What if Bardock had seen the vision of his son defeating Frieza before he went up against him? What if Bardock, instead of trying to defeat Frieza himself, had decided to go and find his son and train him so that one day his vision of his son defeating Frieza would come true? That brings us to our story.
Bardock stumbled into the bar "People, listen to me! Frieza is going to destroy this planet. You have to get out of here!"
Several Saiyans laughed "Yeah, right Bardock."
"You sound like you need a drink."
"And you look like you've had too many." More laughs.
Bardock growled "Listen to me!" He stumbled as he had another vison. A boy, no a man who looked like him was fighting Frieza. The man beat Frieza. The man...was his son. He gasped as he came back from his vison. He now knew that someone could beat Frieza, and that someone wasn't him, but if he got to his son...he had to leave now. He was running out of time! He stumbled out to the docking bay. He met resistance there. He said "Let me pass."
"Bardock, go to that tanks. You're half dead again."
Bardock knocked the man out of the way. When another man barred him he yelled "Frieza ordered the recall of the Saiyan infants sent off world."
"Even if he did, you're in no shape to..."
Bardock pushed the man out of his way and blasted him. "I'm going after my son."
"You can't take that ship. It's elite."
"See if I care." He blasted him too. He then got into the ship and pulled it out of station. Frieza wouldn't be able to sense his ship if it went into hyperdrive. Where did they send his son again? Wasn't it a planet called Ea-rth? "Computer, hyperdrive to Earth. Activate." He was slammed back in the seat and he blacked out.
A week later...
Bardock woke up. He had crash landed on Earth. He felt better than before though. Some of his injuries had healed. Now, where was his son? His ship should have left a energy signature. He climbed out of his ship and clicked on his scouter. He soon found his son's ship. It looked like it had just crashed. Elite ships really were faster than standard ships then. He opened the pod. his son was screaming. Bardock put his hand over his ears and yelled "Quit that. You're going to make my ears bleed!"
The baby looked at him. Bardock said "Kakkarot, I am your father. Do you understand?" The baby bit him. Bardock slapped him. The infant looked surprised. Bardock said "If you want me to feed you, you better not do that again."
Kakkarot looked at him and laughed.
Bardock dropped the infant on his rear. "Gross!" Kakkarot laughed. Bardock stressmarked "This is going to be a long few years." He picked the baby back up and said "You're coming with me." Kakkarot came along them with few struggles. Bardock carried the boy under his arm and they soon came upon a stream.
Bardock said "Bath time." Kakkarot started screaming. Bardock said "You're going first." He dunked his son under the water and washed him and his clothes off. He then sat him down on a rock to dry out and got in himself. He scrubbed himself and his clothes and got most of the blood and grime off. He got out and said 'Now, we go hunting.
Two years later...
Bardock had built a house in the forest and they lived there. "Dad!"
"Kakkarot?"
"Let's go!" (Note: at least for the purposes of my story, Saiyan infants mature faster than human ones when they are raised by Saiyan parents)
Bardock laughed "You think you're ready?"
The three year old cried "Yeah!"
Bardock smiled "Today was the day of his son's first kill, his first hunt. They went, stalking a bear.
Kakkarot said "I got it." He went off on his own. Bardock let him, but listened for trouble and monitored the situaton with his scouter. He soon heard a cry of pain and a yell of rage. He went to where he heard his son scream. He saw a bear rising up with his son beneath it. Blood was coming from its neck. Bardock took the bear.
Tears were running down his son's face, but he made no sound. Bardock held up his head and saw deep scratches on his face. 'Good boy. Already he is learning not to show weakness or fear.' He said "My son. Today you have become a true Saiyan. You have made me proud, my son."
So, what do you guys think? R and R. Catch you later.
