cute scenes with Trunks, Pan, and Bra!
^_^Animeluvers^_^
^_^
Charisma
woke up with one hell of a headache. Her vision was blurred and when she tried
to focus, it just became worse. Carefully, Charisma sat up on her elbows and
looked around for Starla. The young girl knew her best friend was here
somewhere.
"So, you're finally awake, young warrior. I was beginning to think that I
really did kill you."
Charisma narrowed her gaze into the black darkness. This guy was had pushed her
last button. In a flash of golden light, Charisma powered up to Super Saiya-jin
made, which gave some light to the dark room.
"Haha, oh, dear Charisma, your efforts are futile."
"Coward! Afraid to fight me?" Charisma yelled. Like her mother, this
young girl wasn't afraid to fight anyone.
Mechanical laughter echoed through the evil infested place. "You still
have a lot to learn, but for now, how about you and Starla find me."
Charisma frowned and grunted. She wasn't in the mood to play some messed up
version of 'hide and go seek' with this guy. That really was childish. Charisma
sighed. This guy has some major problems! "FINE!" She decided
that she would do along with his little charade. One problem though, she couldn't
find Starla.
"Come on, little girl, let's start." a small dot appeared in front of
Charisma and she smirked.
"Whatever!" Charisma followed the light. All she could think about
was her parents. She missed her mother and father. "This is so ridiculous!"
Charisma thought for a minute. Being half saiya-jin could help her. She could
just think of this as a hunt. This might turn out to be fun after all.
Charisma kept walking following the white light. She stopped when her ears
picked up a sound. She turned to her right to see a blue haired girl on the
ground.
"Star! Are you alright?" Charisma ran over to her cousin's side and
started shaking her. Soon after, Starla moaned and groaned in pain and fatigue.
"Uh...Chrissy? Is that you?"
Charisma smiled. "Yeah, it's me. Are you okay?"
"My head hurts, but I'll live." Starla got up, with Charisma's help.
She looked around and examined her surroundings. "Where in the hell are
we?"
^_^
It had
been 12 hours since the others had brought Charisma and Starla home. For some
reason, they wouldn't wake up. Bra sat on the edge of her daughter's bed,
holding her hand. This was tearing her apart. Charisma was the light of her
life. Bra couldn't stand seeing her daughter like this. The Saiya-jin Princess
was so strong, however, right now, Bra felt so weak. She couldn't help her
daughter.
The blue haired demi saiya-jin stroked her daughter's black and blue hair. How
could this happen to her? Why now? Goten had just come back into her life. She
finally had her family. Why do I have to pay for happiness? What do I have
to do? What have I done to deserve this? Bra thought.
Tears poured out of her red, puffy eyes and down her cheek. Quickly she wiped
them away. Bra promised herself that she wouldn't cry anymore. It was a sign of
weakness. Or, so she thought ...
~Flashback~
A 13 year old Bra sat outside in Capsule Corp.'s garden. Every time she saw
Goten and Pareasu together, if ripped her heart in a million and one pieces. It
hurt to even think about it. Bra couldn't stop the tears as the rolled down her
cheek.
"Bra? What's wrong?"
Bra quickly stood and wiped the tears off her face. She made herself
presentable. "Nothing, daddy. Nothing's wrong."
Vegeta came closer to his daughter and sat down on the bench. "Something must
be. You were crying."
Bra faked a smile. "What are you talking about, dad? I wasn't doing such a
weak thing."
"Hmph. Bra, sit down. I need to talk to you." Vegeta looked at the
seat next to him. Bra hesitated at first, then she obliged.
"Yes, daddy."
"Showing your emotions isn't a sign of weakness. It shows that you care.
Even anger is an emotion. It all revolves around people. Believe me, Bra, I
know you care, and I know that you were crying." Vegeta put his arm around
his daughter.
Bra sighed. "Have you ever cared for someone so much that it even hurts to
think about that person?" Bra looked at her father.
Vegeta straightened up. "Honestly, I felt that way every time I saw your
mother with Yamacha. Before the androids appeared, Bulma showed me so much
kindness. After I went to space to continue my Super Saiya-jin training. I
realized that I loved her just as much as she loved me." Vegeta sighed.
"Now when I look back, I do regret being so crude to her. However, I don't
regret loving her."
Bra looked at her father. She never knew this about him. "Awww! Daddy,
that's so romantic. I never knew you felt that way about mom!"
Vegeta looked Bra. "Do not tell anyone about this."
