Hello everyone, this is my second fic, my other one is FF8 related. I always like Gohan as my fav character of DBZ, but I wanted a way to make him awesome, without doing the same old thing everyone else seemed to be doing. LOL, I know it was kind of harsh what I did to set Gohan up with his/my perfect opportunity, but all well, I plan on this having a great story line, not just sex and power, so PLEASE Read/Review!
Gohan's Redemption
**************************
I failed… I killed them all. It's all my fault… Gohan looked out the window of his space ship, sailing through a vase endless nothingness, hoping to die, but not willing to kill himself for what he had done. Earth was destroyed, and I am the sole survivor, and it's all my fault. Gohan glanced out the window, not taking heed to the beeping on the computer board, or the electronic clicks of the computer main frame. His mind was totally centered within himself. Krilin, my friend, you helped my out on Namek more than anyone else, and now you are dead. Bulma, and little trunks, I had a lot of fun those few years, you always would get scared and scream, but it was more for show than fear; you had a lot more courage in you than you would sometimes let on, I think that's why Vegeta loved you; and now your both dead. Vegeta… proud and noble warrior, last surviving pure sayin, prince of my sayin heritage, dead. Yamcha, Tien, Choutzu, all great friends, all dead. Piccolo… my teacher and mentor, my second father… dead. Gohan's tears began to flow freely down his face now, but he made no move to brush them away, and continued on with his cryptic memories of death and shame. Goku, father, you are a true hero; you saved the earth more times than it's conceivable to believe. You…you should never have trusted your job to me, I failed you, I failed the earth, and now, everyone is dead because of it. I'm sorry…god I'm sorry for what I did, please forgive me…please forgive me…Gohan hunched over as the painful memories hit him, he had been floating in space for a week, a week without sleep, without food, and without rest, he hadn't left the window side ounce, he had failed a planet, and now that planet was dead, and soon, he hoped, so would he. Mom, you were right, I never should have trained, if I didn't, then dad never would have thought to make me fight, but now, now it's too late, and you are dead as well. You are all gone, earth; earth the planet I fought so hard to protect is gone, dead, destroyed, forever all because I was foolish. And now I will never be able to rectify what I have done, the best I can do is float in space… until I die.
Gohan had passed out, it had been over a week since he had been forced off of earth, and had hoped for death, not seeing anything else but to die for his sin, his sin of not protecting is home, his friends, and his planet. Gohan slumped against the window of his ship, the self starvation had finally gotten to him, and he was in a deep, fretful slumber, but his rest was anything but peaceful, he had repercussions of days ago, when he enjoying his time with his dad, they were fishing with krilin. They had completed there training a few days ago, and were now resting; because dad had found a way to destroy cell…me… but he failed, and his dreams shifted to fire, and death, all his friends burning in a raging inferno that he had created, it was his fire, the failure, his failure burning his friends alive, and engulfing the planet.
Gohan did not even stir more than groan when his ship smashed head on with a comet, and was sent reeling off the endless death voyage Gohan had planned for himself, instead his ship went careening out of it's former path, and spun on it's axis, before finally the ships stabilizers brought it to a straight path again. But the path of death was gone for Gohan now, at least the one he had chosen, because now he was about to crash onto a planet, that much like his home, was a planet of human like beings of primitive technology, but incredible power.
Gohan strained his eyes open, he saw through a haze a bright light being shown on him, and people surrounding him, all babbling in a weird language that he couldn't understand. Gohan's vision then darkened and he passed out again.
It's all my fault, I destroyed earth, it was all my fault…
Gohan awoke with a start, sitting straight up, he looked around, he saw he was on a small white hospital looking bed and was in an all white room. He looked down at his body and saw that he had all his clothes taken off, and just had a think sheet covering him up. Gohan blushed, as he started looking around for his clothes, wondering what was going on, and where he was. Where am I? This, this isn't earth…that was destroyed, so where am I? But as soon as Gohan started to swing his feet off the bed, an alarm went off, and almost immediately a swarm of people crammed into his tiny room, and started speaking a bizarre language, with what sounded like concern.
The hell? Gohan thought as he jumped up on top of the bed, with the sheet firmly wrapped around his waist. "What's going on here!? Where am I? Who are you?" Gohan shouted to the puzzled faces of the human looking aliens.
One of the alien's maid a gesture that Gohan took as trying to get him to lay back down. He reluctantly complied, but kept his eyes open for any tricks.
A man stepped forward form the crowd of people, he was tall, had blond hair, and a gentle air to him, he held in his hand a tiny piece of rubber, and motioned for Gohan to take it form him. Gohan reluctantly took the piece from the man, and looked at it, before looking back up at him, with puzzlement written all over his face. The man smiled, and pointed to the rubber, then pointed to his ear. It took Gohan a moment to understand what the man wanted. So, it's some kind of ear device, wonder what it does. Gohan brought it to his ear, and inserted it, it was a little large at first, but then instantly shrunk down, to accommodate for his small ear.
"Are you alright, can you understand me son?"
Gohan shot his head up in surprise, a language translator? Gohan nodded his head yes, and the man smiled.
"Good, we were worried about you, you didn't have too many injuries from your crash, but, you were almost starved to death, we had to hook you up to a machine to directly send vitamins to your muscles and organs to get you healthy again." The man's voice was as kind and gentle as his appearance was. He took a step closer to Gohan and placed his arms on the boys shoulders tenderly, "Come on, you should lay down, and get some rest, your body still isn't completely healed."
Gohan did as he was asked, his body suddenly overcome with weariness since the adrenaline rush of waking up to strange surroundings led to no danger. What is going on, where am I? Was all Gohan thought as he quickly drifted off to sleep, a sleep thanks to the heavy medication they gave him after he fell asleep, would give him the first true peaceful sleep he's had in almost two weeks.
Gobi slowly shut the door to the boy's room. I though for sure we had lost him. Gobi thought as he walked down the hall.
"Doctor, I think you better take a look at this!" Yelled a young secretary who was running madly towards him with a note pad in her hand.
The head doctor of the planets best hospital sighed. "What is it Nancy?" The doctor turned toward the young girl.
Nancy was young, very young to be a nurse, but she was incredibly intelligent for her age, she was thirteen years old, and was very beautiful, in fact she was one of the most sought after girls on the planet because of her scientific and medical prestige. "Well you see dr. this young boy, well after he was properly taken care of after his landing, I took the liberty of running some Ki tests on him, just to see were his power was compared to ours."
"And?" Gobi didn't like staying away from the laboratory room any longer than required, he had taken some blood samples from the young man, and was incredibly interested in studying it, to see how close his genetic makeup was to there own. But he was also curious to see what Nancy had to tell him about the boy's power.
Nancy gulped, and then continued, "Well, he, um, seems to have a power of approximately 753k."
"753 thousand!?" Gobi was shocked; he immediately rushed back to the boy's room and went in so fast he practically took the door with him. He walked over, and knelt down beside him, looking at him very startled. "How is it this child, has a power that only our top warriors on the planet has?" Gobi was shaken to say the least; it took their top warriors 40 years of training to reach that kind of power. How is it this young lad has such incredible power within him? And if he has that, I wonder what other surprises he has in store for us.
By the time Nancy reached the boys room, Dr. Gobi was already on his way out. "Nancy, I want you to go in there and keep your eye on him until I finish my research on his blood sample." Gobi hurried down the hall leaving a sputtering nurse in his wake.
"Damn him, treating me like I'm some kind of babysitter!" Nancy walked into the young mans room and sat down, "you just better stay asleep boy." Nancy said to the unconscious form, as she brought out a note pad, and began to scribble down notes.
