We Live to Die
It was a cold and windy day. A girl with silky black hair stood by a grave,
which was engraved with the name, 'Rini Satan.' The girl was short but not too
short. She had little streaks of blue in her hair, which matched her Cerulean
moonlight eyes. Her name you ask? Well this was our prideful Videl Satan, but
she wasn't so prideful today.
In all Videl's life she felt pain and sorrow striking through her body.
Everyday after a certain death (Her mum's) she felt worthless and cold. She
didn't want to talk to anybody, but then years past by and she lightened up
when she met a certain person and became more joyful…. but she would never
forget the most grief-stricken day in her life.
"Well mum just wanted to say hi… on your death day," she said as
tears skimmed her pale face, "I miss you so much…too much… I tried to kill
to come to you, but that soon changed at least most of it." Videl started
to think of the past and present years.
~* Gosh mother when you were gone I tried many things, but became bitter by the
moment as the world passed me by. Suicide? I tried oh so many times…I paid my
life with blood. Pain? I felt bitter and my pride took over. Emotion? I
concealed my heart, tears, and destiny. For some reason this is the only time I
cried. Even after all those lonesome years I still remember you words of wisdom
that you told me to cherish. *~
It started to rain and then it was pouring
"We live to die… even though after all those forlorn years, I still cant
get what you meant by those words…. Everyday I blamed myself for your death,
but I know that you don't want me to think like that," Videl whispered.
~*I cant help it mum…I just feel like if I was at your side in time I could
have saved you from all that happened. I just had to have you at my
tournament….I am so selfish. I killed you mum… but then I thought about it and
people kept chanting it wasn't my fault….until someone changed an angry,
miserable girl into a pleasant, and blissful person.*~
"My life changed when I met a real friend who didn't judge me for fathers
stupid fame or my facial expression…..Son Gohan."
~* Oh that silly boy. The first day I met him I knew he had a mysterious hidden
dark past. I learned he too lost a parent at age four, and eleven. Yes I know I
might sound crazy, but it's a long story about saiyans and dragon balls. Then
came along this evil monster, even worse than cell! Then came the Z-fighters,
and they fought with all their might, but it wasn't good enough. I remember how
Gohan's father said that awful sentence about how Gohan was dead…. I collapsed
to the ground. *~
"I kept saying, 'Why? Why? I should have told him…. we never had a
chance,' but I didn't, and I knew somewhere out there he was alive. Then these
little kids, Goten and Trunks fused and fought Buu. But then everything went
wrong." Videl said overwhelmed with tears.
Rain gets harder and wind blows softer with the rain
~*Then soon Buu got out of Gotenks grasp and killed us all. We searched for
Gohan everywhere, and I kept saying he was alive…. and wouldn't you know it. He
was. Well until Buu absorbed him and the others and Vegeta fought Buu and Evil
kid Buu destroyed the world, that's when he died. But then when the world was
wished back and we gave our energy for the spirit bomb that Goku made. (Thanks
to Vegeta's brilliant mind) I felt Gohan was there with me, like he wasn't dead
at all in the first place. *~
Videl sighed, "Oh mum I feel so safe with Gohan, I get all giddy and act
like I did before your death. Hai mum,
I can hear you laughing at me and chuckling as I tell you about my years of
both sorrow and joy."
~* Gohan…I remembered how you came up behind me at Kami's Look Out and wrapped
your arms around my waist. I was so angry and happy at the same time. I punched
you with my fist, even though you weren't hurt. After that we became closer*~
"Indeed we did Gohan, we became even closer. Don't worry mum you are not
forgotten," Videl said while laughing. "Painful memories swept my
mind during Majin Buu's reign of terror and agony."
~*Oh mum I wish you could meet Gohan. We became closer each day and our souls
will dwell on forever. Forever… such
along time…it seems like an eternity since I saw you, but you can see me right?
Yes you can.*~
"When playing with destiny, it plays too deep for me to say." Videl
said with tears in her eyes.
"And I prayed everyday that you would come back to me just like Gohan and
the earth, but I am not Kami, I can't play with destiny, too bad."
~* No I can't play with destiny…It's I you told me, we live to die…. And I
almost intended on ending life before other peoples lives ended*~
"We live to die…once again I repeat these words because they mean the
world to me and I keep on thinking what was your perspective on these words of
life you taught me." She repeated.
~* Yeah laugh it up mom your daughter is grown up, and is loved by my best
friend. Mother I look back on everything that happened and now I realize that
the world isn't that bitter, but kind of. Before Gohan and after you died this
whole life was worthless, pitiful, and agonizing. *~
The rain and wind go on with a rhythm
" Now I know what you mean mother, we live to fulfill our destiny that was
given to us by the 'Heavens' above our heads…some call it heaven, but I still
don't know what to call it."
~* Mother I now know these 24 hours aren't to be delayed, but these moments are
the most precious things we will get in life. We have to seize the moment of
life, so our soul can be free and we don't have to repeat life once more. When
we die we have people to mourn over us, but we are happy to be with our loved
ones. Exactly how many days have we got lasting? We will all meet at the
crossroads in life I can tell you that. *~
"I lived in a hateful world and wished I would just be sent straight to
Heaven with you mum, but I cant have you because now I have to live my fate and
destiny." Videl said as she looked at the grave stone one more time and
put her roses down next to the grave.
The downpour of water continued
"Videl? I thought I'd see you here," said a boy with jet-black hair
and stared at Videl with his coal eyes.
"Oh hi Gohan just thought I would stop by here," she smiled.
"I know how you feel Videl. I thought I would bring these to also pay my
respects," Gohan said as he laid some flowers down by the grave and
wrapped his arms around Videl's waist.
"Thank you Gohan why don't we go?" Videl said looking at Gohan.
"Ok…. oh I see you are still wearing that little ring." Gohan pointed
out on Videl's wedding finger. "Yes I will never take it off until our
wedding day," Videl said admiring her engagement ring.
Videl looked at the grave one more time. ~* Ah yes mother did I forget to tell
you? Gohan is my fiancée and were getting married in the summer…. just like you
and dad. *~ Videl giggled and walked off with Gohan.
From up above a lady was looking down at Videl. "Yes my daughter, its like
your reading my mind, but I miss you…. and you finally got what I meant with
those words my dear. Please value your life from what its worth. Live life until
you exist no more. And I am expecting a grand baby soon*~ Videl's mother
laughed.
Videl could have sworn she heard her mother voice say, "We live to die my daughter…"
she smiled. Gohan had also smiled
knowing that they were being watched form up above.
~* See you at the crossroads, Mum so you won't be lonely…we will all be with
you and I have high hopes you'll see me at the gate of eternity. Life is so
fragile mum, and I'll cherish every moment I get. Don't worry mum I now
appreciate my soul and treasure it with all my soul. *~ Those were the last
thoughts of Videl…but of course Rini Satan just has to have the last words.
~* Yes my daughter we will meet at the crossroads of life… Life is fragile
Videl, but I am so sorry I caused so much sorrow and grief for you dear…. *~
but Mrs. Satan's words faded away into the entwined rain and wind.
