Dragonball Z
Dance Of A Little White Feather
Chapter 9-Just Like Old Times
Goku slowly opened his eyes and waited a few seconds to allow everything into focus. As he slowly sat up, he realised he was in his bed. The last thing he remembered was dancing with Chichi the previous night. Goku sighed to himself, thinking that everything that had happened was just a dream. He nearly found himself with teary eyes, when a sudden smell hit him. His eyes widened at the scent and as he sniffed the air he recognised it instantly. He let out a huge grin and leaped out from his bed.
As usual, his nose never lied, for he spotted Chichi busy in the kitchen with Halo lending a hand.
"Mmmm, that smells so good!"
Chichi and Halo turned around and let out a few laughs as they saw Goku drooling at the sight of the cooking food.
"I was wondering when you would wake up." Chichi said, walking over to her husband and wrapping her arms around his muscular body. "I knew the smell of my cooking was too much for you to resist."
"Hai, it's my only weakness." Goku smiled, hugging his wife close against his chest. "I've missed it almost as much as I've missed you."
"I can vouch for that!" Halo called from the kitchen.
"I can imagine." Chichi said.
As Goku sat at the large table and Halo and Chichi served up the food, the other occupants of the house awoke.
"Well, I thought I recognised that smell." Gohan said, hoisting Pan on to his shoulders.
"Ah! Careful father!" Pan yelled. "Aren't I a little too old for you to be doing that?"
"You're only as old as you feel." Gohan replied with a smirk.
"In that case, I feel like I was 100 years old." Videl said, yawning.
"That was your fault for staying up too late last night." Gohan said.
"My….MY FAULT????" Videl snapped, whacking her husband's arm. "You're the one who insisted on…"
Videl was cut off when Gohan leaned to her and kissed her passionately, using one arm to hold her close to his body.
"I know, but don't you love it when I do that?" Gohan asked in a whisper, touching his nose on Videl's.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Chichi opened it and came face to face with Colleen and Taran.
"Who are you?" Chichi asked.
Colleen and Taran looked at each other in confusion.
"Oh Hi Colleen, Taran!" Halo said from behind her mother. "Don't worry mom, these are two of my best friends in the whole world."
"Oh, in that case, come in." Chichi said.
Colleen and Taran walked in and faced Halo.
"That's you're mom?!" Colleen asked in disbelief. "I thought she was dead!"
"Er…she is." Halo said, laughing nervously and putting a hand behind her head. "It's a long story."
"Man it's crowed in here." Taran said. "Who's the guy with Videl and Pan?"
"That's my oldest brother, Gohan." Halo replied.
"Oh, Videl's husband and Pan's father!" Colleen said.
"Yep. My second oldest brother, Goten, is still asleep right now." Halo said.
"But they're both dead too!" Taran said.
"Like I said, a long story." Halo said.
Gohan, Videl and Pan sat down at the table just as Goten came into the scene. Everyone took one look at him and burst out laughing.
"What? What's so funny?" Goten asked. "And why is it so dark?"
"I need a camera!" Halo said, running off into her bedroom.
"Yeah, talk about a Kodak moment!" Pan agreed.
"What is so darn funny?" Goten growled.
"Smile!"
"Huh?"
'Snap'
Halo took a picture of her brother and smirked and as everyone carried on laughing.
"Just tell me!" Goten yelled.
"Well let's put it this way, I didn't know you're hair had a life of it's own." Gohan snickered.
Goten looked in the mirror across the room and stared in horror. His hair had flopped down over his face.
"Ahhh! Where's my hair gel?" Goten yelled, running off.
Everyone burst into another fit of laughs.
"That look on my uncle's face was priceless!" Pan laughed. "Can I have that photo aunt Halo?"
"Sure, once it's developed." Halo smirked.
"Give…me…that…camera." Goten growled threateningly.
Halo let out a shriek before running out of the house with Goten in hot pursuit.
"Ran aunt Halo, run!" Pan yelled, following Halo and Goten.
"I'd better help before Goten kills his younger sister!" Gohan said, running off.
"But what about breakfast?????!" Goku yelled, chasing the rest.
Colleen, Taran, Videl and Chichi looked at each, sighed and shook they're heads.
*Meanwhile, at the Capsule Corps*
Tyler held his arms to his face as dust and small rocks fly at him. He whistled, deeply impressed by the awesome power up of his older brother. When the dust finally cleared, Tyler stared in awe of Trunks.
"Wow Trunks, that's so awesome!" Tyler said. "Super Saiyan level 2 is so cool, but I can only reach level 1."
Trunks smiled and ruffled Tyler's hair.
"It's great that you can reach Super Saiyan mode, it takes a lot of hard work to reach the next levels."
Vegeta smirked and walked next to his two sons and looked at Tyler.
