Reach For The Stars

Chapter 8: Be Careful What You Wish For Part 1

(With Goku and Satsuki...Private Dining Booth)

Satsuki Kiryuin was never one to believe in the folly of religion. But if there was one thing she could have faith in, it was the sensation of heaven.

Literally and figuratively. Her white soaked panties are a testament to that belief. Her desire for the man below her was enticing even more as she was pressed up against him. Her lips were connected with his as his hands were on her waist.

Goku could feel her arms snake around his neck as her hips were grinding against his pelvic region in an up and down position. He had to admit that she did feel good pressed up against him. Sensations like this were never practical for him as his motivations were always focused on getting stronger and protecting the Universe from some constant threat or another.

After ten minutes they both pulled away breathless. They were both panting from the lack of oxygen and the rush of emotions that followed after. Satsuki was smirking down at him.

"I can see that my offer had unexpectedly expected results." She said moving her hips left and right feeling his growing hardness rubbing against her. Her wet panties and their clothed forms rubbing against one another increasing her desire for him each second.

The Saiyan raised his eyebrow at her. "You knew this was going to happen didn't you?"

The young heiress was playing with a lock of his hair. "Maybe?"

He chuckled and rubbed her back slowly while giving her another kiss. "So...tell me about yourself. What makes the great Satsuki Kiryuin tick?"

She shrugged as she still kept moving her hips, albeit at a slower pace. "There's not much to tell really. I grew up privileged and apart from the rest of the rabble. The only constant's I had in my life were my butler Soroi, the Four Generals, Ira Gamagori, Nonon, Uzu, and Hoka. There's also the matter of...my mother." She frowned at that part.

Seeing this as a chance to get some information about Ragyo, Goku decided to ask about her.

"Your mother...what is she like?" Goku asked with a well placed pique tone of interest.

Satsuki narrowed her eyes down at him.

"I'm just curious...how a woman could give birth to someone as beautiful as you. She must have some kind of interesting story." he replied.

She scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Flattery does not get anywhere with me. I wouldn't tolerate it if anyone else said that to me, but for you...I'll make an exception."

He chuckled. "What can I say I-

"Am a man of many talents." they both finished at the same time. They blinked at each other and shared a small, quiet laugh.

"Anyways my mother is...a complicated woman to say the least. I'm not entirely sure I have her figured out. Just when I think I do, she surprises me with the next thing going through her mind. Also if you do not know her name it is Ragyo Kiryuin." she said

"Ragyo Kiryuin huh? Sounds like I'll have to meet her sometime." Goku said purposely to gauge her reaction.

"I...would actually advise against that " Satsuki said with a minor hint of worry in her voice.

"Why is that?"

"Well...she's not exactly someone you would want to have...well...close to you. Growing up with her was not easy, but she did teach me everything I know. There's that."

Seeing the frustrated look on her face at the direction of the conversation, Goku rubbed her sides a few times to calm down.

"Alright. If it pleases you I won't go anywhere near your mother at all."

That caused a relieved smile to appear on her face and she kissed him deeply before picking up the pace with her hips. Chuckling at the eagerness of the girl above him, Goku decided to wrap her in a tight hug as his lips melded with hers. The Saiyan knew that his life was about to get interesting with her in it now. For now they both decided to enjoy being close together and basking in the warmth of another.

(2 hours later)

After enjoying their makeout session and just having casual conversation laying down on a restuarant floor...as strange as that is, Goku and Satsuki left the restaurant and went their separate ways. Before leaving, the young heiress leaned up and gave him a kiss, which he returned kindly. She then left with that same smirk and a sway of her hips that she knew he was looking at.

Shaking his head at today's events, Goku decided to head home for the day. Even though he didn't get much about Ragyo, The Saiyan realized that the only way he was going to get anywhere was if he paid a visit to the matriarch herself.

But that will have to wait another time. For now, he had to get home.

As he reached the front yard, he saw the form of one agitated Ryuko Matoi sitting there on his doorstep, tapping her foot impatiently. She was in her usual black and red outfit and her expression served to amuse the Saiyan.

