At the age of three, Gohan was successfully kidnapped by his uncle, but due to the massive injury he dealt in the battle against Goku and Piccolo, Raditz leaves little Gohan in a random planet as the space pod was also damaged. And what happens when Whis finds this lonely child and give him a future to look forward to. And in that future he returns to earth with no past memory?
Points to remember, Beerus is awake till Cell has been destroyed before being knocked out for six years. Please don't flame me on this.
Chapter 1: A New Beginning
"Argh! Brat! Stop your whining!" It has been a whole day in terms of earth time, and yet the small crybaby didn't stop his crying. The small body of Gohan was decorated with big purple bruises and broken limbs, which he acquired from his annoyed, beat up and frustrated uncle who stole him.
Raditz by the way was a complete mess. His left chest was punctured and his right knee was smashed, nothing too dangerous for a Saiyan as the wound has already stopped bleeding.
"Warning. Graviton generator overheated. Auto landing procedure activated. Brace for impact in T-minus 30 seconds." The pod's mechanical voice informed, further angering the Saiyan.
"What! God dammit! You stupid piece of shit! Abort landing procedure!" To no use Raditz shouted and within the allotted seconds, the ship landed on the surface of the unknown planet. The hatch opened and Raditz immediately threw out Gohan, the small child's body flew several meters away. His clothes were torn and his tail was folded in an odd fashion. He tried to scream out the pain, but only tears were there, no scream of pain came because his uncle already burned his little tongue two hours into their initial journey.
Gohan tried to get up, but he found his right foot to be dislocated. Unable to do anything, he laid back and cried silently, praying, begging for someone to help him. Hours went by before a shadow came over him. Raditz has finished fixing his pod.
"Stand up you dumb brat!" And a kick was delivered to the tiny chest and once again the boy was sent flying over the ground and got slammed into a solid hard rock before falling down limply.
Raditz waited for the boy to get up, but Gohan remained motionless. "Brat! Get over here now!" Seeing no response, Raditz made his way slowly to the unmoving child, his face didn't show any concern, instead it was that of annoyance. When he was standing over the child's body, he knew the reason for the motionless body, a broken neck, he chuckled with dark humor before walking back towards his pod. With a small dust storm, the Saiyan pod left the uninhabited planet's atmosphere, leaving the useless body of the child behind in the barren wasteland.
Inside the child's head, he could feel his ability to breath decrease. But more than anything, he wanted to see his mother, want her to hug him, comfort him and protect him and he knew this would never happen.
Then as he felt his soul slipping away from his tiny body and cold started to seep in, a warm hand came and rested on his forehead and like magic, the small warmth spread all over his being, taking his pain away and leaving a cool sensation on his skin. He wanted to open his eyes and see what was happening, but along with the pleasant sensation came sleep, blissful unconsciousness.

Beerus, the God of destruction sat on his cozy couch, enjoying his oversized cooked tuna while waiting for his teacher/Butler, Whis to return. He wasn't in any hurry, in fact he was quite enjoying his lazy time alone-
"HA!" A blue blast slammed onto his face as he was about to put his precious tuna into his mouth, but all that remained was fish dust. Beerus shook in rage before he roared.
"Gohan!"
Ten years had passed since that fateful day when Gohan was rescued by the God and brought him to Beerus's temple along with him to train the child and give him a life. And as of that child..
"Ah Ha! Owned you again!" well, he's not a child anymore. Standing a full five with broad shoulders and a chiseled body and face, wearing what appeared to be a blue Kai outfit and his brown furry tail was wrapped systematically around his hip, acting as a decoy belt was Gohan.
"Oh let's see about that brat, I'm going to make an example out of you!" Beerus jumped with a kick aiming for the demi-saiyan, who in retaliation kicked the underside of the cat god's thigh and averted the direction of the attack, but the well aged fighter in skill took his experience carefully and attacked Gohan with a midair jab which the latter was able to block with his muscular forearm but was unable to contain the strength behind it and got the full force of the attack that sent him into the wall, making a crater there.
Gohan was quick to get back up and dodge the incoming bullet ki balls into the crater which destroyed the walls. "Oh man, still a tough cookie!" Gohan exclaimed before shooting a barrage of ki at Beerus who effortlessly blocked them off.
