Good Bye Goten
By:TrainerRachel
Rachel's note: I'm sorry! I had to do it!!!
This fanfic is mostly about Goku and Goten a few years after Chichi died. What
if Goku went sort of mad because of his loneliness? What if he took it out on
Goten? This is really sad for Goten lovers out there. I am. I really have no
idea why I like to kill off my favorite characters. I'm screwed in the head.

Good Bye Goten
Goten lay in his small closet doing nothing more than breathing because of the
deep cuts in his arms and face. His clothes were torn and shreaded. He had too
many broken bones to count, but he was safe. For now.
It had started two years ago when 14 year old Goten's mother had died of old age
and could not be brought back. It had saddened everyone, but mostly his
father,Goku. When someone tried to come close to him, he pushed them away. He
didn't care when the house was messy, or when Goten started to skip school. He
just hung around the house and ordered Goten to get groceries. Trunks tried to
talk to Goten, but he also pushed him away so their life long friendship slipped
away into the night. Goten would do whatever he pleased and Goku ignored him.
One day Goku snapped. He hit Goten far beyond the level of sparing. He said it
was all his fault Chichi was dead. He then realized what he did and helped
Goten. But he soon turned into his evil self. Each time he did it would last
longer and longer,until one day Goku was no more.
Now, after 3 months of abuse, Goku had gone too far. When Goten tried to protect
himself, Goku hit him in the back and threw him in a closet for two days. He had
denied his broken son of any food or water and had locked the closet and left
the house. Goten remembered the first time his father ever hit him out of rage.
_________________________________________________________________ ____________
(Flash back)
Goten walked home in the dark night. It was far past midnight and close to dawn.
Goten quietly opened the door and snuck in quickly, but was discovered almost
immediately by his father whom was-yet again-waiting for him.
"Where the hell were you, you little piece of crap?! You were suppose to go get
food and come right back! I'm hungry!!" Goku screeched.
Goten glared at his father. He wasn't his goddamn servant. "If you want food,
old man, you can get it yourself!"
Now Goku was pissed. He clenched his fists and glared with cold black eyes that
didn't seem to fit on Goku's innocent face, at his youngest son. Goten glared
back. "How dare you, you little fucker!" Suddenly Goku leaped at a unsuspecting
Goten. "Why don't you come here and take your medicine!" (For those whom have
read 'The Shining', you know where I got the 'medicine' thingy from. I just
couldn't help but put it in there!)
Goku hit Goten in the gut making him fall to the ground clutching is stomach. He
never expected Goku to hit him. He slowly got up to look Goku in the eyes. Big
mistake.
Goku disappeared and reappeared behind Goten and had him in a head lock before
Goten could spot him. He squeezed hard, making it almost impossible to breathe.
"What's wrong punk? Having trouble breathing? You deserve it! It's your fault
she is dead! You killed Chichi! Bastard!!" Screamed Goku as he punched Goten in
the spine.
Goten had never felt such pain before, he felt like his whole world just shut
down and the only thing left was the pain of his spine breaking. Goku let Goten
fall to the ground. Goku laughed of the sheer joy of seeing his fallen son lying
on the floor, paralyzed.
Suddenly, Goku stopped and looked with innocent eyes at his injured son with
fear. 'What had I done?!' Goku thought in terror as tears filled his eyes. Goten
and him may not have been very close, but he never wanted to hurt him!
Goku ran over to Goten and put him in his arms and gave him a senzu bean. Goten
groaned and looked up. He opened his eyes and looked into his father's tear
streaked eyes. 'Why did Dad hit me?' wondered Goten.
"Goten.. I....I'm so sorry!" Goku said as he cried on a confused Goten. Goku
hugged Goten's body till he was fully strong from the senzu bean.
Suddenly, Goku's eye's stopped watering and looked hard and cruel into Goten's
confused and scared eyes. Goku laughed evilly and pulled Goten up by his hair
and threw him through a wall. Goten cried out pathetically.
"Ah, my pathetic little son, did you really think I would let you escape?" Goku
laughed as he walked over to a broken, scared Goten.
________________________________________________________________ _____________
(Present)
Goten tried to move but he was too weak. His spine seemed to have shattered into
a hundred peaces and all Goten could do was breathe and try not to cough as he
shivered without control. Goten vaguely wondered where his older brother was,
but then remembered that he lived in Satan City, far away with his family. He
claimed to be too busy to visit often, but Goten knew the truth. He was afraid
to come.
Goten heard the front door creek open and heard heavy feet clomp into the small
cabin. Goten tried to scrunch up into a little ball to not be detected, but it
didn't matter. He was here.
