Heyy guys, been a while huh haha. I know I said that I felt suicidal when I left and that I was taking time out to see where things would take me, and the thing is well nothing really has changed. I still feel like crap, but I figured I should try writing once again and see where it would take me.

CHAPTER 1;
The sound of heels striking marble resonated along the dimly lit corridor, continuing onwards a while longer before ceasing. A dull gun metal grey door was in the way with a singular spherical window located in the centre of the door granting some view of contents in the room, however there wasn't a door handle for access. Instead a keypad with a hand print scanner was placed on the wall besides the door.
A sequential beeping of keys resonated along the silent corridor before the sound of the scanner activating replaced it. A momentary silence hung in the air before the hissing of trapped air escaping through the entrance broke through the silence. The door opened to reveal what appeared to be a laboratory of sorts, complete with scientists adorning white lab coats.
The room was dimly lit by electric lambs on the ceiling, whilst a red hue from large containers located around the room coloured the walls. However most intriguing of all was a large window, that was see through in appearance and located on the far wall. A multitude of lab coat wearing males and females stood before it, data-pads in hand as they furiously typed away. Located to the left of the window was a table, but it wasn't the table that was fascinating, more-so what was on the table. An orange ball with 4 stars etched beneath the surface was besides an ordinary looking brown bag as a multitude of scans ran over the two items endlessly every few moments.
The sound of heels ceasing their movement and a powerful aura of importance being imposed on the room made all the scientists stop what they were doing to look towards the origin of the aura. Once located however all the white coat wearing residents of the room bowed. "Good afternoon, Lady Kiryūin." came the unison greeting.
A very attractive woman stood before the bowed scientists. Radiant multicoloured hair, with a silver colour on top, and maroon-silver eyes were prominent features. "How goes your research on our three specimens?" her voice although silky smooth to the ear, was very much cultured and held an authoritative edge to it.
"The first specimen, which is the orange ball has been concluded to have been crafted by means we have no means of replicating with our current level of tech, whilst the bag contains what appears to be five ordinary beans."
Lady Kiryūin scowled, before growling in her throat; "No means to replicate it you say, huh? Then pray do tell me what all this top of the line tech is for! I will not take that for an answer, you are to find means of replicating that indestructible staff even if it's the last thing you do, are we clear?" The petrified scientist gulped, before meekly nodding his head in response. A smirk appeared on Lady Kiryuin's face "And what of the other specimen?"
The scientist composed himself, clearing his throat and pulling on his collar before answering; "A D.N.A test was-conducted, and the results have proven our theory of him being non-human to be true. More over continued study of his biology concluded with unforeseen results. The specimen's cells are capable of self-repair if given ample time. However, they re-generate to be almost four times as resilient as before"
Eyebrows rising ever so slightly with this revelation, the maroon eyed woman proceeded to smirk. This was all too perfect, with the recent acquisitions her plans could move forwards at a much faster rate. "So, in conclusion, what does this mean for Operation Life Fibre Synchronisation?"
"He is the perfect candidate for 100% life fibre suit synchronisation."
"Excellent, begin the experiment at once"
The head scientist bowed deeply "As you wish milady" promptly straightening up, he turned around and took a brisk walk to the window, where his fellow lab partners were standing. Pulling back the hair over his left ear revealed a small earpiece. A gloved finger delicately pressed on the earpiece bringing it to life, before he spoke into the receiver "Begin operation 100% life fibre synchronisation"
"Understood." came the reply over the line,
All eyes were then trained to the window, in preparation for what was to transpire in the experiment. The electric lights dimmed, leaving the room to be bathed in the red lights from the large containers.

The coveted specimen appeared to be none other than a young man. His palm like hair was a prominent feature, aside from the sheer amount of muscle visible on his naked teenaged frame. His lean frame was however covered in small scars and scratches. A breathing mask was strapped over his nose and mouth, with a multitude of probes, cables and wirings covering his body and each doing a designated job.
An alarm rang briefly to signify the commencement of the experiment, the shrill sound silencing all watching. It was quickly followed by a few red strings falling from the roof before floating ever so slowly towards the exposed chest of the specimen. The few strings glowed briefly before stretching and stitching together to form a small patch of red cloth over his chest.
This action however elicited an involuntary shiver from the unresponsive palm haired specimen. As if satisfied by the previous reaction of the first strings, a multitude of them rained from the roof and into the room, and upon landing on exposed flesh they gleamed brightly before they too stretched and formed a patch of cloth.
The whole process transpired quickly, with the strands cocooning the specimen eliciting groans and grunts of displeasure from the young boy as they attached together to form the new pieces of clothing. Once done the formerly naked specimen now had a new set of clothes covering him.
