'Thought/Attack'

Chapter 1: Divergence

We all know the events that occur throughout the Dragon Ball history. Goku meeting Bulma, the adventures he traveled. Not to forget the fights he had such as Demon King Piccolo and his off spring Piccolo Jr.

Then it's common knowledge on what happened after his victory over Piccolo Jr., he and Chi-Chi got married and then the rest is already written... but what if one small change occured? That one change eventually altering all time it's self. This is the story of what if Son Goku and Bulma Brief ended up together.

Five years of peace has passed for the lovely planet called Earth since the battle between Son Goku and Piccolo Jr. Many events occured over the five years such as the confession of love for Goku from Bulma.

Not long after the two entered a relationship, the blue haired woman revealed she was pregnant.

Nine month of pure misery passed for the protector of Earth until the day he held his son, Son Gohan Brief, in his arms. He had messy palm hair like his father but the color was lavender. His eyes were ocean blue like his mother. Last but not least, a lavender fuzzy tail hung from his lower back.

Four years passed by for Son Goku. Bulma and her father, his step-father, built a machine that could manipulate the gravity up to five times. Not only that but the Son was allowed to train not only himself but also Gohan.

At last, the Earth could have some peace and quiet, or could it?

A tall green man with pointy ears, sharp fangs and long sharp fingernails stood atop a mountain. The wind blew the fabric of his white cape back, the sunlight reflecting from the purple material in the center of his turban and the green blades of grass brushing against his brown Gucci kicks(sorry, I had to).

'This power!' He quickly spun around. 'It can't be Goku. This power is far more evil yet it's similar to his.'

Moments later a figure landed a few feet away from Piccolo. His hair was long and spiky reaching the bottom of his back. He wore what looked like armor with a green device on his left ear. "You're not Kakarot, who are you?" The man asked.

Piccolo kept his guard up as he eyed the invader carefully. "I don't know any Kakarot and I suggest you leave, Now!" Deep down, he knew even at full power, this mystery man would be a hassle.

"Hahahahahah! Good one green bean," he broke down in laughter. "You only have a power level of only 392! I could squash you like a fly under my boot."

The Demon King clenched his teeth in anger with his hands balled up into fists. "I warned you!" The Namekian roared as his white aura came to life.

The long hair man's device began to beep and symbols flashed on the screen. 'What! His power is rising!? How can this be?' The device known as a scouted stopped and a smirk grew on the man's face.

Piccolo aura died down as he now faced his opponent. "Don't tell me this is all you got green man?" The armored warrior asked.

"Not even close," Piccolo Jr. replied as he began to take off his cape and turban. "Now prepare to be in a world of hurt." Piccolo cracked his knuckles and neck.

'980! His power increased almost three times! No matter, I should make quick work of him.' The invader thought as he prepared for battle.

Master Roshi, Krillin and Turtle were all over at the Sons residence, Capsule Corp. Bulma invited them over for catching up.

"It's been awhile Goku," the short bald Orin monk named Krillin said. "Last time I was over little Gohan was barley learning how to walk." He chuckled to himself as he looked at the boy.

"Really!? It's been that long? Sorry I haven't come by often Krillin." Goku laughed as he scratched the back of his head.

"It's hard to stay mad at ya. Tell you what, I'll forgive you if you and I have a sparring match like the good old days."

"Krillin my boy, I hate to say it but Goku is beyond any human limitations this world has to offer," this cane from Master Roshi. "Plus you haven't been training like you should be doing!"

Everyone broke out into laughter until Bulma spoke up. "I was thinking," she began. "The Twenty-six World Martial Arts Tournament is coming up in a year. Why don't you get everyone back together and train in the Gravity Simulation I created and then participate?"

"That's all great idea Bulma!," Goku said. "Let's get everyone together right now and start training!" His thirst for a fun fight took over.

Before he could do anything else, he stopped and became serious. He stood straight up closing his eyes. "Krillin," his eyes snapped open. "You feel that? I think Piccolo is fighting someone, and he's strong."

