Gohan stood on the edge of the lookout. He could hear his father's voice. "Wait don't I have a say in this?" He listened as his father fed them a bunch of crap of caring about the earth. Gohan took a large breath and then looked at the revived Trunks. Trunks had been...his student in one time line.now Trunks was his idol. Trunks looked over at him and Gohan waved a goodbye deciding that this life was getting rather hectic. Anyway, he could easily survive on his own.

He had done it at the age of three or four. Trunks realized his thoughts and yelled for the crowd to turn but by the time they did Gohan had powered up to his full power and used every inch of his Ki to shoot a beam temporarily blinding his friends. He let himself fall having saved just enough Ki to slow down his descent when he came to the ground. of course it would come back on its own yes but it would blind them.

Gohan had learned to hide his Ki from even Piccolo. As he left himself fall past the site of the lookout he heard Trunks follow and Piccolo too. Yamcha's scream could be clearly heard as he alerted Goku of his son's disappearance. He saw Piccolo and used a special skill he had perfected and hidden from his father and all the others. Gohan cloaked himself then his Ki so he could fall without being followed. As he fell he had two thoughts. 'Goodbye chaos.' And the ever popular, 'I don't need anybody.' He hit the ground almost an hour later slowing himself just enough so he didn't break anything. Gohan (or as he would soon choose to be known Ryan) fell asleep.

(Hope you like Chapter 1!) Let me say something about this kind of Fan fiction. I've seen plenty of stories that depict this happening at this moment. They portray him running off and becoming a drug addict and gangster or such. This will portray him leading a normal childhood with his adopted parents and in his teen years singing country. Well darn gave away the over view of the first few chapters. heh heh this will be a long one. I beg of you to give me Reviews to keep this going! PLEASE nothing really harsh though. I can already tell you I am an amateur.
