Consciousness of the Heart
Chapter13: The Unlucky Number
*************************************************************
When they landed there was silence.
Silence and blood. So much blood, the bodies laid, covered in beautiful satin sheets of it.
"Dad?" Gohan called out as he knelt down.
There was a burning to the air, the burning of flesh and hair.
"They're all gone." Sano said and stood tall, placing her hand on Gohan's shoulder.
"Radditz!" Gohan yelled, his eyes turning a glowing shade of green.
"Radditz!!!" He yelled louder.
"Quiet!" Radditz yelled and phased out behind Gohan, sending a small chop to his neck.
"You." Sano said softly. *************************************************************
"You shouldn't show such emotions." Radditz said, as he stood over the weeping girl.
"When you're tough, they leave you alone." He said again.
"Will you teach me?" The girl asked between hiccups.
Radditz nodded stiffly and let out a small, very rare smile.
"Thank you." She whispered as she tried her best to clear her face off all her tears. *************************************************************
"So you got your wish." Sano said, smiling.
"Yes." Radditz said.
"I'm glad." She said softly.
"You could live." He offered.
"You have your world, and I have mine." Sano said softly.
"Back then..." He started.
"Children live in a dream, living in the real world is a part of growing up." Sano said sadly.
"This life changed you." Radditz said.
"I thought you wanted me to be tough." Sano said.
"Tough, but to not turn your back away." Radditz said and slowly raised his hand.
"One question." Sano started.
"Yes?" Radditz asked, lowering his hand.
"Was it all worth it, for the family that betrayed you, you risk your soul. Using her body, you will lose your soul." Sano assured.
"You know it's what I have to do." Radditz said and again raised his hand.
"I'm sorry then." Sano said and closed her brown eyes. *************************************************************
'You can't shoot her!' Pepper commanded, regaining consciousness.
'I demand you let me go!' She shouted again. *************************************************************
The sayain heart, one of the most ignored organs of emotion. To be one, and to be at peace, one must fulfill dreams, grasp realities. And allow their heart to lead the way. *************************************************************
Sano opened her eyes and looked down at the young girl.
"I'm so sorry." Pepper whispered as tears fell out of her eyes.
"I never wanted anything like this to happen, ever." She said and wound herself up into a ball.
"His soul is free now, you did nothing wrong." Sano assured.
"I let him in, I didn't try to stop him until it was too late. And I was too weak. No they're all dead." Pepper cried.
"It's not over yet." Sano said lightly. *************************************************************
"This is a complete mess!" Yemma yelled.
"It's not my fault!" Sano argued.
"I sent you all there to capture one sayain, and now three people are dead!" Yemma yelled.
"I had nothing to do with it!" Sano yelled.
"Well you seemed to have had a very large connection with him." Yemma yelled, slamming his fists down.
"Ugh!" Sano cried and threw her arms up.
"What do you expect me to do with them, huh?" He asked.
"Well, first of all, you will return my grand daughter back to life." Baba ordered.
"Then send Goku to heaven for the time being so we can wish him back with the Dragon Balls." She continued.
"What am I supposed to do about the still missing Sayain?" Yemma asked.
"Close the file." Sano said.
Baba turned her head sharply towards her grand daughter.
"And leave him out there?" Yemma asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Yes." Sano said.
Yemma sighed.
"You are a foolish child." Baba said, shaking her head.
"Do as she said." Baba said finally, breaking the silence.
"Done." Yemma said.
"And what about Vegeta, I can't exactly send him back?" Yemma asked.
"Might I suggest that Vegeta would be in hell anywhere with Goku, besides there are a few people on earth that might be upset if he was un- reachable." Baba said, cracking a small smile.
Yemma nodded and smiled as well.
"It is done." He said and closed up all files. *************************************************************
"Why the hell did I get stuck with you Kakkarot?" Came Vegeta's voice from heaven.
"But 'Geta..." Started Goku's voice. *************************************************************
"I didn't expect you back for a while." Vell said.
"It was a short vacation." Pepper said and shrugged.
"Your rat never bit me, once. I think he's broken." Vell joked.
"Well, I'll have to fix him." Pepper said and smiled up at her dark-haired friend.
"Someday I'll tell you." She said. *************************************************************
"You never had it." Sano said.
"Had what?" Radditz asked.
"The heart to do it, did you?" She asked.
Radditz just shook his head.
"I never needed a heart." He said stubbornly.
"No, you had one all along." Sano said softly. *************************************************************
The End!!!!!!
Sorry about the long waiting period...but you have no idea how sick I've been!!! Please Review!
