chibibaka- Hihi! This ep will reveal shocking shit, I promise!
SilverWolfe3636 - I'm a fangirl, so I'll gush about Yugi as much as I want. But for now, I'll cut back. You like WWE, too? Jeez, you and Dan would get along. Yeah, the wreslters get on my nerves, but Dan doesn't PMS (often.
Veglma - They want the dragonballs for the same reason all other random villains want them: POWER!
DH88 - Not my fault it took two weeks. Well, sort of. FF.N has me under probation now.
Jessiejames - I'm moving YHPS to another site. I've finished most of it, and didn't want to change the format I felt most comfortable with. I mean, it'd be hard to put all those extravagent descriptions, ne?
Cat-Star4 - Wow, you like this more?! Aw, garsh! Make your own desicion on who to feel for in a couple of eps, okay?
Richard0 - Wrong on both counts, Richard! Thanks for trying, though. Shows you actually care!
Davifflaelan - ?o?.

Una: (bangs head on keyboard) This - chapter - really - sucks!
Bardock: Because there's no action?
Una: Because its so cheesy!! What was I thinking when I created Cyra?
Yami: Let's see, you were in your early teens, no real experience with creative writing, highly under-developed as an author, exposed to FUNimation more than anything else.
Yugi: (tries to stop Una) It can't be all that bad.
Una: I'm pulling one of the oldest cliches out of the fic book!
Bardock: "Fic... book..." Okay... School is getting to her, and its only the first week!


Episode 6
Gohan Reveals All; Cyra's True Identity!!
Son Chichi arrived at the hospital in a panic. "What room… Son Goku… Son Gohan…" she panted to the receptionist.

The woman smiled. "Please calm down, Son-san," she said warmly. "Your husband and sons are in no danger to their lives." She looked down her list. "They are in room 208. Mr. Son is probably still there with your oldest boy. I'm afraid Gohan is in bad shape."

Chichi, the slightest bit calmer, straightened her hair, thanked the woman, and headed for the elevator. 'If I'm not careful,' she thought as the elevator music played, 'I'm going to die early from my strangled nerves!'

18, Yamcha, Tien, and Krillin were outside in the waiting room. "Thanks for calling me, 18," she said politely. 18 nodded.

Chichi walked past to room 208, pausing only for a moment at the door to room 205. Bulma and Vegeta could be heard arguing from the hall. Bulma was doing most of the shouting, berating her husband for not calling Goku in the first place when they had been robbed. Chichi chuckled to herself. There was no need to yell at the prince for starting the fight; her friend was doing it for her.

Gohan was unconscious and in very bad shape. There were bandages on his head and torso. Videl Satan, Gohan's girlfriend and schoolmate, was at his side, holding and stroking the teenage warrior's hand with loving care. Goku was on the other side of Gohan's bed, his arm around his younger son. Goku wasn't all that well, either. He had a body brace on over his clothes. Chile, whose arm was bandaged and in a sling, was leaning against the wall behind him.

"Gohan-chan," Chichi whispered, staring at her son's lifeless form. Her eyes turned to Goku. "What happened to all of you, Goku-sa?"

Goku looked up at his beloved wife. "We got in a fight," he said simply.

Chichi whacked him on the back of the head with her purse. "Well, I can see that," she screamed.

"Regular angel of TLC, ain't she," Chile said to himself. [1] Aloud he said, "Gohan's gonna be okay, Chichi. As soon as Goku feels up to it, he'll get some senzu beans from Korin. But he won't be able to if you hit him like that!"

Chichi stopped and apologized.

"I understand," said Videl. "You're upset. Here, you can sit by me, Chichi-san."

"Such a sweet girl," said Chichi. I can't wait for Gohan to marry you."

Goku grumbled, rubbing his head. 'How can someone change attitudes that fast,' he thought.

Chichi sat down. "Are you alright, Goten?"

Goten nodded. "Yes, Okaasan," he said. "I didn't get a chance to fight. The bad ladies went away before I could."

"Went away? You mean, you boys didn't even kill them!?!"

"Nope. They vanished after they hurt Oniisan. It was like magic!"

Goku's face was serious. "I don't get it. I couldn't get a good fix on their power levels. It was like they were using some other sort of energy."

"They were."

Chichi turned and saw that Piccolo was in the room too, next to the door. How could she had missed him?

"What do you mean, Piccolo-san," asked Chile.

