Goku and Vegeta did get a night rest but still were tired when they woke up. They wanted to go home and eat food that wasn't made from plastic. It was food true, but it sure didn't taste like it. Now Goku and Vegeta were waiting for the coffee to get done so they could be somewhat awake. Breakfast was some food from a rat or some sort so they gather food that was still edible from the broken ship. Oh how they wanted to get home.
The coffee began to brew and Goku and Vegeta watched it. The place did have sugar crystals but it didn't taste like sugar. It was more like a plastic with a strawberry twist to it. Goten and Trunks tried it but it didn't go with their approval. So they got sugar for their coffee that was still brewing. Milo and Moy went somewhere and Gohan was still resting, so they thought.
Gohan came trudging down the stairs sliding his feet behind him. He took a deep yawn as he headed towards the kitchen with his eyes half way open. He walked by Goten and Trunks and gave them a wave before headed over to the coffee. It was done brewing when it he came and grabbed one of the mugs that was Goku's. He grabbed the coffee and poured it in the cup. Goku and Vegeta were distracted trying to get some food before Goten and Trunks ate it while Gohan took most of the coffee.
Gohan grabbed some milk and poured it. He grabbed the sugar container and poured out sugar, and poured, and poured, and poured until there was no more sugar left. He stirred it with a spoon and took a sip. He pulled back in disgust and added whatever was left of the sugar. It was finally perfect and he plopped down next to his father.
" Look who's up," Goku cried. " It's Gohan!"
" Hm," Gohan replied taking a sip of his coffee and eyes still have way shut.
" We are going home today but you need to fix the ship. Think you can do that?"
" Whatever."
" Good! Right after breakfast you can fix the ship and we can get home," Vegeta said.
" Right now I have a major headache about the size of Namek and it hurts," Gohan said shutting his eyes and opening them. " I'll fix it when I'm better. Right now I just want to finish my coffee, go back to bed and wake up when needed."
" We want to go home," Goten said tugging on Gohan's nightgown. " I miss Mommy and Chobi is supposed to learn how to fly soon. I want to be there to help him!"
" And I want my gravity room," Vegeta said. " I hate staying on this planet!"
" I hate this food," Trunks said. " And I hate seeing everything so.clear."
" And I miss your mother," Goku said. " I know you're not well but did Bulma give you an extra capsule by any chance?"
" If our prince needs his rest then let him rest," Moy said appearing out of nowhere and standing behind Gohan. " Finish your coffee and I'll lead you to your room. You look awfully tired."
" I'm like this every morning," Gohan said folding his arms and resting his head on them. " Wait until the coffee kicks in and I'll be fine. Night."
" You brat," Vegeta yelled. " I want to go home and I want to go home now! I am not waiting until you wake up and think everything is fine and dandy! I want to go home!"
" There's a capsule in my gi pocket," Gohan mumbled. " Go home and let me sleep."
" You're coming with us," Goku said. " Unless you want to stay here and I don't understand why."
" Where I can sleep I can stay."
" Your not fully awake yet," Goku said putting his hand on Gohan's shoulder. " Rest up for a while and we'll leave when you're ready."
" Or we can bring back the people that died and you can rule once again," Moy said. Gohan raised up his head and his eyes were fully open, for once.
" What do you mean," he asked. " You mean the people that died can come back if Prince Syrus rules once again? How is that possible?"
" It is," Moy said with a smile. " Prince Syrus would be happy to rule once again and make his parents proud, like you would like to make your parents proud. Sadly though, they never seem to notice."
" Hey," Goku said cutting in. " Gohan makes both his mother and me proud!"
" He does, we know," Moy said. " But the Cell Games sure doesn't make Gohan feel proud, does it? Not coming back when asked, what kind of father are you?"
" It was my fault Cell came," Goku said. " I just wanted to protect my family and have no more evil afoot."
" And nothing happened during those seven years when you weren't home, right Gohan?"
Gohan looked up at his father and at Moy.