"You have improved vastly my friend, but you should have never destroyed my precious tuna!" Beerus disappeared and reappeared in front of Gohan and engaged in hand to hand combat, without another moments delay, Gohan spiked up his strength while blocking Beerus's assaults.
An hour or so passed before the young teenager collapsed in exhaustion from the relentless fight he started with the God of destruction, who by the way was not a bit tired and had a small smile on his face, a rare smile, not one of imminent destruction, but that of pride, pride in the boy's achievement in becoming a strong fighter.
Kneeling down, Beerus picked up the smaller person gently, with care that should not be present in a being such as him. "Ha, I can still remember the small twerp you were.." Beerus walked towards the corridor, the damaged environment behind him mending itself back to new.
"..always crying, always apologizing.." The door to a light blue royal room opened itself and Beerus took the boy inside and placed him on the silky bed.
"..well, you are turning into a fine young warrior my friend, and I can't be anymore surprised I suppose at your strength and will. Sleep well." Beerus patted his friend's head before exiting the room.
Beerus walked back to his fully repaired living room and sat down, ready to have another round of fish. "Well, that was interesting." The voice caused the cat god to jump up.
"Whis! Where were you! I was so hungry, I had to take the fish by myself!" The teacher deadpanned at his student.
Whis sighed and sat down next to Beerus, keeping his scepter on his lap. "I missed you too." He sarcastically greeted his student.
Beerus didn't really care about sarcasm or annoyance from his mentor anymore as he is already used to. "So, what caused for your delay?"
Whis sighed and leaned back on the couch, assuming a more comfortable angle. "Well..you know the Herans right?"
"Yes. I destroyed them." Beerus answered nonchalantly.
"Well a bunch survived and with their leader Bojack, they were wrecking havoc across the universe until the Kais sealed them.." Beerus still remained uninterested, but Whis knew he was listening, although simply for the sake.
"..and the lesser Kais banded together and sealed the space pirates away and placed the lock on King Kai's planet which blew up and released them from their prison and now they roam around destroying planets until they reach earth." Beerus snorted.
"Well, if that Kai didn't piss me off, I wouldn't have blew up his planet. Besides, why are you telling me this now? It's been like a century or two since that happened?" Beerus asked curiously.
Whis shook his head. "No Beerus, this happened after King Kai made a new planet out of the rubbles. A Saiyan named Goku, had destroyed that remaining chunk in a battle with a very powerful foe that threatened the universe."
Beerus chuckled. "Oh, you mean Cell? Hmm..this Goku, he sounds familiar.." He thought out loud.
"Yep. I have heard it too, but I can't remember." Whis smiled broadly at his youngest student, who was completely healed and refreshed from the earlier spar, but quickly returned to the subject. "Anyway, hi Whis when did you get back, and Beerus, what's this about Cell?"
"Ah, you know the green bug I placed the task of destroying earth?" A shake from Gohan's head caused him to growl frustrated. "Argh! What were you doing when I lectured about keeping the balance of the universe?!"
Gohan chuckled at his friend's antics. "Nah, just messing with ya Beerus. I know the green bug, a bio android made by a mad scientist called Gero, right?"
"Hmm you are not as dumb as you act, after all." Gohan grumbled as he sat down on the couch opposite to them while Beerus chuckled.
Whis watched the duo in amusement for a moment before clearing his throat. "As I was saying, and now this merry band of pirates are headed to earth with the full intention of destroying earth. And as a form of offering alliance, the Kais wish to destroy these threats for the earthlings and want you to destroy them, especially King Kai, he said you should deal with this as a retribution." A smug look came over his face as Beerus started to get annoyed.
Listening to the interaction carefully, Gohan knew there was something more. "Tell me Whis, why is this Goku person so important, that the Kais themselves want to help him? After all he is quite strong from what you said?"
Whis sighed tiredly. "Well, you guys know the Cold Empire, right?" Beerus gave a snort while Gohan nodded. "This guy defeated the King and his sons." Beerus spit out his tuna.
