Oh yeah from now on I'm gonna write short Chappies since I type ever so slowly -.- ok enough with my babbling on with this story.
Chapter 2: Waiting
Last time on Hidden Emotions:
'Why does he care? I want to die…I can't live like this any longer, maybe he'll finally notice me when I'm gone…will he care?' Hot tears rolled down her face as she ran as fast as her legs can go.
"FLYING NIIIMMMBBBUSSS!" The fluffy yellow cloud zoomed down and without stopping she jumped on it.
"CHI-CHI NOO!" Goku yelled seen her figure go farther and farther until it was a speck and then it was gone. 'Don't die on me Chi…please."
Everybody was looking at the numbers decrease every second. Their eyes filled with concern.
"Half an hour left." Bulma said in monotone voice.
"This can't happen I'm to beautiful die!" Bulma screeched,
"Me too!" Yamcha screamed,
"Me Three!" Everybody looked back at the brown haired green eyed boy.
"Usukushii? When did you get here?" He shrugged and bit a cookie.
"Just came. What are you guys screeching about?"
"You mean you don't know?" Bulma replied deadpanned and annoyed.
"Know what? I just came to here to meet chi-Chan."
"Look," Bulma started hesantly "I'm going to put this as simple as possible," but before she can say anything else a very wet Goku came bursting in the doors breathing heavily.
"Guys we have to…," Goku stopped when he saw Usukushii staring at him oddly.
"What the hell are you staring at? You've never seen a man take a swim before?" Usukushii frowned and replied,
"I don't know what I did to upset you but you should really watch that nasty attitude of yours." Goku's left eye twitched.
"Maybe you should watch what you say to me before you end up digging your own grave."
"I highly doubt a crybaby like you can do that." Goku froze. 'No way he saw me? But..when? How? I didn't start crying until after I left the mall.'
"What do you mean by that…?" He asked slowly glaring at him. Usukushii said nothing and only smirked. This made Goku feel very uneasy. Oolong who was staring at the numbers in pure terror had had enough.
"WOULD YOU PLEASE JUST LEAVE AND KICK PICCOLO'S ASS ALREADY!" Goku snapped back into reality.
"Right, come on guys." Yamcha and Krillin nodded. Once they were out the door Goku's head twisted back to face Usukushii and growled, "This is not over."
Chi-Chi's sadness had diminished but was now filled with terror once she saw King Piccolo's form become more visible as she neared closer , 'Ah shit…I'm screwed.'
Piccolo's sensitive ears picked up a sound of a certain little cloud. He looked up and saw a pair of ebony eyes staring back at him. Chi-Chi's fear suddenly disappeared when she thought about Goku, 'He would never be scared of an ass like him,' Once she landed he smirked.
"What took you so long? And where's your little monkey boyfriend?"
"Sorry green bean he ain't by boyfriend so you'll just have to deal with me." Chi-Chi said full of confidence.
"My my such big words for a puny human female. That's too bad I was really hoping he would come."
"Why? Are you attracted to him?" She said mocking him.
"Sorry to tell you that he's not your type, but I'll be more than welcome to ask him though." Piccolo growled and swore under his breath.
"I'm just giving you a chance besides he's a lot more fun to play with, I still remember that look on his face when I was breaking every bone in your pathetic little body hahaha priceless." Chi-Chi glared at him and was about to make a quick come back when from the corner of her eye saw Nimbus fly off with tremendous speed. She smiled, 'Does Goku care for me afterall?' She snapped her eyes back to the Namekian, 'I have to keep him busy until everybody gets here… but for how long will he listen to my insults until he finally gets tired and kills me?
"FASTER NIMBUS" Goku yelled very agitated. 'Don't die Chi-Chan I'm almost there just please hang on a little longer.' Trailing behind him were all of the other warriors in a capsule hover craft wondering how were they going to survive this fight.
5 minutes later
"If I didn't know any better I'd say you'd be stalling,"
'Gee no kidding Jackass.'
"Maybe I am maybe I'm not." Chi-Chi said smirking.
"Well in case that you are I'm going to kill you right now!" And with a blink of an eye a fireball was heading straight towards her. Chi-Chi froze to scared to anything. But lucky enough for her her knight in an orange gi scooped her off her feet onto his noble yellow steed. Ok so it didn't exactly sound like a fairytale but hey she was happy to see Goku again. Goku sighed in relief but didn't dare show his worried side to her, he would be ridiculed by her his whole life.
