Chapter 15
~*~*~*~
I Guess I Need You Baby
Bra woke up early next morning to find herself in an empty bed. It was around 5 a.m. The sun hadn’t even come up yet. She sat up and rubbed the sleep from her eyes thinking 17 woke up early and was outside training or making something to eat.
She stood up, wrapped the bed sheet around her and walked downstairs totally unaware that a white sheet of writing paper had fallen off the bed to the ground. She found nothing downstairs nor outside. He was gone…
Bra stumbled back upstairs and sat on the corner of the bed. She put her hand on her head and started breathing heavily.
“He probably just went out to get something…” She said chuckling lightly. “He wouldn’t jusave ave without telling me…not…not after what happened last night. Just get up and leave me…”
She threw herself down on the bed, letting her hair flow over the side. “He left…” She said, gripping the sheets. “HE LEFT!”
She let herself side off the mattress to the floor. “No…” She whimpered as tears filled her eyes. “He promised…”
She laid on the bedroom floor for quit sometime sobbing before she noticed the paper laying not more then 5 feet in front of her. She lifted her head, wiping her eyes and crawled over to it. She was confused, opening the letter. Her heart filled with relief and worry at the same time realizing it was from 17.
Dearest Bra,
I never meant to hurt you by leaving, but it’s the only way I can keep myself from hurting you physically. There are many things I haven’t told you because I’m afraid. Afraid that you you’ll be frightened and not understand. I couldn’t bare that. Having you fear me.
I’ve decided to turn myself in. There’s no other way. I’m not going to ruin your life by keeping you in the dark and on the run like me. It’s the life style I’ve chosen and it’s not fair to you. You deserve someone so much better. I have nothing to give you other then my love and that’s not good enough.
I just hope you won’t look back and hate me after you’ve found someone and have a family…saying this is killing me, but it’s what has to be done. Do Not come looking for me. There’s no stopping me.
I can’t express the way I feel for you, it would only cause more pain, which is the last thing I want. Now, I will say good-bye.
With love,
Juunanagou
She crumpled the letter, letting it fall to the floor as heavy streams of salty tears fell, stinging her crimson cheeks.
“He can’t…daddy will kill him!” She yelled, getting to her feet. She dropped the sheet and grabbed her clothes, putting them on as fast as she could without knocking herself over. She ran downstairs as fast as she could, hopping out the door pulling her boots over her feet.
“I’ll never forgive myself if anything happens to him!”
It didn’t matter if he told her not to come looking for him. He could be mad all he wanted, she didn’t care. She wasn’t going to sit there and let him commit suicide! She didn’t want another man or someone else’s family.
********
It felt as if there were 90-pound weights strapped to 17’s ankles as he made his way closer to the city. He stopped, looking back to the forest with a sigh, wishing he could turn back. The thought of death isn’t what made him want to turn back…it was leaving her.
In fact, death didn’t sound to bad if living meant never seeing her beautiful face again. Never hearing her laugh or feel her soft touch. A life without her was unlivable. Before her he had nothing in his life worth living for. Now he lived to love her and he couldn’t even do that right.
He promised himself he wouldn’t go down without a fight, however. If Vegeta was going to kill him he’d make him work for it and maybe take a few out with him. If Bra was going to be left in this world without him he wanted her to hate him. That way she wouldn’t be heart broken over his death.
He didn’t want her crying and not wanting to go on. It would be better if she hated him. Maybe she could move on and have a better life then the one he could give her. She is so special. He couldn’t bare the thoughtbit bit of him was dying every second he was away from her, but it would all be over soon.
He turned back to the city and levitated into the air. He sighed regretting at what he was about to do next and raised an open palm into the air at a few buildings. He put his head down and shook his head slowly.
“You want to kill me, VEGETA! Well, here I am! COME AND GET ME!” He shouted, firing a deadly blast into the buildings. The ground shook wildly as the two buildings slammed together and crashed to the ground in a mass heap of dust, fire, and rubble.
17 suddenly lifted his head as a sinister smile crossed his face. His eyes darkened as his lips stretched ear to ear. He liked that. Blowing the buildings apart, knowing he had just killed innocent people with no cause what so ever.
He felt empowered. Something he hadn’t felt in a long time. He lifted his hands out in front of him and closed them into fists. He had almost forgotten how it felt, holding someone’s life in the palm of your hand. Being able to crush their entire existence if he felt like it. It was exhilarating!
