Safe At Last

Goku's POV

For a second I didn't know what he meant. Of cores I always got what I wanted. What would make tonight any different? "That's nice Trunks. Now here. You know what I want. Don't make me force you." I said unzipping my pants and grabbing hold of the boys purple hair.

"I'm sorry father. I'll find a way to save you… even if I am dead…"
What! No, he wouldn't! Looking down quickly and was able to just make out the soft blue light glowing in his hand. "Stop! Why you little fuck!" I yelled reaching down to grab his wrist and stop him. I was to late. A loud boom, followed by a flash of bright light blinded me, pushing me back. "NO! what are you thinking!" I yelled now squinting hard to see if the brat was ok. Though knowing that a blast like that would kill anyone if shot directly in the chest, so chances of him being fine were slim.

"Are you truly that ready to die son? I never turned to suicide… you should know, good always triumphs over evil."

Trunk's POV

My fathers firm grim slowly loosened from around my wrist. I didn't know how he'd done it, stepping in at the last second and throwing my attack to the ground before it'd done what I had attended it to do. "F-f-father… I'm so sorry…" I said in a cracked up voice as tears filled my eyes.

"It's alright. He will never hurt anyone again. But for now I need you to leave. Get away from here, and tend to Goten. You might want to tell him that his brother is no longer with us."

The look on my fathers face told me to just do as I was told and not ask any questions. I couldn't put a finger on it, but something about him was different, and something told me that Goku was in over his head. "What ever you say…" I said standing up then taking to the air back to my house. A battle was about to take place. One that would change the future of the Earth itself.

Goku's POV

I stared at Vegeta in shock for a moment. He'd been the one who'd saved his son, but how? Hadn't Gohan been watching him? Wait! "Where's Gohan!" I demanded glaring at Vegeta hard.

"Hu….." He grinned crossing his arms. Something was different about him. Only an hour ago he was broken and weak. But now? He look confident and somehow stronger then before. "You don't need to worry about him… right now you should be more concerned about yourself."

Now I was mad. How dare that little shit talk to me like that. He comes barging in here like some hero, well, I'd show him. "You've sure become brave over the last hour. So tell me, what changed you?" I asked trying to sound unfazed by his cockiness.

He just laughed again, throwing his head back in his old arrogant way. "You really are a dumb clown Kakorott… What do you think happened to your son? Do you think he just stood up and told me I was free?" he said eying me coldly. "If you really want to know use that instant transmission trick of yours and go look for yourself. I'm sure he's dying to see you." Vegeta said with the evilest smirk on his face, I hadn't seen since he'd first come to earth looking to fight me.

"Rrrrrrrr why you little fuck! I swear if you did anything to him I'll make you wish you'd never been borne! You think you have it bad now, just you wait!" I yelled balling my hands into tight fist. I didn't want to, but my curiosity to see if he'd really built up the nerve to kill Gohan was taking the best of me.

"Go ahead and see. I know you want to. I'm not going anywhere. I'll wait right here for you to came back." He said reading my mind.

"I'm not taking orders from my bitch Vegeta. I don't know how you got here, but it doesn't matter. But what I would like to know is how your regained your strength so quickly?" I said again trying to hold my frustration from my voice.

"I have your wife to thank for that. She very conveniently came home right as I was leaving." He said still smiling. "It's to bad though, she'll be the one who finds that mess in the bathroom. Oh well… after I explain everything to her she'll hate you. And you Kakorott will lose!"

"You fuck! I'll rip you to pieces!" I yelled now not able to hold back my rage.

"Whenever your ready clown… because tonight….I'll dig your grave!"

Vegeta's POV

I could feel his cool attitude slipping away the more I annoyed him. He'd been used to doing to me as he pleased, but not anymore. I was much stronger then I had been the last time we'd fought. And I had good on my side, witch was funny, quite a different turn.

He was the first to make a move, appearing behind me and swinging a slow punch that I easily dogged. He didn't wait much after before ascending to super Saiyan two. "What's the matter Kakorott? Can't keep your cool?" I mocked as he turned to face me in blind anger. "Shell we get started now, because I'm done warming up!"

It was too fast to see, but I sure felt it. A bone crushing blow to the jaw made me sore hard across the rocky earth. That was it, no more play time. Now Kakorott was pissed, and would not go easy on me. Quickly I was able to jump to my feet, but he was faster, grabbing hold of my hair and yanking my head toward his fist.

"Do you see now Vegeta? You can never be stronger then me! I OWN YOU!" He yelled punching me over and over.

"NEVER! YOU WILL NEVER OWN THE PRINCE OF ALL SAIYAN'S!" I yelled grabbing hold of the wrist that had my hair and shooting a strong beam into his chest. That was all I needed to give me the time to power up to match his strength. This was it. No holding back anymore, and no dragging this fight any longer then it needed to be.

Next was his attempt to kick me, but I easily blocked it with my arm. I quickly shoved his leg out of my way, then slammed my knuckles into his nose, drawing blood instantly. "Just look at you. You of all people losing his cool. How pathetic." I laughed as he backed away holding his face. It was clear now. I could actually sense it. Kakorott was starting to worry. All of his attacks were sloppy and un-thought-out, giving me the upper hand.

"You know Kakorott…. I never dreamed this day would come. I thought that the last two full blooded Saiyan's would be able to work as a team. Cooperate with one another so that our mighty race would carry on as best as we could allow it. But I've been proved wrong. You are a disgrace to our entire race! And once I kill you, your after life will not be as pleasant as it once was….." I said standing over him as he knelt down holding his broken ribs in pain. "I hope you burn in hell Kakorott! And may my name send fear through your mind from her on out whenever you here it!" I yelled pointing my hand toward his skull. He never looked up as I focused all of my energy into my palm. I suppose he didn't want to look death in the eye. "It's over!"

Goku's POV

How could he have become so much stronger? It was as though all of my attacks were only child's play. It didn't make any sense. I could feel the energy blast's heat as it became bigger and closer to my head. Was this really it? Was I going to be killed by the one person I'd always been stronger then?
