I knew that telling Mr. Yamato that his dead daughter was back into the living was going to be hard but I was never prepared to say such a thing. Gabrielle obviously wouldn't know either. I would have to admit this was one of the hardest things to do ever.
"What is it, Gabrielle?" He asked. And then the object of conversation walked in. She was wearing a dress similar to my own, which was crimson. Hers was evergreen.
"Hi, Daddy!" She said.
"Wha?? WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" He yelled right before he passed out. His chair fell backwards along with him.
"Oh…you didn't tell him, did you?" Angela asked, peering at the toppled chair.
"No." I said, shaking my head.
"What's all the noise?" Diana asked, sleepily coming down the stairs. "Who's that?" She asked pointing at Angela.
"Is that Diana? Oh she is so big!" Angela said. Diana gave her one of her trademark "uh-huh whatever" looks.
"Who is that, Gabby?" Diana asked.
"That's Angela." I said, barely believing the words myself.
"No way. That's not Angela. She's dead. You told me yourself." Diana said, trying to be rebellious.
"Yeah, I know I did but this really is Angela, Diana." I said, trying to convince her.
"I don't believe you. And why is Daddy on the floor?" Diana asked.
Diana was really cute. She looked almost like Gabrielle and me. Diana had very bright eyes. But the matter of my father being on the ground was a bit of a problem.
"Oh dear!" I said, as he fell to the ground. "Gabrielle, I didn't know that you were wearing this dress. Madison stopped and bought me this. That what's what took so long." I said.
"You still haven't truthfully told me who you are." Diana demanded.
"I am Angela Lenae Yamato. Twin sister to Gabrielle Lenore Yamato. Daughter of Rachel Dawn Yamato and Tomas Scott Yamato. Sister to Diana Aidiana Yamato and Scott Robert Yamato." I stated.
"I still don't believe you." Diana said flatly.
"I can't convince you, can I?" I asked.
"NO! YOU ARE NOT MY SISTER!" Diana yelled. "MY SISTER DIED A LONG TIME AGO!" She then ran off.
"Oh my that didn't go over well, did it?" Gohan asked. Gabrielle then hit him.
"Of course not. I expected worse." Gabrielle said, matter-of-factly.
"Oww…you didn't have to hit me!" I said, trying to act whiny.
"Be quiet…I am trying to think." Gabrielle said, leaning back on me.
"About what?" I inquired. "Oh never mind." I said, reading her thoughts.
"You shouldn't do that. It is invasion of privacy, you know." She said.
"Umm…what are you two talking about?" Angela asked.
"Don't worry, Angie. It's kinda hard to explain." Gabrielle said.
"Whatever, how are we going to wake Dad up?" Angela asked.
"I don't think you should, Angie." Gabrielle pointed out.
"No?" Angela mocked. "I knew that, Gabby."
"Oh dear!" The maid Joann said.
"Joann!" Gabrielle said.
"What is going on here, Gabrielle?" Joann demanded.
"Angie is back to life." Gabrielle explained.
"I don't believe it…" Joann said, falling to the ground next to Mr. Yamato.
"Oh dear!" Gabrielle said. "Now what are we going to do?" She bent down to examine both her father and Joann.
"Now what?" Angela asked.
"Well, I don't know, Angelina." Gabrielle said.
"Hey wait! I thought her name was Angela." I said, a tad confused.
"No, her real full name is Angelina Lenae Yamato. Gabrielle and Angelina, the dynamic duo of gymnastics. We always called her Angela or Angie." Gabrielle said.
"Angelina…I had almost forgotten." Angela said, in disbelief.
"I would never forget." Gabrielle said, in a quieter tone. "Come on, Angelina. I shall show you where you will stay. Stay there, Gohan. I'll be right back."
"I wasn't going anywhere." I said. Gabrielle and Angela walked up the stairs and out of sight.
"Gohan?" Diana asked, coming around the corner.
"Diana? Aren't you supposed to be in bed?" I asked.
"Yes, but please answer me this, since you love my sister…is that really Angela?" She asked.
"Yeah, Diana…it is. I promise to tell you how when you are older and can understand…" I said.
"It was your magic, wasn't it?" Diana asked.
"My magic?" I asked her.
"Yeah. You are very magical, Mister Gohan." Diana said, with a bright twinkle in her eyes.
"As magical as you are, Diana." I said.
Showing my dead sister her room was quite an interesting journey to say the least. I tried to remember what it was like with Angela around. After four years, you begin to forget, as sad as it sounds.
"Here's your room, Angela. Just the way you left it. Joann would come and dust it. Mom's stuff is in the spare bedroom next to the guest bedroom. If you were wondering." I said.
"Not really…I missed you a lot, Gabrielle." Angela said.
"I missed you too…and then I forgot…and then Scottie died and I remembered all over again…" I said.