He walked up to her and stopped right in front of her.

Her blue eyes snapped open and she looked up at him.

"Your late!" she screamed pointing a gloved finger at him. "What the hell took you so long that you had to keep me waiting six fucking hours!"

He smirked beneath his mask and looked down to the ground. Ryuko followed his gaze and her blue eyes widened in mortification...

Her panties were showing.

She squeaked and closed her legs all the while her face shined red like a tomato. She wanted to die of embarrasment right then and there. The kamui user whimpered in further shame as his masked face studied her body up and down.

She finally stood up on her feet. "H-Hey! S-stop doing that! You look like a pervert...and you didn't answer my question!"

The Saiyan chuckled. "Sorry I had some business to take care of around town." he moved past her and unlocked the door. He stepped inside and let her in. Ryuko stepped inside the capsule house and was honestly impressed.

"Woah" she said in awe looking around. The house was big for sure and it was filled with the latest technology and furniture money can buy. Whatever the Saiyan did in his spare time, he must have been getting paid a lot to be able to afford this.

Goku saw her looking around and chuckled. "All of this comes from a family friend. She's a genius. Her name's Bulma."

Ryuko turned around and looked at him with surprise. "No way! You know THE famous Bulma Briefs!? As in owner of Capsule Corporation!?"

"The one and only!" he smiled beneath his mask, seeing the look of wonder on her face. Secretly he was pleased to see it. Cute girl deserves to have a life without pain and suffering. The Saiyan God felt like he accomplished something today.

She whistled and grinned looking at everything once more before turning and looking to the saiyan. "So got anything to do fun around here?"

"Actually...there is something I want to ask you about." The grin still underneath his mask.

She tilted her head cutely. "What is it?"

"Would you like to start training in how to use Ki?"

"Like that...glowing light I saw in your memories?"

He nodded.

She grinned. "Hell yeah! I can't wait to start! But on one condition.."

"Which would be?"

"When we do start training soon could...could you take off your mask? It creeps me the hell out. It feels like it's staring into my soul or something. "

Goku wasn't surprised by what she said. The black cloak and mask were intenionally made that way to increase the intimidation factor. As much as Goku didn't like causing the girl in front of him any discomfort, it was necessary for him to keep this disguise. Nobody could know he was here. Not even his friends and family. As far as they knew, he had disappeared after ChiChi's death and wasn't seen or heard from since then.

Well that wasn't exactly true but, that wasn't exactly a lie either. After the 5 year gap with Golden Frieza's fight and Chi-Chi's death, The Saiyan actually left Earth and only came back for the events and major conflicts that threatened the planet and universes at large. Event's like the Universe 6 Tournament, Goku Black and Zamasu, and the Tournament of Power. Goku stayed and participated in them but as soon as the threat was defeated, he would automatically leave. Never staying around to interact with his family and friends. That's what made it seem like he disappeared. He had been staying in Lord Beerus's planet the entire time.

Ryuko rolled her eyes and groaned. This was exactly what she was talking about. Him staring at her with that mask on proves a point. It's unsettling.

"Hey! Earth to Saiyan! I'm talking to you!" she snapped at him.

"Hmm? Oh! Sure." Goku said coming out of his reverie. "Just follow me."

Goku turns and walks down a narrow white walled hallway with her following him. Ryuko looks distastefully at the stark color. It was an eyesore to look at. The white color literally hurt her eyes and she rubbed them a few times. They soon got to the door and went inside with it closing behind them. They walked into the middle of the room and stopped.

Ryuko took the time to admire the huge open room. It was spaciously huge and circular in shape. The walls and floor were the same white color and smoothly tiled but to a lesser severity in sharp tones. It was mostly empty save for a control panel on the far side of the wall she was looking at. What it was for she didn't know. She looked up at the ceiling and saw the round domed roof as well before looking straight again. So this is where she would be training.

As Ryuko was taking her time looking around the room, Goku was silently removing the cloak and mask depositing them on the floor gently. His eyes were still glowing emerald green and his hair black. He watched her look around the room for a few more seconds before turning around to face him.

