Dragonball Z
Dance Of A Little White Feather
Chapter 4-Future Repeats The Past
Halo forced herself to open her eyes. Slowly everything came into focus; she was in a white room, in a bed covered in pale white sheets and she felt loads of bandages and coverings all over her body. Her body also felt terrible, crumbled and excruciatingly stiff and sore. In her weakened state, she managed to lift her head and tiny amount and saw some people in chairs around her bed.
Halo shifted a little and disturbed the person sleeping on her bed.
"Huh? What?"
It was Colleen. She slowly rose up from her bent over position and turned to face Halo.
"Oh my gosh!" Colleen said. "Goku! Bulma! Tyler! Taran! Get up! Halo's awake!"
The other figures started waking and became alert the second they did as they saw Halo. Goku was the first to move. He practically leapt from his chair and knelt at Halo's bedside.
"Halo, sweetheart? Can you hear me?" Goku asked quietly.
"Yes…daddy." Halo said hoarsely.
"Oh thank kami your alright!" Goku said.
"You were in really bad shape when Tyler and Taran found you Halo." Bulma said. "You were barely alive. There were times when we thought that we had lost you."
"What do you think you were doing?!" Goku growled harshly, making Colleen back off and stand next to Bulma. "Have you any idea how angry I am, how worried I've been?!"
Halo choked up. She had never meant for any of this to happen, least of all worry her dad like hell and make him cross.
"I…I'm sorry daddy." Halo stuttered, tears welling up in her eyes. "I…just wanted…to explore."
"In the rain?!" Goku yelled. "Halo you could've got seriously ill or got attacked!!"
"I…thought that…I'd…be back before…I could get ill." Halo replied quietly, a sob escaping her throat. "I…didn't…know he…was still alive.
"Goku, you shouldn't be getting angry at her right now." Bulma said quietly but firmly. "Halo's just as hurt as you are and it's not going to help her recovery if you upset her."
Goku's glare instantly melted and he looked softly at his injured daughter, who had tears now sweeping down her pale cheeks. He moved forward and took Halo in his arms, holding her tight against his chest and buried his face in her soft hair.
"I'm sorry Halo. I've been so worried about you." Goku whispered, tears starting to fall from his eyes too. "I thought I was going to lose you like I lost your mother and brothers. Sssshhhh, don't cry now. Come on, I'm here, it'll be alright now."
Halo had to stay in hospital for over a month to let her body slowly get back to full strength. Tyler, Colleen and Taran always visited Halo and try to cheer her up. One incident, which stuck in her mind, was when Taran dared Tyler to take a stethoscope from an operating room, which Tyler did. However, he ended up screaming at the site of the blood during an operation he found himself in, got chased all around the hospital, fell down into the laundry and came back after scaring everyone cause he was tangled up in a white sheet and everyone thought he was a ghost. Least to say, Halo had tears from laughing so hard. There had been no more incidents involving Rogue, but everyone knew he was out there, waiting, scheming and planning the right time to strike. Goku never left Halo's side. He was always with her, every second of every day and night. He wasn't gonna let anything hurt Halo again, especially that monster which had caused so much terror before. He would wait for Rogue to make the first move, and then he'd fight him.
Goku opened the door to the house and walked inside with Halo held in his arms. Although Halo had been realised from hospital, she was still pretty weak so Goku would look after her while her finally recovery was completed. Once he hit the front door shut with his right foot, Goku carried Halo to her bedroom and tucked her up snugly in her bed.
"Is there anything I can get you Halo?" Goku asked.
"No thanks dad." Halo replied.
After a small silence past, Halo popped an important question.
"Um, dad, can I ask you something?"
"Of course you can Halo. You can ask me anything." Goku replied, sitting down on Halo's bed and took her hands in his.
"Well you know when Bulma said that there were a few times you thought that you had lost me, what did she me? What happened exactly when I was found?" Halo asked.
Goku took a deep breath and moved closer to Halo.
"It was one of the scariest moments of my life Halo, it really was."
*Flashback*
"Halo?!" Tyler called out.
"Tyler, I can just about feel a weak Ki over towards the edge of the trees of that forest down there." Taran said.
"Let's go then!" Tyler said, flying down towards the ground with Taran following.
As soon as they touched the ground, they split up and began looking.
"Halo? Halo where are you?" Tyler called.
Taran ran around some trees before stopping frozen in his tracks, his mouth open in horror.
"TYLER GET HERE NOW!!!!!!"
Tyler spun around and ran to where Taran was and he too opened his mouth in shock and horror.
"OH MY GOD! HALO!"
Tyler bolted down to where Taran was holding a bloody and broken Halo in his arms.
"HALO? HALO!" Tyler yelled, gripping his friend by her shoulders.
"She's unconscious Tyler and in very bad shape." Taran said grimly. "She's barely alive! We have to get her to your mother!"
Tyler nodded and held Halo's upper half of her body while Taran held her legs. Both blasted into the air and flew as fast as they knew how to the Capsule Corps.
