(Okay folks, some people might not like the fact that Goten is acting a little bit too mature for his age. though I have watched the show, movies, and stuff. Gohan was always forced to grow up earily, and he always acted grown up. Goten acts young but in a different situation, he act grown up. He is kind of forced into that situation. I have watched some of the movies and I know Goten takes his fighting seriously. He wants to be like his father. Anyhow, that is my thought on the matter. If you think I'm getting WAY out of character, please tell me and I'll tone it down.)
Am I a Failure?
Vegeta watched sitting on the ground as Gohan descended into the air. He held Goten in his arms that were weakly holding on by a thread. He had not seen Gohan fight for a long time and in face, he had no idea if he was even up for a match like this. Vegeta scowled knowing he was related to Kakkorot, but at the same time, he knew Gohan was much stronger. For even now, he was not showing his full strength. He fought like Kakkorot. He liked to gage his enemy, even though he hated the Kakkorot family. When they fought it was a treat to watch.
"So are you just as weak as that little failure of a sayine." Brolly Jr. laughed. Vegeta saw Gohan's eyes narrowed.
"I will beat you." The guy laughed and looked own at where he was.
"A disgrace is all your brother is...and a failure. His father would be very disappointed." Vegeta felt Goten fidget ever so slightly at the word failure. He opened his eyes, got out of Vegeta's grasp, and stood himself up. He fell back down on his feet. Vegeta just scowled at the kid.
"What are you doing little brat?" Vegeta felt like winching as he said those words. He saw the pain on the kids face. He glanced over at Vegeta with tears threatening to fall.
"I cannot be a failure...I want to be like daddy..."Vegeta did not know why that struck a cord through his heart. Vegeta looked at Goten and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Your father would be very proud of you." Goten looked over his shoulder. He saw the tears in his eyes, which showed him a hint, that he was so ashamed. His eyes were not the happy expression or that unmistakable Kakkorot confidence. There was nothing but disappointment. He suddenly sat himself down and stopped looking at him all together.
"I failed." He should of fell on his face out conscious, for even standing was excessively much for Goten to do. Vegeta caught the kid, turned him to look at him.
"Look you are Kakkorot's son." The kid just looked at him and closed his eyes. He wiggled his way out of his grip and sat himself down next to some rock. Vegeta scowled as he got up and looked down at the kid.
"Fine Kid, if you don't want to listen to me, then you can sit here by yourself." Vegeta did not do it consciously; it was more of a pride decision. He flew up and away from Goten; he was going to let him be. He floated away from the scene.
Gohan looked down at his brother as Vegeta flew away. He glanced back at his enemy. Brolly came charging at his head. He moved as with each punch, kick, and throw. He matched each of them easily. Gohan left a room for error as he let him hit him in the face; he flew back, as he let Brolly start to beat him up. He let it go on for a little bit longer until he felt enough of what he could do. He slammed his foot into Brolly's face. He heard a loud crack in his jaw, which sent him flying hard through the hard rocky floor. Gohan smirked.
"Are you ready to fight or not?" Gohan joked. He felt the man's anger enlarge his energy level started to increase. Gohan laughed at his power increase. He came bursting out of the rocky bed.
"Is that the best you got?" Gohan did not want to admit it, but he was challenged. He will kill the bastard.
"You are horsing around, will you stop it!" Vegeta yelled as he flew away, how perfect! He could get rid of Kakkorot's son. However, why dose he feel so bad about it. He shook his head as he flew away. He could feel Goten looking after him, but he did not care.
"You are horsing around with me." Gohan frowned as he glanced at Vegeta fly away.
"Yes I'm horsing around with you, so lets get serious and start some fighting." Gohan saw the man smile as a bright red ball appeared on his fingers.
"Fine let us start." The guy tossed the ball. He took his hand and batted it away. It landed with a boom inside the mountain. The guy eyes widened for a moment as Gohan knelt his eyebrows together.
