Hell's Princess

Summary: Gayah's evil side is brought out and she is turned against her friends and family. Who can remind her of all the good times and restore her back into the good person everyone knows of?

Prologue: Gunning Down the Princess

After all of this time, I will finally get it. The Princess will finally become a true Saiyan!

"Were you dreaming again, my Lord?" Jale asked.
"Yes. To know that I finally possess the power that my father handed down to me...ha! I will now be capable of using the Princess as my pawn! She may be very powerful physically, but emotionally she is very weak. And she won't realize it until I reek havoc upon her senses!"
"Well, I know that I am only your servant, but Master Alero, when you accomplish your goal, may I have a little fun with her? I would like to test her power," Jale suggested.
"Well, because you are both women and desire fighting so much, I suppose I could let you. But only if you do what I ask of you successfully," Alero started. Jale smiled.
"I will do anything you wish, my Lord."
"Good. First I would like you start using your psychic powers to manipulate her mind while around her friends. I wish to alarm them, especially her brother. To see him cower in fear of his sister's well-being will be splendid! Let's begin with our delicious preparations immediately!" Alero exclaimed.
"As you wish, my Lord," Jale replied.

Chapter 1: The Beginning of the End

"Gayah, come on! Why do we have to keep training?" Goku whined as he dodged her attacks.
"Quit whining and counter! Gohan did 10 times better than this and he's still a teenager! I think it's time to kick it up a notch!" Gayah yelled as she went Super Saiyan. Vegeta, Gohan, Zasyder and Kitaria watched her and Goku spar. They were staying in tip-top condition just in case another threat unleashed upon the Earth. Even though Zasyder, Kitaria, Gohan and Goku disagreed, Gayah and Vegeta were still very determined to keep their fellow comrades in shape.
"Gayah, c'mon! I'm hungry!" Goku said as he once again dodged her attacks.
"Well, if you don't beat me, you're not getting any food! Not for a long time!" Gayah informed. At that Goku went Super Saiyan and punched her in the stomach. Gayah choked and fell to the ground, changing back into her normal self.
"Nothing like watching the two strongest siblings go at it in training. That was good. And I guess Goku earned his meal," Kitaria smiled. Goku helped his sister up and she just laughed.
"I guess I know what to say for motivation from now on, Goku," Gayah stated.
"Yeah, me too!" Goku agreed.
"C'mon Kakarot, let's get something to eat," Vegeta ordered. But before anyone could move, Gayah screamed out and held her head in pain.
Why do you take orders from them? They don't have the authority! You are a Princess! Get them Kakarita!
"No! Get out of my head, damn you!" Gayah screamed out.
"Gayah, what's the matter?" Zasyder asked as he knelt beside her. She shook her head and then it was over in an instant.
"Are you okay?" Kitaria asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine now. But that was very strange," Gayah pointed out as she stood.
"What was it?" Gohan asked.
"I really don't know. I heard a demanding voice, and it was all over in a few seconds. I wish I knew what happened myself," Gayah explained.
"Well, maybe you better go and get some rest. It might help you out," Goku suggested. Gayah nodded, and they walked inside.

