The Man who killed my mother... part 1
During her rule, Lilith had turned me and I turned my soon to be wife. Despite all my will and power I couldn't fight Lilith. Her song flooded my mind and controlled me… Vlad sent me away and I found my brothers asking them to kill me. They did not. They caged me instead and after I found myself freed again… I found Vlad and asked him to kill me only to encounter Brolly. He tore me apart but let me live… When the Sun returned and Lilith was defeated, I had a bit more control. However the thirst for blood was overwhelming… My love and I hid in a warehouse away from the sun… Father came for me, however I am not sure why. He too refused to kill me… Karen lost control attacking my brother as I ended up losing control, attacking father… Father managed to knock me and Karen out… We woke I am not sure how many hours later…. In fact it could have been days… I am not sure… Gohan had looked like he had been in one hell of a fight…. "Gohan kill us before we loose what ever was left our us to these animals we have become. The thirst and hunger it is…. Kill us!" I tried to reason as I foamed at the mouth like a rapid dog… Gohan looked at my brother Trunks, "These are the darts Blade gave me. They are suppose to have the cure." Before I could say anything Trunks shot one dart at me and another at Karen…. I howled in pain and Karen fell unconscious in some kind of seizure… I soon followed…. For days and nights I was trapped in this nightmare, my mind and inner self was divided… In my mind I was fighting …. Myself…. The Vampire that was intruding and set up its occupancy with in me was fighting with who I was before… I relived horrors of my past… I relived my deeds as the Grim Reaper, my biddings for Victor. I relived my life in Thailand as a slave and the things I did to survive… I relived the feelings of abandonment and resentment I had developed for my brother and father… I fought against it.. This wasn't who I was, not anymore. Or was it? My mind was chaotic and unclear…. The Vampire I had become clung to my mind trying to remain and not be evicted… Then I saw my mother, she was singing, working in the diner… She was taking the trash out to the dumpster when a criminal was running from the police ducked in that very same alley… I saw the cop and his face as he shot my mom, thinking she was the criminal. All the feelings of anger and hatred for the law came bubbling up… Finally I woke I was cured of the Vampirism…. I am not sure how many days had past… Karen was still fighting… I went to her whispering in her ear.. Soon she too was cured… Bulma examined Karen and me… "Cain, you are awfully quiet," My father's wife observed… I remained silent and shrugged… Bulma left and Karen and I was free to go home… I sat in the dark thinking…. I called the West City police… I wanted to confront the man that killed my mother…. They told me he had been transferred to LA… California…. I woke Karen, "Karen, we are moving.." Karen turn groggily, "What? But … Where? Why?" "LA, we leave tomorrow." I said and walked out the door… The next day Karen had paid a moving company to pack our things and move them to storage until we could find a house in LA. She talked to her sister Kristy who didn't want to quit Capsule Corp or leave West City. It would seem she is staying…. I went to see my father, Karen followed, her eyes questioning why I was doing this… As I walked in I saw that Father and Bulma were having a private moment so I decided to respect them by not interrupting… I went to visit Bra, I found Gohan with her…. "Well how you feeling Cabain. " she asked all smiles and sunshine… "Bra, I need you to do me a favor. I need you to return this to our father, I wanted to do it face to face but he and Bulma are… they can't be disturbed and Karen and I have a plane to catch…." I lifted the Sayian armor… "Cabain why are you returning… wait did you say plane?" Bra asked… Karen began asking a ton of questions as well, "Cain? That armor means the world to you? Why are you giving it… " Gohan stepped forward, "Cabain?" "During my time with Lilith, father contacted her. I was there, I heard what he had to say. I do not blame him though Gohan, your father once told me I had to take some responsibility for things I had done and who I had become. He was right. The fault is mine not fathers. I thought he had sent the armor because …. It seems without meaning to I have in some way used my blood and that I am Sayian to ransom or guilt father into giving me something he doesn't think I deserve or that he wants me to have. " Bra and Gohan tried to interrupt, "no it's okay. He said I was nothing more than a disappointment, he has every right to feel that way. I can not change my past or who I was but I must face the truth. Vegeta will never accept me or see me as his son. In his eyes, only Bra and Trunks are his true children." "That isn't true…" Bra began to sob… "Sadly it is, Bra. I heard him and I was there when the ghost of Bardock agreed with him. I have fought all my life to be Sayian but the truth is I am also half-human. I am here because I have Sayian blood not because Vegeta thinks I belong, not because he embraces me as a son. He was made to feel as if he was obligated. This again was my fault, my pride and foolish thinking that because I had Sayian blood because he was my father that I deserved ….. I do not. In Vegeta's and the older Sayians eyes I do not belong here and therefore will never be welcomed. Again this is my fault, had I chose another path….. but I didn't. Karen and I are moving to LA, where I will continue my life without my Sayian citizenship or immunity. " I pushed the armor into Bra's hands, "Be sure to return this to where it does belong." "Don't do this Cabain… without being a member of the Sayian…." Gohan stepped forward… Bra unable to speak. I sighed, "but Gohan I never really was a part of it. I couldn't find your father thank him for his words of wisdom so long ago… Also give this letter to Miari, I couldn't find him either. one last thing, Goten is a good boy, just naive. He is your brother, don't be mad at him long. I was foolish to let my anger and bitterness come between my brother and me and now Trunks will never embrace me as his brother, sadly. " I shook Gohan's hand… I kissed Bra's forehead. "Both of you with Karen have always had faith in me and I thank you. I have some other business to take care of so I must go to LA." Karen and I took our leave, while Karen said good-bye to Kristy, I spoke to Trunks… "Cain what are you doing here? Look I am busy, I have a lot of…" Trunks snapped obviously unhappy to see me… "I won't keep you long I know you are busy. I just wanted to say," I began to say calmly and then Trunks interrupted… "Whatever Cain, I don't have time for you okay… " Trunks walked out and away… "good-bye brother." I stated… "Not that you will miss me." I set the gift for him on his desk. Karen and I then caught our plane to LA. "Cain, what business do you have?" Karen asked… "Don't ask questions you won't like the answers too," I said grimly looking at the picture of the policeman while thinking of my mom. I crumbled the photo in my fist… After finding a home, I left Karen begging me not to go… I found the old cop sitting in a bar… As I walked in the bar he took a quick glance at me and then looked down into his glass, "So you come here to kill me? What took you so long?" I said nothing I just walked up to him… " What are you waiting for?" he said looking up me in a drunken stoop. "You know me?" I asked… "Yeah, you’re the boy of the woman I killed many years ago." He poured himself another drink "They tell me you got kicked off because of your drinking…." I said "Look kid save the lecture, just do what you came to do…" He sneered… "As you wish…. You killed my mother…" I stated… [meanwhile back at West City, Labels: Poster: Cabain |
