A/N: DB/Z is owned by Akira Toriyama only! (Nods head)
OMFG I'm so sorry for my lateness! I don't really have much of an excuse…well, I have, and I just haven't been in a writing mood I guess. But I got my spark back (hopefully)! Hope you like this chapter!
-I Pray-
Two week had passed since their imprisonment…two weeks of Hell. They were hungry…no, starving! The food they were given was old and rotten, the water hot and somehow dry. But wit the 50 or so people they came with…the numbers were dropping…fast…
Goku rested his tired sweating head against the warm hard rocky wall. It was early hours of the morning, he could tell from the sunlight that barely squeezed through the inch sized gap in the wall. He sighed with exhaustion and closed his eyes once more, his eyes burning from the dirt and sweat that now lived upon him. In his mind…he was suffering. Not suffering like them, but suffering…alone. It wasn't from the lack of food or water…it wasn't from the lack of freedom. No this was one crazy emotional reason to suffer…
…Chichi…
She was one of his best friends, someone he had known since his childhood, someone who had always been there for him, someone he could depend on. But now he was telling himself…their friendship was ruined now…their friendship was no longer just a friendship…was it?
He told himself over and over again he shouldn't have kissed her, he should have resisted. But, then in the back of his mind, he knew he couldn't have resisted no matter how hard he tried. He had always felt deeply for Chichi, and he admitted he loved her more than anyone else. But he thought nothing of it…just a…strong friendship. He had always found her amazing, smart, attractive, loving and caring. And he loved her for that.
Thinking about the kiss now, he suddenly had a weird yet familiar warm feeling. Every time he saw her in the village his heart would beat uncontrollably and the smile on his face would widen just for her. He would always go down to the well when she did only so he could see her. For her only, he kept a special place in his heart…
…was this love?
What if it wasn't a "caught in the moment" thing that he had thought it was before? What if that kiss was meant to happen? What if he really was in love with her?
But even so…the two hadn't talked or so much looked at each other since then. Did she feel the same way? He wondered. Was she just as confused as him?
A sudden piercing frantic cry shook away such thought and rapidly he opened his eyes in shock. He looked across at his friends who now had themselves glued to the bars, looking across at something. Goku got himself up and quickly ran over to the bars to glance over opposite. His eyes widened even more and his mouth opened with a shocking gasp…
It was Kayshee…she was crying and calling for her baby Chai…who was now dead in her arms…
Goku leant his sweaty forehead against the cold bars of steel. He clenched his eyes shut and frowned, the pain and loss evident on his face just as much as hers…This just wasn't fair…three people had already been lost…now a child…
Kayshee's cries mixed up in his head as he pulled back from the bars. He couldn't take this anymore. He couldn't take anymore deaths or mourns.
"I can't take this!" he almost yelled backing away from his friends, "I can't take no more!" he shouted loudly as he kicked the bars.
"HEY GENERAL YOU BASTARD! GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE NOW! LET ME SHOW YOU PAIN! LET ME SHOW YOU SUFFERING YOU SELFISH BASTARD! LET ME OUT!" He bellowed angrily, everybody looking at him in shock and fear.
"Goku! Stop it! Be quiet!" Yamcha ordered as he grabbed him, and wrestled him to the floor. He held him down the best he could, being chained didn't help much as Goku yelled at him to get the Hell off him. Yamcha refused t listen and Krillin decided to help him by holding down Goku's wriggling legs.
"That's ENOUGH GOKU!" Yamcha shouted next to his ear as he lay on Goku's back. Goku stopped struggling and only breathed loudly. Yamcha doing the same.
"That's enough…calm down" Yamcha told him a little gentler than before" Krillin prayed Goku had stopped now because he knew how strong his friend was. The others only stood quietly watching.
"I feel so helpless…"He whispered loud enough for the small group to hear, "I could always help people…now I can't so anything…I can't do anything!" he shouted a little louder, "I hate it…and it just pisses me off that that General…that selfish bastard up there is loving it!" he angrily stated. He let his forehead rest on the duty ground.
I just can't take anymore…" he trailed off quietly.
That was the last thing said all day. A few cries were heard, mainly from Kayshee as she still held onto the cold body of her baby…but nothing else was heard.
Dawn…was once again approaching. Everyone was asleep or at least trying to get some before the sun rose up. Everything was quiet now, except from the few snores and the shuffling of bodies as they slept. For once, Goku was sleeping peacefully…well, as peacefully as you can get at such times. And for once, his eyes were not hurting and his mind was at rest…but he groaned when the main door to the dungeon was opened and in came the General.
He entered dressed in his best, about 6 men at his side as he strolled in. He cringed at the smell of feces and rotting flesh as he walked past a few of the cells.
"It's good to see the majority of you are still alive" he said smirking afterwards, "A shame not all of you are" he then said, taking his stare to Kayshee. Goku gasped in disgust which caught the General's attention. The General walked over to Goku and stopped as he reached the bars.
"My Lord would like some entertainment, and I think you'll be the perfect choice"
"Go to Hell" Goku muttered. The General only laughed.
"Yes you will definitely be the right choice" he smirked at the young boy and turned to see everyone else, "And don't worry you will all be able to watch the show" he said with a chuckle.
"Bring him" he ordered to his men. They nodded and took a struggling Goku from his prison and lead him out of the dungeon. Chichi grasped a hold of the General before one of the men could close the prison shut and roughly she shook him and tried to strangle him, the anger apparent and the tears falling down her pale face. He laughed, grabbed her by her arms and threw her nastily back into the cell. She hit the ground hard, her chin coming into contact with the ground, causing her to bite her lip. She winced as she got to her knees, holding her stomach. She let the blood trickle down her chin, her eyes fixed on his angrily as he locked the cell up.
"Don't worry…I'm sure you will be reunited with your boyfriend soon enough" he said before laughing as he walked off.
"Get the men in here so these people can come and watch the show!" he shouted as he left. Chichi only fell to her knees in fear.
"Goku"….she whispered, "What are they going to do to you?..."
