One large foggy figure clouded Gotens sight as he opened his eyes. Blinking several times he realized just who it was.
"Dad!" he said. "W-What happened?" Now that he thought of it Gotens memory of the last thirty minutes weren't there. His body not wanting to relive that beating again had mentally blocked them.
"That doesn't matter right now Goten," Gokou answered softly smiling. "but what does matter is that you get your mother out of here, okay?"
Goten smiled back and stood up. Now they he could see the entire area he saw Trunks a little ways back lifting Bulma into the air and attempting to get Chichi as well. Vegeta was standing beside his dad with his arms crossed. Goten turned around in time to see the rubble of a building shoot into the sky, black streaks of energy shooting up as well. Goten turned back around and started towards his mother.
He paused. "Um, dad?"
Gokou turned his head looking to his son; he didn't need to say anything for Goten to continue.
"Why didn't you come home seven years ago?" He said quietly not sure if it was a good question, but Goten just had to know. Gokou starred at him for a second not knowing what to say. The question had caught him way off guard. Vegeta even had to put his ear in to listen to this. The taller full- blooded Saiyan scratched the back of his head then smiled at Goten.
"You know why Goten, and if you think it was because of you don't. That would never be the reason son." He continued to smile. "Now go get your mom to safety all right?"
"Okay daddy!" Goten said more happily, that was all he needed to hear. He turned and ran down the sidewalk shouting back, "I'll be back!" The once threaten feeling of being a bad cause was now off his shoulders. That would be something he'd never think of believing again. Seconds later he reached Trunks, Bulma and Chichi. Trunks was trying to carry both of them away, and wasn't having much luck. He dropped them when Goten landed.
"Look at you Goten!" Trunks said grinning. "You look like you fell into a meat grinder." Trunks started laughing pointing at his friend. Goten blushed slightly placing a hand behind his head. Chichi ran over to him picking at his ragged clothes.
"My little baby!" she cried. "What happened to you? Your outfit! Gotens this is horrible!" She slid her hand through his hair brushing out the dirt. Goten smiled and grabbed her around the waist gently lifting into the air. The boys flew their mothers to a farther part of the city about twenty miles from the battle area.
"I think this is good enough." Trunks said landing with Bulma in his arms. "Mom you can the capsule cars and stuff from here right?"
"Yes of course Trunks. Your not planning to go back over there are you?" She asked while reaching into her jacket and pulling out the capsule case. Bulma took out the purple one pressed the top and threw it. A pop sound was heard and a plane appeared. She turned back to Trunks hands on her hips.
"I don't approve of it Trunks, you know that, but I can't stop you. If you going to go just be careful is all I ask of you sweet heart." Her words turned out to be calm her hands on her hips were just a warning sign, Trunks thought. He gave a smirk towards his mother lifting into the air. Goten followed suit, barely getting out of Chichi grasps with out getting hugged to death.
"Goten! You take care of yourself! And don't try to do something you can't handle! Be careful!" Chichi yelled waving and crying at the same time. Bulma waved also holding back her worried look until after Trunks left.
"We should go now Chichi." Bulma called opening the door to the capsule car. She stepped in turning on the engine. Chichi got into the other side taking her seat with her hands in her lap. Bulma pressed a few more buttons and they rose into the air stealth like.
Gohan landed minutes after Goten and Trunks left with Bulma and Chichi. He dropped out of super Saiyan mode fading back to normal black hair. He stood between Gokou and Vegeta as Fooler came back into sight landing in front of them. He tilted his head to the side a rock sliding off. The bottom half of his jaw was missing, wires falling out into plain view. A few sparks shot out landing at his feet.
Fooler moved the top of his mouth around eyes narrowing slightly. A piece of metal flew over to him hovering for a brief moment before connecting with the top part of his jaw once more. He moved the bottom part of his face around getting situated. Reaching his metallic hand up to feel its smoothness.
"Hmm, Perfection every time." Fooler said. "I have to admit being fused with my brother did come in handy, don't you think? I can regenerate every time now, Heh."