"Show me you're power Tyler."
"It's not much to see since…"
Tyler stopped when he saw his father glaring at him. Tyler shrugged and powered up. As dust and dirt circled his body, he growled loudly and looked into the sky. His hair straightened out, flowing in the air currents and flashed golden yellow as did his eyebrows and his eyes charged with aqua colour power. Screaming out to the world, Tyler broke the barrier and went in Super Saiyan mode.
Trunks whistled and Vegeta smirked in approval.
"Tyler is a whole lot more stronger than he says he is, much more than he thinks."
"Like I said, not much to see." Tyler said.
"Well Tyler," Vegeta spoke, placing a hand on the teen's shoulder. "You'll be at the second level by the time we leave tomorrow."
"Really? You think so?" Tyler asked. "How can you be so sure?"
Trunks moved forward and whispered in his younger brother's ear.
"One thing you mustn't do Tyler; never question our old man."
Tyler burst out laughing and even Trunks laughed, but quickly stopped when they noticed a vein pop on Vegeta's forehead as he death glared his oldest son.
"Old man?!"
Trunks and Tyler looked at each other in horror and gulped, backing off.
"Uh oh…"
Gohan and Piccolo watched all the commotion the Z picnic was causing. Gohan let out the occasional laugh while Piccolo shook his head.
"It's just like old times again, huh Piccolo?" Gohan said.
"Yeah, annoying loud-mouths." Piccolo muttered.
Gohan looked at Piccolo in surprise.
"Considering the circumstances Piccolo, I would've thought you would join in the celebrations."
"Me? Celebrate Vegeta coming back from the next dimension? You must be crazy from being too high up in the sky for so long." Piccolo replied gruffly.
Gohan let out a loud laugh while Piccolo raised a concerned eyebrow.
"Dear kami Piccolo, I never knew you had such a sense of humour!" Gohan said between laughs.
Piccolo snorted in disapproval.
"I was being totally serious."
As Gohan finally calmed down, Piccolo looked at him and smiled.
"But I have missed you kid."
"Hai, I have you too." Gohan said, then glaring at his mentor. "And I'm not a kid anymore."
Piccolo smirked and rested a hand on Gohan's shoulder.
"No, you have your own kid to worry about."
"Just look at them Chichi, don't they make such a perfect couple?" Bulma said, looking at Halo and Tyler talking together.
"Just what are you implying?" Chichi asked suspiciously.
"Exactly what I meant." Bulma replied.
"I bet Vegeta wouldn't find that funny."
"You can't stop the magic of love."
"It might be working on those other two, Halo and Tyler's two friends."
"You mean Colleen and Taran?"
Bulma looked over at the two human teens talking and grinned.
"You know, I think you're right."
"Are there any prospects for Bra?"
"How should I know?" Bulma asked. "She never tells me anything about her personal life."
Chichi and Bulma looked up as Goku, Vegeta, Trunks and Goten walked over and sat down next to them. Chichi smirked as Bulma wrapped her arms around her husband.
"So Vegeta, how do you feel about being related to Goku?" Chichi asked.
Bulma snickered, Goku looked confused, Goten began breathing fast, Trunks choked on his cola and Vegeta stared in shocked then looked at Bulma.
"Why don't you go ask Tyler and Halo." Bulma said with a shrug, pointing at the two happy teens.
Vegeta looked then death glared Goku.
"What?" Goku asked. "What did I do now?!"
"I hate you." Vegeta replied, folding his arms and pouting while Bulma and Chichi stared cracking up.
"I can't believe the teachers are forcing us to go to that stupid dance!" Halo muttered. "For one thing, I can't dance and two I don't have a dance partner, so what's the point in me going? I'll just be left out and be bored all evening."
Tyler smiled and looked at his glass of soda to hide his blushing.
"I…suppose that…"
Halo looked at Tyler.
"What?"
"Oh don't matter, it's silly." Tyler replied.
"No go on, tell me." Halo said.
"Well, I kinda…don't have a dance partner either so…if it's okay with you…well…do you wanna go to the dance with me?" Tyler asked, blushing even more.
Halo giggled and smiled.
"Sure."
Tyler looked up.
"Really?"
"Sure, I'll go to the dance with you." Halo replied.
"Because I'm the only one who's asked you, or because I'm the only one left to go with?" Tyler asked.
"No, because you're the only one who's brave enough to ask me." Halo replied. "And because…well…you're cute."
Tyler looked at Halo, then fell over twitching.
"Oh my gosh! Tyler!" Halo yelled.
Bulma nudged Vegeta and smiled.
"See, we told you!"
Vegeta death glared his wife and muttered choice curses under his breath, mainly about the injustice of being related to a third class baka.