"So this is where I'll be training? Room looks kinda dull if you ask me." Ryuko grumbled folding her arms across her chest. She puffed out some air in annoyance her red strand bouncing with the movement. He snorted and she looked at him and opened her mouth to speak.

Whatever she had to say died instantly. She looked at his face. Really looked at him. He was handsome. She wouldn't deny it. Her heartbeat started increasing as she saw the way his glowing eyes stared into her soul. The way his mouth was formed in a playful smirk. The way his jet black hair jutted out as if it were a palm tree. Ryuko saw his memories and knew all the battles he fought. The struggles that he endured. She saw how he died for their sake. He knew the pain of loss. He understood how it felt to be lonely for a while just like she did.

But even as she admired his looks and saw the depths his bleeding heart would go to, she had to wonder...

Why did it feel like something was off about him? Was he hiding something from her?

Goku noticed her spaced out look and he grinned as an idea came to mind. He silently levitated off the ground and started hovering closer and closer until their faces were merely inches apart. He had to admit that her blue eyes were astounding. Like staring at the sky or the ocean itself. He knew that she had been through a lot and had an effect on her childhood until now. Her personality was something else too. It was like a combination of Bulma and...

And...Chi..

Chichi.

The Saiyan's smile abrupty fell from his face and he quickly put some distance between himself and Ryuko. He landed on the ground quietly and cursed to himself. He clenched his fists tightly.

No...this can't be happening. Not right now. Not at a time like this. Not when he just got back. Not when he has a job to do. What in the hell was he thinking? What was he doing comparing his deceased ex-wife to someone else? To a young woman no less? One who was still in high school. Why now was he thinking about her when he was in front of her? In front of Ryuko?

Did that kiss in the locker room trigger something? Was it because her spitfire, no-nonsense attitude reminded him of her? He had to admit that Ryuko was gorgeous beyond all doubt. He already knew her obvious feelings for him. It was as clear as the Rivers of Yardrat. He wasn't denying her feelings nor was he encouraging them. He always had a playful personality even before his little 'awakening' and subsequent extra transformations. But even that wouldn't cause such feelings within himself right? He unclenched his right hand and ran it through his hair sighing softly. It wouldn't do to get angry. It wasn't Ryuko's fault. It was probably more awkward for her than it was for him.

Another thought struck him. Why didn't he react this way when he kissed Satsuki? With her it was natural. It filled right. She had a straightforward personailty. If she wanted something, she was going to have it. She proved that earlier in the day when they were in the restaurant. When his lips connected with Satsuki, he could feel the alpha female instincts in the way she ground herself against him and forcing her tongue in his mouth. She waded through the high life walking with her head held up proudly and not taking no for an answer. That's who Satsuki Kiryuin was and is.

Ryuko on the other hand...well...it was complicated. Not the bad complicated but the...slightly 'unsure-where-to-go-from-here-because-she-kissed-him-on-impulse-and-ran away' type of complicated. Her cocky attitude and rebellious outlook to life in general was noted every time she bantered with him. It was cute and frustrating all in one.

Based on the rumors that he had heard going around Honnonji Academy Ryuko hated Satsuki with a passion and was going after her. For what he didn't know. But it seems among the students their dislike for each other was mutual. It would be problematic if both of the girls knew that they had affection for the same person. That person being him of course.

There's also the fact that he has barely made any progress with what's going on. The only lead he had at the moment was to meet with Ragyo herself.

Thoughts of Chichi began to swirl in his mind again. He groaned loudly and put his head in his hands. He started pacing back and forth.

"Damn it! Why does everything have to be so complicated? It would be nice if I could just focus on right now instead of that kiss." He put his hands down again and just let out a small chuckle. He looked at the ceiling.

"It's amazing Chi, there's this girl..she's...just like you in every way. She flusters just like you when you get embarrased. She has a hell of a temper just as well. She does have this rebellious attitude towards people in general. Doesn't let anyone put her down."