Bra chuckled. "I promise." She got up and gave Vegeta a hug. "I
love you, daddy."
The Saiya-jin Prince wrapped his arms tighter around his little girl. "I
love you too, Princess."
~ End Flashback ~
Bra smiled at the memory of her father. He had always seemed to cheer her
up. As odd as it may sound, Vegeta would crack jokes when she felt down. He had
told her 'I hate to see you upset, Angel.' Bra missed her father ...a lot.
Once again, Bra started to cry. She brought her daughter in her lap and started
to rock Charisma's body. Bra did the one thing that Charisma enjoyed her doing.
She cleared her throat and started to sing. She didn't expect what would happen
next.
Bra felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her and Charisma as she began to
sing. Bra knew who it was. She sung every word of the song through her endless
tears of sorrow.
"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are
gray. You'll never know dear, how much I love you, so don't take my sunshine
away." Bra never stopped when Goten's grip became tighter.
"Bra."
"Oh Goten!" The Saiya-jin Princess buried her head into Goten's
cotton shirt. Her tears soaking the material. "What are we going to
do?"
"I don't know love." Goten kissed the top of Bra's head and stroked
her soft, light blue hair. "I don't know."
^_^
"Kami! Where the hell is that asswipe?" Starla
was becoming quite impatient. "This is so ...I dunno ...stupid, boring,
dumb..."
"Star, I get the picture." Charisma laughed.
The two girls had been walking for what seemed forever. That ball of light had
disappeared some time ago, and all they could do was follow their instincts.
Which wasn't so bad, considering they were Saiya-jin's. So far, they hadn't run
into any trouble. That is ...
Starla stopped. Something wasn't right. The wind had changed direction. She
remembered her Grandpa Goku telling her something about wind change. She could
smell something all around them. She didn't like what was coming. Charisma's
head jerked behind her when she heard strange noise. Sounded somewhat like a
growl. It didn't sound friendly. Charisma got back to back with Starla.
"Pst, Chrissy, did you hear that?" Starla asked in a whisper.
Charisma nodded. "It doesn't sound happy to see us." Her blue eyes
shot to her side. They turned gold once the creature had moved. This was
pissing her off. (AN: In the character guide, we mentioned that her eyes turned
gold when she was angry.)
The girls jumped back from one another when an energy beam was shot between
them. Starla saw some kind of creature appear Charisma. The dark blue haired
girl flew towards her friend.
"Chrissy! Behind you!"
"Huh?" Charisma turned around only to be knocked down to the ground
at lighting speed. Her body hit the ground with a hard thud. Charisma struggled
to get up, but she never got far.
As fast as ever, the creature appeared in front of Charisma and punched her in
the stomach. The young girl dropped to her knees and started to cough up not
only saliva but also blood.
^_^
Goten was washing dishes when he heard Bra scream. He
dropped the plate, and started to run up the stairs. He lost his footing and
tripped on the bottom step. He heard Bra scream again.
"GOTEN! Something's wrong with Charisma!"
The black haired man got up and bolted up the stairs to Charisma's room. He
looked at his daughter and gasped. Charisma was coughing up, what seemed like
blood. Goten rushed over to his daughter and Bra.
"God damn! What happened?" Goten looked at his girlfriend.
"I don't know. Go and call the hospital, and then call Pan. Charisma is
not staying here." Bra said.
Goten got up and ran downstairs, and grabbed the phone. He was praying to Dende
that his daughter would be okay.
^_^
"Ka-me-ha-me-HA!" a white and blue beam came out of Charisma's hand. This creature was way too fast. It moved out of
the way
of the wave.
Starla was on the ground fighting some kind of wolf like thing. She wasn't in a
very happy mood. "Eat this!" Starla threw a punch at the creature and
knocked it a few feet back. She took off in a run, and just as the thing got
up, Starla kicked it in the head, breaking its neck.
"This guy is really getting on my last nerve!" Starla said. She
looked behind her to find some more of those wolves coming at her. She quickly
guarded herself, but didn't see the one behind her.
Charisma heard Starla's scream. She looked down and saw her best friend.
"Star! Hold on!" Charisma went Super Saiya-jin, kicked the enemy she
was fighting away, and flew towards Starla.''
The ten-year-old girl stood and powered up. "That is it!" Starla went
Super Saiya-jin as well and flew above the creatures. She raised her arms over
her head. "Ma-sen-ko-HA!"
The next thing the girls saw was a giant explosion. Hnm ...that's strange. I
didn't even let the attack go. What the hell?! Starla thought.
