Chapter 2: Preparation
Goku didn't arrive at his house until late that night. His clothes were torn, and he had so many cuts and scrapes it would make the mailman that delivers to the creepy old people with pitbulls proud. He winced as soon as he saw his wife, already knowing what was coming.
"GOKU, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!? I WAS WORRIED SICK ABOUT YOU, AND NOW YOU JUST DECIDE TO BARGE IN HERE AND ALMOST GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK!!!!" Goku couldn't decide which was more red; ChiChi's face or the Jell-O she made for dessert. "GOKU!!! YOU'RE DROOLING ON THE FLOOR!!!" ChiChi gave an exasperated sigh as she shoved her husband out the door. "Just get cleaned up!"
As Goku walked outside, he turned his gaze to the sky and singled out a star. Goku smiled as he remembered one of the last nights with his grandpa Gohan . . . . .
**************************Flashback**************************************
"Now remember Goku, some day I won't be here."
"Sure you will, Grandpa. You're the strongest guy in the world; you'll never go away."
Gohan smiled at the child's innocence. "That is true, child. Come outside with me, I want to show you something." The two walked out of the small shrine they called home and out into the night. Gohan pointed to the sky. "Look there, boy. What do you see?"
Goku looked a bit confused. "Just stars, Grandpa. Why?"
"When I look up there," Gohan's voice turned softer, "I see someone I loved who's not with me in body anymore."
The small boy looked up at his grandfather in bewilderment. "You mean there's people up there? Don't you think we should help them down?"
Gohan's laugh filled the night air. "No no silly. Those people have died. It's their souls that are looking down on us now. They watch over us, and, when we need help the most, they are there. You don't really see them," Gohan added, knowing what Goku's question would be. "You just know they are there."
"How?"
Gohan's smile turned rueful. "It's a feeling you get inside of you. Kind of like when you snuggle a blanket, or when the summer breeze caresses your cheek. Those are the souls of the past, who live on only in our hearts."
Goku's eyes were wide as he gazed upon the stars in a new light. Grandfather and grandchild slept under the stars that night. Goku waved to the people in the stars right before he fell asleep.
*****************************End Flashback********************************
Goku picked out a star. In all of the vastness of the stars, he had always been able to locate this particular star. It appeared in the sky the night after his grandpa Gohan died.
Goku smiled. He waved at his grandpa as he said, "Looks like you were right, Grandpa. Don't worry; you won't be alone for much longer. I'll be home soon, I promise."
With that, Goku walked off to clean himself up.
A/N: I know, it was a short chapter and it took too long to get out. However, I happen to think it's cute, so all you flamers, BRING IT ON!!!! ^_^0 Heheh, never mind that. I get a little crazy sometimes, but I swear that medicine the doctor gave me is the devil!!!!! Anyway, please review!!! Love y'alls and destroy the mimes, tools of Satan! *Hercule walks on stage* "Hi folks! I Mr. Satan, the slack-jawed yokel!"
