The Saiyan Bond

Descent

Vegeta pov
Even now, I still worry for the sanity of Goten considering all that he has been forced to do nowadays. If we are to really find out who this behemoth is, then we have to be extremely cautious of whom we speak to our in the galaxy and a certain someone (kakarot) will have to actually gain a little intelligence.
We are searching for the hq material base in quadrant 7 for Cooler. If he is there, then we can confront him and possibly kill him. But we can't fight unless he admits to being the one in Gotens dreams.
My poor Goten, I worry about him too much. I don't understand it, he isn't even related to me in anyway and yet I just feel like I have a need to take care of him.
Kakarot places a hand on mine and I smile, looking out the window panel of the ship as we fly. Okaru is at the controls and multiple little mechanical noises continue to sweep the room.
"I thought you fought cooler once before isn't that true Kakarot?" I ask.
He nods and sighs.
"Yah but it was a long time ago" scratches his head, "in fact I think Gohan was only 8 at the time. And I didn't kill cooler. I just wounded him enough to send him back home for recovery."
"Like you did to me correct?" I tease.
He blushes and glances down at the red tiling.
"Y-yah. Yah like that time before. B-but you know we were just enemies then okay! I mean-you-were threatening to kill all of us and destroy the entire planet so I had to do something."
I smile and reach up to ruffle his hair to which he responds with a purr.
Damnit Kakarot, don't go turning me on when Okaru is here with us.
I sigh and lean my chin against the palm of my hand as the ship swerves a little harshly and Okaru lets out a shaky breath, breaking the silence.
"What is it? Don't be so nervous"
He shivers and sits back slightly but his hands remain tightened at the gears.
"It's just-I can't help but have a panic coarse through me, prince."
"And why is that?"
"I am leaving my newborn daughter for a few days to fight a being that I am not entirely positive should be really considered a threat. And not only that; but it's the fear of something dangerous happening to my beloved mate whilst I'm gone. Shortly after Saiyan birth, they are extremely vulnerable and weak for about a month. "
I nod and turn to look at Kakarot who has a perplexed look spread across his face.
"Advisor, you have every right to be in the state you are, however you must allow it to interfere with the serious moments of our mission. Do you understand?" He nods and I'm only seeing the back of his head but I can sense the small drop of tension fade throughout his shoulders.
"Good then. Now how far along are we?"
He makes a hissing sound before looking at the electric map on the panel and turns, finally making eye contact with me.
"We have a few hours to go. It would be nighttime on earth by the time we approach"
Goten pov
Gomai yawns and leans into my chest as she slowly falls asleep. I'm utterly exhausted for the day and I don't think my eyes can creat anymore dark circles and bags.
Somehow it's still happening....I think to myself as I peer into the mirror.
"Oi-Goten! You're gonna catch a cold if you sleep out in the hallway! Lay down in here with us!" My brother beckons me to the bedroom and i lay my little one down into the crib along side her brother in law who is nearly the same size as she is.
The two toddlers from Vegeta and dad are downstairs sleeping in the guest room because they toss in their sleep.
Fact albeit Vegeta-San, so we let them be to themselves.
I snuggle up to trunks who wraps his arm around me snugly and smiles.
"It's like old times yah?"
I snicker and nod as Gohan completes the chain of spoons to my best friends backside and we all slowly fall into a heavy sleep.
Maybe I will dream of a better vision tonight....
