Akira Toriyama owns DragonBall Z, I'm just continuing it the way it should be.Anywho, let's get this party started.

"Gohan did you take out the trash yet?" Videl asked her husband as he entered the house.

"Yes dear I just took care of it."

Chi Chi could be seen sitting in a chair while looking out of a window. She talked to herself as she watched the day go by.

"Where is that Goku? He hasn't been around anymore."

"He's been training with Whis for a while remember?" Gohan answered having heard her question.

"Ah yes I forgot. Maybe I am getting too old for this", she said somberly but Gohan assured her she wasn't.

Off in the distance Krillin and Yamcha could be seen training to become stronger, having felt like they had been useless for too long and didn't want to be left out anymore. With a similar mindset Tien could also be seen training to get stronger.

Far away off at some distant plant, once labelled "True Namek," but now abandoned resides Piccolo. He had been told to go there by Whis but what he was supposed to be looking for he had no clue. The only thing he was aware of was that there was a very strong presence on this planet.

"What the hell are you doing Kakarot?! thought I told you not to show any remorse?!" Says Vegeta as he cleans off the dirt from his jumpsuit.

"Heh Heh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's like second nature for me to show mercy to my opponents." Goku says jokingly.

"Your joking would have gotten the planet destroyed by Frieza, if it weren't for me, just remember how you felt at that moment" Whis says as he is eating his puddi.

"Oh yeah, that's true, I never want to experience the way I felt at that moment" Says Goku as the smirk vanishes from his face.

"Well now, both of you fight me together, land a punch and we'll call it a day" Says Whis as he tosses out his Puddi.

Goku and Vegeta start punching Whis, he dodges all there punches with simple head pivots. Goku and Vegeta move to opposite sides and begin punching Whis, he ducks.

BAM

Goku and Vegeta punch each other in the face, falling down on the floor.

"At this rate you guys won't ever stand a chance for Lord Beerus." Says Whis as he polishes his nails.

Wolf Fang Fist

Krillin dodges Yamcha's aggressive assault.

"Now it's my turn!"

Destructo-Disk

Yamcha jumps and dodges Krillin's destructo disk.

"Not yet!"

The disk makes a U turn and is about to hit Yamcha's back.

Yamcha turns around and catches the disk with the palm of his hand!

"You think after all these years I haven't learned how to catch your destructo-disk?" Says Yamcha as he reflects the disk into the earth.

"I thought I had you there, well it's getting dark I think we should call it a day." Krillin says assuringly.

Krillin and Yamcha are walking towards the woods to get lumber for the fire. And all of a sudden they see a deformed shadow, in the distance, it appears to have two heads on a tall muscular body.

"Oh, Tien it's just you! Come on help us get lumber!" Yamcha says as he continues to find lumber.

"Tien why are you just standing there?! Wait, Tien where is your body?! Tien?!" Krillin says as he rushes towards him.

HEHEHEHEHEHAHAHAHAHAHA

"Fools, complete fools, I tell ya, can't you see your friend is dead?" Says this shadowy figure, in a demonic voice.

The shadowy figure tosses Tien's head on the floor, it rolls some feet away from the scene.

"W-who are you? And why did you kill our friend? We'll kill you!" Says Yamcha as both him and Krillin rush towards the shadowy figure.

As they get closer, they see this figure, a man of a big muscular build, red complexion, black hair and his eyes looked like that of a kind man tainted by his surroundings.

"Who am I? The name's Akuma, that's about all you will need to know, since you have one foot in your grave. And let's not get hasty. I assure you, your death shall come." Akuma says as he dodges Yamcha and Krillin, making them plummet on the soil behind him.

"Now get up, so you can also understand how death tastes" Akuma says as he turns around.

"We won't forg-"

Swoosh

Swoosh

"That is just about all I will hear from the both of you" says Akuma, as he carries their corpse.

"Goku, Vegeta, I have some very unfortunate news to tell you, Krillin, Yamcha, and Tien are dead." As Whis looks down in thought.

"Tch. Pathetic, those fools went off and got themselves killed." Says Vegeta as he looks at a distant tree.

"What?! Whis this better not be a joke, my friends, I was here training while they were fighting a strong foe! I can't forgive that bastard! I'm gonna go kill him right now!" Says Goku as he begins to rush off.

