Descendants, Earth's New Hope
Disclaimer:: I do not own any of the Dragonball/z/gt characters. . .Just so you know. Well actually I only put this here because I have to.
"Two months." Kara picked up a piece of faded, pink wood and tossed it aside. "Two months, and nothing."
The three of them were at the island where Kara had learned the Kamehameha wave, and they were searching the shabby, abandoned house for a dragonball. Vegeta came down the stairs and sighed, "Nothing up there."
Goku came out of the kitchen, "I think it's safe to say there aren't any in this house."
The three of them walked outside. Kara turned and looked at the house. "You know guys. Now that I think about it. . .This place looks familiar."
Goku gave her an odd look, "Of course it is. I've taken you here before."
"No, no. I mean besides that."
"Goku?"
Goku looked around, "What?"
Vegeta looked at him, "What?"
"Who just said my name?"
Kara glanced at him, "It wasn't me."
"Is that you Juuhachigou? You've changed so much."
They all turned towards the voice and saw a large turtle, slowly approaching them. "You must be Juuhachigou. I haven't seen you in ages."
Kara stepped back nervously, "Guys. . .The turtle's talking."
Vegeta glanced at her, "No shit Sherlock."
"Don't you guys recognize me? Juuhachigou? Goku?"
"Look. . .Juuhachigou is my great grandmother. My name is Kara."
"Yeah, and you must be confusing me for my great, great grandfather Goku."
The turtle lowered his head and sighed, "Has it really been that long?"
Kara gave Goku a funny look then kneeled down and looked at the turtle, "How did you know them?"
The turtle looked at the house, "I used to live here. Goku lived here when he was young and Juuhachigou when she got married to Krillin."
Kara blinked and gave him a wide-eyed expression, "Seriously?"
The turtle nodded.
"Then how come you didn't know she was dead?"
"I left before it happened. I decided it was time to return to the sea and perhaps start a family." He looked around, "And I did. . .I decided to come back here for a visit. . .But they're all gone."
Kara stood back up and dusted the sand off of her pants. "Well. . .We can't really stick around here, we should get back to our search."
Goku nodded. A thought suddenly struck him and he looked down at the turtle, "Hey! Do you know what dragonballs are?"
"Oh yes, I'm quite familiar with them."
"You haven't happened to see one lying around? Have you?"
"Yes actually. It's back home, when I found it I decided to keep it as a remider of the old days."
Goku smiled brightly, "Please could we have it? We're trying to find them all so we can right a wrong that was done."
"Sure, anything for the decendant of Goku." He slowly walked towards the water, "Wait here, I'll should be back by tomorrow." He got into the water and swam away.
Vegeta sighed, "Tomorrow?" He took his bag off of his back and set it down, "Oh well. It's a nice break I guess."
"Yeah." Kara set her bag down then fell back on the soft sand and let out a relaxed sigh, "And what better place then a beach?"
"Someone's got to go into a city and buy some food."
Vegeta looked at him, "I'd rather not."
Kara looked up at them, "Don't look at me, I did it last time."
Goku sighed, "Well I don't really want to do it. . .Guess there's only one way to solve this."
They all put thier fists out and moved them up and down three times. "Rock, paper, scissor, shoot!" Kara and Vegeta put their index and middle fingers out while Goku kept his hand in a fist.
Kara smirked, "You win. Congradulations bro."
Goku sighed and took the money card that Vegeta was handing to him, "Fine." he made a pouting noise then flew off.
Vegeta gave a small chuckle and sat down next to Kara. "Beautiful."
"Well thanks, I try."
Vegeta turned his head slightly and looked down at her, "I meant the sunset."
She faked a sad expression, "I'm hurt. I guess I'm not pretty."
"No, you're not pretty."
That took Kara by surprise. Suddenly her sad expression wasn't fake, "I'm not?"