"Ugh! This isn't completely cooked!" Beerus exclaimed angrily before looking at Whis with narrowed eyes. "Hmm from what I know, this individual that slayed the Iceans was a Saiyan..so, is this Goku, a Saiyan?"
"Indeed. Just like our Gohan here." Whis saw Gohan's interested look, he turned back to Beerus. "Well, what is your decision?"
"I can go!" Gohan jumped up and volunteered.
Beerus looked curiously at the demi-saiyan for a moment. "Alright. But inform if anything must go wrong?" Gohan nodded.
"Uh Gohan, you won't have to go to Earth. You will find the pirates at these coordinates." Whis gave the information to Gohan's mind.
The demi-saiyan grinned. "Sure! But after that, I will be going to challenge this Goku person!" And in a golden light the demi-saiyan disappeared.
"That boy is growing up fast." Whis gave a small smile.
"But I am more interested to see what will happen in the future, a battle between father and a lost son. But mind you, if something happens to Gohan, I will personally kill that stupid monkey." Whis chuckled at Beerus's statement.
"Oh, that won't be necessary. I am sure we have trained Gohan enough to overcome his odds. Besides, you beat him up on a regular interval when you spar. If he is able to live through the beatings of you, then what is the problem?"
"That's different." Beerus shrugged. "He is my little brother and friend, as a teacher and family, I have the right to discipline him, but if somebody else even scratches a hair on his...grrr..I am going to destroy Earth-ooff!" Beerus fell unconscious and Whis sighed in relief.
"You can sleep for six years, Beerus. You have been awake for so long, and yet you destroyed only very little, I can't laugh either, that child has opened a new chapter in our lives, hasn't he? I will miss you Gohan...but, I cast you to Earth, may our path cross again." Whis smiled sadly before picking up Beerus and taking him inside.

Gohan waited patiently in the vacuum of space, not at all affected by the lack of oxygen, after all, living with Gods had it's perks and this was one of those. Gohan's patience didn't go to waste as he saw a small blue ship sailing towards his direction, surely after sensing his power. Wanting to test that theory, he flew down to the planet which was barren but sustained air and a moderate atmosphere, the ship followed him.
He landed softly on the rocky terrain and relaxed for the pirates to exit their ship as well and was relieved when they did it in the matter of a few seconds. In front of him stood five Heras, all varying in color and size, four of them males and the remaining a female.
"So, you the power I sensed?" The leader, as typically expected of one, stood a step in front, with his arms folded, the rest of them were sporting grins of their own while remaining relaxed.
"You should bow." The orange haired lady, Zangya stated.
This only managed to confuse Gohan. "What?"
"You should listen to what Zangya said." Bido chuckled as he unfolded his hand.
"Uh why?"
"Because you are standing in front of the future ruler of the universe, the King of destruction and the most powerful individual, Lord Bojack." Bido finished.
Gohan scratched the back of his neck, which he usually does when he is completely lost. "Sorry, I didn't get that part, but..let me just confirm this, you are Bojack and all five of you were trapped until recently when someone blew up the Kai's planet, right?"
Bujin laughed. "That is correct, now if you would kneel down, our Lord might spare you."
"Kneel down? Buddy do you know why I'm here? To stop you from getting to Earth. We can do this the easy way, that is die simply, or the hard way, die horribly." Gohan gave a sinister grin that was not supposed to be seen on a thirteen year old.
"Kill him." Bojack commanded, and without a moments delay his four henchmen charged at Gohan, who remained unfazed by the incoming threats and at the last moment, he grabbed Bido's and Kogu's arms but gave a huge opening for Zangya and Bujin who took advantage of it and slammed their feet and fist respectively on the demi-saiyan's face and chest, only to be shocked and soon frightened, as Gohan didn't even stagger back.
Zangya and Bujin leapt back just in time to witness the demi-saiyan's hands glow and their two companions who were caught turn into dust. "Seriously guys? I thought the Kais had powerful foes, and all I get are some wannabes."
Bojack growled before glaring at his remaining two minions. "Well? Do you need to be requested? Attack him all at once! Galactic Buster!"
