Dragon Ball Z: Between Two Worlds (SPOILERS, +18, MA?)

[Bardock]

"Baseball?" Yamcha sounded a little surprised at first, but he laughed softly, "Sure, kiddo! I'll teach you how to play baseball! We'll have to ask everyone else to help us, though. Playing with only two people isn't very fun."

 

"How'd you hear about baseball, Rexyl? Was it in something you read?" Krillen smiled on the other end.

 

Goku had been stuffing his face while they spoke, and he finally stopped, swallowing the bite before he looked up at Rexyl, smiling, "I read to him a lot in the first few days.. it's kinda how we connected."

 

Piccolo smirked, "Didn't know Goku COULD read."

 

Goku blinked softly before scowling as he heard everyone laugh, "Hey, be nice!! I can read, you jerk!!"

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Rexyl's eyes brighten up when Yamcha agrees the baseball idea, a huge grin now on his lips. "YAY! THANK YOU SO MUCH YAMCHA!" He bounces a bit in his chair, then stills when he hears Krillen's question. "Um, first Goku read about it, then Nyx told me that Yamcha played. I think I is so cool. We have games and sports back on Xeros, but they are not as cool as baseball."

 

Hearing the comments about Goku and reading, he tilts his head slightly. Why would they say mean things like that? Was it weird Goku could read?

 

"Hey, Goku-nii is a good reader. You should listen to him sometime. He helped me learn things!" Smiling at Goku, he finishes hs food, and pushes away the empty plate. He wondered what was going to happen next, were they going to go to the store or not.

[Bardock]

Goku smiled, blushing softly, before he leaned over, talking into the phone, "See? Goku's a GOOD reader! So tell Piccolo-" he stuck out his tongue and blew a loud raspberry. He took the plates to the sink and rinsed them before putting them in the dishwasher.

 

Piccolo's laugh could be heard, "Yeah, I dare you to do the same thing when we're face to face again."

 

"Yeah, I'm not dumb enough to fall for that again." He sat behind Rexyl, massaging his hips with his hands, "You'll grab my tongue again."

 

"When it's stuck in my direction, I assume its mine for the taking."

 

Bardock's voice came over the phone then, "Me and Piccolo are gonna go back with Nexus. Don't destroy my house."

 

"That happened one time!!" Goku shook his head, "AND it was an accident!!"

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Rexyl just laughs at the whole conversation, it was amusing to listen to in his opinion. After the whole little argument was over with, he smiles more, surprised to hear that Goku had actually destroyed the house, that it wasn't just something to poke fun.

 

"Bye Bye Bardock, Bye Piccolo! Take good care of Nyx!" Once those two had actually left, he looked to Goku, after staring at the phone for a moment. He shrugs for no reason, making a shooshing noise by pressing one finger to his lips, before reaching out and poking at the part that you spoke into. Concentrating, he sends a bit of energy, and after a moment...

 

A loud crackling sound could be heard on the other end, as if there was lightning on that side, and he giggles. True, where Krillen and Yamcha were there would be what looked like an electrical orb flowing from the receiver of the phone, but it would disappear soon enough.

 

"Hehe...anyways...Goku-nii, are we going out to the store...?"

[Bardock]

Goku laughed softly before he moved closer to Rexyl, holding him around the Shoulders, "Do you want to go now, or later? Can you still not walk? I suppose I could let you ride in the cart, if not." He rubbed the back of his head a little, cringing softly.

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

"I can walk, just not that good I guess." He blushes a bit at the thought of being pushed around in a cart, and it was a little embarassing really. "I'll just use the side of the cart as a support, that should be fine...right?" To be honest, it took all of his effort to even stand, but at least he could do that much now, instead of like before, and he couldn't even sit up properly on his own without any help.

 

"I really want to go, so this little setback will not matter. Do not worry about it, okay Goku-nii?" Then he remembered something, and grinned, before pulling out that ornate wooden box from the folds of his kimono where he'd slipped it into earlier before they'd left the bedroom to eat.

