Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Dark Appearance: Part 1 ❯ Epilogue ( Epilogue )

CHAPTER 32: EPILOGUE

Marley woke up in a strange room. Again with the waking up in places I don't recognize. Will it ever end?!? She thought to herself as she threw her legs over the edge of the bed. She wasn't at home, and she wasn't at the Son's, so that meant she must be at Capsule Corp. Slowly she remembered the events that lead up to her being in the bed. She had won. She had beaten him. Finally, years of hiding were over. Perhaps her life would be normal now. She laughed and checked the Future. Nothing. She panicked and realized that she couldn't feel the Key either. Trying not to stress out too much she tried to remember more.

Marley lay on the ground unconscious.

"Marley."

"Let me sleep," she said to the voice in her head.

"I will, soon enough. I just wanted to let you know, we are leaving, the Key and I. We have to leave this plain of existence when our master does. Your duties are over and we will be taking your memories of the Past, Present, and Future with us."

"That is nice, now let me sleep, I just got done saving your asses and I am tired."

"Goodbye, Protector, find peace."

She sighed in relief. Every one was safe, for now. She walked downstairs to find some one. Her acute hearing picked up some voices, in the kitchen, where else? She padded in silently and stood in the doorway. Goku, Vegeta, Bulma, Chichi, Krillun, and Kakkarotto were sitting at the table, Kakkarotto in a baby seat.

It was Goku who noticed her first.

"Marley!" He yelled as he rushed up and gave her a bear hug.

She coughed under the pressure and said, "Kakkarot, I can't breathe."

"Sorry!" He said backing up apologetically and scratching the back of his head, laughing.

"Good, your alive, so this means I won't have to spar with stupid over there," Vegeta said in his normal grouchy voice. But he wasn't fooling any one, everyone knew he was happy about Marley's health.

Marley smirked and said, "Thank you, Mr. Sensitivity."

"Are you feeling okay Marley?" Bulma asked.

"Are you hungry?" asked Chichi.

"Yes, on both accounts."

Chichi got up and started making something to eat.

Marley walked over to Kakkarotto and picked him up out of his seat. He laughed and gurgled as Marley placed him on her hip, stroking his hair and face affectionately. His tail wrapped around her arm and she smiled.

"And how is Gohan?" she asked, still coddling Kakkarotto.

"He is doing fine," Goku said. "He is sleeping off the fight as we speak. He was in pretty bad shape, but he's looked worse."

"I want to see him," Marley said.

"I'll take you," Bulma said, rising from her seat.

Bulma lead Marley down the halls and to a room with the door partially open.

"He is in here," she said opening the door and then closing it behind her.

Marley smiled at her mate asleep in the bed. She got under the covers and laid down facing Gohan. She put Kakkarotto between the two of them and sighed contently. This was the happiest moment of her life. She drifted off into a deep, dreamless sleep.

Somewhere in space Frieza paced back and forth in the large cockpit of his spaceship. His internal scouter had picked up on the ki explosion across the galaxy. He had found them. This time they wouldn't escape him. Also, he was fairly sure that his pet was with them. He would like to see her again, for old time's sake. He laughed an evil laugh and said, "Take us to the coordinates 678.906 by 892.328 by 228.005. I have a little unfinished business to take care of."

He laughed again as he thought of the revenge he would be able to exact on the renegade Saiyans and his pet.

(A/N: Oy there! This is the last chapter of Dark Appearance: Part 1! That means, good God, you guessed it, there is another! Madness I say! Madness upon madness! Okay, perhaps it isn't so crazy. I'm hoping to start posting it some time after or during the holidays. Um, oh yeah! I'm also writing another fic simultaneously. It is a Dragonball Z/Sailor Moon crossover fic. It is also pretty much pure sex with plot. Yes, all fanfiction is the bitch of fics with plot and sex, don't deny it. Um, that is about it, cause I don't even have a name for it yet, but it is getting pretty good…and lemony…yeah. Okay, I'm done! Jan e!)
