The Unwanted Saiyan

Part Six

"Woman, what are you waiting for? Finish him now!" Vegeta yelled.

Chi-Chi ignored Vegeta as she lowered the sword and dropped to her knees besides Kakarot. "I'm not going to kill my husband," Chi-Chi said. "I'm going to get him back."

Vegeta blinked. 'She can't be thinking what I think she will do.'

Vegeta sat on the floor of the gravity room. He looked at Chi-Chi who was standing confused. "Come on and let me show you. I don't have all day."

Chi-Chi knelt beside Vegeta. "What do I do?"

Vegeta grabbed Chi-Chi's right hand. "You have to cut along the lifelines of your hand and his hand. If you were to use your right hand, you will have to cut Kakarot's left hand." He put both their hands together. "You see? Your lifeline and Kakarot's lifeline will joined together uniting both your souls."

Chi-Chi looked at her hand joined with Vegeta's and nodded. "All right. What else?"

"Then your raise your ki." He looked at her skeptically. "Can you even do that?"

"I most certainly can!" Chi-Chi yelled. "My strength might not equal Goku's, our sons or his friends but I can raise my energy levels some!"

Vegeta rolled his eyes. "Whatever. After you raise what little ki you have, you put your soul in Kakarot's. Your body will be suspended until help Kakarot…if you can."

Chi-Chi ignored the remark. "How do I put my soul with Goku's?"

"Simple. With a kiss." He then released Chi-Chi's hand. "Now, I've told you what you can do. I wouldn't advise it. You're not a Saiyan so the chances you are Kakarot's true mate are next to nil."

Chi-Chi rose. She wanted to yell at Vegeta for the insult but didn't. He did show her the bonding test so she should be grateful. "Thank you for showing me this test. It's a risk but I'll use it if necessary. It may be my only way for saving Goku."

Vegeta knew then Chi-Chi was going to do it. "Woman, don't be foolish! You better not be doing what I think you're going to do," Vegeta said as he moved forward slowly due to his injured body.

Chi-Chi raised her ki as high as she could. She took Yajirobe's sword and picked up Kakarot's left hand. She cut along the lifeline of his hand with blood slowly dripping out.

"Woman, Chi-Chi, don't do it! You're only going to hurt yourself!" Vegeta yelled.

Chi-Chi didn't listen as she cut along the lifeline of her right hand until she saw blood oozing out. "I have to do this. This is the only way I can get Goku back and I refuse to kill him!" Chi-Chi raised her ki as high as she could.

"You're a fool to be doing this!" Vegeta said.

"You're the one that showed me this test, so who's the bigger fool?" Chi-Chi questioned and focused all her concentration on her ki and her husband.

A faint blue glow surrounded Chi-Chi. She took Kakarot's left hand and united it with her right hand, joining their lifelines together. The blue glow surrounding Chi-Chi was now surrounding Kakarot. Chi-Chi then leaned forward and kissed him. A minute later, the blue aura continued to surround Chi-Chi and Kakarot while they were frozen in place.

Vegeta shook his head. "She's a fool."

Chi-Chi opened her eyes to find herself on green grass. She looked around to see it was a sunny day. She wasn't home but the area did look familiar. Chi-Chi looked around and saw a lake ahead of here and a little girl picking flowers. Chi-Chi blinked and looked again. The girl looked a lot like her as a kid.

"Hey, Chi-Chi, it's me Goku!"

Chi-Chi turned and saw Goku as a little boy jumped out of an apple tree. He ran to Chi-Chi.

"Oh, my, Goku. I can't believe you came all this way just for me," the little girl said.

"What are you talking about?" kid Goku asked obviously clueless.

"I picked flowers for the wedding see?" She hands Goku the flowers and blushes. "Oh, I didn't think this day would ever come. Did you?"

"Sure. Tomorrow always comes," Goku replied once again clueless to the situation.

"Oh, you're such a joker," Chi-Chi said and smacked Goku sending him into a tree.

Goku slammed hard into the tree. He rubbed his head and tail. "Ow! You made me hurt my head and my tail."

