About 20 minutes or so later there were a figure flying over the field. It
passed over it, but flew back around and landed. It was Gohan. Then there
was a cloud, which didn't seem out of the ordinary. So when Goku said,
"There's Goten!" Most were confused. The cloud circled the field and then
landed. A little boy about 5 or 6 jumped off the cloud. His hair was
exactly like his Dad's. Then Yamcha landed and a small man named Krillin
landed behind him. Two jetcopters came into view. One held two passengers,
the other held three. The first one had Bulma and her son Trunks. The
second held Master Roshi, Number 18; Krillin's wife, and their daughter
Maron. Goku counted them and when he only counted 7, he sighed. Then he
introduced them. He turned to Bulma. "Where's Vegeta?" "I told him to
come," she began to imitate her husband. "Kakarot? What does he want? You
know I'm very busy. If I have time I'll be there." She changed back to her
normal voice. "He is so impossible sometimes." "Sometimes?" Gohan said
under his breath. Goku gave him a look and Gohan stood quiet. "Hey Amanda,
Courtney, Matt?" Goku said so only the three could hear. "Some people here
are a tad strange. If Vegeta comes, him especially. "Hey everyone!" Goku
got louder so everyone could hear. "Listen up! I'm gonna go get Vegeta.
Don't worry Bulma, he'll come." He jumped in the air and took off. As he
flew away Amanda looked up at Matt. "I wanna to become a Super Saiyan! And
I wanna fly! That would be WAY cool!!!" "I don't think you can," Matt said.
"I think you have to be older. And stronger." "Whatever!" Amanda exclaimed.
"If this were any other situation then you probably would be able to. But
not this time. If Goku teaches me, then when you get stronger, I can teach
you." "Fine!" Amanda lowered her voice. "You think you know everything! I
bet Goku will teach me if I ask! I'll ask him when he comes back!" "You do
that!" Matt knew Amanda never listened AND how stubborn she was. Matt knew
Goku would say Amanda wasn't strong or even old enough. At least as not
strong as the rest of us. He looked at Amanda. She's not nearly as strong
as she thinks she is. He thought.
Goku flew back over the valley. He tried to land, but hit the ground rolling. He stood up dizzy and embarrassed. He grinned at everybody. "Nice landing, Kakarot." He turned around to grin at the man behind him. "Thanks, Vegeta." Vegeta had untidy black hair (Although no where NEAR as untidy as Goku's.) and he landed perfectly, with his arms folded across his chest. "Well, what was so important that you had to rush and get me?" he asked. "I wanted you guys to meet some people. Chi Chi, Gohan, and I have already met them. Matt?" Goku beckoned him forward. "This is Matt, Courtney, Amanda. They're new. Completely. They didn't know what Super Saiyans are. Be nice and try to make them feel at home. Well, that's all I wanted you to see. You are welcome to stay here, go to your own home, obviously, or you can go to our house I believe….." He looked at his wife and she nodded. "I believe that Chi Chi is going home so you are welcome to go there." After everyone but Goku, Goten, and Gohan were left Amanda turned to Goku.
"Goku, will you teach me to be a Super Saiyan?" "Sorry, Amanda. you have to be Saiyan." Matt cleared his throat. Amanda shot him a evil look then looked back at Goku. "What's a Saiyan?" "Well, I didn't want to tell you but, a Saiyan, is an alien, but human. I'm full and total Saiyan. Gohan is half and Goten is half. You have to be Saiyan to be Super Saiyan. But, I do want to test your abilities. Maybe I can train you and make you stronger. But I can't teach you to be a Super Saiyan. Chi Chi won't like it but, I guess we could hold a tiny tournament. To see who I can train and who I can't." "Well then I'm going to fight in it," was the remote and immediate response from Amanda. Goku was strongly reminded of Number 18. She was a very outgoing and would let nothing get in her way, she wasn't afraid of anything. "Me too." This time from Matt. "Sure," Courtney said. "OK, well pick a number then, between 1 and 100," he pointed to Amanda. "Um, 13?" "Are you asking me?" Goku asked. "No." He pointed to Matt. "2." Then Courtney. " 50."
"The numbers were 23 and 32. So Amanda and Courtney fight and whoever wins that will fight Matt. I better go over the rules. If any part of your body touches outside the ring that person is out. If you say you give up, you lose. If you stay down for the countdown, you lose. Got it?" I know I don't have to worry about you to killing each other so, we can skip that. Are you ready?" They nodded. Goku drew a giant grid. "Do we really need it that big?" Courtney asked. "You'd be surprised. Anyway,are you ready?" "Yeah," Amanda said. "Well, get up there." They both walked to their own side and stood facing each other. "Ready? Go!" Courtney was still nervous, but she made the first move. Amanda stood with her arms crossed. Courtney knew that Amanda was strong and hated her for it. She had the looks and the brains. But, for Amanda to think she was good…… Courtney had to beat her. She flew at Amanda. Courtney was about two feet away from her. Amanda put her foot out and kicked Courtney right out of the ring. Courtney stared at Amanda in disbelief. She blinked a few times to refocus her eyes. "Wha-How….Hmm…….." She looked down. "It's a Ring-" Goku started. "We know!" Courtney snapped at him. He was taken aback. "Matt, Amanda, last one." They both stepped up to the ring. "Go!" Amanda looked at Matt and narrowed her eyes. She took a flying leap for an air kick, but to the surprise of most, he jumped out of the ring. "Why-What-Why'd you do that?" Goku asked completely puzzled. Misty were pretty surprised as well. "Look at her," Matt said. "I am. What am I supposed to see?" he asked. "Do you really need to make her fight me, to know that she can make it? You can train her, and you know it." "And so what of it? What if I do know I can train her? Are you afraid to fight her? Why'd you jump out like that?" "I am. If I kept at it she might end up really hurting me. Isn't that one of the rules of a fighter 'Know when you're beaten'? I'm no match for her at all." "OK, whatever. It's a Ring- Out then. Amanda, I will train you."