" Well," Gohan began to say. " Nothing really happened but-"
" And left Goten without a father," Moy said turning towards Goten. " And you went through changes that you didn't understand? Who did you turn to?"
" Actually I-"
" Fatherless as a young boy and grew up a man," Moy said walking away. " Prince Syrus's father was also dead but if he had a choice to come back, he would love to see his son succeed. His father would be proud of him, unlike some fathers who don't even know their son's favorite color."
Moy walked away and Goku looked at Gohan.
" You're favorite color is blue, right," Goku asked.
" No," Gohan answered.
" Red?"
" No."
" I know Goten likes purple, right?"
" Yep," Goten answered.
" Then it was brown?"
" Black dad," Gohan said getting up from his seat. " I need to think about this."
" Think about it," Goku questioned. " You're going home after you take a nap. You are not staying on a deserted planet when you have family and friends are on Earth."
" And a kingdom that has a chance to be a kingdom."
" How?"
" Moy said that there was a chance and if there is then why not."
" This isn't the past," Goku said. " You are Gohan, not Prince Syrus-"
" But Prince Syrus is part of me," Gohan yelled as he banged his hands on the table.
" He shouldn't even exist Gohan! You are going home and that's final!"
" Make me!"
" Make you," Goku said raising an eyebrow. " I am your father Gohan, you WILL come home and you WILL get your act together!"
" I will not," Gohan shouted as he turned to leave.
" Stop being immature Gohan," Goku said following Gohan. Gohan turned around and flew his hands up in the air.
" Last time I checked, you don't make my decisions for me!"
" Last time I checked, I was your father and you should listen to me!"
" Why should I?"
" Because I said so," Goku shouted. " Now get changed and get the capsule so we can go home!"
" You can go but I won't," Gohan shouted making a tight fist. " I'm Prince Syrus and it is my responsibility to take care of the planet and its people."
" What people," Goku said extending out his arms. " Milo and Moy are the only people here! Who else can you take care of, yourself? If you can't take care the responsibility of a planet then what says that you can take responsibility of yourself?"
" You shouldn't be talking Dad! You can't even take responsibility of your own family none the less the responsibility of your own sons! You can't even take care of yourself, Mom, or anyone! It's my choice, not yours! Now get off of my planet before I kill you all!"
Gohan was breathing rather heavy and was very tense. Goku stood there in shock while the others watched. Somehow Vegeta had a bag of popcorn but that's not really important now. Gohan shut his eyes and placed his hands on his forehead.
" I'm sorry," he said taking a deep breath. " I'm just too tired to be fighting right now. All I want to do is get some rest and go home."
" Our home," Goten asked.
" Yes our home Goten," Gohan replied giving Goten a weak smile. " Just a few more Z's and I'll be fine. I'm just cranky."
" After having a pound of sugar in your coffee," Vegeta remarked. " I'm surprised that you're not jumping off the walls like these two brats."
" Leave him alone Vegeta," Goku said. He turned to Gohan and smiled. " Just get some rest, okay son? You really need it right now."
" Thanks Dad," Gohan said smiling back. " Could you come with me? I just want to make sure that I don't pass out while going up the stairs."
" I can do that for you Prince," Milo said appearing out of nowhere like Moy. " Let your father finish up his breakfast. It would only be polite."
" I don't mind," Goku said giving Milo a look. " I'm done anyway."
" But it's only polite to leave when everyone leaves," Milo said with a smile. " You want to be polite, don't you?"
" BURP!"
" Good one Goten," Trunks cried. " Let me try..Burp!"
" Mine was better," Goten said.
" BLEECH!"
" Woah Dad," Trunks said. " That was the best!"
" What can I say, I'm a pro," Vegeta said using a toothpick to clean his teeth.
" Do matters really matter right now," Goku asked. " Saiyans are not known for matters."
" But Vegeta did really good," Gohan said. " I don't have it in my system to get one out like Vegeta."
" You will not!"
Gohan saw Milo and Moy both standing there looking rather mad.
" You will not fall for such childish acts," Milo said folding his arms. " You are a prince, not a low class man."
