Chapter 7
Lost in Nightmare World
Do you know what your worse fear is? What about your worse nightmare? It is that thing you tried to hide in deepest part of your mind the one you don't want to think about or remember but that resurface every now and then and scares the hell out of you. We all have our own fears sometime so undefined that we asked ourselves why are we even scared? Do you know what it is? And think that someone could bring it up and make it come true, make you live it again and again and again without stopping driving you mad.
He has the power, yes Freddy Krueger has it and he uses it to torture his poor victims! He had set his eyes on Vegeta and found one of his worse fears which are the suffering of his childhood the one Freeza had stolen from him.
Buried deep in his mind,
Hot breath on his neck…
The poor boy had wanted to forget these horrible nights with his enemy, how could anyone do something like that to a boy.
His claws buried deep in his skin…
Sure he wasn't innocent he had learn the way of the saiya-jin since his was in the cradle!
The continual mockeries and insults…
Does this give him the right to treat him like that?
The horrible pain when he pleasure himself in him…
He had just thrived to survive like anyone else. Kill or be killed, obey or suffer that were the rule in this ruthless galaxies where Freeza controlled. He was a rebel and the changeling had tried to broke him anyway he knew.
The constant rape…
How could he have forgotten? No he didn't every time he closed his eyes his subconscious constantly remained him of that time of his life when he was a slave of evil incarnated in the person of FREEZA!
It all started that day when Freeza came for a visit and saw him in training; he was very strong for a boy of its age very strong and made short works with every single adversary present who was ten in all.
"What an extraordinary kid?" said Zarbon and Freeza just smiled, not long after he asked the king for his son who gave him away. The night after he was given away Freeza came to see him in his quarters and his life will change forever!
He didn't understand what he wanted at first but when he finally found out he decided he will never go down without a fight! Not him no way! He was the prince of all the saiya-jin!
But it was the same thing every time he lost and he took what he wanted a part of his soul, his humanity. He left him broken but he would fight until the end. At first this pleased him to see him fight like time he was so helpless, not able to stop him taking him, oh how much he liked to see him suffer! But he got tired of it and wanted something else; he wanted to take his pride away the only thing the boy had left.
"Now listen to me my little monkey if you don't do what I ask you to I'll kill your father along with all your people" he told him one night and was please by his shocked face the boy knew he could do it and he would be powerless to stop him.
"Oh you got it all wrong my boy you can save them you just have to be a good little monkey and make me happy" he said smiling
After that night the boy submitted at his demands all of it without complaining or fighting but this didn't stopped the wicked changeling to kill them anyway, but even though he had sold himself to him he had always kept the one thing he cherished the most his pride.
Freddy had found it; he had found the prince's worse fear and intended to replay it again.
"NO! No More! It can't be! I won't let you never again! I am Vegeta the prince of all saiya-jin and I won't let you abuse me anymore it's over! OVER!!!" screamed the little boy under the changeling as he power up into a super saiya-jin and jumped to super saiya-jin 3 the strength of his ki disintegrated Freeza and the enormous energy continued to grow stronger and stronger until it enveloped the entire area and a big explosion that followed incinerate dream world.
Then Silence…
Laying in an hospital bed a man slowly opened his eyes the first thing he saw was the fluorescent lights on the ceiling and soon various odors assaulted his sense of smell, some he knew those he didn't, but he couldn't never forget the sent of the lavender haired woman. He turned his head and saw her sleeping on a chair near his bed her face buried and his arms almost like the first time he had understood that she cared for him after his accident with GR machine. He tried to stretch out his arm for her and calling her name.
"Bulma" he said feebly, the woman woke up and run to him
"Dad you are awake!" she said crying the man frown and said astonished
"Bra?!" he couldn't believe his eyes his four years old daughter was now a young woman
"Yes dad it's me! I was so scared that you will leave me to" she continued crying
"I am not going anywhere brat" he replied smiling weakly and his daughter smiles back at him
"I am going to get the doctor" she said leaving the room.