Chi-Chi blushed in embarrassment. "Oh, I've got to be more ladylike."

"That's okay," Goku said cheerfully and dug into his shirt. "You want an apple?"

"Oh, for me?"

"Sure. I have plenty," Goku said and handed Chi-Chi an apple. Chi-Chi took a small bite while Goku took a large bite.

Chi-Chi remembered that day. It was the second time he came to see her. Of course he was looking for his dragon ball then and not marry her.

The scene around her changed. She was in a hospital room. Chi-Chi saw herself holding a newborn baby in her arms. Goku was sitting beside her looking down at the two. "Oh, isn't he beautiful, Goku? My precious Goku. Look at what we created, Goku."

Goku looked down at his wife and son proudly. "Yes, he is. He's so small though."

Chi-Chi laughed. "He's a baby, silly. Wanna hold him?"

"Sure."

Chi-Chi gently handed the baby to Goku. He looked down at the little boy. "My son." The baby opened his eyes and blinked at Goku curiously. "He has my eyes, Chi-Chi."

"I bet he has your stomach too," Chi-Chi said tiredly.

Goku just looked at the little boy in aw. "Wow. I have a son."

The scene around Chi-Chi changed again. This time she was in her home. She saw Goku holding Gohan's hand as he walked with him around the sofa. Gohan was nearly ten months old at the time.

"Here. I'm gonna show you how to walk, Gohan."

Gohan looked up at his father and laughed as he walked forward holding his Dad's hands while Goku walked backwards. "I'm gonna let go, Gohan, and I want you to take a step forward on your own."

Goku had been helping Gohan walked for nearly a month now. Gohan was a fast learner. At five and a half months, Gohan could sit up on his own. At six and a half months, Gohan was crawling. At eight and a half months, Gohan was leaning on tables and sofas and anything he could get his hand on to walk, but he had yet to walk on his own.

Gohan's quick grasp on sitting up and crawling came as a surprise to both parents, especially Chi-Chi. She was more than amazed her child was strong enough to do these things on his own. But then thinking who she married, Chi-Chi began to understand. Goku was no ordinary man so his children wouldn't be either.

At nearly ten months, Goku thought Gohan to be ready. "Okay, Gohan. I'm going to let go." Goku released his hands on Gohan. Gohan stood on his own. Goku tried this many times before but this is the first time Gohan didn't fall down. Goku went into the kitchen and grabbed Chi-Chi's hands and pulled her in the living room. "Chi-Chi, you have to see this."

"Oh, my. Gohan's standing on his own," Chi-Chi said surprised.

"I know. Come on, Gohan," Goku said holding a hand out. "Walk to Mommy and Daddy." Goku took a step forward. "Come on, Chi-Chi."

Chi-Chi took a step forward and held a hand out. "Come on, honey. Walk to Mommy."

Gohan saw his parents reaching out to him and took a step forward, then another and then another until he reached his parents. Goku picked up Gohan and swung him air. Gohan laughed as he was suddenly lifted into the air.

"You did it!" Chi-Chi cried happily. "Gohan walked!"

The scene changed again and she was surrounded by another memory. "This must be Goku's memories."

"Yes, it is. It's what kept him from becoming his true self for so long. When Goku thought about losing it he would summoned up happy memories of his family, but that only helped until I finally took over. I'd have to thank Bulma for that. If she didn't tell me about the birth control pills, I'm not sure if I would ever snap. It was your betrayal that pushed me over the edge."

Chi-Chi jumped and turned back as she saw a man looking like her husband approach her. He wasn't wearing his normal clothes but Saiyan armor and he had a tail around his waist.

"Kakarot."

"How did you get in here? In my mind?" Kakarot questioned and then discovered the truth. "Vegeta told you about the bond test."

"Yes, he did."

"You made it this far without going made through all the memories and the transfer of your soul into my body. You are my true mate." He stepped toward her while Chi-Chi stepped back. "You can't escape me. Goku is gone. Only I, Kakarot is around. And if you don't accept that, then I will make you accept it."

