Sunset

The match was set up; it started as the sun came to rest on the horizon; only minutes away from complete darkness. She walked up to me with her head held high. She knew the outlook of winning was slim. She knew more about me than most: my supposed unrivaled power, my abilities conquering those of my original hosts. She had set it all up and now she would suffer the consequences.

We made a pass at each other, her hair tickling my cheek as she passed. "How many do you have left?" She called rising a few feet from the ground.

"One," I called rising above her. "Three warriors accounted for. All Saiyans, go figure. Your lack of creativity astounds me. And for intelligence two Namekians again very creative, their species alone gives them credibility."

"You can find the top though." She laughed. "You'll never be complete."

I charged her, pushing her body into the ground. "You could always tell me who it is." I smiled at her pain. Her body was covered in the dust from our collision.

"Never," She pushed against me, but could not free herself. "I will not let you become a monster. I created you out of arrogance but now I know what you will become. Don't you see there is a reason none of the first attempts at the pyramid child was a success. You are not supposed to exist."

I loosened my grip, she was getting to me. I wouldn't let her get to me, I had to hold stronger than that.

"Oh, yes. Here they are." She pointed me to her computer. "It came up with some interesting solutions." She scrolled down the list of remaining DNA links in my system. "I have listed matches being Dende, Piccolo, maybe they're related that could be why I'm getting both, but I don't think so."

"Just tell me who else is there." I respond a little snappy.

"Okay, well, Dende, Piccolo, Chiaotzu, Krillin and the only female on the list is 18." My heart stopped at the name even though I knew it was coming.

I had Denda and Piccolo, Chiaotzu hadn't worked. Than means…

"It's Krillin." I whispered, "You knew it was Krillin that's why you don't want me near him. Are you protecting him or yourself?" I yelled pulling her up by her shirt and turning her to Krillin. "Tell him!"

As I released her she feel to the ground. "The only way to get the spell to work was to put someone special on the top of the pyramid. So you put what every child needs, Love, but you didn't have any yourself so you used Krillin." I called out for her.

She turned on me in a rage. "You were my mistake and I will destroy my mistake!" She came at me so fast. I should have seen it coming I had just revealed her ultimate secret and I hadn't foreseen revenge. She pulled her energy ruthlessly and shot me. The light filled my eyes and everything turned to a blur.

I fell to the ground and she picked me up again. My shoulder was numb where I had been shot my eyes seared with the pain of it.

Her fist caught me in the face and I could hear people moving about now.

I hit the ground again and I could her 18's screams at the warriors pulled her away. A pair of feet moved towards me. "I lost didn't I?" I called up to him.

"You put up a good fight," He knelled down to me.

I looked into the glassy eyes of Krillin, he was near tears. The truth he had wanted had taken its toll on his heart.

"You knew didn't you?" I spoke softly to him.

"I had my suspicion," he said looking to his wife behind me.

Suddenly his eyes grew wide and I felt the heat on my back.

I looked over my shoulder and saw my hair fall to my shoulder.

18 had taken her second of freedom and shot me in the back. The blast had cut my hair out of its bun and it fell ragged at my side.

I looked to Krillin and saw the tears as my head fell limp. I wanted to tell him not to cry but I couldn't move. My body seared with the pain almost as if it was running through me like a disease.

I could hear Goku screaming, Goten's crying sobs as he fell to his knees feet from my body. The other warriors had 18 now; they bound her to the ground.

Denda pulled her mind free. I could feel her leave consciousness and enter into a sleep that would only end with Denda's permission.

Krillin reached towards me pulling me into his arms. He cradled me like a child and stroked my hair. His eyes glossed with tears at what his wife had done. He had loved me, he was the reason I had lived at all much less with the pyramid in tacked. He held me tight as I fell into darkness. My surroundings left me. My hearing slowly left and I forgot all that was happening all that had consumed my innocent life.

But the evil that had consumed me could not be destroyed so easily. For as the sun set behind the horizon the moon was yet to show its face.