"What are you stupid? Do you want to get killed? I'll go deal with matters, although, since I have a high position I cannot harm another God of Destruction, so I'll try to tell him to leave." Says Whis as he pats Goku on his shoulder.

"G-God of Destruction?! Why did a God of Destruction kill my friends?!" Goku says as he collapses on his knees.

"That, even I can't answer. I would ask Lord Beerus, but he went back to sleep, he would be really mad at me if I woke him up." Says Whis as he teleports off.

Back on Earth

"W-Who're you, you're way too strong to be from this planet." Says Gohan as he steps back in fear.

"Gohan watch out! Behind you! Screams Goten from a near distance.

At that moment Gohan moves down in one fell swoop. Akuma swipes the air above Gohan, Gohan makes a 360 and punches Akuma in the gut. The punch does not faze Akuma at all he proceeds to striking Gohan into the ground.

Boom

Whis blocks Akuma's punch from landing on Gohan.

"So, you're here, Whis, what use do these weak beings hold to you?" Says Akuma as he backs off.

"They don't need to hold any use to me, I am quite fond of their potentials." Says Whis as he fixes up his hair.

"Why do you have to ruin the fun? I can't fight you or I'll be killed by the other God of Destructions. Sigh. I'll find a way to get rid of you as well." Says Akuma as he begins to leave Earth.

"Best of luck to whatever you're plotting." Whis says with a wicked grin on his face.

"Gohan, this won't do you're far too weak, I heard from your dad that you have Mystic abilities. Show me your power." States Whis in a serious manner.

"Alright, here it goes"

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

"Here it is, my mystic abilities." Says Gohan with a serious face.

"My, oh my, Gohan it seems to me as if you haven't unlocked even a bit of the potential you have. Come with me." Says Whis as he turns around.

"A-Alright! Goten tell mother and Videl I am going on a trip due to college." Gohan says jokingly.

In the other world

"Seriously you guys need to stop dying. All of you are summoned to go to the otherworld tournament." King Yemma says in a joking matter.

"Haha, that's right Yamcha, stop dying!" Says Krillin as he is laughing.

"You've died more times than Yamcha, Krillin." Says King Yemma as he looks out from his book.

"Other World Tournament? What's that?" Asks Tien with a perplexed look on his face.

"It's a tournament similar to what you call The World's Martial Arts Tournament, all the dead gather and only the best is crowned victorious." Says Yemma as he writes in his book.

"Umm. So how do we get there?" Yamcha says as he rubs his hand behind the back of his skull.

"Just go to King Kai's planet he will take you there" says King Yemma as he continues to write.

At King Kai's planet

"So you mean to tell me you guys died again?!" Says King Kai as he cleans his car.

"I have a feeling this tournament will help us get stronger. Perhaps dying this time was for the best. Although we can't be wished back by the Dragonballs and we wish to accept that since we would only hinder Goku against that evil foe, speaking of which is that guy still on Earth?!" Says Tien in a serious tone.

"Goku, Goku this is King Kai speaking, can you hear me?"

"King Kai! Are my friends there?!" Goku says in a perplexed emotion.

"Goku! It's us!"

"Guys, I'm so happy to hear your voice! I'm so sorry, I wasn't able to help you when you needed me the most, now you guys are dead and can't be wished back." Goku says as he is about to tear up.

"Don't worry Goku, it's best if we died so we can train with other strong warriors here and become stronger! If you find a way to wish us back, only do so after 2 years." Yamcha says courageously.

"Tch. Bringing you back to life will only get you killed again." Says Vegeta acting like he doesn't care.

"Guys, that's great, Vegeta and I will be training here with Whis, get strong enough to beat me!"Goku says with a big smile on his face.

On True Namek

Piccolo finds an old Namekian, he has a winkles on his face, a green skin tone, antennas in the shape of a mohawk and a big scar on his right eye, despite his age he appears to be very strong.

"Why have you come here? Go back to where you came from!" Says the old Namekian as he raises himself from his throne.

"I am not here to cause any trouble to you, I am here for the book of our ancestors, Whis has sent me here." Says Piccolo as he stares at the old Namekian.

"Well just because Whis sent you here doesn't mean I can just hand the book over to you. You'll have to fight me and beat me. To show your worth."

