The Fury Saga

Episode 1- The Mysterious Visitor

I gazed towards the Heavens as this strange UFO like object made it's way, slowly, to the ground. My Father, who was by my side, was also locked in a deadly trance with this Ship. Was it the Saiyans? I don't think so. The Earth has an intergalactic treaty with the Saiyans on, and I don't think even they would dare to defy such a law. However, we ARE talking about Saiyans here…The self proclaimed most powerful race the Galaxy has ever seen. With Goku dead, and only Gohan left, if there was a Saiyan in, invasion, would Earth stand up to it? Gohan is now an old man, he isn't the warrior he used to be.

The ship suddenly came to a shuddering halt…An eerie silence cast it's shadow over the planet Earth. The door of the ship slowly began to open and a white figure could be visibly seen. Who was it though? I looked at my Father, and he looked straight back at me…Something was seriously wrong. I dove my hand into my pocket and pulled out a Scouter. I began to read the power of the Mysterious traveller from space. "12,000! ". My Father was considerably stronger than me. Before Goku's death, he had trained my Father as a boy…He never told anyone WHY he chose MY Father, and that's what had puzzled me for some time. The mysterious traveller slowly began to walk towards us, whoever has was wanted to see us. Now, the figure stood only a few inches away from my Father and myself. He was obviously a Saiyan Warrior, we could tell that because of his armour, but his body looked someone battered, yet, he was smiling.

"I am Nepras. I am from the Planet Vegeta, and I've been sent to Earth to warn you people of the dangers that await you in the future!" The Saiyan Warrior spoke with a clear voice, and every word was bellowed out precisely. "I'm Gotrun and this is my Son, Chris…" I smiled, not really knowing who this guy was or why I was smiling. My Father seemed at ease with this guy, which led me to believe that this meeting was no coincidence, never the less I stood paying full attention to my Father and our visitor.

"Come, my friend," My Father instructed, "You must be tired after your journey, we'll go to my place and talk about your purpose here…And I'll see if I can get you something to eat!"

"Earth always did have great Hospitality!" chuckled the Saiyan.

My Father led the way as the Saiyan followed myself and Dad back to our small house. "Dad, do you know this guy?" I said eagerly.

"Sort of. You see, what you're about to hear son, is going to change your life. When I was a boy Master Gohan told me something that would come true. He told me that in the future, war would break out, and that unless Earth yields at least 1 great Warrior, it would perish at the hands of an evil tyrant…That day draws ever closer with the arrival of our Saiyan visitor."

My Father's word's hit me hard. The fact that my Father had just claimed to know that a war between the entire Galaxy would break out, shocked me naturally. However, the most surprising thing about this whole situation was that my Father wasn't acting particularly nervous, he was at ease and was completely satisfied with the arrival of the strange Saiyan. Obviously, he knew something I didn't, but what? We entered the House, my Mom was out, so we all sat around the table. Nepras and my Dad started to talk, but before they get deep into conversion, Nepas said, "Should the boy be hearing this?" "Chris is a big part of this, it is only right that he should stay and hear this…" replied my Dad.

Me? A big part? Suddenly, my fate shot before my eyes. I was beginning to change. Those words changed me, for the better. Now, I knew that my life wasn't going to be average, I knew that I was going to become part of the biggest battle the Universe had ever seen. THAT very thought sent a chill down my spine.

"Ok, but be warned, boy…The path ahead is filled with danger, death but a lot of ass kicking!" joked the Saiyan. Although I really didn't think this was the sort of thing you should be joking about, my Father laughed and I thought it would only polite if I did too.

"So, here's what happened…A few weeks ago, Planet Vegeta was invaded by a gang of villains known as the Big brigade," said Nepras, who talked strongly, and with great emotion.

"The big brigade? Hmm, I've heard Master Gohan talking about those. I heard that at one time they were a very fearsome gang of warriors, but somebody defeated them and they disappeared. I seem to also recall Master Gohan telling me that there power levels dropped by quite a lot after their defeat. I would have thought the Saiyans could handle a bunch of rogues like them…" said My Father, for now he was deep in the conversation and his mind was locked in thought.

"That maybe so, but the real threat is yet to come…I am merely a messenger who barely escaped the Planet with my life. You see, the Big Brigade proclaimed that their employer was a dark force with a Power level twice that of any Saiyan!" said Nepras.

