| Sorrow By IsNotSane Set anytime you want it to be... ��Dad, ..I�m so sorry�I�� �Shhh. Its okay, son. Don�t worry�� �I�I tried, I tried to stop�him�I couldn�t, I�� �Its okay, Gohan. Its not your fault. Please, calm down, don�t waste your energy, �everything will be fine, okay? Shhhhh.� �Dad�I�m so sorry.� �Shhhh, Gohan. Its okay�Its okay�� ��Dad�� �Shhh. Gohan, I�m proud of you son. You tried your best. Now just relax, you�ll be alright. Every thing will be fine�� �Is he asleep?� �Yeah�Gohan�What are we going to do? I mean, what happens when he wakes up? Will he be scared, or depressed, or�will he�hate me?� �I�d say he would most likely be confused. And feeling dirty and disgraceful and ashamed.� �*Sigh* This is all my fault. I should have known not to let him go up against that thing by himself.� �He�ll probably feel really low and vulnerable and wont look anybody in the eye for a month or more�� �Oh Gohan�I�m so sorry.� �And Guilty. He�ll feel guilty.� �Guilty? Why Guilty?� �Because he couldn�t defeat that thing like you said you trusted he could. And because of that, he got rapped, and your leg got servierly injured. He�ll naturally think its his fault.� �Oh no! Gohan� This is all my fault.. what have I done? I should have come sooner�!� �And naturally, because you said you trusted Gohan to defeat that thing, but instead, Gohan got rapped by him; and because Gohan feels he is responsible and thinks he got you injured, will ultimately make you feel guilty as well.� �But I AM guilty, Vegeta!� �That�s what the situation would propose for you to think. If everyone thought that way, then everyone would be guilty. But I guess that�s how you �nice� guy�s brains� work. You would always find some way to blame your selves.� �*Sigh* Well, whoever�s fault it was, it doesn�t change what�s happened, and how on earth we�re going to get through this. How am I going to tell his mother and brother?!� �You are still blaming yourself, aren�t you Kakarot? Well, I guess that�s how your �nice� guy brain works. Does it ever occur to any of you �nice� guys to blame the monster who is actually did it? That would seem the logical explanation on who to balme.� �This could change absolutely everything! What if he never trusts any one ever again? Not you, not me, not any one of his family or friends�?� �That could happen.� �Or what if he never wants to go outside or train any more?� �Could also happen.� �I have no idea what�s going to happen, or what to do about it.� �Well, I know what�s going to happen *now* if you don�t get the kid home and give him a senzu bean pretty soon. That could change �absolutely everything� even more if he doesn�t even survive to get through it.� �Oh, Vegeta! Your right! �C�mon Gohan, I�m going to take you home now, Just hold on. �I�m so sorry.� �Don�t be,� Vegeta whispered, unheard to anyone else as he watched Goku pick up his half-naked, unconscious eldest son carefully in his arms, then limped a bit before he rose into the sky and with a quick, but gentle speed, flew to the direction of their home. �Because it�s my fault. I should have come sooner.� Vegeta said to no one in particular, watching the distressed father and son disappear into the distance. End. |