What he didn't know was that Ryuko had come out of her reverie and was listening to every word he was saying..

He chuckled again and this time decided to float in the air and sit cross legged. Ryuko tilted her head in awe. He could fly? She had to ask him to teach her. She shook her head and continued listening to what he had to say.

"Something recently happened Chi. Lord Beerus and Whis sent me here to look into something that's been going on here for quite some time. Along the way I met her. This girl I was describing, her name is Ryuko. Ryuko Matoi." He coughed.

'Lord Beerus? If I remember correctly that is the purple cat guy he foughtt. But Whis? I never saw him in his memories? she pondered silently.

"Ryuko and I...we...uh...had an...'interesting' moment so to speak." he spoke to himself. "We...kissed. I don't know how it happened Chi, but it just did. I know how many people would view it as...inappropriate and considered wrong. And I agree with that but.." he sighed ignitng a yellow ki ball in his hand and started tossing it back and forth. "I can't help myself around her Chichi. I...I just...I don't know." He balanced the energy ball on his left index finger. "I don't know what the hell to do Chichi. That's basically what I'm saying. I shouldn't encourage this but at the same time I want to as well."

Ryuko was perplexed. Dual Logic was one of those things that were a little more complicated than other types. The man in front of her is a textbook definition of it. Why was he thinking like that for? Unless...oh.

Was he seriously that worried about her age difference between them? The idiot. She fell to the floor and started giggling out loud. The Saiyan jumped at the interruption and turned seeing Ryuko...laughing?

"Matoi?" Goku wearily asked as he approached the fallen girl who was holding her sides. He kneeled before her. "Everything alright?"

"Ryuko will you get a grip? He's looking at you as if you're nuts!" Senketsu said annoyed.

"Sorry sorry." She stifled her giggling and looked up at the Saiyan with that shit eating grin she sometimes wore. "I didn't mean to worry you." The Saiyan raised his eyebrow at her.

"Your face says otherwise."

"I promise I am! Jeez.." she pouted and got to her feet. He did as well. She looked into his green eyes softly. She felt like they were staring into her soul as he was looking right back at her. It was hard to believe that someone like him was capable of destroying planets with ease and so much more. All that power inside him.

"Hey can I talk to you about something?" she asked softly.

"What is it?"

"The kiss. I want to talk about the kiss."

"Ryuko...I...I don't...think that's...a...good i-idea..." he started. She grinned harder knowing his feelings for her were making him frustrated. She wanted him to squirm for a bit. After that kiss she accepted the truth of the situation. Even though she did run away. After one kiss, she finally accepted her feelings for him. Yes she knew he was older than her. She knew that he was married at one point. She even knew that he was a super powerful alien from another planet. But she didn't care.

Why should she? No one ever gave two shits about her except her father, but even then he was taken away from her. She was alone for a while and in pain.

Until she met him. These feelings were new to her sure, and yes she was a bit skittish but...

"Why fight it Goku?" She approached him and laid her head against his chest, hearing his erratic heartbeat. It's fast beats playing a symphony that only she can hear. "Why try to resist something that you know you can't deny?" She started nuzzling up against him. His breathing was hitched enough already. The Kamui user lifted her hands and started rubbing his waist. Goku growled softly taking deep breaths. He had to keep it together. Keep his cool. He secretly coiled his brown tail tighter around himself.

"Damn it Matoi...kn-knock it off...I-I'm saying th-this for a reason...h-hah..." she felt so damn good against way her body was pressed against his. Her hands on his waist. His horomones were getting out of control. He felt heat pool around his entire stomach. A...

A little touch couldn't hurt right?

'FOCUS DAMN IT!'

"Is it because I'm younger than you?" she asked stepping away with that same cheshire grin on her face. He collapsed to a sitting position on the floor. "Is it because you think that you will be labeled a predator of sorts if you admit your feelings for me?"

He looked up at her startled."What? Well yes...that's a major part but...that's...not it. Not the full reason anyways."

"Then what is it? I don't want a bullshit answer either, handsome."

He was silent for a few minutes and she raised her eyebrows?.

