Never Say Goodbye
Chapter 8&9


Would he get there to soon..or too late? Trunks flew himself into catching up to Bra`s single ki. Then something flashed off to his right. It seemed someone else had sensed Bra. Trunks bit his lower lip. The ki seemed fimalliar to his scenes but he couldnt be sure. " I bet its another trick of the doctor..how i wish i could crush his skull.." His hands leaned off at his side in fists. If it was the good doctor ..Trunks was gonna put him out of practice.

She had been so blinded by her own pain she hadnt felt him. Though when he spoke her eyes turned to face him. Shock wore on her face ..how could it be him..he was dead!! " Goten..kun..." Her parted lips whispered in fright. A light stance took to her as she resumed her look. " I have been searching for you...saiyan.." He was approaching her like a wolf ater dark. His eyes hiding thier true maning of death and pain. Bra stepped back a little shocked at his behavoiur. " Goten..dont talk like that its me Bra-chan..Has Dr. Gero gotten to you?"

How could he have hoped for a better disquise then this? She thought he was that saiyan that had died. This was all he needed to drown out the purple haired one. " I guess i`m not myself..Bra...chan.." She was watching him much like a hawk. Her eyes wanting to trust him. " He circled closer to her and enjoyed his game. " Trunks..said you had died facing Bebi...I lost ur ki trace. How..how can you still be alive?"

Trunks wasnt sure what he was seeing with his own eyes. Was it him..was it Goten standing there beside Bra? " Nani..he`s alive!!" Trunks burst to his highest golden form and bolted toward them. He was landed a surprize when his best friend turned to attack him.

" GOTEN ..NOO!!!" She cried as her brother fell backward a few feet. His ki dissappered from his hair and face. Bebi cracked the evilistic of smiles. Turning to face Bra he laughed. " You are such a fool saiyan..I AM BEBI!! Ur saiyan mate lost his body....to me..hahahahahahahaha" Bra felt the rush of emotion sway her. " Got..Goten-kun.." Bebi laughed all to unaware of a woman`s fury...espiceally a saiyan one..

He was him but he was not. Bra stood eyeing the man that had overtaken her beloved Goten. How many tears would she still shed for him? How many more people would he enslave..like her father and now Goten..? It was to much to take at once. Betrayal..loss..love...It was all to much. Bra bursted into tears and her ki ranged out from her body shaking the ground. Bebi stopped his laughter watching her. It seemd the woman was not as weak as he had thought. A low smile escaped his face. " Heh..u wanna pieace of me?" The saiyan tail swooped from behind him. Bra took her step forward and then..dissapered.

~ Back at Ccorp~

Pan held the boys against her chest. What more could she do for them? Gokuu and Bardock were wailing as much as she could stand. The Earth was breaking apart under the stress of 2 ki`s facing off. Her eyes slightly widened as she felt the rise. " Nani has Trunks finnally reached the next level? She wouldnt have any of knowing until it was all over.

Bebi held his own easily against her. This was far to easy for his macanical brain. She moved forward in a low punch and he side stepped her. It was then he realised far to late...It was his tail she was after. Her hand gripped it tightly and with a low smirk, she ripped it off. Bebi stumbled back in pain and Bra took the upper hand. The tail wouldnt help him now as she bashed heavily against his body. " You will pay for killing my Goten-kun.." She swung to confidently breacking his lips into a stream of blood. Bebi fell back blood trailing from his lips. He growled at his misjudgment of her. " Never ..."

Bebi smirked and outstreacthed his hand. He let a light blast smash into Trunks`s limp form. Bra fell short of her last attack. " Trunks-kun!!" His plan had worked to easily. Bebi landed a punch to send Bra backwards. " Haha ur sentimental feelings get u killed..Ur old man taught me that..when i was in his body..To be a true fighter you must never have a weak heart.." Bebi stood stepping over toward Bra. Her super ki left her body upon impact. He raised his glowing hand reading a finishing blow. " To bad you weakened him in the end.." His hand was raised aimed at her heart. Bebi grinned enjoiying the feel of death around him. " Tell ur old man I said..hi.." He let the blast escape his fingers ..................... but it missed.

