Kidnapped


"Gohan sweetie, can you run down to the river and catch a couple of good fishes for dinner tonight?" Chi-Chi asked her ten year old son. Gohan looked up from his text book and smiled.

"Sure thing mom!" Gohan laughed happily before closing his book and heading out. "Hey, when is dad gonna be home?"

Chi-Chi turned to her son still stirring a special sauce that flavored the fish. "Well you know your father, when his stomach growls, he'll be home in less then five minutes. So I'd have to say about six." The young demi-saiyan looked at the digital clock to see that it read five fifteen; he had a little under an hour before he could see his dad again. He sighed, he wanted to go and train at Kami's Lookout with his dad and Piccolo, but he was stuck doing his studies instead.

"Thanks mom, be back in twenty minutes tops!!" He hollered before running out and heading to the river their family favored.

"Be careful!!!" Chi-Chi called after him, but he was long gone. 'I hope that creep that was all over the news doesn't come after Gohan…then again, I'm sure he'd regret it…' Chi-Chi tried to reassure herself. But she couldn't get that thought out of her mind.

They were watching TV with the family earlier when their movie was interrupted by an urgent message. The reporter said that there had been reports of missing children all over Japan and the last one reported was in the Mount. Pauz region. She didn't think she had to worry if this guy was a regular human, but what she didn't know was that this guy was far from human…


"At this rate, they'll demolish the Lookout!!!" Mr. Popo complained to Kami as Piccolo and Goku fiercely exchanged blows. They were training as if their lives depended on it; which in a few months, it would. The Androids would arrive and who knows what would happen even before that…

"So be it Mr. Popo, as long as they'll be prepared to fight off this new evil, we can withstand it. Besides, I believe it's about time we got some new plants." Mr. Popo smiled up at Kami; he loved taking care of plants. Their conversation however was interrupted as they both were blown back as Goku and Piccolo unleashed energy beams at each other; power radiating from them like an over powered light bulb about to blow. What they didn't know was that they were gonna use their training sooner then expected…


Gohan ran past the small brook and stopped in front of the huge watering hole his family loved to fish at. The grass was lush there, the animals were super friendly, and the small flowers were always flourishing with life.

Gohan's gaze then drifted to the river to see the fish jumping in and out of the water happily. He smirked before quickly discarding his cloths and jumping in the water, chasing the fish around laughing silently the whole way.

Thanks to his training he under went with his father and Piccolo, he was ten times stronger, faster, and braver then ever before. Especially when they trained in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber; he was able to find the key to turn Super Saiyan. He still couldn't get Piccolo's reaction out of his head when he first saw Gohan his ascended form…

Both he and his father agreed to stay in their Super Saiyan forms so that when they fought, it would feel natural to them and won't consume their energy. It was brilliant, they wouldn't have to waste all the time and energy they'd need to power up and use it for both their defense and offense.

Those thoughts however were lost as Gohan spotted a large fish that didn't seem to notice his approached and pounced on it; riding it like a bull.

It didn't take long for him to gather four good sized fish and tie them all together back up on the surface. 'I guess I'll have to cut and clean them by myself…' His thoughts trailed off as he began to feel uneasy. He didn't know why, but he felt as if he was being…watched…

But he would have sensed it if someone was there, so he just kept moving rather cautiously towards the fish, taking his knife out to cut his prey.


Kami had gone to the edge of the 'still-in-tack' side of the Lookout and watched the world below. Mr. Popo watched him contently before seeing his face cringe with a hint of worry and fear.

"What is it Kami?" Mr. Popo asked concerned. He didn't like not knowing what was awakening down below.

Kami shifted uneasy before quickly turning towards the fight that was currently going on. "GOKU!!! GOKU!!!!" He yelled in the loudest voice he could muster. Mr. Popo looked at him with much worry and wondered what could be going on.

Goku and Piccolo finally separated after a few moments and looked at Kami expectantly. Kami just gave them a grave expression back. "I think you should head home right now Goku." Goku and Piccolo both exchanged confused looks.

"What's wrong Kami? Did we destroy the Lookout too badly?" Goku asked feeling a bit guilty about the damage they caused.

"No, it's not that at all; it's for a more urgent reason."

Piccolo tried to figure out what he was talking about, but Kami seemed to be blocking his probing mind which he found odd. Goku just stared deeply into Kami's face before nodding. He didn't know why, but he had a sudden urgency to get back to his family; something was wrong, he could feel it in his heart…


Gohan was just about to pick up the rope that tied all the fishes together when he heard the bushes rattle. He turned only to feel someone hit the back of his head savagely; causing his pupil's to shrink before he fell unconscious. The one behind this chuckled and caught Gohan by the back of his purple gi and flew off; leaving only the fish and the knife now in the dirt behind…


Goku felt the sudden decrease in his son's energy and began to wonder what was going on. "I'll be back!!!" He shouted before disappearing with his Instant Transmission Technique. Piccolo and Mr. Popo looked at where Goku had been in questioning before they too felt the demi-saiyan's power fade.

"WHAT?!! GOHAN?!!"

Goku arrived at his house in less then a minute and quickly ran inside. "Chi-Chi!!" He cried as his wife peeked out from where she was cooking in the kitchen.

"Oh look who's finally back!! We were gonna wait for you, but you took too long!!!" Chi-Chi lectured not paying attention to the worried expression on her husband's face.

Goku looked in all the rooms to find no one. "Where's Gohan?!!" He asked with worry evident in his voice. This time Chi-Chi caught it and gave him a worried look back.

"He, he went to go catch the fish for dinner. Why? Is he in danger or something?!!" Goku quickly bolted out of the house and ran down to the river. Chi-Chi dropped what she was doing and headed on after him.

When Goku made it to the river, he couldn't make out any one there. There was no energy signal present and Gohan's cloths weren't even folded on the rock like usual. He was about to head off to another river when he saw the fish all tied up in the rope. 'Wa, what?!' He asked himself dumfounded before going on over to them. They didn't seem to be cleaned nor cut, but then he spotted Gohan's knife he used to cut the fish sticking out of the ground. 'That's odd…Gohan never abuses his knife like this…' That's when he caught a trail of another presence. It wasn't any one he knew of because it left no energy…

Chi-Chi came running down the hill and stopped next to Goku. She too saw the knife and immediately looked around with fear.

"GOHAN!!!!" She called. "Gohan!!!" She called even louder, but all that answered her was the running water and the animals that ran about. Chi-Chi knew as well as Goku did that someone had kidnapped their son, and it was the same person that kidnapped all the other missing children…
