HOPELESS FUTURE, SHATTERED PAST
by animegrrrl, also known as: VegetaDaimoh and majunior117
SUMMARY: A/U, continuing after Goku's heart attack and death, Piccolo, Gohan, and Trunks are the only Z warriors left alive. On the run from the Androids, on the run from Cell, is it possible in this hellish world to find a little bit of happiness? YAOI. Possible pairings: Gh x P x 17 x Tr x Gh?
Time: The Past
Sorrow. Ceaseless, unending sorrow.
A hopeless future, a shattered past. What was the point of going on?
Firelight flickered across the face of a Namek in meditive pose. No emotion showed as he entertained these uncharasterically weak thoughts, but inside, the struggle raged.
The Earth in ruin, half the population already slaughtered, and Piccolo Daimoh, the once great demon king, completely powerless to do anything about it. The rest of the warriors were already dead. Even Vegeta was easily defeated, having every bone in his body broken one by one, until he was totally unable to move. He managed to spit in Android 18's face before she put out his flame. It was only a matter of time before they came for him, only a matter of time before he faced the inevitable-
A troubled noise snapped him out of his pose. The little bundle before him whimpered and Piccolo was there in less than a second. He tucked the white folds of his cape tighter around a curled body and put his hand on the child's forehead. "Shhh." Piccolo said. The child started to calm, and Piccolo wondered what sort of nightmare he had been having. Perhaps he was dreaming of all his friends being slaughtered, perhaps of his father being cruelly taken away before his time. If only Son Goku had been alive, Piccolo knew things would have been different. The man had a way about him that made you know that everything would somehow turn out alright. Despite the odds, Son Goku would have turned out on top.
The Namek softly ran a green hand through the child's wild black hair. A small smile graced Son Gohan's face in return. Piccolo felt the purpose of life returning to him. They may not have had Son Goku, the most powerful warrior in the universe, but they had his son.
Piccolo saw salvation.
