Hey guys how's it going? Sorry it's taken so long to get the new chapter up but it happens. I'll probably be working on this a lot more over the next few months so expect chapters to be popping up frequently, but no promises. So from here on things are going to change and fast. Oh and not everything will be as in the show, some things that I cant exactly remember will be as I see fit. Sorry if I make a few mistakes.
Shelter from the Storm
"Let me go Krillin!" Gohan exclaimed. "I can still fight." Gohan struggled against Krillin's hold, his attempts were weak as he still had yet to recover his energy from his fight with the Android.
"I can't do that Gohan". Krillin said as he flew on to Roshi's island where he knew Goku had been taken. But the continuous struggle Gohan put up was making it harder by the minute, so when he saw the small island and house he released a sigh of content. He knew that if he couldn't keep Gohan under control then his mother could. They landed and Yamcha and Bulma, with baby Trunks in her arms, and Master Roshi all came out to meet them.
"What happened to Gohan?!" Bulma exclaimed when she saw his bruised face and torn up clothes.
"He fought the Androids, that is, after going Super Sayain." Krillin explained to his old friend, who looked surprised to learn of this new information. When Krillin scanned the faces of everyone else he saw the same look on each of them. "Vegeta saved him before he was almost killed." And at that Bulma smiled.
'I need to get my strength back and go after the Androids before they kill everyone.' Gohan thought to himself. Before he could say anything he saw his mother rush to him, pick him up and carried him inside. He was carried upstairs and placed on a cot opposite of his father. At this point he knew better than to argue with his mother after she had seen him but once he was set down she went back to attending his father.
Gohan kept his eyes trained on the ceiling, he couldn't look over and see his father in agony from the heart virus. He already saw it once, he couldn't do it again. Instead he just croaked out one question, "How is he doing?"
Chichi looked over at her son with a reassuring smile before replying the only way she could "The medicine is doing its job." With that she turned back towards Goku.
Gohan knew what was going on though. Even with the medicine people didn't always come back around. He knew it was all up to his father and how well he was looked after.
Bulma came in after some time and Gohan noticed that Trunks was not with her, she instead had bandages and other medical supplies. Kneeling down Bulma gave him a small smile before attending to his wounds. He let out a hiss of pain when she started on his face but then relaxed after he got used to the feeling. When Bulma had him cleaned up she placed a few bandages on him before leaving.
Gohan sighed and started to close his eyes for a little rest to replenish his stolen energy when he heard a few sniffs. He looked over to his mother and saw that she was crying. Gohan new this was not out of place as he had seen his mother cry when the heart virus had taken hold over his father the first time. But this seemed different. She wasn't crying because her husband was dying due to the fact he had a fighting chance, so the only reason could be him. Or most likely the both of them. She had her husband fighting a virus and a son who was hurt from fighting. Gohan sensed that this was just her way of dealing with it and if he said anything it might only make things worse. Gohan did the only thing he could do and reached out his hand for his mother's and took it in his hand and held on tight while she cried. He held on to her hand until he fell asleep from exhaustion.