^_^
When Pan
got there; the car was ready to go to the hospital. A worried Bra watched as
Goten carefully put Charisma in the car. Pan ran over to Bra and took her in
her arms.
"It's gonna be okay, Bra. Don't worry." Pan said, trying to reassure
her best friend.
"How can I NOT worry, Pan? My daughter is coughing up blood!" Bra
yelled. She saw the look in Pan's eyes. She was hurt. "I'm sorry, Pan. I'm
just ...I can't stand this. My nerves are shot!"
Goten turned towards the two women. "Let's go, girls. She's ready."
Goten was waiting by the car.
"Fuck taking a car! We can fly, you know?!" Bra said, taking a hold
of her daughter. When she had a good grip on her, she took off flying in the
direction towards the hospital.
"Dammit! Doesn't she know how dangerous that is?!" Goten said, frustrated.
He took off after her, cussing under his breath.
Pan just sighed and took off after the two. Of course, Goten was right. Bra
shouldn't fly when she is upset like that. She could get hurt, and the altitude
could be dangerous for Charisma's health.
When they got to the hospital, Bra had already registered Charisma. She was
talking to the doctor when Goten and Pan got there.
"Hello, I'm her father. Charisma's, of course." Goten said. "How
is she?"
"I'm Adam Richardson. Well, she is in a comatose state right now, sir. We
can't be sure why she was coughing up blood. I suggest that she stay here so
that we can run some tests on her and be sure that everything is running
smoothly inside." the doctor said.
A nurse walked over to the doctor and said something to him. He nodded and
walked away. "He had an emergency," she said.
Bra sat down in a chair and looked at her daughter. She looked so small, lying
there, almost as if she was shrinking in the bed.
~Flashback~
Bra was sitting in the living room, watching television when her mother
came in. Bra shot her a smile and patted the seat next to her. Bulma returned
the smile and sat down.
"Hi Mom. Ya know, I never thought pregnancy would be so hard on a
woman," Bra said, rubbing her back. She was seven months pregnant now, and
her back was killing her!
"Well, sweetheart, it is hard. But, it's all worth it when you hold your
little girl in your arms for the first time. When I saw you for the first time,
I burst into tears. You were so beautiful, and you still are." Bulma
brushed a loose strand of hair out of her daughter's face.
"Mom, you know just how to make me feel better. I love you, and I love
this baby. I can never picture myself in a position where I would stop loving
either of you. You know what? I feel so much Charisma from this baby. I think
that's what I'll name her." Bra smiled again.
"That's a beautiful name, Bra. But, I have to tell you something,"
Bulma said. "It's very important."
"Go on Mom. You can tell me anything." Bra looked at her beautiful
mother. She was so vibrant. And she always had the best advice. Of course, only
a mother could understand her daughter.
"Well, I know that this little girl is going to be fragile. Take good care
of Charisma, okay? You never know how much your daughter means to you until you
have something happen to her, like when you got pregnant. I never thought of
you as a mother, but like I said, you never meant so much as when something
happened to you."
~End Flashback~
Bra was crying now, and she couldn't stop. All of a sudden, Bra felt strong
arms wrap around her. Goten was there, like he had been for so long. He was
always there for her in spirit, even if he couldn't be there physically.
"Shh ...Bra, she is going to be fine. I promise. I won't let anything happen
to our daughter," Goten said.
Pan excused herself to go to the bathroom. When she got out into the hall, she
bumped into Trunks. "What are you doing here? Who's taking care of Starla,
dammit?!" Pan yelled.
"Listen," Trunks said. "Something happened to Starla. Her nose
was ...well, it started to bleed. I didn't know what to do, so I brought her
here."
^_^
"Dammit," Starla said.
"What is it, Star?" Charisma asked.
"My nose is bleeding now. Well, crap." Starla took out the
handkerchief her father had given her. It used to be her grandmother's.
"Well, well, well. So, you two must be the competitors my father told me
about." A tall, black-haired, blue-eyed, muscular man appeared through the
darkness. "My name is..." Before the man could say anything else,
there was another explosion.
Starla and Charisma powered up, preparing for another battle. They heard the
familiar voice of the creature that had attacked them earlier.
"Ah, I see you've met my son. Girls, you don't have to be so prepared to
fight. Now is not the time." The man didn't resemble the creature from
earlier. He was actually quite handsome, with the same features as his son.
Starla and Charisma exchanged glances. "Who in the hell are you and what
do you want with us?!" Starla yelled at him.
