AN: *Douses Saffirewhassa-face or whatever with a bucket of elephant piss* Well sweetie, incase ya didn't check, my warnings DO mention the fact that it's a yaoi, but as far as "mind-less bitches" go, you're the one to talk if ya didn't see it in the first chapter. And as far as me going to hell, well with people like you existing in the world, doesn't that already make it hell? *pleasant smile*

As he sat down next to Toma at the breakfast table, Goku grinned a grin that seemed to spread from one side of the planet to the other while Brolli remained in line to help himself. Toma glanced at Goku curiously for a few minutes wondering what was wrong with the young saiyan.

"...."

"...."

Toma smirked. "You got laid."

Blushing immediately, Goku turned his head away. "I-I don't know what your talking about." He stammered nervously.

Wrapping an arm around Goku's shoulders Toma laughed loudly. "You can't fool me, boy. I wasn't born yesterday. You've got that look on your face that just screams, 'I got knocked up and I enjoyed it,' written all over it." Finally giving in, Goku sighed and nodded while still trying to hide his flushed face. They were both silent for a few more seconds until Toma couldn't contain himself anymore. "Details." He whispered gruffly.

"Oh you won't believe how gentle he was." Goku immediately piped up as if he were expecting Toma to ask. "The way he touched me and kissed me..." he sighed dreamily, "it was like magic! And he said he loved me in a full sentence." He fluttered on like a love-sick hen; Toma sitting beside Goku rolled his eyes and somewhat nodded taking in every single detail while trying not to laugh.

Raditz, who sat across from both men, pretended not to notice, but leaned in slightly, trying to hear as much of the romantic story as possible. Anxious twiddling fingers, sweaty palms, wide-eyes, Goku didn't realize that as he told more and more of his love-tale, more listeners joined in, excited to hear the story. Soon, two tables had neatly settled as if Goku were Mother Goose reading a nursery rhyme in a day-care. Brolli walked down the rows, noticing the unusual silence but then came across Goku, who was busy recalling the events of last night using his hands as a live diagram. Brolli smiled and took his seat next to the other saiyan on the opposite side of Toma.

