Chibi DBZ
Chapter Twelve
Turles rubbed his aching head, and looked over to Radditz who was lying flat on his stomach breathing heavily.
It had been a close call with the wild boar; if it had not been for the quick thinking of Radditz to attack the pig then they would defiantly have been added into the food chain.
Although both Saiyan's had been trained for battle, neither had ever been taught nor have had to catch their own food before… it was a steep learning curve for them both and yet they had accomplished it.
The boar was lying bloodied with a huge gaping hole through its side where a ki had blasted its skin. The smell of burnt pig clearly smelt quite appetising to the youngsters as they recovered from the fright.
Earth did have some big scary monsters after all, they were scarier than the beasts on Vegetaseii… giant tusked stampeding things….
"Boy am I glad I'm a space pirate." Turles chuckled, as Radditz flopped over and flickered his tail happily.
"Yeah training is so much easier than hunting." Radditz agreed as he growled and got up onto his feet in one jump.
The boys walked over to the huge dead boar, and kicked the carcass as if to check it was dead. When both were satisfied Turles grabbed his pointed ivory tusks, and Radditz its back legs and they took off into the sky.
Both looked so small compared to the monstrous sized flying boar carcass, to any onlookers it would have looked that the pig was flying on its own.
In just a few short seconds they arrived back at the tall tower that they had started.
Goku quickly looked to his friend and the Saiyan that looked really ill.
Bulma was stroking the young princes forehead and she suddenly looked much older to Goku, he sweat dropped when he saw the blood coming from the prince.
Being a Saiyan Goku could feel his friends power level fading fast, the prince's power level was now much lower than Bulmas and seemed to be dropping by the second.
"Bulma you need to stay away… I have some medicine in my pouch that can help Vegeta." Goku quickly said, as he bent down besides the Royal heir and began searching in his large pouch for his magical beans.
"You don't know any medicine…" Bulma said hopelessly, as she began to sob and look to the broken roof and twisted steel for help.
Goku was super strong, and he was also the nicest boy she had ever known. He was a true hero at the playgroup… the only thing was… Goku was not the brightest crayon in the box…
"This is a special bean given to me by a friend of my grandpas." Goku said as he continued to search through his large pouch.
He could feel some old peanuts he had been storing, and the yo yo that he was obsessed with. He even felt the sharp pin badge he had stolen from his older brother. He could not however feel the squashy little sensu bean.
Vegeta groaned, and coughed a little before his tail flickered as though it was his last breath.
Goku began to grow frantic as Bulma stroked the prince's tail to stop it from moving. It seemed to be working, as he relaxed and calmed down slightly.
Pulling out everything from his pouch he littered the dusty flooring with even more items.
A tiny fluffy bunny, a funny looking rubber and a strange balloon like object that he had stolen from master Roshis draw…. Goku could not read the Durex on the packet but it looked like a good water balloon.
"Don't die Geta…" Bulma pleaded as she began to cuddle the unconscious prince, she felt so sorry for him… he was going to pass away without any of his family in a dirty dusty restaurant on a completely different planet to his own.
He was a prince…
"I can't find it…" Goku said panicked, as he began to kick the things away that he had stored in his pocket.
Suddenly out of the corner of his eye, out of sheer luck the tiny green bean shone from the floor next to the iddy biddy toy bunny.
In a flash Goku seized it, and bent down with Bulma next to Vegeta.
The blue haired heiress looked to the bean, and then turned her nose up snobbishly. "Goku you clown, that's just a jelly bean."
Goku looked at the bean, and then back to the seriously injured Vegeta.
Gently lifting the prince into a sitting position he cradled him as he had seen his grandfather do before. "I don't know what it's called, I can't remember its name but it doesn't taste like a jelly bean no way. A funny talking cat gave it to me."
Goku slipped the tiny green bean into the princes mouth, and waited for him to swallow. If he was to weak Goku knew he would have to force him to eat the bean.
Bulma gasped, and then she sobbed as she watched the prince swallow the bean as Goku rubbed his neck helping the bean to go down.
Everything the Saiyan was doing now was instinctive, he did not see his grandfather rub the neck, and he had certainly not seen his grandfather holding a blue haired girl back with his tail.
Vegeta did not move, he remained as still as the rubble on the floor and for a brief second he looked to have stopped breathing all together. Was it too late for the young beaten prince…
"I told you it was just a jelly bean…" Bulma sobbed as she burst into tears seeing the dead prince.
It was a nightmare for her, a day that was going to scar her for the rest of her life… her one and only prince had been killed trying to protect her…. She had hardly even had time to get to know him….
Goku held his breath, he did not know what was taking so long. Could it be that he had done something wrong? Or perhaps it was too late and the prince really was too injured to recover.
Releasing his tail from around Bulmas waist, he let her scream out and cry out for her parents. Their was nothing he could do now… he had never seen a person die before and it wasn't very nice.
How was he to tell his planet that their prince had died, and gone to the land that nobody returned.
Disclaimer: I had to leave this chapter here… I just feel in a really mean mood to torture you all ;o) hehe.
Please do leave a review, I am sorry it has taken so long for me to update but I have been fighting writers block which is not very nice. That accumulated with the amount of work from college and work and well… you get the picture.
I had all these ideas, but then when I tried to write them it all looked wrong and stupid; and then my pc had a virus which was really nasty and I suddenly got my inspiration back! All of my reviews helped, I read through each one and then finally figured that maybe my writing didn't suck so much after all…
Update coming soon, I have already began writing the next chapter woohoo! Please do leave a review, it will mean so much to me and your almost guaranteed that it will help get my buttocks in gear and get the chapter up -
Many thanks
