~~Tokyo, Japan~~

Goju's POV

________

I flew back to my place, after butchering the men that killed my mother. I couldn't find myself to forgive them.

So I killed them in cold blood.

No mercy.

No thought.

All in pure rage, and bloodlust.

They got what came to them. This must be a sign. My destiny. I must find other criminals, and punish them, accordingly.

But, before all that. I'll need a change of clothes. The pajamas I'm wearing ripped, and now most of my body is exposed to the wind and rain.

I stretched my wings, and flew back home, watching the clouds clear up, and reveal the night sky, which was filled with stars.

The wind whipped against my face, as I picked up the pace, and began flying at a downward angle.

I stretched my wings, as I ascended.

As soon as I landed, my wings sunk into my back, and disappeared. My skin also returned to normal.

I ran in, and changed into a T-shirt, jeans, a black hoodie, and a pair of sneakers. I walked back downstairs, and kneeled beside my mom.

"Mom... I miss you already." I said, and held her closely. Tears streaked my cheeks, as I began to sob.

I heard sirens from outside, as red and blue lights brightened the doorway. "Freeze! Huh?" The policeman looked at me, with a bit of shock.

"What happened, kid?" A female officer asked. I hugged her, letting every held-in sob cry out into her shirt.

She seemed surprised, as she held me.

"Shhh. We'll find you a new home. Alright?" She looked at me, with her bright hazel eyes.

"No." I murmured.

"What?" She responded, taken aback.

"I don't want a new home!" I stood up, letting my anger vent out. All of my muscles flexed, as my wings began to sprout from my back.

"W-W-Wha-?" She stammered, as I began to tower over her. She stood up, and reached for her gun.

"RRAAAGGHH!!" I grabbed her arm, and began to pull on it with my other hand.

"My arm!! Let Go!!" She screamed. I heard a loud crack, and dropped her to the ground, screaming in pain.

Her partner pulled out a taser, and shot me, hoping to bring me down.

It didn't work.

I shrugged it off, and roared in his face, showing my fangs and dragon wings to him.

After he was frozen in fear, I picked him up by the legs, and flung him to the door. He hit his back, and was killed on impact. A blood splat gave me the idea.

I turned to the screaming girl, and picked her up.

"NO!! LEAVE ME ALONE!! LEA-"

I bir her head off, making a loud crunch noise. I chewed it up, savouring the meat and bones.

Now that I mention it, they taste pretty good...

I ate the rest of her, along with her partner. After that, my stomach began to rumble.

"I'm still hungry..." I said, and licked my lips. I smashed the wall down, and took flight again.

This time, I went into the woods........ and hunted.

*1 hour later*

Goju's POV

________

After my belly was filled, I found a cave, and decided to rest for the night.

I found one, and threw the bear out, along with her kids. I grabbed a few pine branches, and laid them across the stone floor. I lied down, and fell asleep.

*Dream World*

___________

I opened my eyes amd found myself in a room. Or, a bedroom at least. The walls were made of steel, and the floor has a red rug, all the way to the corners. I'm sitting at a desk, with a lamp, and a laptop sitting there.

A soft bed is in the corner, and a painting of a lake hangs above the bed.

The door opened, and a female figure closed it behind her. "Goju!" She called, and hugged me. Then, I recognized her! The girl from before!

"I'm sorry that I didn't introduce myself earlier. My name is Sariah Nicole Time." I raised an eyebrow. "Time? What a weird last nane." I replied.

"Oh, everybody says that. I'm Father Time's daughter." Whaaaaaaaaaat!?!?

"I know it sounds crazy. Look!" She showed me her wrist device. "See this? This is how I was able to contact you! This was made by my dad! Same with yours." I examined mine, closely.

"I know you're having a rough time, right now." She placed her hand on my shoulder, comforting me.

"Just remember that I'm here for you, okay?" She stated, and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I then held her, and gave her a passionate, loving kiss on the lips. Her eyes widened, then she closed them, embracing my loving kiss.

We seperated our lips, and looked into each other's eyes, for a moment. Then she said "You don't know me all that much, yet you kissed me. Why?"

I thought for a moment, and said "You're the closest thing I have to a girlfriend. Well, you could be." I blushed, a little.

"Goju-chan..." She said, and rested her head onto my shoulder.

*End of dream*

I opened my eyes to see that I was lying down in a bunch of pine needles. But, I also noticed that Sariah was on my shoulder, fast asleep.

She's like me. She doesn't want to be alone. She wants someone to care for.

Someone to love. And that lucky guy is me.

That day, I swore to protect those who were dear to me. To never leave a person alone ever again.
