Hold Back Your Farewell
Chapter 2: Where Can I Stab Myself In The Ears?
Vegeta had no idea how he got himself into this mess. This was far more evil than any villain he had ever faced before. An evil he could not vaporize. A monster he could not destroy. He stared down at the small tiny form before him.
His black eyebrow twitching with anxiety.
He felt sweat forming on his forehead. His heart racing in his chest.
The thing was small and pale with a wagging jet-black wolf pup tail swaying back and forth with joy. It was cooing as it chewed on his TV remote.
'You are a Sayjinn! And you are afraid of this small brat!?' his self-conscious screamed at him.
Vegeta grumbled as he stared at the baby lying on the couch below him. The baby Pan smiled up at the older Sayjinn showing her gums and showing her little baby teeth.
He leered at her with annoyance in his dark eyes as her grin widen almost ear to ear.
"For that idiot's spawn you are 'cute'…" he mumbled glad no one was around to hear him say that.
They would never let him hear the end of it.
Her messy jet-black hair stuck out in every direction (Fo: Think of baby Pan's hair in the 'DBZ' anime.).
Her black orbs were large and full of innocence.
Vegeta chuckled to himself at this.
He remembered that one of the Pans he had met came from a timeline where his home planet was not destroyed and she was insane.
He knelt down on the floor as he proceeded to pull down her baby pink pants.
He stopped when a rotten smell hit his nostrils.
He could hear the baby giggling with glee.
He glared at her, he felt like that tiny baby was mocking him.
The smell was so repulsive that he almost fainted right there and then.
The smell of baby digested formula (Fo: All you peeps who changed a baby's diaper know what I am talking about!) was all his Sayjinn nose could smell.
This would be the only time he wished he was not a Sayjinn. The smell of baby poop was the worse form of torture.
"Damn Kakarot's spawn!" Vegeta cursed loudly as he plugged his nose the best he can to stop him from smelling the odor.
"You sure Vegeta will be alright with all of the kids on his own Bulma?" Chi-Chi asked Bulma as she rested her chin in her hands.
Bulma blinked as she looked her friend. She smiled as she let out a sigh.
"He'll be fine!" Bulma exclaimed as she took a sip of her wine.
Bulma, Chi-Chi, Cabba, Eighteen, and Lunch decided to have a girl's night out. They were seated at a booth in a restaurant. Going through their menus. Raddtiz was going to watch his twins along with the Briefs and Sons.
However, Vegeta had managed to pissed Bulma off (Fo: No surprise there ^^ LOLZ!).
"I'm just not sure about leaving Pan for the evening…" she mumbled not speaking to anyone in particular.
Eighteen raised a blonde eyebrow to her. She had a feeling that Chi-Chi was not concerned with Vegeta watching her daughter.
"What do you mean?" the blonde-haired woman asked.
Chi-Chi let out a sigh. She has been worried about Pan for the longest time. Chi-Chi let out a sigh as she closed her eyes. Maybe she could get some advice.
"I don't know where to begin…" Chi-Chi breathed out as she opened her eyes.
The women stared at her waiting her for to continue.
"She seems she can't stay focused; always looking at something…" she explained.
Lunch leaned forward as she squinted her eyes at her friend.
"What do you mean?" she asked in her famous high pitched voice.
"Like yesterday evening…" she spoke with a tired tone in her voice telling them what happened.
-Flashback-
Little Pan was playing on the floor of the kitchen while mother washed the dishes. Chi-Chi smiled warmly as she listened to her daughter giggle and gabbed away with her baby talk.
Chi-Chi let out a chuckle when she glanced to the side and saw baby Pan holding her stuffed white cat with a pink bow around it's neck (Fo: Lol! I have the same stuffed animal on my dresser… Her name is Frisket ^^) high up it the air as baby talked.
