Hi, thanks for the reviews. I thought I would get more, but I didn't. I'm getting less and less reviews, so if you read my story and don't review can you take a couple of mintues of your time to do so. So I know what you guys think, and the faster I will update. Thank for all you guys who have stayed with this story. That means a lot.

Pearlz: I made his eyes black for some reasons. It's because of the collar that Gohan's eye are like that. So if you stay in my story long enough you will find out, and you wouldn't be disappointed. :P

Android 71: I make Goku nice in this story. It just makes Goku feel even worst. Thanks for the grammar grading in each chapater.

I'm going to stop typing now because it's getting really annyoing. My 'e' button is not working so everytime I need the letter 'e' I have to cut and paste. It's not very fun.

I don't own Dragonball Z if you think I did...*starts to laugh*

Hidden Bars

Into a Helpless Dream

*Gohan, what happen? *

AJ sat there next to Gohan, moving his bangs out of his face as he slept. It has been an hour since he been knocked out.

What happen early really freaked her out, Gohan's form just didn't seem right. She saw a picture of his father in the super saiyan form, for one, Goku had more control. Two: He was able to transform at free will. Three: His eyes, why were Gohan's eyes black while his fathers is green? Black eyes during that form looked freaky. They just didn't flow right with the rest of the form. Gohan was free from the collar, so why hasn't his form go back to the way it use to be?

Gohan started to mumble and turn, it seems that he was having another nightmare. The poor soul was afraid of everything now.

"Gohan?"

AJ shot her head up and turned to the door, to see Mikia walking up to Gohan.

"What happened?"

"I dunno, it's a long story though. One that doesn't make any sense."

Mikia put her hands on her hips.

"I have the rest of the night, tell me this tale."

AJ told her sister what happened. Once they were done, Mikia didn't know what to say as well. She turned her head from her sister and looked down at Gohan. He was still sweating, as well as twisting and turning in his sleep.

"I wonder what happened to him?"

Mikia looked over at her sister, who couldn't take her eyes off Gohan, brushing his bangs out of his face once again.

"Why is he like this?"

"AJ, he was a slave of Vanlash's, no one is going to turn out normal coming from him."

"No, that's not it, there is more to that, I know it."

"What do you think?"

"It must have been while at Earth. You should of saw his face when I showed him his father's file."

Mikia's eyes widen.

"You told him about that?"

"Well, it wouldn't be right lying to him."

"I guess your right. Poor guy though."

"Why do you say that?"

"I mean…"

"His father cares so much for him that he will look for him after being kidnapped."

"But it doesn't tell us the whole story. It says that his father was died for a year right?"

"Yes, that's true."

"He died fighting Cell right?"

"Yeah, and it said that he was wished back with the Namek dragonballs, why wasn't he wished back early?"

Truth to be told, although Gohan didn't know. The files never gave out the whole story, it said that Gohan defeated Cell, not how, not why, not what happened afterwards. They were lost, what really happened to Gohan?

"You have a point there AJ. Should we ask him?"

AJ turned over to Gohan, he was breathing hard now.

"Would he even tell us? I think he will just turn super saiyan again."

"Then how can we find out, the files aren't any help. And I want to help him."

"Me too."

They both looked at each other lost of words. AJ got up and walked to the window, looking out at the stars.

"I have an idea, maybe you have heard of it."

"I'm listening."

"What if, we can get inside his dreams?"

Mikia stepped back.

"That isn't right, I mean, his dreams?"

"I know, but unless we know what is going on, we can never help him. And you know he wouldn't tell us."

Mikia looked down at the ground, true she did want to help Gohan. But going into his dreams, it just doesn't seem right.

"Okay."

AJ nodded her head and walked up to Gohan.

"So how do we do this?"

"We? It's all you sister."

"Okay, why?"

"Just in case Gohan gets pissed at you, I had nothing to do with it."

"Fine then."

"Okay."

AJ and Mikia looked to other way, they didn't have anything to say. Mikia turned her head to look at her sister, she sighed, looking at the ground.

"AJ, I'm sorry about the other day…"

AJ turned her head and looked at her sister. Mikia's head was down, sighing deeply.

"I don't think your foolish, I was just upset."

AJ walked up and hugged her sister.

"It's okay."

Mikia hugged her sister back, she felt so relieved. AJ already had enough problems, she didn't want her to have more. AJ let go of her sister, pushing her bangs out of her face.

"Well Dream Messenger, what do I do?"

Mikia smirked.

"I might be the Dream Messenger, but I don't think so though."

AJ laughed.

"You, not the Dream Messenger, don't make me laugh. I mean, your just like what they say in the legend."

Mikia blushed as she smiled.

"Well how do we start?"

Mikia watched as AJ moved closer to Gohan, moving his bangs out of his face. "The Dream Messenger" has never seen her sister caring for some one so deeply as she was with Gohan.

"Well first, you have to be touching him in same way."

AJ sat down on the floor, and put her hand on Gohan's knee. She looked up at her sister for the next step. Mikia smiled, AJ really was going to do this.

"Well see this is the hard part."

AJ bent her head to one side, blinking at her sister.

"In what way?"

"Well, you have to try to get into Gohan's brain right. Well you try to move you body into it. Now this can hurt, you close your eyes and focus on Gohan. Feel your hand on his knee, try to become one with him. Do you understand?"

