the boy's body. Kyoko knelt down. After taking a quick look at him, loud crying could be heard from her direction. Kyoko ran a trembling hand over his eyes. Bulma and ChiChi looked away. They had never seen a person die before. Kyoko tried awkwardly to move the protruding arm into a reasonable position. Goku went to her, ready to help. He bent Mizuchi's arm down and covered his face with his jacket. Then he put his arm around the distraught girl and brought her back close to the others."We'll wake him up," he whispered to her.


"He betrayed you!", Vegeta stated unaffected. "Why are you crying for this coward?"


"He was a ... a person. No matter what he did, nobody is allowed to take someone's life just like that, nobody ... not even me ...", Kyoko managed to get out, then she fell on her knees sobbing . She covered her face with her hands. Gotenks put his hand on her shoulder. In his strangely distorted voice that seemed to come from two throats, he said: "I promise you, he will pay for it. Nobody kills people with impunity, not even a puffed up spaceship captain."


"It's not about that," Kyoko replied slowly. "It's because ... I killed. And now he kills and I condemn him for it. But if I take revenge for killing, I would have to take revenge on myself ... I'm no better than him ... "


"Yes, you are," said Gotenks resolutely. "You killed to save your life from someone who wanted to kill you.He killed because he wanted to. The difference is so great that it cannot be put into words. Maybe your heart has yet to learn, but your mind knows. "


With these words Gotenks turned back to his opponent. Out of the corner of his eye he saw movement. He couldn't follow her. When he looked back to where Katra had been floating a few minutes ago, the man was gone. Gotenks turned around, cursing. The fight had started.




This part is a little shorter than the others, but I thought it was part of taking a break just before the final fight. I hope no one is angry with me about it. I also hurry * give my honor *.