"Yeah, I feel it Goku. I hope it's someone on our side though. Should we go?"

Goku thought for a moment. "Sure. If it's someone trying to hurt Earth, we need to help Piccolo but if it's someone Piccolo is trying to kill, we have to help them."

Before they could leave Gohan stopped them. "Can I go with Dad?" Goku looked at his wife who gave a approved look. "Sure Gohan, let's go."

All three of them left the house leaving Bulma, Roshi and Turtle behind. Roshi broke the silence. "So Bulma," a wide grin was plastered on his face. "It's been a while since I last saw-" he was cut off from Bulma smacking him across the room.

"Oh master." Turtle said in pity. He looked at Roshi who had a large bump on his head and a red hand print on his left cheek.

'Dammit! No matter what I do, it doesn't effect him!' Piccolo growled to himself. His purple gi was cut in torn and blood oozed out from various cuts on his body.

"Do you realize now insect!? I, Raditz, an elite class Saiyan will never lose to the likes of you! Now die!" A large purple beam of Ki raced from his hand towards Piccolo.

'N-no! I can't die here!' The Namekian thought as he watched the beam get closer. 'Wack!' In front of him stood Son Goku. "Need any help Piccolo?" He gave his signiture grin.

Moments later Krillin and Gohan landed next to the duo. "Listen Goku," Piccolo said as he stood up. "This guy is beyond my power. I think the best way to defeat him is to team up." He almost threw up from the last part.

"Really Piccolo? Is he really that strong?" Krillin asked kind of nervous.

"Yes! Look at me and look at him!" Growled Piccolo. Krillin glanced towards Raditz and back to Piccolo. "Hehe, sorry."

"Brother? Kakarot is that you?" Raditz asked. Goku turned his attention towards him. "It is you Kakarot!"

"Kakarot? Whose that? I'm Goku protector if this planet."

"Goku? Protector?," Raditz said in disbelief. "What are you going on about? Tell me, why is this planet filled with life? You were sent here to purge this planet."

"What are you going in about? I've lived here all my life. Now please, if you're not here as a friend, leave."

"You must've been dropped as a baby Kakarot. You are a Saiyan warrior from Planet Vegeta and you were sent here with orders to purge all life from this pitiful planet. I'll give you a chance, join me and purge the planet with your older brother or die with this planet and it's inhabitants."

Goku stood there shocked at the information he learned. 'Maybe that explains my tail, or quick learning to techniques.' His thoughts were quickly set aside.

"If what you're saying true and you are my brother, respect my wishes and leave, or I'm going to have to force you, family or not."

"It looks like my little brother wants to tell me what to do? Alright Kakarot, after I break every bone in your body, I'll purge this planet myself and then we can be off to meet up with our prince; Prince Vegeta."

"Listen Krillin, keep Piccolo and Gohan safe. If Piccolo dies, so does Kami and if he dies, no more dragon balls," Krillin nodded. "And also, I might not be able to take him alone so jump in if it looks like I need help."

Goku faced his brother and locked eyes with him. "Please Raditz. I don't want to fight what could be my only family left."

"Sorry little brother but either join me now or get your ass kicked and dragged back with me."

"If that's how it has to be." The Earth raised Saiyan slid into fighting stance with his milky aura engulfing his body. With a shout of might, his Ki sky rocketed far higher than Raditz ever imagined.

'How! His power level is 1,090! Impossible!' He thought. "Kakarot, how the hell did you get so strong!? Tell me." Raditz was furious.

"A lot of puships, sit ups, and plenty of juice." He replied.

Off in another part of the Universe, a certain spiky haired being sneezed. "Someone must be stealing my material." He said as he laid back in his space pod.

The two Saiyan rushed one another exchanging blows. Raditz more so brute strength while Goku more so with thought.

Goku knee was met with his brothers and Raditz punch was caught by Goku. They jumped back and launched at one another again.