Before Kakarot could grab Chi-Chi, Chi-Chi felt herself being lifted into familiar arms. She opened her eyes and saw she was in Goku's arms.

"Goku?"

They floated for few moments before Goku landed. "What are you doing here? How did you get here?"

"I had to get you back. Kakarot is a menace. He's hurt Gohan…"

"I know," Goku said. "I've seen everything and I couldn't do anything about it."

"You can defeat him, right?"

Kakarot laughed. "If you think Goku can defeat me, then you're wrong. I'm the one who defeated you, Goku."

Goku growled as he pushed Chi-Chi behind him. "No!" Goku said defiantly. "This ends now. I won't let you hurt my wife, son or friends anymore!"

Kakarot got in a fighting stance. "This time I will finish you for good, and once I defeat you, I will merge with you and take full control of this body."

"Full control? What's he's talking about, Goku?" Chi-Chi asked.

"Neither of us can't live without the other. We need each other to live on because we are part of each other. When I defeat the Goku side for good, we will become one and I will take full control," Kakarot explained.

"But if Goku wins, then he will have full control of his body again," Chi-Chi said.

Kakarot scoffed. "He won't win."

****

Gohan awakened first. His head was still throbbing from the hit Kakarot gave him. He saw Vegeta kneeling over his parents. He noticed a strange blue glow around his parents. What was going on? Gohan's legs were still sore but he was able to walk.

He walked over to Vegeta and collapsed. "What's wrong with my parents?"

"Your mother is performing the bond test. She went in Kakarot's mind to get Kakarot, er, uh, Goku back. Get those senzu beans and give everyone one. We will need our strength in case your mother fails and Kakarot's resurfaces," Vegeta explained.

Gohan walked over to Yajirobe and got the senzu beans. He gave him one and then took one himself. He put a bean in everyone's mouths who were unconscious and tossed Vegeta's his.

Krillin looked around. Everyone was waking up recovering from the fight. "What happened?"

"Kakarot beat you up," Vegeta growled.

"We got that much," Yamcha said. "Is it over?" He approached Vegeta and saw Goku and Chi-Chi locked in a kiss, hands joined together and a blue glow surrounding them. "What's going on?"

"Mom is performing some bonding test to get Dad back," Gohan said and continued to watch his parents. "How long can they stay still like that?"

"Until it's over," Vegeta said.

****

Chi-Chi's eyes couldn't keep up with the fighting. They were so fast moving from one side to the other, especially when they both turned into Super Saiyans. Chi-Chi didn't know who was winning but she was hoping it was Goku.

The fight was at first a stalemate. With each kick, Kamehameha Wave and punch Goku delivered to Kakarot, Kakarot delivered and equally powerful kick, punch or ki blast to Goku. At one point, Kakarot was winning and then it looked as if Goku will win but as the fight continued on, Kakarot was gaining the advantage. Both were becoming weary with bruises and cuts to the body. With both being equal in strength, the only way to win was using their fighting capabilities and strategies. As Goku blocked, Kakarot would punch or kick until Kakarot easily maneuvered Goku into a full nelson. Goku struggled to break free but Kakarot tightened his hold on Goku.

"Give up and merge with me, Goku."

"No. Never!"

"Your strength is waning. I am superior to you," Kakarot said.

"I'll never give up. You won't catch me off guard again."

"It'll be much easier," Kakarot began. "I'll take good care of Chi-Chi for you if you do. She can put up a fight but I can get her to submit like I did last night. You saw that, didn't you?"

"I won't let you hurt Chi-Chi anymore," Goku growled.

"I wasn't hurting her. I was giving her what she wanted. In fact once I merge with you I'm going to have my way with her forever. Imagine me tying a woman like her up and really having my way with her. Imagine the possibilities. Then there's the boy. He doesn't show much respect for me but he will submit, even if I have to beat him to a pulp."

Something snapped in Goku. The fact that his evil counterpart was going to continue abusing his wife and his son, infuriated Goku. He wasn't going to allow it to happen. An unknown aura of energy emerged from Goku. Kakarot looked in awe as Goku stood there with a red aura surrounding him.