"Well if your going to take like long to pull yourself together, then you won't be lasting very long against me." Vegeta said going Super Saiyan. Fooler crossed his arms and yawned. He looked at the Saiyan Prince unimpressed.
"How original. Could you at least show me a transformation that's useful?" He complained. Following suit with Vegeta, Gokou and Gohan went Super Saiyan also, ascending straight into the second level.
"One Super Saiyans not enough for you huh? Then what about three?" Gokou said his normal battle ready smirk coming across his face. Fooler yawned again covering his mouth properly.
"Sure. All's fair in your death match I suppose." he answered lazily. Without hesitation a moment later all four vanished in a flash of speed. The clouds opened up as the rain cleared out, and the storm faded away. The sky was replaced by the peaceful nighttime sky. Loud booms replaced the thunder, and sparks of energy filled in for the lighting.
There was a flash of gold light then a crash, which created a crater in the center of the once busy highway. Gohan got up dazed, shaking his head. He blinked the dirt out of his eyes and joined the battle once more. Only to be backhanded right back into the same crater. Two more craters impacted eh Earth on either side of him at the same time.
"Death flash!" Fooler yelled pointing his right hand at the ground. A brilliant red flash in the sky gave sign an energy beam was coming their way. With perfect timing all three Saiyans jumped up countering the large beam with their own beams. The struggle lasted only minutes. Fooler let out a cry placing his left hand with his right one adding more energy to his attack.
Rock began to pick up; the whole city felt like it was rising off the ground. The beam gained more speed pushing back the three other golden beams. This wasn't going to end know, and in knowing that Gokou placed two fingers on his forehead vanishing. Seconds later the city lifted into oblivion never to be seen again, until he dragonballs were called at least. All people who thought to be safe went in an exploding end, just as they had when Buu killed them.
Above it all Gokou floated holding Gohan in one arm and a very pissed off looking Vegeta in the other. The prince pushed Gokou arm off him growling in anger.
"Damn it! Why did you do that Kakkarott?!" he yelled angrily. His yellow brows narrow, he gritted his teeth. "I had him!" He yelled again.
"No we didn't Vegeta." Gohan stated truthfully.
"Shut up brat." The prince snapped.
"He's right Vegeta. Theres no way we could have made it out of that." Gokou said looking down at the ground where Satan City once stood. He frowned slightly upset. Knowing they could all be wished back helped in that department.
~*~
Only a few miles away Trunks and Goten starred with their mouth opened. The devastation had almost reached them only five feet away in fact.
"Hey Goten... That was close huh?"
"Yeah, whoa." Goten said slowly. He looked over to Trunks who looked at him, amazed.
"Wanna go now?" Trunks said.
Goten nodded.
"Uh huh."
And with that they left to go join their family.
~*~
As the battle progressed it because evident to who was on top. Unluckily for the Earth Special Forces the twisted one known as Fooler filled that spot. It seemed no matter how much they raised their power level; Fooler topped it and then some. Gohan had gone mystic losing his green eyes, and dull yellow hair color. At first when he transformed he had thought he was winning, Then Fooler toppled him by powering up again.
Gokou had gone Super Saiyan level three. Because he was more battle smart then Gohan he proved to be more of a challenge. Grabbing the alien tyrant by the tail he swung him in circles then let go sending him to Vegeta. Vegeta smirked raised his hands above his head, and then slammed Fooler on top of his head sending him into the ground.
Instead of hitting the ground he stopped gracefully rising back into the air. Gohan appeared behind him swiftly kicking Fooler on the back of his neck. The kick did nothing but make his head tilt to the side. The half- breed followed up with an energy beam to his back. Gohan hovered backwards until the smoke cleared. A gust of wind passes the boy, and something grabbed him collar roughly.
"So you like to play with the big boys, kid?" Fooler sneered. "Then try this one." He raised a finger over his head, like magic a giant ball of energy appeared.