"Aww cheer up Vegeta." Bulma said, laying her head on Vegeta's shoulder. "It's not the end of the world."
"Yes it is, now that Goten and Trunks will be brothers-in-law." Chichi pointed out. "They'll officially be the twins of mischief."
Goten and Trunks looked at each other and smirked.
Vegeta opened his mouth to protest when suddenly, a loud screaming noise filled the air. Everyone cried out and clamped their hands on to their ears.
"What is that?!" Marron cried above the noise. "It's hurting my ears!"
"Hey look, up there!" Yamcha yelled.
Everyone looked up in the sky. A massive glowing ball of black energy was swirling and hovering above them. It looked and sensed evil.
"What in hell is that thing?!" Trunks asked.
Suddenly, the screeching noise stopped and everyone uncovered they're ears.
"What's it doing?!" 18 asked.
Suddenly, the black ball moved with lightning speed and impacted on Goku. It completely engulfed him in raw sinister energy and no one could break through the barrier it had put up around the Saiyan. They could see him screaming, but they couldn't hear it.
"FATHER!" Halo cried, running to help him.
When she was almost there, Vegeta grabbed her and kept her from reaching him. Halo growled viciously and yelled, kicking and struggling.
"Let me go! Dad needs me! Let me go damnit! Father!"
Piccolo was also holding Gohan back while Trunks held on Goten and Bulma kept Chichi away.
"Don't touch it!" Bulma shouted. "Who knows what'll happen."
"But it's hurting our father!" Goten yelled in fury. "It could be killing him!"
Suddenly, bright cold blue electrical bolts flew from the energy shield, sending the Z Fighters diving for cover.
"What's happening?" Bra cried over the noise of the lightning bolts.
Then, the shield exploded violently. It took a few minutes for the dust and dirt to settle. All the Z Fighters stood up and looked at each other, equally shaken up.
Suddenly, they all heard an evil laugh. They all stood their ground and prepared for a fight. The dust waved away with the wind, revealing Goku standing upright, looking fine, well it would've been Goku if not for a sinister smirk.
"Dad?" Goten asked nervously.
"Goten stay back!" Piccolo yelled. "That's NOT Goku!"
"Let me guess, mind control!" Gohan growled, clenching his fists.
Halo knew what they were saying was true, but her form quivered in fear. Not in fear of her life, fear that she would most likely end up fighting her father.
"G-Guys…if dad is being controlled by something…does that mean…"
"I'm NOT being controlled by anything!" Goku sneered. "I am who I was born to be from the very start once again. I am Kakarot."
Before anyone had a chance to gasp, Kakarot disappeared and re-appeared behind Halo. He grabbed her arm painfully and smirked at her.
"You're coming with me little girl."
"Dad!" Halo yelped. "Stop it dad, you're hurting me!"
"Are you deaf?! That brainless baka is gone and only I, Kakarot, exist now."
Kakarot's head shot up to the others who were stepping towards him. He grabbed Halo across her chest and held her up his chest and put one hand across her neck.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." Kakarot smirked. "Not if you value this girl's life."
Halo was in tears. She couldn't believe this was happening. She never imagined, even after what everyone had told her of the Saiyans, that Goku, her own father, would become evil and threaten her life. She prayed for it all to be a nightmare, but even her heart knew that it was real.
"Please…don't do this." Halo pleaded, tears streaming down her face. "Please, I'm begging you."
"Scared are you? Afraid of death?" Kakarot smirked, licking his lips.
"No..I'm not scared of death…I'm scared…for my father." Halo replied in a quiet whisper.
Kakarot glared then looked at the others who were watching helplessly. Kakarot moved swiftly and blind to even the Saiyan eye and grabbed hold of Tyler. Vegeta growled in fury and reached to punch Kakarot's face, but he disappeared to quickly.
"Now, if any of you wish to see these brats again, you'll do as I say." Kakarot said coldly.
"My father will never do as you say!" Tyler growled, struggling to break free.
"Quiet brat, or you'll be the only little prince here." Kakarot growled, using one hand to hold both teens and the other to grip Tyler's neck. "As I was saying, you'll do as I say if you want these kids back."
"Fine, what do you want us to do?" Gohan glared.
Kakarot smirked and laughed evilly.
"I want you…to wait until I've had some fun with these brats!"
With that, Kakarot disappeared using Instant Translocation. The Z Fighter stared at each other in disbelief and shock. Only Halo and Tyler could defeat Kakarot now and it would have to be on they're own. For not only had Kakarot left the area…he had left the planet…
Dun dun dun!!!!!!!!! What was that mysterious black energy? Will Halo and Tyler be able to defeat Kakarot and bring Goku back, or will there have to be a sacrifice to make it possible? R&R!!!!!!!!!! ^_^
