Will I break up Soyna and Goten after struggling to get them together..... Read and see. Oops, just about forgot to insert evil laugh here... HEHAHEHOAHEHEGWAHH! Hummm, more like a demented laugh isn't it... oh well.
Clarification points: Goku cannot transform anymore but is still a great force to contend with. He is after all combined with Shelong. Vegeta can now go all the way to level four, but he is still no match for Goku. The Gohan question.... We will have to see...but will fists be needed in this battle. Well, most likely, after all we are dealing with some of the strongest fighters in the world now, aren't we... or should I say universe.
It Never Ends
Part 2
Haunting the Present
Bad Day?
Goten was in a state of shock.
He looked to Junior for some sort of understanding as to why his sister was acting so loony.
Junior just shook his head and walked after her.
Goten looked down at the gift that he had gotten her. The gift of some very expensive perfume that he had wrapped in silver paper and a glittery ribbon. He had planned to give it to her as soon as she walked in the door.
But he had stood their stunned.
She had dashed into the house looking like she was out of breath and if she was a little scared.
He recovered from being shocked and stood and tried to give his best smile. She gave him such a startled look. "Soyna," was all that he was able to say before she straightened herself up. He held out the gift only to be ignored as she stormed out of the room and slammed the bedroom door behind her.
"What did I do?" he whispered.
Junior gave him a gentle pat on the shoulder before he followed his sister into the bedroom. He had hoped that she would not be mad at him anymore, but he had invited Junior over just in case. Junior always tended to dissolve her anger, but it didn't work this time.
He could just stand there crushed.
Why was she acting this way?
He put the gift down and slowly walked to his own bedroom. He did not know why he was so nervous or upset. If he had done something really bad, he was sure that he would have remembered it. But he was still nervous as he peaked into his own bedroom that he had shared with his WIFE for the past year and a half.
"Sis," he heard Junior's worried voice, "What's wrong?" Junior even sounded a little scared. He could hear her crying.
Was she crying?
Yes, she was.
He entered the room to see Junior sitting on the edge of the bed with his sister folded in his arms. She was shaking, she was crying so hard.
He slowly made his way to the bed. Junior had a very serious look on his face. Almost angry. That really made him look like Vegeta. Sometimes, that look spooked him. This was one of those times. Junior was not one to get mad or upset easily. He had tried his friends patience many a time but when you involved his sister, the Vegeta trait's sure came out of him.
He sat on the bed so that he could put a comforting hand on her back. Her whole body was quivering as she cried into her brothers chest.
He wanted to rip her from Juniors arms. He should be the one comforting her! Why did she shy away from him? He was her husband! HUSBAND!
"Soyna," he whispered.
Junior gave him a concerned look and in a low voice said, "I had only seen her cry like this when father died." If he didn't have green eyes, he could have sworn it was Vegeta looking at him. He knew that look was accusing. He wanted to know what he did. He surely would like to know too.
He stroked her back again. "I'm sorry Soyna," he said. "For whatever I did. I am so sorry." He felt like he was having to choke back his own tears as well.
She pulled back from her brother, still sniffing and holding one hand to her head. She looked at her brother and then at him. She winced as if she were in pain.
"What's wrong?" Junior asked.
She closed her eyes and she leaned towards Goten and Goten gratefully took her into his arms. She was still shaking but she was no longer having her gut wrenching sobs. It still hurt to see her like this but she was in his arms now and he was sure that everything was going to be okay now. She couldn't be that mad at him anymore.
"Soyna?" He asked, "What's wrong?"
She shook her head, only a few words came out of her mouth. A few words that he didn't really understand and then a clear sentence, "Just a bad day." In a low whisper.
Just a bad day?
A bad day was when Benot was yelling at Legen while Flare and Flint were teething. That was a bad day. What could cause her to get so upset? It couldn't be that she was having that bad of a day? He buried his hands into her hair and kissed the top of her head.