The man did not reply, but instead, raised his hand and said a few words.
"Light, shine forth and reveal 'Casa'." There was a bright flash of
light and suddenly, a home-like setting appeared around everyone.
"What just happened?" Did you cast a spell or something?"
Charisma asked as she powered down. Starla powered down as well.
"Yes, much like the one I cast on you when I hit you both before."
The man replied. He turned to the other man and said, "Guapo, my son, show
these girls where they will be staying when they are not training."
Guapo nodded his head and turned to Starla ans Charisma. "Follow me."
He began to walk away and the two girls followed. They reached a door and Guapo
opened it. "This will be your room when you are not training." he said
to Charisma. "You will receive your food here and you are not to leave
under and circumstances." He closed the door and pointed across the hall.
"That is your room. The same rules apply."
Guapo turned around and headed back toward his father. Charisma was thinking
about something, and she couldn't help herself. She had to ask him.
"Um ...Guapo ...could you be a doll and show us the rest of 'casa', you
know? Like, where the bathroom is?"
^_^
Pan had followed Trunks to Starla's room. Although she
was older, Pan thought Starla looked even smaller than Charisma had. Pan rushed
over to Starla's bedside and brushed her daughter's hair out of her face.
"Oh, my little girl. I hope you're okay!" Pan began to weep and
Trunks walked over to her and hugged her.
"It's okay, Pan. She's going to be fine. I hope you know that."
Meanwhile, Bra had told Goten that she wanted to be alone, so he had left for a
while. When Goten returned, Bra turned to him with tear-filled eyes.
"Goten, we are getting these girls out of here. We need to put them
somewhere where we know that they'll be taken good care of."
"What? Are you sure that's such a good idea? I mean, they need a
doctor," Goten said.
"I know. That's why we're taking them and Dr. Richardson to Capsule Corps.
It's practically a second home and it's got a medical room, too," Bra
said.
^_^
Back in
the Dark side, the other dimension, Starla and Charisma had finished their
tour. Dende! This guy is so cute!- Charisma thought. -And he's nice, too. I
wonder if he's as evil as his father ...
When they met back up with Guapo's father, the girls were very quiet as
they listened to him talk. "Let me introduce myself before we begin. I am
Nagago. Now, I already know you, so let's go."
"Go where? You had better mean home!" Starla said.
Nagago led the girls out of the house and again raised his hand to cast another
spell. "Reveal to all those who see Seishinno!" With another flash of
light, another room appeared. There was incense lit everywhere.
"What the hell is this?!" Charisma asked.
"Tight!" Starla said.
"This is stage one of your training. It is mental training. The one who
passes all five stages first goes home. In order to pass this stage, you must
prove to me that you are able to win mental battles with yourself. This is for
you to meditate and concentrate your thoughts. When you think you are ready,
find me and I will test you." Nagago left the girls alone in another
explosion.
^_^
Doctor Richardson came in right after Bra's suggestion.
"Ma'am, I think that is an excellent idea. Perhaps when they are there,
they will feel more at home and they will awaken."
"So, you'll be willing to come stay there around the clock?" Bra
asked as she took a seat.
The doctor pondered this for a moment and then responded. "It will not be
a problem. I'll begin the paperwork right now." He walked out of the room,
leaving Bra and Goten alone with Charisma.
"Oh, Charisma, you're getting out of this hospital, sweetheart." Bra
turned to Goten. "Goten, do you think she can hear me?"
"I'm sure she can, but if she can't, she's missing out," Goten said
as he walked over and gave Bra a reassuring kiss.
"My poor baby. Charisma, where are you?"
"Ma'am? The paperwork's all ready. You can take her to..." Doctor
Richardson paused.
"Capsule Corps. I'll take her. Goten will show you how to get there as
soon as you're ready. I have to go tell Pan the news!" Bra stood and
walked out of the room and down the hall to Starla's room.
"Bra!" Pan said when she saw her.
"I have good news. We're taking the girls to Capsule Corps. Dr. Richardson
is going with us. He'll be staying around the clock. Isn't that
wonderful?!" Bra exclaimed.
"Thank goodness! I hate this hospital. I'll get Starla down there
immediately." Pan smiled and picked up her daughter, carrying her out of
the room. Bra went and got Charisma and followed her. When they got outside,
they flew into the air and in the direction of Capsule Corps.
"Well, doc, let's go and get some clothes and stuff. Can we take your
car?" Goten asked.
