the same time shivered from the touch from his breath.
In the background, the song "Born to Be Yours," by Imagine Dragons rendered on.