" Those low class men are my friends and family," Gohan said. " I'm not the prince you know. I'm Gohan, not Prince Syrus."
" You are Prince Syrus and Prince Syrus is you," Moy said. " You cannot change that no matter how hard you try. Now get some rest before you do your studies."
" My what?"
" Your studies," Milo repeated. " You told your family to go while you stayed. You did say that, didn't you?"
Gohan was about to say something but then remembered that he did say that. He did tell his family to leave and that he would stay.
" I didn't mean to say that," Gohan said. " I'm just cranky and tired. I want to go home to my planet."
" Does Prince Syrus want to go back," Moy asked with a grin. " Is he happy being with you or does he want to stay? But if you want to go home then go. I just guess that the people that died are going to be dead and never see their families ever again."
" Wait," Gohan cried. " Let me think about it some more."
" What," Goku cried. " What's there to think about?"
" I don't know," Gohan said with a shrug. " Just.to think, you know? I'll be going back to bed if anyone needs me. Wake me in two hours."
Gohan headed upstairs dragging his feet behind him. A slight rumble stopped him in his tracks and everyone else. The small rumble soon became an earthquake and Gohan had trouble keeping his balance. The ground gave way but he stopped his fall by clutching the step.
" Gohan," Goku cried.
" I'm fine," Gohan said pulling himself up. " What's going on?"
" It's her," Milo said. He turned to Gohan. " Quickly, you must get out of here!"
" In a nightgown?"
" Just hurry up to your chambers and take the passage in your closet," Moy said. " We will meet you there. Hurry Prince!"
Gohan gave a nod as he ran up the stairs.
" Follow us," Milo said. " We can in safety before she comes."
" She who," Goku asked.
Goku didn't get an answer as he followed Milo and Moy. They ran near a statue and pressed down on the candle and the floor gave way. Milo and Moy landed safely on the ground while Vegeta got crushed underneath Goku, Goten and Trunks.
" Squish the lemon, my favorite game," Goku joked as he was on top of the pile.
" No time for games Kakkorot," Vegeta growled. " Get off of me before I kill you!"
" Why should I?"
" Because I said so and this place is falling apart!"
Goku got off and Vegeta stood up knocking down Goten and Trunks along the way. They were in the same place before where they found Gohan and when they first met Milo and Moy. Gohan was nowhere in sight as Milo and Moy worked on a computer.
" When did you have a computer," Goku asked.
" We always had one," Milo said typing a few keys that were transparent and lit up when you touched them.
" Oh."
Milo and Moy typed up a few things while the planet began to shake. Gohan was still nowhere to be found.
" Where's Gohan," Goku asked. " He could be hurt being upstairs!"
" He should be here by now," Milo said looking up at the screen. " What could be taking him so long? Oh prince, please hurry."
Vegeta noticed on the screen a person standing there with a staff using a dark crystal to destroy the planet. She was female, tall with extremely pale skin. She had long black hair that went all the way down to her feet. She had on a black dress that showed off some of her stomach and went down to her feet also.
" Who's she," Vegeta asked. " And why is she destroying the planet."
" She is the queen of Ohgiyu," Moy said getting a profile of her. " Her name is Hino, the prince's half aunt."
" Half," Goku questioned.
" She was the half sister of the queen," Moy said. " She was destined to be queen of this planet but her sister, the queen, set up a lie so she could marry the king. Hino wanted her revenge on her sister, Hina, so she attacked the planet when the king and queen were dead. She would let Prince Syrus live only if he married her. Prince Syrus declined and she created the Ohgiyu to destroy the planet she would have ruled and poisoned the prince. When he died, she knew we wanted the prince reincarnated so she killed the people and awaited the prince's return."
" And he did," Milo said looking at the screen. " Now Hino knows and wants to kill him herself and not from her servants. She wants him dead permanently.and this planet"
" Then lets get out of here," Vegeta cried.
" We can't leave without Gohan," Goku said.
" We can't leave my big brother," Goten said. " Where is he Daddy?"
" I don't know Goten," Goku answered.
