If There Would be a Tomorrow

*Dragonball Z belongs to Akuria-samma.*


ChiChi sighed as she went to the surgery room in a stretcher bed.  She looked at Goku, Goten, and Gohan, before disappearing through the two doors.

"Well," Goku exclaimed.  "It's going to be a long time, so why don't we go out and get something to eat?"


Goku sighed and looked at the food in front of him.  He picked up his chopsticks and played with his food.  He wasn't as hungry as he used to be.

Gohan was doing the same thing, and Goten, having no idea what was going on, was eating away.

"Are you going to eat that, Otousan?"

Goku looked at Goten with loving eyes, then to his food, and shook his head.

Goten grabbed the plate so fast, and gobbled it down before Goku could change his mind.

Everyone was quiet at the table, deep in their own thoughts.

Only Goten was talking.  He was talking about school, friend (Trunks), and, "Are you going to eat that, Onii-san?" Goten asked Gohan.

Gohan shook his head.


Goku, Goten, and Gohan came to the hospital with blue roses.  They knocked on the door to the room ChiChi was in.

"Come in," a very weak voice barely whispered.  In fact, it was so low, only Sayian ears could hear it.

They came in to the room, and saw ChiChi very pale on the bed.

She opened her eyes.  "Hi, guys!" she tried to talk.  She was even trying to reach for a glass of water beside her, but couldn't even pick it up.

Gohan set the roses down and handed ChiChi the water.  ChiChi gripped it, but as soon as Gohan let go of it, her hand gave way and the glass fell.  It hit the floor and shattered to pieces.

Goku and Gohan looked at each other with despair in their eyes.

Only Goten was happy.  "Okaasan!  What kind of medicine did the doctor give you?"

"A medicine that makes you very weak."

Goten turned his head side ways.  "Why would the doctor do that?  Wasn't medicine supposed to make you strong and better?"

ChiChi ignored the question.  "The roses are beautiful, domo."  Gohan and Goku forced a smile.

"When can you come home, Okaasan?"

ChiChi looked at Goten, who asked the question.  "Very soon dear, very soon."  She suddenly looked angry.  "I'm so thirsty I can't scream!"  But ChiChi was yelling.

Suddenly, the nurse came in.  "You thirsty, ChiChi-san?"

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK?! I'M ABOUT TO SHRIVEL INTO ASH!!!"

Goten became wide-eyed and screamed, then huddled in the corner.

"It's ok, dear."  The nurse got out some fluid and a needle.

Goku became wide-eyed, screamed, and huddled in the corner with Goten and Goku hugging each other, both screaming, "NEEDLES!!"

ChiChi rolled her eyes and muttered, "Like father, like son."

Gohan couldn't help but laugh.


6 weeks after being in the hospital, ChiChi was going home.  She still had to be cared for.

Goku strolled the wheelchair down the halls and out the front door.

Goten had blue roses in his face, so he kept smacking into the walls.  "Otousan!  Okaasan!  I can't see a thing!"

Goku stopped, smiled, went over and picked up Goten.


ChiChi slept most of the time she was home.

She finally had enough strength to get up and go to the bathroom.  She was in the bathroom, but stopped as she passed a mirror.  She stared at it, horrified.  Half of her scalp was bald!

Goku suddenly was standing behind her.  "I've never seen you look so beautiful!" Goku exclaimed, and he truly meant it.


"Oh!  Welcome!" Bulma exclaimed.  "Please come in."

The Son family was eating over at the Brief's house.

ChiChi came in with a baseball cap on, and the front had "Goku" on it.

"How have you been feeling, ChiChi?"

"Old."

Bulma laughed.  "I know how that feels!"

"Goten-kun!" Trunks yelled.

"Trunks!"  The 2 boys did a high five.

The doorbell rang again.

Bulma answered and then said, "Juuhachi-gou!  Kurrin!  And little Marron, oh, she's just so kawaii!"

Everyone sat down, and talked.

Marron was in her car seat, wearing a pink bunny suit, and sucking her pacifier, she was set aside.

"Hey Marron..." Trunks said with an evil voice.

"Hi ya cutie!" Goten exclaimed.  Marron giggled.  "I'll be the first one to get her!" Goten exclaimed.

Trunks punched Goten's shoulder.  "You will not!  I will."

"What could you do for her?"

"How can you provide for her?"

Goten scratched his head.  "Ano, give her children?"

Trunks smacked his forehead.


After dinner, everyone talked again.

Marron crawled around on the floor.

"Marron, will I be the one to claim you first?" Trunks asked.

Marron hit him over the head with a rattle, then giggled.

Bulma sighed, "You know it would be very nice to have a girl around."  She nudged Vegeta.

Vegeta looked at her with eyes that were about to pop out of their sockets.


ChiChi was in bed, very weak.  She was shuttering deep breaths that rarely came.

Goku came and laid down next to her. "You going to be ok?"

"O-Of c-course."  She forced a smile.

Goku forced a smile too.

"Okaasan? Otousan?"  Goten came in.  "Can I sleep with you?"

Goku smiled.  "Hai."

Goten came and laid between them.  "Okaasan?"

"Hm?"

"I was thinking of marrying Marron, will you come to the wedding?"

ChiChi smiled.  "How can I ever miss it?"

Goten kissed his Kaasan on the cheek, and went to sleep.

Goku smiled.  "ChiChi. I never told you this, but, I love you, forever."

ChiChi smiled.  "I always knew that."  She kissed Goten on the forehead.

Goku leaned in, and kissed her full on the mouth.  Goku got comfortable, and slept.

ChiChi closed her eyes and shuddered her last breath.


Ok.  Please don't kill me for having ChiChi die.  I know they could of gotten the dragonballs, and wished her better.  But ChiChi doesn't like that, she likes to let nature run it's course.  How do I know that? My name is Gaka, and I'm from Japan.  If you have any questions or comments, please email me to: [email protected]