Gohan looked up to see the ball of energy. He signed. "I have the worst of luck these days." Throwing his arms in front of his face Gohan prepared to... well to let whatever was going to happen. Off to the left another energy attack shot into the large ball and out the other end. It stopped gathering energy and blew up.
Gohan fell back on his rear once again squinting his eyes. Once vision was back in focus he could he his father fighting with Fooler. Then Vegeta appeared in barely able to keep up with the two He was out classed but refused to admit it. Gohan however wasn't so he sat out and let them play for now.
The hit that were being taken was incredible; sonic booms hit the sky like crazy popping up all over the place. Gohan crossed his arms dropping out of mystic. Gohan looked away and noticed another person coming into view. Gotenks was flying full speed at Fooler, already in Super Saiyan three mode. Cutting into Gokou and Vegeta fight, Gotenks kicked Fooler between his eyes sending him into the ground.
He crossed his arms and smirked proudly. "Ha! Surprise foot cannon attack!" he called down to the alien. He turned his head back still smirking.
"I saw you could use some help." He said. Vegeta grunted and threw an energy blast to where Fooler had hit the ground.
"Then if your going to help, make sure you finish the job." He said. Gotenks looked down into the whole and grinned sheepishly scratching the back of his head.
"Oh, right. I was, uh, just waiting until he came back up!" The boy said confidentially. He crossed his arms over his chest. They floated in the sky for several minutes and there was no sign of Fooler anywhere. He had disappeared. None of them believe that he was dead yet, that was too easy. Of course the normal rant from Gotenks that he had won come up, but he stopped when Vegeta smacked him on the back of the head and told him to "Shut up."
Gokou floated to the street landing gingerly. Keeping his guard up he walked around searching for an energy signal. A piece of rock fell beside him, making him jump. He shook his head and continued walking. There was no trace of him anywhere, unless he was there just masking his power. But why would he hide? Unless he could attack while keeping his energy down at the same time. That seemed to be impossible though. The longhaired Saiyan stopped dead in his tracks when a very faint spark alerted his body.
He frowned. Fooler could move around while keeping his energy to the level of zero, he was playing with him now. Another spark flared up behind him then went away as quickly as it appeared. He looked into the sky and saw Vegeta and Gotenks scanning the area, they hadn't picked up anything yet. To his other side Gohan stood looking around also. Gokou floated up and stood on the end of a building puzzled. His senses were buzzing like mad, but nothing was there.
Suddenly Fooler shot up out of the building behind him his right arm was out the left one supporting it. He smirked, as the Saiyan turned around to surprised to act fast enough.
"Remember this?" Fooler said. Invisible energy left his hand incasing Gokou inside of it. It was very tight and he could barely move, let alone get out. Gritting his teeth he tried to rip it open or even blow it up, nothing worked. He was trapped.
"Dad!" Gohan yelled rushing to his aid. Before he could make it an energy wave knocked him back into the road dragging on the ground creating a trench. Fooler rose into the air knocking the energy around with his tail.
"Do you remember the rules to this game?" He teased. Gokou never answered him he was trying to hard to break out. But he did remember what the rules were, can't touch nothing but Frieza, or Fooler. If he hits the ground he goes kaboom.
"Not---fair." He said.
"Oh and Saiyan, since my powers bigger then before it will be a larger boom, I don't think you'll be able to out run he blast this time." Fooler knocked the ball upwards then back down, he was playing volleyball with himself. Gotenks rushed over to try and help; when he reached them he attacked Fooler. He dodged easy, while balancing the Gokou energy ball on his tail. Then grabbing the boy by his head, (Gotenks saying a few choice words in the process) His hand began to glow pink, and so did the boy.
The fused half-breed yelled out as Fooler pulled them apart, ten minutes before their fusion time was up. Trunks started kicking at him and Goten did the same.