Goku clomped up the stairs looking for something to take his anger out on. His
eyes settled on the closet. He grinned. It was time to teach the little punk a
lesson. He unlocked the closet and dragged out his skinny son. His skin was
white from lack of sun. 'Time to give the boy his medicine' Thought Goku with a
smirk. 'For the last time.'
Goku kicked Goten in the side making him smack into a wall, with a whispery cry.
The kick pushed all the ribs out of place and punctured Goten's lungs making him
vomit up deep, rich blood. Goten couldn't breath, he felt the familiar copper
taste of blood. He couldn't hear anything but his fathers content laughing at
his dying son.
"What's wrong, you little shit? You have to fend for yourself now that your
little Mom's gone!" Goku called out as he hit Goten in the jaw, making a odd
clicking noise.
Goten could feel himself slipping away into the dark coldness of death. 'Help
me.....oh please, someone help me....' Goten cried out telepathically to no one.
No one cares...
______________________________________________________________ _______________
Trunks had been sitting in his room reading his newly acquired manga he'd
gotten, when he felt a familliar ki flick and slowly die down. He also was sure
he heard a small voice saying: '....help me.....' Trunks searched his memory for
who's voice it was. It was so familiar.
Goten.
Goten was hurt!
Trunks sprang up when he remembered it was his old friend, Goten's voice. Goten
was dying. Trunks flew out his window and charged full speed ahead to save his
dying friend.
_______________________________________________________________ ______________
Goten could no longer feel the pain. All he could see was blood-red vision. His
father stood up and put his foot to Goten's head. " So long my son." He said as
he lifted his foot.
Suddenly, a blur crashed into Goku, making him topple over. A familiar figure
bent down to Goten and said something, but Goten's brain no longer could
decipher it.
___________________________________________________________________ __________
Trunks looked down at Goten. His old friend was a bloody pulp. Trunks was so
amazed that Goten's own father was about to kill him, he almost didn't make it
in time. " Goten, can you hear me?" Trunks asked scared. Goten took no notice.
He just stared into space. He probably didn't even know that there was a steady
stream of blood pouring out of his mouth.
Goku got up, mad as a hornet. " I TOLD YOU PEOPLE TO LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!"
Goku screamed as he punched Trunks in the face, making him fly through the wall.
But Trunks was on his feet once again and disappeared and re-appeared behind
Goku. If Goku had continued training after Chichi's death he would have felt
Trunks' ki. But he had given up on training. . .
Trunks hit Goku in the back of the neck on a pressure point, rendering him
unconscious. He lay on the ground in sleep. This made him appear completely
innocent.
Trunks wasted not a second. He raced over to Goten and carefully picked him up.
Until then Trunks had not noticed how bad it really was.
Trunks could feel that Goten's spin was broken in several places and so were his
ribs. They must have punctured his lungs making his vomit up blood. Blood came
out of his ears as well. Goten's heart was barely going. 'Hold on Goten! Just
hold on!' Trunks spoke telepathically to the unconscious Goten, and flew as fast
as he could to the hospital, while his friend bleed all over his shirt.
________________________________________________________________ _____________
Goten's head was spinning. He could barely hold on. He heard Trunks' words of
encouragement, but it didn't help. 'At least I'll be with Mother.....' Thought
Goten.
Goten no longer could see. It was so cold. So cold...........
_______________________________________________________ ______________________
Goten shivered in Trunks' arms as he reached the hospital. He was like ice in
his arms. Soon doctors and nurses took Goten away on a gurney to the emergency
room.
Trunks sighed and called the whole group of Z warriors, but didn't tell them why
to come. Soon everyone was there, except for Goku. Trunks told them how he had
found Goten and Goku and how bad he looked. This latest news sent the friends
sprawling further into the depths of sadness and despair.
Soon a doctor returned to find a large group pacing around the waiting room. A
few men stared into space, women's faces were tear streaked and puffy. He took a
deep breath and swallowed. This kid was really loved. 'I hate this part.....' He
thought." 'I'm sure Son Goten is going to be fine." A boy with purple hair raced
over him and pulled him up by his shirt.
"Don't lie to me! When I brought him here he was barely alive. Tell me the
truth!" He dropped the doctor on the ground as he caught his breath again. "I'm
sorry, Son Goten isn't gonna make it. I'm suprised he made it to this point. He
has internal bleeding through his lungs, and his spin is broken. I suggest you
all go in to see him. He's got a hour at best."
The doctor grabbed Trunks' arm as he was about to head into Goten's room and
looked into his eyes "How did this happen?" Trunks looked at him with icy blue
eyes and said two simple words. "His father." The doctor let Trunks go and
watched Trunks walk towards Goten's room. The doctor turned around and pulled
out a cell phone. " Operator? Get me the mental institute......Sir, we have a
problem here. You're going to have to see it yourself....