Chi-Chi felt a small tiny breeze around her. She looked up at the kitchen window in front of her to see if she had left it open. She saw that it was closed and shrugged her shoulders and continued with her task. She felt something graze her cheek. She dropped the plate she was cleaning into the sink. She knew for a fact she felt a hand touch her cheek. It scared her as she brought up her trembling fingers to her cheek. She spun around in a panic grasping the end of the sink from behind shaking. She was taking in deep breaths as her eyes dancing around in her kitchen searching for an answer. She looked at her daughter and saw her reaching up with a big smile on her face almost as if she reaching up to someone.
"Pan?" she spoke with a shake in her voice.
She certain she felt others in the room. She could not see anyone, but her daughter surely did. Chi-Chi stared at the baby Pan giggling and reaching up at nothing.
"Goku!" The name that had left her tiny daughter's lips made Chi-Chi's heart skip a beat.
Not because it was her first word…
Chi-Chi felt fresh tears forming in her dark colored eyes. Chi-Chi ran to her daughter picking her up off the floor. She held Pan tightly to her chest as she ran out the kitchen. The raven haired mother could feel Pan wave her arm over her shoulder. She knew she was waving her hand to someone. Chi-Chi was in a panic. She knew Goku wasn't coming back.
She had never mentioned Goku to Pan…
There was no telling who or what Pan was interacting with.
-End of Flashback-
Chi-Chi thumbed her glass of water as she finished telling them what had happened.
The women stared at Chi-Chi in 'awe'.
"Sounds to me your little Pan has an imaginary friend," Bulma was the first one to speak.
Chi-Chi shook her head 'no' at what she said.
That didn't make since to her.
How could Pan know about Goku?
Bulma let out a sigh as she took her friends hands into hers.
"Chi… I know you miss Goku, we all do… Pan saying Goku's name doesn't mean he was there…" she explained to her with a soft voice.
Cabba nodded her head in agreement at Bulma what said.
"She could have heard his name from anyone of us. You have your hands full with Gohan, Goten, and Pan…" Cabba spoke logically to her sister in-law.
Chi-Chi let out a small sigh as she closed her eyes. She does have a lot to take care of. She is a single mother of three after all.
"Maybe I was just over worked," Chi-Chi said as she forced a small smile onto her face.
Bulma grinned and nodded her head with satisfaction.
"That's why we all are taking a break!" she quipped with a big smile.
Chi-Chi chuckled at this. She was right; she needed the small break from her kids. Nevertheless, she cannot stand being apart from the at the same time. She will see them again shortly; for now she was going to enjoy the night with her closets friends.
"EIN, STOP BITING GOTEN!" Vegeta screamed at little Ein as she gnawed on her cousin's leg.
Goten was crying so loud that it made Vegeta cover his ears.
"Goten! You are a Sayjinn! Act like one!" Vegeta scowled the small toddler.
However, that only made Goten cry even harder.
He managed to pull Ein off of Goten tucking her under his arm with her side on his hip.
She was fighting the older Sayjinn as she kicked her arms and legs trying to get to Goten.
From the corner of his dark colored eye, he almost had a heart attack at what he saw.
He saw Zwei and Trunks covering Bra with his wife's make up (Fo: True story! I swear! My little cousin Carter covered his little sister with red lipstick.).
"Dammit!" Vegeta swore loudly as he dropped Ein.
Ein smirked with a growl coming from her at Goten as she landed on the floor.
"Trunks! Zwei! You are male Sayjinns! You don't play with this!" he shouted at the two boys.
The two boys cocked their heads to the side as they blinked in confusion.
"Why not?" Trunks asked innocently.
Vegeta face palmed at this.
"When is that damn woman coming home!?" Vegeta groaned.
"Stupid brat!" Suuki screeched as she flung a small Ki blast at Sasuke.
Little Sasuke was flown back hitting his head against an end table. She hit him in the stomach; she could see that his grey sweater was burnt and his stomach was burnt. She was glaring at him. Suuki hated that child; just looking at that boy made her mad. Sasuke stood up with shaking legs clutching his stomach and lifted his head and let out a silent cry.
His dark eyes were tightly shut as his tears leaked out.
The pain he felt all over his body was unbearable.