 

"Do you want to see now? I promised I would show you." He grinned, though Rexyl felt a little nervous, he'd never actually willingly shown anyone his weapon before, it was kind of...different. And one really wouldn't think of it as a weapon really, though in all reality, it was very, VERY unique, and quite special.

[Bardock]

Goku stood, nodding to Rexyl. As he walked towards the room, pulling on some blue jeans, he looks back up at Rexyl as he removed the box from uts hiding place. He smiled then, his eyes lighting up with excitement, "Yeah, I definitely want to see!!"

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

A big smile forms upon Rexyl's face to match that of Goku's, before nodding, and pulling the ornate lid off of the box, revealing what appeared to be a regular, plain Japanese styled folding fan, though it was slightly bigger than the usual fans, had a tassel hanging from the end, and it seemed to be made from a rather unusual type of wood, which would later turn out to be not wood, but diamond strong bone.

 

Pulling it from the box, he opens it, revealing a design of a nine tailed pure white fox upon it, similar to the tattoo that was upon Rexyl's stomach. "See? Isn't it cool?" He grins, and then no doubt surprise Goku by what he does next. Waving it slightly, six silver sharp objects slide out from the folds of the fan, appearing to be needles. He places them in between each of his fingers, holding them in place by making his hand into a fist.

 

"My needle blades. The fan can also be used as a weapon, so it is pretty cool. I can use my ki and make the fan grow in size, and so on. But...yeah..." He blushes, not sure of what to say now. Hoping Goku wouldn't laugh at his weapon, knowing quite well they looked rather pathetic.

 

"So...what do you think?"

 

 

 

[Bardock]

Goku looked totally intrigued by the fan in Rexyl's hands. He leaned over the table, trying to get a better look at this fan that he was holding. After a moment, Goku raised a brow, opening his mouth to ask if it did anything. Immediately he pulled himself back, away once the needles shot out. Even though he was no where near it, he could feel the prick of needles against his skin. He shivered, jumping away and he laughed slightly, "Th-They they they those are needles."

 

Goku then rubbed his cheek, trying not to freak out from the sharp points of the needles, "Did it get me? I feel like it got me." He rubbed his cheek before bending over, catching his breath. It was all in his head now, and to a random person, his reaction would be quite humorous, "It-Its cool. Really, it is. Even if its got those.. sharp.. pointy little things that pierce through skin.."

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Seeing the reaction that he'd gotten from Goku over his weapon confused Rexyl slightly. Was there something about the needles that frightened or disturbed the other? That was what he was feeling as he looked at the expression on Goku's face, and heard the question that was asked of him. "No, it did not get you..." He replies, lowering the needles from eye level, to tilt his head slightly as he gazed upon the one in front of him.

 

"Um, are you okay?" He asks, only slightly amused by what he was seeing. "You know, they are not just needles...they are blades as well...see?" He holds out his finger, and slides one of the "needles" across the tip of his forefinger, and at first as he pulled it away, nothing happened, until a fine, thin line of crimson appeared. "They are really, REALLY sharp...my wind helps keep them honed, same with the lightning..."

 

After showing that, he slips the six needle blades back into the folds of the fan, then closes that as well, placing it back into the box, and then the whole thing into the space in his kimono. "Well, um...now that I showed you that...do you, uh...want to go and shop for groceries?"

[Bardock]

Goku watched, his eyes never leaving the needles as Rexyl placed them back in the folds of the fan. He let out a breath, telling himself they were gone now. He smiled again, shaking his head, "You must think I'm insane.. I'm sorry, I... kind of have a little... thing... about needles." After a hand was moved across his hair, he sighed again, "Okay, complete honesty: its a big thing. Lo ke, a REALLY big thing. And those, um... blades or whatever kinda, you know.. freaked me out, so..." he laughed again, but was slightly trembling.