He chuckled feeling Vegeta and Z Fighter’s energies growing near. They were responding quicker then he thought they would. Then again, they were probably still on the look out for him. 18 had her little say in it, making him seem like some murdering animal…never calmed he wasn’t, at least not to them.
Vegeta and the others stopped not more then 15 feet away from the android. Goku gave Vegeta a questioning look that he understood.
“Thought you said you changed, 17. Was it all a lie?” Goku asked, calmly.
He chuckled sinisterly. “It wasn’t a lie. I didn’t purposely kill all those people in all those cities, but,” He said, turning around as they hovered over the rubble. “That,” He said, pointing. “I meant to do.”
Goku balled his hands into fists. “There we’re people in those buildings.”
“Oh, I know.” 17 replied coldly. “I’ve got everything worked out you see. You kill me and the pain stops…no more running…no more hiding. Vegeta gets his little girl back and I’m left with nothing, but death.
He suddenly turned to Vegeta. “You know she loves me.” He said almost chuckling again.
“Don’t you speak of her, android!” Vegeta shouted, powering up.
17 figured the only way to get Vegeta mad enough to kill him was to take a low blow and hit him where it hurt even if that meant saying something demeaning about Bra.
“Hey, calm down.” He said crossing his arms. “I’m trying to give her a complement. She was a damn good lay, but nothing else. Just like her mother I suppose…”
The words he spoke tore him apart, but it had to be done. By the looks of the bulging vein in Vegeta’s forehead, he knew he’d done it. He spoke ill mannerly of both Vegeta’s daughter and wife. Vegeta would surely do more then just kill him…overkill! More like it.
Vegeta yelled as his hair burst yellow going Super Saiyan. He clenched his fists locking his aqua eyes on 17.
“Vegeta!” Goku shouted, stepping in front of him. “We had a deal!”
“Get out of MY way, Kakarrot! Which would you rather have? Me fighting him or you!”
Goku sighed, glancing over at Trunks and Gohan. “Alright, Vegeta, I’ll move, but only because he’s killed so many people. Don’t over do it.”
Vegeta smirked as Goku moved to the side. “I never over do anything!”
17 readied himself by powering up. A purple energy field formed around him as Vegeta advanced towards him.
“I’m going to rip you apart, android!” Vegeta shouted, landing a punch in 17’s stomach sending him flying into the bushes.
He hit the ground hard, shaking his head. “Oh man, that one hurt.” He said, holding his side. There was blood coming from the first wound Vegeta had given him. “Shit…he’s reopened it. I may be an easier kill then I first thought.”
17 got to his feet dodging a punch as Vegeta lunged for him. He took off into the air, Vegeta not far behind. It started raining making it hard for 17 to see. He could make out where the others we’re standing, but Vegeta was nowhere to be seen. He didn’t have to wait long, however.
17 took a strong blow to the face as Vegeta appeared in front of him. He went head first into a near by tree.
“Come on, android! Your sister could put up a better fight then you!” Vegeta shouted, chuckling triumphantly.
17 pulled himself from the tree, coughing up blood into his hand. “You can’t he just kill me?” He asked himself quietly. “Please, just let me die…”
“What is it you’re saying down there? Praying to Dende to spare your life? Ha! Fat chance, android!”
He couldn’t take much more of this. If only he had waited a little longer to heal fully, he might have had a better chance.
17 got to his feet again and looked up at his attacker. “I’m not going to let you off that easy, Vegeta! You wanna kill me, you’re going to have to work for it!”
Vegeta laughed evilly. “My pleasure! I don’t want to kill you off the bat anyway! I’m going to make you suffer for touching my daughter!”
Vegeta tackled 17, pile driving him into the ground, leaving behind a giant hole. He sat over him, punching him repeatedly in the face before 17 conjured up enough power to blow Vegeta off of him.
Vegeta flew out of the hole stopping up by Goku and the others. 17 came out of the hole after him, spitting blood from his mouth. He cracked his neck and looked up at Vegeta, his eyes beginning to glow red.
“Is that all you got, old man?” He asked, chuckling.
Vegeta’s face turned bright red. “How dare you mock me!” He shouted, flying towards him, but he was ready this time.
17 flipped around and kicked Vegeta in the face sending him flying passed the Z Fighters into a building.
“Didn’t think I’d go without a fight!” 17 growled. “Maybe I’ll just kill you and forget about ending my own life. It’s just so much fun killing people.”