"I've should have killed you the day you were born!" she snarled as she stalked towards him.
She picked him up by his dark locks. Suuki lifted him so that he was eye level with her. Suuki did not want this boy.
"You are so weak and pathetic!" she spitted at him as she backhanded him sending him across the room.
All she heard was a yelp when she saw him collide with the living room wall.
"Because of you… I have to live like this!" she screamed at him as she kicked him in the gut.
Sasuke did not dare to move.
He trembled as he stared at his bear.
He remembered the kind woman who came to see him a year ago.
He wished that woman took him with her.
But she didn't, and that made him so angry. It made him angry that no one saved him from his mother.
"Now… I'll end my misery…" she said softly as she lifted her hand in the air.
A Ki was forming in the palm of her hand as she smirked.
"If you harm that child I will tear your heart out!" came the voice of a woman.
Suuki didn't have a chance to turn around when she was hit in the face by a Ki blast. That Ki blast felt different; it was freezing like ice. She crawled back in her home through the hole on the side of her house. She was glaring at a woman clothed in white.
"Who the hell are you!?" Suuki demanded to know.
"Snow…" she answered as she stared at Suuki with disgust in her eyes.
"Did you do that to my son!?" Suuki hissed as she pointed to Sasuke's cat tail.
Snow did not take her blue eyes off of the Sayjinn woman.
"I should not have interfered-" Snow was interrupted by Suuki laughing.
"You got that right!" she chuckled as she stood up straight.
Suuki wanted to kill that woman.
"However! As a mother I could not and will not stand idly by!" Snow said as she lifted her head up high.
Snow knew she couldn't kill Suuki; she couldn't risk this timeline. Even if it was killing her seeing Suuki abuse Sasuke.
"Do you know what I am!?" Suuki hissed as she glared at Snow.
Snow squinted her eyes at Suuki. Snow knew what Suuki was; Suuki was a Sayjinn.
"Yes," she answered not once taking her gaze off of Suuki.
"Then you know I'm going to fuck you up!" Suuki snarled as she charged at Snow in a fury.
Snow was not fazed she stood her ground as she watched Suuki throw a punch at her face. Suuki gasped when her fist did not make contact. Instead, Snow vanished only leaving behind small snowflakes. Suuki felt her left arm being yanked behind her and was thrown against the front door breaking it off its hinges. Suuki growled as she stood back up. There was Snow standing in front of her.
Her eyes widened when she heard Snow howled and felt an icy Ki blast to her chest sending her backwards out to her front lawn.
She landed with a sicken thud on her stomach. Suuki turned on her hip; her dark eyes were wide with fear. She had never seen such power.
"What the hell are you?" Suuki asked in a shaky voice.
Snow knelt down and pulled her black hair from the back of her head. She yanked Suuki's head back as she glared daggers at the Sayjinn woman. Suuki wanted to destroy this woman, but she knew she would not win this fight. Snow was far stronger than she was.
"Tessacain… Your son is one as well," Snow answered in a cold voice; Suuki's eyes widened even more at her words.
She felt her stomach in knots. She couldn't believe it.
"You are…. Ancient One?" she muttered out as she shook.
Snow nodded her head as she released Suuki.
"My sons will come for the boy in five years… I trust you will not stand in their way," Snow said as she stood up.
Suuki did not dare to move as she stared at Snow.
However, Suuki could not still her tongue.
"Why not take the worthless shit with you now!?" she hissed out with venom.
Snow shook her head with a small sigh.
"It is a risk I cannot allow; he must remain here for that time…" Snow said with a heavy heart.
She then disappeared into thin air leaving nothing but small snowflakes.
Vegeta sighed real loud as he held little Pan in his arms on the sofa. She was the only one awake. She was giggling and reaching in the air. Vegeta rolled his eyes; he wanted her to go to sleep.
He then felt something wet on his nose.
He opened his onyx eyes and saw that in was snowing small snowflakes above him and Pan.
He raised his eyebrow at the snow falling.
He lifted her up from under her armpits so she was eye level with him.