" He's out there," Milo cried. Goku looked on the screen and saw not Gohan, but Prince Syrus. Goku and the others ran out to stop him or something. " He's so brave our Prince Syrus. He would do anything to save everyone."
" Expect himself," Vegeta cried. " He's a fool to go out there without a plan!"
" And exploding yourself to kill Majin Buu was a plan," Goku said. Vegeta growled as they were outside and found Prince Syrus standing there looking up at Hino. The attacks have stopped and Hino was right in front of Syrus.
" You're people have come," Hino said in low, soft voice. " Is this all that you have left on this planet? Two followers and these guys? You haven't changed at all Syrus."
" And you're still as ugly as ever," Syrus said. In reality, Hino was beautiful. She had the strangest eyes that were yellow, yet when you looked at them, you felt like that here eyes were going to kill you. " Why are you still living? You're supposed to be an old hag with gray hair holding a cane."
" This is how you treat family," Hino said with a laugh. " I haven't seen you in years. So which body did you take over, hm?"
" One that has made me stronger Hino. You remember the story about the saiyans?"
" That weak race? Oh please."
" That weak race is my people," Vegeta yelled. " All of us are super saiyans and could kill you in a matter of minutes."
" Stay out of this Vegeta," Syrus said blocking Vegeta. " This is not you battle. Why Hino?"
" You could have been my son Syrus," Hino said lightly touching his cheek. " You could have had more power than what you already have from your weak mother."
" My mother was not weak," Syrus said slapping Hino's hand away. " She was much wiser than you and more powerful than you think. She wasn't a rat like you."
" She stole my role as a queen," Hino shouted as she floated backwards. " My offer is still up from a thousand years ago Syrus."
" And I still decline!"
" Then your planet will be destroyed along with your so called family. Goodbye Syrus."
Hino's dark crystal began to glow and Syrus's eyes grew wide.
" Everyone inside now," Syrus shouted. " Milo, Moy, set up the shield while I distract her!"
" You can't," Goku cried. " Her dark crystal is stronger than you. You can be killed!"
" I would rather die then let you or anyone else get hurt!"
" But Gohan-"
" Gohan knows," Syrus said. " He doesn't want you to die again Goku! He wants to do something right for once, he wants to make you proud and if it means his life then let it!"
" What about you? You can die again and this planet will no longer exist and neither would me or anyone else here! What's the use?"
" I can try!"
" I won't let you," Goku said grabbing Syrus and using Instant Transmission to get him out of the way. They reappeared with the others down where the computer was. Milo and Moy were in a panic.
" The shield isn't working," Milo said looking at Prince Syrus. " The dark crystal is malfunctioning the power of the sun crystal! This planet will not make it."
" Yes it will," Syrus said pulling out of Goku's grip and heading towards the computer. He hit a few buttons and nothing happened. " This is not going to happen again! I will not allow it!"
" Then there's only one thing that we can do," Moy said turning towards Milo. " We have to get the prince out of here. We cannot let him die again."
" But how," Milo asked. " How are we going to get him to safety?"
" We have to use the pod," Moy said. " It can fit five people and that's enough to get Prince Syrus and the others to safety. Hopefully Hino wouldn't notice and if we're lucky, Hino will die with this planet."
" Then it's settled."
Milo and Moy both turned to Syrus with smiles. Syrus turned back and saw the two. He knew what they were up to but before he could get a word in, the floor gave way from Syrus and the others and fell through the ground.
" Goodbye Prince Syrus," Milo said.
" At least this time you can live the life we wanted you to," Moy said.
Syrus, Goku, Goten, Trunks, and Vegeta landed in a space pod like the one they came in. Syrus stood up but the hole they fell through closed up. The pod started and shot out through the ground of the planet. Syrus ran to the window and saw his planet getting farther and farther away. The planet turned black and then white. Within seconds, the planet blew up into pieces.
" No," Syrus cried as he saw his planet blown up. " Milo, Moy! I have to get out of here! They could still be alive!"
Goku placed his hand on Syrus's shoulder and shook his head.
