The next morning Chi Chi woke up feeling the same way she did the day before. She was sick to her stomach. She raced to her bathroom and spilled the little food she had put into her stomach out again. Why does this feel so familiar? She stood up and flushed the toilet. Piccolo was standing outside of the bathroom when she came out. Are you ok? He said when she nearly bumped into him. Oh Piccolo, you scared me. She said glancing up at him. Yes I'm fine, just feeling a little sick. You should go lie back down. I'm fine Chi Chi said with a warning glare. He backed off and then she said thirsty? Do you eat at all?
No Piccolo said I don't need to . Oh. Chi Chi said seeming a little disappointed. She said I'll get you some water, and then make Gohan some breakfast, and then I'll head out myself. Sounds like you got a busy morning planned. Piccolo said. Sure do.Chi Chi said after a little training I've got to fix the house up and then wash some clothes. Piccolo grunted and said need help? Chi Chi smiled He's being so helpful I wonder why No thank you Piccolo. She said sweetly they walked into the kitchen and she poured him the water. I'll be just fine. A week passed and Chi Chi rushed over to Capsule Corp to see Vegeta and show him the progress she'd made. She could fly much faster than before and her attacks were getting more destructive as each day passed. On the other hand she found herself getting more tired and threw up every morning. Must be coming down with a flu she figured going into Capsule Corp and straight to the gravity room.
Right on time Harpy. Vegeta said waiting for her to walk inside. She nodded and said of course wouldn't want to keep a prince waiting. Vegeta snorted and said show me what you've accomplished this week. Chi Chi smiled and pressed her hands together Ka Me she started putting her hands towards her side Ha she said charging her energy Me she said bring her hands forward Me Ha! She shouted blasting a human sized hole into the wall of the GR.
Better much better. Vegeta said. Impressive, she really is a fast learner, a couple more weeks she'll be stronger than that weakling Yamcha and chrome dome. Chi Chi smiled and then Vegeta said your ready now to move onto level 10 on the gravity scale. Heh how about that I skipped over five Vegeta turned the gravity up and watched as Chi Chi fell to her knees. She gasped and struggled to stand up. C'mon harpy this shouldn't be that much of a challenge for you. Chi Chi gasped again and clutched her stomach. Vegeta! She cried turn it off! Vegeta quickly turned the gravity off and looked over at her. She panted and clutched her side. Her eyes were shut tightly and suddenly they relaxed as she started to fall towards the floor. Harpy?! Vegeta said rushing over to her side. Her eyes were closed. Damn it! Vegeta said picking her up. I need a medic NOW! Vegeta roared. Chi Chi awoke a few hours later to find herself in a hospital bed. V-Vegeta? She said with a groan. Over here, he said standing by her bedside. What happened? She said looking up at him. You tell me you little fool. Vegeta said seeming angry with her. I don't know one minute I was standing and the next moment I was here. She said staring up at him. Why are you so upset? Oh Chi Chi! Bulma said why would you train while you're in this condition? Condition? What condition? Chi Chi said looking over at Bulma. Don't you know Bulma said? Your pregnant.
Chi Chi looked stunned for a moment as Bulma continued you're nearly a month. Chi Chi looked down at her lap and she closed her eyes. He knew, he knew I was pregnant and he left me anyway… I can't do this; I can't do this by myself. She whispered softly, it was going to be hard enough with just Gohan and myself she opened her eyes and then glanced up at Bulma. I need to get home; I need to go see my son. She said starting to get out of bed. Vegeta pushed her back down and growled you will stay there and rest, your son is already on his way.
Chi Chi looked up at him angrily and he returned her fierce gaze. You could've killed the brat today, I knew something was off about you, but I just figured it was grief. He said staring down at her. You will not be going home for some time, so just relax and rest. He finished and turned around walked out the door. Bulma went to stand by Chi Chi's side and said I know you're going to need help with this pregnancy, So you will be staying here and I'm NOT taking no for an answer. She said just as Chi Chi opened her mouth. I have a home to take care of, Chi Chi replied, and I have a house to worry about as well.
