Chapter Four
King Vegeta closed his eyes. He got inside to Raditz's mind. Raditz trembled. He grabbed his head... Kakuei looked at his little brother. " Hey! What's wrong?" Kakuei said.
" King Vegeta... he's in my head..."
" What! How?"
" I don't know... he's just here."
" Why do you think he's there?"
" He's trying to tap into something..."
" Like what?"
King Vegeta found what he was looking for.
" Perhaps my goodside..."
It was small, but he found it. " Here we go, Raditz my boy..." King Vegeta said.
Raditz fell to him knees... " Ah... Kakuei... the bastard is trying to make it grow."
" Why would he do that? Its not like him!"
" The prince... he might have told him too.."
" Why would he listen to him?"
"The prince is very pervasive. All I do know is I don't want to change back..." Raditz told his brother
" I don't want you to either..."
" I can't stop him..."
" There has to be a way!"
Raditz felt Goku enter his mind as well.
" Oh no... Kakarot's there too!"
" Oh my god..."
" I can't keep them out... why don't u try to beat them out..."
" How?"
" You can come in here too..."
" I- uh... don't know how to enter minds..."
" It's simple.. close your eyes and concentrate."
" You can do it.."
meanwhile inside Raditz's mind. Goku crept about Raditz's mind. He then saw King Vegeta. " What the!"
King Vegeta looked at Goku. " Hello, Kakarot."
" What are you doing here!"
" I'm trying to grow Raditz's good side." Goku looked at him. " It was my son's idea."
" Figured..."
" After he died he came to hell and made me."
Then the evil brothers showed up. " So nice to see you again King Vegeta." Raditz said
" Oh great..." King Vegeta started to work faster.. The good side was already growing rapidly.
" No matter how fast you work you will not succeed. I will not allow that good enigma to live."
" And neither will i!"
" Lemme help..." Goku went next to King Vegeta and put some of his own good energy in then made it grow. The evil brothers started powering up again. " Wait... I got an idea..." Goku said. Goku went ssj10 and filled all of Raditz with his pure energy.
The evil Raditz couldn't stand it. Raditz started powering up an attack. " Stop it!"
Goku created an energy shield that disabled his attacks. " No way..."
" Your not being fair!"
Goku flooded his mind with happy thoughts. " Life isn't fair!"
Raditz got another headache. " Damn you!"
Goku smiled. " I just want my brother back!"
" I am your brother!"
" We want to get you back..." Kakuei said, " Baby brother..."
Goku sent another blast towards him. " Stay out of this, Kakuei!" Goku shouted.
It bearly affected him. Raditz looked at his big brother and then back at Goku. The good was started to exceed the evil. " Kakarot... how could you attack your own flesh and blood!"
" He's not my brother..."
" He is too.."
" Not to me. Besides, why would you care? You are evil and emotionless after all."
" Because the three of us are brothers that's way... We aren't totally emotionless..."
" I just need one brother... but right now I have none..."
Raditz looked disappointed. " Why can't you accept it!"
" You just abandoned me... just like that... I won't let it happen ever again!"
" I am a part of him.. I didn't abandon you!"
" Yes you did... you abandoned everyone who ever cared for you!"
" And then you kill them... even Vegeta..."
" Now you listen here... i may be evil but its not like i didn't care!" Kakuei said
" You never cared!"
" How would you know!"
" Look at yourself... what I see before me is someone that never loved a soul!"
" Now that's a lie!"
Raditz looked at his brother
" Prove me wrong!"
" I can't now... not until you give up this pointless motion..."
" Feh. I want my good brother back... one that's not so heartless... I'm not giving this up until I know he's good again!"
" You do know he can't! he can't stay good..."
" If he was strong he could..."
" He is strong..."
" Not as much in the mind. If he was, he could fight it off. My bad side isn't even a challenge anymore..."
" Kakarot, little brother listen... you know i can't leave him...And you... little brother... you hit your head as an infant! You lost your Saiyan ways."
Kakuei looked at Raditz. " So that's why..."
" That doesn't matter... it still lives inside of me. It burns at me to kill."
" If i remember right... you got like 1 evil in you... You gave the rest to me..."
" Actually... it has grown over the years..."
Kakuei smiled evilly
" But still... that's no excuse..."
" I live in him... that is a fact."
" I'm just surprised that you couldn't control it."
" What's wrong with me? I'm not that bad... When it comes to an evil person... i'm not bad..."
" Really."
" Yes really. I'm not as bad as you think."
" You heard me... prove it."
" I'm sorry!...I can't. To you evil is evil right."
" Yes. Because evil is bad. Evil does bad things. Evil isn't capable of good."
" I thought you felt that way..But i can't help it... that's the way i am...And as you say evil isn't capable of good..."
Kakuei looked at his brother... " Raditz... don't let him raddle you."
" I'm not...So what's the point of proving it! The point of the matter is we have just as much right to live as the others..."
" You have the rite... but a lot of people won't think that."
" Why?"
" Because you destroy so much! Such ruthless, heartless people don't deserve to live! that's what they think when you commit such horrid crimes."
" I figured that.. I guess there is no way we can... then"
" If you stop this destruction you may be able to."
Kakuei didn't like that idea. " You can't stop something you have done for your whole life!"
" I have killed for years upon years... I know not of peace..."
" You only say that because you have never tried to stop."
" I can't stop something i want.."
" You shouldn't want it."
" It's my life! I've done nothing else in it! I can't just drop my ways... like that! No Saiyan can! Just like you can't stop being good.."
" Kakarot... why are you interfering?" Raditz asked
" Because... its a very bad thing to kill yourselves... besides, I don't want you to die!"
" Kakarot.. you don't make sense... you said you didn't like me.." Kakuei said
"It doesn't matter if I like you or not... no one deserves to die... not even you."