On his feet were a pair of white high-top converse shoes with a red star below the ankles, whilst his legs were covered by a pair of black joggers. A red short sleeved shirt was worn beneath a black leather jacket, however there were two eye designs located on either side beneath his shoulders and besides his armpits. Three silver lapels were located on the left sleeve of the leather jacket.
The synchronisation was seemingly complete; however, the process had not been easy on the teenager. Small beads of sweat littered his forehead, whilst his chest was rising and falling rapidly as he struggled to catch his breath.

The rapid contact of skin with plastic was all that could be heard, with the scientists rapidly typing away all the data they had been collecting from their probes and cables in the room. Initially they had begun with a small amount of life fibres, as if to test the waters. Once the fibres had reacted exactly as planned they had moved forwards and amped the amount to the full 100%.
However past experiences left them wary and expectant of failure, but they needn't have worried since all the fibres had reacted just as planned. A quick look from the head scientist towards his employer had him releasing a breath he didn't know he had been holding in.
Lady Kiryūin had been keenly watching the happenings with a sharp eye, observing as the life fibres bonded with the specimen and causing him little to no discomfort whatsoever 'A true testimony to his biology'she thought, however she knew something her lab coat wearing underlings didn't, and that was the true purpose of attempting 100% life fibre synchronisation 'Those fools think they are making a Goku uniform, when in actuality it's a Kamui. And with him in my possession once I activate the Kamui with his blood the feeding of humanity to the life fibres shall begin'
Once satisfied with her internal plotting she watched as her subordinates removed all the cables and probes that were attached to the specimen. A sinister smirk graced her features as she looked on 'Time for phase two' a delicate hand was raised ever so slightly and inconspicuously, but that was all she needed to do. A small gesture with it towards the dormant Kamui was initiated, before it went back to rest by her side once more. One thought graced her mind as she closed her maroon eyes, 'Let the show begin'
XxX
Inside the room where the experiment had transpired, a few of the scientists were currently working on checking on the vitals of their successful experiment before moving him to the medical bay to recover. All the probes had been removed, and the stretcher was awaiting to go.
"Are you guys all set?" inquired one, before receiving nods as each scientist grabbed a limb to lift. "Ready… Steady… LIFT…" they all heaved with their might, and successfully managed to lift the palm haired boy a few inches of the table when suddenly one of them hastily dropped his limb and put some distance between himself and the table. "I think that jacket just moved!" he exclaimed, his tone panicked.
"Are you sure?" questioned another, before they inched slowly forward to take a closer look when a small groan was heard coming from the boy. The young adult continued to groan as he lifted his head up, before onyx eyes that were still adjusting to the low light slowly scanned the room, before they snapped open, followed up by the owner of said eyes staggering to his feet.
He was however unsteady, as he kept on grabbing his head whilst swaying side to side. "W-what d-did y-you d-do t-to m-me?" his words were slurred, panicked and spoken just above a whisper, but the other residents of the room heard him. A female scientist from the small group tried moving closer to him to calm him, but he visibly tensed "It's okay, everything is fine. You're among friends, we're not going to hurt you."
The young male visibly relaxed at the female's words. A part of him was telling him to trust her, even though she was a stranger to him. He smiled at her before replying "O-okay, but can you tell me where I am, I can't remember anything?"
The female smiled at the young adult "We are currently in the lab doing tests on you. You were specifically chosen for your biological superiority over the other specimens." she responded before looking back at her companions,
"You can relax guys, he is not going to harm us." in response she received a sneer and a scoff whilst one snapped at her "Easy for you to say, you're a girl." there was heavy emphasis on the word girl, before he continued "He obviously wont attack you Eiko, but we men are a different story."
Eiko stuck her tongue out defiantly at him, before looking once more at the young man, "Don't mind them, they are stupid. Now I need you to remove your clothes then come with us to the medical bay to rest. I know you don't feel well, so there's no need to pretend to feel well, okay uh… what's your name."
"Yeah, you're right Eiko, I feel so tired. In fact, I don't remember much just my name." his words clearly conveyed his puzzlement at his fatigue, before he continued, "My name is Son Goku."
Eiko took out her tablet from her lab coats pocket, before opening up Goku's profile. She scrolled down to where his name should be, but instead it read 'unknown'. Eiko cleared it and changed the name to Son Goku. She looked up from her tablet to see Goku as he removed his clothes causing her to screech as a massive blush worked its way to her face, which in turn caused Goku to turn and face her. "Eiko are you sick? Your face is all red.", all other members of the room bar Eiko and Goku burst out laughing, whilst the former just face palmed at her predicament.
