-----------------------------------

The crowds in the stands cheered as Gokou played strongly in the finals, his opponent a young skinny nerd with glasses. The level they played was Final Chase. Gokou could think of nothing else but concentrate, he couldn't think of his lover Vegeta, food, Gohan, Goten, or anybody for that matter. He couldn't think of what was going on in the kids mind. Gokou was sweating a little from the tension he felt like his life was on line, that this was his destiny. Who knew video games can cause so much tension. It felt as if it was 4 hours, he was relieved when he defeated the nerdy kid. As the crowd went even louder, Gokou took a long deep breath and shook the nerdy kids hand. but it wasn't over, as it was the finals...he had alot more to go. He decided to go over to the Shadow stadium and watche Vegeta in his match.

It seemed Vegeta had it far worse, the kid he was going against was named Ashley Vega, and she was about 16. she too used Shadow and both were in a tie. Vegeta was so tense, the only thing he could here was the game itself. If Vegeta was to win this one he would be in the semi-finals. Sadly Gokou didn't have that luxury, he still had 4 more to go. sure they weren't long, but it seemed like it. knowing people are watching you, judging you. Vegeta's eyes didn't even move from the screen, you can tell they were following Shadow's movements through the level. Shadow moved with perfection, with Vegeta controlling him, Ashley was having some trouble, but not enough to make her mess up. Shadow moved gracefully on the screen every move perfect. he was soon in the lead and was almost there. Yet Ashley was still behind him, very close. and closing in on him. Vegeta had decided to use Chaos control. making the other freeze for 10 seconds. Which was just enough for him to win. Vegeta sighed in relief, he felt like he was going to have a heart attack from all that. the crowds cheered so loud it would make a namekians head explode. Goku was relieved as well.

Meanwhile Trunks was sitting in next to Goten in Bulma's living room. Trunks was worried, by the look on Goten's face as Bulma explained what would happened during the nine months. Trunks thought, would Goten be able to make it? he knew his lover was strong, but he didn't know how strong.

"ok, so Goten are you up to it, you can still get a abortion...but after the third trimester you can't." Bulma said.

Goten placed his hand on his stoumach, ' I know it will be worth it...for me and Trunks, it's what I always wanted...but can I take the pain? there is only one way to find out' Goten though, he looked at Bulma then said, "no, abortion isn't needed."

"very well Goten...Trunks you need to watch him closely." Bulma said.

"I figured as much mom." Trunks said.

His mom still treated him as a kid, even though he had a house and all. would his mother ever see him as a adult? no, not in a thousand years. He knew he would always be a helpless child to his mother. He however had lost all respect for her, if she wasn't going to treat him as an adult, then why should he respect her?

"thank you Bulma, we better get going...lots to do." Goten said getting up.

Trunks got up as well and walked off to the car, Goten stared after him confused, Trunks didn't say goodbye to his mom, Goten said goodbye and walked off to the car as well. Goten gets in the car, places his seatbelt on and looks at Trunks, who looked like he was driving, but wasn't. the key wasn't even in the ignition.

"Trunks...what's wrong? how come you didn't say bye to Bulma." Goten said, eyes full of concern.

"it's nothing...don't worry about it." he replied, placing the key into the ignition and driving off.

Goten still looked at his lover, then his stoumach, "look Trunks, I know your mother doesn't respect you as a adult, she thinks your still a helpless child...but aren't you acting like one now?"

Trunks looked at Goten for a few seconds, then the road again, Goten was right. He has been acting childish, that was probaly why Bulma still treated him as one. Trunks could tell that Goten knew what was going on in his mind and was smiling again. Trunks loved it when he smiled like that, he looked so beautiful. his moves were graceful, and elegent. He vowed to make sure Goten would always be safe.

It was the finals Gokou and Vegeta were one on one in pyramid cave (or was it maze) both were doing great, but only one can win, it was hard to tell. The crowds cheered as it went on the final room was half black and red and half blue with sonic on the blue side and Shadow on the other. The moment was tense, neither were going easy on the other. they were 10 seconds from the goal ring, neither could use any special attack. it was the moment of truth, the crowd was quiet. the 10 seconds that would determine who would win tonight seemed like a lifetime. Then all that could be heard was "Ultimate victory" the crowd on the shadow side burst out in cheers. Gokou and Vegeta placed down the controllers and looked at each other both smiling.

"great battle Vegeta...I know you gave it your 100 percent shot, I did as well." Gokou said.

"well were even now Kakkorot..I have defeated you in a type of battle." Vegeta said grinning.

the annoucner handed Vegeta a huge box which had a picture of Shadow on it. it was his prize, and along with it a shadow and Sonic doll. of course Vegeta was going to give the Sonic one to Gokou.

(note: I have a knuckles one from six flags!)

"Vegeta...lets go home now." Gokou said happily.

Vegeta nodded in agreement, and Gokou instant transmissioned them home. Gokou was happy for his lover, he didn't mind losing, it was a fair fight. and Vegeta did dedicate more time to SA2 than he did. Which was most likely the reason why he lost. Either way, seeing Vegeta happy was the victory to Gokou. At least Gokou was second place, but he remembered the final second. it looked like Sonic and Shadow went in at the same time...for that 2 seconds, everyone thought, who won? then the voice "Ultimate Victory" it was Shadows voice. meaning Vegeta had one the match. Gokou didn't want to ruin the moment. Gokou also knew that Shadows voice saying "Ultimate victory would always be in his mind...now to when he died of old age.

"Kakkorot...are you actually thinking?" Vegeta said.

"funny Vegeta...I was...about how I am going to have your victory in my head for ever." Gokou replied. "lets set up your prize."