"I'm sorry…I didn't want you to miss me so much." Angela said.
"It's okay. I hope your room is acceptable. At least for tonight." I said, walking back down the stairs to meet up with Gohan.
"Hey, are you okay?" Gohan asked. I hugged him.
"I don't know. This is all a little difficult to swallow." I said.
"Gabby?" Diana asked, walking out of the shadows.
"Diana?! You are supposed to be in bed!" I scolded.
"I'm sorry. I was talking to Gohan." Diana said. She sat down on the nearby leather sofa. I turned around to look at my father and Joann.
"Maybe we should just take them to bed." I said.
"Good idea." Gohan said, kissing my forehead.
"You are going to help, right?" I asked.
"Of course." Gohan said. We took Joann to her room since it was downstairs first. We set her on her bed, just taking off her shoes. Then we walked back into the parlor. Diana was asleep on the couch.
"I'll take Diana." I said.
"Good idea." Gohan said, picking up my father. I picked up Diana and we walked up the stairs. We took my father to his room first and then dropped off Diana. I walked down the stairs with Gohan.
"I guess you have to go home now…" I said.
"Probably. My mother is probably wondering. She knows where I am." Gohan said.
"Yeah…she's really a good lady." I said. "She sort of reminds me of my mom."
"Yeah…Well I shall see you tomorrow, Princess Gabrielle." Gohan said. We kissed for a long while and then he set off in the night sky.
"Goodbye, Firefly." I said. I set off to my room and put on my nightgown. I fell asleep almost immediately after hitting my pillow.
"GOHAN! Where on Kami's Green Earth were you?" My mother asked after I walked in the door.
"I was taking care of a big problem. And it's still not solved. I promise I shall explain it to you after I am finished righting all the wrongs." I said, crashing onto my bed.
"Please don't scare me like that again, Gohan. You're all I have left." She whispered, walking out of my room.
I didn't answer her.
As the sun was rising, I opened my eyes to find my father standing over me. "Hello, Daddy." I said, sleepily.
"Hello, Gabrielle. What is going on here? Diana says that Angelina is alive again. That's impossible. What is the meaning of this? Is this some cruel joke you fed her? If so, you better start explaining." My father said.
"Whoa…Daddy. Angela is alive. These things called Dragonballs brought her back from the dead. I know it may sound crazy but it's true." I said.
"Angelina is…alive…" He asked incredulously.
"Yes…Angela is alive, Daddy." I assured him.
"Is she here?" He asked.
"Yes. In her old room, in fact." I said.
"Oh…" My father said, rushing off.
"Daddy! Wait! Before you go upset her there is something you must know. Angela isn't quite herself. She's better than she was, but she has no memories after the accident. So please don't press her about mom. I know you want to know, and maybe someday she will remember but right now she doesn't." I said.
"She doesn't?" He asked, stopping in the doorway.
"No. She didn't even know Scottie was dead." I said.
"And how well did Diana take it?" He asked.
"Terrible." I said.
"One can only expect so much out of that amazing little girl." My father said.
"Yes, one can only." I said, sitting down on my lounger. Tragan wondered into my room. "Hi-hi, Tragan."
Tragan barked and followed my father. Tragan was a chow puppy, who was big enough to be called a dog, being only six months old.
I awoke to a world that had forgotten me. I was so nice to see the sun again. I loved being alive again. Everyone always said I died too early. Death was too soon. I slept very peacefully besides the memories that flooded my mind from the surgery and the accident. The day I went to competition without Gabrielle because she was sick. And I didn't even win.
"Angelina?" My father asked, walking into my room.
"Dad?" I asked, sitting up.
"Oh…my…Angelina." He said, walking over to me and hugging me.
"Dad…" I said.
"Are you feeling alright?" He asked.
"I've never felt better." I said, hugging him.
"So you've seen Diana?" He asked.
"Yeah…she looks so much like you and Gabrielle." I said.
"And you." He reminded me.
"No. She isn't anything like me. She doesn't know me." I said, a tad sadly.
"Angelina, I am so happy you are back. I missed you almost as much as Gabrielle did." He said.
"I missed you, Dad." I hugged him again, happy tears were pouring down my face.
"Don't cry, Jewel." He said.
"I am trying not to." I said, still crying.
"Oh…you're awake." Gabrielle said.
"It amazing to see the two of you together again. You two are so wonderful." My father said, hugging us both.
"Hey, what about me?" Diana asked.
"You two, Pixie!" Gabrielle said.
Everyone decided that it would be best if Angela stayed and caught up with Diana and my dad. I went and spent the whole day with Gohan.
"So how is life with Gabrielle?" He asked me.
"Okay. Angela is doing catch up. She's taking Diana to the zoo." I said.
"Ooo…she's brave. The zoo and Diana. I hope she's not a sucker." Gohan said.
"I hope so too, otherwise, she'll have no money." I said.
