Dangerous Games Part 15

Choices

It didnt take long, perhaps 6 minutes, before a slender young man called for them and showed them to a dimly lit room, not too far from from the room they had been waiting in. The room was quite luxurious, having quite some large chairs and tables, a large white-marble bathroom and a huge bed. Goten pulled a closet open and almost immediately slapped it close again, his head burning red. Goku frowned and sighed at this sudden movement, the door slamming had made his heart jump in his chest, already being overactive because of his whole body being nervous and jumpy. A small knock on the door even made him almost jump to the ceiling.

Goten opened it, signaling Goku with his nerves to lay low. The same slender young man that showed them their room, stood now before them, a drowsy Vegeta between his large hands, holding him, or trying to hold him, on his feet. Goku's jaw dropped to his feet and turned around so the man wouldnt see the shock on his face. His heart had frozen when he saw Vegeta hanging limp in the mans arms. His face had been cut, the blood hastily washed away. Several black spots were scattered across his arms and legs. But the worst was that everywhere, simply everywhere, were bright red lashes and old dark ones across his entire body. There was hardly a spot that hadnt been hit by what was apparently a whip. Goku noticed that it was the worst around his chest and his hips. Vegeta's eyes were turned half away, not seeing that he had been brought to Goku and Goten. The bit that was seen of his eyes, was so blurred and hazed that for a second, Goku had doubted they had brought the right man. The fire in his eyes was completely gone, as if they were empty, dead.

The man let the prince slide from his arms and put him into a chair before nodding at the two saiyans and wishing them a pleasant night.

'Wait..' Goten pulled the man by his arm before he could close the door.

'Is there anything you need?'

'Where is the new one?'

'Ah yes... He's being prepared for you right now and will be here shortly.'

'Thank you.'

'Anything to be of service. Have a good night.'

Just when the man left, Goten felt his heart sink. The thought of Trunks being somewhere in the building, people doing God knows what to him. It tore him up that he left Trunks like this, left him in the hands of these maniacs. Being prepared...

'What are they doing to Trunks?! Preparing him? Oh God...'

'Just keep calm.'

'How can I be calm? Who knows what they are doing to him right now! I cant take this any longer dad! I have to find him!'

'They said they were bringing him up here. We cant do anything but wait!'

'I cant wait! I stand it that he is close now, with those... those...'

Slowly tears started rolling down his face, falling to the ground. Goku walked over to him and put his arm around his shoulder, pulling him close to him to reassure him.

'Listen.. How do you think I feel now..'

He shifted so he could let Goten lean to his shoulder, sliding one hand up Vegeta's leg to rest it on his knees. It broke his heart to see him like this. He didnt say a thing, his lips a deep blueish red. The prince just stared in the distance, eyes still blank. Goku felt his eyes heat up, his vision getting blurry as with him too the tears welled up.

'Look at him Goten...' He sighed. Goten looked up at the small saiyan, sitting like a bag of sand in the chair.

'The thing I want most now is grab him, hold him and make the pain and the drug go away forever. I want to grab him now and fly off, just let him be safe, with me...'

Goten gives a slow nod, feeling the pain of his father radiate around him.

'I know it hurts to know Trunks is near and yet so far away in the hands of brutal animals, but we have to wait untill he gets here. I dont like to wait for him, I dont like that I sent him in the hands of the savages, I dont like to be here at all. But we have to. Just a little longer, then we'll leave and never make them do these awfull things again.'

With a small nod, Goten signals he agrees with his father and just bear it. Goku pats him on his shoulder and turns to Vegeta, whispering words in his ear Goten cant hear as his attention is drawn to the sound of footsteps in the hallway.

When the door opens, Trunks walks in, a big smile appearing on his face as he sees Goten. Goten just jumps up and flies over to him, hugging him to never let go again. Goku cant do anything but let out a sigh, happy he is back and apparently in good health as well. Now they have to get everyone out first and then disable the organization in doing any more crimes. Just when Trunks lets go from Goten and goes to sit beside his father, taking his hand in worry. Just like Goku, he would never expected him to be in such a bad state.

Suddenly they freeze. From down below several gunshots can be heard, the low and crisp sound of the bullets leaving the gun. Some men start screaming, followed by some more shots. Within a second it is as if it is raining outside, raining bullets on a tin roof. The sharp sound of them hitting the their targets, followed by soft thumps. People yell and scream for help. Not knowing what to do, Goku decides to get ready to fight, the fading ki of people encouraging the others to do so too. Racing to the door, they hear a loud explosion and a smell of gunfire and smoke seaps in through the open window, stinging their eyes. Then its over. No sound comes from below, nothing.  

Then from behind the door someone can be heard walking towards their room, stopping in front of their door. When the door opens, a man with red hair appears, stopping both men in their joy of having both saiyans back with them.

'Touda..'

Touda grins, his face all bloody and scratched. He is holding his stomach with his left arm, a dark red liquid slowly streaming over his lower arm. Its doesnt take long for everyone to realize he's shot. Just before he collapses to his knees, he fishes out a small vile from his pocket and throws it at Goku. Trunks and Goten doubt for a moment, then race over to catch him.

Goku studies the vile containing a light red substance. With an unsure look, he kneels next to Touda.

'What is this?'

'Nnh... Antidote...'

'What?'

'Gomen nasai..'

Touda's head falls back, landing on Trunks' shoulder. Goku realizes what might have happened. He has blown up the facility that made the drug, killed everyone involved with it, sacrificing himself to save everyone. Why, he doesnt know. Not yet. Slipping Vegeta over his shoulder, Goku walks to the door.

'Goten, pick him up. We are out of here.'

'What? Pick him up? Why? After all the trouble he caused us you want to take him with us?'

'Yes. Trunks, you strong enough to fly?'

'Yeah off course! I faked I was drinking that drink, its smelld so much like cinnamon I didnt even want to take a sip to make it more real. Touda did nothing after that..'

'You lucky...'

'Not quite...'

'What are you saying?'

'Trunks, explain everything later. Goten, pick him up and lets get out of here. I want Vegeta back soon, and staying here any longer doesnt give me any chance of bringing him back.'

'You're right Goku.. Goten, we'll question him later. Let's just take Vegeta to the Capsule Corp and heal him.'

'Yeah but..'

'NOW!'

Not questioning any further, Goten flings Touda over his shoulder and runs down the stairs. When halfway, he stops in his tracks.

'Why are you stopping? Get on with it!' Goku hisses at him.

'Listen.'

The men look around, trying to find any odd noises.

'Sirenes..' Trunks whispers.

'It's the police, we have to get out now.'

'The fast way then..' Goku sighs. 'I should have done this immediately.'

Putting his fingers to his forehead, Trunks and Goten place a head on each of his shoulders and they vanish in a white flash.
