It had been a year since that happened. The young saiyan brushed his fingers through his short hair his mother butchered, in an attempt to make him resemble his brother to replace him. After going through the unspeakable things his mother did to him, the same way as Gohan, Goten didn't question anything anymore, his mother couldn't change, he didn't know why he ever thought he had a chance to make things right, if he just would've listened to Gohan maybe he'd still be here.

Chichi attempted to hide her trail using Bulma's grief. After that failed she tries to kidnap Goten and run away. Luckily for Goten Videl saves him from a tormented future. Here he is in the hands of the police to fill in some blanks.

"I'm sorry you had to come back Goten but we need more information about your mother."

The police brought back Goten after putting his mother in prison.

"Why, what more do you need?"

"It turns out your mother might have been in even more trouble than we thought. Do you know anyone by the name of Maron?"

"Krillin's daughter?"

"No, another Maron, with one r."

"Maron…? One with blue hair?" The young saiyan remembers his big brother telling him about Krillin's ex once, and how ridiculous she was.

"Yes her." The detective points out.

"I never met her. What my brother used to tell me is that she had a lot of boyfriends with her, she used to date Krillin he said but she was always gone."

"Has she met your mother?"

"My brother told me she called our mom old and she was very angry."

"Uhuh." The detective scribbles in his pad. "What about a girl name Angela."

"Angela…?"

"Do you know her?"

"She went on a date with Gohan once."

"From what we were told, she went on that date and never came home."

"Really?"

"By any chance did she also meet your mother?"

"No she didn't, I do remember my mom followed them on their date."

"She followed them?"

The young saiyan shakes his head,

"I was left alone at home that day, well I snuck out to go to Trunks' house. She came back before Gohan did."

"Tell me, did she look out of the ordinary, like tired, stressed, anything."

"She did look tired, as if she ran a lot."

"I understand."

"Detective, can I ask you something?"

"Of course."

"Did you find my grandpa yet?"

The detective paused for a moment.

"No… we still haven't found him."

"What's gonna happen to me? Am I going to be alone."

"You won't. Luckily your friend's father, has decided to take you in."

"Vegeta?"

"He finished the paperwork so you guys are all set now."

"If you do find my grandpa, you'll tell me, right…?"

"We will."

It was hard looking into his mother's face after everything that's happened. Vegeta wanted them to face their fears.

"Vegeta, why do we have to visit them." Goten asks him.

"That woman made your life a living hell for you, show her no fear." He growled.

Goten looks at his friend who is clearly also confused with his father's choice. They both can feel the anger emanating from him, but who wouldn't be angry when someone you love was taken away.

.

"My my Goten just look how much you've grown." Chichi was bound in handcuffs. After her last visit she lost her privilege of even a handshake.

"Fix your hair dear it looks all messy. I wouldn't blame you if this is Vegeta's choice of hair style." She glares at the prince.

"It's fine Mom…"

"Fix it now Goten, even in these cuffs I'm still your mother." she says it in a way that made your skin crawl.

The half saiyan looks down,

"Since when…?" Goten muttered under his breath.

"What was that honey?" Chichi responds.

Goten lifts his head. "You didn't do anything to Grandpa right?"

"Ah...hahaha!" His mother's laugh made him uneasy."

"Oh Goten, it's clear Vegeta's been feeding you lies."

"Please, answer my question…"

"No I didn't."

.

"She's lying Trunks, I know it." the two friends talked after they got back.

"Of course she's lying Goten, we all know that. Don't tell me you still think your Mom's okay after everything she did especially to you, Gohan, and my mom."

"I... don't know… I don't know what to think anymore. I'm just trying to figure out what happened to my grandpa."

"I wouldn't be surprised if she also killed him."

"Don't even joke about that. Besides, I don't think Grandpa would let himself get killed that easily."

"Pfft, yeah sure, after the way Gohan was fooled I wouldn't be surprised the same thing… would've...happened to him…" Trunks' looks at his friend with distraught written all over his face.

"Trunks we have to find him."

"What?"

"Help me find him."

"Now? But we just got back."

"Please Trunks I'm begging you!"

.

The two friends searched near his home.

"Not here, I can't sense anything familiar."

"What about your Mom's house?" Trunks tells him.

"You think he's there?"

"Think about it. The police said the last place he was at is your Mom's place and you told me after that day you guys never saw him again."

"Let's go." Goten flies off.

Both boys sped their way returning to the Son residence.

.

.

As both Saiyan's reach over there, they couldnt believe what they were witnessing.

"Trunks what's going on?!" Goten panics seeing the sight of police cars and lights flashing everywhere with yellow tape wrapped all over the house, the backyard, and a couple feet away from the yard.

"All the cops are in the garden." Trunks points out.

Goten notices the large amount of police officers and paramedics gathered near their garden.

After touching the ground with the tips of their foot they race towards the large groups of cops.

One of them sees the pair running towards them. "Hey, you kids aren't supposed to be here!"

Goten ignores the man and pushes and shoves anyone out of the way.

"Somebody stop that kid!"

One of them grabs Goten but the Saiyan is easily able to slip out of their grasp.

"Let me go this was my house, my garde-" The young saiyan froze seeing a large hole near their garden. In that hole remains a very large skeletal spooking the Saiyan and the clothes it was wearing looked terribly familiar, especially that cap with the horns.

"What is that?!" He shrieked. Trunks gasps. Goten continues to yell,

"What is it, get it out of the garden! Get it away from my home!"

"Goten!"

"Trunks, what is it?!"

"Goten, they found him… they found your grandpa..." Trunks looked serious.

