Goku shivered. 'Is this what I've been
sensing? '"Gohan, Goten I'm going to the site. Wanna come?"
"Sure!"
The trio went out and flew to the air. They were about to fly towards the site
when Goku stopped. He flew again to downwards towards Chi-Chi. "Spare us
some supper, ok love?" he kissed her and flew again, leaving Chi-Chi.

Tokyo...
"Tell me! Where is our friend Usagi?
Answer me! Where did you take her??"
"Easy Rei, easy," Makoto
replied.
"But..but.. I'm Usagi, Rei. It's me,
look I got odangos see?" Rei is grasping Usagi's collar out on the
streets. They don't know what happened. They just got out to do some shopping
then Rei suddenly got her hands onto Usagi.
"No, you're not! You are quiet and
our friend is not! Where did you take her, you impostor!" Rei goes
hysterical.
"That's enough
Rei," Minako applauded, "one of this days, we're going to get you
your 'Best actress award' don't worry."
Rei eased her grip
on Usagi. "Okay, okay," she said while still eyeing Usagi who is
fixing her dress, "what's happening with you? You're not you when you're
quiet, especially when you don't whine." Sounds cool, but her friends well
know it that under all these is a feeling of concern for Usagi. Rei has been
right. Usagi is not like her since they saw that vision at Rei's shrine. It
seems that she is really upset but only trying to hide it away with smiles and
sometimes, she just avoids going with them often
"Just nothing
Rei. Don't mind me," Usagi smiled. "Why don't we eat? I'm starved.
Come!" she tugged Rei's arm to go but then, an announcement is there at
the big screen in front of them.
"Bad news for
the people of Satan city! Fifteen minutes ago, Satan Island exploded and disappeared
without a trace! The Coast Guard reports that a bomb..."
Usagi heard enough
and isn't hearing the rest of it. A shot of pain went across her mind. She felt
her body became numb and in a second, her vision went blank...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~~*~*~*~*~*~*
Island site...
Gohan was stunned. He looked everywhere.
The news has been right, no trace. No trace at all...
"Gohan? Are
you okay?" Goten noticed the expression on his brother's face and went up
to his altitude.
"Videl..."
Gohan started, "she told me that she's going here. Probably she IS here.
But..." he is close to tears. Then he felt a comforting hand on his
shoulder.
It's Goku.
"We'll find her," he said. Gohan nodded and in a flash, the trio went
underwater.
The ocean is deep.
They swam deeper and it's not long before they saw pieces of the island. Rocks,
soil, pieces of furniture, crumbled walls, portraits of Mr. Satan and
Videl...they searched the area for bodies of possible victims.
Goku went further in
search of clues to what caused the explosion. 'What could have caused this?' he
swam further until he saw what he is looking for... Goku stared speechless at
what he discovered. 'This is a..a...' he carried the thing and surfaced for air
and to have a good look at it. He stared at it. He sensed it again. He felt
fear for something that he doesn't know.
It was not long
before Goten surfaced. "What's that?" he looked at it,
"AAAhhhh!!! That's an atomic bomb!"
"An atomic
bomb?" Goku, not knowing much about nuclear weapons, asked.
"Yes, it's an
atomic bomb. I learned it from school last week. No wonder that Mr. Satan's
'little' island exploded that way." Goten touched the outline of the
weapon. For a 17 year old, this is something to touch amazement. 'Kewl...'
"What did you
find?" It was Gohan who surfaced. "That's an atomic bomb! Where did
you get it?"
"Papa saw it.
Guess this was the cause of the explosion."
"This is
horrible."
"What about you?
Did you find any corpse?" Goku asked.
"I found Mr.
Satan's..." Goten was hesitant to tell the rest of the statement. 'Should
I tell them? This is horrible I almost threw up. Yuck. Thinking of it makes me
sick. Ha! If ever Trunks can hear me, he would laugh at me for being a chicken.
But what can I do? Oh...here am I again, babbling in my head. Should I tell
them? Should I? Should I?'
"Goten?"