" Well at least you think so..."
" I know so."
" But I'm going threw with it regardless."
" I won't let you!"
" Please..."
" No."
" I must... i can't live in your world."
" Of coarse you can!"
" No... i have caused too much damage in your world already."
" You can help rebuild it... peacefully..."
" I can't live in peace... i never had."
" That's ok... you can learn. I can help you."
" its alright."
" Don't!"
" Why not? it is to hard to make the adjustment."
" Of coarse it is..."
" Just let us put the sins of our race to bed!."
" No! Killing yourselves won't solve anything!"
" Kakarot... its the way we do things.."
" I don't care."
" Just let me end it..."
" Can't you try and bear with me here?"
" Why?"
" Because! I need you to understand that what you're doing is pointless!"
" I'm making up for all the wrong i committed."
" You can do that a different way..."
" No... I can't."
" Neither of us can." Raditz said, " Just drop it little brother."
" You guys are just impossible to convince, aren't you?"
" Yes we are.."
" Now... let us end it..."
" But..."
" What?"
" I don't want you to die!"
The brothers smiled at Goku. " We know that too. But we must... We shall not meet again... We are going to hell..." The brothers said
" I'm going then! You're not leaving me!"
" You won't be in hell.."
" I make myself go..."
" Lets us go in peace... you always brag about it... Hell is where we belong..."
" It won't be peace in hell."
" For us... yes."
" Let us go..."
" I said I'm coming with... whether you like it or not."
" Hell is not for you..."
"Brothers will arise together and they will fall together."
They sigh.
" Kakarot... if you do this... your soul will be ripped apart."
" At least I can be with my family..."
" You still have family here. Our father."
" No one else though... not even my friends anymore..."
" And i will not allow you to follow my..." Raditz stated
Goku descended to ssj9. With his energy he started wrecking planets with his mind. It hurt him to do so but maybe it would get him to hell.
" Stop that!"
" I'm going with you!"
" Damn it KAKAROT! Don't do this! The both of us care about u... and hell is not for you..."
" Hey! Stop! I don't wanna get beat up by my son because of you!" King Vegeta yelled.
" What makes you think I don't care for you!"
" He wanted me here to help you..."
"Just stop... Listen to me Kakarot..."Kakuei said
" I've been to hell... its terrible for someone who's done good all there life!"
The planet they were on started to shake. " KAKAROT!" Goku had an odd smile on his face. Kakuei couldn't stand it anymore.. So he stopped Goku. He stabbed him bring him to the ground. " I said stop."
Goku looked at the dagger in his side. " I told you to stop.." He took it and pushed it in more. " Kakarot... you committing sudide on me now?"
" See ya... in hell.." Goku said as he fell forward.
The brother were in shock. Raditz feel to his knees. " That idiot!" He sobbed. Kakuei looked at Raditz. Kakuei pats him on the back. Goku's body had transformed back to normal. Blood trickled down from his wound. " Kakuei... i guess we will follow him after all." Raditz takes out his sword. Goku's spirit hadn't departed yet for some reason. The least bit of energy still clung to him. " A few years ago... he tried to stop me... I guess it comes down to it anyway."
" Wait..."
Raditz sword was directly at his heart. Kakuei goes over to Goku and feels for a pulse. " We wouldn't be meeting him... not at all..."
Raditz looked at him. " What?"
" There's still a VERY faint pulse..."
" He couldn't go through with it i see. Well i am!" Raditz pulled back his sword.
" He tried... I'll end it for him..." Kakuei took the dagger in his hands. Raditz didn't say anything. He was preparing himself for death. Kakuei was being held back for some reason.
Raditz looked at him. " What's wrong? Why haven't you ended it?"
" I... something's holding me back... why can't I..."
" Something's holding you back?"
" I'll do it!"
" I dunno why... but... I have this feeling..."
Raditz came closer to Goku's body. Light shown out of Goku's wound. " What's that light?"
" You expect me to know?"
" I hate it when these things happen when i don't understand them. Is it a soul... or is it me?"
" Um..."
" No matter... i'm going to put an end to this..." Raditz lifted his sword
Thoughts of Goku and how he protected the universe without trying to hurt a soul and how gentle and loving he was rushed through their minds. " You feeling that!"
" Yes!"
Then their own lives flash before them. " What is going on!"
" I don't know!"
" I can't take it anymore...I gotta finish this now!" Raditz once again lifted his sword. When he tried to stab himself his body acted like nothing had happened. no blood, no pain, no nothing. He didn't feel anything.
He felt perfectly fine. " What is this trickery!"
" Um... something must be wrong with your body..."
" No... that's not possible! This must be little brothers tricks.."
" How could HE do this?"
" I don't know! But i has to be him!"
" Kakarot? Nah..." came a voice.
" Who... said that."
" You think I'd really let you die? The one that treated me so much like a brother? The one that I learned so much from?" Vegeta said.
" Damn... what is with you people... just let it go already!"
" No way..."
" Vegeta... just let me die in peace... Give me that much!"
" How can I? Really."
" Vegeta! Please... I need this.."
" How can you need it!" Vegeta snapped.
" I'm finally going to repent... right now. Just let me do that! And don't give me a damn lecture!"
" I'm not like Kakarot... I won't waste your time. I just wish you wouldn't."
" Please... let me do it..."
" You can do what you wish..."
Raditz picked up his sword again. He pulled it back. He sighed and he closes his eyes. Vegeta shook his head disappointedly as he left. " See you two in hell." He told his brothers.. Goku's spirit finally started to come out of his body. Raditz pushed the sword through his body. Kakuei... picked up his dager and did likewise. Both brothers feel back.
King Vegeta went back to hell. " What a waste of time..." he said.