" I'm sorry," he said. " But with an explosion like that they wouldn't make it. They're gone Syrus, along with the planet."
Syrus aimed his scepter at Goku.
" It's all your fault," he cried. " If you never brought me back to my planet then it would still be there! I would have been sleeping until I die and my planet would still be there! You imbecile! It's all your fault!"
The crystal on Syrus's scepter glowed but then died down as Syrus fell down to his knees.
" This body.is too weak," Syrus said.
" I'm sorry," Goku apologized once again. " But there is nothing we can do. We can't use the Dragonballs since we already used them up for something else but we can try and wish the planet back if you-"
" Hino will destroy it again," Syrus yelled forcing himself to stand up. " I have lost my parents, my people, my followers and my planet. You can't wish them all back with the Dragonballs! I don't even know why Gohan wants to make you proud. You mess everything up and if one person makes a choice, you kill it and do your own thing. I would never, never have a father like you!"
Syrus weakly got up and disappeared underneath into a room. Goten stood next to his father and lightly tugged on his pants. Goku looked down at his young son.
" I still love you Daddy," Goten said. " You were just trying to help Syrus, weren't you?"
" I don't think it was Syrus," Goku said. " For some reason or another."
Was Gohan really saying that, or was it Prince Syrus? And what ever happed to Hino? We'll soon find out, next time on Dragonball Z, er, Prince of Crystalline! *DBZ music end theme plays*
Goku and Vegeta did get a night rest but still were tired when they woke up. They wanted to go home and eat food that wasn't made from plastic. It was food true, but it sure didn't taste like it. Now Goku and Vegeta were waiting for the coffee to get done so they could be somewhat awake.

He stirred it with a spoon and took a sip. He pulled back in disgust and added whatever was left of the sugar. It was finally perfect and he plopped down next to his father.
" Look who's up," Goku cried. " It's Gohan!"
" Hm," Gohan replied taking a sip of his coffee and eyes still have way shut.
" We are going home today but you need to fix the ship. Think you can do that?"
" Whatever."
" Good! Right after breakfast you can fix the ship and we can get home," Vegeta said.
" Right now I have a major headache about the size of Namek and it hurts," Gohan said shutting his eyes and opening them. " I'll fix it when I'm better. Right now I just want to finish my coffee, go back to bed and wake up when needed."
" We want to go home," Goten said tugging on Gohan's nightgown. " I miss Mommy and Chobi is supposed to learn how to fly soon. I want to be there to help him!"
" And I want my gravity room," Vegeta said. " I hate staying on this planet!"
" I hate this food," Trunks said. " And I hate seeing everything so.clear."
" And I miss your mother," Goku said. " I know you're not well but did Bulma give you an extra capsule by any chance?"
" If our prince needs his rest then let him rest," Moy said appearing out of nowhere and standing behind Gohan. " Finish your coffee and I'll lead you to your room. You look awfully tired."
" I'm like this every morning," Gohan said folding his arms and resting his head on them. " Wait until the coffee kicks in and I'll be fine. Night."
" You brat," Vegeta yelled. " I want to go home and I want to go home now! I am not waiting until you wake up and think everything is fine and dandy! I want to go home!"
" There's a capsule in my gi pocket," Gohan mumbled. " Go home and let me sleep."
" You're coming with us," Goku said. " Unless you want to stay here and I don't understand why."
" Where I can sleep I can stay."
" Your not fully awake yet," Goku said putting his hand on Gohan's shoulder. " Rest up for a while and we'll leave when you're ready."
" Or we can bring back the people that died and you can rule once again," Moy said. Gohan raised up his head and his eyes were fully open, for once.
" What do you mean," he asked. " You mean the people that died can come back if Prince Syrus rules once again? How is that possible?"
" It is," Moy said with a smile. " Prince Syrus would be happy to rule once again and make his parents proud, like you would like to make your parents proud. Sadly though, they never seem to notice."
" Hey," Goku said cutting in. " Gohan makes both his mother and me proud!"