Chapter 2: Another Attack

Gayah sat down in the living room, staring at the ceiling.
'I wonder what that was. That voice...it sounded as if it wasn't coming from my mind...it sounded like it was right beside me. This is all too strange. Could yet another force be coming to reek terror upon Earth? If so, we all better be ready.' Gayah snapped out of her thoughts and Goku walked up to her, sitting down beside her.
"So, are you alright? The others are eating, and I guess I really couldn't pig out at a time like this," Goku stated. Gayah smiled.
"Yeah, I think I'm alright. But I still don't know what it was. It could have been anything," Gayah wondered aloud.
"Well, tell me exactly what happened," Goku urged.
"Well, someone was talking to me. I'm drawing a blank to what it was saying, but it was urging me to do something. I don't really know. It feels as if someone is trying to drive me insane," Gayah explained.
"That can't be good. Maybe you better take a nap. It might make you feel better," Goku said. Gayah shook her head.
"No. I don't think that's a very good idea. As long as I take it easy, maybe. But I'm not going to take a nap. It's probably nothing anyway," Gayah informed. Goku shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, you know what's best. If that's what you want to do, I won't force you. That wouldn't help," Goku smiled at his sister. She smiled back and hugged him.
"Thanks, Goku. You better go and eat. I can hear your stomach growling, and I'm sure you're hungrier than ever," Gayah chuckled.
"Yeah, I guess I am. Just stay here and take a load off. Then we'll see how you feel later, okay?" Goku suggested. Gayah nodded and he walked out. Then, it happened again...
What are you thinking? You're letting your BROTHER of all people tell you what to do? You don't have to "take it easy!" You can do what you please! Dammit Kakarita, go after your brother!!
Gayah grabbed her head and grunted. "Oh no...not again..." She could still hear the voices in her head.
Go after your brother...go after your brother...go after your brother...
"Go after...my brother...NO. I CAN'T. Why would I do such a thing? SHUT UP!!!" Gayah yelled. At that, everyone ran in. Zasyder rushed over to her side and put his hand on her shoulder.
"Gayah, what's the matter??" he demanded.
You don't have to answer him! He doesn't care about you! None of them do!
"They care about me!! All of them do, and I know it! Stop it now!" Gayah exclaimed. She unleashed winds of power and it flew around the house, causing things to fall over and break.
"Gayah, stop! You're going to hurt someone!" Kitaria yelled.
Strike her down, Kakarita! You're in pain and she doesn't even care about it! Only about the people in the room other than you!
"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!" Gayah shrieked. She opened up her eyes and shot a shockwave at Kitaria, causing her to fly into the wall.
"GAYAH!!" Goku screamed. The winds stopped, and Gayah looked at her fallen friend.
"No...Kitaria...what have I done?" Gayah started. She stood and she started to shake. "I can't believe I did this...what is HAPPENING to me??"

Chapter 3: Transfer Into Darkness

"Gayah..." Kitaria started as she stood. She began to walk over to her, but Gayah only pushed her away.
"No...stay away from me. I'm going to keep hurting people. Until this stops, just STAY AWAY," Gayah ordered. And with that, she ran outside.
"This isn't good," Zasyder noticed. Goku's breath caught in his throat.
"You have something you want to say, Kakarot?" Vegeta asked.
"When that happened, I could sense some emptiness in her," Goku said.
"You mean, like evil?" Gohan questioned.
"Yes, Gohan. I think something is corrupting Gayah. But I just can't tell what," Goku continued.
"Well, you would be the only one to know, Goku. You're the closest to her in blood. That's why the rest of us couldn't detect it," Zasyder guessed.
"So when she did that to me...she really didn't mean it? For that one passing second, something, or someone, was controlling her?" Kitaria asked. Goku nodded.
"Well, we need to do something about this! We can't just let Gayah be controlled like this!" Gohan pointed out.
"But what is there to do about it, son? As far as I'm concerned, there is nothing we can do until we know more about this," Goku informed. Everyone sighed. They knew Goku was right.

Gayah ran into the deep forest, stopping to look behind her. No one was following her.
"Goku isn't following me? But why? I was almost sure that he would come after me," Gayah wondered to herself.
That's because he doesn't care about you, Kakarita.
"Who was that?? Answer me!!" Gayah demanded, looking around.
I'm right here, Princess.
"WHERE??"
"Behind you." Gayah gasped and turned around to see a man with long sandy-yellow hair and icy blue eyes. With him was a woman with red hair and black eyes.
"Who are you?" Gayah asked calmly.
"My name is Alero, and this is Jale. I am the one who has been talking to you within your mind, urging you to do things," Alero answered.
"But...why?? I hurt one of my own friends! Why are you doing this?" Gayah questioned. Alero looked at Jale and nodded. She walked over to Gayah and put her fingers to Gayah's temples.
"Because we want to show you that no one cares about you anymore. Things have changed. Can't you tell, Kakarita? You should show them that you're not going to take it anymore!" Jale said. Gayah's body shook and she screamed out. Then her body was surrounded with black electricity. Jale moved away and Gayah smiled evilly. Her eyes changed from teal to red and her left eye had a black scar.
"The transfer is complete, Master Alero," Jale replied as she bowed.
"How do you feel, Kakarita?" Alero asked.
"Full of...revenge," Gayah/Kakarita smirked.

Chapter 4: Would Goku Fight His Sister?

