Chapter One
Goku wasn't feeling at all well. For one thing, he had woken up with a throbbing headache. He hadn't eaten much for breakfast that morning, which shocked Chi Chi. She had exclaimed: "Goku-San! You don't normally waste your food! Come back! Eat with your son, Gohan, at least! You missed Goten on his way to school!"
However, her pleading just caused Goku's patience to vanish. He had snapped at her out of impatience and annoyance, scaring her and surprising his elder son Gohan. Now he felt terrible; like an avalanche had toppled onto him. He couldn't find the courage to go back and apologise. He didn't even feel his fighting spirit urge him to train like it did every morning. Feeling downer than ever, Goku slumped down against a fallen log in the deep forest beside his house, hoping to never be found.
"Why was I so mean to Chi Chi?" Goku whispered to himself, shivering as an autumn breeze bristled past, kissing his skin with cold regret.
"Feeling down, Son Goku?" A familiar voice floated past the miserable Saiyan, who immediately got up and turned around, horrified.
His day had gone badly from the beginning. Now it had only become worse- standing before him was his nightmare; his evil replica.
Goku Black.