AJ shook her head.

AJ closed her eyes, and tried to focus. She really didn't know what she was doing. But she just had to focus on one thing, Gohan.

The first things she noticed that Gohan was very cold. She could live with that though, but the young boy started breathing really hard, which took her off guard. Gohan seemed to be in a lot of pain, what ever was happening to him. So she had to do this, for him.

She started thinking how cute Gohan was for one. His black hair, with that strong handsome face, and his eyes. She wanted those eyes to be normal, have some other form of feeling other then sadness and fear.

She started to feel a little funny, like her spirit was leaving her. Energy waves started to form around her as she was getting weaker and weaker. She knew it, she was getting into Gohan's mind.

Yet, a powerful shock hit her and she fell backwards. She got up, breathing hard, holding her hand on her chest. That really hurt, having her whole inner being thrown back into her body. She felt very hot.

"Are you okay AJ?"

AJ sat back up, trying to catch her breath as she look up at her sister.

"I'm fine."

AJ placed her hand back on Gohan's knee and tried again. She felt hotter then before, the energy wave formed around her body as her spirit was leaving her body, and entering Gohan's. She felt numb, not able to move from were she was, it was hard to breath. It was more like, she couldn't breathe at all.

It didn't stop her, all she thought about was Gohan's eyes. She didn't like looking into them, being lost within them. She wanted Gohan to be happy, not to look into those eyes and start to feel a sense of pity.

AJ slipped and was thrown back into her body. She hit the wall, breathing harder with the back of her hand bleeding.

"AJ stop! I don't want you…"

"SHUT UP! I know what I'm doing, don't worry."

AJ tried again, placing her hand in Gohan's now. Gohan moaned as he turned the other way. AJ knew that the demi-saiyan didn't or would ever want this to happen. But she felt like she had to, for him.

AJ closed hers and tighten the grip on her hand. The energy wave started to form again as AJ felt very hot. This time she was going to do it. This time she forced on her hand and Gohan's. His hand felt warm, she felt safe in them. Although Gohan wasn't awake, she felt like he would protect her. She stopped about getting inside of Gohan, but how his hand was touching hers.

She started to get a lot cooler, and all around her was black. AJ opened her eyes to find that she was all by herself.

"Mikia?"

AJ yelled but heard nothing, she started to walk, hearing her foot steps like she was stepping on broken glass.

"Gohan?"

The future queen started to walk forward, was this Gohan's dream? If so, she had a bad feeling that it was going to get worst.

You can never hide…

AJ shot up her head and turned around. That voice sounded creepy, very haunting, it whispered and was low. If this was Gohan's dream, she didn't blame him for waking up in a sweat.

From what you did…

AJ started to run, it seemed like it was turning into her nightmare. Her heart started to pound as the sound of broken glass rang in her ears. She tripped, hitting her face on the floor. Now it felt like glass, she could feel blood falling from her face.

"STOP IT!"

AJ turned her head to see Gohan running just as she was. He fell on his knees as he started to cry. AJ walked up to Gohan.

You must live with what you did…
Stop running…
Because there is no where you can go…

"NO!"

Gohan yelled as he started forming tears. AJ could do nothing but to look at him.

The voice started to laugh.

Now you must be haunted…
Forever…

The background changed into a lifeless place, only with rocks around it. There was a young boy smirking up ahead and a green bug-like man. AJ look behind her to find 7 people.

"Gohan we all know you have the power, it's time to use it."

AJ looked down at the 'older' Gohan before her, his eyes widen as he heard what the other man said.

The younger boy did nothing but smirk up at the green bug-man up at him. The bug man was growing his arm back. Once he did, the boy and the bug started fighting again. AJ didn't keep her eyes off the battle.

Gohan in the other hand, started running down to the battle. AJ couldn't move, all she could do was to watch helpless.

Gohan punched the bug man, only to find his hand going right threw it. Gohan's eyes widen as the bug man turned to him. Gohan fell over and looked up in horror. The bug man laughed.

"Don't bother, you can never run."

Gohan tried to run, but couldn't, he only crawled backwards.

"Cell…"

Gohan hissed as he tried to get up. Cell smirked as he bent his head to Gohan's level.

"Because of your foolishness, you will always be a failure. So stop trying."

Gohan lowed his head as tears started to form, Cell did nothing but laugh.

AJ tempter started to build. She started to run down until she was about 5 feet away from Cell and Gohan.

"How dare you say such things…"

But no one heard her as the sky got darker. Right in front of Gohan was the 2nd form of Cell blowing himself up. AJ looked in horror as Goku gave up his life to save his son over and over again. AJ looked down at Gohan, he couldn't hold in the tears, he was on the ground helpless. Cell stood up, laughing.

AJ couldn't help it and stood between Gohan and Cell.

"Don't get near him."

No one did anything, Cell went threw AJ and grabbed Gohan.

"Now you can go on like this forever."

Vanlash appeared behind Gohan and put the collar on him again. Cell threw Gohan on the ground as Vanlash kicked him. Gohan yelled in pain as blood started coming out of his month.

AJ sat threw, helpless as Cell and Vanlash beat on Gohan. AJ started to cry, she could do nothing. Yet again, she couldn't do anything. She tried to run from what was happening but she couldn't move.