 

Goku knew he needed to elaborate, but he was having the trouble of finding the right words. Then he looked back up, "Some people are scared of the dark. Some people are scared of spiders. I happen to... be scared of needles. I hate them. They easily prick the skin and have little freakin holes and UGH!!" he shakes a little, sighing, "Yeah.. I'm ready now that I've totally made a fool of myself.."

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Listening to what he was told, he made a mental note to himself to never bring out his weapon again around Goku, as it seemed he was definitely, as he kept saying, deadly terrified of needles. Hearing this being said to him made Rexyl feel bad about showing the other his fan, but there was nothing he could really do about it. "I am sorry. I will not bring them out again, alright?" He smiles apologetically at Goku, before struggling to his feet again from sitting in the chair.

 

"Well, let us go...it will help you calm down, yes? Get your mind off of...things..." He smiles a bit more, and giggles softly. "And do not worry, you did not make a fool of yourself." He held out his hand to the other, waiting to get going and do the one thing they had kept putting off, and to make things easier on Nexus and Bardock.

 

"Now then, lead the way!!!" he smiles even brighter, as he'd never been to a grocery store before, and was actually quite looking forward to going.

[Bardock]

Goku had pulled on his blue shirt and his boots as he watched Rexyl. After holding a hand out, Goku took it and smiled, "Don't worry. I'm good now." He headed for the door with Rexyl by his side and took off into the air once Rexyl wrapped his arms around him. "I grabbed what looked like Nexus' list. It's not very long, so I think we can carry it ourselves."

 

Goku soared through the air with Rexyl in his arms, and he couldn't help but smile as he realized that this would be the first thing they both did together as a 'couple'. A few minutes seemed to pass as Goku saw the roof of the local grocery store. Goku landed in the front of the store and as he was lowering Rexyl to the ground, he heard a familiar voice:

 

"Dude!!"

 

Goku turned his head as one of the grocery store workers was standing against the wall, wearing a white T-shirt, blue jeans, and a blue vest over the shirt. He had a small nametag on that read 'hi, my name is...' and under that, written in red color was 'Stupid'. This guy had worked at the grocery store for a few years and knew Goku and his family quite well. Goku laughed at the nametag before he shook his head, "Hi, Raj."

 

"Havn't seen ya in a while, man. I thought someone finally beat ya." Raj threw the cigarette he was smoking and raised a brow from behind the dark sunglasses he wore, "Who's the kid?"

 

Goku laughed again, taking Rexyl's hand, "This is Rexyl. He's kinda new here. And he's my... ah-boyfriend? I guess?"

 

Raj's eyebrows rose in surprise before a smile displayed on his lips, "No shit? Finally dumped his sorry ass, huh?" He took off his sunglasses and extended a hand to Rexyl, his bright green eyes showing off in the process, "Raj. It's a pleasure."

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

After a few minutes in the air, they arrive at the grocery store, Rexyl's eyes wide as he took in the front of the building, wondering what kind of amazing things the place had to offer. A sudden voice out of nowhere made Rexyls jumps slightly, almost falling face first to the ground, but manages to catch himself a hold of Goku's arm, steadying himself on his feet. Taking a deep breath, he looks up, to see a stranger standing there, apparently he was some acquaintance of Goku's.

 

When the other took notice of Rexyl, asking Goku who he was, Rexyl just stared at the guy, blushing when his hand was taken, and blushing even darker at the response that was given. He was surprised when a hand was extended towards him, and for a few seconds he did nothing, before realizing this Raj guy was introducing himself, and so in answer, he bows slightly, a faint smile on his face.

 

"It is nice to meet you Raj. My name is Rexyl Novaz." Then, with a sudden remembering, he stands up straight, and awkwardly places his rather small hand in Raj's, fingers barely able to hold on to the hand. He'd forgotten that handshakes were how people on earth greeted each other normally, and not how he was used to. "Might I ask why you have a name tag that says your name is Stupid?" He quirks his eyebrow, and looks up at Raj's face, a curious expression now on his face.