Goku's head flew up.
"NO!"
"What is it, Dad?" Gohan asked.
"I...can't believe it. Gayah is...is..."
"Is what??" Vegeta asked impatiently.
"Is ready for revenge!" Everyone looked at the doorway, and Gayah was standing there smiling.
"Gayah! What happened to you?" Zasyder asked.
"I can sense a large amount of emptiness within her...Gayah is EVIL!" Goku exclaimed as he stood.
"WHAT??" everyone said.
"You heard him. I guess I finally let myself give in. I am here for one purpose, and one purpose only, and that is to fight all of you!" Gayah remarked as she charged up to Super Saiyan.
"I can't believe you, Gayah. Of all people, you would let yourself be controlled. I didn't think you were that weak," Goku stated as he stepped forward. Gayah shook in anger.
"You see?? Alero was right! None of you could care about me!" Gayah screamed.
"Alero? Who the hell is Alero?" Vegeta asked.
"That is none of your concern, Vegeta. Why? You want to thank him for getting me out of your hair?" Gayah yelled.
"That's not what he meant, Gayah. We want to go after him and take him out so you turn back to normal," Kitaria corrected her. Gayah just chuckled.
"You take out Alero? I don't think that is even possible," Gayah informed.
"Gayah, how could you let this happen to yourself?" Gohan asked, his eyes becoming glossy.
"I guess I was tired of everything. Things need to change around here, and I will be the one to do it!" Gayah responded. Goku shook his head.
"You're a fool," he snapped. Everyone gasped, even Vegeta, who was the most shocked. "Only a fool would let something take control of them. So obviously, PRINCESS, you are a FOOL."
"A fool, you say? Well, I won't be a fool once I drive you to your knees, begging for mercy!" Gayah scolded. Goku just looked away.
"Would your father really fight his own sister?" Kitaria asked Gohan. He just shrugged.
"If that's what you think will solve this, then go ahead. I don't have a problem fighting you. Sister or not, you're evil, which makes you an enemy," Goku explained. Gayah screamed out and tackled Goku outside.
"I guess we got our answer," Zasyder sighed as they all ran outside after them. The fight had begun...

Chapter 5: Goku Versus Gayah

"I can't believe you would fight me!" Goku insinuated as he dodged one of Gayah's vicious attacks.
"Well, as I said, things have changed around here!" Gayah said. She threw a punch at him, but he caught her fist in the air.
"Don't do this, Gayah. WHY would you do this?" Goku asked, more calmly now.
"Because. Must I have a reason?" Gayah snapped. Goku nodded. "Well, because I'm going to show you who I REALLY am on the inside! And that is the same as you, Goku. A SAIYAN!!" She powered up to the next level and kicked Goku in the shins, sending him flying into a tree. Gayah flew up to him and punched him, sending his body even further. "Are you going to mock me now, dear brother? Or are you too much in pain?" Goku got right back up.
"Not even close," Goku smiled as he charged to Super Saiyan and went after Gayah. They exchanged blows through the air, not stopping until Goku punched Gayah and she went flying into the ground below. "Have I finally convinced you to stop?"
"Never. I'll never stop. Not against you, Goku. Not against anyone," Gayah remarked as she got back up and into fighting stance.
"Why do you have to fight right now?" Goku asked.
"WHY?? Saiyans are warriors born! It's natural for one to always want to fight, especially royal Saiyans. Do you want to test me?" Gayah answered with a smirk.
"Gladly," Goku responded back. They grappled their hands together, electricity flying around them. "You forget, dear sister, that I am also one of those born warriors. I guess we're at a tie."
"I don't think so. I'm the best damn Saiyan there is. And what are you? Nothing!" Gayah hissed as she kicked him in the face. She walked over to him and slammed her foot into his chest, then held her palm out towards him. "I think it's time for you to die. Why would I kill my own brother, you may ask? It's simple. I'm evil, and I don't give a damn whether you live or die!" She powered up an energy blast.
"I'VE HAD ENOUGH!!" Kitaria screamed. She rushed over to Gayah and grabbed her head. "Think for just a second about what you're doing, Gayah. You're about to kill your little brother; the only brother you have left. Why would you do it? You should really ask yourself if this is the right thing to do. I know it's not, and so does everyone else. But you need to find that out for yourself. You've taught all of us so much, and you've done so much for people. I think it's time for us to do something for you. This is NOT the real you, Gayah. Alero is wrong. So what if you're a Saiyan? Even a Saiyan has a heart. You have both the power AND the heart to fight back and return to the friends and family you KNOW who love you." Gayah backed away, looking confused.
"No...stop it...all the good...it's coming back!" With this statement, Alero and Jale appeared in front of her.
"Kakarita, how dare you let this woman's words get to you? They're all lies!" Alero snapped. Gayah looked at him, and the black scar on her left eye vanished, along with the red in her eyes.
"Lies? Alero, you are mistaken. Those words you call "lies" are my LIFE! And I'm not about to let you take it away from me! And I won't let you use me to take it away from my brother," Gayah replied. She held up her palm and blasted Alero, leaving nothing but dust behind. Jale looked at Gayah and growled.
"You will pay for that, and also for disobeying us!" Jale yelled.
"I doubt that. How is that possible when you are nowhere near in my league of power? You've underestimated me. If you didn't, you wouldn't be here right now, fighting to make me return into the darkness. You see, I never really liked the dark, and I never knew why. But NOW I know," Gayah explained. She powered up her Comet Warp. "Say goodnight, Jale. COMET WARP ATTACK!" Her large blast flew towards Jale, then split into many, many more which surrounded her and all came in contact with her. She was dead in an instant. Gayah’s breaths got faster. She used just about all of her power for that blast. She turned to her friends, who just stood there, then she looked at Goku. “Goku, I’m…”
“Sorry? Don’t be, Gayah. It’s all right. Evil was controlling you. And when evil controls you, it’s so hard to get away from it, especially when you have Saiyan blood,” Goku interrupted. Gayah smiled.
“Thanks.” Gayah turned to Kitaria. “Kitaria, I think if you didn’t step in when you did, I really would have killed Goku. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” Kitaria smiled.
“Well, you have always taught me to do what my heart tells me to. And that was one of them,” Kitaria replied.

