An- Wow...the last update...it's amazing isn't it? I mean, this was the chapter
I was at when this story got deleted last time. I'm so happy that it will
finally be up. And I really can't believe that this story has gotten over
100 reviews...I mean it did last time, but I just didn't think it would for
the second time around. I just can't believe it...I really can't. Anyway, I'd
also like to point out that the actual last chapter, chapter 20 is also up,
and it's kinda like the epilogue. Anyway, I'll let you get on with the
chapters! Enjoy!
Chapter 19
"We did it!" Kakkrot cried triumphantly, turning to stare at his fellow warriors with wide and happy eyes.
Suddenly, the three goddesses uttered short-lived gasps and their eyes rolled back in their heads. They all tumbled forward to the ground, and as they fell, they slowly changed back from the three Sayijin goddesses to their mortal forms. By the time each of their respected mates caught them, they were once again Chichi, Bulma and 18.
"Hurry!" Krillin cried urgently, "We have to get them to the hospital wing!"
. . . . . .
A few days later
Chichi opened her eyes slowly, feeling a bit of pain as the bright light invaded her sight. It took a moment until she could even tell where she was. She found herself lying in a small, hard bed in the hospital wing. On two beds on either side of her, lay Bulma and 18, both still asleep.
Slowly, she pushed herself up on to her hunches and looked around in confusion. ' What happened?'
Slowly, the last memories she had locked in her mind came to her. They were hazing of course, but the dull outline was there. The goddesses, Fire...dying and then killing Frezia.
Beside her, Bulma and 18 started to stir restlessly. Their eyes fluttered open and the same confusion Chichi had experienced shone in them.
"What-"Bulma started, but a look of realization crossed her face and she sat up abruptly, "Please, was that all a dream?"
Chichi opened up her mouth to answer, but a familiar voice spoke from behind them.
"It wasn't"
The three girls turned towards the doorway to find Kakkrot and Krillin standing in the doorway. Chichi and 18 beamed up at their mates.
"Good, you're all awake," Kakkrot smiled, looking at Chichi with love shining in his eyes, "Vegeta told us to get you...even though you were asleep (Vegeta "I don't give a damn, wake them up anyway!"). Come on!"
Without asking any questions, the three girls rose from their beds, sent quizzical looks at each other and followed the two Sayijins out of the room.
"Where are we going Kakkrot?" Chichi asked her mate, moving to walk beside him.
"Vegeta is making an announcement," Kakkrot told them, "for he is king now (shocked faces from all three girls)...his father was killed in the attack from Frezia. This is his first ruling as the planet's king, and he thought you all should hear this first hand,"
Finally, the five of them reached where Vegeta stood, on a high balcony that over looked all of the land. Millions of people, Sayijin and slave alike, waited down below for what ever their new king had to say.
"People of Vegeta-Sei," Vegeta called out loud and clearly, below, everyone went silent, "I, your new king, have something important to declare. For many years, we have been purging other, defenseless planets and taking their inhabitants as our own slaves," he paused for a moment, " and now I'm going to change that. I, king Vegeta, pass law that all slaves, no matter which race, are free!" there was a collective gasp from all except Kakkrot and Krillin who knew all about this, "All slaves have the choices of leaving to go to their home planets or living here on Vegeta- Sei, equal to all and ever Sayijin,"
There was stunned silence from below, but after a few silent minutes, there was scattered applause...and that applause grew within minutes.
Chichi, Bulma and 18 all looked at each other in stunned silence. Was it...possible? After eleven years of nothing but slavery, was it actually possible for them to be free?
All at once, they all smiled, laughed and started to hug each other while tears of joy ran down their faces.
"I don't...I don't believe it..." Chichi's voice trailed off as she backed a step backwards from the others.
"Believe it Chichi," Kakkrot whispered in her ear as he took her into his arms, "You're free...you're free, and now we're free to be together..."
With tears of joy running down her face, Chichi turned around to face Kakkrot and kissed him.
Vegeta had now just walked in from the balcony, and smirked when he saw how the girls were reacting. He couldn't help but feel a little pleased.
Vegeta pulled Bulma aside as she was talking excitedly with 18.
"Thank you Vegeta!" Bulma cried, tears running down her cheeks, " Thank you so much!"
"Listen woman," Vegeta told her softly, "now that I am king...I'll need a queen..."
Bulma's mouth fell open in shock and she just couldn't find any words... "My...oh Kami Vegeta...me?"
"I would take no other," Vegeta replied, wrapping his arms around her and kissing her softly.
"What does it feel like?" Krillin asked 18 with smile.
"Like I'm going to explode," 18 replied, kissing him.
"So I guess you'll want to return to Earth...try to find your family..." Krillin asked her with down turned eyes, as they broke apart.
"No," 18 sighed, "I might get back to Earth someday, but right now my place is here...with you,"
Krillin, along with all the rest, smiled and marveled at their newfound freedom.
. . . . . .
Deep down within the hollows of the planet, inside the mystical cave, the light that had started over a week ago dimmed.
Suddenly the small glowing jewel exploded in to a million shardnels of red specks. The golden red dust floated to the rocky ground and wherever the pieces touched, a small blue flower appeared.
Soon, the whole cave was over run with the beautiful blue flowers.
You see, these were the ancient flowers of hope. On Vegeta-sei, they had died out long ago, but now they would bloom all over the planet, for there was once again hope; hope for tomorrow.