"Oh I'll let--" Before Fooler finished his sentence Vegeta rushed at him slamming into his side. Trunks and Goten fell lose in the sky. As Vegeta did this Fooler lost balance on his tail dropping the Gokou energy ball. Gokou plummeted to the ground, eyes wide in horror. When Vegeta realized what he had done he cursed himself, and turned away, he couldn't watch.
The ball touched the Earth surface. The contact caused it to blow up; this explosion was the biggest one yet. Goten and Trunks flew back Vegeta caught them before they could go anywhere and Gohan made another trench in the ground. Whatever was left of the city now, including any rock to the smallest pebble was gone. The plain was flat for miles. Vegeta and the boys starred down at the ground. Gotens eyes were wide but expressionless.
'There's no way anyone could have survived that.' He though over and over again. The angry feeling like before boiled up inside him again. He clenched his teeth a golden aura surrounding his body. A weird feeling of hatred filled his heart and he looked up at Fooler, who was smiling happily. The boy let out a cry of rage breaking from Vegeta arm. He charged Fooler, going faster then he ever had before. This was happening like a dream, Goten felt. Like he wasn't really there and someone had taken over his body. Savagely pounding into Fooler, Goten beat the living day light out of him.
Yelling in rage one more time Goten sent his fist into the fused tyrants stomach with the force of five Super Saiyan threes. Foolers mouth opened but to words came out, a little bit of blood ran down the side of his mouth. His eyes bulged out and his breath was taken away. Grabbing his stomach he leaned over trying to regain composure. The throbbing feeling didn't help much. He glanced up at Goten swearing the death of that kid when he felt better. Goten looked back at him emotionless, and hard very out of character for him. Then before he knew it Goten dropped out of what ever had possessed him and fell to the ground, his hair back to being black. The kid landed softly on his feet, then to his rear. He blinked twice confused, and stood up.
"Stupid little---Saiyan whelp. You're going---to DIE!"" Fooler yelled. "HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO ME!" His black aura surrounded his body furiously growing bigger every second. The entire planet started shaking with fury, Goten fell over again not being able to hold his balance. Back up in the sky, Vegeta was still holding onto Trunks. He shielded him from the trash that flew their way. The pretty nighttime sky had left, ugly gray cloud replaced it. His power was rising higher then it had gone before, it was surprising if the Supreme Kai hadn't have felt it.
Fooler's eyes were glowing red his body was covered in shadows making him look like something that just appeared of a horror movie. Placing both hands in front of him, one on top of the other, he concentrated energy into it. His aim was Goten, the small boy who had truly caused him pain. The boy that caused him not to be able to get his wish, the boy that was going to die this day!
In the front of his hands as the energy began to circle, it faded from a black to navy blue, then to red, all swirling into one. The force hitting the ground was too much for Goten to be able to move from. It felt like it was holding him there, trapping him. Goten flinched at a tire from tire from a car whacked him upside the head. That had to come from far away. He looked up watching as Fooler gathered energy into his palms. The Saiyan prince tried to get over to the alien but couldn't make it far enough to be able to get a hit in.
So he fired an energy attack, which just backfired hitting him in the chest, hard. He screamed in pain flying into the ground sliding away. Trunks ran to his side making sure he was all right. They looked up with Fooler screamed, "Black freeze flash!" A beam larger then they could have imagined, thought not enough to blow up the Earth, shot out of his palms. Trunks eyes widened and he tried to run over to Goten, but Vegeta held him back.
"NO!! GOTEN!!" he screamed desperately trying to get over there.
Helplessly Goten put his arms over his face and closed his eyes tightly. The heat was getting closer to his face it would be all over soon. Unknown to him he was yelling in fear, his eyes closed tighter then before. The ground around him was lifting up the beam was closer. Goten felt the heat from it tear into his body although it hadn't hit yet. Then right before the anything happened someone appeared in front of him. Goten opened his eyes seeing himself behind a shadow.
