Don't leave me
Disclaimer: I don't own Dbz. And I don't one the song " My immortal" that belongs to the band Evanescence.
This tale takes place after the shadow dragon battles in Gt before Vegeta Jr. and Goku Jr.
Vegeta is the only full Saiyan left. And his daughter worries about him all the time, wondering what will happen today.
It was late around 10 when Trunks came in to tuck his little sister in for the night. (ok I know she's a teen. But hey… she's likes it when he does it. Don't ask.)
Trunks was in his 30's. Bra was about 18. (I'm not sure how old they would be.)
" Uh big brother…"
" What Bra?"
" Could you sing that part of that song again?"
" What again? Come on Bra I have to sleep too you know."
" I know but could you please sing it again?"
" Oh alright…." He clears his throat and begins.
" When you cried I'd wipe away all of you tears. When you scream I'd fight away all of you fears and I've held your hand through all of these years but you still have all of me."
Trunks looks at his sister. " Why do you always make me sing that part?"
" Because that's what you've done for me."
Trunks smiled. He walks out from the room.
" Uh big brother…"
" Yes what now Bra? I already told you I have to train tomorrow. I need my sleep too."
" I don't want to lose you too."
" I know Bra. But I'm not going anywhere."
Bra looked down. Trunks walked back over to his sister and sat down on the bed next to her. " I'm not going to ever let anything happen to you."
" Ya but Trunks… I don't want anything to happen to you."
" None of us are going to be around forever Bra. Father isn't as strong as he was all those years ago. He's gotten older and he doesn't have much time left. Now it's up to me to defend the earth Bra."
" But why does it have to be like that?"
" I don't know Bra. I don't want father to leave either. But that is how life is." Trunks sighed. He kissed his sister on the forehead. " Goodnight Bra."
" Night big brother."
Trunks walked out the door. Shutting it behind him. He sighs again, while looking back at the door. He looks down the hallway to his father's room.
" Well it's rather quite. That's good." Sighs for a third time. " Well I better get something to drink. Then I'll head off to bed."
He walks down the stair and goes into the kitchen. There he finds Gohan and Goten. " Oh ya… I forgot you two live here now."
" You still up Trunks?" Goten asked.
" Yep. I just came down for some water. Then I'm going to bed."
" How are you doing man?" Gohan asked.
" Fine I guess." His face showed otherwise. " Ok no I'm not fine. Man this is so damn hard! I don't want to lose father like I did mom." His fits starts to shake. " THIS JUST ISN'T FAIR!" He slams his fists into the table.
" Trunks… take it easy."
" I can't believe how calm you are after losing both your parents Gohan."
" Trunks I understand what you're going through…"
" No you don't! You have no idea. Gohan you didn't see your father and mother slowly dying before your eyes, did you? No you didn't. You didn't see it. Your parents died immediately. I can't just watch this."
Vegeta comes down the stairs.
" Father you really shouldn't be out of.." Vegeta falls into his son's arms.
" See what did I tell you."
" Trunks don't give me your crap.. I'm fine."
" Fine my foot. Come on dad… back to bed with you." With Trunks' help Vegeta got back to bed. Trunks closed the door and walked back down the stair.
" See what I mean?"
" Trunks can we talk in private?"
" Sure Gohan."
The two boys walked into the other room. They sat down on the couch and started to talk.
" I understand what it's like. I feel bad we can't do anything. I wish we could. I wished the same thing when my parents died but Trunks we can't do anything. We have to let nature take it's course. It's our turn to protect the planet."
" Ya that's the problem. It ends with us."
" What do you mean?"
" Goten's powerful but after we died Gohan… Goten and Pan will not be able to defend the planet for long. The reign of our parent the greatest defenders of Earth has come to an end. And soon… it will be our turn."
" Ya.. Pan worries about that all the time."
" Same with Bra. She keeps making me sing this part of a song."
" Let me guess My immortal…"
" That's the one."
" Pan does the same thing. But hey it's a comforting song… and it tells us something. It is showing us their feelings in a way."
" I guess.. Well thanks for the chat Gohan… I really needed it."
" Sure anytime."
