A-Chan: So... Yea, that took long. I'll admit it. But I hope it was worth the wait. Man am I getting lazy on these updates. The encouragement was great though, thanks. I hope you guys are enjoying, one more chapter to go.... And then.. we say farewell. *tear* Too bad... Well, I hope the story has been good. I know, I know, it's depressing. But, I warned you ahead of time that it was a drama, sooooo.... It's not my fault if it makes you depressed. Okay so it is.... All right, I'm blabbing... I'll let you read the chap now.

----------------------------------------------------

I walked down the hall slowly, as If I was heading toward my demise. Close enough though, I knew what was coming. The walls of the hall seemed to close in on me, and I could hardly breath. My hand rested on the door handle for several moments before I found the strength to turn it, and step inside.

I looked to the bed to see my love, but saw nothing. He was not there. My heart started racing in fear that he had gone to the other world without me being able to say goodbye. It could not have happened. I refused to believe it. But I still fell to my knees in shock. Still felt the sadness build up in my chest and throat, sending tears to my eyes. But then I felt a familiar touch.

His hand rested on my shoulder. I turned around quickly to take him into my arms as tears fell from my eyes.

" Don't cry Vegeta, I am still here. Now let's go."

I calmed down and looked up at him. "Go where?"

" To the pond, please. I would like to go there one last time. And I have something to show you."

" Kakarot, you don't have the strength... you should stay there in your bed.. It's safer."

" No, Vegeta. I know my strength, and I can fly to the pond easily."

I just didn't want him to waste his strength then. I wanted him to last as long as possible. To just stay around with me...

" Alright Kakarot, whatever you want." I decided.

Kakarot took my hand and we flew out the window. Boy would the doctors have been mad if they found out!

" Kakarot, are you sure you will be okay?"

" I will be fine Vegeta... For a little while, at least."

" Good..." I say, though it would have been more satisfying to hear him say forever.

We land at the pond and Kakarot stands facing me. He places his hands on my shoulder, to look at me, or to just help him stand. He looks into my eyes.

" What did you have to show me?" I asked.

" Come with me." He said.

We walked down the river until we came to a very shallow and rocky part of it.

" Kakarot, I'm not understanding what you are doing..."

" Look..." He said as he pointed toward the river.

" I don't see anything..." I said, thinking maybe he was delirious.

" Look carefully, by that rock..."

I looked as closely as I could until I finally came into focus on two tails, tied together.

" You see now?" He asks.

" Yes, I do.. It's our tails."

" Yea.. The symbol of our love for each other just stopped."

" Kakarot..." I asked with a questioning look.

" But even so.. Even if the 'symbol' of our love has run into the bumpy part, it's still together, and it still represents something that is dear to us. Even if the 'symbol' of our love has stopped, our real love for each other will never. It will go on forever.. in the river deep in here..." He said and pointed to my heart.

Tears filled my eyes and trailed down my cheeks.

" Our love is eternal, Vegeta. I will never stop loving you, and maybe I will see you again soon. But I wish I could stay in your arms.. Forever. But Vegeta, I don't want you to worry about me. I will be okay. I want you to go on with your life. Don't ever change from how you are now Vegeta. You have made me a happy man."

I turned my head down as I nearly cried hysterical.

" Stay exactly how you are. You are perfect. I even love it when you throw your tantrums, and when you turn your nose in the air. You make me laugh, cry, smile... everything. You have made my life so much better just by being in it. Just promise me you'll never change.. And promise me you'll smile more, and you'll hold your head high no matter how hard things get.. and you'll look forward to every day, because you never know when the next won't come for you.. And Vegeta, save me a dream."

He smiled for me, though I did not see it because my eyes were filled with tears. I heard all of his words though, but I did not understand his last request.

" Save you a dream?" I asked

" You'll understand soon enough." He said with another smile.

" Okay." I trusted.

" Oh, and one more request... Take good care of what you have inside you.." He said.

I simply assumed he was talking about morals or something. But his hand rested on my lower abdomen.

" Kakarot?" I asked in a high pitched voice, knowing what he was talking about suddenly.

" Yes." He said.

He left a gift behind for me...