"I won't allow you to hurt my family anymore!" Goku pulled his hands back to perform the Kamehameha Wave. "Ka…me…ha…"

Kakarot saw Goku getting ready to perform the Kamehameha Wave and did it himself. "If you have enough strength to perform that move again, so do I, but it's going to end in the same way. Ka…me…ha…"

"Me…ha!" Kakarot fired on Goku but he vanished. "What?" He turned around and saw Goku firing the Kamehameha Wave on him.

The huge blast absorbed Kakarot. Drained of his energy, Kakarot plummeted to the ground. Goku used the Kaio Ken attack to fly down and kicked Kakarot in the back sending him in the air and flew ahead of Kakarot and punched him. Goku watched as Kakarot crashed to the ground.

Chi-Chi watched Goku landed. Kakarot lied on his stomach injured and beaten in battle. She approached both me. "Is he out?" Chi-Chi asked.

"Stay back," Goku warned. Chi-Chi stepped away like Goku told her wondering why Goku was kneeling beside Kakarot.

Chi-Chi watched as their bodies glowed and the two joined to become one force. The blinding light forced Chi-Chi to close her eyes. She opened them when the light faded and saw only one stood. Chi-Chi wasn't sure if her husband was standing before her or not. The body looked like Goku's but there was that tail that was wrapped around his waist. He looked in her direction.

"Who are you?" Chi-Chi asked.

He walked to Chi-Chi smiling. "It's me, Chi-Chi. Goku. I'm back!"

Chi-Chi looked in his eyes and saw happy innocence. She knew then her husband won. "Oh, Goku!" Chi-Chi cried throwing her arms around Goku. "I thought I lost you forever."

"Yeah, but I'm all right now."

Chi-Chi rubbed Goku's back soothingly and felt his tail. "Goku, what about your tail? Kakarot had that but not you."

"I know, but this is how I'm suppose to be. I am a Saiyan and while my physical self don't have a tail anymore, my inner being still has a tail. I am a full bloodied Saiyan. I've conquered the darker side of me so he shouldn't appear again. I can keep control of him now."

"Are you sure?" Chi-Chi asked worried.

"Yeah, I'm sure."

"I hope so," Chi-Chi said and hugged him again.

Outside their bodies, everyone watched on. The glow around Goku and Chi-Chi faded. Chi-Chi opened her eyes and pulled herself from Goku. She looked at her hand and saw that it was fully healed. Goku's left hand was healed as well. It didn't look as if it had been cut. Goku opened his eyes and sat up.

"Ow!" He touched the back of his head. "My head and my ribs," he said touching his left ribs. "Did you guys really have to pound me like that?"

Gohan looked at Goku. He looked into his father's eyes and didn't see the anger and darkness he saw the past few days. He knew then his lighthearted, carefree father was back. "Dad, you're back!" Gohan said and hugged his father.

Krillin rubbed the back of his head and laughed. "It sounds like Goku's back to himself."

Goku looked up at his friends. "I'm sorry I hurt you guys. I wasn't myself, but I'm all right now."

"As long as you don't lose yourself again. I don't want to tangle with you upset again," Yamcha said.

"Now that this nonsense is over with, I assume I won't have to be bothered again in your pathetic lives. I've seen you people enough more than I want to in a lifetime." Vegeta said and took off.

After some talking the others made their departure leaving the family alone. Chi-Chi looked back at Goku. "Come on. Let's fix those wounds." Chi-Chi put one of Goku's arms around her and helped him up.

"I'm glad you're back, Dad." Gohan told his father once inside the house. "Are you really okay now? Because I don't want to see you like that again."

Chi-Chi walked Goku to the sofa. She pulled off his shirt and went to get some bandages and antiseptic to clean his wounds. He had a few bruises and cuts from the fight with everyone.

"I'm fine now, son. I'm sorry for what I did to you and your mother. I didn't mean it. I wasn't myself, but don't worry, I've conquered that side of me," Goku explained.

