A Father's Love
Disclaimer:I don't know why this is so important. I don't own
DB/Z/GT, and if you sue me all you will get is my annoying little
brother in a box marked,'Do not open. Ever.' This is set in the
alternate time line where Goku died of the heart disease.
***************************************************
Vegeta hugged Bulma, knowing that he had only so much time
left with her.
In Bulma's arms lay baby Trunks, cooing softly and babbling.
Normally, Vegeta would never be caught dead in this scene, his
pride always held him back. But for now, all he could do was
make sure that they were okay, and protect them while he was
still around to do so.
Suddenly, the whole house shook, and there was no doubt in
either of the adult's minds who it was.
Vegeta reluctantly released Bulma, but she put her soft hand on
his shoulder to stop him. "Will you be back? Please promise me
you'll return?" she whispered softly. Vegeta sighed, he knew
that this would be his final battle. "I cannot make such a
promise, but just remember this. Even while I'm gone, I will
always love you." he murmured back, wishing he didn't have to
go.
Bulma's deep blue eyes lined with tears, but she bit her lip and
nodded. "I understand, but..."
"Bulma, please don't make this hard, I have to go now." Vegeta
pleaded, praying that she would understand.
Bulma allowed one tear to roll down her face, but no more came
as the Saiyan Prince pressed his lips to hers in one last, final kiss.
Vegeta stepped out of the house and saw that the androids were
waiting for him.
"So, you finally decided to show up, eh? I guess you're not a
coward after all." 18 said. She pulled her hair behind
her ear, and smirked at Vegeta.
"Now, sister dear, you're scaring him." 17 said. 18 grunted.
"This one's mine, you got the short man and the triclops." 18
argued.
"The little man should only count as half." 17 joked.
18 narrowed her eyes. "Fine. We'll both kill him. Deal?" she
asked, getting slightly annoyed.
"Deal." 17 agreed. He crouched into a fighting stance along
with his sister.
Vegeta powered up to Super Saiyan, knowing that this fight
would be his last. 'All I can do is hope that my son survives to
avenge me, and that Bulma can forgive me...' he thought sadly
as he lunged forward to his final battle.
He gasped as he felt 17's knee jam into his stomach. Momentarily stunned, all he could do was grunt as 18 elbowed him in the back, knocking him to the ground.
He lay there, trying to breathe, while the twins floated to the ground effortlessly.
"Let's finish him off. He's not even a challenge any more." 17 said, gathering a ball of ki in his hand. 18 nodded and did likewise.
Vegeta screamed as his body was slowly and painfully torn apart by the ki blasts.
Inside, Bulma screamed and sobbed as Vegeta was killed, the one man who had ever truly loved her, was dead, murdured ruthlessly by two androids created by Dr. Gero to destroy Chikyuu and it's people.
After the fight, Bulma ran outside to see if Vegeta was still alive, although
it wasn't likely.
She knelt beside his burnt and torn body, checking for any signs of life.
She found none.
"No... No! NO!!!" Bulma screamed as she hugged Vegeta's limp body
to her.
13 YEARS LATER
Bulma was working in her lab, when she found an old surveillance camera.
"I wonder what's on this?" she thought aloud as she popped it open, revealing
a tape.
She took it out and put it in her VCR. Her eyes lined with tears when she
realized what the tape was.
A 13-year-old Trunks poked his head into his kassan's lab. He saw that she was crying and
watching something on tv.
He moved behind her so he could see. It was a short man with tall, spiky hair,
fighting two all-to-familiar androids.
"Kassan? Who's that?" he asked.
Bulma turned to look at her son.
"He's your father... In his last battle. I'm glad I never throw out anything mechanical.
I might have thrown this away..." she said, biting her lip.
Trunks looked at the screen. 'That's my father? He was a great fighter.' he thought.
Trunks had never seen any pictures or anything of his father. He'd just heard
descriptions of him.
He watched the tape all the way through, trying to memorize his father's
fighting style.
That night, as Trunks climbed into bed, he silently vowed he would avenge his father.

I just fixed this. I have had SO MANY PEOPLE complain that I should-ve elaborated on the fighting scene. So I did. Tell me if you like this one better. I am working dilligently on the next chapters of Mirai and For the Love of Blood, so tell me if there's anything wrong with them and I'll fix it. After all, that IS how I made this story better.
