Chapter Thirteen: The Battle's Eve
As all has been set for five days, the gang can somewhat relax and rest before they go all out for the good of all. Now three days have passed and it is time for a little celebration. Many have come to greet Gohan and wish him a happy birthday. But like always the dark shadow of the battle always stuck in the back of their minds.
"Hey Gohan, man your just getting bigger by the day, here you go."
"Thanks Master Roshi it has been a while. I'm glad to see you're well." Gohan looked over his shoulder as he began to dwell not on the celebration at hand but on the battle to come.
"Hey Gohan, why so grim you got what you wanted."
"Well I think mom wanted the encyclopedia set for me."
"Well besides that Gohan I know something is wrong, come on I'm your friend just tell me."
"Well, Krillin I just can't get it out of my head. Gurjal, the battle, the fate of all."
"Yeah I know, it is a lot to sit on, but we face that when we face that, right now it's your birthday party, and you better like it because I paid for the decorations." Gohan and Krillin began to laugh and returned and joined the others.
"So all seems normal doesn't it Goku?"
"Shadow, hey I can't believe you actually came!" Shadow then showed Goku something that no one has seen from Shadow at all, a smile.
"Well Goku I keep in touch with those I teach, I thought Kame told you."
"Yes he did. I really don't know if I can thank you enough." Shadow then gave Goku shaking of his hands and his head.
"Do not worry Goku, you have done enough for by blessing."
"I just think there is more I can do for you anything." Shadow then took a deep breath and the looked up upon the crescent moon.
"Look at it, so beautiful and peaceful, tonight seems like a starlit night."
"Shadow, please anything to repay my debt." Shadow then returned his attention towards Goku who was awaiting an answer.
"Yes you can do something, for me and the good of all. Kill them all. To the last one, what ever it takes, promise me you will stop them."
"(Sigh) Yes I will do so, thank you Shadow." Shadow then waved and Goku and departed into the distance. Goku then looked back at the party and returned to enjoy the spoils of a good time.
(The Next Day)
The gang settled after an unplanned sleep over. Krillin and Gohan were the first to awake and then Piccolo arrived with Tien and Yamcha.
"Well it seems you guys had a good time here last night."
"Yep we sure did, how come you guys didn't show up?" Gohan looked at Tien and Yamcha.
"We were training Gohan, as we are to do today right?"
"Yes, Gohan get your stuff we're suppose to go up to the lookout, we is Goku?" Tien and the others looked around, but he was nowhere to be found.
"Oh he went to Capsule to get you Yamcha, oh and Vegeta." Gohan had a hard time to mention Vegeta in front of Yamcha (Yamcha always hated for Vegeta, even before the whole Bulma thing)
"Oh well he's training, I don't think even Goku can get him to stop doing that." Yamcha then crossed his arms in a macho way.
(At Capsule Corp.)
Goku just landed on the lawn of Capsule and was greeted by both Bulma and her father.
"Hey Goku, it has been a while since you have visited us, how was your trip to the moon colony?" The doctor was eager to
"Oh, well." Goku did not think it was best that even Bulma and Dr. Briefs knew of the danger at hand.
"It was really different, and cool." Goku got that out as quickly as possible and just got to what he wanted to ask them.
"I was thinking if I could get Yamcha?" Bulma was quick to answer Goku.
"He left to your place, like about a half hour ago."
"Oh well, than do you know where I can find Vegeta?" With his name stated Bulma became nervous and answered as quickly as she could.
"Oh that pathetic ape is out back practicing for the little fight." Goku then departed from the father daughter and proceeded to the back lawn where Vegeta's giant training pod laid.
"Hey Vegeta, can I talk to you for a minute?" Vegeta stopped his exercises and turned to face his once foe.
"Kakorot what exactly are you doing here. Can't you see that I am in the middle of something?"
"Well do you think you can part from your training."?
"I don't think so not if I want to stop those monsters." Goku then approached the saiyan prince being intrigued by the unease in his voice.
"Why are you so determined to train, to defeat them?" Goku now began to attempt a connection with Vegeta.
"No, I train to surpass you, and you know that, you're just scared." Vegeta then attempted to resume his exercises.
"I am not scared, I hope to face the challenge, the shavocaians. If you want we're going to train all day today at the lookout, if you want to come you're welcome to join us." As Goku began to leave Vegeta then stopped what he was doing and then shouted.
"Do you not fear death?" Goku then stopped in his tracks and turned back around and started to walk back to Vegeta.
"Why do put your self on the line Kakorot, why. What do you get out of possibly dying?" Goku was still trying to see where Vegeta was aiming.
"Do you ever stop and think this might be your last moments to cherish?" Goku took a little sigh and looked at Vegeta.
"I do, and every time a thing like this battle comes up I do fear death, I do fear this might be my last moments." Vegeta seemed happy to have gotten a confection from Goku.
"Then why do you stay and fight? Why go through with." Vegeta was simply shadowing his own feelings on to Goku and Goku knew that. Goku, for the first time besides Frieza knew Vegeta was scared.
"Because, I remember for whom I am fighting for. I remember what is at stake and then I stay because what I have here is more valuable than my life."
"That is just weak emotion, that is what makes you weak Kakorot." Goku just shaked his head and began to walk away.
"Don't you ever fear it? Don't you ever get sick of it? Aren't you tired of all that emotion? It will be the death of you!" Goku stopped at took one last look at Vegeta.
"Sometimes emotion is the most powerful thing to have, sometimes it's just the thing that keeps you alive." With that said Goku gave a little glance towards Bulma, who was visible through the window, and then looked back at Vegeta and then left. That soon left quite an impression on Vegeta to dwell on and he did so for the next day, and many to come
So the gang met up on the lookout and for the rest of that day they trained for the reassurance of their survival.
(The day of the battle)
All was silent and as each of the members of the gang awoken, not one spoke. They prepared silently knowing what exactly what to do. Little by little each on of them began to appear at the lookout. Piccolo was first to arrive, then Goku and Gohan. Vegeta came next, and now it had seemed as if this battle had the same attitude as the Android battle would. Krillin came next along with Tien, and Yamcha. All gave one another looks of confidence and reassurance. And finally they were ready for their departure.
"Goku good luck to you and all."
"Thank you Kame." Shadow then approached them.
"I have trained you all and I am proud of what you have become, may the grace of all living things bless your cause and journey." All gave a last bow to Kame and Shadow, and Goku was stopped.
"Fulfill the will of all Goku, make a miracle out of it. Make me proud." Goku then took Shadow's arm.
"I will fulfill my promise. Farewell Shadow, may our next meeting be on lighter terms."
"That would be nice." And in an instant they were all gone and on the moon. Now they would face what could be their final battle.