Goku laughed as he heard coo's and aw's all over the cafeteria while Brolli playfully leaned over to brush his lips on the rosy cheek of his saiyan cell mate. Raditz bit his tongue with jealousy. It wasn't fair! After all the years of chasing after the tall burly saiyan, here comes his nit wit brother and just takes Brolli all for himself! He clenched his fist tightly in anger and breathed out slowly as so not to draw attention from others around. He stood, his view swiftly roaming over the sea of white jump suits and black, messy hair-styles. He dumped his tray and disposed of it in the washer before leaving the cafeteria and heading for the workout room. Maybe he could get a few minutes of peace prior to the harsh and inhumane game Ginyu probably had planned for all of the prisoners.

~~~~

They all stood in the grand gymnasium located in the main building instead of outside on the black-top, which was extremely rare in most cases. Goku took in his surroundings and gasped in awe at the capacity of the arena. Ginyu had yet to make an appearance today, aside from announcing shower and breakfast times. The heat of the lamps beat down upon their backs worse than the actual intensity of a battle. Suddenly, Ginyu appeared riding atop a floating platform, alone. "Good morning!" he crowed with acid-filled enthusiasm giving Goku an abrupt rush of panic down his spine and up again. He was too happy today... "Today, we have quite a surprise for you all! It seems that our prisoner numbers are more than our cells can hold. So, unfortunately we have to do a bit of exterminating, all from the courtesy of our Pohwella Beast."

Murmurs of disbelief and confusion bustled among the inmates as they stared up at the hovering podium.

"What the hell are you talkin' about?"

"Pohwella what??"

"What's going on?!"

But the only thing the warden gave was an icy cackle as he held up a small remote control and pressed a large button at the top.

All of a sudden, the ground underneath the saiyans' feet began to quiver as a blood-curdling screech rang out loud. "Oh shit," Goku mumbled as he tried to take flight. But before he could summon enough ki, pain shot through his head, blood pounding in his ears. His fingers and toes tingled and he breathed deeply to help ease the pain. //Damn, I forgot that I can't use my ki with these collars on!// The floor top slid apart revealing a few select stone pillars that towered over a pitch-black pit containing the most god-awful creature imaginable.

The pit was completely obscure, preventing any of the saiyans to actually see the Pohwella beast. The flooring slid open rapidly and everyone standing on it fell down towards the angry monster. Many others tried to run in the direction of the panels though it was futile as they all skidded down the rocky sides of the cavity. A few, including Goku, Brolli, Toma, and Raditz scrambled to make it to platforms that were nearby. However the others that were unfortunate became a snack to the Pohwella beast. Goku turned his head and squeezed his eyes shut in an attempt to block out the chilling screams and sickening sounds of bones crunching as the atrocity feasted.

"Let me see you get out of this one, Mr. Superstar." Ginyu mumbled coldly under his breath as he watched proudly from above.

Goku looked about frantically for some type of weapon, escape route, anything! His breathing increased from panic, desperation, surprise. //I knew Ginyu was cruel, but damn!!// He stopped for a moment to regain his senses and gather his surroundings in order to formulate a plan. "Ok," he said to himself, "I'm trapped in a giant pit with a beast that eats people, and I have no way up." He shuddered as the shrill roar grew louder, signaling that the Pohwella was approaching. "Shit, Grandpa Gohan never taught me about this!" The black mysterious abyss underneath the stone columns seemed like a monster itself, threatening to swallow Goku. He leaned over the top to see what was below, however all he could see was gloom, nothing but darkness. "No visibility down there, that Pohwella whatever must live in the dark." Goku concluded to himself. "So as long as I stay up here in the light..."

But that thought was quickly doused as the floor panels above began to close up together. As the creature walked, about the cavern, the entire arena shook as if there were an earthquake. "This thing must be big if it can make the whole place shake whenever it moves." The small area of light grew dimmer and dimmer as the doors grew closer and closer together until finally all went black. //This is just great.// Thought Goku as he stumbled about miserably trying to find his way, but unfortunately he slipped on the edge of the stone pillar and plummeted to the ground. Flailing about he landed with a hard thud and cried out as his back hit the stony ground.

He lay down on the gravel bed staring straight up. //I can't even tell if my eyes are open or closed.// The sound of the footsteps increased and Goku listened carefully.

*Thwump....thwump....thwump....thwump.....*

"It's paces are separated a bit distantly. It must walk on two legs. It obviously eats meat, and it doesn't like the light." The young saiyan scrambled to his feet and proceeded forward in a fairly slow pace. Placing one foot in front of the other cautiously, Goku searched for a wall or a pillar, something he could lean up against. Suddenly, a flashback of training with his late grandfather hit him.

~A small, chubby boy with wild hair stood out in the fields of a beautiful meadow wearing a blindfold.

"Now remember, Goku, in a battle, your eyes may not always be able to help you defend against your enemy. You must learn to rely on other senses."

The young Goku held his naiybo warily as he stepped forward once. Listening meticulously he could hear the caw of a crow through the wind, the soft blades of green grass rustling together, the raspy breathing of his old grandfather. Though he could not see much, he knew there was a lot around him. He felt a shift in the air and immediately put up his naiybo in a defensive position just as his grandfather launched a swift kick to the head.

"See." You don't have to have your eyes to fight. Why some of the greatest fighters I have competed against were blind. Sight is only a tool, not a necessity." ~~~

//Only a tool.// Goku repeated in his mind as he listened carefully. Scuffles of panicked feet scattered about the rocks, other saiyans who were to afraid to calm down and reason no doubt. Without warning, Goku sensed a piquant heat from behind and growled in defense. He nearly turned to attack whatever was at his back until two familiar strong arms encircled themselves around his hips.

"Goku."

"Brolli." Goku whispered. Turning around he instantly found Brolli's lips with his own, glad to find the other man in this pitch-blackness. The burly man eagerly kissed back , hugging his cellmate possessively.

He pulled back and kept his voice at a minimum. "Brolli, we've got to find a way to kill this thing."

"Hm." The larger man nodded in the darkness.

"But how...?" Goku shivered as more unnerving screams of agony echoed through the treacherous pit.

A solid hand found his and squeezed it. Goku smirked. "I've got it." His heart beat with a heavy ache knowing what he had to do. He sighed and turned to face his lover although he could not see him visually. He took both of Brolli's hands in between his own. "B-Brolli, I want you to get as many of the prisoners as possible on the farthest side of this place. I'll lead the monster in another and...."

A disagreeable growl erupted from Brolli's chest. "N-No! Goku!" He tightened his grip on the smaller pair of hands as if he were keeping him from leaving. "Stay," he murmured clumsily as he pulled his object of affection closer.

However Goku shook his head and pressed himself to Brolli's massive chest. "You have to understand Brolli, I gotta do this. It's the only way." Standing on his toes he shared a kiss with his young but tall inmate. "Please," he begged. "Just get as many other saiya-jins as you can away from this thing." He shivered as Brolli's huge hand caressed his dry cheek. "I-I love you." He spoke quietly and hugged Brolli tightly.

"I love you, Goku." Brolli replied, petting Goku's soft, thick locks. A long kiss was shared before they both separated, Brolli setting out to herd all the saiyans to one side of the arena, Goku springing to battle the Pohwella head on.

Sprinting lightly, he ran creating as little as sound as possible. Listening attentively, he heard it's cry. Goku wrinkled his nose in disgust from all the foul odors plaguing the area; the smells of flesh, blood, and a foreign musk that must have been the reeking scent of the beast clotted his nasal canals nearly making him gag. Heavy boots made almost no noise as Goku dashed in a direction parallel to the Pohwella, using the balls of his feet to cover ground quickly. Another scream pierced the dark followed by the crunch of bones. Goku narrowed his eyes and stopped directly behind the beast, or so he judged and took up a well-sized rock and a sharper rock in his hand. //That was your last saiyan.// Winding back his left arm, he let the stone fly. A thick "Clomp!" signaled that Goku had indeed landed his target and gritted his teeth as he heard it let out a frustrated howl. The scuffle of gravel stones told Goku that the Pohwella beast was in the process of turning around and it was taking quite some time for it to do so. //Hm, this thing must be so big that it can't maneuver too well in this place. I guess that's an advantage for me.//

~~

Toma easily dashed across the field, hopping over rocks and body parts effortlessly. Purging many planets away from stars made great experience for a situation like this; his eyes had become so used to darkness that he had nearly developed a second vision. Looking back he could hear and practically make out the huge creature lumbering about and devouring saiyans. It was gigantic but fairly simple from what Toma could comprehend. He could barely see four limbs, one pair slightly smaller than the other and a head shaped like an imperfect oval. The entire thing was smooth and sleek like a lizard all together. But what Toma couldn't understand was that its eyes did not show up in the darkness. Like night-creatures, Toma expected the Pohwella to use light-reflecting cells in optic sacs located in the eyes. //It's as if...that thing has no eyes.// "Oomph!" Toma, despite is avidity in the dark ran into warm, sold flesh. He sniffed the air lightly. "Brolli?" Sniffing again he caught the scent of Raditz and a few others.

"Toma." Brolli's voice spoke lowly. "Follow." Not questioning the burly saiyan, Toma obeyed and joined the saiyan group. He sniffed roughly again but found one familiar scent was missing. //But...where's Goku??//

