Kakarotto laid on the forest floor his body torn and beaten. A figure stood over him. Kakarotto pulled himself painfully in a fetal position. Coughing up more blood he looked up at the person who stood over him.
"W-We Kil-Killed you" Kakarotto coughed out. 17 laughed bending down and looking Kakarotto in the eyes.
"That what you thought" He hissed out. His voice calm, which sent a shiver up Kakarotto's spin. Close to death and still the only thing he could think of was Vegeta. He knew Vegeta wouldn't help him, The forsaken angel was to arrogant to help the close to death angel. Kakarotto screamed in pain as 17 continued to brutally beat him. "Look around, this is the last time you'll be seeing Earth" 17 said then Kicked Kakarotto in the temple with his steel toed boat. Kakarotto yelled one last time, before falling limp.
Vegeta ran as fast as he could hearing cries of sheer pain coming from deep inside the forest. Finally seeing a figure standing Vegeta flew at him. Recognizing the slim form and the straight all black hair. Vegeta speared 17 to the ground making them skid for a few yards. The two kneed and punched each other rapidly. Rolling onto the ground with neither getting the upper hand. 17 landed a hard blow to Vegeta's jaw. Giving him enough time to pin the angel to the ground. 17 continued to punch Vegeta in the face. Until Vegeta went limp. 17 looked down quizzically.
"That was fast" The demon said allowed. 17 smirked triumphal. He grabbed Vegeta's head. Getting ready to snap his neck...
"Come on So close" Lucifer yelled out as he watched 17 get ready to kill Vegeta. He was brought out of his trance on the TV as one of his many assistances comes in.
"Sire, I am afraid to tell you that there is man out here needing your help" 18 said her blonde hair falling in her face as she bowed.
"How Dare you interrupt me while I'm in the middle of something" Lucifer shouted. Then looking back at the giant TV he saw that it was blank. Nothing was showing up. He screamed in rage. "You should be punished for what you have caused" Lucifer then shot and enormous ki blast at the unexpected demon. Killing her automatically. "Serves her right"
Kakarotto looked around. His head was in a whole lot of pain and he couldn't see straight. Finally his eyes fell upon 17 who was sitting on top of someone. Getting a better look Kakarotto could tell it was Vegeta.
"How in the world" Kakarotto mumbled. He watched as 17 grabbed Vegeta's neck. Not having to much strength left He used the rest of his strength to shoot a ki blast at the demon. Then Again he fell to a state of unconscious.
Vegeta felt the Demon waver in his defense as he was knocked to the side by the blast. That giving Vegeta enough time to through the demon off him. He quickly got up and charged at 17. Throwing punches and kicks landing about every other one. Easily he over powered 17, being able to get most of his energy back when he was unconscious. Hitting 17 enough times in his head, the demon started to bleed to death. His attacks getting weaker and his defense dropping more. Vegeta continued his frontal assault until 17 dropped to the floor, Shaking uncontrollably. Vegeta watched for a few seconds as blood just pored from all the wounds the demon had. Then went to Kakarotto's aid. Running to his side he picked the angel up carefully. Putting one hand under the small of his back and his other arm underneath his knees. Looking back one more time he saw the demon disappear. Vegeta walked over to the small cabin that was only a few hundred yards away. He walked in not knowing or caring if it was the angels home or not. He set Kakarotto on the couch in the living then started look for a bathroom.
"Dende Go down to Earth and make sure to keep an eye on those two" Kami yelled to his apprentice. The small namekian demi-god walked over to Kami looking up at him oddly.
"But sir. Are you sure, You did Forsake Vegeta for a reason" Dende asked. Then cringing at the murderous look he got from Kami
"Yes and I did it for good reason, but it seems our Vegeta is coming back to us" Kami stated. Dende being young and mischievous decided to see how far he could push the elder namek.
"But didn't you say that you would never let that hot headed angel back into heaven" Dende stated in a matter of fact tone. Kami fumed with anger. 'Little punks always think there right' Kami thought.
"Ok Dende. Just go to Earth and watch those two"
"What two?" Dende asked
"WHAT TWO DO YOU THINK I'M TALKING ABOUT" Kami yelled. Dende put up his hands defensively.
"Ok, Ok I'm going" Dende said then his white wings came out and he floated down towards Earth. Using his powers to be invisible. He started flying around looking for Vegeta and Kakarotto.
After bandaging Kakarotto up Vegeta settled himself in the chair just to the right of where Kakarotto laid. He didn't know why he had helped the angel or why he was so worried about him. But he was getting suspicious. He looked over at the angel. His normal wild locks of hair where now dull and laid flat and his usually soft and cheerful face didn't hold that glimpse of hope anymore. He wondered if it was just because he was sleeping or because it was from the battle with the demon. Vegeta shook his head. Why would he care was the question he wanted an answer to. Why would it matter if the handsome angel died or if heaven vanished and the world came to an end. Vegeta was brought out of his thoughts when there was a bright white light then it faded. Vegeta growled. Another God Damn Angel. He looked up at the green skinned angel. It's white wings behind him. Vegeta almost looked envious.
"What do you want?" Vegeta asked.
"I finally found you guys. Dang it took forever. Alright so how is he doing?" Dende asked looking over at Kakarotto. He looked back to Vegeta when he didn't receive an answer.
"Ok if your going to be that way I'm not going to talk to you then either" Dende said then walked over to Kakarotto placing his hands over his chest. Before he could start healing him. Vegeta shouted
"Hey, what do you think your doing?" Vegeta asked worried that the small demi-god was going to send Kakarotto back to heaven. Dende took his hands away.
"Ok, now you start talking. I was going to heal him. My gosh you just met him and your already over protective" Dende said then went back to trying to heal the unconscious angel. Just before he was ready Vegeta stopped him yet again.
"What do you mean by that?" Vegeta asked
"ugh. Ok I'll tell you Everything. If you promise not to interrupt me when I try to heal him" Dende said pointing at Kakarotto. Dende moved his hands then sat on the floor next to Kakarotto. Not speaking while he healed Kakarotto. He looked up after he was finished. Vegeta watched as the color in Kakarotto's face returned "Alright. Now do you know who he actually is?"
"yeah its Kakarotto" Vegeta said with boredom in his tone.
"No, he isn't just Kakarotto. He was your guardian. In heaven Angels have to have guardians also, to make sure that the angels keep in line and don't sway away from there duties. Did you know that?" Dende asked. Then watched as Vegeta thought. After waiting about a minute Dende continued. "Exactly He didn't tell you. You just knew that there was some kind of connection between the two of you. He came to earth waiting for you. He gave up his life of being a guardian, so he could stay with you." Dende watched Vegeta intently. "See this explains why your attracted to him so fast" Vegeta blushed at the comment then pushed it down.
"I do not like that Baka"
"Umm Hmm" Dende said while rolling his eyes.
"So your trying to tell me that we where meant to be or something?"
"Exactly. Now you know" Dende said while standing up. "Now he'll probably sleep for awhile, while he regains his strength. Keep a watch on him and if anything happens just use your gem." Dende said then the white light came back and the small green angel was gone, just as quick as he came. Vegeta watch as he vanished then looked down at Kakarotto's sleeping form. He gently picked the other angel up and carried him into the closest bedroom he could find. Vegeta laid down next to him. Thinking of everything Dende had said.
"Is this all true" Vegeta mumbled to himself before he fell into a light sleep.