"No… NO! You're lying, it's not him!" Goten screams out. Tears start coming out of his eyes. He looks back at the haunting sight that used to be his grandfather and started to wail on Trunks' shoulder, then fell to the ground. The other Saiyan didn't know what to do at a moment like this so he just held his friend together as best he can.

.

.

.

"We're really sorry about your grandfather." Another detective gives her condolences.

"How did this happen…?"

"The coroner found blood on his clothes… Are you sure you want me to tell you Goten?"

"Please... just say it...tell me."

"There was a large stain of blood in his middle section, he'd been cut somewhere on his torso by a large blade that we found with him."

"Who did this?" Goten already had his answer, he just wants confirmation.

"Your mother's fingerprints were found on that blade."

"Thank you detective, that's all I wanted to hear."

Goten couldn't handle the thought of his mother after that whole mess. After he calmed down he decides to see his mother, before he did though he takes a look in the bathroom mirror. He still sees Gohan.

"I can't look like this he thought." Goten notices Vegeta pass by,

"Vegeta wait."

"What is it?"

"Can you cut my hair?"

"What?"

"Cut my hair. I can't stand how it looks anymore."

"Okay." The prince didn't question no more.

.

Goten decides to go by himself this time.

"Oh Goten darling I haven't seen you in weeks…. Goten!" Chichi was horrified seeing Goten with a different hair style.

"What did you do to your hair?!"

Vegeta gave Goten a modern hairstyle most guys were sporting right now, a usual fade.

"I changed it."

" I gave you beautiful hair, how could you do this to me?!"

"You can't do anything to me Mom you're in jail."

The young saiyan gives her a blank stare.

Chichi just remembered she's still in cuffs so she can't do anything to him.

"You look like a homo!"

"And you're a crazy psycho."

"What did you say to me?! You have no right to speak to me that way I am your mother!"

One of the guards comes in between them.

"Sir, do you want me to restrain her?"

"No! It's fine, let her say what she wants." Goten finally stands up to her.

"Since when were you my mom?! You've abused me my entire life, you only treated me nice after you killed Gohan!"

"I did not kill Gohan, Vegeta did!"

"And guess what, they finally found Grandpa in our garden!"

Chichi stood still for a moment.

"And from what the cops told me it looks like they're going to add more years for you, and I am glad they will."

Chichi gave her son a death stare. Goten continues.

"You've been ruining everybody's life when you forced Dad into marrying you, you've killed innocent people and got Bulma involved in your sick plans, I hope you rot in jail for the rest of your life!"

"You've got some nerve you demon seed, you're the same as that deadbeat dad of yours. You're lucky I still need you to make me another Gohan to replace you."

"Lucky…? I still need you? I'm not coming back here, this is my last time seeing you again. After this visit you're not my mom anymore. You're just going to be Chichi to me. A crazy murderous psychotic hag I used to know in prison…" Goten smiles a bit.

"You won't leave me, you need me you've got no one, who in hell would ever want you?"

"Anyone who's glad to finally see you behind bars. Goten responds. "Goodbye Chichi." Goten walks away.

"Wait just a minute!" Chichi screams.

"I'm not done with you! You're not leaving me until I get pregnant from you you little sperm bank! You can't stand being far from me I'm everything you ever dreamed, have you forgotten all the times we spent in bed together! They way we caressed each other as we fucked our bodies together, did you forget?!"

The young saiyan grew disgusted as his mother described his rape.

"Face it you little freak you want me, I'm the only girl you'll ever need. You think Videl would want your worthless ass, I'm the only girl you'll ever fuck in your life, you need me!"

Goten continues to walk away.

"You need me Goten, you'll come back to me, I know it. And when you do you'll fuck me like the animal that you are!" Her voice echoed the hall as he kept walking. As he got outside the prison he gagged then threw up on the sidewalk from the words that woman spat out.

Meanwhile in the other world...

"Gohan." Goku runs to him.

"You look happy, what's going on Dad?"

"King Kai told me that Goten finally stood up to your mother. He's cut ties with her."

"Really, Goten did that?"

"Yeah. They police finally found the Ox King so Chichi's going to get even more time in prison."

"That's great Dad. How's Vegeta?"

"Good, he still misses you a lot."

"Ah of course."

"Son, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for putting you and your brother in the middle of this. I know I hadn't been there for you. I just thought your mother was trying to raise you right but I guess I trusted her too much. I shouldn't have gotten married too quickly."

"You mean you should've confessed to Bulma before my Mom came along."

"I guess if you want to put it that way." Goku laughs.

"But in all seriousness Dad, I should've told you the way Mom was acting funny towards me. If I did maybe this could've been avoided. Actually all our friends knew way before we did."

"That's true."

"I wish we can tell them how sorry we are."

"Well, maybe you can."

"What do you mean?"

"You'll see."

A soft glow envelopes Gohan.

"Huh? What's going on? Dad?"

"I wanted to make things right. I've always wanted to make you boys happy and I never got the chance to show that. If Shenron can't bring you back maybe Porunga could."

Gohan couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Wait, did you…"

"I asked Dende for some help, he was able to reach to his homeplanet and collect the dragonballs from there.

"Dad… I don't know what to say…"

"Just enjoy your life son, it's what I always wished for you now go get married!"

"Dad, I love you…" Gohan completely vanishes.

"I love you too son."

Well folks that's it for now. Sorry if the story wasn't that exciting this year. With the two-three last stories I wrote... How can I put it...? Most of the scenes that weren't there, I really didn't want to retype it the third time. If I did it would've just been the same story again. I wanted to add some new stuff into this one, even if it's just a little. That said I think I'm gonna need a break from the story for a while. To keep up with my job, and to figure out how to end this story with a bang. I will tell you this Chichi will pay in the next one. I wish you guys a great day.