Without wasting time, Zangya held out her hand. "Shoot Blaster!" Followed by Bujin using his Psycho threads on Gohan. But before any of this could reach Whis's disciple, he gave a wave of his hand and cancelled everything altogether.
Suddenly he disappeared, causing panic among the three pirates before one of them, Bujin lost his head, it was sent hurling in Bojack's direction which the latter blew up. Zangya stood frozen with fear and took a step back when Gohan appeared a few steps in front of her. Suddenly, Bojack appeared behind her. "Zangya, you out lived your usefulness." With that he threw her to Gohan and fired a ki blast, Zangya screamed in horror, but nothing happened.
She got up and turned around to see what happened. Gohan stood in front, with his back towards her. His clothes seem to have torn up but other than that, no other harm seem to have happened to the demi-saiyan. "Why did you attack your own comrade?"
"Ha. You are one to talk." Bojack taunted. "You killed three of them, so I just wanted to even the number, after all, she won't be of any use."
"Hmm..I am not sure that makes any sense, but I for one am getting bored..so..I am going to rip you apart and be on my merry way." Bojack didn't have a taunt or an insult for him as he felt an arm inside his abdomen before being separated at waist before getting disintegrated into nothingness.
"Ah man..he destroyed my shirt.." Gohan whined before turning around to face the lady he saved, who by the way was cowering in fear. "You won't happen to have any spare clothes do ya?"
And that's how Gohan and Zangya were on the ship, still searching for clothes. "Wow. I didn't know Pirates had so many clothes!" Gohan exclaimed as he went through the clothes.
Still nervous about the thirteen year old entity in front of her, she stuttered her reply. "I..I..uh, I lie..clothes..I mean I like clothes! Like like! Sorry!" Gohan giggled at her nervousness.
"Come on, you can relax. I am not going to kill you madame, of course I will kill you if you give me a reason to, so I suggest you stay put. Now tell me, how do I look in this?" Gohan's words shocked her, it's as if he didn't care about how he used words at all, as long as none annoys him. And the clothes he put on surprised her.
"Uh..that's a..Planet Trade Organization armor..I took it from one of their abandoned outposts..it was used by..Saiyans..so..it pretty well suits you..even though...you are a Saiyan?!" Zangya exclaimed when she finally noticed the brown furry appendage wrapping around his waist.
"I am a Saiyan, I know, my planet was destroyed by Frieza." Gohan gave one of his stupid grin, although the matter he was saying was of very sensitive nature.
"But how are you so strong then?" Zangya quickly clamped her mouth at her sudden question, but noticed that Gohan was still grinning.
"Well that's because my trainers were two gods and I am a Super Saiyan. Anyway, answer me this, what is Planet Trade Organization?" Zangya swallowed hard, unable to believe but at the same time, knowing it must be true.
"It..it is a sort of governing body..well..used to be..until the cold empire infected it." Zangya spoke carefully, still not sure what is going through inside Gohan's head.
After a moments thought, Gohan began. "Hmm so now the infection is gone because this Goku individual destroyed Frieza and his family a few years ago. So..who is controlling this organization now?"
"Frieza..is dead? Hmm no wonder this Goku was able to free us.." Gohan cleared his throat, seeing Zangya has missed his question, the result was immediate. "Whaa? Oh sorry! Uh..it's never controlled by the Iceans..uh..just the planet broker side was controlled..so..uh..its probably under Oranos.."
"I see..I must confront Whis about this." Gohan glowed, blinding the Hera before disappearing, but confused her when he reappeared. This was done a few times until he stopped with a stoic face.
"Whis has banned me.."
Zangya looked confused. "Banned you from where?"
Suddenly his tense posture relaxed and Gohan sat on the pilot seat. "Nah, that's just how Whis is, he just surprises us out of the blue." He gave a stupid grin and leaned back. "No wonder why my clothes got destroyed..the magic that connects it to the otherworld is snapped." He deduced.
Zangya wanted to ask the boy more questions about where he came from and who he is but from the earlier words, she knew he was not of this world, but still she refused to ask in fear of his reaction. That's when she noticed his gaze, it was staring at something beside her.
