(Last time on Forbidden Romance)
"Well, Father I came here to talk to you about Goten." I said. It was then that everything went silent in the room.
I looked around wondering why everyone was so silent. I saw the forlorn look on my mothers face and I started to wonder what
happened. "Mother what happened? Why is everyone so quite?"
"I'm sorry dear." She said sadly.
"What are you sorry about mother, father? It's not about Goten is it?" I asked worriedly. My mother looked at my
father and I saw sadness in bother their eyes. I then began to dread what they where about to tell me.
"It is honey." My mother started. "We are sorry princess, but Goten is on his way to the guillotine." My father
said as my mother hung her head. I shook my head no and then turned and ran out of the room.

Chapter 10

I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. Once again tears were beginning to show in my eyes. I screeched around a
corner and accidentally bumped into someone. I didn't stop to say sorry I just picked up my speed again. I knew that if he
was on his way to the guillotine, he would be in the town square. I ran through the palace at top speed until I reached a
door, which led outside to the stables. I quickened my pace over the hard rock covered ground and then burst through the
doors of the stable. The stable boy was surprised to say the least I just turned to him and said one thing, "Give me the
fastest and swiftest horse you have." He nodded his head and went quickly to get the horse. Soon he arrived back with a
black stallion. A fine creature it was. With a black coat that was dark as the midnight sky and as silky as velvet material.
I saw that it was not yet saddled. But at the moment I didn't care. I basically ran up to the side of the horse and got on
him. I put my hands into his mane and kicked the side of him to get him to run. He did and soon I was racing over the rocky
ground. I watched as I saw trees and peasants fly by, they where almost a blur. I felt the wind blowing my hair and heard it
in my ears as well. My heart was racing and I was having trouble thinking straight. But I knew I had to stay focused. I
closed my eyes to blink away the upcoming tears. I gripped tighter to the horses main as I realized that we were getting
closer to the town. Soon, small houses made of brick and stone were passing by and then I started to make out a crowd in the
distance. I slowed the horse as I got to the overwhelming sea of people. And as soon I was there I looked to the center of
the crowd only to see the blade of the guillotine raised and ready to fall on the victim's neck below. I couldn't hear the
crowd anymore, the sounded so... distant. Then my eyes widened and I screamed out just as the blade began to fall. I squeezed
my eyes shut and turned my head away as the blade pieced through Goten's neck. I couldn't bear to watch the site. I leaned
my head down into the horse's mane and began to weep as silently as I could. My body began to tremble and I could feel the
aching in my heart. It hurt.... It hurt so much.... A couple minutes later I pulled my face out of the horse's mane and got
down from him. I then walked through the crowd on shaky legs towards where Goten's body lay. As I saw the site and I felt my
insides turning... I wanted to throw-up.... The site of the blood... My lover's blood... I turned my head away and shut my
eyes as if trying to close out the site and the pain in my heart. I didn't really see the people around me, for I was too
involved in my own emotional pain to care about them. I then looked back at the decapitated body of Goten and fell on my
knees right next to it. I put my head on his cold chest and cried harder. I cried for the love I lost, I cried for the lover
I lost, I cried for the life I lost. I then felt someone tapping me on the shoulder but I ignored them. They tapped me on the
shoulder again and this time I turned around annoyed. 'Why couldn't people just leave me alone?' "What do you want!?" I
screamed. I the person backed up a bit but didn't go away.
"You loved him, no?" I was taken back by the question. I looked up at the old lady through still tearful eyes.
"Yes, I loved him. And I still do." I replied back. I was kind of amazed that I hadn't yelled at her to leave me
alone but I felt an assuring feeling radiating from the old lady.
"Then if you like, you could be with him..." I looked at the old lady in shock. What did she mean by that?
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean my child is that you could be with him in the afterlife." I hadn't thought about that. If I were to
die, I could be with him again. "Would you want to be with him in the afterlife?"
"Yes. Yes, I would."
"Well then, if you take this poison you shall be with him again." She then outstretched her hand and made a small
bottle appear. I was surprised at that, she had just made it appear... But I didn't have time to dwell on that for she was
now giving me the small glass bottle. I accepted it and then looked at it. When I was done examining the bottle I looked up
at her.
"Who are you?" I asked. She smiled and then answered,
"I am someone for you to trust. I made the mistake of this happening. Your Goten was not supposed to die. He was
supposed to live but he didn't and that was my fault. I was supposed to watch over him and make sure no harm came to him. I
was supposed to protect him in his romance with you. But I failed. And now, I'm giving you the chance to be with him sooner."
My eyes widened and I looked down at the small bottle in my hand. When I looked back up, the old lady was gone. 'Perhaps his
fairy godmother...' I turned back to the decapitated body of my lover and made up my mind. 'I will be with him forever. And
forever starts now.' I then uncorked the bottle and brought it to my lips. I took one small swallow and then before I knew
it, my heart stopped and my body fell lifeless on top of Goten's. From a short distance away, the old lady was watching. She
smiled at the lifeless couple that was on the ground. "They couldn't be together in this life, but in the afterlife they are
together now. And nothing shall stop them." She then turned and walked away.

Well, that's the end of this one. Not really as happy as the other.... But that's okay. Lol. I'm thinking about doing a

The next part of MoonBall should be coming out soon. Gomen for these coming out so late. ^^; Well, remember to
review and later!