"What made you come here Goku," Chi-Chi asked quietly as if she was almost scared to ask.
"Did your feelings toward me change just a little?" Goku stiffened, 'Just tell her the truth! Out with it it's killing you just say it!'
"No,"
'WHAT AM I DOING?'
"I told you I wanted to fight him besides your father would bite my head off if you weren't alive, it has nothing to do with me wanting to save you." Chi-Chi's eyes began to water.
"So th-this is what you think of me huh? A nuisance?" Goku didn't dare look back he knew his heart wouldn't be able to handle her crying face.
"Fine I don't need your help I can fight him myself!" Goku's heart twisted a little.
"He's too strong for you.
" Chi-Chi scoffed "Like you care!" Goku turned around abruptly and stared straight into her eyes.
"Chi-Chi are you stupid or do you have some kind of death wish? Don't you remember what happened to you last time?" He winced just thinking about it, while Chi-Chi looked away from his eyes letting her past come back to her, as well did Goku.
Flashback
Piccolo and Goku were in an intense battle both beating at each other while Chi-Chi just stood there looking at them stupidly.
'I have to do something or Goku's gonna die!' She closed her eyes and ran towards them hoping Piccolo would stop and come for her instead, no such luck. There's only one thing to do, insult him. "HEY QUIT PICKING ON HIM! I KNOW YOU'RE JEALOUS THAT HE HAS BALLS UNLIKE YOU BUT COME ON!" Goku blushed a deep shade of red and looked down hoping she wouldn't see it. Piccolo on the other hand was boiling with anger and sped fast towards her.
"YOU Little loudmouth bitch!" Goku's eye snapped to where Chi-Chi was and tried to get there first but was too slow, Piccolo had beaten him to her.
"So you think you can get away with that? Heh well you're wrong!" And with that he grabbed her arm and pulled it back until he heard the bone snap. Chi-Chi cried in pain tears flowing down her face. Goku stood there staring in horror his heart broke for every whimper that escaped her lips.
"S-Stop it …STOP IT!" He yelled, anger building up inside of him.
"Why should I? This is fun," Piccolo chuckled now breaking her other arm. Her screams and whimpers continued to fuel his anger.
"Let her go…," He warned coldly. Another crack was heard coming from her right leg.
"I warned you…I warned you…I WARNED YOU TO LET HER GO!"
"Well what are you going to do about-," His words were cut off when Goku elbowed his eye.
"I warned you…," He repeated in the same lifeless voice, "I warned you but now you've gone too far." He then walked over to Chi-Chi's side and placed her on his nimbus cloud. Goku stroked her hair knowing she won't be able to feel him since she fell on conscious from the pain. Facing Piccolo once more he cupped his hands forming a huge blue energy ball.
"KA-MA-HA-ME," Unfortunately for Piccolo whose eye was still bleeding didn't notice what the young spiky haired boy was doing, "Where's that loudmouthed bitch." He mumbled loud enough for Goku to hear. He finally snapped and yelled the final word for his attack, "HA!" Piccolo looked back and saw the blinding coming towards him, not having any time to block the attack he was thrown to a nearby mountain. Goku waited until the smoke cleared to see his nemesis sprawled all over the ground barley able to move.
"Let that be a lesson to you," He growled wildly, "NEVER touch MY mate again got it?" Piccolo only cursed under his breath and fell unconscious leaving Goku alone with his threats. He looked back onto Chi-Chi seeing her face full of pain and agony.
"I promise you I'll never let anybody hurt you again Chi-Chan I promise."
End of Flashback
'What did I mean by my mate?'
"I remembered what happened Goku that's why I want to fight him!" Goku sighed in defeat.
"Fine but I'm fighting with you." Chi-Chi nodded and winked at him, blushing a little she said,
"Now go show that She-Male what a true man with balls can fight like!" Goku blushed a crimson red and simply nodded.
"You know you look cute when you blush" Goku looked up his face completely flushed. "Wh-what?" She took her tongue out and jeered.
"As if I would say that! I can't believe you fell for that you dumbass!" Goku blushed furiously and knocked her off Nimbus which was only a few feet off the ground.
"Hey! What was that for?" Goku glared at her with a shade of pink still lingering on his cheeks.
"Are we here to mock or fight? If you came here to mock me then I would have just let you die!" This immediately shut her up and the wound in her heart reopened.
"Now let's go." She nodded to his command and saw that Krillin and the others were a few feet behind them.
'Now the real fight begins Piccolo.'