Vegeta blasted out of the rubble ready to hit 17, but he ducked leaving Vegeta with nothing, but air. 17 smirked and grabbed Vegeta’s leg. “Ring around the rosy!”
“Pocket full of posies!” He shouted, swinging Vegeta in the air.
“Ashes, ashes, we all fall DOWN!”
17 slammed him into the side of some buildings and let him go. Vegeta made a giant crater on impacted. Trunks came forwards wanting to help his father, but Goku held him back.
“No, Trunks. Vegeta got himself into this and will have to get himself out.”
“Right.” Trunks replied, putting his head down. Why did his father always have to be so cocky?
“I guess I’ll end this, Saiyan! I’ve been saving a very special move just for you. Even a powerful Saiyan as yourself won’t be able to survive its force!” 17 snickered, lifting both hands over his head. A giant beam of light, shooting straight into space came from his hands. Everything started shaking as he controlled his large amount of energy.
Bra was running through the bushes as trees when the ground stared shaking. She fell to the side, grabbing on to a tree branch.
“17...” She whispered ducking her head to avoid falling branches as she took off running again.
The beam of light suddenly turned into a ball bigger then the Spirit Bomb. If it matched the Spirit Bombs power…they were about to find out.
“Say good-bye, Saiyan!” 17 shouted, ready to annihilated Vegeta.
“17 no!” Bra cried, running into the open.
17 turned his head to her roughly. “Bra…” He said softly, his evil smirk changing to a tender smile. “I told you to say away.”
Bra put her hands into the air beckoning him to come to her. “Come here, 17.” She said, lovingly.
His eyes changed from red to blue as the ball of energy slowly shrunk to nothing. He put his hands down and floated down to her. She closed her arms around him, holding him tight.
“You can run from me.” She whispered in his ear.
17 shivered. Being in her arms was the greatest feeling in the world. Life without her was defiantly not worth living.
Bra pulled back, looking into his eyes. “We can beat this. It doesn‘t have to be this way. We can be together.”
17 smiled, his heart soaring as he covered her lips with his own.
So, there they were…standing in the rain, holding one another as the Z Fighters watched in confusion and an angry Saiyan Prince regained his stamina.
Vegeta busted out of the rubble, heading for the preoccupied 17. Goku shot out in front of him yet again.
“Vegeta, wait!” He shouted.
“What is it now, CLOWN!”
“Bra’s down there!” Goku shouted angrily. All the clown bits were beginning to make him mad.
“Wh-what?” Vegeta asked as his eye started twitching. He turned to see his little girl in the android’s arms. “NO!” He yelled, landing on the ground maybe 15 feet from them.
“Bra! Get away from him!”
Bra turned in 17’s arms to look at him. “No, daddy! I love him!”
“He has you brainwashed you!”
“No, I’ve never been thinking so clearly in my life! I want to be with him and there’s nothing you can to do stop me!” She screamed, turning back to 17’s arms.
“NO!” Vegeta hollered, dashing towards them. He hit Bra across the face and threw her to the ground hard, attacking 17 madly.
Bra lifted herself to her knees as her, wiping the blood from her lip. “Daddy, no!” She cried.
17 forced Vegeta back with a small energy blast, but all it did was fuel his burning rage.
“No more games, android! I’m not letting you control my daughter anymore! This is as far as you go!” He yelled, reading himself for the Final Flash.
“DADDY NO!!” Bra screamed, running out in front of 17 who tried to grab her to throw her out of the way, but it was too late.
“FINAL FLASH!!!”
// Notice me
Take my hand
Why are we
Strangers when
Our love is strong
Why carry on without me? //
No one had realized what happened until it was too late. 17 was kneeing on the ground holding Bra in the pouring rain, rocking back and forth as a stunned Vegeta stood hunched over them in denial.
Tears streamed down 17’s cheeks as he looked down at her blood-covered face. “You can‘t die…I need you.” He sobbed.
Bra lifted her hand to his cheek. “Don‘t cry.” She said, smiling a bit. “Not over me.”
// Every time I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
I guess I need you baby //
17 shook his head slowly. “Please, you can’t leave me.”
Vegeta finally dropped to his knees, staring down into his open palms. “I- I didn’t mean…she wasn’t supposed…”
Vegeta shook his head as tears filled his eyes. “She got in the way…”
Goten tried comforting Trunks the best her could as he cried on his shoulder, but he was having a hard time as his own tear’s forced their way out. Bra was the one and only person he had ever loved…
Goku and Gohan stood next to one another with their heads down. They couldn’t find any comforting words at his moment as they tried to make sense of it all. If she did die there was no way of bringing her back. The Dragonball were banded from earth a long time ago for being misused. They were cast all other the galaxy and where virtually impossible to find.
