Meaning Of Life
Chapter Eleven: Choices
'Gohan…Ami…Hotaru…I'm sorry.' Makoto thought as she waited her death. 'But it's a small price to pay, ne?' Makoto was shoved out of her thoughts as she found herself in strong arms. She gasped and opened her eyes to look into black ones. "G…Gohan!"
The man smiled as he landed on the floor. "Baka." He whispered to her before letting her go.
The brunette blushed.
"Argh!" Chaos screamed as she looked at Gohan dangerously. "You fool I almost had her!" She looked back at Makoto and her glare deepened. "Are you going to hide behind your boy toy? We made a deal Mako are you backing out from it?"
Makoto glared back at chaos. "He's not my boy toy and our deal…" She looked around to see confusion in everyone's face and looked up at Gohan's eyes that clearly asked what deal?
Taking in the scene chaos almost fell laughing. "You mean you didn't tell them?" She asked deeply amused.
"Mako?" Bulma asked.
The brunette narrowed her eyes as she kept them on the smirking fool in front of her. "Shut up." She growled
"Me?" She pointed at herself. "I don't think so." She looked at Bulma and the others with a sickening grin. "Well, lets just say that I take her life in exchange you keep yours." She grinned when she heard gasped from all of them. "Good I like doing this."
"Mako you can't!" Ami exclaimed horrified.
Mako grunted annoyed. "Look I came here to get rid of her." She waved her hand towards chaos in a disrespectful manner. "The Queen and Pluto never told me what I couldn't do. She wants me and she will get." She narrowed her eyes more. "But if she doesn't continue with the deal kill her." She stepped forward but was suddenly pulled back. With eyes full of surprise, she looked up to find angry eyes.
"What are you thinking!" Gohan spoke to her calmly. "You're just going to give yourself up like that?"
Makoto took back her hand and looked away from him. "We have no other choice. Besides," She looked back at him. "This is my decision."
"Makoto." Ami spoke as she transformed into Mercury. Her now cold eyes looked down at the brunette. "Its Jupiter's decision not yours princess."
"Correct." Saturn's cold voice spoke as she looked down at the Jovian princess.
Chaos looked bored. "Will you please hurry?"
Suddenly Makoto turned into Jupiter with much dislike. Her hard eyes turned to Chaos. "I will fight you. If you can win you will have it. If I win," She grew an evil smirk. "I kill you."
Chaos narrowed her eyes before she smiled smugly. "Fine. Meet me where they fought cell in five minutes." She spoke before disappearing.
Goku looked at Jupiter and the other two senshi and frowned as he notice the emotionless faces. 'What was with these girls?' He thought before he was pulled out when Gohan spoke.
"You can't go!" He said with anger and fear.
Jupiter narrowed her eyes at him. "Look," She whispered harshly. "If you ever want to rid of Chaos I will have to go."
"Agreed." Saturn said.
"I don't care what you think or what you think." He spoke as he looked at all three of them. "You are suppose to be protectors right? What happens if you die? You take Mako, Ami, and Hotaru with you!"
"That is the price." Jupiter whispered. "Move." She said to the girls and with nods they were out the door and headed for the location Chaos choice.
"Jupit…"
Jupiter looked at him. "I will not fail her." She whispered. "You will see her again." She said before she left, leaving Gohan staring at the place she once was. He didn't even notice his mother behind him until she had placed her hand on his shoulder.
Gohan turned around and looked down at her.
Chichi smiled. "Go and bring her back safely."
Gohan smiled and kissed his mother's forehead before running out.
Chichi turned to trunks. "Go with him Trunks."
With a nodded the young man left.