"Are you doing this?" he asked he knowing that he wouldn't be getting from her.
Her hand slapped his forehead; he was shocked to feel how cold her hands were.
He took her hand and started to stare at them.
Pan's hands were so cold to his touch; he glanced up to look at her face and she did not look like she was bothered by it.
He squinted his eyes at her tiny hands; he saw tiny snowflake designs on her hands.
They blended in with her skin. Vegeta knew about the Tessacains, but he would never have expected anything like this.
He did not know whether to tell Chi-Chi about this.
He knew Chi-Chi already has enough to deal with.
Pan's little snow display was not too much of a big deal.
Vegeta made up his mind; he wasn't going to say anything about it. Vegeta let out a sigh; he wasn't going to worry Chi-Chi about it.
He let out a sigh as he patted her head.
He heard her giggle; he even let himself smile with a 'huff'.
"This will be our little secret…" he spoke with a smirk on his face as he bounced her on his knee.
Then he heard a tiny yawn; he let out a sigh.
He slumped back into the sofa laying his legs across as he placed the tired baby Pan on his chest.
He felt her grip his shirt with her tiny baby hands.
Maybe he could get some sleep himself.
In a vacant white room were Goku and Ikea. This was their second meeting. The first meeting was when she took Goku to see Chi-Chi and Pan.
"Goku, I took a risk letting you see your daughter…" came the soft voice of Ikea (Fo: If you read my fic 'Wolf Howling At The Moon' you'll know who she is.); Goku gave her a sad smile with a nod of his head.
He was so happy he got to see his daughter for the first time.
Goku wanted to see both of his sons, but he knew that was not going to be possible.
"I know… And I am real grateful… I thought you said no one would be able to see us…" Goku said as he scratched the back of his head with wide eyes.
Ikea let out a small sigh as she shook her.
"Children see beyond sight," she explained.
Goku nodded his head still unsure of Ikea's explanation. Ikea noticed it and ran a hand through her white hair.
"Children see with their innocence… Even we don't understand fully," she spoke, she saw that Goku was nodding his head to her words.
He was so amazed with the abilities of the Tessa people.
He never seen such power before.
"Ikea…" he said with a meek voice.
He wanted to know what she told him before seeing baby Pan and Chi-Chi that day was true.
Ikea knew what he was trying to ask her; it was written all over his face. She smiled warmly at him.
"Goku… You will live again…"
Chi-Chi, Cabba, and Bulma made there way through the front door quietly as they can be. They were nervous to see the state of the house. Vegeta was not known for babysitting a group of small children. Eighteen and Lunch already went home from the restaurant. The three women could not wait to see their children. Bulma grabbed both of their arms stopping them in their tracks.
"Look!" she said to them as she jerked her head to Vegeta sleeping on the couch with a sleeping Pan on his chest.
Cabba let on an 'awe' and Chi-Chi smiled real wide as they stared at a sleeping Vegeta with a sleeping Pan on his chest.
"Should we even wake them?" Cabba asked softly; she really didn't want to wake any of them as she glanced down at her two children sleeping so comfortable on the reclining chair.
Trunks was lying on the floor with Goten in front of the TV wrapped in a big blanket. In addition, Bra was asleep on the love seat. Bulma smiled as she turned to the two women. She was so proud of her husband that all the kids were still breathing and the fact that Vegeta was still breathing.
"They can all stay the night," Bulma suggested.
Chi-Chi shook her head 'no'.
"Bulma it is alright Goten and Pan will go straight back to sleep in the car," Chi-Chi said softly.
Bulma grumbled as she put her hands on her hips. She knew what Chi-Chi was thinking. She was thinking she didn't want to be a bother to Bulma and Vegeta.
Bulma was not going to take 'no' for an answer.
The two women knew there was no arguing with Bulma when she made her mind up.
"It's fine Chi! I'll call you both if anything happens," she said not letting neither one of them saying a word as she pushed Cabba and Chi-Chi to the front door.
"Bulma?" Cabba spoke up as she stared at Bulma.
