Hey everyone I'm back, Sorry this is taking a while. Summer school's left me shattered all week. Anyways this chapters gonna explain some things from chapter one so I hope you like. Oh and REVIEW please. Bye!
Bra closed the front door of her home quietly. The pouring rain had developed into a full-blown storm as she had returned to the silent house. Bra looked down into the dark house as she replaced her umbrella. The house was empty like her. She flipped on the light switch and was momentary blinded by the harsh light. Tears flowed down her face as she looked around her. Everything reminded her of them. She walked over to the hallway table, picking up a photo of her family. Vegeta was actually smiling in it and that was a rare event. The photo was from one of Bulma's get together's and he had finally told Bulma he loved her. Bra clenched her eyes shut, they were happy then. Why did they have to die? There was no evil out to hurt them all and Bra was beginning to enjoy life with her family and then this happens to her. Bra wasn't aware of her Ki rising, all she was aware of was her memories from that day and the day that changed everything.
Flashback…
Since there had been no evil left to harm the world Bulma felt that she should take the family on vacation. Vegeta had disagreed with her idea but she managed to talk him into it, promising him that it would be worth it. They were all ready to go in the car when Bra suddenly gasped
"Oh wait I've forgotten something, I'll be right back." Bulma rolled her eyes at her daughter
"Hurry up then princess, I'll get the engine running." Vegeta growled as Bra ran out of the car, slamming the door behind her as she ran back inside the capsule corps "Woman I don't see why we cant fly there." Bulma sighed as she placed her keys in the egnition
"Vegeta we are going on a NORMAL family vacation. That means no sparing, flying or anything of the sorts." The engine revved up and Bulma smiled over at her husband "You'll relax and enjoy it…" Bulma never got to finish off her sentence as the car blew up unexpectidly.
Bra was shifting through her dresser, looking for her locket that Goten had given to her for her 18th birthday when she heard the great boom outside. She jumped from the huge sound, confused to where it could have come from. She walked slowly up to her bedroom window, not wanting to know what the sound was from when she saw what used to be the car her family were in. Bra gasped and ran outside in speeds she never knew were possible for her. She stopped dead in her tracks when she came face to face with the remains of the car. It was ruined, somehow blowing up with her family still inside. Bra tried to hold back her tears "DADDYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!"
Goku and Goten had been sparing lightly when they felt Trunks and Vegeta's Ki's plummet into nothing all of a sudden. They just stopped and looked at each other silently before speeding off towards capsule corps.
Bra was kneeling down by her father's side when Goku and Goten landed behind her. Goku could only look down at his feet in sorrow at the sight while Goten gasped and ran to Bra's side "Shh Bra, what happened? Shh… don't cry Bra…I'm here." He rocked her soothingly as he hugged her. She could only cry into his shoulder while Goku went to check the bodies. They were all dead, burnt and broken from the explosion which killed every one of them. Goku glanced at each of them before turning to his son and Bra "They're dead…"
End of flashback.
Bra's eyes hurt from the endless tears she had cried since then. The police had found out that it was actually a murder set up by capsule corps rival company's president. How Bra hated that man, she wanted to kill him with her own hands. She almost did when she had saw him in court, she would have if Goten hadn't been there. She loathed him, He'd killed her family all because he felt they were a risk to his market share and if he had the Briefs family out of the way he could buy the company and take it over. Her father and Trunks shouldn't have died due to their sajain genes but the whole thing was so unexpected that their guard had been down.
Bra screamed as all her pent up anger and pain was suddenly released and she destroyed the photo and everything else she could get her hands on. The next thing she knew she was lying on the floor in a bundle, crying.
Goten had followed her home from the funeral and he just arrived there when she collapsed on the floor. Goten looked down at her as he picked her up gently into his arms "Bra, shhh… just cry… let it out of your system… It's okay." He noticed that she had glass from the photo frame embedded in her fists but she couldn't feel it, her emotional pain was too much for her at the moment. He placed her into his arms and began to walk upstairs to her room.
He walked inside and placed her down on the bed tenderly before going to get a first aid kit from her bathroom. Bra had eventually stopped sobbing as Goten gently tended to her wounds. Once that was done he sat across from her thinking "Bra, I want you to live with me." Bra glanced up at him, her drowsy eyes red and puffy from her endless tears "Okay…" She whispered, exhausted from her grief.
She didn't have anywhere else to go, and Goten was the only person who had managed to give her some comfort throughout her ordeal even if she treaded him badly before. Goten nodded and began to pack her things for her as she slept soundly for a little while.
When she woke up she found herself at Goten's apartment in the spare room. She didn't know just how long she had slept but she knew she still felt exhausted. She just wanted to stay in bed all day long and hide from her problems when Goten came in "Are you feeling better?" He asked her kindly, as she sat up "I'm tired." Goten smiled at her gently in response and placed his try before her
"I brought you breakfast." Bra smiled down at the burnt toast and bowl of cereal as he looked sheepishly at her "Sorry about the burnt toast." Bra smiled slightly at him and his face lit up at that
one small gesture "Thank you Goten… for everything. I don't really know what I'd do without you." Goten smiled at her sweetly and wiped away her new falling tears "Shh, Bra… It's reward enough to see you smile again… Please don't cry." Bra sniffed as Goten wiped away her tears again and suddenly she hugged him, needing his comfort, needing his soothing words… simply needing him. Goten sighed as he stroked her long hair "Goten… Don't leave me… I couldn't stand being alone…" She whispered as he pulled away from her and took her hands in his "Bra look at me…" She looked up to find his deep midnight eyes penetrating through her's "… Bra I would never leave you! I love you too much to do that." Bra smiled as he blushed but the after witnessing her smile he smiled back. Bra touched his face gently, pushing away the stray strands of hair from his eyes "You… you love me?" She asked softly. Goten placed his hand over her's "With all my heart Bra, I swore I'd look after you and care for you as long as I live" Bra smiled again as he leaned in slowly for a soft kiss. Goten pulled away as he felt her wet tears running down her face again "Bra, you're crying again… I didn't hurt you did I?" Bra shook her head, and he wiped these tears away "No Goten, you couldn't hurt me They're tears of joy."
Goten smiled and took her into his arms again, staying with her the entire night.
Hey I like this chapter, it's really sweet. What do you lot think? I'm thinking about doing a lemon scene next but personally I think I do way too many of them. Do you want one? And do you want me to bring back Vegeta, Trunks and Bulma? Tell me when you review okay. See ya.