"NO GOKU I'M NOT SICK, ITS CALLED BLUSHING YOU MORON AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PUT YOUR BOXERS BACK ON!" screeched the female scientist, whilst hiding her head behind the data pad in her grasp "And you're tired because of the life fibres attached to your body in the form of your clothes fed of your blood for nourishment. So, it's a good idea to drink loads of fluids and eat a lot of food high in sugars to replenish it back." she continued from her hiding spot as she regained her composure.
"What happened to my old clothes, and where did these come from?" questioned Goku as he placed the set of clothes on the bed beside him.
Eiko opened her mouth to respond but was cut off by one of her companions "Look we have wasted enough time as it is with this idiot, it's time to bring him to the medical bay like we do with the others." after he finished he beckoned his other male compatriots and they all left the room leaving just Eiko and Goku.
The former sighed wearily before smiling weakly at the young saiyan, "Don't mind them Goku they are good people, but certain circumstances can bring out the worst in people…" however Goku's answer left her feeling better about the whole situation, "It's okay, it doesn't bother me. Anyways let's go to the medical bay, I don't want you getting in trouble."
Eiko in response snorted a laugh, before playfully punching the young Saiyan's exposed upper arm which too her felt like punching a brick wall. "Ugh, what are you made of steel!?" she shrieked before pouting whilst massaging her sore hand, Goku on the other hand just shrugged, "I don't know actually." he replied with a chuckle.
With a shake of her head Eiko motioned for Goku to sit back down on the bed, "I need you sit here for a sec. I have to get you cleared once more to leave the room since you are capable of moving on your own two feet now." Goku nodded in response, before hopping back on to the bed as he watched Eiko make her way out the door. The door slid shut behind her automatically leaving Goku with the company of his thoughts.
The main question was where he was exactly, sure he couldn't recall much with his brain feeling fuzzy, but a few things were coming back yet it still felt as if something was preventing him from accessing his full memories. 'I need answers, but where can I get them.' he mused before noticing the door. Sure, he had been told to stay inside the room but maybe they wouldn't notice if he left the room quickly.
Having made up his mind, Goku hopped of the bed as quickly as his tired body would allow him to before making his way towards the automatic doors which he half expected to open, but they stayed closed. Following this momentary setback, the young saiyan then looked around for any other exit and noticed the large one-way view window.
He moved towards it and tapped lightly on it in an attempt to gauge its strength. Once satisfied he could easily break it he placed his hand flat on the glass before channelling a small amount of his energy through his hand and into the glass, which in response shattered into a thousand tiny pieces that miraculously fell lightly over the lab floor. Goku peeked into the dim room, and with his amazing eyesight thanks to his saiyan genes he was able to easily make out all the inhabitants of the lab.
They were all turned away from him facing in the other direction, whilst talking in a whisper. Noting this Goku saw it as the perfect opportunity to get the drop on them, however he forgot about the glass on the floor. The glass crunched audibly underneath his soles causing everyone in the room to whirl around to face him.
The sudden sound of cocking guns, and slow clapping could be heard causing Goku to turn and face the direction the clapping was originating from. A tall woman who was flanked by several armed guards stood clapping, with a sick smirk on her face. "Nice of you to drop by Son Goku, I was expecting you." The fact that he was also stark naked did not go unnoticed as she found herself eyeing his incredible toned body.
Goku looked at the lady with a quizzical look on his face "Uh hi, are you in charge?" enquired the young saiyan as he meekly rubbed the back of his head. Still smirking she responded with a calm tone "Maybe I am, but why does it matter?" Goku smiled broadly, his stance relaxing as he started to move towards the older lady "I have some questions that I wondered if you could answer."
All the guards however instantly trained their gun sights on Goku, causing the Saiyan to stop moving as he looked at them quizzically which earned a chuckle from Lady Kiryūin "Ah ah ah Goku, if you want answers then I need you to stay where you are, and I know just how to do that." Raising her hand, she snapped her fingers together before muffled cries of pain and anger were heard shortly as another guard moved forwards with Eiko in his grasp. One hand was covering her mouth, whilst a gun was aimed at the back of her head. She looked worse for wear however, as she was slightly hunched over on her stomach were a thick scarlet stain covered her stomach, and trailed down her body towards her legs, a quick look towards Goku and Lady Kiryūin almost cackled in delight. She had him where she wanted, as the young specimen's fists were clenched with veins visible all over his arms, whilst his face was scrunched up in anger.
"Let her go!" barked Goku before he continued "What does she have to do with all this?"
"Ah, ah, ah young man, you're in no position to be asking such questions. However, I'm feeling generous today, if you stand down and allow yourself to be sedated I'll tell you everything you want to know." Goku looked at her sceptically, before he visibly sighed. He was about to answer when a yelp of pain from the guard holding the injured Eiko brought his attention back to her, "No Goku don't do it, I'm not worth your…."
