Hero
Chapter 7
Disclaimer: Nothing funny this time, I just wanna tell you before the lawyers knock on my door, that I do not own any of the characters you are going to read about.
I saw Lita look through the glass at me. I started crying and looked at her in that way and let her know what had to happen.
"Nooooooooooooooooooo!" Lita screamed.
I knew what I had to do, and I had to do it fast. I set the timer for twelve seconds. Twelve… That's all I had left to look at her… Eight seconds were now remaining as I saw her banging on the door and screaming, and crying… Four seconds, as I waved good-bye to her… And I let myself fall out into space, and as I did, she screamed and wailed. I saw her disappear and then come in on my radio.
"Noo! Don't you dare! Come back! Come back!" Lita yelled into my radio.
"I'm sorry, but we both know that there is no support for two people, and I wish I could just kiss you again." I stated.
"You can!! Just come back to me!" Lita wailed.
"I'm sorry, but I can't." I replied.
"Then I'll come after you." Lita said as she left the radio.
I knew there was no other suit, so I began to scream into the radio for her not to do it. After a few minutes, I saw her at the door with only a mask on. She looked at me, and I knew I had to keep her away… So, I unlatched my cap, and took it off… My last words in my mind as I died out in space looking at her were, "Good-bye my love."
"Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" Lita screamed.
Lita fell on the floor, and cried.
"Not my hero! Noo! Piccolo!" Lita yelled.
Lita head a low rumble, and she ran to the front window. She saw a green planet and she knew she was about to crash. She looked at the coordinates, and she saw that they were heading to the Planet Namek. The ship became closer and closer to the ground, and she knew she had to find a way to survive. So she hid in the small compartment at the bottom of the ship. Lita heard the computer saying that they were about to collide…
Lita shut her eyes, and thought of Piccolo. Everything they had ever shared, and everything they had ever done. And soon, she felt the crash… A few minutes later, she opened her eyes and saw that she had been lucky that she had hidden there. The ship was completely destroyed, and she realized that the android would be coming for her soon. She ran out of the ship and saw the android standing there, staring at her.
He raised his hand, and blasted her with a small blast. Lita was pushed back into the ship.
"Where is my Piccolo?" Android 17 demanded.
"He's dead, so you've won. Laugh it up, you've won the battle!" Lita yelled.
"I know, I know! Ha ha ha ha! I won, I won!" Android 17 enjoyed himself.
"But you haven't won the war!!!!" Lita shouted as she threw a bigger blast at him.
"So, you want to die too? Okay then, here!" Android 17 fought back.
Lita was hit by the blast, and she gasped with pain. It had knocked the breath out of her, and she fell to the ground. Her body was torn and mangled as she lay on the ground trying to breathe. Lita filled her mind with Piccolo and everything about him. She couldn't give up now. Lita stood up, and placed her hands in front of her heart. She closed her eyes, and concentrated on her power.
A crystal soon formed, and she whispered a power line, then the light came upon Android 17.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Noooooooooo, you can't win!! You must not!" Android 17 screamed as he was defeated.
Lita fell to her knees and let the crystal go back into her. The battle and war were finally over…
Months had passed, and she began to know the people of Namek very well. She wanted to stay there forever, because that's where Piccolo was. After she had recovered from the android fight, she and some people from Namek had gone out into space and retrieved his body. They gave him a great ceremony and she had his tombstone specially made. It said this:
Piccolo
1986-2009
Hero
From the first moment your eyes met mine,
My hear was laid in your hands,
You stole every breath that I ever had in time,
And I know that you would never understand,
You were my hero because you saved me,
And you saved me time and time again,
You are something that I could never be,
And even for that I would never complain,
You were the wings that made me fly,
You were the dream that took me away,
You were the hop that gave me life,
You were my hero in every way,
You were my savior from the blackened hearts,
Your kiss made me forget my name,
Your love made me fall apart,
But everyday is just the same,
With you my hero.
Written by Lita Makoto for Piccolo
And that was the story. But Lita never missed a day to go to that grave, and neither did their daughter…
"Dear, this is your father, Piccolo was his name. He was a great man. In fact, he was the greatest." Lita explained.
"Hello Daddy, My name is Callisto." A little girl with bright green eyes said.
A.N. That's it! Well, I hope that you enjoyed reading this as much as I liked writing it. I am thinking about a sequel, but I don't know yet. Well, until next story, see ya!
