Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Lost ❯ What are you talking about? ( Chapter 17 )

Chapter 17……..

Goku savagely lashed out at his invisible foe, trying to dispense all his anger. The gravity machine beeping every so often to notify him it had gone up twenty-five g's. He looked over at the screen, `575'. It would do, though he still could hardly feel any pressure. Who the hell does that girl think she is? He asked himself, and remembered when she contacted someone on her scouter, <This is Son Xenia TJ…> Why does she have the same name as HER? She can't be my Xenia, she's dead, but….the image of the young Saiyan's face came to mind. He couldn't deny that she did look much like Chichi….but that didn't prove anything, why would his own daughter want to cause him pain and suffering. //Turlus probably picked her because he knows she looks like Xenia, figuring I'd then have a hard time bringing myself to fight her……// He launched a ki blast at one of Bulma's flying targets, and he frowned…..//What are they doing to her?…..Oh, how I wish I could of saved you Chichi….// Goku was thrown out of his thought as the doors to the chamber were opened. Vegeta walked inside and shut the door and surveyed the gravity meter on the console, "575…Not bad Kakarrotto….."

"Could you just leave Vegeta?"

"Ever since you came back from trying to rescue your mate, you've been moping around my house, and now that you have turned to training to pass the time, I not about to let these chances, to spar with you and show you I am stronger, pass me up."

"Vegeta couldn't you have thought up a better time to try and boost you ego?" Goku was in no mood to talk to anyone, he just wanted to train.

"Kakarrotto, any warrior knows that in battle you are not just punching air, you are fighting others who will take every advantage they get. Now, if you do want to get any training done, then you will fight ME."

Goku couldn't take it…….Vegeta's arrogant and egotistical attitude, his unfeeling manner…Chichi being kidnapped, that girl…….

"SHUT THE FUCK UP VEGETA!" Goku yelled furiously making Vegeta step back in shock. Goku rarely talked this way, you'd only hear him speak like that in battle…. "YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN TO QUIT, DO YOU?! YOU JUST KEEP PUSHING AND PUSHING PEOPLE TILL YOU GET YOUR WAY, WELL LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING VEGETA……YOU SAY YOU ARE THE PRINCE OF THE SAIYANS, BUT OF WHAT SAIYANS, ME, YOU AND OUR KIDS! I AM STRONGER THAN YOU AND YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT, NOW GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!!!"

Vegeta stayed frozen to his spot for a second, completely taken off guard by the eccentricities of the saiyan before him. He frowned at Goku and started for the doors, but stopped just before them.

"Kakarrotto, don't become like him……or like me….." said Vegeta with his back still to Goku, and he walked out of the room. Goku watched the door close and fell to his knees and hunched over braising himself with his hands. // I have never acted so cruel towards one of my friends like that before……Oh Dende, what am turning into?//

I sat impatiently on the cold metal table as the doctors around me continued with their tests. I had just woken up this morning with them there, taking brain wave readings, pulse rate, and just about everything else. Now eight hours had passed and they still were not done. According to Kavar, I was in Chichi's cell when I fell unconscious for some unknown reason, and all I could recall was her speaking of her daughter and then……everything was blank. I just couldn't remember. //I know I didn't pass out then, she went on about something or did I?// I wracked my brain for the seemingly forbidden information, but came up with nothing.

"You can go."

I looked up at the man infront of me. He was short and had very pale wrinkled skin that would sagged in certain places. The little bit of hair he had on his head looked like a wad of loose white string.

"What?" I asked, wondering if I was hearing correctly.

"I said you may leave."

"Really?"

"Yes….."

I hopped down from the table and smiled at the old man, "Thanks." I grabbed my clothing from the counter.

"Just be sure to come back tomorrow, so I can check you one more time, all right?"

"Ya, ya doc, I'll be here." I changed quickly, not caring if anyone saw and made my out of the room. I had always hated the infirmary, with all those doctors, medical machinery, and knives…….the only thing I hated worst were shots, (A/N: Who else is afraid of shots…..Goku!) their needle points just seemed to make me uncomfortable. They didn't hurt, but I always remembered Turlus making me get vaccinated a lot when I was younger.

"I need to find a distraction…." I made my way to the prison barracks, and proceeded down a long gray hallway once I had reached the west wing of the ship. I stopped before Cell 245……I opened the door to see her sitting on her little cot, unmoving…..she seemed to be lost in thought. She didn't even acknowledge my presence when I had walked within 5 feet of her..

"The way your acting you'd think you were catatonic or something."

She snapped out of her little trance and gazed up at me. Suddenly, she leapt up and hugged me tightly around the waist, "Thank Dende, you're ok!"

I pushed her away, making her fall back on her cot, "What's wrong with you? Why did you do that?"

"Xenia, I understand everything…."

"What? What do you understand?"

"You're my daughter and Turlus must of taken you or something, but you are my daughter. There is no doubt in my mind-" She was acting as though she were crazy.

"Woah, hold a minute. You think I'm your daughter?"

"You are! Don't you remember….."

"Remember what?"

"When you told me all those things about Xenia when she and Goten had asked Gohan about Goku." Chichi lunged forward at me and clutched onto my shirt in desperation. I didn't know what she was talking about……

"What are you talking about? I never said anything about her. I don't even know anything about her…." Xenia trailed off realizing she shouldn't have told Chichi that.

"But you did! Then you started to clutch you head in pain-"

Chichi was suddenly cut off by the door being flung open and then two men came into the room and made their way over to her and pulled her away from me. One held her down over the cot as the other took out a syringe from a small case. I looked away not wanting to catch a glimpse of the needle, "What are you doing?"

"Don't worry, she's been acting like this for a while now. We give her a sedative once in a while to keep her quiet since she tends to get rowdy."

I could hear her cries begin to die down and I looked over to see her asleep on the cot. Her body sprawled out in many different directions.

"May I inquire, as in why you are in here ma'am?"

"I wanted to see if I could attain any more information from her, but that seems to be out of the question now."

"Oh, well she won't come to for a couple of hours, so there is no use for you stay in here."

I frowned, "Silence! I am in no mood for anyone as inferior as you to start ordering me around."

The two men cowered slightly and quickly slipped out of the room. I looked over at Chichi and wondered why she had made up such stories. I shook my head, dismissing the thought and walked out into the hallway, closing the door behind me. I started for my room, a million questions in my head. Why did I pass out yesterday? Why was Chichi talking nonsense? Why can't I remember much of my conversation with her yesterday? I massaged my temples, as I started to become frustrated. //I wish I could get my mind off all this……..but wait maybe I can….// I thought to myself as my mouth curled into a devilish smirk.

What is Xenia going to do? Can you guess??
