Chapter Twelve: Shin’s POV

Piccolo and I landed on the lookout; the look on his face was grim. I didn’t know why though. He looked around the lookout as he walked towards the building. I didn’t need special powers to know that he was going to drop the boys off in a room before looking around more. “Damn it Gohan answer me...” I jumped hearing him speak. For the life of me, I couldn’t understand why such a gentle, kind-hearted soul would ever give up heaven to be with this man when he was nothing but cold and distant to everyone around him.

“Perhaps they taking a vehicle up here and he simply fell asleep” I don’t know why I said it. Maybe I was hoping that it would keep the man calm till someone else could join us. Buu wasn’t the only creature I feared that could kill me; this man could as well if he truly felt like it.

“Maybe...you have something else on your mind, say it”

“I want to take Gohan with me to the Planet of the Kais for training so that he can defeat Buu.”

“Not happening. I already let you put my mate and child at risk once today Shin and that was one time too many. Find someone else to train because Gohan’s out of the question and don’t you dear think about talking to him behind my back about it.” I flinched at how cold his tone was. For a moment I thought he would kill me for even bringing it up. When nothing happened I looked up at him blinking. He had move to the door across the hall from where we laid the boys down. I watched him walk inside, leaving the door open.

Inside for the most part everything was dull, nothing personal within it besides one photo that sat on the window ledge. It was of Piccolo who was leaning against a tree with a pre-teen Gohan standing in front of him. A green arm draped over the boy’s right shoulder and across the boy’s chest to the other side of his body, where the green hand rested on the boy’s hip and side. Both held smirks on their face’s like they knew something no one else did. I watch Piccolo pick up the picture and sit on the large made bed.

“He’s fought so much in his life already Shin against some of the universes greatest villains as nothing more than a boy. Against all odds he survived his childhood. I didn’t care that I had to die once to save him...but you’re asking not only for him to fight which I know he wouldn’t hesitate to do to save this world that he and 16 love so much but to ask me to watch our child to start off the same way he did. I had a hard enough time watching him grow up like that; I won’t be able to handle it if our child has to start off the same way.”

I blinked looking at him. He didn’t sound angry or distant. No he was letting me see how much this was affecting him even by asking about it. I didn’t really know what that would be like to watch since I never really been in love but judging from the look he had, it’s worse than hell itself.

“Alright Piccolo... I won’t ask Gohan about it or bring it up unless there is no other way of stopping Buu.” I whispered. He got up, leaving the picture on the bed as he walked towards me.

“I hear a jet craft coming, the other’s will be here shortly. Let’s wait for them outside.” I nodded waiting in the hall for him to lead the way. Just as we got outside the craft landed and the first to step off the plane was Dende. I froze seeing him. The presence he gave off down on Earth was nothing compared to be presence he gave off here.

“I see you got back before we did... we would have been here sooner if Gohan teleported us but Krillen wouldn’t let him and to avoid arguments he knocked Gohan out...” I blinked looking up at Piccolo who walked towards the back of the craft. I looked to Dende for answers but he just shrugged, just as lost as I was about it.

“Relax I used the back of the neck to knock him out, you told him not to use his energy any more then he had to and teleporting us here wasn’t an emergency deal.”

“If he wakes up in a bad mood you’re dealing with it Krillen. I never said knock him out, pregnant or not.” I flinched at how cold that sounded. I didn’t know what to say about it.

“Piccolo, Take him to your room to rest, Krillen go get Mr. Popo from Kami’s gravesite, I have a feeling we’ll be needing his talents. The rest of us should think of some way to stop Buu now that he has awakened and without relying on Vegeta, Gohan and Goku.” I looked at Dende who took charge at the moment. Being a healer meant your got listened to by everyone since no one argued it. “I want the rest of you to start dinner, and cheek on the boys, Shin and I need to talk.” I blinked as he grabbed my wrist and dragged me off with him to the other side of the lookout.

We stopped, he let go of me and stood with his back to me and his fist clenched. He said nothing nor did he move. “You said we had something to talk about, I’m curious as to what that would be and yet you say nothing why?” he shock was clear before he even turned to look at me with a look of disbelief and shock.