The Earth raised Saiyan either dodging, blocking or taking the attacks from the long hair Saiyan.

'Man he sure is strong!' Goku thought as his blood began to flow.

"I will not lose to you Kakarot!" Raditz screamed as his aura created another shock wave sending Goku to fly back.

"You," he appeared in front of his brother. "My little brother," he hammered his brother down. "Can not defeat me!" He threw his arms to the sides palms facing outwards. "Take this! Double Sunday!"

'Crap! His sudden power boost caught me off gaurd. I have to do something!' The good Saiyan thought.

"Kamehameha!" A blue beam of Ki intercepted Raditz blast causing an explosion. Smoke arose over the battlefield.

Krillin grabbed his life long friend and pulled him out of the smoke.

"Thanks Krillin, he caught me off gaurd with that sudden boost." He thanked the Orin monk.

"Don't mention it Goku."

"He's a lot stronger than I expected. Our power is close to equal with him being more brute strength and not a lot of skill, I thought I would have a slight advantage but it appears I was wrong."

Piccolo approached them with Gohan in tow. "This is an enemy that we need to work together to beat and I may have the technique to beat him."

"Is this technique the one you've been practicing to use on me by any chance?" Wondered Goku.

"How did you-. Never mind. Just distract him for a few minutes so I can charge it."

"We'll do our best Piccolo!" Goku replied as he and Krillin turned to face Saiyan.

By now, the smoke has died down and Raditz was standing in the center with a slight purple hue. "Die Kakarot!" He roared as he launched himself off the ground.

Krillan and Goku powered up and charged towards Raditz.

Shock waves were being sent across the spinach wasteland. The nearby mountains began to crumbling, the ground slightly cracking and any clouds in a mile radius being destroyed.

"Tell me Kakarot, how does it feel to be so close to death?" The evil Saiyan chuckled as he was locked hand to hand with his brother.

"I'm nowhere near to finished!" Goku roared as he began to push Raditz back.

His teeth were clenched as he tried to regain control. His green scouter began to beep rapidly with an arrow pointing towards Piccolo. 'He's focusing all of his Ki into one single attack! I need to get finish this quick before he fired it at me!'

It only took a few seconds of being distracted for Goku to fully take control of and get Raditz into a position where he couldn't move.

"What are you doing Kakarot? I can't move!" Yelled Raditz.

Ignoring his brother, Goku began to speak. "Now Piccolo! This might be the only chance we have to defeat him!"

"But Goku! If he fires it, you'll die to!" Krillin tried to reason.

"It doesn't matter, you guys cab just revive me back to life with the dragon ball," he looked back to Piccolo. "Do it now!"

The Namekian nodded and extended his arm. A beam of purple energy with a yellow spiraling shot from his finger tip and towards the Saiyans.

The beam pierced through both brothers. Blood splattered everywhere as they laid on the ground.

Piccolo collapsed to the ground from exhaust. Krillin reverted Gohan eyes away from the scene. They thought it was over until they heard laughter.

"F-fools! You think that will kill Raditz?" He slowly began to get up. There was a hole right next to his heart. "Next time, hit your target."

"Dammit! The Special Beam Cannon used up all of my ki and I don't think cue ball can defeat him even with a hole is his chest.' Desperately thought Piccolo.

"Now, witness the transformation of a Saiyan!"

AN: Welcome to Altered Time! This is the story of what if Goku and Bulma were to get married. I started writing this on another account but with a few aspects changed. One being Hercule being a main character but the beginning of the Namekian Saga I realized I would have to force the plot on later arcs. Since then, I've attempted to rewrite it without Hercules but it hasn't worked. But now, I'm serious. I even have the sagas up to Buu and a bit of post planned out literally.

Please forgive the errors. Not the greatest typer and I don't really catch my mistakes even after doing a reread. Please review and also check out my other Fiction; The Golden Shinobi.