Bra opened her eyes expecting to be dead. Her pain and hard breathing assured her she was alive. Why had he missed? Bebi eyed his hand and held it back toward her with his other. " Ahh..blast you...saiyan!!" A brim of hope escaped into Bra`s heart. " Goten-kun!!" She forced her body to stand through the pain. If Goten was fighting Bebi...maybe he wasnt dead. " Get out!!Bebi!!" The other voice shouted. It seemed Bebi was stuck fighting Goten`s personal ki. Bra prepared her hands double for a blast. Bebi was powerless to help himsef. His body fell backward and Bra didnt let up on him. She knew that Goten was trying to help her. If he could keep Bebi with him..there might finally be peace.

Trunks struggled to get his body into focus. He could see flashing lights. What was going on..? His body refused to let him up.


Chapter 7

**Lets end this..fic shall we?**

He would never know the pain he had inflicted on the saiyans of Earth. His heart could never love the way they had. Perhaps that was why Bra had fought so hard. If it had been any other way she might not have fought. Her will might not have been strong enough to over come her fears of killing her mate. A rough hand blasted though the tyrants body. He was pushed so far back his body barely held on to Goten. She had grown stronger in the sevral seconds between them. Bebi felt his eyes open in real fear. Could..could she kill me?


~bac at Ccorp~

Pan opened her eyes at the unessasary calm of the storm. What the heck was going on out there? Her teeth grinded as her will to fight grew. Being a saiyan and a mom was hard on Pan. Her arms were full of Earth`s new future hope. It was up to her to protect them. Her mind had to stay focused on that..and that alone..

~Pan`s flashback~

Trunks had been in his make shift office. His glasses helping him seem more 'human' as he had once put it. Pan had desided to check up on him. He was usually asleep with his mouth open on the desk....This time though,..he wasnt. Pan had never seen him look so distant from her. Blue eyes seemed shifted as he was in thought. His musles lay tense under his slept in office clothes. It was a quiet apporach to her husband before he felt her ki and jolted back to reality.

" EH..Pan-chan..what are you doing here?" He pushed himself more upright in his chair. A slight line or two seemed to remain on his face. 'When had Trunks grown so old?' Pan thought. She causlly smiled and placed her hands along his shoulders. " Ahh cant a wife be nice to her husband?" Her words stole a low smirk from his lips. " Depends..on what the wife is after..hehehehe" Pan ran her hands over his shoulders and felt some tesnion ease. " Just some well deserved attention...you know..Bra and Goten left to go training this afternoon..I bet they wont be back till..waaaaaay later..." She was letting his male imagination take a tour of the possibilties. " Is that so eh?..Come here u..." He had grabbed her and pulled her over his lap. Pan giggled as his hand ran over her ticklish spots. " Hahahah Trunks..stop!!.." Her fists were no match for his tickle assult. " Only if u promise to shower me with kisses Pan.." She noddd and he released his tickle assult. Her lips ran acrossed his own...." I love you Trunks-san.." Pan let her words slipp from her lips. His smile melting her heart all over again in love. " I love you too Pan-chan..and I would give my life for you...."

~end of Pan`s flashback~

She snapped to the present. Something was going down out there. Her heart beat faster and faster. Was it...good ...or bad?

~ back to the fight at hand~

'I love you..always..'

Bra felt the ever lasting words of her beloved. Tears fell and her hand slidd through Bebi`s defences one last time. Blood fell against her clothes..her face. The man she had loved with all her heart had finally fallen. It was in the breif second she had seen his eyes look at her. His hand fell against her face along her cheek. " I..lo...love..u..B-chan.." Blood choked up his last words and he was gone. Bra collapsed at her beloved`s side and cried for his loss.

~Few days later~

Everything seemed the same as before Bebi came. Trunks and Pan happily tought thier son Bardock to walk on his own. Bra had gone back to the lab work of capsule corp. Gokuu had prooven much to his line of blood. He was already a handful with ki and hunger. It was a time of happiness and a time to relax. They had all been given the peace they needed. It seemed without Bebi`s force Dr. Gero was at a loss. Noone had heard from him since the day of Bebi`s death. Bra did however not forget her late husband`s sacrifice..Every night she would go to his grave site. A tear would be shed for all they had lost..and gained in life. Her lips could only some up what she felt all along in her heart. " Goten-san..Papsan..Kaasan..we will meet again..so..never forget us..and never say goodbye.."

the end..