"There's no way I can treat injuries like that!" Bulma yelled in shock.
"Then we'll take her to the hospital!" Tyler shouted, clenching his fists.
Suddenly the door burst open and Goku and the other Z Fighters ran in. Goku froze as he took in his daughter's condition.
"Oh god no." Goku muttered.
Goku ran straight to Halo and took her in his arms.
"HALO! HALO ANSWER ME RIGHT NOW!" Goku yelled in desperation.
"Goku, we have to get her to hospital!" Bulma shouted. "If we don't, she'll die."
Goku's heart was racing at an impossible speed as he realised the whole seriousness of the entire situation. It was his worst nightmare coming true. Halo, his daughter was dying in his arms and there was nothing he could do to help save her.
"I'll use Instant Translocation!" Goku growled.
Everyone held on to the Saiyan and he quickly transported himself and everyone to the hospital.
"SOMEONE HELP US!" Taran yelled as he and everyone burst through the hospital doors.
Doctors and nurses came running up to them and called to everyone else to get equipment ready for the unfolding emergency. Goku placed his daughter down on a bed and followed the doctors and nurses as they took Halo away.
"Tyler! Taran!" A voice yelled.
Everyone turned around and saw Colleen ran up to them.
"What's going on?"
"It's Halo." Taran said. "She's been attacked."
"Oh dear Kami no!" Colleen cried, putting her hands to her mouth.
"How? Is it serious?"
"We don't know how and yes, it's deadly serious." Piccolo replied.
Bulma put her arm around the young girl as she started tearing up and crying. The group followed where Goku had gone with his daughter and soon found him watching intensely just inside a small operating room as the doctors and nurses worked furiously to save Halo's life. But the young girl was getting weaker and weaker from all the injuries sustained internally and externally.
"Come on Halo, please come on." Goku muttered to himself.
He was shaking madly and his breathing and heartbeat were all over the place. Bulma walked in along with Piccolo and Yamcha. Yamcha placed a hand on Goku's shoulder while Bulma softly rubbed Goku's back, each offering their support.
Suddenly, a shrill screeching noise filled the air. Everyone's hearts stopped beating when they heard it because it only meant one terrible thing. The silence, except the screeching noise, was broken by a pained scream.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAALOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Yamcha and Piccolo bolted forward and grabbed Goku to prevent him running to his lifeless daughter. The scream had alerted everyone outside and they came running in to be faced with their worst nightmare.
"You'll all have to wait outside!" The head doctor yelled at the group.
It wasn't easy dragging Goku outside, but Piccolo and Yamcha somehow managed it. The last thing they saw of Halo was doctors running around her and a nurse doing compressions on her still chest.
Goku slumped against the side of the wall and slid down until he was crumbled up at the bottom of the wall, shaking fiercely as tears sped down his face. As Bulma and Yamcha knelt down to comfort him, he cried loudly and called out Halo's name again, but only silence answered his cry.
*End Flashback*
"I…I really died?" Halo asked numbly.
"You weren't completely dead, but your heart had stopped and you were on the very edge." Goku replied. "But the doctors managed to revive you and you woke up half a day later."
"Now…I understand why you were so angry with me." Halo said quietly. "I'm really sorry daddy."
"I know you are Halo." Goku said, hugging his daughter tightly. "But anything can happen so you must ALWAYS be careful and don't do anything so stupid EVER again okay?"
Halo nodded.
It was early the next morning. Goku was talking a brisk walk in the misty air before he had to start looking after Halo again who was currently asleep.
"Well, well, well, look who it is." A sinister voice mocked.
Goku spun and fury instantly boiled inside him.
"ROGUE!"
"So you do remember me, I'm flattered." Rogue said.
"How could I forget you after what you did?!" Goku spat, trying to keep himself under control.
"My, my, we do have a temper today." Rogue said. "I suppose that's cause I killed your precious daughter huh?"
Goku smirked.
"Oh believe me, Halo's very much alive and she's staying that way!"
"Hmm? Alive you say? Well she must be much stronger than I thought." Rogue said. "Even Vegeta, the powerful Saiyan Prince, was killed instantly by that very same attack of mine."
"I remember all too well what happened!" Goku shouted. "I remember the look on Bulma's face when I had to tell her that her husband was dead! It crushed my heart!"
Goku quickly found he couldn't control his anger and he had to let it go. He jumped into the air, transforming into a Super Saiyan level 4 while doing so.
"I'LL KILL YOU FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Rogue smirked and held up a hand, which started glowing black. A black aurora then wrapped around Goku and held him frozen.
"You know I could kill you with one thought Goku." Rogue threatened. "But where's the fun in that? Believe me Goku I will kill you, but not yet. We shall have our finally showdown, ALONE, at the Red Sand plateau 2 months from now. Then we shall see who triumphs.
Rogue slowly began to disappear into mist and Goku fell with a 'thud' on to the ground. Goku stood up and glared with a burning, uncontrollable fury in his eyes.
Goku was determined to win, now more than ever, even if he had to die.
That good? R&R and speak your opinions! ^-^
