I am so sorry! I didn't think it would take this long to update this story.
I wrote it a long time ago, I just couldn't post it. Well, I really have
nothing to say. There was one reviewer who said my story was good, but they
were dissing everything about it. Plus they got the facts wrong, so all I'm
going to say is read the freaking story again!
Enjoy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hidden Bars
The Scar
Mikia sighed deeply as Gohan was turning and twisting in his sleep. What was going on in there? Mikia wanted to know so badly that she was thinking about joining her sister into his dream. But she held herself back, AJ will tell her everything once she came out.
Mikia walked up to AJ and sat next to her. She yawned, looking down at her watch, it was 10:30, past her bed time. She felt herself trying to fall asleep, but shot back up. She wanted to know what was going on with her caretaker, even if it took the whole night.
~~~~~~~~~
Just then, the dreamed faded and there was nothing but blackness. Gohan sat there, starting into nothing, like he was getting another flashback. AJ fell to the ground, not wanting to get up.
Then, another dream came up. It was in a nice forest outside a round little house. It seemed so peaceful there, a little boy with wild hair like Gohan's was running around. He had dark peaceful eyes, and the biggest smile anyone could ever make. He was screaming at everything around him, touching everything he could. Even the sky, he started flying up to the trees, laughing so innocently.
AJ turned her head and looked at Gohan. He wasn't even watching the little boy. AJ felt though, that Gohan knew what was going on.
A woman came out, sitting down on the ground, watching the little boy playing. She was wearing Japanese looking clothing with dark long black hair. She had dark, sadden eyes, and her face looked depressed. Gohan shot is head up, and looking at the woman. She seemed to be crying. AJ could tell that the dark hair woman was trying to hide it.
A man walked out of the house, looking just like the little boy. Yet though he had innocent eyes and looking peaceful, the princess knew that he was hiding some sadness in them. AJ looked at Gohan, his eyes widen. Now that she thought about it, he looked just like Goku from the files.
"What's wrong Chi-chi?"
Chi-chi shot her head up and looked up at her husband.
"Nothing."
Goku sat down next to Chi-chi, putting his hand on her shoulder.
"What?"
Chi-chi took a deep breath.
"He never played like that, why is that?"
Goku sighed, looking down at the ground. He knew who this was going to be about. He took his hand off her shoulder and on her knee.
"Chi-chi, we got to stop living in the past. I know that you miss Gohan."
Chi-chi shot her head and looked up at Goku. Her eyes looked up at Goku's as tears started to form.
"You don't understand though. The way I treated him."
"Chi, Gohan loved you very much."
"NO! You didn't make him feel like crap, you never hit him, you never called him worthless, you never thought about his trust, you never."
Gohan shut his eyes and looked away. Kami he hated this, why not just kill him now. It was slowly killing him inside. AJ looked over at the little boy, who wasn't listening to what his parents were talking about. Thank goodness for that.
"Got in fights, you never let him grow up to fast, you didn't force him to grow up. You never did that Goku. It was all me.all me.I failed my son."
Chi-chi looked away from Goku, and looked at right Gohan, or rather, right threw him.
"I'm sorry.I'm sorry."
Goku couldn't take this any more, he pulled his wife to him, holding her as she cried. Whispering in her ear, but all that Gohan or AJ could hear was.
"My son is gone.My son is gone."
AJ couldn't take it any more and slipped.
~~~~~~~~~
AJ's body hit the wall, she got up shaking. Mikia ran up to her sister, helping her up.
"What happened?"
AJ looked over at Gohan, trying to understand him, but couldn't. Just then, he was starting to wake up.
"Shit, we got to hide."
AJ took her sister's hand and dragged her into the closet. Just then, Gohan shot his head up, looking around. It seems that he forgot where he was for a minute. He got off the couch, walked up to the window, and opened it. The cold air hit his face as tears started forming. Gohan placed his hands on the window frame and lowered his head.
Mikia wanted to walk up to Gohan, but AJ pushed her back. They both stared at Gohan as he lowered his head to his arms. His head lying in there, he didn't seem to be crying now.
Gohan sighed, letting his tail hang lose from his waist. Gohan didn't know how hard it was to keep his tail there. The young saiyan just wasn't use to having his tail like that all day long. It was a lot better just having it hang there.
Gohan looked up in the sky, there seemed to be three moons, not one of them full, thank Kami. He didn't want to kill any one, not any more. Gohan looked down at the scar on his wrist, it felt so good before he did it, thinking about that seemed like the best way to solve all his problems. To bad he failed, even at taking his own life.
~~~~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~~~~~
He hated it, he just wanted it to end. There was no point in living yourself if you are going on killing people. 15 year old Gohan stared into space. He was beaten up by Vanlash, badly. It even hurt to move. Gohan's tears fell from his eyes as he took all his strength he had walked over to his pillow and sat down. He moved the pillow, there was a hole, of all things he could collect from all the planets he had destroyed. Gohan reached down to find a knife, he looked at it.
