The Brother War
Chapter 1
It's been years since Regeta was born. Goku and Chi-chi have gotten together and they had there first son Gohan. Regeta is now six and Gohan is five. Regeta comes running up to the front door.. he starts knocking on it. Footsteps are heard from inside. Gohan opens the door. " Hi Regeta!" Gohan said.
Regeta looks at his cousin. " Oh hi, is your dad home?"
" Yep.: Gohan opens the door wider and Regeta comes in. " He's in the kitchen."
Regeta gets a huge grin on his face. In the kitchen, Goku is stuffing his face with food. He loved to come over to see his uncle. He walks in to the kitchen. " Uncle Kakarot!" He shouts... as he jumps on him playfully
Goku's chair falls backwards with him on it. " Hi, Regeta." Goku said.
" What's new uncle?"
" Chichi made some really good noodles. Mmmm... they're so good with that sauce... its red... I forgot the name."
" Oh... great I love aunt Chi-chi's food..."
" Yeah... its so good."
Regeta was so cheery. He had such a good life
" Want some?"
" You bet!"
Goku got up, got a bowl, and filled it up with spaghetti. " Here ya go." Goku gave it to Regeta.
" Yum..." He starts munching down
Gohan comes in the room. " So cuz, how's your pop?"
Regeta looked at his cousin. " He's alright. He's been busy training me... and taking care of the prince... more ways then one."
" Oh, what do you mean?" Gohan said.
" I thought Vegeta was on his own by now."
" He's still chasing him around and he's helping him with his new role as King and all."
" Oh, I see."
Raditz was standing in the doorway. No one noticed. " Excuse me if I'm a bit insulted." He said
Everyone turned their heads toward him. " Huh? Oh, hi Raditz." Goku said.
Raditz came over and starts rubbing Goku's hair. " How's my favorite little brother?"
" Good. How about you?"
" I've been good." He turns to Regeta. " So this is where you've been hiding. You got training to do, young man."
Regeta pouted. " Do I have to? I wanna hang out with Uncle Kakarot."
" I don't what you want to do... you got work to do.. Hop to it. The faster you get this done... the faster you can hang out."
Regeta sighed. " Yes, father." He walks out the room, Gohan followed him
Raditz sat down next to his brother. " That boy is almost as strong as me."
Goku smiled. " Of coarse he is."
Raditz looked at his brother with a 'care to elaborate on that' look
" Yeah... its all very simple..."
" Just... not simple enough for my mind." Goku put his hand behind his head and started laughing lightly.
" You never change."
" But I'm glad that Regeta has such a peaceful life."
" But we both know that won't last."
" Yeah... its lasted for so many years... its amazing... but I know it'll end someday."
" You don't know how soon that is... I just found out..."
" What do you know that I don't?"
" When that bastard Kakuei is going to attack."
" How do you know?"
" I have my informants."
" Oh really. Hmm... so, when?"
" In about 5 days or so."
" We have to get ready. Did you tell Vegeta yet?"
" Not yet... i plan on doing that tonight."
" Ok."
Meanwhile, Vegeta and Bulma were in the kitchen eating. " It's been so peaceful... you know it."
" Yeah..." Vegeta chopped at the burnt food. It was pretty hard to chew.
Bulma looked at him. " Sorry... I really wasn't paying any attention to the food this morning."
" It's alright... I mean... its not as bad as those pancakes that tried to eat us instead of us eating them."
Bulma laughed. "Little monsters... that spit syrup..."
" Yeah.. i guess i really messed up with those."
" I've been scared of pancakes ever since..."
" Yeah i can imagine... So how's your training going?"
" Pretty good."
" That's good to hear."
" I've gotten SSj6 down. Just a few more to go..."
" That's great Veggie."
" ...don't call me that."
" Sorry.."
Vegeta sighed. Raditz came in. He was actually listening to their conversation. " Yeah... those pancakes could've taken over the world if we hadn't disintegrated them first." He said.
Vegeta cringes. " I thought you were with your brother? Hi, Raditz." Vegeta said.
