Chapter 4B: Riddles galore
Goku and Vegeta reappeared; their eyes scanned the living room. Vegeta immediately saw the flames of the candles and pointed it out to Goku. They went over to it and in the center of the circle of candles was an envelope. Vegeta crossed his arms. "Dammit" he growled.
Goku picked up the envelope, both of their names written in blood. "Hey, Geta, your name's on it too". Goku turned to face Vegeta.
"I was hoping it didn't; well, what are you waiting for, open it?" Goku tore through the envelope and took out a familiar looking card; he frowned as he read it aloud.
"I- I followed her home, crept inside but was. denied, she let out a cry, she didn't want to die. I knew she would fry, huh what . then it says, You will have ten minutes to find Mrs. Briefs TEN MINUTES! That's not a lot of time."
"Then quit wasting it, keep reading what it says, idiot" Vegeta glanced around the room, avoiding eye contact.
"Uh okay, sheesh; you'll get only one clue, when you find what it is, go there and you'll get another that will tell you where she is and to Goku. lots of love, dang"
"Kakkarot quit stalling what's the clue?"
"It says I've got the flu, it rhymes with that too, it's sorts new, without knowing that you'll have nothing to do. I'm blue not black it's not a cat or anything that rhymes with that. Find it soon or you'll lose".
Vegeta slammed his fist into the nearest wall, chunks of concrete flying into the air. Goku tried to stay calm "What the Fuck, dammit, that doesn't make any sense. What are we gonna do, we-we can't let Bulma die?" He turned to Goku who was deep in thought his face lit up.
"I got it, it rhymes with flu, it's new and it's blue!" Flu, boo, chew, shoe- shoe, Bulma bought blue shoes to match that ridiculous outfit Vegeta was already half way out the door when he realized.
"Come on Kakkarot, I know what it is." Vegeta ran down the nearest hall and into his and Bulma's bedroom, Goku behind him.
"There they are" Vegeta pointed to a pair of shoes. He picked them up a note rested inside it. Vegeta huffed as he took it out. Goku looked over Vegeta's shoulder, Vegeta's black eyes looked over to Goku's, Vegeta could see the fear. He ignored it and read the note aloud. "You'll never find me here, you have everything to fear, Water runs, so does the blood. You never brush your mane, your teeth are first, you can't look in a mirror because there isn't one here. I'm very near, but not here, is it me that you fear? What a crock of-" Goku raised an eyebrow. "The water burns and churns, Bulma turns and squirms. Find her, she needs you, she isn't too fond of water. what a clue, I'm lost I have no fuckin' clue to what it means." Goku shrugged next to him thinking it over, well trying he kept seeing Chichi in the bath tub, he shook away the thought though it wasn't bad, it's a lot better than any of this crap. wait. Vegeta paced, his eye twitched in agitation. Goku's innocent eyes met his, wide with joy.
"Hey Vegeta, I know what it is, it's the bathroom, Chichi brushes her hair in there, I brush my teeth and there is a mirror in there, oh and water from the tub."
"You better be right Kakkarot, let's go". They flew down the hall (literally). They soon stood outside the bathroom; a white door stood in their way.
"GAH! What's that smell?" Goku whined and covered his nose.
Vegeta coughed next to him "All I know is that it's coming from the bathroom." He eyed the copper doorknob.
Goku stifled a laugh "I hope that maniac didn't decide to leave us a present in the toilet".
"Oh shut up" Vegeta turned the copper knob and slowly pushed it open with his arm the rancid smell growing. Goku's voice came from behind him.
"Those cops probably think we killed Gohan."
"Neh, who cares we *cough, have more important things to worry about"
"Okay, but uh I'm gonna hold my breath." He filled his lungs with air his cheeks puffing out, Vegeta rolled his eyes, he is just as bad as Trunks and Goten. However, it isn't such a bad idea, he sucked in a good amount of air, he didn't over due it like Goku did. Goku's face flushed with fear, what if that's Bulma, that eek smell, naw it can't be Bulma isn't dead, Vegeta said so, I can't feel her ki but they do have a bond. Okay this is it.

Vegeta swung the door open, the stench stinging his eyes, ignoring the burning he reached for the card sitting on the white sink. He quickly read over it Goku tried to read it over his shoulder, he was seeing blurs. He wiped his eyes trying not to breathe in or smell the foul air. A soft cry came from Vegeta, startling Goku. Tears boiled over, tears ragged down Vegeta's cheek. The card dropped, Goku grasped in and read it over to himself.
'Dear Goku and Vegeta,
No matter how long it took you two to get here, she was already dead. She's always been dead to me a beauty's face in chunks. There is now also three more checks on my list that seems to be getting smaller by the second.
Tick tock, tick tock, times a wasting and the water is bubbling over with her blood!'
Goku's eyes went wide, oh no who else did that monster kill.? Water. the tub, he turned towards the tub, a scream caught in his throat. Bulma laid in the cherry colored water, what was left of her. Her skin in chunks in the murky water; her blue eyes gone, melted along with her hair and clothes, her mouth open in a silent scream. Her hands were grasping the side of the tub; her nails dug into the once white porcelain. Ropes held her there but quickly disappeared as her screams had. Vegeta stared wide- eyed at his wife, her once beautiful body melted, in pieces that laid in the bottom of the tub. Her beautiful scent gone, she was gone, she was gone, his wife was gone, again. The words repeated over and over again, no I- I can wish her back with the dragonballs I can't be a baby like that weakling Kakkarot. He wiped his wet eyes. Goku turned, his heart withering, like a rose seeing Vegeta crying was a sight to see.