"There are three different types of energy that can be harnessed. One is ki, one is psychic, and the other is magic. The energy that both of these women were using was definitely magic. And magic energy can do some serious damage to ki energy users." [2] Piccolo rubbed the back of his bruised neck. "What I don't understand is how they could have possibly developed such a strong attack. It takes years to master the techniques, and the small one was only about nine Earth years old at best."

Goku nodded. "Vegeta was taken down quickly because he only uses ki." He stared at his son. "These creatures are powerful. I hope we can beat them."

Just then, a nurse cam in with a clip board. "Mr. Son," she said. "We need to take some more x-rays. Please follow me."

Goku stayed put. "Why? I'm feeling better."

"Better do as she says, Kakkarot," came Vegeta's voice from the hall. "If you don't, she may have to give you a couple of shots!"

Goku stood up like his chair had caught fire. "Y-y-yes ma'am," he said, following the woman out.

Vegeta and Bulma walked through the door. Piccolo snorted. "That was low, Vegeta."

The prince smirked. "Maybe so, but it was affective." He turned his head down the hall, watching his rival follow the nurse nervously. "And not to mention fun!"

.
.

Gohan awoke to see Videl's bright blue eyes and smile right beside him. "Feeling better, Gohan-kun?" Gohan's eyes traveled around his bed. Almost everyone was there. Except… "Where's my family," he asked in a soft voice.

"Goku had to get some more tests done," said Krillin. "And your mom took Goten home.

Gohan suddenly sat up. "I recognized her, you guys! I recognized Cyra!"

"Who?"

"The girl! I know who she was!!"

The others looked at each other. "What do you mean you 'recognized' her," asked Yamcha. "We've never seen her before."

"She was Sayin," muttered Vegeta more to himself than to anyone else. "Her ki was that of our race, and she had a tail. But why was here hair orange, not golden?"

"Maybe female SSJ's hair turns different," suggested Piccolo.

"OH, LISTEN TO YOURSELVES," screamed Bulma. "There aren't anymore Sayins, remember? She'd have to be the daughter of either Goku or Vegeta or Chile! Trust me, we'd know if she was!"

"She is a Sayin," said Gohan grimly. "She's my sister."

.


[Commercial Break]


.

The room was quiet for a few seconds. "Gohan-kun," said Videl quietly, as though fearing for his sanity, "you must have hurt your head worse than we thought. You don't have a sister. Just Goten, your brother."

"No," said Krillin darkly. "He does, but she's dead."

The room went quiet again. "I think," said Chile reproachfully, "that you need to explain this - uh - new development. And don't leave anything out."

Gohan sighed. "I had hoped I'd never have to tell this story, but I guess I have no choice.

"My mother didn't give birth to only a son, but twins. A girl and a boy. In fact, they were born at the same time; they were holding hands. After they were cleaned, my mother named the boy Goten and the girl Gomi. Krillin was the only other one who was there. He drove us to the hospital. He said it made him sad that my father was dead and couldn't see his beautiful children.

[FLAHBACK]

Chichi held each one of her new children in each arm. "Kami-sama, they are so kawaii!"

Krillin let Goten grasp his finger. "Goten sure looks a lot like Goku! Everything, right down to the hair and vacant expression!"

Bulma was dangling her bracelet in front of Gomi, attracting the child into reaching for it. "And this one looks like you and Goku, Chichi." She laughed. "I'll bet she'll be as smart as Gohan!"

Chichi smiled. "Now I finally have a girl to coddle, teach how to cook, dress up, and actually-"

"Be normal," Bulma supplied.

"Exactly!"

"Aw, mom," groaned ten-year-old Gohan. "You don't have to put it like that!" He got closer to his sister. "Can I hold her?"

Chichi beamed. "Sure, Gohan-chan. Be careful."

Gohan gently lifted Gomi up. As soon as the girl was two feet away from her twin, both children started bawling. Gomi started flailing her arms about angrily. One of her small legs hit Gohan's arm. He let out a yelp and set her back down with his mom and brother.

"What happened," asked Bulma.

"I guess they just don't like being apart," said Chichi. She held her now quiet children closer. "You two are going to be the best of friends, aren't you?"

Gohan glanced at his forearm. The red coloring marked that he would bruise by the night. "You alright, Gohan," asked Krillin, his face serious.

"That really hurt me!" "Its Goku's daughter, alright," chuckled Bulma.