"And you believed him? How do you know he wasn't bluffing?" My Father inquired.

"Well, we saw their Employer…From a distance at least. We have yet to reveal his identity, but I can tell you that our Scouters have estimated his power to be in the region of 500,00 and that might be suppressed." Said Nepras.

"Whoa! That's some power…I can see why you barely escaped with your life. However, what I want to know is why did you come to Earth?" said my Dad.

"You're next on his list…Unless you can resist this evil power and the Big Brigade, Earth is toast." Said Nepras, nervously.

"I see…But how and why did you come to ME?" said my Dad.

"You have Saiyan blood…Of course you knew that, but did the boy? I don't think so. Your offspring must know that they are Saiyans, and that you are descendants of the Planet Vegeta. You could change it all, my friend. You have time to train and prepare for the long battle that awaits, because without the power of a Super Saiyan…The galaxy is certainly doomed and everyone on Earth will die." Said Nepras, coldly.

I couldn't believe what I'd just heard! I was a Saiyan. That meant that my power would increase with every battle. I was now part of once of the most viscous races known to man. It was like someone had given me a power surge, because I now could feel it flowing through my body. I was becoming a true Warrior…Little did I know that this was just the beginning.

"In that case, son, it's about time we started training…The Planet Vegeta is only about a month and half's travel from Earth, and if this Super power comes here first, we're in serious trouble." Bellowed my Father in a rather worried voice.

"And now my friends, since I have delivered my message, I will return to Vegeta…Me being here puts your lives in danger." Said Nepras, "Farewell."

Nepras rose to his feet and parted from us. In exactly 5 minutes my life had become somewhat different. I know that the future of the Earth hangs in my Father's and my hands. I knew that a lot of training awaited me, but I figured that it was time to become a man. It was time…to reach the next level.

Saiyan Destiny! Episode 2- And so it begins…

I looked at my Dad, who starred back at me. His eyes were full of pride and I could tell that he was going to revel in the challenges that awaited him. I, on the other hand, wasn't so sure. A power level of 500,000? I figured that I'd stay well away from this dark power and let my Dad sort him out! What if he couldn't though? My Dad would d…die! I hadn't thought of this. You see, I was overcome with excitement, I was NOW a Saiyan…I had completely forgot that I could die during the battles that awaited me. It was if fear had left my body completely, I was a Saiyan, nothing could hurt me! But, the reality of it all was that, it could…

The next morning, my Father woke me up very early…He was dressed and ready to go, but where?

"We are going to see…Someone." Said my Father. Who though? Santa Claus! My Dad got up and slowly walked to the door. He beckoned me to follow, and I did, but where were we going? We walked for a few miles, until we came to a small "Hut-like" House. My Dad knocked on the door and an old man answered the door, "I've been expecting you for some time now, Gotrun" said the Old man. I was confused. My Dad seemed to know everyone, but me, I didn't know anything or anyone. Suddenly, the Old man smiled at me and whispered to my Dad "So, this is the one, eh?" "Yes," My Dad replied. Now I was really beginning to feel lost. People were talking about things and I had no idea what they meant are why they were saying them…Yet.

I plucked up the courage to query the Old man, "Who are you?" I asked, with a slight taste of fear in my voice. "I am, your new mentor, Chris, I am Gohan!" said the Old man, who continued to smile. Gohan? THE Gohan! I couldn't believe it…I was stood a few inches away from one of the greatest Warriors of all time, and he was saying he was going to train me! I nearly fainted!

"You do now about the boy, right?" Gohan questioned Father…

"Know about him? His power? Yes, it's very high for one so young…" replied my Dad.

"Ha! You think THAT'S all? Gotrun, I think I'd better have a word with you in private…" said Gohan with a tint of excitement in his voice.

That's all? What did he mean? Was Gohan trying to tell my Dad that I wasn't your average Saiyan? I didn't know, but one thing I did was that I was very, very confused. One of the most powerful warriors that ever lived was trying to tell my Father something about me, but yet, I didn't know what. This made me feel pretty weird, because it was as if I didn't know myself. I stood there gazing in wonder at Master Gohan as he took my Father into another room and began to talk to him privately.