__________________________________________________________ ___________________
Everyone piled into the small room to see Goten half awake, but in a daze. Many
wires were hooked into him and the heart monitor was going slow. Goten shifted
his head slightly to see everyone.
_____________________________________________________________ ________________
Everyone looked sadly at Goten. He thought he caught a tear in Vegeta's cold
black eyes but decided not to think about it. Piccolo looked miserable, Tien and
Chou-zu tried to stay to the back of the crowd. Gohan's clenched his fists and
looked like he was considering evil things he could do to Goku. Little Bra, Pan
and Marron didn't know what was going on. Yamcha, Bulma and Trunks looked like
they were ready to bawl their eyes out. He knew he was going to die. He could
feel it. It would happen soon.
Yamcha came up and knelt by the bed. "Hey buddy! You're looking great, I'll bet
you'll be out of here in no time!" He said in a pathetically fake happy voice.
Goten closed his eyes for a moment then opened them and shook his head slightly,
which came out only as a twitch. Trunks came and sat by his bed. Tears were
filling in his eyes. He knew that Goten knew he was going to die.
"...We'll....we'll get the dragon-*choke* dragonballs!...We'll wish you....back!
You can't die Goten....please don't die...." Trunks whimpered.
Goten knew it was hopeless to wish him back. He'd already been wished back in
the battle of Buu. A single tear fell out of his already clouding eyes.
Goten tried to move his hand, but all he could do was twitch. Trunks understood.
He held Goten's hand, leaned forward and hugged him carefully. The heart monitor
slowed down. "Good bye Goten." Trunks whispered as Goten closed his eyes.
Flat line.
_________________________________________________________________ ____________
Goten felt himself within a warm blanket of air which was pulling him forward.
He no longer hurt. He landed on a warm, solid surface and opened his eyes to
look around.
He was the earth check-in station where dead spirits were formed into lines and
went to be judged. He looked around at the strange house that held King Yemma
within it.
"HEY BUDDY!!! GET INTO LINE!" Yelled a strange purple creature in Goten's ear.
This caused him to jump up into the air. People and strange creatures stared at
Goten causing him to blush and quickly get into line.
'So this is what the after world is like' thought Goten. Somehow he had expected
something more....fancy.
After a long wait in the line, Goten finally made it to King Yemma, whom
recognized him right away as a Z fighter. He was sent to heaven quickly to get
on to others that were pushing in the line.
_________________________________________________________________ ____________
Heaven was huge. It consisted of many different worlds. A one for some quiet and
alone time, one for socializing and playing games, another for just men, and one
for just women. And his favorite of all, a place to spar.
Goten was fitted with a pair of beautiful wings and a halo.
Goten stared in wonder as his instructor told him how to get to the different
sections just by will. Once he was done he waved good bye to his instructor and
decided to go look for his mother. He'd first try the socializing world.
He willed it and he disappeared.
__________________________________________________________ ___________________
Goten reappeared at a busy world full of laughter and joy. He was overwhelmed by
the different spirits that surrounded him.
Another thing Goten noticed, was he didn't need to really breathe here, though
there was air. Strange.
He walked around looking at all the different sites, not having the slightest
clue how he was going to find Chichi in all these people.
Just then he saw an information booth and went up and asked how he could find a
friend here. The old man at the info booth told him to just will to find her in
his mind, and he'd find her.
So Goten closed his eyes and thought about his strong mother. And once again, he
disappeared.
___________________________________________________ __________________________
Chichi sat in a field of daisies looking at the earth through a mirror she had
been given to watch everyone. It looked like a simple mirror, but if you asked
it, it would show you anything you wanted as long as it was in the mortal world.
(Kinda like Beauty and the Beast)
She was extremely saddened because she had seen it all. She was not happy with
the insane Goku. She knew her young son was coming and was happy to see him, but
grief stricken that he didn't even have a chance to go to college.
She shifted her wings impatiently in the hot, but sunless sky, waiting for Goten
to appear to her. She sensed someone pop up behind her. Her shoulders tensed but
relaxed when she felt Goten's presence.
"H-hello Mom" Goten said happily as she turned around and hugged him. She was
just as suprised as he, when she felt her tears sliding down her cheek. How
she'd missed him and Gohan. Goten collapsed into her hug and slightly trembled
with sure relief of being with her again. She noticed he was wearing a nice
light blue gi with no symbols on it. She also was fitted with a different dress
when she came here. It was just part of heaven.
"Sssssssshhhhhhhhhhh..." She said quietly as he steadied himself and let go.
They talked for a long time, catching up on everything, even though Chichi
already knew what had happened because she had seen it all.
She showed Goten the mirror and they watched his funeral sadly as his body was
covered in the cold soil. Trunks' cheeks and eyes were red from crying. All his
friends and family stood there respectfully, except for one.