Krillin and Gohan were not so thrilled. "Imagine," Krillin whispered. "You're the strongest in the world right now, and a newborn girl just bruised you!"

Gohan's eyes darkened. "Her power level went up, also. I'm not so sure what to make of this. Should I talk to Piccolo?"

"Good idea, but wait until mourning."

.
.

That night, Gohan was awaken when he heard alarms go off in the nursery. He jumped to check on his brother and sister, but what he saw in the window made him gasp. A guard lay dead beside the empty crib with his sister's name. He'd been strangled.

The nurse who had raised the alarm said that Goten had fallen out of his crib, but only looked dazed from the fall. "Where's my sister," Gohan demanded.

"I-I saw no one else," the woman said.

"There she is," exclaimed another security guard. He pointed at the screen that showed pictures on the roof. Gomi crawled around, as if searching for something.

Gohan raced up the stairs. Just as he passed by the window on the eleventh story, he saw something fall. Once he reached the roof, he found no Gomi. But his Sayin ears picked up a sickening thud. Dreading what he'd see, Gohan peered over the edge.

His baby sister lay in a puddle of blood, her frail body twisted and flattened.

[END FLASHBACK]

"Figures that a stupid half-breed wouldn't survive a small fall like that," murmured Vegeta, tightening the bandages on his hands.

"Vegeta," chided Bulma.

Chile walked over and sat on the foot of Gohan's bed. "You did nothing wrong, kid," he said, patting Gohan's knee. "You didn't know it was her falling when you passed that window."

Krillin squeezed the sides of his shirt. "She was only a few hours old, and she killed a person! How… how…"

"Sayin," asked Vegeta, a bit playfully.

"Vegeta," warned Bulma, "you're not helping right now!"

"Remember Radditz," asked Piccolo, wanting to comfort his student and friend. "He was your father's brother, and Goku was going to let him go for that. It got him killed!"

"So Gomi - I mean - Cyra would have come after you later on, too," said Yamcha.

Vegeta humphed. "Glad I'm an only child. Sounds like siblings are a real nuisance."

Bulma rounded on her lover. "Vegeta, one more comment like that, and you're sleeping on the couch for the rest of the year!" She turned to the others. "Don't mind him. He's just embarrassed that he was beaten by a little girl, not to mention Goku's offspring!"

That shut Vegeta up!

"It makes more sense now," said 18. "Enma-sama must have felt sorry that he had to send a baby to Hell, so he let her keep an astral body. An old woman magician finds the baby, nurtures her, and teaches her magic."

"That doesn't explain how they became alive again, or what they want with the dragonballs," Tien reminded them.

"Yes," admitted Chile. "But its better than nothing. We know our enemies' backgrounds. And Gohan was able to get all of this off his chest."

"Gohan-kun," said Videl gently. "Do you think Cyra recognized you?"

Gohan wiped his eyes with his sheet. "I doubt it," he choked. "She was only a baby. Goten sure doesn't remember. Besides, if she had, she might've killed me!"

Chile sighed. "So, what now?"

Vegeta finally spoke up again. "We protect the remaining balls, and we don't tell Kakkarot anything that was just mentioned in this room about the girl."

"NANI!?!?!" Chile hollered. "WHY!?!?"

"Just like the Namek said. Kakkarot won't hurt his own blood if he can help it. That kind of sentiment is not only unnecessary, its dangerous!"

"Agreed," said Gohan. "We don't tell Dad who Cyra really is. Ever. It'll only cause more grief."

"Nor Chichi," agreed Bulma. "She'll try to stop you guys from fighting."

"Goten or Trunks, neither," added Yamcha. "Goten would tell Goku, and Trunks would tell Goten."

"But its his DAUGHTER," Chile pointed out. "He has a right to know!"

At that moment, Goku walked in with a big grin on his face. "Ohaiyo, everyone," he said. "I've got the senzu!" He looked around the room. All of the others looked away. "What's the matter?"

Chile looked at the face of his friend. Goku was so pure, and so happy with his life! If he knew that his daughter, whom he didn't even know existed, went to Hell and almost killed him and his son, it would break his heart. But if he found out later, after he killed Cyra, it would hurt him even more.

"Chile-kun?"

Chile shook the conflicting thoughts out of his head. "No, Otouto," he heard himself say. [3] "Nothing happened." Chile promised himself to tell Goku later, and soon.