[Bardock]

Raj looked down, his eyes lighting up, "Yes, you can! And its because my managers are-"

 

"Raj!!" A blonde woman tapped her foot as she exited the building, crossing her arms over her chest.

 

Raj acted surprised, looking around as if he were searching for someone, "Yes, Satan?"

 

This woman glared, her blue eyes shooting daggars at him. He then turned to her, smiling, "Oh! Jasmine. I'm sorry, I thought you were someone else."

 

Jasmine smiled, but held a cold look on her face, "Why are you wearing that nametag?"

 

Raj then turned to Rexyl, his eyebrows raising and falling twice. Then he crossed his eyes together comically. His mouth was pulled tight, almost in a straight line, and his head tilted just slightly to the right as spoke in A different voice, "Becuds dey dink I'm dupid, boss. What de cudomers want, de cudomers geds."

 

Jasmine licked the inside of her mouth, running along her teeth as she tried to refrain from smiling at Raj's face and voice, "Maybe.. they wouldn't dink-" she stopped, shaking her head at her misuse of the word-"THINK you were 'dupid' if you actually did your job. Take off the nametag, and put on your real one." She turned around to leave and then spun back around, "Oh! And I was asked to tell you to STOP asking people if they want to be a millionaire, and then handing those who said 'yes' a one million dollar candy bar. They have to pay for those you know."

 

Raj allowed himself to turn his fave back to normal before he shrugged, "I was handing out free samples!!"

 

Jasmine's eyes showed shock, "Yeah, of cheese, or lunch meat! Not full sized candy bars!!" She turned again, muttering angrily to herself as she disappeared into the grocery store.

 

Raj made little hissing giggles as she store off, "It's always so much fun, pissing her off!!"

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Throughout the whole conversation that Raj had with this lady, Rexyl tried so hard to keep from busting out laughing. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't help but to let out a quiet giggle ever so often, placing a hand over his mouth muffling the sound of his voice. Eventually he turns to look away, hiding his face against Goku's arm, snickering softly, sides beginning to hurt from the effort of trying to keep silent.

 

Eventually the woman leaves them, and it was just Goku, Rexyl, and Raj once more. With her no longer there, Rexyl couldn't contain himself any longer, and busts out in laughter. What just happened was quite amusing, and in Rexyl's eyes, he was glad that he'd come. No doubt he would have been happy other wise, but this definitely made it worth the trip.

 

After calming down a bit, he takes a deep breath, brushing the hair away from his face that had fallen there, cheeks red from laughing so hard. Looking at Raj, he nods. "Yes, I can see that. You are very funny. But to me...you do not seem all that stupid." He smiles brightly, once again taking Goku's hand into his own.

 

"So...Goku-nii, what are we going to do know? What all is on the list that Nyx made?" He glances over at Goku, mind suddenly shifting to the reason why they had come here in the first place. "Maybe Raj can help us?"

[Bardock]

Goku had kept glancing back and forth from Raj and Jasmine, his own mouth pulled into a smile as Raj made the face. He laughed softly, his chest shaking just a little, seeing Jasmine so worked up, huffing as she stormed off. Goku shook his head, finally catching a breath after he stopped laughing, "Dude.. you'll get fired one day."

 

Raj scrunched up his nose slightly and shrugged his shoulders, "Nah. I won't. They hate me and love me at the same time." Raj then stretched his arms up over his head, "I'll shop with you guys. I don't have anything else to do."

 

Goku walked inside, allowing Rexyl to lean against him, "Except work, you mean."

 

"Shh-shh shh-shh-shh-shh." Raj's face turned serious for apment, shaking his head and pressing a finger against Goku's lips, "The 'w' word shall not be mentioned."