Goku was tied up and hit with powerful drugs making him dizzy. He was laughing
his head off. "Ah ha ha ha ha! The brat was so pathetic and weak. He didn't
deserve to live!" Soon, two men in white coats carried the sedated saiyan away
to an unknown place with padded walls.
Goten looked frightened at the tall man, even though he couldn't get at him in
heaven, he was still scared him. A dull ache returned to him, even though he was
fine, he still felt the pain of the beatings.
Ignoring Goku, everyone paid there respects and left for their homes. Only two
people remained. Gohan and Trunks.
They stood there the whole night to honor their brother and best friend. As
Gohan looked down at a stream running peacefully near his brother's tomb, he
thought he saw a reflection of something with black hair and the sweetest smile.
Gohan looked up and saw Goten and Chichi smiling down at him in heaven. They had
the most beautiful wings and seemed to radiate heavenly light.
Gohan smiled and walked home to his wife and daughter, knowing that they'd be
there waiting and watching over him and his family always.

"HEY BUDDY!!! GET INTO LINE!" Yelled a strange purple creature in Goten's ear.
This caused him to jump up into the air. People and strange creatures stared at
Goten causing him to blush and quickly get into line.
'So this is what the after world is like' thought Goten. Somehow he had expected
something more....fancy.
After a long wait in the line, Goten finally made it to King Yemma, whom
recognized him right away as a Z fighter. He was sent to heaven quickly to get
on to others that were pushing in the line.

Heaven was huge. It consisted of many different worlds. A one for some quiet and
alone time, one for socializing and playing games, another for just men, and one
for just women. And his favorite of all, a place to spar.
Goten was fitted with a pair of beautiful wings and a halo.
Goten stared in wonder as his instructor told him how to get to the different
sections just by will. Once he was done he waved good bye to his instructor and
decided to go look for his mother. He'd first try the socializing world.
He willed it and he disappeared.
__________________________________________________________ ___________________
Goten reappeared at a busy world full of laughter and joy. He was overwhelmed by
the different spirits that surrounded him.
Another thing Goten noticed, was he didn't need to really breathe here, though
there was air. Strange.
He walked around looking at all the different sites, not having the slightest
clue how he was going to find Chichi in all these people.
Just then he saw an information booth and went up and asked how he could find a
friend here. The old man at the info booth told him to just will to find her in
his mind, and he'd find her.
So Goten closed his eyes and thought about his strong mother. And once again, he
disappeared.

Chichi sat in a field of daisies looking at the earth through a mirror she had
been given to watch everyone. It looked like a simple mirror, but if you asked
it, it would show you anything you wanted as long as it was in the mortal world.
(Kinda like Beauty and the Beast)
She was extremely saddened because she had seen it all. She was not happy with
the insane Goku. She knew her young son was coming and was happy to see him, but
grief stricken that he didn't even have a chance to go to college.
She shifted her wings impatiently in the hot, but sunless sky, waiting for Goten
to appear to her. She sensed someone pop up behind her. Her shoulders tensed but
relaxed when she felt Goten's presence.
"H-hello Mom" Goten said happily as she turned around and hugged him. She was
just as suprised as he, when she felt her tears sliding down her cheek. How
she'd missed him and Gohan. Goten collapsed into her hug and slightly trembled
with sure relief of being with her again. She noticed he was wearing a nice
light blue gi with no symbols on it. She also was fitted with a different dress
when she came here. It was just part of heaven.
"Sssssssshhhhhhhhhhh..." She said quietly as he steadied himself and let go.
They talked for a long time, catching up on everything, even though Chichi
already knew what had happened because she had seen it all.
She showed Goten the mirror and they watched his funeral sadly as his body was
covered in the cold soil. Trunks' cheeks and eyes were red from crying. All his
friends and family stood there respectfully, except for one.
Goku was tied up and hit with powerful drugs making him dizzy. He was laughing
his head off. "Ah ha ha ha ha! The brat was so pathetic and weak. He didn't
deserve to live!" Soon, two men in white coats carried the sedated saiyan away
to an unknown place with padded walls.
Goten looked frightened at the tall man, even though he couldn't get at him in
heaven, he was still scared him. A dull ache returned to him, even though he was
fine, he still felt the pain of the beatings.
Ignoring Goku, everyone paid there respects and left for their homes. Only two
people remained. Gohan and Trunks.
They stood there the whole night to honor their brother and best friend. As
Gohan looked down at a stream running peacefully near his brother's tomb, he
thought he saw a reflection of something with black hair and the sweetest smile.
Gohan looked up and saw Goten and Chichi smiling down at him in heaven. They had
the most beautiful wings and seemed to radiate heavenly light.
Gohan smiled and walked home to his wife and daughter, knowing that they'd be
there waiting and watching over him and his family always.