" Hi, Veggie." Raditz said.
" Don't call me that!"
" Oh, c'mon prince... its not all that bad."
He grunts as he looks away. " Did you tell him... And where is that little monster of yours?"
" He's out training... hopefully..."
" You pushing him too..." Bulma said
" He's my son."
"Can't the kid well... be a kid?" Bulma said.
" He's a Saiyan kid. He can't slax off."
Bulma sighed. " Still... all kids like to play. Not train all day."
" It's best that he does."
Vegeta got suppositious. " Is something bugging you, Raditz? Even I wouldn't have my kid train all day in times of peace." Vegeta said.
He looked at him. " Of course something is bugging me. Things aren't going to last..."
" What is it? What's on your mind?"
" My other brother... Kakuei is coming..."
" When!"
" In a few days. And what makes it worse... he has the same kind of powers as i do... or so i remember."
"How long have you known this?"
" I have known for 6 years..."
" And WHY haven't you told me!"
" I just found out for sure he was coming last week,"
" You tell me a couple of DAYS before? I would've trained more!"
" He's not after you... He's after me..."
" I'm still gonna help."
" It wouldn't do you much good... In all ways Kakuei is much worse then me."
" Is Kakarot going to help?"
" He said he would."
" Then I am too."
" But then again... I don't want you two getting involved."
" Why not?"
" I want to settle the score with him alone."
" Whatever... but if I have to help, I will."
" You have no idea... how far back this goes... and what he did. You couldn't possibly stomach what he did. That is one reason i sent Kakarot away..."
" I don't care what he did. All I'm saying is that I will help you."
" And like I said... I don't want you involved..."
" I don't care if you want me involved or not."
" I don't need anyone's blood on my hands... I've had enough of that for one lifetime."
Vegeta didn't say anything. Just then Goku made an appearance... Raditz looked at his brother. " What are you doing here?"
" Yeah, Kakarot. Why are you here?"
" Well I was kinda listening in and I wanted to talk about this."
" Kakarot... it's difficult."
" You were eavesdropping?"
" Well... yes... but that doesn't matter."
" If he wants to know that's fine with me. As I was saying... Kakuei is one hell of a monster."
" You've said that already."
" I know I said that... I'm just repeating it. Anyway. He's done so much to hurt everyone. He tried it with you little brother but i prevented it. I appreciate the two of you wanting to help me but... please, don't."
" Anyone who thinks me and Kakarot should help Raditz say 'I'!"
"I!"
"I!"
Raditz sighs. " Why are you two so stubborn?"
" I get it from Vegeta"
Raditz turns to Vegeta. " Well why are you so stubborn?"
" I was born with it."
" Well hold it back for once."
" I don't think I can."
" If I can hold my evil back you can hold your damn stubbornness."
" Perhaps"
Just then Raditz sensed something. " That bastard..." Raditz anger was rising.
" What?"
" Kakuei has gone on another murder parade."
" Oh great."
" I can't take it anymore... that's 15 worlds..."
" 15?"
" Yes. he's destroyed that many."
" Geez..."
Raditz was doing his best to keep his power in check
" C'mon Kakarot." Vegeta flew out and Goku followed.
Raditz appeared in front of them. " Where are you going!"
" To stop him."
" Have fun... I know he's too strong for you two."
" For the two of us, perhaps." Goku smiled.
Raditz looked at his brother. " What are you smiling about?"
" Oh nothing..."
" Damn it Kakarot... tell me! Uh uh. Fine be that way..."
" We can show you..." Vegeta and Goku went SSj6. They're powers were exactly the same. They went a distance away from each other.
Raditz smiled at them. " I see. Your attempting fusion. Very impressive..."
They nodded. "Fu-" They started. " Sion." " Ha!" They're fingertips touched and a light surrounded them.
Raditz was amazed " They actually did it."
The light soon disappeared and Gogeta was standing where they previously were. Raditz clapps.. Gogeta laughed proudly. " I quite like my new body..." Gogeta examined himself.