 

Goku blinked when Raj's finger was pushed against his lips. He allowed his shoulders to drop slightly, rolling his eyes as Raj spoke. Once he was done, he pushed Raj's hand away, laughing softly, "Alright. Don't say I didn't warn you." Goku looked at the list then, "First on the list is Ramen."

 

Raj let out a loud groan, playfully poking Rexyl, "Oh my GOD, not Ramen. I'll go get the forklift." He drug his feet against the floor as he started to go towards the back.

 

Goku laughed, but tried to keep a straight fave at the same time, "It's seriously not that serious, Raj."

 

Raj turned around, "You're joking!" He then leaned over, against the cart that Goku had grabbed as he spoke to Rexyl, "You know how I MET this guy?? He came in and bought our ENTIRE stock of Ramen. No joke. Even the habanero! Do you know how many people were pissed off? A lot."

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

They begin doing what they'd come for, with no end to the amusing display given by Raj. As the first thing was read off the list, which happened to be ramen, Rexyl was confused by the reaction that was given in return by Raj. Was there something bad about getting ramen? And what the heck was a forklift?

 

His eyes focus entirely on Raj as he was spoken to, tilting his head at the explanation, smiling widely and laughing. "I see...well, I know that Nyx does eat a lot, maybe this forklift might just be necessary?" Glancing at Goku, he laughs again. As they walked he held on to the side of the cart, knees weak but not giving in just yet. He didn't let his weakness show, or the fact that he felt like his legs were made of jelly, but even though he didn't let it show, it could be felt. Wavering fatigue rolled off of him like waves, even though his smile was bright and his eyes shone with excitement.

 

As they chatted, they didn't pay attention really to where they were going, and just as someone walked around the corner, their cart ran into the person. Knocking the other individual back, dropping the carton of eggs from his hands, the carton opening and the eggs falling out. However, before they could even fall to the floor and break, the person catches the cart, and with a blink of the eye, his hand moving so fast it was a blur, he catches each and every one of the eggs in the carton, safe and nestled in the slots they rested in.

 

Closing it, he looks up, Rexyl catching eyes with him. This man looked different, for sure. Pure white hair, like snow, and silvery grey eyes. His outfit was definitely unique as well, making him look like a foreigner. Jewelry, baggy clothing, etc. Though....there was something about those clothes that seemed oddly familiar... But what was most interesting was what was slung across his back. A huge sword, with a intricate design on the blade.

 

"Sorry about that...I didn't see you there..." The man apologizes, smiling brightly. Rexyl just stares, completely silent for the first time that evening. There was something off...about this guy. Maybe it was the fact that Rexyl couldn't feel the man's presence, like everyone's else, even humans, who had some sort of power level, no matter how low. But this guy...was hidden.

 

 

 

[Bardock]

Goku was grabbing something off the shelf when he suddenly felt the cart hit someone. He looked ahead, "Oh my.. I'm sor-"

 

He was surprised at the fact this guy moved so quick, as fast as lightening, even. He was reaching out to help, but he'd already righted himself, smiling slyly at Rexyl as if he knew some secret that the others didn't. The thing that set Goku into defensive mode wasn't the weapon he wielded, tucked away behind his back. It was the fact that if he hadn't bumped into then, Goku would've never known he was there.

 

Raj whistled, shaking his head, "Dude, I think he's faster than YOU."

 

Goku glanced at Raj, slightly irritated that he decided to point out the obvious. God.. it just made him want to go home and do nothing but train. He could feel a weird, uneasy stirring inside himself, and he couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he felt like something was off about this guy. Goku then took initiative, and stepped forward, protectively pulling Rexyl closer to him, "It's alright.."

 

Goku never let his narrowing eyes leave this guy, but his mouth pulled into a smirk, disguising as a smile, "You must be new to Section 44. I havn't seen you around town. Name's Goku." He extends a hand, but off to the side, instead of straight out, "This is Raj. It's funny.. I have a friend that dressed similar to you.. what do I call you, friend?"