BANG!
It happened almost instantly but to Goku's trained eyes it had all been in slow motion, watching as the bullet pierced the back of her skull and straight through the centre of her forehead. She was dead before she hit the ground and Goku knew it as he watched her lifeless body crumble to the floor.
Suddenly nothing mattered to him any-more, not the sound of gunfire as the other guards gunned down Eiko's killer and certainly not the cultured voice of lady Kiryūin attempting to goad him into attacking. All he could hear was the solitary sound of his heartbeat 'Badum, badum, badum.' before it escalated in tempo to become nothing more than a loud ringing in his ears. A powerful wave of rage hit his very being, and instead of rejecting it he found himself embracing it, like an old friend coming for a visit. He willed it to consume him, forming a cocoon of comfort and courage around him.
Lady Kiryūin watched Goku intently looking for any reaction to Eiko's death. To be honest she hardly cared about any of her subordinates, they were easily replaceable after allbut this one had proven useful by attaching herself to Goku and thus creating the perfect opportunity to break Goku, she attempted to goad the young boy "So Goku what are you going to do now, your little friend is dead. I guess you have no option but to join me now." but received no response from him, as he intently stared at Eiko's corpse.
"Capture him now while he's distracted." she ordered to her guards, whom with an affirmative nod in response moved towards the unmoving Saiyan. Next instant they knew they were all thrown back by a powerful combination of energy and a warrior's shout from the teenager, accompanied by a bright golden flash of light that temporarily took away their vision.
When the light died down however they were all shocked into stasis by Goku's appearance. He still looked the same, yet his once pitch-black hair had now spiked up and turned golden in colour, and his pure onyx eyes were now a piercing turquoise in colour. The Kiryūin heiress stared at the magnificent appearance of Goku.
He was almost god like in appearance, with a golden pulsing aura that enclosed his frame like a shield, his muscles were now bigger and even more defined than before if it were possible coupled with piercing turquoise eyes and a scowl on his chiselled face. The Kiryūin heiress found her heart unexpectedly beating faster, with heat rushing to her cheeks and nether region which left her flustered and confused. In fact, she was so flustered she almost didn't hear the request of an order from the guards,
"F-Fire a-at w-will" she managed to stammer out 'WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME, THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. AM I REACTING TO HIM, BUT THAT IS PREPOSTEROUS, I AM NEARLY THRICE HIS AGE, SON GOKU WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME?' her thoughts were panicked, and her flustered state wasn't helping either.
Upon receiving the order, all the guards raised their weapons instantly on the leather jacket wearing boy, before opening fire. There was a multitude of flashes from several guns, spewing out silver coloured bullets. They continued their onslaught, before the clicking of empty magazines stopped the frenzy.
They all looked around at the damage caused to the room, with bullet holes littering the walls and ceiling. Sparks flew from machinery that had been caught in the onslaught, but there was no sign of any damage to the young man. His golden shield still pulsed, whilst his skin had no bullet holes on it.
"My turn." growled Goku, he raised his hands to forehead with his palms facing the wall behind him. His adversaries tensed in preparation, all hunching lower expecting an attack of some form yet Goku had other plans. Almost by instinct he shouted "Solar-Flare!" causing a bright flash of light as dazzling as the sun itself to bathe the entire room. Screams of pain from all those that had been staring at Goku cut through the room.
Looking up he noticed as the guards and the tall lady slowly blinking their vision back. 'I need to get away from here.' he mused, before looking for a way out yet he saw none. Frowning he started to panic until his eyes fell upon the door. 'Bingo' he thought before running towards it.
Upon reaching it he ran into it eliciting an 'ooof' of pain whilst leaving a deep imprint in it. 'Damn it, it's locked' he looked for a handle or an access panel but found so instead he just pushed on the door with all his might and was shocked to see it bend in half like a piece of paper and thus allowing him free passage from the room and out into the world.
XxX
I have decided to revamp this whole story, I just was never satisfied with the way I originally planned on taking it, so now I shall be going down a different route, a much more adventurous route but that won't be revealed for another long while.
Goku won't have amnesia, but instead it's only for this chapter and maybe the beginning of the next one, and it's all due to a drug that he was administered that clouded his mind and memory's for a while.
Initially I had Goku meet Satsuki at the beginning but no matter what I could never think of how to go onwards from there so in this revamp he shall not meet her which means the lime had to go unfortunately.
Pairings are Goku x Satsuki x Ryuko, there is one more I was thinking of alongside with a few non-cannon couplings that I feel should have happened in cannon.
