Chapter 12: Vegeta's Dream Realized
For the first time Brolly was thought to have finally met his match. "Gokan huh, well lets see. I estimate that you both are hiding maybe 20 times your full power. But I am still 50 times stronger than you combined," Brolly said smiling at Gokan and Cegetall. Trunks looked on nervously, "What if my father can't beat him?" "Go," Gokan said as Cegetall and himself darted at Brolly. No one could follow their movements as everyone saw energy flashes across the sky. Punches and kicks faster than imagination itself became the judge of the outcome of this fight. After 20 minutes the three fighters appeared. Cegetall and Gokan were breathing heavily and Brolly stood calm and emotionless. "I'm bored," Brolly said. Brolly bent down and crushed a stone with his hand. "You both are about to feel like this rock does. I am tired of playing with you. Now bow down to my full and true power," Brolly said. Brolly flew high into the sky and stopped. Brolly began to stretch out his arms and then shouted a scream with unimaginable energy. Brolly's body was soon covered in huge ball of blue energy. "Don't worry guys its still two versus one," Gokan said. PUFF!!!!!! Vegeta and Cell separated. "No I forgot about the time limit," Vegeta said smashing his fist into the ground. PUFF!!!!!!!!! Gohan and Goku also separated. Goku watched helplessly as Brolly exceeded a power his imagination thought was not possible. "Does anyone have a scouter," Goku asked. "Yes master Kaka.. Goku. I still have mine," Turles said. Goku thought he was hearing things. "Did he just call me master," Goku thought, "Not only did he call me master but he called me by my Earth name err, I mean my real name." Goku smiled. "Can you please tell me what it's reading," Goku asked? Turles pushed the side button twice and numbers started to calculate. The scouter stopped and Turles' jaw dropped. "Um, it's reading a little over six trillion Goku," Turles said gasping for breath. Everyone's eyes widened. Goku looked down and started thinking carefully. "KAKAROT," Vegeta yelled! Goku looked toward Vegeta and saw only Brolly's fist come smashing into his head. Goku's body paralyzed upon impact, and dropping to the ground. Goku's dark eyes whitened, as he laid there motionless. Everyone's eyes faulted. Vegeta's head jerked when he felt an unfamiliar energy. "What now, I can feel another power. It's very close, it feels like Freiza's but different. Could it be Cell who I'm sensing this from?" Vegeta glanced over at Cell who was gathering energy. Vegeta looked on inspecting Cell. "Kienzin Disk," Cell yelled sending a planet-sized disk at Brolly. Brolly held out a hand and caught the disk. "WHAT," everyone screamed in fear. Brolly inspected the disk tossed it into space. Cell powered up an attacked Brolly head on. While Cell and Brolly fought Vegeta flew over to Goku. Vegeta looked at Goku and knelt down beside him. "Never in my dreams would I have thought your death would be so painful. So many years ago I would have spit on you and laughed. But now I admit as far as I have come, it was because of you. All my training was to be the one to deal the finishing blow to your low class stinking body. But if you never existed I would have died on Namek a long time ago. Even after I tried to kill you and your son. It was you who gave me a proper burial. After that my goal was to surpass you and destroy you. Thinking about my attitude towards you like that is so painful to me now, I'm truly ashamed of myself. To make matters worse I cannot even tell you that I'm (Pause) Kakarot no Goku I am truly sorry," Vegeta said to himself.
"Ve…ge..ta," Goku said painfully. Vegeta looked down and saw Goku's eyes open. "Vegeta, I don't have much time so please listen to me. I just wanted to thank you for putting up with me all these years. I know you never did like me but, I just wanted to say that I enjoyed your company. I would also like to say that I respect you as a fighter. I want you to know that even though you've always wanted to kill me I have always thought of you as a brother. Please take care of my family for me…….Brother," Goku's eyes shut again and Goku's energy vanished.
Vegeta's eyes still wide started to shed tears. "Kakarot my brother, as your last request as a warrior I will do whatever it takes to accomplish your last wish," Vegeta said looking at Goku's limp body. Cell's body fell a few feet from away from Vegeta covered in green blood. Vegeta looked at Cell and could still feel that enormous energy signal. Gohan powered up and began to walk toward Brolly. Vegeta looked back into his memory of his life.
