Author's Note: Well this is my first pure-DBZ fic. Ever since I played Burst Limit this has been bugging me as a plot bunny. I don't like a lot of the Dragonball arcs so we'll just have 2 chapters of Dragonball before moving on to the DBZ-verse. Note that the first bit is almost directly from the canon I do not own.

o-Prologue: Family-o

"Ka-me-ha-me-HA!" Goku thrust his hands forward and the collected energy blasted forth into the opposing structure…leaving a small cantaloupe size hole.

"Oops!" Goku humorously pointed at the hole. "I don't have a lot of practice! I thought the hole would be bigger."

As Puar and Oolong flew through the small hole a rage came over the boy. That dwarf is going to use grandfather's Dragonball! Red clouded his vision and unknowingly his power level began to rise. He took a step back and cupped his hands, his body tensed as he channeled more energy than he ever had before.

"KA! ME! HA! ME! HAAAA!" With another thrust of his palms a blast almost equal to that of the Turtle Hermit's original pummeled through the wall and continued out into the wasteland. Puar and Oolong swerved off course to avoid it.

Pilaf's eyes widened as he saw the beam blow out of the wall and past his team, "Wha-what the HELL was that?" The blue dwarf screamed.

Out of the dust he saw a small form come running at them, "AH! Quick the Dragonballs!" He made sure they were set, "Dragon come forth! Grant me this wish!"

As the dwarf cried this out the balls glowed brightly and storm clouds gathered where the dragon appeared in a burst of electrifying energy, awing the mortals viewing it.

"Reflect upon your desires, mortals. For I shall grant any wish, but only one." Shenlong's voice rumbled throughout the castle and the surrounding wastes.

"O-okay right the w-wi-" Pilaf's stuttering was cut off as Goku's boot connected with his head sending him tumbling. "Ah! My Lord!" His minions ran after him.

"Make your wish, mortal." The dragon again rumbled this time looking down at Goku. The young alien's eyes widened as it dawned upon him that he could take the wish now. "Oh…wow…" Suddenly a member of his grandfather came to mind. "Mr. Dragon I wish I had my family back."

"Your wish is granted. Fare you well." With a burst of light the dragon turned back into the Dragonballs and dispersed.

Two separate bursts of light also occurred. To Goku's right a form of an adult male with hair and a tail similar to Goku's appeared, seemingly shocked to be where he was. To Goku's left the form of a surly teen also with a tail but this time really long hair appeared.

The teen was the first to speak, "Okay now where the FUCK am I?" Glancing around he saw the adult first, "Fa-father? You…you're DEAD!"

Bardock however was looking at the short form of Goku, "Ka-Kakorat? Is that really you my son?"

Goku glanced back and forth between the two, bewildered. "The dragon said my wish…so…you're my real family? My dad and…brother?"

Raditz's jaw fell open as Bardock pulled Kakarot into a hug. "It is you! I've been dead so long! And I never got to see you after you were sent to that planet!" He saw Raditz's dumbfounded expression and pulled him into the family hug as well. "Raditz you were somehow brought here too! Now we can be a family for real this time! And eventually…we'll avenge our people!"

That got Raditz's attention. So my father didn't go soft in death. Good…

Goku's friends stood back looking on the family reunion.

Kakarot looked up at his newly regained father, "Avenge our people? What happened?"

For the next few hours Bardock explained the final days of his life starting on the extermination run where he'd been given precognitive abilities, which seemingly had not transferred with him after death. Eventually he outlined a plan to train Raditz and Kakarot to become powerful enough to take on Frieza between the three of them and called Goku's friends over.

After a long discussion on the Dragonballs and other things it was decided that Bardock would take his family back to Son Gohan's rural retreat to train alone. In order to keep up with his rival Yamcha was going to seek out the Turtle Hermit and demand training with Puar. Bulma was to head back to Capsule Corp and promised to get back into touch with Bardock soon to pick his brain on Saiyan technology.

"Now my sons…we shall began our hard journey…to JUSTICE!" With that he levitated off the ground along with Raditz and were about to blast off when they noticed Kakarot was not following. "What are you doing runt?" Raditz questioned.

"You can FLY?" Kakarot's dumbfounded expression cause both his relatives to faceplant right into the ground.