" You may MIGHT actually stand a fighting chance against him..."
" I should hope so."
" But knowing him... he's been improving... much like myself. Which makes him very dangerous. Our powers are very much alike.."
" Of course he's dangerous... hey, you think I could ascend from ssj10?"
" In that form?"
" Yeah. I'm hoping I can."
" um... i don't really know. I doubt it."
" Dang."
Raditz once again got one of his headaches. He grabbed his head..
"Are you ok?"
" Sorta." Raditz's eyes were semi transformed. They were in between cold and lively. This worried Gogeta
Gogeta inched towards Raditz. " What?" He said semi coldly
" Raditz...?"
" Yes... what?"
" Is something wrong?"
He smiled evilly. " Everything's fine."
" No its not..."
" What's wrong then?"
" Your acting cold and… and freakish!" Gogeta was pointing at Raditz and shaking his finger like he was scared.
" What's wrong with that? It's not like I'm going to hurt you or anything."
" You could..."
" But I don't want too."
" That's one good thing."
As time when on Raditz's eyes became more dark. Gogeta noticed this and became worried. Raditz laughed evilly. The evil inside him was semi taking over " Raditz..."
" What?" He said coldly
" You're freaking me out..."
" Why?"
" Your eyes and the way you're talking."
" Your that scared of me... well you should be." The evil said. Gogeta runs around in circles screaming, acting scared. Raditz starts laughing evilly again. " Scardy cat."
Gogeta deffuses. Raditz looks at the two of them, the goodness in his face was completely gone
" Kakarot... why did you make me run in circles screaming?"
" I didn't, that was both of us."
" Because he's scared of me..." Raditz said coldly.
" I'm trying to argue with Kakarot now, so therefore be quiet and enjoy the show."
" I will indeed... i love violence."
Goku grunted. " Vegeta we don't have time for this now! We got work to do."
" But I wanna argue!"
" We can do that later... but right now... we have other issues at hand... like my brothers…"
Raditz was turning cold once again in front of there eyes. Goku and Vegeta argued, although in the back of their minds they were worried about him.
" Take that back!" Vegeta yelled as he tackled Goku.
Raditz power was sky rocketing again. Even higher then it was before Regeta was born
" C'mon Ve-" Goku said in between punches. "-geta, my brother is-Vegeta, listen to-"
" I'm having too much fun, Kakarot!"
' have your fun boys... because it won't last.'
Goku and Vegeta were exchanging punches and kicks as they hovered in the air. Raditz smiled evilly. He looked over in the direction of a city. He lowered his right hand toward it. It started to glow. Goku and Vegeta stopped and looked over. Goku gasped and tackled Raditz. Raditz got angry. " What are you going!"
" What were you thinking! You were about to destroy that city!"
Raditz laughs at him. " Did you really think i would..."
" Yes! You're becoming evil again! I can sense it!"
" You feel for that."
" Plus I can see it in your eyes..."
" They don't tell you everything. I told you not to worry. I'm not evil little brother. I wasn't going to destroy that city..." Goku wasn't so sure. Raditz was still in his 'evil look.' " You don't believe me?"
" I- I don't know what to believe."
" Well I'm not little brother.."
" You were evil before and right now I'm thinking you're fighting it."
" I'm in full control."
" The evil side?"
" Of it. The evil doesn't control me.."
Goku searched his brother through his eyes. " Then why did you charge a blast that was going to go towards that city?"
" I was trying to get your attention."
" Why do I doubt that?"
" Uh... why don't you believe me?"
" Because... something's not right."
" What isn't right?"
" How you're acting. What your soul tells me."
" What my soul tell you? And what does it tell you?"
" Your soul says there's a fight going on within you... you're actions tell me you're evil side is starting to take control."
" Then you are fooled and that is good."
" Its not good!"
" What do you mean?"
" May I interrupt your little quarrel?" came a voice...
" Who said that!"
" I thought you would remember my voice, Raditz..."
Hey everyone. How was that? I hope it wasn't too bad. I hope you enjoyed it. Please review.