Bulma I can't just drop everything and come to stay her with you. Oh yes you can! Bulma said angrily and you will too because you need my help, and you know that I am right, Chi Chi looked away and said I can manage on my own. Chi Chi we're best friends! Bulma said don't be too proud to accept help when you really need it!
Chi Chi looked up at Bulma's face and could tell she was really hurt. Chi Chi sighed and said I'll talk to Gohan first, alright? Bulma seemed to consider this for a moment and then nodded; I'll go get your rooms ready. Chi Chi sighed and then Bulma smiled and said rest. Chi Chi waited until she was gone and then sat up. Hate she said angrily Goku I hate you! How could you, how could you possibly do this to me? She cried how could you leave us behind when you were able to return?! I'll never forgive you! She cried and her sobs reached the sayian prince's ears. Vegeta went into the room and walked over to her bed. Harpy, you need to stop crying and think about this brat that you are carrying. I know you don't want to lose the brat. I don't want to see you crying like this harpy it grates my nerves and I really need to get some training done
Chi Chi looked up at Vegeta and wiped her eyes. Your right, this is just so damn frustrating, I know he knew before he died, but he chose to stay away from us anyway, What kind of decision is that? A warrior's decision he replied looking over at her. I understand the idiot's feelings; it has to be as hard on him as it is for you. What do you mean? Chi Chi said Vegeta said I'll explain it some other time, now shut up and go to sleep. Does this mean no more training? Chi Chi said sounding disappointed. Your not the only one who's disappointed, I can't see you bouncing around anymore not until after the brat is born. Vegeta said glaring at her. Chi Chi snorted and said right you're highness.
Vegeta glared at her but she was looking down towards her lap.I really need to see Goku and tell him off, wonder if it's possible for me to get to otherworld without being dead Vegeta said she without looking up. What? He said sounding annoyed, do you know if it's possible to get to otherworld without being dead. How the hell would I know? Vegeta said sounding annoyed, where the hell did that question come from? Just a thought Chi Chi said softly looking out of the window. I'm tired, Chi Chi said suddenly, Vegeta snorted of course you are idiot. He stalked out of the room and closed the door. As soon as Chi Chi was sure that Vegeta was gone she hopped out of the bed and opened the window. She levitated outside and flew a few yards away. Flying Nimbus! She called the cloud flew down and Chi Chi whispered take me to Baba's and be quick about it.
I'll find a way to get to otherworld so I can say my piece. She rubbed her stomach as the cloud flew over west city, poor baby, you'll never meet your father.
Don't worry, I'm here for you and you'll have plenty of other people to help you as well. Piccolo noticed that Chi Chi had left as soon as she stepped out of the room. Where the hell is she going? He thought sensing her leave. Gohan, go into Capsule Corp and got play with Trunks for a little while, I'll be back. He took off before Gohan could ask any questions. Your more trouble than your worth Chi Chi Piccolo thought to himself as he tailed her to Baba's Baba sighed as she felt Chi Chi approaching did you really have to die? She said looking up at the sky. You really should've come back; your wife is pestering me.
Baba! Chi Chi shouted storming into the house, I want to go to otherworld and I want to go to otherworld now! Are you insane? Baba shouted at her the only way you can get to otherworld is if you're dead! There's another way old woman and you're going to tell me how! Chi Chi shouted back rushing into the room. You can't.! Baba shouted back, the only other way I can think of is by wishing yourself there with the dragonballs, and I can't even guarantee a safe return back! Chi Chi stalked over to Baba, but caught sight of herself in a mirror, her face was twisted in anger. She stopped and stared at herself. Have I really become such an ugly person? Her face softened and then she sighed and turned to Baba. Baba watched her carefully and then sat down. She motioned for Chi Chi to join her. Chi Chi sat down with her hands on her head for a moment and then said is there any way for me to talk to him from here then? I need to know why he left us.
