Dragon's of Tribeta-sei
Part 1 A New Life
Chapter 19 The Reward

"BOW! PINE! NNNOOOO!" Toma's scream ecoaed off of the walls as Bow died and passed into the neather world. There was no dowbt that Both of them would end up in heaven. Goten turned his head away from Bow's body in shame as he too cried. Toma trembled as his sobs racked his body. He ignored the fact that he was a sixteen year old teenager and cried hard over his friend's deaths.

It was a while before Toma covered Bow's body with a sheet then left the room to be alone. Goten followed but went into the training room instead of following Toma. He had decided that he needs to do something to keep himself from breaking down again.

Toma went to his room where he stood staring at the wall in front of him before he punched a hole in it out of anger. He knew Pine and Bow longer then Goten did and there fore the influence of their death was greater on him then on Goten. He was seeing all kinds of visions of seeing the two of them together smiling and seeing all of the happy and fun times that they all had together. Soon Toma had cried himself to sleep. Meanwhile Goten just did some training for the remainder of the trip back home. ************************* The horizon of planet Tribeta-sei was a spactacular rainbow of colors and the sky was growing dark. The sky still had all of those moons and planets showing but it appeared that they had come home on a rainy day. But neither of the two warriors cared about the weather as they stepped out of the ship followed by the red dragon. Then with a pop Borka transformed back to his normal self. The two of them then headed inside and found that E-wan, Pademey and the elders were waiting for them. But at the very site of E-wan Toma growled and stormed over raising his fist at the same time and punched E-wan hard across the jaw sending him into a wall. Pademey yelped and went to her father's aid.

Goten grabbed Toma before he could do something else and restrained him from attacking again, Goten dug in his heals as Toma strained to get at E- wan.

"YOU SON OF A BITCH! YOU KNEW THAT PINE AND BOW WOULD DIE AND HE SENT THEM ON THAT MISSION ANYWAY! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"

"Calm thy self Mr. Beetle. We know that Pine and Bow would die on that mission but we guarantee you will meat up with them again in the future." Colonel told Toma.

Toma bit his lip, as he dare not snap at his elder. And relaxed and Goten released him.

"First I would like to congratulate both of you on the success that you have made. Not many of our people would have taken on Obeteo but you did and you shall be rewarded greatly. Now which one of you found the shape- shifter first?"

"Goten did Colonel-sama." Toma said bowing his head.

"Ah. good. No trouble I expect young one?" Colonel asked Goten referring to his emotional power.

Goten shook his head.

"Good, E-wan will take the shape shifter to Edna. But you two shall follow me and you shall get you right rewards."

Indeed, Their first reward was a private Feast between them and the elders only. The plates of flood kept on refilling themselves each time they got emptied until everyone was full. Then they were given medals for a successful mission. After that Toma was aloud to go back to his house while Goten was asked to stay.

"The other elders have just informed me that you have done well young one, and we've decided that you are old enough to have your own space ship shape shifter. You shall be given that exact same wild red shape shifter that you found. It appears that you already have a bond with it and now it is yours." Colonel smiled and aloud the dragon to step forward and allow Goten to lead him to the place where Toma and he will be sharing. Once he got there he happily shared the story with Toma who nodded.

"What are you going to call him?" Toma asked smiling at the reward that Goten received.

Goten cocked his gaze up at the sealing as his brows furrowed in though then he came up with some thing a grinned. "I think I'll call him Scorcher. What do you think?" Goten asked Scorcher and the dragon purred in reply and started to lick him again. Goten giggled. "I guess he likes it."

Yea. Lets get some sleep ok. I have to get up early so that I can prepare for Pine's and Bow's funeral."

Goten's smile vanished at the reminder but nodded none the less and followed his comrade up to bed.
