Chapter Four

It Was For Bulma

Gohan waited, sweat pouring down his forehead. He flew himself, Videl and Pan, to Bulma's place. But Chi-Chi, Trunks, and Goten were left behind. Vegeta heard the news and flew off to find his son. Bulma was going nuts.

"YOU LEFT TRUNKS!?!?!"

"Calm down Bulma."

"DON'T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!!" Bulma let out a strangled sob. "Oh Trunks"

"I'm worried too Bulma. Mom and Goten are also still there.

Vegeta scanned the area. The enemy had obvious took off. What a coward. He stopped seeing Kakarott bending over something that looked suspisously like a body. He flew closer and in the shrivel of the moonlight, he saw that it was Chi-chi with blood soaked clothes. The grass around there because a dark red. He searched for Trunks and Goten and found them lying down a few feet away, eyes closed. At first, he felt a strange feeling in his chest because he thought that they were dead. But he sensed a faint energy level from them and knew that they were just unconscious. He landed by Trunks and picked him up. Vegeta turned to face Gokou.

Gokou was just looking at Chi-Chi his face blocked by the darkness of the night.

"Kakarott?"

Gokou slowly raised his head.

Vegeta was shocked at the look on Gokou's face. The prince of saiyans had always thought of Gokou as a happy, peaceful, and un-worthy saiyan. But the look of rage on his face could even make his father, King Vegeta, take a step back.

"She killed her. She killed my wife." Gokou kept on repeating that in a silky, low dangerous voice.

Vegeta didn't know what to say to that. He looked over at Goten. Ah, what the hell. Vegeta picked Goten up and flung the kid over his shoulder. "No use hanging around here, Kakarott. Gohan went over to Bulma's."

"What do you know Vegeta?"

Vegeta glanced back surprised. "What?"

Gokou looked squarely into Vegeta's eyes, his own eyes betraying only anger, hatred, and sorrow. "What do you know about love? You only use Bulma to satisfy your needs." With that, he picked up Chi-Chi gently and flew to Bulma's.

Vegeta blinked. A strange feeling continued to build up inside of him. Suddenly, anger got the better of that mysterious emotion. How dare Kakarott talk that way to his superior. He flew to Bulma's, muttering to himself about revenge.

A outline of a girl could be seen, half hidden from the leaves around the branch she sat on. The moonlight reflected off her silver eyes and she uttered one word out into the world. "Bulma" An smile of evil passed aross her face. "My next target."

Gohan felt himself break down into tears. Chi-Chi. His mom. Dead.

Gokou had arrived only a few minutes before, bearing Chi-Chi's corpse with a stormy face. He hadn't talked to anyone. Not even his best friend, Bulma.

Vegeta had arrived some time after Gokou and he had been strangly quiet too. He kept on glancing over at Bulma, time after time.

Videl put a comforting hand around Gohan. He felt her tears as well. Goten and Trunks had just woken up. Goten was bawling and Trunks had a few tears, not much. Bulma just went up to her room and didn't say a thing. Pan was, of course, confused.

"We have to kill Sekhmet."

Everyone looked up surprised since it was the first time Gokou spoke that night to them. And it was such a deadly voice that they had a hard time believing that it came from the happy-go-lucky Kakarott.

"Dad" Gohan steadied his voice. "We have to find the others."

"We don't have time for that. Somehow, Sekhmet can track down our energies, even if we lower it." Gokou banged his fist on the table, breaking it in half. "And that damn dagger!"

Bulma tore another tissue and wiped the uncontrolled tears. Suddenly, a blast rocked her room and then, her roof wasn't there anymore.

"SHE'S HERE!" Gokou yelled. "GET OUT!! Gohan! Get everyone out now! Get Chi-Chi too!"

With more energy this time, Gohan got everyone out in time. But he forgot some one.

Bulma. Vegeta thought as he raced to her room, the place where the blast had came from.

"Why" Bulma stammered as the girl advanced towards her with a dagger.

"My weakness," the girl said softly. "I must overcome my weakness."

"We-wea-weak-weak-weakness?" Bulma could barely make out the word.

The girl's silvery eyes pierced Bulma's. "Yes, my weakness. My weakness is Son Gokou. I must kill everyone who has any relation to him."

The girl held up the dagger and Bulma screamed. Suddenly she felt herself being rushed aside. Vegeta.

Vegeta's voice could be heard in her ear. "Woman, get out of here." His voice was strangly softer than usual.

Bulma ran to the other side of her room when she sudden realized she was two stories above the ground with no stairs. Suddenly, she felt herself being lifted and dropped gently.

"Bulma, listen to Vegeta and get out of here." It was Gokou. "I don't want you to end up like Chi-Chi."

Sekhmet raised an eyebrow at Vegeta. "Vegeta, right?"

"What do you want with Bulma?"

"I want her blood." She pulled out her dagger but she felt some one take it from her. "What the"

Gokou appeared in back of Vegeta with the Darksword. "You can't use this now."

Sekhmet paused a while before beginning to laugh. "Do you really think that draining energy is the only use of Darksword?"

"Huh?"

"Kakarott! Let go of the damn dagger!" Vegeta shouted.

"Too late. DARKSWORD! INJECT BLACK DEATH!!"

Gokou felt his veins light up in pain as he dropped the dagger. It was if his body was on fire.

Sekhmet felt a pain in her chest as she saw Gokou fall. She fought her instincts to help Gokou. Why should I help him anyway?

She looked at Bulma and then at Vegeta. "She's your wife eh?"

"Yeah, she's my wife."

Sekhmet laughed. "Do you love her?"

Silence.

Vegeta didn't answer.

The laughter continued and Vegeta felt his anger rise. Bulma was out of view now. He powered up.

But his energy came too slowly.

Sekhmet grabbed his arm and twisted it painfully around his back. Her misty breath could be heard close to his ear.

"If you love her, that's a shame, because she'd going to die."

Sekhmet let go and flew up into the air. "STAR LIGHTNING STRIKE!"

Vegeta realized that she was aiming for Bulma and flew to Bulma at incredible speed. At the very last moment, he pushed Bulma out of the way, receiving the fatal blast himself.

Gokou got up, pain nearly making him lose conscious. He saw Vegeta and Bulma get hit with the blast. He eyes widened. "Nonot them. NO!!!" His scream was heard in the heavens and beyond.