"Let us rock and roll then." He laughed as the fight started to get serious. He looked over at Vegeta flew away from the battle. How typical of him, such a jackass. He thought to himself. He almost got distracted as Brolly started to fly at his head. He hit him back in the stomach, which sent him falling to the ground. He looked down at Goten, who laid his head against the rock. His eyes were closed. He blocked another kick as they were going faster and faster. He was soon totally in grossed into the fight, he did not even noticed Goten slumping off the rock. His head hit the rocky floor.
Goku felt a strong presence enter his being. It was Goten. He felt like he was on the verge of giving up. He did not know what was going on, but quickly found King Kaio. He looked at him with a frown.
"What is happening?" He was worried...it was as if he was going to see Goten dead...with him.
"Its Brolly Jr." Goku looked at him for a long moment.
"Brolly Jr...shit, how is Goten?" King Kaio just frowned.
"He took a severe betting, his "ki" is extremely weak." Goku's hands went into a fist.
"Where is Gohan?" King Kaio looked at him.
"He is fighting with Brolly Jr now. Vegeta was baby sitting him." Goku frowned for a moment but raised an eyebrow at the same time.
"I need to talk to Goten." King Kaio nodded his head. Goku went over to him and placed his hand on his back. He was trying to read Goten's thoughts first.
Goten felt like crying, he did not mean to send Vegeta away. He did not mean to insult him, but walking away. He did not mean to loose the fight, he almost lost his life. He did not have anything left to give. He gave his all...yet he knew his dad would never approve of him. He would never like him, he was a failure. He worked so hard to get respect from Vegeta, and finally when he acts the way he thinks he should around him, to get some respect. He goes away. He wants his daddy, even though he had no idea what he looked like...or sounded like. He wanted to be held by his dad, he wanted a daddy...
"Goten..." Goten blinked his eyes open for a long moment, as he tried to think where the voice came from. He looked up at the sky, he could barely see. His vision was so weak, he could barely breath. The blood tried to come up, that was why he did not want to be held. It hurt too much.
"Yes?!" He felt a sudden feeling of calm as if a silent hug encircled him.
"Its me, Goku, your father." Goten's eyes got wide. He tried to stand up or move his body, which had landed on the floor. He could not move it. He could barely open his eyes to look up at the sky.
"Daddy!" He cried out softly.
"Its okay, I am very proud of you. In addition, there is no moment in my life that I would ever not be proud of you. You gave your all and then some, you cannot ask for more then that. You also saved Vegeta's son Trunk's life. I am very proud of you." Goten felt tears come to his eyes as he thought of his father talking inside his head.
"Your not disappointed in me?" He felt that ever-present calm settle around him again.
"No, so don't you dare give up and join me in death now. You have a lot to live for and to get stronger. The point of losing some battles is learning what not to do. It is the only way to get stronger sometimes. You will win battles. Hell, you did just as well as Gohan did at your age." Goten gave a tired smile.
"But I'm so tired daddy. If I fall asleep though, I don't know if I will awake." He felt a silent for a long moment.
"What do you need?" Goten thought for a long moment
"I need someone to keep me awake...I'm sorry daddy!" He felt the love from his dad suddenly as if he hugged him.
"Don't worry, you will be fine. I have to go, but I will get someone quickly to watch you. Now don't you give up and give into death. I love you my son and I always will." Goten did not know why, but those words gave him more meaning and love then he had ever gotten in his whole life.
"I love you daddy!" He felt his father leave as a tear left his cheek.
Vegeta had a scowl on his face. He stopped what he was doing and turned to look back at the area where the battle was going. From a distance, he could see Gohan and Brolly Jr. really going at it. He frowned as he thought of Goten sitting there, by himself, like a sitting duck. He could tell the battle was really starting to heat up and he could sense Gohan had not released all his power yet. He was still toying around. He frowned at the thought. The thought of Goten entered his mind again, he had saved Trunk from a blast that would not have killed him, but seriously hurt him. How ungrateful was the kid that he could not notice when he was actually offering help.
"Vegeta?" Vegeta blinked as a voice entered his mind. He scowled, as he knew who it had to be.
