This Was Never Supposed To Happen (DBZ)
Chapter 3
By: Siren

Authors Notes- Ok everyone...now is the time that the story really picks up. Before the 3 stories were either the same, or very similar. Now though, they begin down their separate roads with the story. I hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer- Neither DBZ or SM belong to me. They belong to their respective owners, and I am merely borrowing their ideas for the story. The story however IS mine. If you wish to use it for anything, please ask first. I'll most likely be happy to let you.
Contest- To the person who writes the longest review, I will grant a prize I call the 'oracle' that's basically the right to one question, and one answer. It's just a little reward I thought up to give the people who take a little extra time to make my day, a little extra in return.

Goku's POV
**

There were grooves in the floor from where I had been pacing for the last 10 hours. The nurses had tried to make me sit, but there was no way that I could. My wife was in the other room, and there was no way that I could possibly help her. She had sent me out when I had tried to go in before, and left me out here. There was nothing I could do to help her anyway. I could protect her from anyone trying to harm her, and if a mountain fell on her head, I could probably save her. In almost every case that she could ever be in danger, I would be able to help her...except this. The doctors all said that everything would be fine...new medical procedures made it highly unlikely for her to die while giving birth. That didn't stop the lingering fear that there would be some sort of freak accident and something would go wrong. What would I do if Chi-Chi died? Or even the baby?!

I quickly jerked myself out of those thoughts. No need to dwell on those. I needed something else to think about...fighting...no I just wasn't in the mood to think about that now...

I snapped my fingers at my revelation. "That's it!" I nearly shouted. All of the nurses in the room turned to stare at me, worried. I turned a dark red color, and ignored the stares, and went over to sit down.

This was the answer to all of my problems. All I needed to do was think about what I was going to do with the baby when it was born. Try not to dwell on negative thoughts, and think about positive ones... Let's see...one of the things we can do together is watch cartoons! I smiled at the thought. I LOVE cartoons! Of course I would train with 'it' and 'it' would never have to study. Chi-Chi would be happy to let us play all day, and we would live in a world filled with sunshine, and..."

"Mr. Son...MR. SON!" A loud voice brought me out of my contemplation's with a snap.

I looked up, into the somewhat annoyed face of one of the female nurses. She looked like she had been standing there for a while. I winced at the expression on her face, and she wasn't happy about it. There was also the strangest expression on her face that I had EVER seen.

Glad to finally have my attention, she held a bundle out to me. I had missed it before, but now it had my complete attention.

It was a pink blanket, with something wrapped inside. I ever-so-gently took her, and handled her like she would break. Bright blue eyes caught my attention, as I looked into a little red face. "She's so small..." I murmured to no one in particular.

I laughed slightly as she gave a huge yawn, that completely scrunched up her whole face. She was perfect...and she was mine. A perfect little angel that I would take care of, and spend most of my life with. Someone I would raise, and bring joy... These thoughts that suddenly overwhelmed me blew my mind. I never thought about having someone's life literally in my hands...Sure, I saved the world before and all, but this was different. This was someone that would look up to me for guidance and protection, and for me to take care of. This was more than just another playmate, like I thought earlier. This was a responsibility, and I would have to gladly accept it...

"Hey Kristin." I said solemnly as she grabbed my finger. "It looks like we're going to have allot of hard times ahead of us, but I promise you this. No matter what happens, I will always be there for you."

I looked up into the face of the nurse, who on longer looked angry. "Is Chi-Chi O.K.?" I asked in a worried voice. I had forgotten to ask about her! What if something went wrong!

"She's fine" the nurse said quickly, forestalling any wild imaginings that I would think up if a few more seconds.

"Um...Mr.?" the nurse said, getting my attention. "We have found the strangest deformity on your child, and we were wondering if you want us to fix it for you."

"What's wrong with my baby!?" I shouted at her, jumping up and getting in her face. She seemed very uncomfortable in that position, so I backed up to give her room.

"We found a tail on your little girl, and we were wondering if you wanted up to amputate it." She told me in a slightly strangled voice.

I quickly lifted up the blanket, and my face turned white. My face turned almost the same color as the tail I was looking at...white.

The nurse seeing my face turn the strange color, thought that it was because of the tail, and not the color of it. "Don't worry sir. We'll get rid of at as soon as possible."

"Don't you dare!" I snapped at her. There was no way that I was going to let them lay a finger on my daughter! Just because the tail was white didn't mean that there was something wrong with it. It was most likely some type of a birthmark or something, and it was going to stay right where it was. She was not going to lose any part of her if I had anything to say about it.

I heaved a sigh of relief. I had my whole family around me, and nothing to worry about. Everything would be fine, and NOTHING could ever go wrong...