"No, you're beyond pretty. No sunset could compare to you. There are no words to describe it. Your beauty could best be compared the perfect night's sky."
Kara felt her face get hot, "Heh." She sat up and looked into his eyes, "You really mean that?"
He smiled and messed with her hair for a moment, trying to get some of the sand out. "With all of my heart."
She bit her lip slightly and looked away from him.
"Are you ok?"
She made a small sobbing sound.
Vegeta scooted closer to her and put his arm around her shoulders, "What's wrong?"
"I don't know what to think about you Vegeta." Her voice was quiet and strained, "What are your true feelings for me?"
Vegeta sighed and looked at the sky, "I'm not going to tell you."
". . .Why?"
"I nearly ruined our friendship once. . .I don't want to do it again."
"Please. . .I need to know."
He closed his eyes as she rested her head on his shoulder, "Kara. . .Ever since the first day we met, you've always been on my mind. When I'm not around you I feel like I'm loosing my mind because you're not with me. . .But when I am around you, I feel like I'm loosing my mind. . . because you're not with me." Vegeta sighed, "That doesn't make any sense does it?"
". . .I understand what you're saying. Vegeta. . .Are you sure that's all?"
"Uh. . .Yeah."
"You're a terrible liar."
"Kara." He took his arm from around her shoulders and looked in the opposite direction of her, "I'm crazy about you. Being just friends with you is, the hardest thing I've ever done in my life, but I know I don't have any other choice." He turned back to her and saw that she was looking at him, "I think it's safe to say that I've fallen in love with you."
Kara closed her eyes and a tear fell down her face, "Don't say that."
"I'm sorry." He put his hand against her cheek and with his thumb, wiped away the tear, "You asked me to tell you the truth and that's what I did." He took his hand away and sighed, "Just try to ignore it and forget I ever said anything."
"I can't because. . ."
He looked at her curiously.
"Because. . ." She bit her lip and tried to keep herself from crying.
"Kara?" He shifted his body so that he was sitting on his legs and facing her, "Because?"
"Because. . ." She looked at him, "I think I might have. . .feelings. . .for you."
"You do?"
"Yes. No. . .I don't know." She put her hand up to her face, "I'm so confused."
He put his hand on hers and pulled it away from her face. "Kara." He leaned in closer to her to the point where their faces were almost touching, "I don't want you to be upset about this. If you don't, it's ok. You don't have to force yourself to like me just because of the way I feel about you."
"It's not that. . ."
He let go of her hand, "Well. . .if you're confused, you should just give yourself some time to think abou-" His eyes widened as he felt Kara's lips on his.
Kara pulled away and sighed, "Sorry about that."
Vegeta swallowed hard, "Uh, I, uh. . .It's ok."
Kara shifted so that she was sitting on her legs like he was, "I think. . ." She took both of his hands into hers and leaned forward, ". . .I've made up my mind." She closed her eyes and touched her lips to his, nervous about how he would react.
Vegeta pulled one of his hands from her grip and put it on the back of her neck, bringing them into a deep, passionate kiss. The despair in his heart was suddenly filled with overwhelming happiness.
Suddenly Kara jerked away from him and scooted back a few feet.
Vegeta blinked and stared at her with wide eyes.
Kara straightened out her hair, cleared her throat and pointed up.
Vegeta looked up and saw a small dot in the distance, ~I was so distracted I didn't even feel him coming back~ He looked back at her and smiled.
She smiled back and shyly looked away, "So uh. . .that was different."
"Yeah. I liked it," ~Actually I loved it~, "did you?"
Her smile widened and she blushed, "Maybe."
"So what does this mean for us?"
"Um. . ."
Goku suddenly landed, in between them, with a bag filled with food, "Hey guys." He sat down and started handing them some of the bags contents, "Eat up."
"Uh huh."
Goku looked at Kara and noticed she was starring past him. He turned and looked at Vegeta whom was starring past him as well, "Did I miss something?"