"Kakkorot what do you want?" He frowned at the thought of Kakkorot, and what Goten was trying to be. He was trying to be like his father, as is Gohan trying to be like his father.
"I need you to go back to Goten." Vegeta crossed arms.
"Hmph, why should I bother he looks fine to me." He did not know why but he felt concern from Goku. Then a thought occurred to him; he wondered how close Goten was to death? He shook that thought out of his mind. The flash of Goten's tail wrapping around his stomach, flashed once again.
"Feel his "ki"." Vegeta's eyes narrowed as Goku was telling him what to do. Vegeta frowned as he stretched out. His eyes widened as he felt a pang in his heart. Goten felt worse now. It was less then one but more then zero. It was as if he was close to giving up. He frowned.
"He needs someone Vegeta...please help" He scowled.
"Fine, but I'm not going to do it cause of you." A big explosion thundered as suddenly the voice of Goku was there it was gone. He frowned as he heard a crack and saw Gohan fly backwards. He powered up flying back from where he came from. He growled thinking to himself, how dose Kakkorot talk me into doing these things! He flew over to where the fight was taking place as he noticed Gohan from a distance suddenly gotten shoved back from a very violent blast. He had succeeded in stopping himself from spinning and turned to look back at Brolly. He just laughed and moved his fingers back and forth. Vegeta moved in quick.
"Now where was I?" Vegeta watched as it happened so fast. Gohan could not stop the blast that left his fingertips. It was not a big thing, but it was powerful. He saw that at first it looked like it was flying at Gohan, but suddenly took a deep turn south, and hit Goten. He saw Goten's body went flying. Vegeta quickly moved at caught Goten's body in his arms.
"I have him." He shouted at Gohan, as he looked to go caught him. He looked surprised that he had come back. Gohan nodded his head, gave a thumbs up, as another power blast came at him. He had to beat Brolly, and he turned to block it. He was getting pissed, though in the back of his head, he noticed Gohan's power increase suddenly. However, right now, Vegeta did not care. He just looked down at Goten who was more dead then alive now.
"Shit." He murmured...he should not have left him. Goten seemed to move slightly in his arms as he glanced at him.
"Daddy, I won't give up." He heard him murmur quietly. He gave a small smirk and floated himself down. He laid him back against the rock.
"Where the hell is Trunks?" He looked up at Gohan, the battle was about to heat up very quickly and he had a feeling Gohan just might need some help. If it was just to get Goten out of there and now he certainly could not do it without a sensu bean.
Trunks sped as quickly as he could. He had to find to get those sensu beans! He thought of the moved Goten pulled in blocking that attack from hitting him. He also remembers the stunt in him hitting that other attack from hitting him on his way out to get help. He would not lose his friends.
Kryilin flew fast towards where he needed to go. He frowned, as the "ki" of Goten was getting fainter and fainter. He had to get those beans and fast. He sped up the process. He had to go get those beans.
Brolly grinded his teeth, he was going to win this fight. As he started to fight hard with Gohan, he laughed as the "ki" of Goten started to get fainter. He should die soon, and then he will be mine. He saw the older warrior look down at Goten as he knelt down and shook him slightly. He saw him try to wake him up. He picked him up off the ground and blasted off.
"Well it looks like your brother won't make it..." he laughed not realizing what he was doing. He saw the anger flash in Gohan's eyes as he looks behind him.
"No he won't die...you will."
(WELL?!? What do you think?)
Am I a Failure?
Vegeta watched sitting on the ground as Gohan descended into the air. He held Goten in his arms that were weakly holding on by a thread.

"But I'm so tired daddy. If I fall asleep though, I don't know if I will awake." He felt a silent for a long moment.

"Shit." He murmured...he should not have left him. Goten seemed to move slightly in his arms as he glanced at him.

"Where the hell is Trunks?" He looked up at Gohan, the battle was about to heat up very quickly and he had a feeling Gohan just might need some help. If it was just to get Goten out of there and now he certainly could not do it without a sensu bean.

Brolly grinded his teeth, he was going to win this fight. As he started to fight hard with Gohan, he laughed as the "ki" of Goten started to get fainter. He should die soon, and then he will be mine.

(WELL?!? What do you think?)
