Chelene
Piccolo
places his hand on Gohan's shoulder, "I have faith in you as well
Gohan, you smashed his gem and he let it out that it contained his
immortality. With that destroyed, he may not have lost any power, but
he can now be defeated. You have the power to do it."
Gohan
turns and looks at the powerful beast. It has badly hurt his father
and almost killed Vegeta, yet he still feels confident that he has
what it takes to beat the Spirit. "My master has been destroyed
and his wishes have not yet been fulfilled. I will destroy all that I
see for vengeance of my master. It cannot be done unless the greatest
warrior is destroyed first."
Gohan
powers up. "So lets do it."
The
Spirit points his finger and a bunch of blasts are let out. Gohan back
flips and dodges out of the way of the blasts. He faces his hands out
and gives his own blast, but the Spirit is quick even for his size.
Gohan jumps at the beast and kicks it in mid air, making it crash to
the ground. Gohan places his hands above his head and builds power.
"Masenko!!" A huge explosion causes immense smoke and dust
to built up. When it clears, the beast stands there, holding its arm.
Blood is running down it, and is seeping through his fingers and
claws. He raises its tail, and a blast is let out at Gohan. Gohan
tries to move, but the blast singes his shoulder. He stares him down
holding his arm. The Spirit jumps high in the air slams his tail down
on Gohan, causing such impact that an explosion of dust and smoke
consumes them. The smoke clears and all who are watching are in awe as
they see Gohan holding the beast by the tail. A blue flame has
consumed Gohan and after spinning around one time, he tosses the
Spirit across the landscape.
"Unbelievable!"
Piccolo says in awe.
"That
kid is too much!" a badly hurt Vegeta lets out, still on one
knee. Goku is hurt badly as well, with the bloody scratches still
fresh on his body. He stands up to see his son defeat the Spirit.
Gohan cups his hands to his side and powers up, waiting for the Spirit
to get to his feet. "Kame..."
The
beast gets to his feet.
"Hame...."
He
turns to Gohan and flies at incredible speed.
"HAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!"
Gohan's
powerful blast rips straight through the beast, and he explodes in mid
air.
"You
did it Gohan!!" Goten is overjoyed that his brother saved
everyone from certain death. Gohan flies to his father, who seems to
be okay, but he still feels he should be standing up like that.
"Take
a seat dad. Everything's gonna be alright."
Goku
smiles, he is so proud of his son. "That was awesome son! Looks
like Earth has a new superhero!"
Gohan:
"Dad, no one can replace you." All the warriors are
together, but Chelene looks out at Freeza, who is still on the ground
recovering from the beating Vegeta gave him. She also turns and sees a
familiar spaceship flying out to space. She slightly smiles, she
should have known her people would be here.
"I'm
sorry that you lost your notebook ma'am."
Trunks
catches her attention. "Its okay, I think the information will
still be documented."
Trunks
gives a dumb look. "Huh?"
She
smiles and says, "Forget about it."
She
leaves a still confused Trunks and walks over to Freeza. Vegeta sees
them together and flies over to them. "I don't know why you
helped me, and I really don't care! Nothing you do will make up for
what you have done to me and my kingdom!" Freeza looks to
Chelene. "I will have to leave again, please forgive me for what
I said to you....I--love you....."
Chelene
grows sad and jumps at Vegeta.
"Stop!
Please spare his life!! He will never hurt anyone for as long as he
lives!!"
Vegeta:
"Stupid woman! You have no idea what you are doing! Get off of
me!!"
Piccolo
takes Chelene off of Vegeta before the Saiy-jin really loses his
temper. "I know the pain I caused you and your people Vegeta, and
this may mean nothing to you, but I really am sorry for all that I've
done......"
Vegeta,
with his hand still faced out, looks at Freeza as if he were speaking
another language. He stares at him with confusion, that confusion
turns into disgust, that disgust turns into rage, that rage turns into
hatred. He finally replies: "Apology not accepted."
The
other warriors watch as they understand not to interfere. Goku, in his
mind, actually agrees with Vegeta for a change. Chelene cries and
hides her head into Piccolo who is still holding her back. Vegeta
places both hands in front of him and blasts him back into the next
dimension with the Final Flash. Chelene jumps to the spot where Freeza
was and cries on her knees. Vegeta flies off, he looks to his son who
follows, but feels bad for the woman. Piccolo flies off on his own.
Goku, Goten and Gohan stay with her. Goten touches her on the shoulder
and she flinches before she realizes who it is.
"Are
you gonna be okay ma'am?"
"He
didn't have to kill him, he---he was a changed man." Goku tries
to talk to her. "I'm sorry, but you really don't understand. He
wiped out the whole Saiy-jin race and Vegeta was the Prince."
Goku
didn't realize that she did know.
She
just replies: "He was a changed man..."
Goku
helps her to her feet. "I think we can find someone to help you
out getting home."
The
Saiy-jins fly her to Dr. Briefs who provides the spacecraft that
finally flies her home. It was a long flight home, and she's been
through so much. She was grateful for the opportunity to see Freeza
again, and knows that someday they will be together. She can feel good
about one thing inside: she did change Freeza to be a good person.
Every night, she prays that one-day she'll hear his voice again in the
night.
"Chelene......"