Vegeta began to scan the room with his eyes there were a lot of flowers and balloons that said 'get well soon' but the weird thing was the looked of the room it was so unfamiliar and Kami knows how many times he had spent on Earth's hospital but this one was somewhat different.
"Ah I see that you have finally decided to join us up officer Oojisama" said the doctor that came with Bra
"Where is this place? What I am doing here?" asked the patient
"This is Springwood Hospital you have been brought here after being shot five times while trying to save a family that was holding hostage by a band of hooligans months ago you are a real hero mister" said the doctor while reading his chart, the saiya-jin had found the story hard to believe but as he tried to remember what happened but hit a total blank.
"I can't remember" he said
"It's normal after such trauma" explained the doctor and left him alone with his daughter
"I was so scared that you wouldn't make it this time" said the young woman while trying to hold her tears, to change the subject the he asked
"Who sent all this?" talking about the presents, balloon and flowers inside of the room
"Oh some came from our friends your colleagues and these are from the Lowell family the one you saved!" said Bra
"Oh ok. When am I going to get out of here?"
"Same old dad you never like hospitals do you? Don't worry soon enough"
Well soon was in two weeks and Vegeta was stunned when he got outside. He was no longer in his time line anymore but in the 20th century.
"What on the world?!" he said
"What's wrong dad?"
"This is all wrong! It can't be what is this place?"
"What are you talking about dad? You have been raised in this neighborhood"
"I was" stammered Vegeta
"Yeah don't tell me you don't remember! This his your old high school" started Bra and gave him the tour of the town, but the look in his father face let her know that he didn't remember any of these places and she started to worry.
"Well I am sure that I will remember sooner or later" he tried to reassure her.
When they reach home a welcome back party was thrown in his honor, everyone seemed to know him but he couldn't remember any of them. As the time go by everything began to gain some kind of normalcy, now he knows everyone names and went back to work which he liked. Everyone in the street where he patrolled greet him as he passed by, and some memories of this life was slowly coming back to him, but they wasn't as great as he thought they could have been. He was a widow his wife Bulma had died five year ago of leukemia and now he lived with his only child Bra in a little house on Elm Street, his daughter was a kindergartener teacher they were very respected here.
Today he went to the cemetery a bouquet of flowers in his hands for his wife's grave.
"Hey Bulma I am sorry I couldn't join you this time again! Bra is alright and I am to. I sure miss you" he said while kneeling on one foot in the ground and put the flowers on the grave when he was ready to get up he saw a familiar name in one of the grave.
Son Gokou
The Bravest Fire Fighter of All Time
He read on the tombstone, while walking around and met Krillin's, Piccolo's Tien's and all the others. He looked at them one after another they all died and the same year, month and some even at the same day.
"How weird for some reason I feel like I know these people" he said to himself
"Hey dad hurry up or will be late for church!" yelled Bra being the wheel of the car not far away
"I am coming honey!" he said and left the cemetery with his head full of unanswered questions.
Three months at come and left uneventful, officer Oojisama was living peacefully with his daughter and this world full of mystery. Then the strange dreams begun, every night he dreamt about being in a futuristic time, but when he woke up he forget it all. Until one day while his round near the cemetery he saw a blond woman trespassing in a condemned house and followed her.
"Hey can you read! The sign says no trespassing" he said to the woman when she turned over him he looked at her surprised
"Marron!??"
"Who are you how do you know my name?" said the woman
"What are you doing here?" he asked
"I am a reporter and I am here to found out if that rumor was true" said the blond young woman
"What rumor?"
"Come in and see" she said and they both entered the only intact room in the room of the middle of it a man with long purple hair and beard and was repeating the same incoherent words over and over again.