Chapter 6: Sentimentality

Gayah could feel herself starting to cry. This was coming from the person who grew up with her and her brother; from the person who regarded her as her own mother. “Oh Kitaria…” Gayah started. Kitaria just looked at her, then Gayah pulled her into a hug.
“Gayah? What’s the matter?” Kitaria asked.
“You’re like a daughter to me, Kitaria. I don’t know what I would ever do without you,” Gayah remarked. Kitaria gasped, shocked from the words coming out of Gayah’s mouth.
“I guess you could say the same for me, Gayah,” Kitaria said. Gayah just looked at her and smiled. “You don’t need to apologize. These things happen, and sometimes, not even you can do anything about it.”
“Yes, but I knew all along that I had the heart to stop what was happening to me. I just loved the competition against Goku so much that I didn’t want to stop, and that just made everything worse, especially since they got into my dark side, until you stepped in,” Gayah remarked.
“Stop giving me all the credit. I did it because I knew it was the right thing to do. That’s what you and Goku taught me,” Kitaria reminded. Gayah nodded.
“And don’t you forget it, girl. But you know, you’re not a little girl anymore. You’re a grown woman. You can start thinking more for yourself instead of remembering everything we put into your head,” Gayah suggested.
“But I don’t want to. You taught me so much about life, Gayah. And you taught me not to hate my parents for what they did. They sent me away from them because they knew I would be in good hands with you and Goku. And man, I never knew they could be so right,” Kitaria conversed. Gayah’s bottom lip quivered. “Okay, considering the fact that Gayah is about to break down again, why don’t we go get something to eat? All of that has made me really hungry.” Everyone nodded and went back into the house after all of the commotion.

That night, after everyone went home, Gayah was getting ready to walk into her bedroom when Goku stopped her. “Gayah, could I talk to you for a minute?”
“Sure, bro. What do you need?” Gayah asked.
“I wanted to go and talk outside. I don’t want anyone to bother us,” Goku continued. Gayah just nodded, and following him outside.
“So, what’s up? You need to get to bed. I can tell that I wore you out today,” Gayah smiled. All Goku could do was smile back at the sarcastic statement. But it quickly faded. So did Gayah’s. “You need to discuss something serious. I can feel it.”
“Yeah. I was just wondering something…since I was gone for so long, I never got to hear about Goten’s birth. Could you tell me what happened?” Goku asked.
“Shouldn’t you be asking ChiChi about Goten?” Gayah questioned.
“Yeah, I guess so. But I would feel a little better talking about it with you,” Goku answered.
“Well, okay. I can still remember the day. Gohan was playing with Fey’lya and I was sitting there watching when Zasyder ran in the room. He started saying things that I couldn’t understand. After I got him to calm down,. He told me that ChiChi was starting to go into labor with Goten. She had already had his name picked out when she found out she was pregnant. Zasyder grabbed Fey’lya, Gohan called the others to go to the hospital and I helped ChiChi into the aircar. I told Zasyder and Gohan to just fly after us when they were ready. I rushed ChiChi to the hospital, and luckily Krillin was already there was 18. I told them of the situation, and they helped me check her in. They put her in the hospital room, and soon enough, they told us she was ready, but she needed someone in the room with her to keep her calm. Gohan wanted to help, but he WAS only 11. The doctor then said the most surprising thing in the world. ChiChi suggested me,” Gayah explained. Goku jumped.
“You? Why you?” Goku asked.
“Because she explained to me once I arrived that if she couldn’t have you next to her side when her son was born, she wanted the next best thing. She knew with me there she would still be able to feel your comfort there. And she did. She swore to me that she could hear your comforting words in her ear and your strong hands on her shoulders. I told her she wasn’t hallucinating. I was feeling the same thing. I could feel you over my shoulder, telling me that I was doing a great job at bringing your son, my nephew, into this world. And I remember when I first looked into his eyes. I saw you, Goku. Everything about Goten reminded me of you. I could see your playful antics in him. And I knew he would grow up being a splitting image of you. And I didn’t think I would be so right,” Gayah continued.