**FLASHBACK**
Vegeta saw nothing but black then the Ginyu Force appeared and Vegeta saw himself beaten badly by Recoombe. Goku showed up and took care of them all with no effort.
Vegeta then shifted to his last thoughts before Freiza killed him. "Kakarot, please destroy Freiza," Vegeta said. Vegeta then saw Goku for the first time as a Super Saiyan.
"Kakarot you have always been more prepared than me for a challenge," Vegeta thought.
Vegeta then saw Goku fight Cell, Buu, Baby, Super 17, even the evil Eternal Dragons.
**END FLASHBACK**
"I understand now, the classes of Saiyans make no difference. It all depends on how much you train. I may be a Prince but, Kakarot you are the Elite. I am the universes last hope of survival," Vegeta said to Goku's limp body. Vegeta turned around toward Brolly and gave him the darkest look the universe has ever seen. "Gohan, get the hell out of my f*cking way," Vegeta said, "I must take your father's place as protector of the universe now." Gohan powered down and backed off looking at Vegeta's deadly glare.
"What's with Vegeta he looks really mad. What did my father say to him," Gohan thought.
"Brolly I highly suggest you leave. In my state of mind I have no desire to kill you right now," Vegeta said trying to control his anger. "You have no desire to kill me because you can't kill me. I am among the strongest in the universe. You are nothing but child's play," Brolly said looking at Vegeta. Vegeta lost whatever control he had and began to power up. Vegeta flew at Brolly and connected with a punch in the middle of Brolly's chest. Brolly laughed and knocked Vegeta down with the back of his hand. Vegeta screamed in pain. Gohan and Piccolo powered up and attacks Brolly.
Trunks rushed over to his father. "Father get up you have to you are our only hope," Trunks said with tears covering his face. Vegeta was once again seeing flashbacks.
**START FLASHBACK**
Vegeta saw Bulma sitting on the chair asleep next to him after he nearly died in the gravity room. "She is so beautiful," Vegeta thought.
Vegeta's mind switched over to when Trunks was born. "My son, you will be a great warrior no matter what that damn woman says. WHAT!!!!! Trunks, what kind of name is that?
Vegeta then saw Trunks and Himself training in the gravity room. "It's been so long. My son is all grown up. He is a great warrior just like I said he would. I must get up. I must protect my son, and my mate Bulma," Vegeta thought.
Vegeta then saw Bulma and himself holding each other in bed. Vegeta felt a tear roll down his face. "That woman, I'm in love with her,"
**END FLASHBACK**
Trunks watched as he saw tears running down his father's face. "Father I love you," Trunks said. Trunks bent down and put his head on Vegeta's chest.
Brolly shattered Piccolo's ribs with a sidekick sending Piccolo into Gohan's back. Brolly watched as Gohan and Piccolo fell to the ground. Brolly evilly smiled and turned his attention toward Vegeta and Trunks. Vegeta opened his eyes and saw his son lying on his chest crying. Vegeta reached his hand toward Trunks head. Brolly charged down and kicked Trunks off of Vegeta's chest into the small mountains close to the castle. Vegeta watched as Trunks' face turned into stone as he landed into the mountains.
Vegeta struggled to get up and turned to see Brolly smiling at him. "Your son sure can fly far. I didn't even kick him that hard, weakling," Brolly said. Vegeta heard Trunks screaming in pain inside his head. Vegeta clutched the side of his head and screamed sending Brolly off his feet and far into the distance. Vegeta's body glowed red as he soon was engulfed in huge red energy ball. Brolly got control of his position and flew back toward Vegeta. Brolly landed in front of Vegeta and felt his energy rising dramatically. Brolly shot a blast at Vegeta that just reflected off the energy ball's wall and exploded. Brolly grew a sweat drop as Vegeta appeared from within the red ball of energy. Vegeta with his eyes closed floated in the air about 10 meters. Vegeta opened his eyes to reveal red pupils glowing down toward Brolly who was shaking in fear.