“First you kiss me and wink at me, than you tell my brother that you’re forbidden to love. Which is it Shin? I’m not going to let you or anyone else trick me into falling in love with them when they can’t return it. So which is it? You can love or you can’t?” I sighed. I didn’t think I would have to answer that so soon.

“I can love but it’s against the rules at my level to be ‘in’ love. Out of all my years of being alive I only kissed one person and that was you Dende and most likely the only kiss I’ll ever give anyone till I die and after that.” I said leaning against the wall of the building. I was honest with him about it. I felt his anger subside. He truly was amazing with how pure his soul was. “I want to get to know you more, I like how true you are to yourself and yet, it is for that very reason why I can’t. Once Buu’s taken care of, you won’t hear from me again unless there is another threat to the galaxy that you’ll see me again. I’m not sticking around that much longer anyways...Just awaiting for Goku to join us then I’ll be heading back to my home world to oversee evacuation and defence plans.” Sadness and despair; that was what came off him in waves. I looked at him blinking. His head was hung and tears hit the tiled ground.

“Piccolo was right, gods are worse than demons. Demons show their true nature from the start, Gods don’t they only show what they want you to see...” that was the only thing he said before he walked away from me. He had sounded so crushed. I reached out to stop him from leaving but I couldn’t bring myself to raise my hand. My body wouldn’t respond to what my mind was telling it to do. I closed my eyes, trying to will myself to forget about the guardian of Earth but that simple kiss I gave him kept replaying over and over in my mind, haunting me.

After awhile I walked back over to the other to see that everyone had gathered minus the two young boys around Goku who must have just arrived. “I have a plan that just might work to stop Buu but no one is going to like it much... First off Piccolo I need your help training the boys how to fuse together into one form. It’s not permanent but it will increase their strength by using it. Secondly, Gohan, I know I asked a lot of you to against Cell but I need ask you to step up to the plate once more. I might not be here for the real fight to begin let alone finish but you will be and with Vegeta gone, you’re the only one with the strength left to fight. I know this is asking a lot from you rate now with you bring pregnant and all but on Shin’s home world there is a weapon call the z-sword and it’s rumored that it can stop anything in the universe if used by the right hands but no one have ever been able to draw it from its resting place. I believe that you are that person who can draw it from where it lays.”

I couldn’t believe my ears. Goku had just told everyone the plan I had promised Piccolo I wouldn’t use unless I had too. His growl confirmed that it wasn’t just me that he had the problem with but the plan itself. I looked over at Gohan and Piccolo when the growl suddenly ended. “I’ll do it dad, I know your trying to protect me Piccolo but nowhere in this universe is safe so long as he’s alive. At least in hell your power out classes his in every way but we’re not in hell now are we?” I was stunned speechless by that one. So was Piccolo from the look on his face. I think most us were. I never thought he could be so cavalier about all of this.

“Thank you Gohan...your truly are stronger than I could every be” Goku whispered hugging his son. I didn’t get what Goku meant. He was the strongest warrior in the whole universe, so how could Gohan be stronger? “You’ve already seen it for yourself Shin. Gohan don’t overdo it training... you won’t be the only one who’ll relies on that body and I’m not sure how the child will react to you pushing yourself to the point of passing out, like you did in the time chamber.”

“I won’t dad...Keep an eye on both of them. They like to pull pranks and they are very cleaver about it, don’t tell them about this yet okay... It’ll only distract Goten and we don’t need him distracted rate now.” Goku laughed stepping back from the boy.

“Come now Gohan we must be going.”

“You’ll get him in four hours, he’ll meet you at the check-in station” Piccolo said darkly before walking away. I wanted to reach out to stop him from leaving but the look Gohan shot at Goku and I about it, made it hard to stop it from happening.

“Very well, I’ll see you in four hours Gohan.” I said just as he vanished. Today was shaping up to be a longer day then it already was. Turning to leave I noticed Dende watching me again. I wanted to go over to him and make him smile one last time but then I was the one who hurt him. I smiled weakly at him before teleporting from Earth back to my home world. I walked towards the birthing trees and more importantly, to the tree that had birthed me. “Mother...I need your help... I meet this young guardian today. No matter where he is, nothing seems to faze him. I want to get to know him better but if I do that I risk falling for him. Gods aren’t suppose to have favorites and that’s what love would do. Yet I can’t just forget him. Mother what do I do?”