"No problem. It's right outside," Dr. Richardson said, leading Goten
out of the hospital and to his car in the parking lot.
^_^
Charisma took a seat on the other side of the meditating
room. She was scared. What did this Nagago guy want with her and Starla? This
was too hard for her to do. She just wanted to go home and stay with her mom.
Starla eyed her friend across the room. I wonder what's on her mind? Deciding
to help her friend, Starla stopped what she was doing and walked over to
Charisma.
"Hey grill! What's wrong with you?" Starla put a hand on Chrissy's
shoulder and knelt down beside her.
Above them, Guapo watched the two Saiya-jins with an observant eye. His father
was right. Charisma and Starla had a close bond with one another. The quarter
sorcerer continued his watch over them. One of the two was destined to be his
savior.
Charisma looked at Starla with sad eyes. "I miss my Mom and Dad. I want to
go home and..."
"Waitaminute! You have a dad? When did this happen?" Starla had
rudely interrupted Charisma, something she did a lot.
"Oi! Tonight. Before you ask who it is, Goten is my Dad." Charisma
saw Starla's eyes widen. She mentally slapped herself.
"Uncle Goten is your Dad?! Man, that's some damn shit right there. Who
would've thought?" Starla sighed. "Uncle Goten. You know, Mom told me
that he was married to this whore. Her name was ...Pareasu, I think."
Charisma looked at her friend. She really didn't need that information at this
point in time. Mental note, get more detail about this Pareasu person from
Mom and Dad. Charisma thought.
^_^
"Bra, are you hungry?" Pan asked. She eyed her
best friend. She saw Bra shake her head. Her face started to get red.
"Oooooohh, you have to eat!" Again, Pan saw Bra shake her head.
"I'm not really in the mood to eat anything right now. Maybe later."
Bra sat down at the table.
"What will you do later?" Goten walked into the kitchen, followed by
Doctor Richardson, Trunks, and another young man, who was later introduced to
the others as Doctor Richardson's son, Lawson Richardson.
"Ojisan!" Pan turned to look at Goten. "Bra won't eat. She
refuses."
Goten heard Bra sigh and pushed the chair back. He turned around just as she
was leaving. "Bra?" Goten walked over to her and placed his hand on
her shoulder, spinning her around. "What's wrong?"
Bra looked at Goten with an angry face. Her eyes turned to a silver color.
Goten gasped. Bra pushed Goten back into the table. She glared at everyone and
bowed.
"Sumimasen." Bra walked back to the door and stopped. "Oh, and
Goten." Bra turned around to look at Goten. She shot him one of those cold
glares that Vegeta would give Goku. "I suggest that you don't touch me
like that ever again."
Goten watched Bra turn and leave to go upstairs. His heart started to hurt. She
hadn't acted like this in the last two days.
^_^
Starla quickly dodged the attack that was thrown at her.
The young girl took the upper hand and started to attack Charisma. Starla
kicked Charisma in the ribs, which made her fall to the ground. Starla kneed
her friend in the gut and kicked her in the head. Charisma flew backwards. She
stopped.
"So, you want to play dirty, Starla?" Charisma flew at Starla with
incredible speed Nagago wouldn't let them go super Saiya-jin, so they both had
a disadvantage.
When Charisma was exactly one foot in front of Starla, she produced an after
image and flew behind her. Starla got mad.
"Charisma! That's not fair!" Starla screamed.
Charisma appeared behind Starla and spun her around. "Yes it is!"
Charisma reared her fist forward and hit Starla in the head. She then delivered
a rapid attack.
The now twelve-year-old Charisma kicked a thirteen-year-old Starla in the
shoulder blade, hit her in the stomach, and put her in a chokehold. Charisma
brought her knee into Starla's lower back. Both of them were bleeding
profusely.
Charisma spat the warm blood out of her mouth and smirked. She had Starla in
the exact position that she wanted her in. "Do you give up?"
Starla gritted her teeth. It hurt so badly! She laughed. "FUCK NO! Get off
of me, you stupid cow!" Starla slung herself forward and Charisma was on
her back. Starla then jumped a couple of feet in the air and turned around so
that Charisma's back was facing the ground.
"What the hell are you doing? You little ...AHH!" Charisma hit the
ground hard with Starla on top of her. She heard Starla scream when her knee
jarred into the blue haired's back harder.
"Holy shit!" Starla yelled. She managed to get out of Charisma's
grasp and jumped off of her. She fell on the ground. Both of the girls were
very tired.