Chapter 7: Drifting To The Heart

“But I never had any idea that I had another son. How could you have felt my presence?” Goku wondered aloud. Gayah touched her brother’s shoulder.
“Because we’re a part of each other, that’s why. I know when you’re happy, sad, angry…and you know it with me as well. We share the same blood, the same feelings, the same memories, no matter what,” Gayah clarified. She turned around and started back into the house. Goku followed, and they looked into the bedroom that the kids were staying in. Gohan was sprawled on the floor, and Fey’lya was curling up beside him. Kitaria was curled up in ball with Goten and Zimena holding onto her, and the two younger Saiyans were smiling. Gayah chuckled to herself. “Look at our children in there, Goku. They’re growing up so fast, aren’t they?”
“Where did all the time go?” Goku finished for her. They looked at each other.
“It flew by so fast. It seemed like yesterday when Gohan was being born, then all of a sudden, Fey’lya was born and Gohan saved the world from mass destruction. I don’t know what to do. It’s so scary,” Gayah remarked.
“I know. I mean, look at Gohan. He’s already 18. He’s grown so much since I died at the Cell Games,” Goku noticed.
“And he’s changed in a lot of ways, as well. He’s so mature, but yet, he reminds me so much of you. You wouldn’t believe how much time I spent with him. We both seemed to get pleasure out of it. He reminded me of you and I reminded him of you. We got very close over these few years,” Gayah said.
“And then there’s Fey’lya. I remember when she was first born. She looked so much like you, until now. She’s creating her own image, isn’t she?” Goku asked. Gayah nodded.
“Yeah, but her personality reminds me so much of Zasyder. She despises Vegeta and loves to challenge people,” Gayah stated.
“She gets that trait from you, obviously,” Goku smirked. “And little Zimena. She’s quite the angel, isn’t she?”
“Yes. She always has a positive look on everything. And she’s only 4. She’s so intelligent. I don’t know where she gets THAT from,” Gayah giggled.
“And she loves Vegeta. She gets that from you, no doubt,” Goku commented.
“She’s a lot different from Fey’lya. And Goten looks and acts like you when you were little,” Gayah recognized. Then they both looked at Kitaria…
“We’ve known Kitaria since she was an infant. We watched her grow like she was our own child. How do you think we did raising her, considering we grew up with practically no parents?” Goku asked.
“I think we did pretty good. She has such a good heart, and she knows right from wrong like the front and back of her hand. She always does the right thing, just like you,” Gayah put in.
“And she always is ready to fight for the people she cares about, just like you,” Goku whispered in his sister’s ear. He kissed her on the cheek. “Good night, sis, and thank you.”
“For what?” Gayah asked.
“Just for being you, and for being here.” And with that, Goku walked into his bedroom, shutting the door quietly. Gayah smiled and looked one last time in the children’s bedroom.
“Sleep tight, my little children. Tomorrow’s another day,” Gayah murmured as she shut the door and walked in her bedroom where Zasyder was waiting.
“What kept you?” he asked as she crawled into bed.
“Talking to Goku, that’s all,” Gayah responded as she got into his arms.
“What about?”
“About how much precious value life has to us,” Gayah answered. Zasyder smiled, and kissed her. “Good night, sweetheart.”
“Good night, my Princess.”

THE END