"Go-Gohan." Goten mouthed. The rest happened to fast for him to remember. The attacked hit Gohan first, burning into his skin, melting outfit away. He yelled out in pain and was thrown into his little brother. Gohan took most of the blast for Goten protecting him at the expense of his own life. A large portion of the Earth was taken out revealing depths no one had even explored yet. The brothers were thrown into a pit of darkness Gohan landing on top of Goten who know how far away. The plain had been expanded; the Earth had nothing left on top of it.
Everyone who was standing on it died, except for Vegeta who grabbed Trunks and took the air before any after shocks. Smoking rock smothered the surface refusing to clear up. The air was thick to breath and hard to see threw. Trunks coughed trying to get eth dust out of his lungs, they landed some miles back. Vegeta dropped Trunks and starred at his environment. He was at a loss for words. This many casualties hadn't happened since Buu. The lavender haired boy beat the ground with his fist, tears rolling down his cheeks.
"Goten 's gone." He said. Vegeta turned around and looked at him. He felt the same as Trunks did right now, but he'd never cry about it. Normally he would have told Trunk to stop being a baby, but not now. The boy needed to vent. Vegeta clenched his fist drawing blood into his hand. It was just him and Trunks who had to stop Fooler now. He gritted his teeth narrowing his eyes, but not in an angry manner.
"Kakkarott." He said slowly.
~*~
On the other side following the long dragging line of ground Goten and Gohan lay motionless. Gohans body was nearly unrecognizable. His out fit was singed, and torn in every spot imaginable, his hair was fried. No longer a raven black color, more like a dull ash gray. Under him Goten lay unharmed. He suffered from minor cuts and burses nothing serious. The little one stirred opening his eyes slowly, he went to push himself up then noticed Gohan.
Scurrying from underneath his brother, Goten rolled out sitting on his knees. Goten couldn't even tell if it was Gohan, he looked so bad. Placing a small hand on his arm Goten shook him slowly.
"G-Gohan?" he said. "Hey, big brother?"
There was no response. Goten squeezes his arm harder shaking it now. His eyes swelled up into glossy frames ready to spill out any minute.
"Gohan! Please! Please wake up!" Goten was starting to panic. He didn't like this feeling; he didn't like seeing Gohan not moving like this. He tugged at his arm again not knowing what to do. Goten looked at his brother in the face silently pleading for him to wake up. A smiled appeared on his when Gohans eyes finally opened half way. His pupils were fading in and out; he blinked trying to look at Goten.
"H-Hey-little b-bro." He said putting a smile on.
"Gohan are you okay?" Goten asked worried. He grabbed his brother hand holding it tightly preparing to help his stand up.
"No, I-I don't---think s-so Go-Goten." Gohan answered his eyes closed slowly, but he opened them again. He was fighting now, fighting to stay awake, for Goten.
"What do you mean---Gohan?" Goten said his face dropping.
"J-Just do---m-me a fav-favor, alright-l-little bro?" Darkness was taking him over now; he could feel his body giving away. Gohan smiled up at Goten once more closing his eyes.
"Wish---me-b-back. See y-ya---Go-Goten---" and with that he was gone. His head fell lifeless to the side his eyes no longer struggling to stay open Gohans arm fell limb in Gotens hand. The little boy dropped it back up away from his brother. He couldn't help but stare at him. Goten didn't blink his eyes stayed wide open, face expressionless. He was falling into a daze now, this wasn't really happening. This was a bad dream, a nightmare.
The feeling of being alone surrounded Goten. It ate at his thoughts, his feelings. Everyone he loved was gone now, Gohan, Trunks, his father, Vegeta, his mother and Bulma. He didn't feel their signals anymore. He was alone, by himself. A flash back of him playing with Gohan in the front yard entered his head. They were playing tag, and he was it. Goten could see his smiling brother clearly now. Always happy, constantly cheerful. But that was gone; there would be no more cheerfulness. Gohan would never be wished back, no one would. Goten wasn't a match for Fooler. He'd die soon also; Gohan just prolonged the inevitable he died for no reason it seemed now. Goten felt like he had entered a white void where everything was wrong. He was so out of it he never realized he had begun to power up on the outside. He never felt the rage inside of him start to tear out of his skin. The Earth began to rattle once more. In the pit of his mind, where he currently was, Goten wondered what was making such power.