They had been training for seven months straight in the third stage, 'Duele'.
They passed the second stage, 'Kuuki', with ease. That was air battle. This was
hand-to-hand combat. Being in Darkside, time passed faster than that on Earth.
Nagago had told them that one day on Earth was equal to ten months in this
realm. That is how they had aged.
"Oh, dude, I can't move," Starla said. "Every muscle in my body
is aching!"
Charisma managed to get one word out. She was in too much pain to talk.
"MEDIC!"
Starla looked at Charisma and laughed, but it didn't last long. "Damn
...it even hurts to ...laugh. Fisherman's Horizon, where's Guapo when you need
him?"
An explosion was heard and the two Saiya-jins couldn't move to see whether it
was Guapo or Nagago. After they heard him speak, they knew.
"Charisma, Starla, NAOSU!" Guapo used his healing magic on the two
girls.
Once healed, Charisma jumped up and gave Guapo a big, Saiya-jin hug. "Oh
thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!"
Guapo wrapped his arms around Charisma. "No problem." Both of them
stayed like that. They had forgotten about Starla.
"Uh ...hello? Are you there? Guys? Charisma? Guapo? HEY, GUYS?!"
Guapo realized what he was doing and let go of Charisma. He stepped away with a
blush forming.
"WHAT?" Charisma yelled at Starla.
"Nothing..." Starla walked over to her friend and hugged her.
"Excuse me, Charisma?" Guapo said. "My father would like to see
you. Starla, he said for you to go back to 'casa' and rest. He will talk to you
later."
"Alright!" Starla hugged Charisma again and took off in the direction
of the place that she had called home for the past three years.
Charisma looked at Guapo and smiled. "Are you ready to go?"
Guapo nodded and snapped his fingers. They appeared in a simulation similar to
the 'Duele' dimension. "Father had some business to attend to, but he will
be back shortly." Guapo turned to leave, but Charisma stopped him.
"Guapo, why have you been helping me?" Charisma jumped in front of
the young man.
Guapo placed a hand on the young girl's shoulder. "I will tell you later.
Right now, you wouldn't understand."
Charisma's face became downcast when Guapo walked past her and to the door. She
heard him clear his throat. Charisma turned around to meet his intense dark
blue gaze.
"A helpful hint: You must unite your mind and body to defeat my father in
this stage." With that, Guapo left.
Charisma smiled to herself. Guapo was always giving her helpful hints. She sat
down and started to meditate. Guapo had shown her how to unite her mind and
body so that they would think in sync with each other. "It helps to
meditate to make your physical, mental, and energy attacks ten times as
strong." Guapo had said.
As Charisma sat there in a meditating state, one question hung in the back of
her mind. The same question that she hadn't been able to answer for months. Why
had she fallen in love with Guapo?
^_^
Goten sat in the living room with Trunks, who was playing
his Playstation Game Console. (AN: I don't own that!) "DAMN! How many of
these monsters do I have to fight?!" Trunks started to whine. "I want
Bahamut!" (AN: In Final Fantasy 8, Bahamut is a GF. I don't own that
either!)
"Oh, quit your bitching, you big baby! You'll get him. See, he's talking
to you." Goten had to get Trunks' attention back on the game, or he would
surely lose.
Trunks read the question out loud. "So, do you wish to challenge me?
...Why, hell yeah I do!" Trunks hit his answer and waited for the enemy.
Goten listened as the battle music raged on. Once he heard Trunks, he couldn't
help but laugh. The older, purple haired boy sounded like a girl, literally.
"EEK! RED DRAGON! AHH! RED DRAGON! TASUKE!" Trunks watched as the
creature did an attack called 'breath'. He watched in onslaught as all of his
party members died. "NOOOOOO! That's not fair! Screw you Red Dragon! And
screw you, Bahamut!"
Suddenly, Pan came in the room and threw the Playstation in the closet, locking
the door. She turned to her husband and uncle. Both had a shocked face.
"What the hell was that for?!" Trunks whined again.
"I'm tired of hearing you scream and complain about Bahamut, and Ojison
over there was laughing like a maniac!"
"But ...but ...Pan!" Trunks started to cry, while Goten couldn't help
but laugh.
Bra came down the stairs. "What the hell is going on?!" She walked in
to the living room to see Trunks at Pan's feet, crying, and Goten on the floor,
laughing like a hyena. "Goten, Oniichan, are you two alright?"
Trunks looked at his little sister. He smiled and crawled over to Bra. He
grabbed a hold of her leg. "Imotochan, will you go and get my Playstation
out of the closet?"