" He does, we know," Moy said. " But the Cell Games sure doesn't make Gohan feel proud, does it? Not coming back when asked, what kind of father are you?"
" It was my fault Cell came," Goku said. " I just wanted to protect my family and have no more evil afoot."
" And nothing happened during those seven years when you weren't home, right Gohan?"
Gohan looked up at his father and at Moy.
" Well," Gohan began to say. " Nothing really happened but-"
" And left Goten without a father," Moy said turning towards Goten. " And you went through changes that you didn't understand? Who did you turn to?"
" Actually I-"
" Fatherless as a young boy and grew up a man," Moy said walking away. " Prince Syrus's father was also dead but if he had a choice to come back, he would love to see his son succeed. His father would be proud of him, unlike some fathers who don't even know their son's favorite color."
Moy walked away and Goku looked at Gohan.
" You're favorite color is blue, right," Goku asked.
" No," Gohan answered.
" Red?"
" No."
" I know Goten likes purple, right?"
" Yep," Goten answered.
" Then it was brown?"
" Black dad," Gohan said getting up from his seat. " I need to think about this."
" Think about it," Goku questioned. " You're going home after you take a nap. You are not staying on a deserted planet when you have family and friends are on Earth."
" And a kingdom that has a chance to be a kingdom."
" How?"
" Moy said that there was a chance and if there is then why not."
" This isn't the past," Goku said. " You are Gohan, not Prince Syrus-"
" But Prince Syrus is part of me," Gohan yelled as he banged his hands on the table.
" He shouldn't even exist Gohan! You are going home and that's final!"
" Make me!"
" Make you," Goku said raising an eyebrow. " I am your father Gohan, you WILL come home and you WILL get your act together!"
" I will not," Gohan shouted as he turned to leave.
" Stop being immature Gohan," Goku said following Gohan. Gohan turned around and flew his hands up in the air.
" Last time I checked, you don't make my decisions for me!"
" Last time I checked, I was your father and you should listen to me!"
" Why should I?"
" Because I said so," Goku shouted. " Now get changed and get the capsule so we can go home!"
" You can go but I won't," Gohan shouted making a tight fist. " I'm Prince Syrus and it is my responsibility to take care of the planet and its people."
" What people," Goku said extending out his arms. " Milo and Moy are the only people here! Who else can you take care of, yourself? If you can't take care the responsibility of a planet then what says that you can take responsibility of yourself?"
" You shouldn't be talking Dad! You can't even take responsibility of your own family none the less the responsibility of your own sons! You can't even take care of yourself, Mom, or anyone! It's my choice, not yours! Now get off of my planet before I kill you all!"
Gohan was breathing rather heavy and was very tense. Goku stood there in shock while the others watched. Somehow Vegeta had a bag of popcorn but that's not really important now. Gohan shut his eyes and placed his hands on his forehead.
" I'm sorry," he said taking a deep breath. " I'm just too tired to be fighting right now. All I want to do is get some rest and go home."
" Our home," Goten asked.
" Yes our home Goten," Gohan replied giving Goten a weak smile. " Just a few more Z's and I'll be fine. I'm just cranky."
" After having a pound of sugar in your coffee," Vegeta remarked. " I'm surprised that you're not jumping off the walls like these two brats."
" Leave him alone Vegeta," Goku said. He turned to Gohan and smiled. " Just get some rest, okay son? You really need it right now."

" Do matters really matter right now," Goku asked. " Saiyans are not known for matters."
" But Vegeta did really good," Gohan said. " I don't have it in my system to get one out like Vegeta."
" You will not!"
Gohan saw Milo and Moy both standing there looking rather mad.
" You will not fall for such childish acts," Milo said folding his arms. " You are a prince, not a low class man."
" Those low class men are my friends and family," Gohan said. " I'm not the prince you know. I'm Gohan, not Prince Syrus."
" You are Prince Syrus and Prince Syrus is you," Moy said. " You cannot change that no matter how hard you try. Now get some rest before you do your studies."
" My what?"
" Your studies," Milo repeated. " You told your family to go while you stayed. You did say that, didn't you?"
