Chapter 2

Searching

Two hours had passed since Goku had told Vegeta, Bulma, and the Brief what had happened. He had begged them to forgive him for leaving and not staying to protect Trunks. Bulma of course forgave Goku instantly telling him it wasn't his fault and sat next to him rubbing her friends back. Vegeta on the other hand was glaring at Goku and didn't say a word or at least tell the younger saiyan it wasn't his fault. He just glared at the younger saiyan. He glared at him as if looking at a new-born rat; its bones showing through its transparent skin. Vegeta frowned and shook the image out of his mind. 'No. I can't think like that. It wasn't Kakarrot's fault. It's no one's fault. Things happen. The only person who should be hated is the person who did this. Not Kakarrot.'

Vegeta then looked back at Goku; who was still sobbing silently, covering his face with his hands, as Bulma comforted him telling him still it wasn't his fault for leaving.

"But it is my fault! I should have stayed! Instead of taking a walk! I hate myself! Its my fault their dead. I let them all down." Vegeta gritted his teeth watching as Goku whined. He clutched his hands into tight fist and stormed over to him. "Listen Kakarrot! Its no ones fault! The only one whose fault this is, is the person who killed them! Its their fault because we're going to go out there right now and find them!" Goku looked up at Vegeta and whipped the tears from his face using his blue wristband. "But.What are we going to do when we find them Vegeta?" Vegeta then gave Goku his old smirk. "Oh. Kakarrot. You should know me by now." Goku blinked a few times and his eyes went wide. "NO! I'm not going to kill them, Vegeta! It's not right!" Vegeta narrowed his eyes, his smirk going to a slight, angry frown. "And neither was it right for them to kill innocent children. I know you don't fight for revenge. But what would your wife think if you didn't do anything about this?" asked the King of All Saiyans. Goku lowered his head, his bangs falling down over his eyes. Bulma then looked at Goku and rubbed his back. "Goku.Where is Chi-chi?" He shook his head, not responding at first. She asked him again, this time placing a hand on his shoulder. "Goku?" He finally looked over to her though his pitch-black hair. "I think she went to Ming Hotel. She didn't even look at me. She sounded as if she didn't even want to talk to me." he looked back to the ground his breathing pattern changed, taking a deep breath through his nose. Vegeta crosses his arms. "Well were not getting anywhere just sitting here, sobbing about how its Your fault Kakarrot. Now get up and lets go." Bulma shot a dark look at him. "Vegeta! Don't say that!"

He scowled and looked at Goku as he stood. "Its okay Bulma. I'm okay now. Thanks." Said the Saiyan Warrior then he turned to Vegeta. Vegeta smirked and uncrossed his arms. "That's it now lets go." He turned and started towards the door, turning the knob and opened it. Goku followed shortly behind him silently. Bulma looked at them both, as she stood. "Are you sure your okay, Goku?" He took a quick glance back, and gave her a small smile, the one he had always given before doing something self-less, and answered and just as quick. 'yes' and went out the door. Vegeta turned and folded his arms back over his chest watching as Goku closed the door. "Well Kakarrot. Where are we going to search first?" he asked the younger saiyan. Goku blinked a few times and sighed. "Well.we could ask questions first."

Vegeta had arched an eyebrow at this point watching Goku curiously. "Ask who?"

Goku placed a fist on his waist. "The people of the city, duh Vegeta. Maybe someone actually knows where we can find this guy with a blue hockey mask." Vegeta scowled. "Blue Hockey mask? Do they carry around an axe?"

Goku nodded quickly. "Yeah that's what officer Brea said."

".There's not just one person with a blue hockey mask and carrying an axe around" Goku blinked dumbfounded. "What do you mean not just one?" "It's a gang."

Goku gawked. "You mean there's more than one person?"

Vegeta scoffed, rolling his eyes. "You baka. I just said that! C'mon!" then he flew off into the sky in insane speed. Goku blinked a few times rubbing the back off his head before following shortly behind Vegeta. Goku had stopped over West City looking down, at the ground below, watching the human race walk around doing whatever they did. Vegeta suddenly stopped; he could hear the light sound of guns firing, and metal scrapping cement. He eyes snapped down to the city below and saw two police officers behind a car, and a man with a blue mask, holding a axe ducking behind a car. Goku saw as well and swooped down hovering over the blue masked man. The Cops stopped firing and gawked at Goku. "What the hell!?" yelled a police officer.

Vegeta scoffed and landed on top of a building watching in amusement. The blue masked man suddenly jerked his head up and saw Goku. "Who the-!?" he didn't finish his sentence, before Goku and grabbed the guy by his shirt and pulled him off the ground with a powerful arm. The guy had dropped the axe, and struggled. "What the hell!? Hey! Let me go! What the hell are you doing!?" Goku growled at the man. "You. Why did you break into my house and kill my kids!?" The guy blinked and looked at Goku, he didn't respond at first but Goku could tell he was frowning. "The hell, are you talking about!!! I didn't kill yer damn kids! Fuckin' bitch!" Suddenly an axe went spinning just past Goku's head missing it by an inch and hitting the light pole just behind him. Goku blinked and looked up from the guy he was holding. Two more men were up ahead dressed the same way the man in his hands, both in the police officers spots. 'What the? Whats this? A trap?' Vegeta watched from the building above. Not bothering to help. A frown soon spread across Goku's face. The man he was holding soon pressed a foot against his stomach and pushed away causing Goku to lose grip on him, apparently not paying attention. The man had run over to the other two. They all looked at Goku and chuckled slightly. "What are you laughing at!?" yelled Goku, he clutched a hand into a tight fist, his blood boiled, his temper was soon rising, wanting to be let out and smash the pitiful creatures infront of him. But he couldn't do that. It wasn't right. He was Goku! I was the good guy! But that was just it. No one even knew he was the good guy. Everyone always thought it was Hercule who saved the people of Earth. And did he ever get any credit, nope not a damn thing. He growled, a drop of sweat rolled freely down the side of his face, and dropped to the ground beneath his feet. The two dark brown eyes looked up at the three masked men. Both eyes filled with hatred and vengeance. He didn't know if one of them had killed his children and Trunks, but surely.whoever did do it, by killing these fools, it would eventually lead him to them, or they would come to him. But he would be ready.