She pulled away sharply and looked at him as if he were a new thing. "Don't do that!" She snapped.
He sat there shocked. He was only trying to comfort her.
"Sis?" Junior said. She jumped at the sound of her brother's voice. He looked at her with a very concerned eyes.
She stood and looked back and forth between her brother and him. Goten was at a complete loss for what he was to do. It was just better to have him hit him and storm out of the room. He knew what to do then. He had no idea what to do when she was like this.
She took a few deep breaths. She closed her eyes and looked at the floor. He took this opportunity to scoop her up in her arms again. He hoped that she wouldn't pull away. Thankfully, she did not.
She was still shaking.
He held her as tight as he could.
"Hon?" Something he rarely called her. "You can tell me what's wrong. You know that I will always be there for you." He whispered. "Junior's here for you too. Soyna. Please tell me what's wrong so that we can make it all better."
"It doesn't matter," she said into his chest. "I'm here now. I'm here," she sounded as if she was trying to convince herself of something. "Other things to deal with." She gently pulled away this time and she looked up at him. Her eyes were still wet with tears and they shone but there was a gentle smile on her lips. "I'm supposed to be mad at you."
"Why?" he asked.
She sighed and pressed herself to him again and wrapped her arms around his waist. He could see that her tail swayed gently behind her in a calm manner. "I'll tell you later," she said.
"Is everything going to be okay?" Junior asked rising from the bed. Soyna nodded against his chest. Goten sighed and smiled. Junior still looked worried as he left. He looked as if he had much more to say but thought better of it.
He still wanted to know what upset her so much and also why she was supposed to be so mad at him.
He thought that he had her all figured out finally and then this happens. He lifted her and carried her back to the bed where he held her for a couple of more hours before sleep finally overcame both of them.
................................................
These people had a hidden history. The Z fighters as they dubbed, themselves. It was hard to find but he found it hidden behind delusional stories. It took him awhile but he got the truth out of old video tapes and tabloid newspapers.
It is amazing how oblivious people were to the dangers of the past. He learned the truth about Vegeta and the others. He only really cared about Vegeta but there had been a lot of evil turning good on this planet. He found that very odd.
It wasn't going to be that way with him.
His father had been a fool. He thought he understood how these people worked but he was dead now because of how he misunderstood that red hared woman. Father thought that the boosters would work and that kidnapping her children would work.
What a fool.
Didn't he know that hurting her that way, would only make her reach a higher level and she would be willing to put herself in further danger to save those that she loved dearly.
He had tried to tell him that, but his father always saw him as a child. He had told him. He had been warned, but would he listen. No. Now he was dead. Now he was left alone on this pesky rock with nothing else to do but to plan revenge.
He had much more information than he had when the first attack began and as he knew then, a direct assault was not the way to go with these people. They were strong beyond reasoning. No matter how strong their opponent was, they always managed to reach above that. He had to break them down from the inside.
He was busy working on the Capsule Corporation. That had been his hardest task so far. It was a very well established and well respected company. It was hard to start to undermine the first couple of deals, but soon, he would revel in its crumble.
Destruction from the inside.
That was the only way to go.
He didn't know how that woman came back to life. He was certain that she was dead. The amount of energy that went into that blast... but she was alive. Her being alive just fueled his anger even further and made him wish to hurt her personally.
Raymond, that doctor, he was sure was part of the reason that she was alive and the reason that no one showed any more signs of the poison that had weakened them before. Raymond had to have something to do with that. Raymond would be easy to humiliate and destroy. He was well into that plan but getting her would be more difficult.
Much more.
That was of course, until he saw the boy.
He had no idea how he was going to get them together but he had to find a way. He even managed to get the boy a job at Capsule Corporation, hoping some how they would bump into each other. But then, he didn't have to worry about that anymore.
They seemed to have found each other.
..........................................