"Yes?"
'Uh-oh'
"What did you
find?" Gohan was eager to know. Mr. Satan was not exactly his type of a
father-in-law but still they are related.
'Here goes nothing.'
"I-Ifoundhisheadwithoutaneyeandabrokennose"
Goku and Gohan stared
at him. "Will you please say it slowly?" Goku said.
"I found his head
without an eye and a broken nose. There, I said it. It's disgusting isn't it?
Do you think I'm happy with what I saw? I know I'm strong but I still couldn't
stand humans' death and destruction. Shame to whoever did this! Shame to that
animal!" Goten couldn't stop it. The words flowed from his mouth like
waterfalls.
"It's okay
Goten," Gohan replied, "did-did you see any sign of Videl?"
Goten was about to answer 'No' when a shadow flew above them.
"GOHAN!!!!!"
Gohan lightened up when
he realized who just called him. "VIDEL!!!!" he immediately flew
upwards to meet with his wife. He kissed her directly on the lips. "I-I
was worried sick about you! I thought you were at the house when it blew up. I
thought..."
"Now, now Gohan.
I'm alright," Videl hugged her husband. "Did you see father?"
"Uh...uh..."
Gohan chided. He doesn't want to be the one to break the news regardless of the
fact that he, as a husband, should be the one doing it. "Goten was
actually the one who saw it. So...uh...it would be better if he would be the
one telling you," with that, Gohan and Videl flew downwards.
"Goten, did you
see my father? Where is his body?" Videl asked.
The question shocked
Goten a bit. He glared at his brother who just smiled. "DID I JUST TELL
YOU THAT I HATE RELATING WHAT I SAW?! DID I JUST TELL YOU THAT IT'S SO INHUMANE
TO SEE A HEAD APART FROM ITS BODY, WITH ONLY AN EYE AND A BROKEN NOSE?!?!"
There, he said it anyway. Guess Goten is not yet *that* tough when it comes to
those things ^_~!
Videl is heartbroken.
His father may be regarded as weak but he has been tough enough to raise her
alone. He has been a good father to her. Death is such a thief. But Videl
struggled to be strong.
She looked up to face
everyone. Even with tears in her eyes, she said, "I'm okay. Let's just
leave the corpse underwater." Videl eyed the bomb that Goku carried.
"So an atomic bomb had caused this explosion...but by whom? Who did this?
Who?

Tokyo...
Usagi had gained
consciousness shortly after she fainted. Her friends brought her to a nearby
bench and let her have a drink. "What happened?" asked Ami.
Usagi is better
now. "Just got a terrible headache in a matter of 5 seconds," then
she smiled, "honestly, I'm starving now." Ahhs and Ohhs came up then
they all decided to eat.
But yet, another
announcement came up. There is just a blank black screen and a bellowing voice,
"People of Japan, hear me. To the whole world I speak. Now that your great
Master Satan is gone, I shall rule. Mark this say, my dear people. This is the day
when my kingdom shall reign over the world and its people.
Ha!ha!ha!ha!ha!"
The people listening
haven't gotten over their initial shock over the announcement, when they heard
loud noises over them. They looked up and saw...some 20 fighter jet planes threatening
the city below.
Usagi, Minako, Ami,
Makoto and Rei turned to another direction in the sky and what caught their
attention is a fairly huge fighter plane flying uncontrollably up in the sky.
They watched intently, more like by force for they are rooted on the ground on
where they stand. Their minds whirled at different ideas that come in their
heads. 'What's happening?' They dared to speak but no words came out.
In horror, they
watched. The plane is in smoke and it glided directly to the Great Satan Inc.
Tower. In a matter of seconds, the 95-floor skyscraper exploded!
That's it. Is it good or bad? Newayz, I
like to ask you some suggestions in the pairing with Goten and Trunks. Or maybe
Piccolo… as you can see, Goku of course has his Chi-Chi, Vegeta—Bulma,
Gohan—Videl [who says there's no Videl?]… Or any other suggestions are
accepted. Just Review. ^. ^!