Chi-Chi returned and began fixing Goku up. He noticed Chi-Chi was quiet while Gohan chattered away about how glad his father was back and they could get to training again. Wasn't she happy that he was back or was something else going on in her mind? As Chi-Chi applied antiseptic on Goku's bruised body, Goku lift Chi-Chi's face to his with two fingers, making her stop.

He had an apologetic look on his face. "I'm very sorry for what I did to you, Chi-Chi."

Chi-Chi bit her lip, lowered her eyes and focused on patching Goku up. "It's okay. You weren't yourself. It's over, so don't worry about it." Chi-Chi then bandaged Goku's chest.

But Goku was worried. Chi-Chi was more quiet than usual the rest of the day. She kept up a cheery façade, but Goku saw right through it. Gohan was oblivious to his mother's behavior. Goku stayed home for the next few days to recover from his injuries. Gohan stayed home to, to keep his Dad company. The little boy was happy his father was back to his normal self.

When they slept, Chi-Chi slept with her back turned away from Goku. One night was cool and it looked like Chi-Chi was shivering so Goku moved closer to keep her warm. Chi-Chi nearly jumped out of bed, feeling Goku so close to her. She recovered saying she was fine but Goku didn't believe it. When Goku went back to training, Goku decided to surprise Chi-Chi in the middle of the day and ask for a snack. He went home by Instant Transmission, surprising Chi-Chi. From the look of her eyes, Chi-Chi looked more scared than startled.

Goku began to wonder if Chi-Chi ever gotten over and forgiven him when his evil counterpart came out. His suspicions were confirmed nearly two months after Goku returned to normal. Goku was already in bed. He was watching Chi-Chi sitting at the dresser brushing her hair. He took her in beauty from her long dark hair, to how tone her body was and becoming increasingly aware that he wanted to be with her. It had been nearly two months since they engaged in the activity. Goku wanted to give Chi-Chi time to adjust to him being back again after what Kakarot did to her and also there was the training where he was tired from fighting to do nothing more from eating and sleeping.

Chi-Chi set the brush down and saw Goku looking at her with lustful eyes. "W-why are you looking at me like that?" she asked nervous.

Goku just smiled. "Why not? Come here." Chi-Chi looked a little reluctant. "Please," he added.

Chi-Chi swallowed and sat beside him. Goku ran a hand up and down Chi-Chi's right arm, trying to ease her. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

Goku turned Chi-Chi to face him. "I know I shouldn't have hurt you or our son, but I lost my mind for a while, but I'm trying hard for you to forgive me."

"Goku…"

Goku didn't let Chi-Chi finish. "I let you and Gohan down. I couldn't protect my family and what's worst is that I couldn't protect my family from myself."

"Goku…"

"I've failed you, Chi-Chi."

"What do you mean?" Chi-Chi asked.

"I swore to myself that I will always protect you and Gohan and I didn't. I couldn't even protect you two from me." He joined his hand with hers and Chi-Chi flinched. "I still scare you, don't I?"

Chi-Chi looked away. "I know you're back, Goku. It's just that the man who forced himself on me and almost hit me and my son looked so much like you. He was you, just not the man I know. I don't know. I was so focused on getting you back that I pushed what happened to me and to Gohan in the back of my mind, and when I did get you back, all that Kakarot did to me finally hit me full on. It's gonna take me a little while longer than expected to adjust and realize that you're back to your normal self. Don't worry. I'll be fine."

"Maybe…maybe until you feel comfortable with me being here again I should stay away from you," Goku suggested.

Chi-Chi looked at Goku surprised. "Goku?"

"I can't take it to see you scared and know I'm the caused of it. I can't comfort you and tell you it's gonna be okay." He got out of bed and put his clothes on. "I won't be far. I'll be at my grandpa's home. I'll stay until you're ready for me to come back."