"You scared her off!" Jamna said. "Man, what did you say?" Brennen shrugged. He was still in shock over seeing her fly off like that. "Hey, but you have her purse. You can go, like, be the knight in shining armor, man! Girls dig that sort of stuff!"
"Grow up Jamna," Mart said. "She is obviously not interested. It is best that he just mail it to her and be done with it. There is no point of hanging on to that pathetic dream."
"Hey! You are so, like, wrong man! This is, like, his big chance. He could, like, knock on the door, with, like a big bouquet of flowers and, like, this little purse, and wham... instant love," Jamna said with a big goofy grin as he pushed the hair out of his face.
"She called me young," Brennen said in a whisper. What was that about?
"Really. Cool dude," Jamna said.
"That is odd thing to say," Mart said.
"Oh, come on!" Jamna said as they continued to walk. "He has, like, a prime, no, no, super prime, opportunity here to be with, like, his dream girl." He snatched the thin leather purse and opened it. "You just, like, say, you dropped this ma'am and I was, like, wondering, if like, you would like to have a cup of, like, coffee with me."
Brennen felt an uneasy tightness in his chest as he snatched the purse back from him. He knew it wouldn't be that easy. She flew off. FLEW! He should just mail it to her and forget about it.
It would make life easier for everyone.
Wouldn't it?
................................................
Benot retreated to his room. Legen and Fry had taken over the videogames. Ba! He flopped on his bed and tried to block out the sounds with a pillow.
He could still hear the beeping and the ringing of those silly childish games that they liked to play.
"Turn that down!" He yelled and the beeping stopped.
He wanted to sleep.
The gift in the living room meant that mom and the wimp were no longer fighting and the fact that Junior took over the care of Flint and Flare was still yet another bad sign that they were no longer fighting but doing something else. He didn't want to think about that.
Gross.
...........................................
Goten felt a horrible chill as he held her. She was sound asleep now but she definitely was dreaming. Now, the whole time that they were married, she had maybe two or three dreams where she talked in her sleep. They were still left over nightmares from her past that crept into her sleeping thoughts. Those dreams, would stop as soon as he would hold her. Her whole body would just relax and rest.
She hadn't had a bad dream since.
She was having one now and his holding her didn't seem to ease the bad thoughts. She continued on muttering and talking nonsense. Well, most of it was nonsense.
That name wasn't.
Why would she say that name?
She was nuzzled close to him, but she said his name, instead of his.
Why?
He stroked her hair and her tail began to sway underneath the bed sheets in a manner that usually fascinated him.
Her eyes opened slowly and gently moving, she rolled away from him. She yawned and brought her hands to touch his chest. "I'm sorry for scaring you," she whispered sleepily. "It won't happen again."
"That's okay," he said even though he wanted to ask her why she was dreaming about... about... damn, he couldn't make himself even THINK of that name. But, it was just a dream. She was allowed to dream. He could do nothing about her dreams. She was in his bed, in his arms, not his, so it didn't really matter. Didn't it? "Just remember, you can talk to me. You don't need to run off anymore. I love you remember." It seemed really important to say that.
She looked away and sighed heavily. She was hiding something. That had to be it. He wanted to grab her and shake her silly but he knew that it would get him nowhere. She rested her head against the pillow and closed her eyes. Sometimes, he wished she would be a little bit more emotional. Her hands gently stroked his chest in a way that calmed in almost instantly.
All those thoughts were just silly.
That was all.
Things would be better tomorrow.
Things would be back to normal. She will be back to normal.
.........................................
I know... I didn't really answer many question's now did I?
We still don't know why she was mad at Goten, but she seems to gotten over it. But what about Brennen...? Is he going to try to enter back into her life? Hum. And who is this 'dude' that was researching the Z group and wants revenge?
Clarification points: Goku cannot transform anymore but is still a great force to contend with. He is after all combined with Shelong. Vegeta can now go all the way to level four, but he is still no match for Goku. The Gohan question.... We will have to see...but will fists be needed in this battle.
