I could take the high road,

But i know that I'm going low.

xXx

The world of void was an isolated place located outside of the multiverse where the concept of time didn't exist nor was it necessary. This caused it to be out of the jurisdiction of Zeno. As the name implied it was a space filed with inky blackness in all directions with no end in sight. Well that was the case until one Son Goku found himself within it along with the spirit bomb he had been trying to push back.

Deep within the core of the large attack Goku had formed with the help of his allies threatened to overwhelm him. His pain receptors were searing hot, the cause being his audacious attempt to absorb the unstable spirit bomb. Even as his muscles felt like they would fail him Goku persevered, the knowledge that failure would result in his death. It didn't help that he had the hope of a lot of people hanging on his shoulders from his friends, Lord Beerus, Whis-sama, Zeno-chan but above his family or what was left of it anyways.

Goku thinking of what remained of his family caused the spirit bomb to surge as it grew in volume once more due to a lapse in concentration. Suddenly the Saiyans roars of determination morphed into those of anguish.

"I can't keep doing this Goku. You're barely around and i feel i barely know you any more even though we have been married for so long."

Goku's screams faltered in his throat as he winced, a sharp stabbing pain coursing through his chest to afflict his heart. The memory of his last interaction with his wife still fresh in his mind and the raw emotional wound left behind having not healed leaving him tortured by her words.

"I didn't want you to find out like this... certainly not before your big fight to save the universe and such but i um.., i found someone else."

Choking back a scream, Goku felt his heart skip a beat while his chest tightened considerably causing his next few breaths to be shallow and fast. He wasn't sure what had happened, one minute he had his happy little family that he worked so hard to protect and the next thing he knew his wife or ex-wife had decided to leave him for someone else.

So conflicted with his thoughts was the Saiyan that he failed to notice the power he had worked so hard to contain leak back into the spirit bomb, causing it to become unstable once more.

"He actually cares about my well-being... something i doubt you even know or care about to ask. Not like anything was ever good enough to tear you away from your training, not even your fatherly duties. If those were tossed aside that easily then i doubt you even cared enough about your own wife."

Goku's frame shook as silent tears rolled down his face, with his body falling limp. As much as he wanted to deny her accusations the Saiyan man child knew she was right but he had tried. Sure he loved nothing more than training to push past his limits and ascend to higher planes of power however it was all for the sake of keeping his friends and family or so Goku wanted to believe but deep down he knew it was all for his selfish desires to fight stronger opponents. 'Oh Kami, what have i done.'

"I just don't love the way i used to Goku. I was naive to think you would settle down and become a family man but i know now that i was asking for the impossible. You were always free spirited, always off on grand action packed adventures from when you first met Bulma. Maybe in time you will find someone just like you, but it just isn't me. Sorry, hopefully you understand."

"Chi-Chi..." Goku called out weakly, his eyes were misty and glazed over while the will to survive his own attack slowly washed away like the tears rolling down his cheeks. His limp body slumped forward, the gravity from the core of the unstable spirit bomb slowly pulling him towards it.