Chi-Chi just watched Goku walk out the door. A part of her wanted to tell him to stop, go into his arms and tell him not to leave while another part of her thought it was best that he did leave. She wasn't comfortable with him now. Every now and then she would think what happened that night he was on her, talking to her wickedly, making her submit to him, making her body respond when she didn't want it, it made her shudder in fear. That man was gone now but the memories were still fresh in her mind. She was so confused on what to do, but one thing was certain. Goku was right. She was still intimidated and in fear of him over what happened, but she still loved him and knew it was up to her to forgive and accept Goku again.

To Be Continued

AN: I know a lot of people are surprised by this. Hee. Hee. Thought it was gonna be a straight out happy ending didn't you?

V son saiyan: You can only hope Goku is normal again. Hee. Hee. Nah, he's back.

Danichan667: There's a little more violence but it's really the lemon scenes that's preventing me from posting the R-rated version. Hee. Hee. Yeah, Chi-Chi's not suffering that much. Oh, please no spoilers on DBGT. I haven't seen it yet. Heh. Heh. You like good guys gone bad and guys there were already evil. That's because you have a wicked mind. Hee. Hee. I think a lot of girls like Mirai Trunks more than any other male. He is cute for an anime character and I like him a lot better than the other Trunks. Yep. I update this on Friday's too.

ChiChi5: I guess you're happy you got Goku back, but sad he left.

Moon Girl: I can't tell you. You have to read. Hee. Hee.

Brios201: Thanks.

FtTrunkslover: Yay! Fanfic award. Someone Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!

SSJ Kain: Yep. I love cliffhangers. I'm loving the ones on Dragonball. It makes me so excited for the next one.

Lady Athena: Well, you know Saiyans have a lot of energy. Remember when Goku was training with Krillin and they were doing that milk run and Krillin was tired but Goku kept going and going a lot longer before he got tired. This is the same person who swam from one side of the world to the other for the next tournament. I'm still amazed he did that. Gohan's courage was slowly building up. He knew something happened between his Mom and Dad that wasn't good and with what Vegeta told him, Gohan knew there was no other way to stop Kakarot but fight his Dad. I'd like to try to go about things another way.

Jaina: Yeah, it's poor Goku and ChiChi again since Goku left.

DBZ Chick: Be honest. You don't want me to update.

Gogirl: Now you know I can't make the ending that easy. What fun is that? No, everyone understands, but makes sure to never get on Goku's bad side. Oh, yeah! The new DB eps ROCK! I love the cliffhangers at the end! I can't wait to see the ones when he's an adult too. Heh. Heh. I put everything on hold to watch it. I baby-sit my niece on Mondays and she's three. I make sure everything is stopped for DBZ and DB. She watches but she doesn't understand what's going on. Yep, I watch the Bardock movie and got a little emotional at the end because the music they played at the end was the same music they played when Goku said he wasn't coming back at the end of the Cell Saga and you know I bawled like a pathetic person because Goku died and he wasn't coming back. I'm going to get a little emotional in the Trunks movie because everyone died.

Ultimate Seto Fan: Thanks! She couldn't kill him. She loves him.

Oninu: Let's be realistic here. Gohan was a sheltered child. He was forced into fighting because of the Saiyans coming and he never fought in his life. He was only five years old when he got in his first fight so yeah he would be scared. Through time Gohan has stepped up to the plate when his family and friends were in danger. He attacked Frieza when he was about to kill off Piccolo. You saw how he was ready to fight the Spice Boys after learning they changed his mother with the black water mist. When he was in the Time Chamber, he pushed his Dad to be tougher on him to become a Super Saiyan. Gohan knew his mother was being hurt by his Dad, he knew his Dad wasn't himself and with Vegeta words to him, Gohan knew he had to fight Kakarot to get his Dad back.

Chuquita: Close about the mental battle. Oh, you love cliffhangers. Admit it.

Leigh: Well, yeah G/K still cares for ChiChi. No matter how far he would go, he wouldn't kill her.

Nacobe: I wish I could've been one. Then I would've had a lot of money and I could be in the studio when the voice actors do their work. Hee.Hee.

Sadako: Confusing to kill or not to kill? Hee. Hee. I'm such a twisted, wicked person.
