The Dragon Fighters
Chapter 1: Prologue
~I remade Chapter 1 because it was stupid. At least to me. To my followers I forgot to upload this yesterday so here it is
~Vegeta
I put the Dragon Balls in my ship as well as some other necessities I would need for the trip. The ship wasn't very large but it had enough room for somewhere to sleep and pilot the ship. I had Dr. Briefs make this for me out of my old Saiyan pod. When he asked why, I kept it a secret. The truth was, I needed a rush, I needed excitement. This life of families and peace wasn't enough for me. None of this was what I wanted. I wanted to be like the old me. The ruthless Saiyan prince with no compassion for others. Relationships made you weak and vulnerable. I wasn't going to end up like that. I would become the strongest Saiyan of all time and the strongest in the universe. Now that Kakarrot is out of the way I don't need to worry about him. His son and his friends will soon be filled with despair. Gohan was still stronger than me. I had to find some way to kill him before he was too much to handle. Then I saw Bulla burst into the room crying.
"Daddy! Trunks stole my Barbies and he won't give them back!" She cried.
"Deal with it yourself." I answered.
"Where are you going?" She asked.
"Let me just tell you this, Bulla. In a few years time I will come back to Earth. I will be stronger than anyone else on this stupid planet and I will bring an army." I told her.
She looked puzzled. Of course I couldn't expect an 8 year old to understand what I'm saying.
"Well if you're leaving should I tell mommy?" She questioned.
"No. Don't tell her anything. And Bulla?" I asked.
"What?"
"Take care of yourself. I'm sorry in advance. Goodbye."
I patted her on the head and entered the ship and into the pilot's seat. She looked at me a mix of surprise as well as confusion rested on her face. Then she waved goodbye. I figured that it would be the last thing I saw of my family for a very long time.
~Gohan (6 years later)
"How are you and Videl?" Mom asked sipping her soup.
"Mom..." I answered.
"Yeah did you make a move on her yet?" Goten asked. "First base? Oh, you guys are in the friend zone huh?"
"No, we're not anywhere." I responded.
"Oh come on, you're spending most of the summer training and then having "study breaks" with Videl. You're telling me you didn't take any of those opportunities?"
"I agree with Goten, the girl's rich, her father's the king of the world or something and she's polite." Mom commented.
"Can we stop talking about me and Videl for just a second!?" I shouted slamming my fists against the table.
"Gohan you know you need to keep your emotions in check. I don't want a repeat of last year." Mom lectured.
I nodded. Last year was when I got angry at Krillin for throwing a rock at my face while I was sleeping and the next thing I knew I had destroyed the Kame House, almost killed Trunks and was holding Goten by the neck. Krillin and the others were afraid of me ever since. Why it happened was a mystery but it was triggered by pain and anger. I guess it was a good thing no one has attacked the Earth in years. Now the room was silent and everyone was left to their own thoughts. As if out of thin air, the Supreme Kai appeared out of nowhere on top of our table.
"Sorry, for popping in unwarned but this is urgent." He said.
"What the hell!?" Goten screamed getting out of his seat.
"Gohan! What kind of friends do you make in high school!?" Mom questioned.
"Hello, Lord of Lords." I greeted.
"Please, Gohan. Call me Shin," Shin said. He then turned to my family. "Oh, Hi. I'm the lord of lords, Shin. I helped you defeat Buu a few years back."
"Uh-huh." Mom said.
"Wait you're the elf guy!?" Goten asked. "Wow, haven't seen you in a while."
"Anyway I have to tell you something, Gohan." Shin brought up.
"What is it?"
"The Saiyans. They're coming to Earth. Six of them," Shin began. "They're very powerful. More powerful than me. Although I wasn't much to begin with but anyway, why they're coming here I don't know. But they'll be here in about a month."
"Impossible, all the Saiyans are dead. Unless..." I said beginning to think.
"You don't think it's Vegeta, do you?" Goten asked.
"He stole the Dragon Balls and disappeared into space. Who's to say he didn't go back to his evil ways after dad died?" I said. Goten became silent.
"So what are you all going to do?" Mom asked.
"We're going to train. I'm sorry if you don't approve but I won't listen to you this time. If Vegeta's behind the attack the Earth is in serious danger." I said turning to Shin.
"Gohan, I don't care what you're going to do or what happens, you better stop those Saiyans or else you'll be in very big trouble!" Mom ordered.
I smiled and nodded, "Alright, I think I'll send Videl, Trunks, and Dende into the Time Chamber. I'll train with Shin. Goten, gather Tien and the others at the temple."
"Well, I guess it's a plan then." Shin said. "I'll come back tomorrow. Be ready by then."
With that said, Shin teleported away. Goten spoke up, "I doubt Videl would go into the room of Spirit and Time."
"I'll think of something." I assured him. "We're going to all the help we can get if we're going to defeat Vegeta."