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Rexyl gladly moves closer to Goku, trying to refrain himself from just clutching onto the other like some kind of child. The stranger's gaze was distracted from him when Raj spoke up, the greyish silver of those piercing eyes looking away, letting him calm down some, breathing finally, as during the whole time he was being looked at, Rexyl had held his breath. His heart beat fast, and he felt dizzy from holding his breath for so long.

 

The stranger's eyes look to Goku next. and a small smile remained upon his lips. "Yes, I am quite new here. In fact, I just moved here a few days ago..." Despite the obvious fact that Goku extended his hand slightly off, the male reaches' out as well, accepting it, his grip firm. "So, it is Goku and Raj. And you may call me Gynoxyz. And yes, that IS quite funny..." Releasing Goku's hand, Gynoxyz smiles a bit wider. "And what may I call you...?" His gaze falls to Rexyl, but something in Gynoxyz's eyes said he already knew.

 

Rexyl, once he heard that name, began to tremble slightly, eyes filled with fear, wide and shaking, his heart feeling as if it had stopped. He knew that name...but from where? Why did it scare him so much? He didn't know, but the terror of standing in this man's presence was all too real. He reaches for Goku's hand, and squeezes it, as if for searching for some sort of source of strength and courage. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake the feeling he felt.

[Bardock]

Goku squeezed Rexyl's hand softly, his grip firm, as if to say nothing would happen to him. He pulled Rexyl closer, trying not to make it obvious that Goku was uneasy with this guy.

 

Although... why did that name sound familiar? Gynoxyz.. ok t sounded like Nexus spoke about him once...

 

Then Goku remembered. Nexus made a passing statement about how he was relieved that Gynoxyz wasn't the one who showed up, that it was his brother instead. But from the way Nexus made it sound like, this guy was strong. REAL strong.

 

Raj nodded towards Gynoxyz, "Sup, man?" He was still teying to be funny. But Goku narrowed his eyes, "Raj, shut up."

 

Raj blinked, but said nothing. Wow, Goku looked really stressed out. And Goku hardly ever spoke to Raj in that way, but even he knew that when Goku did, it was for a reason. So he looked back to this guy, looking him up and down.

 

Raj finally shivered slightly, leaning close to Goku, "I'm gettin' funny vibes from this guy, dude.."

 

Goku didn't even try to disguise his voice. He stated back to Raj, making it loud and clear that he KNEW who Gynoxyz was, "You should. He's a powerful guy. I'm impressed I couldn't sense you sooner." Another smile formed on his lips, showing he wasn't mocking him, "You must be very strong. How long did it take you to hide your power level like that? And I guess more to the matter is, what brings you to Section 44? Quite a long way from where you're from."

 

Goku softened his gaze, making sure he was standing in front of Rexyl, "Welcome to Earth, regardless. If you want someone to show you around, feel free to call."

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Rexyl now stood behind Goku, hidden from Gynoxyz's view, but it did not matter. Even from his safe spot behind the other, he still trembled, shaking with that uncontrollable fear. Reaching up, he clenches onto the back of Goku's shirt, fingers turning white as to how tightly he was gripping onto the fabric, his body pressed as close as he could get it to the form he felt was most secure, the most safe. Hiding his face against Goku's strong back, breath coming quick, heartbeat like a hummingbird's.

 

Gynoxyz says nothing as Rexyl moved to hide from view, instead turning his attention once more to the person who was being, as of that moment, like a shield to the young Xerothuan, a small smile upon his lips. Hearing what was said about him by Goku only made the smile grow, but it wasn't unpleasant, in fact it was quite a nice smile. The conversation was soon directed towards him, and he nods.