"Well?"

He sighed. "I have this basic animalistic trait called Feral Instinct. It's...a part of myself. If I'm not careful enough or don't keep it under wraps...a lot of people could get hurt or even killed. I don't really wanna hurt you."

Huh. That was certainly new to her. "What exactly is this...Feral Instinct?"

"Ever since I unlocked my Super Saiyan 4 transformation I felt bits and pieces of my original personality mix and blend together with my more...upbeat, carefree one. Over time it permanently mixed resulting in me having a more sterner personality. Different parts of my brain that remained cut off from me were connected once more. I became more aware. My intelliegence level increased tenfold. My potential for more strength allows for two more regular transformations and new abilities to be discovered. That's good and all...but there's a catch."

"What's the catch?" she asked.

"The darker part of my original psyche tries to take control at every turn." He gets to his feet and looks at her. His green eyes blaze brightly and she doesn't suppress the shudder of desire flooding through her. His face even more stern. "The deepest part of me that wants to constantly fight strong opponents to the point of torturing them. To spill the blood of my enemies and take what is theirs. Conquer planets. Slaughter the men, fuck the women, and use the children as slaves. Make an example of those who will not bend to my will. Rise up the ranks in the order of this Universe and become it's...GOD." he finished. He starts walking slowly toward her and his irises start turning a bright red. A flaming aura of the same color instantly appeared around him. His hair began rising and started turning red.

Ryuko's beaming face turned into one of terror as she slowly realized the things he was saying. All she wanted was to make him squirm a little. Help him admit his feelings for her with just the right amount of coaxing. She didn't realize it would affect him that bad. Did she push him too far?

"Goku...wh-what are you doing?" she asked backing away from him. Her body was trembling. Her eyes widened slowly as she saw his transformation. The blood red eyes...The wavy crimson orange aura...the now flaming red hair. It was the transformation she saw in his memories during his battle against the purple cat. She felt her back hit the wall and realized she had crossed the entire length of the training room. "Pl-Please stop...you're scaring me..." she whimpered. The ground started shaking and she fell down with a yelp.

Tears gathered in the young woman's eyes as she saw him approach her one loud step at a time. He looked like a fallen Deity that came to strike down a world that had wronged him. His crimson eyes spoke volumes as his footsteps came closer and closer until he stopped right in front of her.

Goku looked down at Ryuko with a stoic gaze. He didn't want to traumatize her with this and it broke his heart to do this to her, but she had to be aware that what was going on with him was a very serious matter. His Super Saiyan God form, and a few extras, would be enough to bring his point across.

"Ryuko." he said causing her to flinch and whimper. He swallowed, but it had to be done. "I don't want to do this to you sweetheart...and it kills me greatly doing this but...you need to understand that this is not a game. So I'm going to show you a small portion of what Feral Instinct is capable of."

N-No Goku please! Please! I-I'm sorry! I just wanted to see how you felt about me! I know you like me! Please...I...I just want someone to love me. I just don't wanna be alone anymore. I'm j-just scared..." she sobbed. Tears fell down her face as cried admitting the heartfelt truth to the man she had feelings for.

"I'm so sorry beautiful..." The Saiyan said. His soul wept for his actions against someone who didn't deserve it. Especially against someone who did catch his attention even more so than his dead wife. Even if it was wrong.

Goku unraveled his now red tail and opened his mouth showing a row of razor sharp canines. He let out a low growl.

Crimson eyes met Ocean Blue.

Ocean Blue met Crimson.

'No...please...I Love You...' Ocean Blue conveyed desperately with dripping tears.

'I know...I ache for you as well. In ways that makes me feel delighted and peaceful yet also disgusted with my actions as I should know better...please forgive me..' Crimson conveyed with love and self loathing in one gaze.

With that one look Goku roared and lunged forward.

Ryuko screamed.

Tell me all the reasons you treat me this way

When you're feeling low to make yourself okay

Tell me all the reasons you treat me this way

When you're feeling low to make yourself okay

Slaves- Let This Haunt You

(To be continued)