He never knew it was himself. He never even heard himself scream.
~*~
Whats this? After losing everything has something finally snapped inside of Goten? Well I guess you'll have to read the next chapter to find out huh?
Bai.
So sit back and Enjoy~

"Look at you Goten!" Trunks said grinning. "You look like you fell into a meat grinder." Trunks started laughing pointing at his friend. Goten blushed slightly placing a hand behind his head. Chichi ran over to him picking at his ragged clothes.
"My little baby!" she cried. "What happened to you? Your outfit! Gotens this is horrible!" She slid her hand through his hair brushing out the dirt. Goten smiled and grabbed her around the waist gently lifting into the air. The boys flew their mothers to a farther part of the city about twenty miles from the battle area.

"Oh, right. I was, uh, just waiting until he came back up!" The boy said confidentially. He crossed his arms over his chest. They floated in the sky for several minutes and there was no sign of Fooler anywhere. He had disappeared. None of them believe that he was dead yet, that was too easy. Of course the normal rant from Gotenks that he had won come up, but he stopped when Vegeta smacked him on the back of the head and told him to "Shut up."
Gokou floated to the street landing gingerly. Keeping his guard up he walked around searching for an energy signal. A piece of rock fell beside him, making him jump. He shook his head and continued walking. There was no trace of him anywhere, unless he was there just masking his power. But why would he hide? Unless he could attack while keeping his energy down at the same time. That seemed to be impossible though. The longhaired Saiyan stopped dead in his tracks when a very faint spark alerted his body.
He frowned. Fooler could move around while keeping his energy to the level of zero, he was playing with him now. Another spark flared up behind him then went away as quickly as it appeared. He looked into the sky and saw Vegeta and Gotenks scanning the area, they hadn't picked up anything yet. To his other side Gohan stood looking around also. Gokou floated up and stood on the end of a building puzzled. His senses were buzzing like mad, but nothing was there.
Suddenly Fooler shot up out of the building behind him his right arm was out the left one supporting it. He smirked, as the Saiyan turned around to surprised to act fast enough.
"Remember this?" Fooler said. Invisible energy left his hand incasing Gokou inside of it. It was very tight and he could barely move, let alone get out. Gritting his teeth he tried to rip it open or even blow it up, nothing worked. He was trapped.
"Dad!" Gohan yelled rushing to his aid. Before he could make it an energy wave knocked him back into the road dragging on the ground creating a trench. Fooler rose into the air knocking the energy around with his tail.
"Do you remember the rules to this game?" He teased. Gokou never answered him he was trying to hard to break out. But he did remember what the rules were, can't touch nothing but Frieza, or Fooler. If he hits the ground he goes kaboom.
"Not---fair." He said.
"Oh and Saiyan, since my powers bigger then before it will be a larger boom, I don't think you'll be able to out run he blast this time." Fooler knocked the ball upwards then back down, he was playing volleyball with himself. Gotenks rushed over to try and help; when he reached them he attacked Fooler. He dodged easy, while balancing the Gokou energy ball on his tail. Then grabbing the boy by his head, (Gotenks saying a few choice words in the process) His hand began to glow pink, and so did the boy.
The fused half-breed yelled out as Fooler pulled them apart, ten minutes before their fusion time was up. Trunks started kicking at him and Goten did the same.
"Oh I'll let--" Before Fooler finished his sentence Vegeta rushed at him slamming into his side. Trunks and Goten fell lose in the sky. As Vegeta did this Fooler lost balance on his tail dropping the Gokou energy ball. Gokou plummeted to the ground, eyes wide in horror. When Vegeta realized what he had done he cursed himself, and turned away, he couldn't watch.