"Vegeta?" he said softly then he felt a sudden ki heighten; he knew it, Master Roshi, the man who taught him almost everything he knew about fighting. "Something's wrong with-" then the ki disappeared. His heart rate quickened no they can't be dead. Vegeta's red rimmed eyes met his.
"What is it Kakkarot?" he asked softly rubbing the bridge of his nose briefly he already was out the door; Goku followed. Vegeta sat on the couch holding his head with his hands.
"Master Roshi, he's-" Goku never finished. "Why is this happening, if the person wants me dead why the hell haven't they killed me yet?" Goku raised his voice eyes narrowed.
Vegeta looked up from the ground, "Who ever it is wants to prolong the pain."
Goku's rage was almost to the breaking point I don't understand why this is happening. "Why? What did I do?" he cried as tears pricked the corner of his eyes.
Vegeta sighed sadly "Nothing, Kakkarot, you did nothing wrong"
"I- I just wish who ever it is who's killing everyone would stop, if they love me so much then why are they doing this why would they want to kill my friends, family, and me?"
Vegeta grunted "Are you dead yet?" Goku shook his head "No, it seems that who ever it is, is killing off everyone so that you can be let's put it in terms you'll understand up for grabs". There was silence in the room as Goku tried to digest the information.
"Then why not kill Chichi? I mean I'm not gonna fall in love with Gohan."
"Maybe they are associated with Gohan and he needed to be out of the way". Goku shrugged "Come on Kakkarot." Vegeta stood up. "Let's go to that old man's house and see if he's alive still, which I doubt."
"Maybe I should call Chichi and see if she's alright, she doesn't even know Gohan's dead and if I'm not home for dinner well, you know how she gets."
"Fine, but make it quick". Goku headed into the kitchen and picked up the white phone, he was about to put in the phone number when his mind went blank.
"Uh, Vegeta what's my phone number?"
Vegeta growled "You idiot, you don't even know your own phone number, It's 555-2182."
"Okay," Goku put in the numbers and put the phone to his ears waiting for someone to pick up.
"Hello?" it was Chichi.
"Hi, it's Goku, I uh have some bad news."
"Is someone trying to blow up the Earth again?" She asked, Vegeta cringed; I can hear that damn woman all the way over here.
"No, it's bad, but probably worse, gosh how can I say this, yea, you know that person who gave me those roses, well they killed Bulma and Gohan and we think that maybe-"
"WWWWWWHHHHHHHAAAAAAATTTTTTTTT?" Chichi screamed, Goku held the phone away from his ear. "How can my son and Bulma be dead?"
"Chichi, sweetheart calm down. Remember we can bring them back with the dragonballs" Goku heard a sigh from his wife.
"I know, but they're not trying to blow up the world?"
"Apparently not, Vegeta is here with me and we're at Capsule Corp and I think that Mater Roshi is dead."
"Good riddance I never did like that sick pervert. You had better not get yourself killed; you hear me because when you come back your going to have a nice little chat with my pan about pain."
Goku's eyes went wide, oh no not the pan. "Eek, uh Chichi, I'm not gonna die, you should be worrying about yourself, where's the boys?"
"They went to Krillian and Eighteen's house, Piccolo's over there too I think, how's Videl doing?"
"I forgot all about her, hey Chi, do you think you can go to Gohan's house and fill Videl in about what's happening Vegeta and I'll go over there as soon as we investigate", jeez me investigate. "What's happening With Master Roshi".
"Oh Goku, you sound so smart, it turns me on." Chichi purred.
Goku blushed, hoping Vegeta didn't see or hear that. "Uh Chichi, maybe we should talk about this some other time, hehe, be careful alright I don't want anything happening to you, I love you."
"I know Goku, I love you too."
"Kakkarot, hurry up!"
"Sorry Chi but I gotta go love ya bye." He put the phone back on the hook, he turned, Vegeta was leaned against the wall, arms crossed.
I heard that" Goku's cheeks turned red. "Come on". Vegeta, put his hand on Goku's shoulder and then they both instant transmissioned to Roshi Island. They stood at the front door of Roshi's island. There was an eerie silence, no laughing, no exercise videos playing, nothing, complete silence.
"Something's wrong" Goku looked around, nothing looked wrong, but it hadn't when they found Bulma and Gohan. A sudden wind passed them, Goku's untamable hair wiping across his face. He opened the front door and gasped as blood filled his senses, all he could smell and see. Vegeta growled next to him. Blood plastered the walls and floor, bloody body parks strung across the walls with knives. Goku paled as he figured out whom the body parts belonged too, striped fabric, Yajarobi. Green fabric and pink skin, Oolong. A familiar beard shown through the blood, Master Roshi. Goku forced the tears away. Five dead, FIVE of his friends and family DEAD! Vegeta's eyes wandered to a hand, a rose in its grip; the rose looked black, a note tied onto the side.
"Oh shit" Vegeta pried the fingers off of the rose and handed it to Goku, his name was written on it in blood. Blood dripped from the dark pedals. He opened the card and read it so Vegeta could hear.
"My dear Goku, I'm sorry to say that the call you made is the last time you'll talk to your-your lovely wi-wife. It's the last time you'll ever hear your wife's voice. She's next to me, begging me not to take her little Goten and your lives. I wiped her tears with my knife. I just killed your beautiful-" Goku's knees buckled under him as tears spurted from his eyes, "No, no, no, no, no" he sobbed, Vegeta kneeled down by his side.
"Kakkarot." he picked up the piece of paper from the ground and finished reading it. "The Namak's next" Vegeta mumbled.
To be continued.