Baba sighed and said lets see what I can do, I've seen a lot of things girl horrible things. Your rage is something very nasty, if you're not careful it will consume you. I know I realize that now, I just want to see him so badly, I want him to know how much he hurt me. Baba looked Chi Chi in the eye and said listen to me, this might not have been the best decision in your eyes, but He made it in your best interest.
He never was the sharpest knife in the drawer. Chi Chi said nodding. Baba just sighed and shook her head. You'll see what I mean in another seven or eight years. Chi Chi just stared. Baba focused on her crystal ball and said King kai, where are you? King Kai's antennae went wild and then shot straight up King Kai, what's wrong Goku said? Baba's trying to talk to me, better see what the old crone wants.
I heard that! Baba said angrily, listen I want to speak with Goku, I have a very confused…Chi Chi glared at Baba err very angry woman on my hands here! Baba said. Chi Chi I presume? King Kai said. Baba said yes and please for the life of me, let the two kids talk for my own sanity! King Kai looked over at Goku, your wife has some words for you. Goku gulped and then placed his hand on King Kai's shoulder. Chi Chi? Goku said softly. Goku. Chi Chi said softly. For a second all of the pain she had been feeling began to melt away. Chi Chi I'm sorry, I never meant to hurt you like this. He said to her. The moment of peace passed and she said why? Why would you leave us behind like this? It's not cause your unable to return! I know you can because I tried to wish you back and you refused! I know you did Chi Chi and I…Haven't I been a good wife to you and a good mother to our soon? Didn't I cook and clean for you and sit back to watch you fight at your own requests when I could've easily joined in to help?! Wasn't I good enough to return to?! She cried out tears falling down her face. Chi Chi try to understand my point of view Goku pleaded, I want you to be safe, I never want you to have to worry about your life or Gohan's life again. It has nothing to do with you not be a good wife and mother, you were the best!
What kind of life do you think I am going to have now?! You are my life you idiot! She cried if it wasn't for Gohan, do you think I would've hesitated to follow you in death?!
What about this child that I carry now? What am I going to do? She finished in tears. You don't need me to raise this baby or to take care of Gohan Goku said. I know I don't She said angrily I can do it all on my own, but damn it I don't want to! I want you here with me! No. Goku said to her, you'll be better off with me here in otherworld. You have plenty of people to help you; I know you'll be taken care of. Damn you Goku she said angrily damn you! I love you Chi Chi, I swear I do, and I love Gohan too and our unborn child. Please just accept Bulma's offer and stay with her. Chi Chi wiped her eyes and she said Oh Goku, no matter how much you hurt me I can't hate you, I love you too much. I will take good care of my son, and our unborn child, that much I know. However, should you ever return, do not expect me to come running back, I will not do it. I took you back once before, and I can't do it again.
Goku sighed and said I understand Chi Chi. I want you to be happy. I know you mean well Goku, but I can't bring myself to believe that just yet. She touched her stomach and Goku sighed and said I've got to go now Chi Chi I love you. I'd be lying if I said I didn't love you too. She replied that's why this hurts so much… The connection was broken off and Baba looked up at Chi Chi. she seemed to look better than she had been looking when she walked in. Thank you Baba, Chi Chi said giving the woman a warm smile, I think I'll be going now. Baba nodded and said I hope I've helped you, and that you won't bother me again. No, thank you. Chi Chi said I've gotten my answers. Baba looked shocked for a second and then she sighed. You silly little fool. You really thought he left because of you. Chi Chi smiled and then said I'll be seeing you Baba. She got up and left the house, and bumped into something hard. Ow. She said and then looked up. Oh…hi Chi Chi said sheepishly. Piccolo frowned and then turned around C'mon he said gruffly Flying Nimbus! She called. He looked back her and then she said, I'm too tired to fly.