A scream cut through their conversation. The cloud reappeared. The cloud stopped and Chi Chi stumbled off it. "I-I…..hate…..that…cloud!" she was out of breath. "Bye Mommy!" Goten yelled from the cloud. It took off again. Goku shook with silent laughter. She rounded on him. "I don't see what's so funny!" "I do!" Gohan said quietly. Chi Chi looked at the fighting field. Then questioningly at Goku. She gestured to the field. "What's this?" "What's it look like?" Goku asked timidly, rocking back and forth. "It looks-like you've been….fighting?" Goku looked at the sky then down at the ground. She sighed. "Why?" "I'm-I'm gonna….train-train….. her," he pointed to Amanda. "Are you now?" "Yes?" "No." "Oh, come on Chi Chi. She's strong enough. If you say I can't, I'm just gonna train her after you leave anyway." "Whatever. Will-Oh I know I'm gonna regret this-Will you train me too?" "Really!-Oh, I mean, sure. If I have time." She punched him in the arm. "Ow!" he said rubbing his shoulder. "OK, I guess the first thing you're gonna have to learn to do is fly. So-um- if you want," he pointed to the other three. "I might be able to teach you how to fly. You're gonna need to sit." They all sat down. It was Goku's turn to sigh. He was hoping that at least one of them wouldn't want to learn. "OK, now focus all your energy." "Energy?" Amanda asked. "Ya, energy." "Like this," Gohan explained. He held his hand out in front of him. A bright ball of light formed on the palm of his hand. It got bigger and he threw it into the mountain next to them, it blasted away a large hole near the base. "If that's not energy, then I don't know what you would call it." "Well, that's…..energy all right." "Now, try to focus your energy from your chest and bring it out." Goku and Gohan cupped their hands in front of them. The others did the same. After seconds, a glowing ball of golden light appeared. Chi Chi's came next, and soon after Amanda. It took a little bit, but Matt was next. Courtney was concentrating and to everyone's surprise she was next. "OK, now, we need to learn how to control that energy and push it towards the ground, it should push you up." Chi Chi was doing better then anyone would have thought. She was the first to get off the ground, she was floating about five-feet up. "All right! Ya! That's great, Honey!" Goku laughed. "Goku! I'm trying to concentrate." Goku put his hand over his mouth and smiled. Amanda was getting angry. It was annoying her, that someone, especially a weakling like Chi Chi, was stronger then her. And why was he getting so excited over his stupid wife, being able to fly? It's not that big a deal. She was concentrating on her anger, and that's what brought her up. She also hovered, but only about three feet high. "Come on, you guys," he said looking at the other two. "You gotta think happy thoughts!!!" Courtney was concentrating so hard on trying to lift off, that she was actually off the ground, and didn't even know it. She opened her eyes. "I can't do iiiiiiiiiiiit!" she yelled as she fell. "Hey!" she yelled as she jumped up. "Hey! I did it! All right!" "That's great! Can you do it again? And Matt, are you going to be able to do it at all?" Goku asked. "I hope so!" he said laughing. "Otherwise, I'm gonna be stranded while everyone else is airborne!" Eventually he got it. "OK, I'm gonna partner you up to get you higher in the air," he explained. "Matt, you and Courtney partner up. Amanda you and Gohan." He turned to Chi Chi. "OK, you have to try and get HIGHER. Got it? OK!" She shut her eyes, concentrated, and floated. She rose up and got higher, she was rising above the trees. She opened her eyes and looked down. She gasped. Goku was real small. "Help! Goku! I-I-I-I can't get down!" She looked back down at him. He had his head cocked sideways and was thinking about the situation. "Just relax!!!" he yelled up at her. "Do you really think I can relax right now?!" "TRY!!!" "I CAN"T!!!" "Well-just hold on a second." He jumped up and floated next to her. "It's OK," he said laughing. She was shaking. He took her hand, picked her up, and SLOWLY floated down. She sat down. "I……think that's enough for me today." "Don't worry. You did good." He offered his hand. She took it and he pulled her up. "Really, you did." He kissed her and told he was gonna check on the others. He kept trying to convince her that she did great. Although she had heard his voice for 18 years and it was as reassuring as ever, she still felt like she overreacted and hadn't done well at all. "Baby," Amanda muttered under her breath.
Goku flew back over the valley. He tried to land, but hit the ground rolling. He stood up dizzy and embarrassed. He grinned at everybody. "Nice landing, Kakarot." He turned around to grin at the man behind him. "Thanks, Vegeta." Vegeta had untidy black hair (Although no where NEAR as untidy as Goku's.) and he landed perfectly, with his arms folded across his chest. "Well, what was so important that you had to rush and get me?" he asked. "I wanted you guys to meet some people. Chi Chi, Gohan, and I have already met them. Matt?" Goku beckoned him forward.

"I believe that Chi Chi is going home so you are welcome to go there." After everyone but Goku, Goten, and Gohan were left Amanda turned to Goku.
