A/N: Sorry I haven't been updating lately. There's a lot of stuff I have
to do with work & all. I'll try to be more consistent.
~The Truth~
Gogeta landed before I did.
There he was, lying on the ground face down. He looked dead. He was covered in blood and was deathly pale. His clothes were ripped. I ran over to my bruised brother.
I knelt beside his limp figure. Tears welled up in my eyes. I glanced over at Gogeta. She was looking away from me. Her mouth was slightly ajar. I looked in the direction she was.
::::::::::::::::Gogeta's POV ::::::::::::::
He just stood there, staring at me. How could he do this? What kind of people was I dealing with? His eyes were so cold. It was like he couldn't feel.
"Are you just going to stand there staring at me all day or are you going to fight me?" he asked coldly.
I smirked. I do have a little of my Vageta side in me. "I choose the latter."
"Good."
My eyes narrowed. I got in a fighting stance. Suddenly, a figure that looked like Lei, only different, struck me across the face with a metal staff. I didn't even get time to gasp in my surprise. Now, you'd think the metal would've just broken off, and that nothing would've affected me. But this hurt. This metal didn't break.
I flew back about thirty yards before I regained my focus. I felt the left side of my face. It stung with blood from a cut. My eyebrows contracted. I growled. No one hits ME with a metal stick!
I got up and quickly charged the "Lei-look-a-like" while levitating a few inches in the air. Dust blew behind me as I flew. My teeth were clenched. I held my balled fist up ready to strike as I still charged. My fist came; ready to hit this wannabe in the face, but instead I hit Kotaishi's stomach. What? What was he doing? Why was he protecting this wannabe? Why wasn't he protecting ME? Why was everyone against me? Why did I care?
He didn't move. He just stood there staring at my glaring figure, his eyebrows furrowed.
I drew my fist from his stomach and stood up. I looked up at him and frowned; my eyes narrowed.
I threw a series of punches at him, which he seemed to block with ease. The thing was: he wasn't retaliating. I tried kicking, then combos. None of them hit their target. Why couldn't I land one?
Then, he struck back. His fist hit me dead on in the face. I flew back from the blow, stunned. I shook my head and got back to reality.
"Kinu, get some senzu beans from Korin's," I said, while still facing Kotaishi.
Kinu nodded, "Hai."
She turned in the direction of Korin's Tower and got ready to fly off, but she stopped.
"Kinu, Gogeta we're here!" It was Aunt Pan.
"Sorry we're late, Hun." It was mum.
I turned around. Mum, Dad, Aunt Pan, and Uncle Trunks were here.
"Mommy, Daddy!" Kinu ran over to her parents. They hugged her.
I just looked at Mum and Dad. I was never one of the affectionate types; I never desired to show anyone any of my feelings. I now wish I had shown, or even told, my mum and dad how much I loved and appreciated them.
"Now that my family is here, they will take you down," I said, turning to face Wannabe.
She just smirked. "You are too cocky for your own good, Small Saiya-jin." She spoke in a sort of double-voice. Half sounded like Lei, the other half sounded deeper. Her red eyes were piercing, like she could see into the depths of my being. She stretched her hand out, palm forward, facing Kinu's and my parents. Her hand emitted a small surge of energy, which caused some wind to blow, picking up the dust in this deserted place.
I shielded my face with my arms. Then the wind stopped. I dropped my hands to my sides.
"Acgh!"
I turned in the direction the scream came. To my horror, it was my parents; they gripped their stomachs and fell to the ground in pain.
"What did you do to them?!" I yelled as I turned to face Wannabe.
"I guess I should explain shouldn't I, Saiya-jin?" she responded.
I just growled.
"You see, before you were born, your father, aunt, uncle, and grandfathers participated in a Tenkaichi Budoukai. Princess Lei's father wished to explore this new planet they found called Earth, so he sent a man down, to travel to Earth. The man was possessed by a darkness, so he sprinkled a powdered poison on the drawing numbers."
"But we are immune to poisons," Kinu said.
"Not immune, Saiya-jin, just tolerant to weaker poisons. This poison is absorbed through the skin and lays dormant in the stomach until a magic resuscitates it. It then attacks the heart and brings it into darkness. There is no cure." With that she smiled, an evil smile.
I couldn't believe it I was watching my family die in front of me. That means my grandfathers had it too. But what about my okasan (mother)? How did she get it? She never participated in the Tenkaichi Boudokai.
As if reading my mind, she spoke, "Kotaishi was kind enough to put some on your okasan's plate during that party you people went to."
As she spoke this my eyes widened. There was another reason to hate him, and it was better than the others.
I turned and ran to my parents. Maybe they were still alive. I knelt down to my okasan and otosan (father). I blinked back the tears that threatened to show my emotions, but now I wish I would've let them fall freely.
"Mum. . ." I uttered softly, my voice only giving way to a little shakiness.
"Gogeta," she whispered softly; gripping my fist with her hand, it seemed she only had the strength to barely hold herself up. "Remember, Musume?, w- we . . . we . . . love . . . you. . ." With that said, her grip was released, and she fell to the ground, her blue eyes open but soulless, her mouth just slightly parted, and skin pale.
"Dad . . ." I looked over at him, half expecting him dead and half expecting him to comfort me like he had always done when I was a child.
"Gogeta," he sighed.
"Daddy, don't leave me . . ." I whispered shakily as I scooted over to where his limp body lay.
"You are strong, my musume san. You won't always have us to fight your battles for you. You know, your grandfather Vageta, had always been mad at your okasan and I because we never had a son, but no boys could ever replace my musumes." His eyes glistened a little before his last breath was taken.
I leaned over. I couldn't take the overwhelming rage and sorrow burning deep inside of me. I yelled out, head thrust backwards, arms flexing. A golden aura encircled me. It wasn't the first time I had reached Super Saiya-jin, but it was the first time I had lost control.
My eyes closed, I spoke to Kinu, "Kinu, get some senzu beans from Korin's," I repeated.
I opened my eyes and looked at her. Her eyes were all watery, and tears streamed down her face. She just nodded, stood up, and flew off in the direction of the tower.
I stood up and faced Kotaishi.
I smirked. Now the real battle begins.