Gohan smiled as he moved the knife to his wrist. Why go through this hellhole if you can just got to hell itself? It has to be better then this life.
*I'm sorry I failed you, I failed you all. Now I can burn in hell like all devils do. *
That is when he did it, he took the knife and slit his wrist.
Dark red blood came out of his wrist. It hurt so bad, like nothing he had ever felt before. Gohan held his arm as he was around his own blood. His own sick blood. He hated this, why did he cut himself? Why couldn't the slave be strong enough to even live? This was shameful, he shouldn't die like this, he shouldn't have the choice to die, the people he killed never did.
"What the fuck?.GOHAN!"
Gohan heard a voice, but he couldn't look up, nor could he even see. He was going in and out of his own life. Gohan started coughing as cold hands picked him up and started running.
"What the hell is wrong with you boy?"
Gohan coughed out blood, the man that was carrying him hissed, running into a room.
"What happened Tomack?"
Vanlash asked, running up to him and Gohan. Rexter and Weller looked over with widen eyes.
"He tried to kill himself."
Rexter laughed.
"That would be my guess. Every slave does that."
Vanlash picked up Gohan.
"Well, that isn't going to happen."
Vanlash put Gohan down on the ground, wrapping his wrist around in a cloth. Gohan coughed up more blood.
He just wanted to die, he already slit his wrist. So why can't he just die? Gohan played that over and over again in his mind. He felt tears coming, yet he bit his lip and held them back. Gohan couldn't see what was going on, but he could barely hear what they were saying.
"A little shit you are kid. You can never run."
Vanlash sighed, picking up Gohan and putting him into the recovery tank.
"Your going to get one hell of a beating after this."
Gohan opened on of his eyes and stared at Vanlash, he was just a blur, before passing out.
~~~~~~~End of Flashback~~~~~~
Gohan started breathing hard, remembering every minute that day. Every time is crossed his mind, he would feel that same pain again. AJ started walking up to Gohan. Mikia tried to hold her back but it didn't work.
She started walking slowly, not wanting to scare Gohan. Her heart was beating really fast every step she took.
"Gohan?"
AJ put her hand on Gohan, but nothing happed. She looked down at Gohan and moved his arm away from his face to find that he was asleep. With one little tear in his eye.
"Mikia, come over here."
Mikia ran up to AJ to find that Gohan was asleep.
"What should we do?"
AJ asked, picking up Gohan and holding him close to her. Mikia sighed, walking up to Gohan's energy bed.
"Just put him in bed."
AJ sighed, walking up to the energy bed and turned it on. She put Gohan down and moved his bangs out of his face. Mikia walked up to her sister, grabbing her hand. AJ looked down at her sister.
"What happened."
"All I can say that it was sickening."
Mikia sighed, living her sister side and started walking out of the room. She turned and looked at her sister.
"Just tell me when you are ready."
And with that, Mikia walked back to her room. AJ turned back to Gohan, poor soul never looked peaceful.
She had to recall to the dreams. Maybe it will help her understand Gohan more after seeing his dreams.
The first dream, the one with Cell and Vanlash. It seems that these two people haunted him the most. She understood how the saiyan Goku died, but the question was why didn't he return when he had the chance?
Some how, that battle scared Gohan the most, it was like, that battle taking his innocents, or what was left of it.
Then the part with Vanlash. It seemed like he just made Gohan into this scared creature.
Putting the collar back on Gohan also was a sign. It seems like that was Gohan's worst fear.
The beating must be of both what happened to him physically and mentally. That not matter what, they were always betting him.
AJ then recalled that she couldn't help Gohan. It could be that Gohan was so lost within himself, that he thinks that no one could help him.
*Your just one hell of a puzzle aren't you? *
But yet, that 2nd dream seemed to get him the most. But why would he dream of something like that? Gohan didn't seem like the kid who would want people crying over him like that. So him dreaming something like that like the last dream was out of the question.
Was it, that he saw what was happening on his planet? That Gohan had some form of power that made him see how is family is without him? This was getting too weird.
AJ felt she was getting wet on her face. She touched her check to find it wet and licked it, it was salty. She hissed at herself, balling her fist. She was crying.
She couldn't help it, she was shaking like mad. AJ bit her bottom lip as more tears fell from her stern face.
AJ looked down at her scar on her wrist, before bursting into a fit. She threw her hands up to her face and cried. She couldn't stop, nor she didn't even know why she started.
The princess wrapped her arms around her self as more tears fell from her face. She felt so alone, she felt so much as a bother, she felt so hated. No one cared about her problems.
Yet she was the princess, plus she was strong. How can she cry? When has Audrajoxie ever cried? Although many would think she doesn't, she does. All the time. She wasn't strong, she was weak. She drilled that in her mind that not matter what everyone said, she wouldn't believe it.
Although she knew, she couldn't compare to Gohan. Yet, she couldn't help feeling pity for herself.
She closed her eyes as more tears fell, but it seemed, that right when she closed her eyes, she fell asleep. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That's about it, hope you enjoyed and please review.