// I make believe
that you are here
It's the only way
I see clear
What have I done
You seem to move on easy //
“I love you…Juuanagou.” Bra whimpered, coughing up blood. She was bleeding intensely from her abdomen.
17 wiped the blood from her lips and held her tight. “No! You can’t die!”
“Why?” She asked, struggling for breath.
“Because…I- I…” He stuttered, crying harder.
// And every time I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you baby //
“Tell me…” She said beginning to cry. “That you love me.”
17 brushed wet pieces of hair over her cheeks. “I…love you.”
// I may have made it rain
Please forgive me
My weakness caused you pain
And this song is my sorry //
Bra began sobbing as the sun started to rise over the city. “17!” She said in pain, coughing up more blood. “I would have given up everything to be with you. Your all I would have needed.”
“Don’t say that…I don’t want to hear any of his would have stuff. You’re going to be alright.” 17 said, trying to assure the both of them.
“You don’t have to lie to try and comfort me. We both know I’m dying.”
// At night I pray
That soon your face
Will fade away //
17 bu his his face in the crook of her neck. “This wasn’t supposed to happen. If you would have listened when I told you not to come looking for me I would be dying…not you.”
“Don’t say that. You know better then anyone else how stubborn I am. Either way I was going to come and stop you.”
17 shook his head. That’s right. She was the most stubborn person he’d ever met in his entire life.
“I left so you wouldn’t get hurt and know your dying. All I wanted to do was protect you from myself…because I love you and I couldn’t live myself if I ever hurt you again.” He confessed. “And…I can’t live with myself if you die…”
// And every time I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you baby //
“Kiss me, 17. One last time.”
17 cradled her in his arms and kissed her softly as her lips suddenly fell limp. He pulled her lifeless body into his arms and lifted his face to the sky.
“NOOOOOOOO!!” He hollered in pain.
Vegeta looked up at 17. “Is she…”
“She’s dead…” 17 mumbled.
“Wha-”
“SHE’S DEAD!!” 17 shouted, as Vegeta pulled her from his arms.
“NO!” Vegeta bellowed, holding her close. “This isn’t happening! This isn’t happening!!”
Vegeta lifted his eyes to 17. “It’s your fault! It’s all YOUR FAULT!!” He yelled, grabbing him by his shirt collar. “I‘ll kill you!” He yelled, shaking him.
“Vegeta, stop!” Goku said, pulling him off of 17. “Bra’s gone! Let’s not spill anymore blood tonight!”
Vegeta knocked Goku away and picked his daughter’s limp body from the ground. He glared at 17 and took of into the air leaving him kneeing in the mud.
Goku patted him on the shoulder. I’m sorry, 17. This shouldn’t have happened and I’m sure your hurting more then most of us, but you don’t want to see you ever again. If you cause anymore problems…I’ll kill myself.” Goku said, leaving with the others.
17 dropped to the ground and didn’t pla mov moving. Suicide the only thought left running through his mind…she was gone.
The End
To Be Continued…
There were candles lit all around Bra’s open casket as her family and friends all wore black in mourning over her sudden death. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room as they said some words in her honor.
In the back of the funeral home 17 could be found sitting in the shadows. He was wearing a black suit, which was unusual for him. Vegeta was the only one to notice him as the room cleared leaving the two of them. He walked over to him, his anger rising.
“How dare you show your face around here, android! I thought Kakarrot told you never to come here again!” He snapped roughly.
17 stood up, walking around Vegeta to Bra’s open casket. He pulled out a single red rose and placed it over her hands, turning back to Vegeta.
“Unlike you, Vegeta. I’m not willing to live without your daughter and I’m not willing to die, either.” He said, pulling out a Dragonball detector.
Vegeta watched becoming interested.
Vegeta caught it, looking at him oddly.
“You want your daughter back and I want the woman I love.”
Author’s Note- I don’t know what to tell any of you…the ending was hard for me to write, but it was something I felt I had to do. Don’t hate me and you shouldn’t worry. There will be a sequel coming out very soon. I just hope you’ll stay around to read it…well, you will if you want to see if Bra gets brought back to life anyway! @-@ PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!