"Ok what's so strange about a demented man in an old building" asked Vegeta
"Tried to reach him" she said taking out her camera, he walked toward him
"Hey you there!" but as his feet touched the circle traced on the floor a force threw him away violently
"Shit!!" he yelled
"Are you ok?" asked Marron
"Dandy!!" he said getting up painfully
"You see what I mean; I heard that he have been like this for quite sometimes"
"How can anyone live in these conditions" he said looking at the man
"I don't know the poor guy"
"What are these?" said Vegeta pointing at the writing on the walls
"I don't know, I took some picture and asked some expert to check them out but couldn't figured out their meanings but are certain that it is some kind of language"
"Yes I think it is for some reason it looks familiar"
"It does?" said the woman surprised as the man approached them, and the man in the circle stopped his chant Vegeta turned his head and looked at him in the eyes and the purple haired man turned into a teenager and said
"Dad please helps me, help us! You are our last chance find Maxine! Dad please!" but something pull him back and he vanished, Vegeta and Marron just stood there haggard
"He called you dad" she managed to say
"Yes I know this was my son Trunks, I remember everything now"
Outside Vegeta told her everything and how his family and friends had died one after another in their dream and that Freddy was responsible.
"You mean that all this is a dream unbelievable!" exclaimed the woman
"It is I don't know if you are the real Marron or just some characters in this dream"
"I know who I am and I don't believe that this can be true"
"You have seen what happened in there"
"Ok let's say that this crazy story is real, why are you the only survivor? And who's that Maxine you are supposed to find?"
"I don't know but the answers are in these writing in the walls"
"Sure now you are going to tell me you can read them"
"Of course this is saiya-jin scripture"
"Oh yeah you are that evil alien that came to Earth to destroy it then turn good" mocked the woman
"Who said anything about turning good" he said smirking and added seriously "If you don't want to help me out fine!"
"Of course I'll help you I like the fact I am the daughter of a killer androids" she said laughing
Later on they were to the public library doing research; the scriptures in the walls were the story of Freddy and everything that happened since he had returned.
"Trunks thinks that this girl Maxine knows how to defeat him" said Vegeta
"Really? How do we found her?"
"Well its says that she was actually born in that time line but escaped to ours so she must be somewhere around"
"So Maxine lives here, what's her full name"
"Maxine Delacroix" said Vegeta
"She's French? That name sound familiar"
"She was suppose to be Freddy's twentieth victims but somehow escape from him and no she isn't French her family come from the Islands"
"Yes I remembered now the Delacroix and their house disappeared without a trace it's not far away from where you live, it is situated in the inhabited part of Elm Street"
"I saw the empty place where the house stood it always gives me the willies"
"But there is nothing there"
"Let's go check it out anyway!"
They drove to Elm Street and stopped in front of where the Delacroix's house once stood.
"This place creep me out!" complained Marron
"Stays here" said Vegeta getting out of the police car he stood in front where the door was suppose to be. He stretched out his arm like to opened it and it disappeared he pulled it and he reappeared "A time warp like in the kids playroom, this must be the door from another dimension" he shouted to Marron
"Are you going?"
"I don't have a choice I don't want to spend the rest of my life lost in nightmare world!"
'Me a weaklings Earthling what a joke!' thought Vegeta and passed through the invisible portal.
To the other side Vegeta began to descend slowly like he was underwater and five minutes later reach the bottom, he looked around and started calling
"Maxine are you there!" but only the echo of his voice answered him
"I hope I am looking in the right place" he said and turned his head as he heard a noise coming behind him
"Maxine can you hear me?" he called again
"Vegeta is that you?" said a feminine voice
"Vegeta I am here help me please!" said the distressed person
"Where are you?"
"In here!"
"Where?"
"There! Go through that door" said the person and a door appeared of nowhere he opened it and found himself in his bedroom at CC and Bulma was in her nighties waiting for him.
"What took you so long?" she said seductively
"Bulma?! what are you doing here?"
"What does it look like?" she said walking toward him and began to kiss him
"Did you miss me?" she said while taking his clothes off
"You don't have no idea!"
"I am not going to let you go this time" she said kissing him and began to suck the life out of him and Vegeta started to desiccate like a raisin.