The ball touched the Earth surface. The contact caused it to blow up; this explosion was the biggest one yet. Goten and Trunks flew back Vegeta caught them before they could go anywhere and Gohan made another trench in the ground. Whatever was left of the city now, including any rock to the smallest pebble was gone. The plain was flat for miles. Vegeta and the boys starred down at the ground. Gotens eyes were wide but expressionless.
'There's no way anyone could have survived that.' He though over and over again. The angry feeling like before boiled up inside him again. He clenched his teeth a golden aura surrounding his body. A weird feeling of hatred filled his heart and he looked up at Fooler, who was smiling happily. The boy let out a cry of rage breaking from Vegeta arm. He charged Fooler, going faster then he ever had before. This was happening like a dream, Goten felt. Like he wasn't really there and someone had taken over his body. Savagely pounding into Fooler, Goten beat the living day light out of him.
Yelling in rage one more time Goten sent his fist into the fused tyrants stomach with the force of five Super Saiyan threes. Foolers mouth opened but to words came out, a little bit of blood ran down the side of his mouth. His eyes bulged out and his breath was taken away. Grabbing his stomach he leaned over trying to regain composure. The throbbing feeling didn't help much. He glanced up at Goten swearing the death of that kid when he felt better. Goten looked back at him emotionless, and hard very out of character for him. Then before he knew it Goten dropped out of what ever had possessed him and fell to the ground, his hair back to being black. The kid landed softly on his feet, then to his rear. He blinked twice confused, and stood up.
"Stupid little---Saiyan whelp. You're going---to DIE!"" Fooler yelled. "HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO ME!" His black aura surrounded his body furiously growing bigger every second. The entire planet started shaking with fury, Goten fell over again not being able to hold his balance. Back up in the sky, Vegeta was still holding onto Trunks. He shielded him from the trash that flew their way. The pretty nighttime sky had left, ugly gray cloud replaced it. His power was rising higher then it had gone before, it was surprising if the Supreme Kai hadn't have felt it.
Fooler's eyes were glowing red his body was covered in shadows making him look like something that just appeared of a horror movie. Placing both hands in front of him, one on top of the other, he concentrated energy into it. His aim was Goten, the small boy who had truly caused him pain. The boy that caused him not to be able to get his wish, the boy that was going to die this day!
In the front of his hands as the energy began to circle, it faded from a black to navy blue, then to red, all swirling into one. The force hitting the ground was too much for Goten to be able to move from. It felt like it was holding him there, trapping him. Goten flinched at a tire from tire from a car whacked him upside the head. That had to come from far away. He looked up watching as Fooler gathered energy into his palms. The Saiyan prince tried to get over to the alien but couldn't make it far enough to be able to get a hit in.
So he fired an energy attack, which just backfired hitting him in the chest, hard. He screamed in pain flying into the ground sliding away. Trunks ran to his side making sure he was all right. They looked up with Fooler screamed, "Black freeze flash!" A beam larger then they could have imagined, thought not enough to blow up the Earth, shot out of his palms. Trunks eyes widened and he tried to run over to Goten, but Vegeta held him back.
"NO!! GOTEN!!" he screamed desperately trying to get over there.
Helplessly Goten put his arms over his face and closed his eyes tightly. The heat was getting closer to his face it would be all over soon. Unknown to him he was yelling in fear, his eyes closed tighter then before. The ground around him was lifting up the beam was closer. Goten felt the heat from it tear into his body although it hadn't hit yet. Then right before the anything happened someone appeared in front of him. Goten opened his eyes seeing himself behind a shadow.
"Go-Gohan." Goten mouthed. The rest happened to fast for him to remember. The attacked hit Gohan first, burning into his skin, melting outfit away. He yelled out in pain and was thrown into his little brother. Gohan took most of the blast for Goten protecting him at the expense of his own life. A large portion of the Earth was taken out revealing depths no one had even explored yet. The brothers were thrown into a pit of darkness Gohan landing on top of Goten who know how far away. The plain had been expanded; the Earth had nothing left on top of it.