Gohan stood up and walked lazily towards the item of his focus. It was round white and shiny and the feeling of déjà vu crept up. "What is this contraption?" Gohan curiously asked.
"Its a Saiyan pod..Saiyans use it to get to planets they want to purge.." She carefully answered.
"Oh..fascinating.." Gohan touched the windshield and was granted with the hatch opening. "I am taking this outside!" He enthusiastically held the pod and teleported it.
Once outside, he got in and made himself comfortable. "Oh! What's this?" Gohan took a scouter that was kept at the side and looked over it carefully.
Zangya hastily came out to answer his question. "Its a scouter, to sense power levels..that's how we found you." He got out and handed the device to Zangya, surprising her, but she quickly placed it on his right eye. Another few minutes passed as Gohan enquired and gained knowledge of the political working of the Universe from Zangya, who by the way was also outdated for thirty years.
"From what I assume, you could still get a fresh start. Why don't you go to earth? And start anew?" Gohan suggested as he stretched the spandex material.
"A-anew?" Zangya stuttered.
"Yeah! From Whis, I heard that earth is really an interesting place. Why don't you go there?" Gohan asked excitedly.
"Why earth?"
"Well..I don't want to come there just to fight, I could say I came to visit a friend." He gave a broad grin that fluttered the Heran's heart.
"F-friend?" She spoke with uncertainty on what she heard.
"Yeah! I mean..you are my friend now..aren't you?" Gohan asked with a little hurt in his voice.
"B-but..I tried to kill you!" Zangya exclaimed.
"That's in the past." Gohan sagely replied earning a deadpanned look.
"But its just an hour."
"My dear friend, for me time is not important. I sense a change in you, and I am putting my faith in you, till we meet next time." Gohan was about to take off when he stopped and turned around. "Can I take the pod?" Zangya only nodded dumbly before exclaiming.
"What's your name?"
"Let it be for next time friend!" With a smile he disappeared in a golden flash with his new pod and clothes, leaving the lady warm at heart.
Zangya left after her new friend's departure, fully determined to make a change in her life. She set her coordinates to earth once again, but this time for a completely new purpose, to start a new life.
It took a few weeks, but finally, she reached earth, the blue glowing planet fascinated her. "Initiating landing procedure. Downloading planet data." The computerized voice revealed.
Within a few minutes, her ship landed in an isolated part of a forest on the earth. The ramp opened down and Zangya carefully stepped out. The air was clean and the surrounding was peaceful. "Maybe I should start from here."
"Stop!" The Hera stopped her movements and looked up. There floating above her ship were a bunch of males, one among them was a Namekian.
"I didn't know there was a welcoming committee.." She muttered under her breath. She didn't know, neither did she care whether the group heard her or not.
"Where is the rest of your group pirate?" Piccolo questioned her.
"Dead."
The reply caught them off guard. "What?"
"Are you deaf? My team is dead." She was getting annoyed.
"She's lying! I know her kind!" The lavender haired stud charged at her, turning his hair blonde, but just as he was about to punch her, Zangya disappeared and Trunks felt his wind get knocked out of his body, followed by his Super Saiyan.
The rest didn't wait and charged at her, two of them turning blonde, much to her annoyance. "Well..if you can turn blonde, I can do something too! Kyaaa!" With a cry, her hair raised and she switched into Super Hera.
The human fighters were the first to fall. And now came the hardest part. Vegeta charged in, engaging in hand to hand combat. "You might have taken out my son and the humans, but you are not going to get past me, the Prince of all Saiyans!" The words stunned her for a moment and Vegeta took advantage of it by attacking her with an uppercut.
The Heran grunted as she took another hit from the Saiyan known as Goku. She was able to knockout the rest without causing much damage, but she knew she was far outmatched for this one with or without her full power. "Why are you attacking me! I did not do anything provocative!"
"I know you space tyrants, I lost my son because of someone like you!" She had enough of this.
'Oh..I'm gonna regret this!' She stopped all her movement and dropped out of Super Hera and closed her eyes, awaiting pain from Goku's fist, which by the way stopped an inch before her nose.
"Fight!" Goku angrily urged.
"No! He gave me my life back so that I could start a new one! Not continue with my blood bath!"