Gohan was about to say something but then remembered that he did say that. He did tell his family to leave and that he would stay.
" I didn't mean to say that," Gohan said. " I'm just cranky and tired. I want to go home to my planet."
" Does Prince Syrus want to go back," Moy asked with a grin. " Is he happy being with you or does he want to stay? But if you want to go home then go. I just guess that the people that died are going to be dead and never see their families ever again."
" Wait," Gohan cried. " Let me think about it some more."

" Just hurry up to your chambers and take the passage in your closet," Moy said. " We will meet you there. Hurry Prince!"
Gohan gave a nod as he ran up the stairs.
" Follow us," Milo said. " We can in safety before she comes."
" She who," Goku asked.
Goku didn't get an answer as he followed Milo and Moy. They ran near a statue and pressed down on the candle and the floor gave way. Milo and Moy landed safely on the ground while Vegeta got crushed underneath Goku, Goten and Trunks.

" When did you have a computer," Goku asked.
" We always had one," Milo said typing a few keys that were transparent and lit up when you touched them.
" Oh."
Milo and Moy typed up a few things while the planet began to shake. Gohan was still nowhere to be found.
" Where's Gohan," Goku asked. " He could be hurt being upstairs!"
" He should be here by now," Milo said looking up at the screen. " What could be taking him so long? Oh prince, please hurry."
Vegeta noticed on the screen a person standing there with a staff using a dark crystal to destroy the planet. She was female, tall with extremely pale skin. She had long black hair that went all the way down to her feet. She had on a black dress that showed off some of her stomach and went down to her feet also.
" Who's she," Vegeta asked. " And why is she destroying the planet."
" She is the queen of Ohgiyu," Moy said getting a profile of her. " Her name is Hino, the prince's half aunt."
" Half," Goku questioned.
" She was the half sister of the queen," Moy said. " She was destined to be queen of this planet but her sister, the queen, set up a lie so she could marry the king. Hino wanted her revenge on her sister, Hina, so she attacked the planet when the king and queen were dead. She would let Prince Syrus live only if he married her. Prince Syrus declined and she created the Ohgiyu to destroy the planet she would have ruled and poisoned the prince. When he died, she knew we wanted the prince reincarnated so she killed the people and awaited the prince's return."
" And he did," Milo said looking at the screen. " Now Hino knows and wants to kill him herself and not from her servants. She wants him dead permanently.and this planet"
" Then lets get out of here," Vegeta cried.
" We can't leave without Gohan," Goku said.
" We can't leave my big brother," Goten said. " Where is he Daddy?"
" I don't know Goten," Goku answered.
" He's out there," Milo cried. Goku looked on the screen and saw not Gohan, but Prince Syrus. Goku and the others ran out to stop him or something. " He's so brave our Prince Syrus. He would do anything to save everyone."
" Expect himself," Vegeta cried. " He's a fool to go out there without a plan!"
" And exploding yourself to kill Majin Buu was a plan," Goku said. Vegeta growled as they were outside and found Prince Syrus standing there looking up at Hino. The attacks have stopped and Hino was right in front of Syrus.
" You're people have come," Hino said in low, soft voice. " Is this all that you have left on this planet? Two followers and these guys? You haven't changed at all Syrus."
" And you're still as ugly as ever," Syrus said. In reality, Hino was beautiful. She had the strangest eyes that were yellow, yet when you looked at them, you felt like that here eyes were going to kill you. " Why are you still living? You're supposed to be an old hag with gray hair holding a cane."
" This is how you treat family," Hino said with a laugh. " I haven't seen you in years. So which body did you take over, hm?"
" One that has made me stronger Hino. You remember the story about the saiyans?"
" That weak race? Oh please."
" That weak race is my people," Vegeta yelled. " All of us are super saiyans and could kill you in a matter of minutes."
" Stay out of this Vegeta," Syrus said blocking Vegeta. " This is not you battle. Why Hino?"
" You could have been my son Syrus," Hino said lightly touching his cheek. " You could have had more power than what you already have from your weak mother."