Everyone who was standing on it died, except for Vegeta who grabbed Trunks and took the air before any after shocks. Smoking rock smothered the surface refusing to clear up. The air was thick to breath and hard to see threw. Trunks coughed trying to get eth dust out of his lungs, they landed some miles back. Vegeta dropped Trunks and starred at his environment. He was at a loss for words. This many casualties hadn't happened since Buu. The lavender haired boy beat the ground with his fist, tears rolling down his cheeks.
"Goten 's gone." He said. Vegeta turned around and looked at him. He felt the same as Trunks did right now, but he'd never cry about it. Normally he would have told Trunk to stop being a baby, but not now. The boy needed to vent. Vegeta clenched his fist drawing blood into his hand. It was just him and Trunks who had to stop Fooler now. He gritted his teeth narrowing his eyes, but not in an angry manner.
"Kakkarott." He said slowly.

On the other side following the long dragging line of ground Goten and Gohan lay motionless. Gohans body was nearly unrecognizable. His out fit was singed, and torn in every spot imaginable, his hair was fried. No longer a raven black color, more like a dull ash gray. Under him Goten lay unharmed. He suffered from minor cuts and burses nothing serious. The little one stirred opening his eyes slowly, he went to push himself up then noticed Gohan.
Scurrying from underneath his brother, Goten rolled out sitting on his knees. Goten couldn't even tell if it was Gohan, he looked so bad. Placing a small hand on his arm Goten shook him slowly.
"G-Gohan?" he said. "Hey, big brother?"
There was no response. Goten squeezes his arm harder shaking it now. His eyes swelled up into glossy frames ready to spill out any minute.
"Gohan! Please! Please wake up!" Goten was starting to panic. He didn't like this feeling; he didn't like seeing Gohan not moving like this. He tugged at his arm again not knowing what to do. Goten looked at his brother in the face silently pleading for him to wake up. A smiled appeared on his when Gohans eyes finally opened half way. His pupils were fading in and out; he blinked trying to look at Goten.
"H-Hey-little b-bro." He said putting a smile on.
"Gohan are you okay?" Goten asked worried. He grabbed his brother hand holding it tightly preparing to help his stand up.
"No, I-I don't---think s-so Go-Goten." Gohan answered his eyes closed slowly, but he opened them again. He was fighting now, fighting to stay awake, for Goten.
"What do you mean---Gohan?" Goten said his face dropping.
"J-Just do---m-me a fav-favor, alright-l-little bro?" Darkness was taking him over now; he could feel his body giving away. Gohan smiled up at Goten once more closing his eyes.
"Wish---me-b-back. See y-ya---Go-Goten---" and with that he was gone. His head fell lifeless to the side his eyes no longer struggling to stay open Gohans arm fell limb in Gotens hand. The little boy dropped it back up away from his brother. He couldn't help but stare at him. Goten didn't blink his eyes stayed wide open, face expressionless. He was falling into a daze now, this wasn't really happening. This was a bad dream, a nightmare.
The feeling of being alone surrounded Goten. It ate at his thoughts, his feelings. Everyone he loved was gone now, Gohan, Trunks, his father, Vegeta, his mother and Bulma. He didn't feel their signals anymore. He was alone, by himself. A flash back of him playing with Gohan in the front yard entered his head. They were playing tag, and he was it. Goten could see his smiling brother clearly now. Always happy, constantly cheerful. But that was gone; there would be no more cheerfulness. Gohan would never be wished back, no one would. Goten wasn't a match for Fooler. He'd die soon also; Gohan just prolonged the inevitable he died for no reason it seemed now. Goten felt like he had entered a white void where everything was wrong. He was so out of it he never realized he had begun to power up on the outside. He never felt the rage inside of him start to tear out of his skin. The Earth began to rattle once more. In the pit of his mind, where he currently was, Goten wondered what was making such power.
He never knew it was himself. He never even heard himself scream.

Whats this? After losing everything has something finally snapped inside of Goten? Well I guess you'll have to read the next chapter to find out huh?
Bai.
