I was stunned for a second. "What do you mean my real father, he is my real father."
"Oh really? Then what's his real name?"
"That is his real name! What are you getting at?" I was confused and starting to get angry.
"No it's not," Vegeta said calmly.
"And why not," I said a little louder.
"Because I've never heard of him."
"Well why do you have to have heard of him?"
"..." He hesitated. "Prove to me you're related."
Now I hesitated. The truth was that my father and I were nothing alike...at all. "Well...I just got most of my genes from my mother." I said defensively.
"Really, you look exactly like your mother?"
"Well...not my height, hair and face...but...that's probably from my grandparents or something." But that wasn't true and I knew it.
"Really, and who on your dad's side has your height, hair and face."
"..." I hesitated again. "Look, why are you asking?"
Vegeta smirked knowing he had me. "So who is you real father?"
"I...I...I guess I don't know." I sighed.
"Exactly," he smirked again and I wanted to slap him with all my strength, but I was curious, so I held back. "Now, let's go see your mother and find out the truth."
"Look, why are you so curious?"
"Because, you had to get that strength from somewhere."
"Fine," I said defeated.

I sneaked into my house, praying that my dad wasn't home. I sneaked upstairs to my parents' room and peeked in. No dad. I breathed a sigh of relief. "Mom," I said to her sleeping form on the bed. "Mom," I walked up and shook her.
"Hmmmmm," she moaned and rolled over.
"Mom! Oh my gosh, what happened to you?" She was covered in blood and bruises. She just moaned again. "Mom, I'm gonna get you out of here, okay?" I said softly. With that I picked her up carefully and started walking out of the house.
"And just where do you think you're going?" a cruel voice asked behind me. I turned around. It was my dad. 'Crud,' I thought. 'How am I going to do this.'
"I'm taking my mother and leaving," I said feeling my hate for him starting to boil up.
"No you're not."
"Why not? You don't want her."
"You're not going anywhere." He was starting to get angry, but I didn't care.
"Really, and I suppose you're going to stop me?" It was a challenge and we both knew it, but after my fight with Vegeta, I was feeling pretty confident.
"Bit**, get over here!" he yelled. I carefully put my mom down out of the way and started walking toward him. "Bit**!" he yelled again and started running toward me. The fight was over in less than a minute. He was an idiot who had only fought in bar fights (Which is why it took more than 5 seconds) and he was all too easy to beat. I had him unconscious with only my hands.
"What's going on?" I looked around. Piccolo and everyone else had come inside.
"Nothing, I just had to teach him a lesson." I picked up my mom and started walking out. Gohan ran over to me and helped me carry her.
"My gosh," he whispered. "That's horrible."
"You're telling me," I answered. "I've never seen her so bad." I fought to hold tears back. It was horrible what he was willing to do to his own wife. I felt the tears start falling down my cheeks. I couldn't stop them.
"Here," Gohan whispered. "I'll take her." He took my mother out of my arms and continued to the door.
"Thanks, I'm gonna go grab something from her room." And with that I ran up to her room to get her treasure box. She always told me that if the house was burning down she would make sure that that box got out safely, even if she didn't. I picked up the box, then sat down on her bed and cried. I couldn't help it. Suddenly I felt someone's arms around me.
"Hey," Gohan said. "You okay?"
"Do I look okay?" I snapped. "I ran away a year ago to get away from him. I come back a year later and she's barely alive and it's all my fault. If I hadn't left then I would have been here to help her and she would be fine!" I stopped yelling and collapsed into his arms, sobbing. After a while I was ready to go outside with the others. I sat up and gave Gohan a hug and went and splashed water on my face then went outside.

"Joy," Kami said. I looked up. "She wants to talk to you before she meets anyone else." I nodded and went in.
"Joy?" she called from the bed she was on.
"Mom? How are you feeling?" I knelt by her side.
"Nameks are great healers." She smiled. I looked at her in shock.
"How do you know about Nameks?" I asked.
"Why don't I meet your new friends first, then I'll explain."
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why do you want to meet them first." I was totally confused.
"Because if they know what a Namek is then they may be able to help me explain."
"...O...Okay." I was very confused. I walked to the door. "She wants to meet all you guys." I said, still very confused. When everyone was in we surrounded her bed. She looked around. Suddenly her eyes grew wide. "Vegeta, what are you doing here?" she asked. "Luna? What are you doing here?" He was just as surprised as he was. "Wait a minute," Goku interrupted. "Do you mean Luna Tlarnek?" "Yes, have we met?" my mom asked. "No, it's just...those were Raditz's last words when he died." Now Goku was confused. Good, I wasn't the only one. "He's dead," my mom whispered sadly. "Yeah," said Goku apologetically. "He was going to destroy Earth, so we had to kill him...he was my brother." "He's dead," my mom whispered again. "What's going on?" I asked. My mom turned toward me. "Joy, you're real father is dead." _________________________________________________________ Ooooooooh, 'nother cliffhanger. If ya liked it, please review, if ya didn't like it, please tell me how to improve. I hope to update soon. Thanks to all my reviewers. (If you're a fan of Harry Potter I've started a few stories there, they're called Why Me? Which is about Hermione and Draco, and Hanging by a Moment which is about Severus and Sirius' sister.
And one more thing, in case you haven't noticed, I don't cuss, so any cuss words that I use will be like they were in the chapter.
Thanks for reading, now please review,
GOD bless,