~~~

Dashing madly across the gym bottom, Goku hopped over large boulders and stumbled over cracks as he avoided the jaws of the Pohwella beast. He felt the air around him change and ran to one side as the thing came down to bite the other, only to receive a mouthful of rocks. It reared back on it's hind legs to bellow in frustration then lowered itself on all fours, galloping to reach its assailant faster.

Goku also picked up speed, but began to panic as he heard his own footsteps echo louder. //I must be getting closer to a wall.// He thought. Although it seemed like a dead end, Goku only increased his pace even more, another risky idea forming in his brain. He smirked as he heard the beast speed up as well. Just before he slammed into the wall he ran up the side without slowing down and braced himself.

"BLAM!~!"

Pebbles fell down the sides of the gym as the Pohwella ran directly into the wall, just as Goku planned. "Now's my chance. Please, kami-sama, give me strength." He whispered to himself as he pushed from the wall and did a back flip into the air, spinning into a ball once before righting his body to land on the beast's head, readying the dagger-like stone in one hand. Unfortunately, the Pohwella recovered faster than Goku had expected and opened it's mouth as Goku fell inside.

~~~

They all had managed to crowd into one corner of the pit, listening curiously as the roars and snorts of the Pohwella fluctuated in volume. They began to whisper among themselves.

"Is Goku fighting that thing all by himself?"

"That guy's gotta be crazy, especially since nobody can see anything here."

Toma frowned as he mentally disagreed with the starkly given comment. He watched perfectly as Goku fled for his life, dodging the Pohwella just barely. His heart raced from watching the edgy scene. Widening his eyes, Toma saw that Goku was headed straight for a wall. "Doesn't he know he's gonna--?" He bubbled quietly. However he stepped back in surprised and gasped as he witnessed Goku run up the side to allow the beast to crash into it. He did a back flip and readied himself to land atop the creature's head. "He just might do it..." But his hopes were soon crushed as the Pohwella lift its head, open its treacherous jaws and swallow Goku whole.

Toma stopped breathing.

Raditz sensed the older saiyan tense up suddenly and turned towards the direction of his body heat. "What....? What's happening?" Raditz asked a little too loudly.

Instantly, Toma fell to his knees and gripped the dirt between calloused fingers. "I....I failed you, koi."

~~~

Goku, slowly opened his eyes and stiffened as he took in his surroundings. "Where am I...?" It all came back to him, the battle between the Pohwella and he, the attempt to stab the creature in the head, the sight of thousands of teeth as he fell into the thing's mouth. Sticky liquid dripped from the ceiling and into...a lake? Standing up slowly he looked around to discover he was floating on a platform of stone, in the middle of a lake of stomach acid?

He was in the belly of the Pohwella beast.

TBC.

AN: Good? Bad? Needs a lil more 'Oomph!?' R&R onegai. ^_^