Bra looked at her brother, and then at Pan. "Why is his Playstation in the
closet?"
Pan turned her head up. "I put it in there because I was tired of hearing
Trunks whine about some stupid GF and I was tired of Ojison's maniacal
laughter!"
The images that appeared in Bra's mind were priceless, and they brought a smile
to her face. Suddenly, that smile turned into laughter. Goten stopped laughing
and got up off of the floor. He looked at the love of his life. This was the
first time that he had seen her smile since Charisma had been in a coma. As
happy as ever, Goten ran over to Bra and wrapped his arms around her. He
brought his lips to hers and swept her off of her feet and to their room.
Trunks was still on the floor. He just didn't see that. Dende! That was nasty!
Then, he remembered what had happened earlier and jumped up, going to the foot
of the stairs. He screamed, "WHAT ABOUT MY PLAYSTATION?! I WANT
BAHAMUT!"
^_^
Charisma fell to the ground once again as Nagago hit her
in the stomach. "FUCK! That kinda hurt, ya know?!" Charisma jumped up
and returned to her battle stance. What was it that Guapo had said? Go for
the legs.
Charisma smiled as she remembered Nagago's weakness, his knees. Charisma
ran toward Nagago and tackled him at the knees. Nagago screamed in pain when he
hit the pointy rock that was conveniently right behind him.
"AHH! You little bitch!" Nagago yelled. "Fine! I am ending
this!" He screamed in pain when he felt Charisma kick his knee.
"Good, so I won!" Charisma started to do a little victory dance.
"Go to 'casa' and tell Starla that she is to commence stage three again
tomorrow until a month has passed. You will move to stage four, 'Tiempo'.
Inform my son of this. He is to be your trainer for the next month. Now,
go!" Nagago walked off in the opposite direction of 'casa' to let his pain
go away while meditating.
Charisma started to sing to herself in the happiness. "You are my
sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You'll never
know ear, how much I love you, so don't take my sunshine away." She
stopped singing when she saw Guapo in his separate house from 'casa'. Charisma
broke into a sprint and ran in Guapo's house. She seemed to have startled him,
because he jumped when he saw her.
"Charisma! What are you doing here?! Shouldn't you be fighting my father?
Or did he already beat you? Are you hurt badly?" Guapo looked her up and
down. "You don't seem to be hurt. Why are you here?" Guapo studied
Charisma's face.
"I won, Guapo! I won! Can you believe it?!" Charisma threw her arms
around Guapo and jumped up and down.
"You won? Wow. Congratulations! I'm so happy for you, Charisma! But still,
why are you here?" Guapo asked.
"Well, you're my teacher for stage four! Isn't that great?!" Charisma
said.
"Yeah!" Guapo picked Charisma up and suddenly kissed her. He dropped
her after he did this. "Oh, man! I'm sorry! Maybe you should go now. Really,
I just got caught up in the moment. I'm sorry."
Charisma stood there. She didn't know what to do. Run! Run! Move out!
Dammit! Why can't I move? Shit!
Why did you kiss her, you dumb ass?! She doesn't have feelings for you, so why
should you love her?! Guapo thought to himself.
When Charisma regained her blood flow, she took off in the direction of 'casa'
in a full sprint. She ran into the house and bumped right into Starla.
"Hey! Chrissy, what's wrong?! Why are you running around like a
maniac?!" Starla yelled.
"I beat Nagago in the battle! I get to go to stage four. Oh, but Star, you
have to stay in stage three for another month. Sorry Star." Charisma
skipped away to her room, not waiting for Starla's response.
^_^
Bra and Goten came back downstairs to meet a distressed
Trunks. They exchanged knowing glances. Bra and Goten tried to sneak past him,
but Trunks heard them.
"I still haven't got past the damn Red Dragons!" Trunks whined.
"Help me! YEAS! Zantesuken! Boo-yah, fuckin' Red Dragon! What now,
bitch?!" Trunks turned to Goten and Bra. "I won! I won! El yeas! OH
NO! Another one! NOO! Breath! DAMN YOU RED DRAGONS!"
"Please tie him up so we can ship him to a mental asylum, Goten," Bra
said, laughing at her big brother.
"I can hear you!" Trunks whined.
"Yes, I know. I meant for it to be that way," Bra shot back. Bra took
a seat on the couch and Goten sat beside her.
Goten kissed Bra's cheek and took hold of her hand. "I love you,
Bra."
