Goku's Daughter(Saiyan Saga)

Chapter 13: From the Earth to You Vegeta

V peered down at Gohan, he looked just the same as he had when she first saw him while he slept.

"You're-" Goku winced trying to pat V on the back "you're a good sister, V."

"He got hurt though." V pinched her face into a scowl. "I should have protected him better."

"No, V." Goku coughed out trying to laugh "you kept him alive, you kept all of us alive." Goku had this way of looking at you, V noticed, you looked into his eyes and you just knew they'd never uttered a lie. V was sure she hadn't seen such innocent eyes ever in her life.

"You protected me." V said suddenly remembering what she had heard in her head before.

"Of course," Goku said "you're my daughter, I'd do anything for you." Goku wondered if having a daughter would be much different from a son. He had wondered from time to time about V when he was in other world, what she was like to live with, if she would eat as much as him or maybe if she would be tiny and broken from her hard life. But as he looked at her, her wide eyes and crazy hair, Goku wondered if V could somehow be his long lost daughter, He quickly dismissed the idea because that was ridiculous but he couldn't help but wonder if fate had planned for V all along. Maybe King Kai would know, he'd have to ask him sometime.

"You mean it?" V asked, she had never been someone's daughter.

"Yes, V, I mean it and I don't want you to ever think you're anything less." Goku finally managed to lift his arm and place it on her face "you're part of the family now." Goku gave Gohan a small squeeze, Gohan, sensing the safety of his father's embrace, curled against his side. V didn't have any more words, anymore questions, instead she just smiled at her father and her brother and breathed in a new beginning.

A blast crashed into the ground sending V, Goku, Gohan and Yajirobe flying across the ground.

"I'm not finished yet you imbeciles." Vegeta seethed stumbling over the rocky ground toward Yajirobe "you weasely little coward." Vegeta stormed "You cut my armor, you've disgraced me, Vegeta the prince of all Saiyans!" Vegeta fell to his knee in front of Yajirobe's overturned body and slammed his fist into his face "I will kill you, one by one I will kill you all!" Vegeta continued pounding on Yajirobe while V searched for Gohan and Goku.

Krillin watched the blast from his spot on the rocks "no, he's still here." Krillin cursed struggling to hold onto the ball of energy. The ground jolted and staggered about.

"Wait." Krillin ordered himself as his friends were blown back and Vegeta approached Yajirobe screaming.

"Almost." Krillin concentrated the energy and brought his arm back "from the earth, to you, Vegeta!" Krillin yelled throwing the Spirit Bomb.

"How dare you humiliate me like this." Vegeta roared "Me, a prince, I have pure royal blood running through my veins, who are you to attack me from behind like a coward!" Vegeta screamed at Yajirobe.

"From the Earth to you, Vegeta!" Krillin's voice rang out through the battle field, Vegeta leapt out of the way at the last second.

"Ha, you lose!" Vegeta whirled around throwing a blast at Krillin.

V felt the energy coming toward her. Her first thought was Vegeta but this energy felt like it was Goku's, she turned in time to see the ball, it looked powerful but something in her told her it was only for the bad. On instinct and gut feeling alone V spun out and kicked the energy back toward Vegeta.

Vegeta cackled to the sky "I win, I win!" he cackled over and over again "I win-" the ball struck it's target as V slid to the ground more tired than she had ever been in her life. V watched as the spirit bomb collided with Vegeta, the blast exploding and sending his body to the sky.
