Goku watched with unnatural attentiveness as Nataku examined his wounded arm. The cut wasn’t deep or wide, but it ran the risk of getting infected. After satisfied that the cut wouldn’t require professional attention, Nataku rinsed the blood off. Disinfecting herbs were rubbed into the cut and a bandage was wrapped tightly around the limb.
Still Goku sat there, watching as the now pink water continued to drip off his forearm into the ground below.
“Hey Nataku,” the monkey began, “why do we bleed?”
The war prince caught a drop with his finger. “We bleed just to know we’re alive.”