 

"Well, of course you cannot sense me. To hide my power level like this, is as easy as it is for you to, say...rip a piece of tissue in half..." He lets his smile drop a bit. "As for what I am doing here...I have matters that I need to take care of. Let's just say that certain people need a closer eye on them..." His eyes flick towards Goku's side, where Rexyl was peeking out at him from, and when that happens said Rexyl jumps, before hiding once again.

 

He looks to Goku again, and nods. "Thank you. You're offer is most generous. I think I just might take advantage of that when the time calls for it..." Turning away, he begins to walk in the opposite direction, before pausing. glancing back, he looks directly into Goku's eyes. "And most definitely I am strong. What kind of GOD would I be if I wasn't?" With that, he turns an aisle, and since they could not sense him, it was almost as if he'd disappeared.

[Bardock]

Goku watched as Gynoxyz turned a corner, "I fought a God once.. pretty impressive.." Then he turned a corner and was gone. Goku took that moment to lean over to Rexyl, "We need to go. Now."

 

He wasted no time and leaned over, picking Rexyl up under the knees and he walked towards the exit, feeling as if Gynoxyz was watching him the whole time. Once they were outside, he spoke, "Raj, I need to use your phone."

 

Raj pulled out his cell phone, handing it to Goku as he pulled out a cigarette, "Is he bothering you that much?"

 

Goku took it as he set Rexyl down and nodded, "More." He dialed a few quick numbers and pressed the phone to his ear, "It's Goku."

 

"Goku, how are you?" The female Doctor spoke on the other end, "Making an appointment for your checkup?"

 

"No. Can I speak to Dad? It's important."

 

"You sound odd.. is everything okay?"

 

"No, it isn't." His voice showed some slight anger, his eyes narrowed, but not looking at anyone.

 

A pause... then she spoke, "I'll get Bardock."

 

A few moments later, Bardocks voice erupted through the phone, "Kakarot? What is it?"

 

Goku grit his teeth, shaking softly, "We got a problem. Gynoxyz is here and he's got his eyes set on Rexyl."

 

Bardock raised a brow on the other end of the phone, "Gynoxyz? Who is that? Sounds a little familiar..."

[~*~FaLlEn*SnOw~*~]

Without much to say, Rexyl was surprised at how Goku was reacting to the situation. His eyes grow wide when he was suddenly scooped up off his feet, and carried outside of the store, their cart with food left where they had been standing in the bread aisle, all thoughts about buying grocery drifted off in the wind, much like the presence of Gynoxyz.

 

Being set down, Rexyl watched intently as Goku called Bardock, noting the tone of the other's voice. For a moment he could tell he was talking to the nurse, before talking to the one he wanted to, making him shift a tiny bit where he was sitting, eyes looking to his hands, which were folded in his lap.

 

He was silent, knowing that no doubt that was the best choice. On the other end, Nexus' eyes lift when he heard the name that was mentioned, widening slightly. Were his ears playing tricks on him? Did Bardock really just say that name? Why would the God of Xeros be here?

 

"Wait, what?! What did you say?! Gynoxyz? Who are you talking to Bardock?" He asks this, his voice urgent, shaking a little bit, the nervousness already starting to set in.

 

"What the fuck would HE be doing here?!" Nexus grits his teeth, a sweat drop dripping down the side of his face. "Something is up...something big..."

[Bardock]

"Who was that??" Goku's voice erupted over the phone, "Dad, press the button that says 'Speak'."

 

Bardock did as he was told, nodding when the phone beeped at him, "Kakarot, did it work? What did that do?"

 

"Nexus!"

 

Bardock nearly threw the phone, he jumped so high. After shaking his head, he sighed, "I wish you guys would stop doing that. .."

 

"Sorry, Dad.. Nexus, this Genoxyz guy, what can you tell me about him? He's looking at Rexyl as if he is going to eat him or something." Goku's voice sounded angered then, "I don't like the way he looks at him. He said something about keeping 'a closer eye on someone'. What does that mean?"