"It's fine! Go home and enjoy a full night's sleep!" she smiled warmly to the other two women.
She assured them everything would be okay. She let out a sigh as she shut the door behind her. She smiled as she walked over to the sofa. Bulma grabbed the blanket from the back of the couch and laid it over Vegeta and Pan. She was not going to wake Vegeta up. He looked too comfortable to wake him.
-5 Years Later-
"Get out of my way you stupid shit!" Suuki hissed as she backhanded Sasuke.
He yelped as he dropped to the ground.
He glared at his mother.
Sasuke wished he were stronger; he wanted to defend himself against her abuse.
He was now 6 years old and her abuse still continued.
His body became numb to the pain he endured for these years.
He had hardened himself, he had too.
If he showed any weakness to her that meant she had won. Sasuke had built a wall around him.
He trusted no one and he let no one in.
He had became a loner; he had no friends.
Sasuke became void of any emotions over the years.
He sat up on the kitchen floor as he watched his mother leave the room for the living room.
Then suddenly he felt a gush of cold air.
He gasped when he saw snowflakes.
"Sasuke…" came a male voice.
Sasuke's eyes widened as she jumped up whipping his head around to find whom the voice it belonged to. There he saw two young men.
They were twins…
They were pale with grayish hair with streaks of brown in it, their hair was slicked back, their eyes were a bright blue, they were wearing leather vest, with white fur cloaks, white form fitting silk pants, leather boots that came up to their knees, they hand silk white cloths wrapped on their arms, and they hand a braid that hung on their right side of their face. One thing that Sasuke noticed the most was their swinging wolf looking tail that matched the hair on their head.
"Who are you?" Sasuke asked in a monotone as he glared daggers at the two.
"Lucas… And this is my brother Viktor…" he answered him with a slight smile on his face.
Sasuke growled slightly as he continued to glare at the to.
He was not trusting the two.
"I know you don't trust us, but we do have to take you," Viktor spoke up.
Sasuke growled even louder.
He was mad…
"I'm not going with you!" he hissed at the twins.
The two looked at each other and nodded their heads to each other. They both knew this wasn't going to be easy.
"You want to be stronger?" Viktor asked, he knew that Sasuke wanted to be stronger.
It was so obvious; anyone could see that. Viktor smirked when he heard a small gasp from Sasuke. Viktor knew that Sasuke wanted to be stronger. After Snow left Suuki there on the ground five years ago she had Viktor and Lucas watch him.
He saw the hunger in Sasuke's eyes over the years; he wanted power.
"We can make you stronger… And there are others that can also make you stronger," Viktor said baiting him to leave with them.
Sasuke grunted as he shook his head.
"How!? You are not Sayjinns!" Sasuke yelled at the two as his cat tail twitched in anger.
"True… However, you are also half Tessacain and we are Tessacains," Lucas explained as he took a step forward.
"Where we are going… There are other Sayjinns," Viktor spoke as he crossed his arms.
Sasuke's dark eyes widened at Viktor's words. Only other Sayjinn he met was his own mother. Moreover, she wasn't going to train him.
"How do you know that?" Sasuke asked him as he arched his brow.
He still did not trust them.
However, they said that they would make him stronger.
That is all he wanted in life. To be the strongest so no one could ever hurt him again.
"We will tell you one day, but you need to come with us," he said.
Sasuke nodded his head as he made his way to the twins.
He wanted to know more.
He needed to know more.
Sasuke knew he would not become stronger here.
He knew he wouldn't survive another year living here on this planet with his mother.
However, those two…
He had a chance to become stronger.
This was his only chance.
He didn't like taking any risk.
He always had a plan.
Even his plans had a plan.
He stared at the two thinking it over one more time.
He for sure knew this…
They were his best chance. They were a means to an end.
He sighed he had made his decision.
"Where will we go?" he asked; the two looked at each other with a smirk.
Viktor took a step forward.
He was glad that he decided to leave with him and his brother.
Even though it was for told.
"Earth…"
