Chapter 25

Third POV

Guerrero House

Vickie sat in the living room couch as she watches reporters interview AJ. A women reporter asks AJ the question that Vickie hoped wouldn't be asked.

"In the World Tournament it was revealed that the Great Saiyawoman is the Golden Fighter. Why did she create the Great Saiyawoman? Why did she collapse and scream in pain during her match? And we're was she taken?" The women reporter asked. Vickie started to feel anxious not knowing how AJ could answer that question without breaking down.

Before AJ could answer Sasha appears and stands in front of AJ.

"Saiyawoman is fine ." Sasha simply answers. "If She is fine then why didn't she show up with Saiyagirl and help her evacuate the people from the building." The women reporter asked only to be responded by Sasha slapping the microphone out of her face and grabbing AJ hand and shoving their way out of the crowd.

Vickie turns off the tv and stands up and goes to check on Bayley who is sound asleep. Vickie places her hand on top of Bayley.

"Please wake up soon, Bayley." Vickie says hating seeing her two daughters in pain. "Oh Eddie I wish you were here.

"How has Bayley been?" Sasha asked as she flew the helicopter to AJ house. "She hasn't screamed in pain. Which means the medicine is working." AJ replied relieved that the medicine is working. "That's great news." Sasha said happy to know that the medicine is helping Bayley. "What about you. how you holding up kiddo?" Sasha asked. "Okay I guess..." AJ replied as she continued staring out the window.

"It gets easier you know." Sasha said looking at AJ. "What do you mean?" AJ said confused, "This, this all gets easier with time." Sasha clarifies with a slight smile. AJ looked down, "How do you know? I know the medication helped my dad, and Bayley hasn't screamed in pain. But what if in the end it doesn't work and she dies. She's my sister I love her." AJ holds back her tears. "Because, I was in your situation once, just without the heart virus." Sasha sighed she remembered telling Bayley but Sasha still hated talking about this but AJ needs to know.

"You and I are much more alike than you may think, AJ." Sasha said. "I still have no idea what you are talking about Sasha but I guess go on." AJ said focusing her attention on the teen. "When I was about your age...my mother she...she became very ill. It was rather strange really...she went on a business trip but had to come back early because she had fallen ill. At first the doctors thought it was just a bad case of food poisoning but...gradually she became worse. I remember going to school dreading coming home because I wasn't sure if she was going to still be there when I got back." Sasha said trying to hold back her tears. AJ didn't know what to say she just sat there listening. "My dad tried to find a doctor who could help but...no one knew what was wrong with her. I had to watch her go through all kinds of treatments...some that were just so painful for her to even go through that when she would be done she would come out in tears. But about six months after she had initially became ill...you see I came home from school one day and instead of being greeted by my father I was greeted by one of my fathers training buddies who took me to the kitchen to get a snack. I remember balling my eyes out and demanding to know where my mother was...why my father wasn't home but my fathers friend wouldn't give me an answer. Finally I blurted out the inevitable...that my mother was dead and his silence confirmed my assumptions. I didn't come out of my room for days...I almost failed the 4th grade because of it...they did an autopsy on her and discovered she had a rare form of stomach cancer that could only be detected by surgery...and even then there was only a 20 chance they would find it...it was around the time of my mothers death that my father began to train...all the time he was obsessed with being the best." Sasha said now in tears.

Reilena didn't know what to do here was her sister girlfriend well friend pouring her heart and soul out to her and the only thing she could think of was the one thing she knew would make her feel better. AJ leaned over towards Sasha and hugged her...she didn't say anything just hugged her. Sasha was taken a back by the gesture but hugged her back. After a minute or so Sasha pulled away and wiped away her tears.

"So I guess what I am trying to say kid is...that I know what you are going through...and that I am sure that Bayley will be fine...really...she will be." She said to her with a slight smile. "Thanks Sasha..." AJ said to her as she got up to go back upstairs.
