Final Fantasy 7
The Next Generation
Chapter 9
Death of a Warrior
"Saybia men ATTACK!" Nappa shouted sending the ten little green men after the earth senshi. The one was destroyed by Vegeta for failing against Tien. "Alright my turn," Krillen said. "No wait my friend. Let me have a go at it. If you die you can't be wished back with the dragonballs," Yamcha said stepping towards the fight. "Wha….. Ok whatever you say Yamcha," said the discouraged ex-monk. Terra and Cathreine sat on a rock meditating. Yamcha beat the saybia man easily. "Ha! Piece o' cake!" Yamcha said turning around. "Yeah Yamcha!" Chaut-Zuo screamed. Terra's eyes flashed open and yelled, "YAMCHA! WHATCH OUT!" But it was too late. The saybia man had survived Yamcha's onslaught and now had attached itself to Yamcha. "What the……. Hey let go of me!" Yamcha screamed. Suddenly the saybia man exploded leaving Yamcha's charred body in a crater.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!" Tifa screamed burying her face in her hands. "What…… no….. Yamcha please no," Bulma whispered before bursting into tears. "YAMCHA!" Puar sobbed throwing herself against the TV crying. Tifa sobbed against Barret's shoulder. Chi chi had fainted long ago and now Puar followed the suite. "I loved him so," Tifa sobbed. "WHAT! YOU LOVED HIM! HE WAS MY BOYFRIEND TIFA LOCKHEART!" Bulma screamed angrily. "NO WAY HE DUMPED YOU!" Tifa screamed back. This is going to be a long day Cloud thought turning away from the two girls. Suddenly a remote came whizzing at him. With out even turning around he grabbed it and broke it easily. No one seemed to notice his presence though. Cloud looked towards his air car. The damn thing was over heated from being driven here so fast. I'll get there soon girls. Cloud looked up and whispered, "If you harm a single hair on their heads Vegeta you'll be sorry."
{2 hours later}
Tien and Chaut-Zuo are dead only Piccolo, Gohan, Terra, Cathreine, and Krillen remain. Five saybia men still remain though. Gohan sits there trying to be strong. Suddenly Terra gets up. "Oh look Nappa the girl finally is going to fight," Vegeta taunted. Terra opened her eyes. Gohan gasped they were so dark they looked almost black. "Will you tell those lame brained baka yaros to stop laughing!" She said pointing at the saybia men. They had been laughing like that the whole fight and Piccolo could understand why she seemed so pissed. "Awwwww. Are the little half-breed baby's ears hurting her? HAHAHAHAHAHHA!" Nappa taunted. Terra's eyes narrowed no one called her a half-breed. The saybia men kept laughing and now Terra clutched her head in pain from it. Why can't they stop laughing she thought? Why…….Why…….WHY! Finally Terra turned around and grabbed Gohan lifted him above her head and threw him at the saybia men. They kept laughing and with what little brains they had they thought she thinks that little boy can beat us. Suddenly Gohan's eyes grew wide and he screamed on the top of his lungs, "MASANKA!!!!!!" The blast hit the saybia men right on killing them instantly. "WHAT IN HELL WAS THAT! THAT KID'S ^&*@#!^% STRONG!" Nappa yelled.
Nappa then came at them then. Terra could sense an immense power. I'm stronger though. The giant sayain wasn't attacking her though he was after Gohan. Gohan managed to dodge the attack, but not the next one. Terra's angered built up, but she managed to control herself. "Terra come here," Piccolo shouted. Terra's anger still remained with her but she pushed it down deep inside her. All of her anger was stored here. And it was about to be released.
"Terra has the planet told you it's time yet?" Krillen asked anxiously. "No," Terra said coldly. "Ok enough talking. I got a plan. Krillen I need you to distract that big idiot, then I'll sneak behind him and grab his tail," Piccolo said. "What good will that do?" Krillen asked. "Sayains are weakened when your grab their tail. It's kinda like our Achilles heel," Terra explained. "So if you ever annoy me again I can just pull your tail out," Piccolo said. "Yes. But the minute you let go I'll beat the shit out of you," Terra snapped. "Ok after I have his tail I need you to hit with full force Gohan," Piccolo explained. "What! No way! What if I screw up!?" Gohan panicked. "You won't! Now let's go!" Piccolo shouted. Terra walked to the rock that she'd been meditating on. The planet was telling her that someone would return to the planet soon. Poor Krillen Terra thought. Little did she know that Krillen was not the one the planet spoke of.
Their attack failed. Terra couldn't believe that these freaks had out grown their weakness. Piccolo grabbed his tail but also got Nappa's elbow in the back of his neck. "Damn! Cat this don't look good," Terra whispered. "I know, but we must obey the planet," Cathreine said. "I know, I know," was all Terra said before returning her attention to the fight. She watched as Nappa's knee connected with Gohan's stomach. Her anger was once again pushed down into the little pit in her stomach where she kept her anger, rage, hatred, grief, and even fear. Krillen was already down. He wasn't dead, but he was hurt. Piccolo could barely move even. She wanted to obey the planet, but each injury inflicted on her friend was making it harder and making her temper and ki rise.
Then Nappa threw Gohan to the ground. Terra suddenly felt an enormous power emitting from Nappa. "Now you DIE!" Nappa screamed. "No," Terra whispered forgetting every thing the planet was telling her. She ran towards Gohan. I have to defend him the blast will kill him. It's too strong.
Vegeta was watching in amusement. Suddenly he looked towards the small figure running towards the boy. "Heh. I don't think so." Vegeta lifted a single finger and a large rock flew towards Terra.
Almost there Terra thought. Suddenly she felt something hit her in the head knocking her to the ground. A rock!? "No." The hit to her head had shocked her and her ki had lowered. Terra saw the blast get closer and closer to Gohan. Just as it was to hit him a green blur flashed in front of him. Terra braced her self for the after shock. When the dust and smoke cleared she saw what had protected Gohan from the blast. "No. NO!" Terra shouted seeing Piccolo's body lying on the ground. "No. Not him. He can't die. With out him we can't gather the dragon balls," She whispered as she walked towards Piccolo's lifeless body. She felt Cathreine presence beside her when she kneeled next to her sensei. Gohan was near tears as Piccolo spoke. "Don't worry you three. Listen I've watched you all change over this year and I'm proud of ya. Gohan you and Cathreine have changed children into warriors both of your parents will be proud. Terra you've taught me much. You've taught me kindness. I thank you for it. You three are the only friends I've ever had. Thank you. Please wish me back." Then Piccolo, The Demon King, and the kindest most caring sensei Terra, Cat, and Gohan had ever had was gone. "No. NO! PICCOLO!" was all you could hear as Terra screamed in anguish