Suddenly my Father screamed "WHAT! That's impossible!" at the top of his voice! This had me really worried…I'd never seen my Dad acting this way, and apparently it had something to do with me. Then my Dad and Gohan came out of the room, and my Dad took a hard glance at me and said "No way!" Gohan smiled once again, as my Dad looked on in shock.

"Gotrun, not a word…" said Gohan. At this point my Father nodded.

"When does he start training then?" asked my Father, it was obvious that he was still in shock due to whatever Gohan had told him.

"Right now." Replied Gohan, to my Father's apparent amazement!

"Very well," Gotrun said, "Chris, Gohan is going to train you…Do your best, Son, I'm proud of you…" And with those words he left the house and disappeared over the horizon, leaving me and Gohan, alone. Gohan and I starred at each other for several moments, until I finally plucked up the courage to talk to my new mentor. "Hi, I'm Chris, it's a pleasure to meet such a fine Warrior like you."

"The pleasure is mine, young Saiyan." Replied Gohan.

"Huh?" I said.

"In time, you'll learn…Now come, we have a lot of work to do." Said Gohan, and this time his voice sounded quite serious.

We walked down a long corridor and finally we came to a door. Gohan pulled the door open, and now I saw a massive field in front of me. Not for the first time today, I was confused! What was I going to do in this field?

"You're going to train to defeat this Evil Super power…If you don't, Earth will be destroyed." Gohan said.

What! He had read my mind! Whoa! This guy wasn't anything normal, he WAS A Super Saiyan, after all, but if he was so strong, why wasn't HE going to fight this Super power? I'd better keep my thoughts to myself though, I mean this guy did apparently have the ability to read my mind.

"Right, Chris, I've searched your thoughts and I can see that you have one main weakness, you care too much for your friends and the people you love. In the battles that are awaiting you, you must release these fears and accept that you have made their own destiny, and you can't do anything about that. There's going to be a time when in one hand you will have the fate of this Planet, and in the other the life of someone you hold dearly…I can't make that choice for you, but I will say this, your conscience will help you make it."

"But Master Gohan, why is this happening to me? I'm just an ordinary 14 year old year old with a bit of a power level!" I said.

"A BIT of a power level! There are some thing, that you will have to find out for yourself…But do me 1 small favor, please…" said Master Gohan.

"What?" I responded.

"Power up, and give it everything you've got and we'll see what level you're at…" said Gohan, and again he was smiling…

"Ok." I replied…

I began to call my strength forward. By now, every part of my body was tingling…The power was beginning to flow through my veins, but just how much had I got? I tried my hardest to push every last inch of energy and convert it into power. All of a sudden Master Gohan started to smile. I stopped powering up.

"Do you want to know what your current power level is?" said Gohan.

"Sure…" I responded.

"90,000!" said Gohan, and he continued to smile!

"Whoa! That much, and I haven't done any training yet. Why is it so high, Master Gohan?"

"Because Chris…You're not like the rest of us Saiyans, there is something different. Your Father and I know what it is, but we can't tell you, because you wouldn't be able to handle it!" boasted Gohan with an air of confidence in his voice.

"Oh. I'm not going to argue with you, Master Gohan. You were the strongest warrior in the Universe at one point, and now you're training me…I can't believe how great this is!" I beamed.

"Try and hit me, Chris." Said Gohan, the smile had disappeared, and now a look of real seriousness had taken it's place.

"Why!"

"Just DO IT!" roared Master Gohan.

I lunged at him, but he moved quickly…I was easily angered. I darted at him again…And again I missed. Then I threw a series of left-right combinations, but to no great avail. I couldn't hit Gohan, he was too fast. Now, I was breathless and exhausted.

"Why couldn't you hit me?" asked Gohan.

"You're too fast." I replied.

"No, because you weren't trying to hit me…You didn't want to hurt me. My brain is faster than yours, if that's what you mean. Speed wise though, we're the same…" exclaimed Gohan.

"Really?" I inquired.

"Yes." Said Master Gohan, and again he started to smile. "Tomorrow, I will teach you a technique that I learnt when I was a child. Now, Chris, go home and rest…Come back tomorrow, bright and early."

And with that, I left. Thoughts of the battles that awaited me filled me with excitement. My destiny was on the battlefield, and my power level was growing by the day…
