Chapter 3 Saiyan Wolf

Chi-Chi was close to shore. She was relieved, almost knowing she'd be well out of Goku's life. However, a huge, freshwater fish attacked her, making her bleed even more. She screamed and swore. The fangs were sinking into her and it was painful. Biting her lip until it bled kept her mouth silent so Goku could not hear. She reached for her knife and stabbed the fish to death. At last, she reached the cave. Being very weary and weak, she crawled into the cave, quivering in pain.

Chi-Chi took a good look around the cave as she lay down. There were shimmering crystals around her, and a small waterfall blocked the entrance. She lay still, feeling her blood leave her. She blacked out, leaving her diary next to her.

Chi-Chi looked horrible. Her clothes were bloodstained and torn, revealing much of her slashed skin. What would happen to her? Another monster was heading her way. In her state of unconsciousness, how could she defend herself against it? A wolf, blessed with the power of the moon and the Saiyans had been roaming by. Long ago, when Nappa, Vegeta and Raditz were on Earth, they came across the wolf. The wolf had murdered the fourth Saiyan, a male named Kyucha. The wolf had absorbed Saiyan powers as soon as Kyucha's blood touched its tongue. That very wolf has come to take Chi- Chi's little remaining life.

Back to the fork in the road.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Goku's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh man. Chi-Chi, where are you. I can sense pain in your body. But I can't sense your thoughts. Chi-Chi, whatever you do, hang in there. I'll find you! I swear my life on it. I'm staring to think you left because of me. but I don't understand. What did I do? I'll figure it out. Oh. DAMN IT!!! I'm lost!!! Chi-Chi, I miss you. When was the last time we even hugged each other. OH NO! That's it! Chi-Chi has been sad lately, because I had never showed her how much I had loved her, how much I needed her. I never even tried to spend time with her when I had it. I was always fighting. Not once did I kiss, or even hug her since our wedding! After all these years, I have never even told her "I love you." How could she take it after all these years! What a horrible husband I've been. I do love you Chi-Chi. But it has been 2 days, and I still haven't found you. I hope I'm not too late! I'm so sorry. Hold on.

Goku sat there, thinking on which way to go, left or straight ahead. At that time, Chi-Chi woke up, and was being attacked by he Saiyan Wolf. She let out an agonized scream. Goku heard it, frantically flew over to the cave, and immediately kicked the wolf. Because the wolf held Chi-Chi in its jaws, the immense canine tossed the bleeding Chi-Chi against the cave wall, knocking her out against the cave wall, knocking her out again. Goku dashed toward his wife, but rocks from a cave wall fell upon her, burying Chi-Chi alive. "NOOOOOOO!!!!!!" Enraged, Goku became a Super Saiyan. However, his anger was too great to control, and instantly became a Super Saiyan 5!(Wow, Imagine those pecs!). Goku cupped his hands, for the famous Kamehameha wave, and hit the wolf. Retaliating, the wolf viciously tore away at Goku's chest.

The vicious battle raged on, however, Goku reigned victorious as the wolf fell dead. He immediately started digging away at the rocks, saddened, and infuriated at the sight of Chi-Chi. Her clothes could be considered bloody rags. He held Chi-Chi, feeling the chill tonight and tried to keep her warm. His tears could not be held back as they trickled down his face.

Goku ran his hand across her face, wishing he could have been there for her a bit earlier. He tried to get her to move, or something. But she remained still. He did something he had not done in years. He started to hug Chi- Chi. Crying and shuddering, he managed to utter an apology. "Chi-Chi.I- I'm so sorry. I . wish y-you c-c-could hear me. I love you so much." Chi-Chi miraculously, slowly opened her eyes and whispered, "Do you Goku?" Goku immediately tightened his hug, and shouted "Of course!" And Goku, the one who had neglected her for so long had done something incredible. He slowly leaned closer to Chi-Chi's face, and softly put his lips against hers. Goku was kissing her! Gradually, it grew into a deep, passionate one as Chi-Chi returned it. They stayed there until Chi-Chi broke the long kiss. "Why is everything so dark and blurry Goku?"