" My mother was not weak," Syrus said slapping Hino's hand away. " She was much wiser than you and more powerful than you think. She wasn't a rat like you."
" She stole my role as a queen," Hino shouted as she floated backwards. " My offer is still up from a thousand years ago Syrus."
" And I still decline!"
" Then your planet will be destroyed along with your so called family. Goodbye Syrus."
Hino's dark crystal began to glow and Syrus's eyes grew wide.
" Everyone inside now," Syrus shouted. " Milo, Moy, set up the shield while I distract her!"
" You can't," Goku cried. " Her dark crystal is stronger than you. You can be killed!"
" I would rather die then let you or anyone else get hurt!"
" But Gohan-"
" Gohan knows," Syrus said. " He doesn't want you to die again Goku! He wants to do something right for once, he wants to make you proud and if it means his life then let it!"
" What about you? You can die again and this planet will no longer exist and neither would me or anyone else here! What's the use?"
" I can try!"
" I won't let you," Goku said grabbing Syrus and using Instant Transmission to get him out of the way. They reappeared with the others down where the computer was. Milo and Moy were in a panic.
" The shield isn't working," Milo said looking at Prince Syrus. " The dark crystal is malfunctioning the power of the sun crystal! This planet will not make it."
" Yes it will," Syrus said pulling out of Goku's grip and heading towards the computer. He hit a few buttons and nothing happened. " This is not going to happen again! I will not allow it!"
" Then there's only one thing that we can do," Moy said turning towards Milo. " We have to get the prince out of here. We cannot let him die again."
" But how," Milo asked. " How are we going to get him to safety?"
" We have to use the pod," Moy said. " It can fit five people and that's enough to get Prince Syrus and the others to safety. Hopefully Hino wouldn't notice and if we're lucky, Hino will die with this planet."
" Then it's settled."
Milo and Moy both turned to Syrus with smiles. Syrus turned back and saw the two. He knew what they were up to but before he could get a word in, the floor gave way from Syrus and the others and fell through the ground.
" Goodbye Prince Syrus," Milo said.
" At least this time you can live the life we wanted you to," Moy said.
Syrus, Goku, Goten, Trunks, and Vegeta landed in a space pod like the one they came in. Syrus stood up but the hole they fell through closed up. The pod started and shot out through the ground of the planet. Syrus ran to the window and saw his planet getting farther and farther away. The planet turned black and then white. Within seconds, the planet blew up into pieces.
" No," Syrus cried as he saw his planet blown up. " Milo, Moy! I have to get out of here! They could still be alive!"
Goku placed his hand on Syrus's shoulder and shook his head.
" I'm sorry," he said. " But with an explosion like that they wouldn't make it. They're gone Syrus, along with the planet."
Syrus aimed his scepter at Goku.
" It's all your fault," he cried. " If you never brought me back to my planet then it would still be there! I would have been sleeping until I die and my planet would still be there! You imbecile! It's all your fault!"
The crystal on Syrus's scepter glowed but then died down as Syrus fell down to his knees.
" This body.is too weak," Syrus said.
" I'm sorry," Goku apologized once again. " But there is nothing we can do. We can't use the Dragonballs since we already used them up for something else but we can try and wish the planet back if you-"
" Hino will destroy it again," Syrus yelled forcing himself to stand up. " I have lost my parents, my people, my followers and my planet. You can't wish them all back with the Dragonballs! I don't even know why Gohan wants to make you proud. You mess everything up and if one person makes a choice, you kill it and do your own thing. I would never, never have a father like you!"
Syrus weakly got up and disappeared underneath into a room. Goten stood next to his father and lightly tugged on his pants. Goku looked down at his young son.
" I still love you Daddy," Goten said. " You were just trying to help Syrus, weren't you?"
" I don't think it was Syrus," Goku said. " For some reason or another."
Was Gohan really saying that, or was it Prince Syrus? And what ever happed to Hino? We'll soon find out, next time on Dragonball Z, er, Prince of Crystalline! *DBZ music end theme plays*