"I love you, too, Goten," Bra replied. Oh, Dende, please not
memories. Anything but that!
~Flashback~
Bra and Charisma came in to the Christmas party at Capsule Corps. Bra took
Charisma over to where Starla was seated and left her there. She had to find
Goten. Bra had decided to tell Goten about Charisma. It was time that he knew
that he had a daughter. Bra searched every possible place that Goten could be
at Capsule Corps. Exhausted, Bra walked outside into the garden. She took a
seat on one of the benches.
Dende! Where in the hell is Goten?! Bra thought. I really need to talk
to him, considering I am the mother of his daughter!
Bra's head shot up when she heard Goten's voice. "I love you,
Pareasu."
"I love you, too, Goten! And yes! I will marry you!" Pareasu's words
stung Bra's heart and she got up off of the bench. She had tears streaming down
her face.
~End Flashback~
"Bra? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Goten asked, worried.
"Do you remember the Christmas party when Pareasu accepted your proposal
in the garden at Capsule Corps?" Bra asked, turning to Goten.
"Yes, why?"
"I was in the garden. I was looking for you. I was going to tell you about
Charisma that night, but ..."
"You heard Pareasu and I and you couldn't bring yourself to do it, could
you? Well, Bra, that was the biggest mistake of my life. Don't worry. That's
all in the past. The divorce was finalized today," Goten said, taking Bra
in his arms.
"Watch where you're putting your hands on my sister! I'll kick your
ass!" Trunks said, pausing his Playstation game.
^_^
Charisma had been working on stage four for nine months
now. Guapo was a tough trainer, but he was a cute one! Charisma finally passed
stage four, 'Tiempo', when she realized that she could control her movements in
any type of weather. This was element training!
"Congratulations, Charisma. You have mastered stage four. You may now move
on to stage five, 'Fin', super Saiya-jin training. Good luck. You can rest now
at 'casa'." With a flash of light, Guapo disappeared.
"YES!" Charisma rejoiced, beginning to hum a familiar tune. She
paused. Every time she hummed or sang that tune, it made her think of her
mother.
Back at 'casa', Starla was badly injured. She had finally defeated Nagago and
passed stage three, but not without a lot of pain.
Charisma came bounding in and ran right past Starla, not even noticing that she
was injured. "That little bitch! She's so inconsiderate as a
teenager!" Starla said quietly to herself. She grimaced in pain, but
turned over and went to sleep. When she woke up, she wasn't in pain anymore. Guapo
must have healed me. Hmph. I still don't trust him! Starla thought. She got
up and went outside. Nobody was around. Where is everyone?
"Hey Starla! Guess what?!" Charisma said, startling Starla.
"I am almost done with stage five! All I have to do is prove that I can
control my power as a super Saiya-jin and I'm done! Hey, did you know that we'd
have been here for five years day after tomorrow?"
"Yeah, I know. I'm fifteen and you're fourteen. Freaky, huh?" Starla
replied.
^_^
"I'm worried about them! They have been in a coma
for six days!" Bra was pacing back and forth next to Charisma's bed.
Goten was trying to calm her down. "Listen, Dr. Richardson said that he
thinks they might wake up soon."
"Pshit! I don't know if I should believe that damn doctor anymore. He
seems ...I don't know!" Bra was frustrated lately.
"Look, Bra. It's almost midnight. Get some sleep. We'll check on them
tomorrow." Goten ushered Bra out of the room.
^_^
Charisma was coming back from stage five when she saw
Starla. She broke into a run. "STARLA! I beat stage five! I beat stage
five! STARLA!"
Starla dropped what she was doing and hugged her best friend. She was crying.
"Oh! Chrissy! You get to go home!" Starla was so happy for her,
wasn't she? Or was she angry that it was Charisma that won her way home?
Nagago entered 'casa' with his usual explosion. He walked over to the two
girls. "Girls, you have both trained hard."
Guapo burst in the door. "Sorry I'm late. Go on, Dad. I didn't mean to
interrupt you."
"Hmph. As I was saying girls, you have both fought and trained very hard,
but to the winner goes the spoils. Girls, it is now time for one of you to go
home. Congratulations, girls. The one of you that is going home is..."
^_^
The girl's body stirred. She tried to sit up, but she
couldn't. She could barely speak. "Mom ... Dad ...what happened? Where am
I? Oh ...I'm so sore. Huh ...Guapo?"
^_^
Who is it? Who woke up? Well, you'll have to read Chapter 3! You can bet