"The name's Xylo by the way." Says the old Namekian as he powers up.

Boom

The fighting commences

Piccolo rushes behind Xylo, and punches him, Xylo fades into the air, Piccolo turns around to see Xylo behind him. He jumps up into the air, Xylo does a somersault and jumps higher then Piccolo he starts his massive fury of punches on Piccolo's back. Piccolo spins in the air and grabs Xylo's right arm, Xylo comes for a left and Piccolo kicks his left leg in the air to stop it. Piccolo then proceeds to Kick Xylo in the head with his right knee. Xylo twists Piccolo's leg and tosses him to the ground.

Dragon Impalement

This move causes a dragon like aura to appear on Xylo's arm that hits Piccolo on his right arm. At first Piccolo feels nothing, but then Piccolo's arm blows up from the inside out. Xylo then brings his fist back for another round and hits Piccolo's left arm. He then recedes. Piccolo's left arm shares the same fate.

Piccolo regenerates both of his arms back causing his power to drain.

"Alright, that's enough, you have showed me your worth. I can see you have a very strong will to become stronger, I shall train you, although, you must acknowledge that the chances of you surviving this training are very little. " Xylo says as he fixes his hat.

"I had already known coming here wouldn't be a walk in the park, I am ready for anything that comes in my way. In order to get stronger I shall do whatever it takes." Piccolo says assuringly.

"Well I will tell you this much, you have to learn all the techniques in the book in order, and after that if your will is strong enough you will be able to do the fusion." Says Xylo as he sits on his throne.

In another Planet

"Oh my, that old Kai, he always does the job incorrectly, you cannot unlock your potential without hard work, you will have to go through my training and only after that I can unlock your true potential Gohan." Says a young man with brown hair, wearing sunglasses, and a huge sword the size of a giraffe's neck.

"Haha, I guess I have to train then, this doesn't sound too good." Says Gohan jokingly.

In the other world

King Kai is parking his car, after he drops off Tien and the others to the Underworld Tournament.

"Whoa guys everyone here looks really strong." Tien says in shock.

"I know right, our odds don't look too good." Krillin says while looking at the sky.

"Hey guys, is that Piccolo over there? Did he die as well?" Says Yamcha as he rushes towards this green being.

"Hey Picc-Wait you're not Piccolo." Yamcha says feeling dumbfounded.

"Piccolo? I've heard of that name before, by someone called Goku." The green being says.

"You know Goku?! He's our friend!" Krillin says enthusiastically.

"So you guys are friends of his, well it's nice to meet you guys. Wait how did you die, and why isn't Goku with you? He owes me a rematch." Pikkon says as he stares at the Z warriors.

"It's a long story, let's just say we want to become stronger." Tien says assuringly.

"So you guys want to become stronger, there is this new guy in these parts but he only trains the people he finds potential in if you can pique his interest he shall train you." Says Pikkon to Yamcha and the others.

"Although be aware some people wonder why he isn't in hell."

"Guys, I don't like this idea. I'm getting goosebumps down my back." Says Krillin as he worries.

"Don't worry, buddy, we can do this, plus this Pikkon guy makes it sound pretty easy, let's go." Yamcha replies.

As Tien, Krillin and Yamcha make it to the place Pikkon told them, they see a man that is almost as tall as a giant, with it's menacing look and cold eyes, the giant extends it's hand with a killing attempt, towards the Z fighters…

What will this beast do to Krillin. Yamcha, And Tien?

Will Piccolo and Gohan's training get them killed?

How is Goku and Vegeta's training going?

How is everyone on Earth?

Find out on the next chapter of Dragon Ball Z.

I had fun writing this chapter, it is the introduction to all the other chapters. Some might find this chapter boring since it does not have that much action, but I assure you in the upcoming chapters, the story is going to pick up. Also it will introduce characters like Kid Trunks, Bulma, Android 18, and Chiatzou that I left out of this chapter. That's all for this chapter, remember to fav, and review, I love any sorts of feedback.If I had any influence from another Dragon Ball Z fanfiction it would be from Dragonball New Age. Other influences I had are from Facade by MisterMukuro, event horizon, by Yousef and Triumvirate: Tethered Will Z by sure to check them out! These influences come from a website called Jump-Galaxy, with many people who helped me with this fan fiction.
