Author's note: Hello everybody and welcome to the first chapter of An unlikely pair, I hope you enjoy the story. This is my first attempt at a fanfiction story so it may be a bit off in places, please offer any critiques in my writing so that I can improve. Anyways enjoy and have a good read :)
A lone ship traveled across the vast star-filled void of space, the vessel had seen better days as it had scratches and torn metal flapping on its sides that threatened to fall off. Inside the ship, two figures in black raggedy cloaks were in the control room frantically pressing away at the control as they tried to stabilize the craft. The cloaked figures were roughly the same height with one only being about 2 inches taller than the other.
"This is bad this ship won't make it!" one of the cloaked figures yelled out with a frantic female voice, "I told you not to damage the ship, but you just had to fight those soldiers right in front of the ship" the other figure remarked irritability with a masculine voice which was far more calmer than his companion. The female cloaked figure turned to her companion raising her arms in a guilty manner, her lower arms had a cream colored guards with a long green gem in the center.
"Alright I messed up okay, but I can't miss a chance to have a fight and those guards seemed stronger than the others at the time…" she replied guiltily before an explosion of flames burst from on the terminal she was at making her jump in panic backing away from the flames. The other cloaked figure made no reaction to the fire nor his comrades panic, continuing the press the controls of the ship handling their vessel movement through space. "How can you be so calm when we're going to die!" the female screamed out as she stood next to her partner shaking in fear that their commandeered ship would explode with them in it at any moment.
"We aren't going to die the sensors have picked up a planet nearby in a local solar system, will set course to land there but expect a rough landing," the male figure said as he fiddled with some control as the ship then swerved left to the nearby solar system. A blue planet with blue oceans and green land masses, it was a beautiful planet with white clouds, as the ship approached the planet it began to rumble as a series of explosions echoed through the ship. The craft then began to fall into the atmosphere with no stable movements shifting wildly as more of it began to tear away.
Inside the female cloaked figure held onto a nearby panel screaming in fear as the ship was being covered in flames in the inside as it crumbled around them, her companion trying to maintain the ship's direction to land on the solid ground than the ocean of the planet. "Hold on this is going to be one hell of a landing!" he exclaimed as he pressed some buttons before standing up going near to his companion, a purple barrier of energy formed around them as their ship gained speed from the gravity of the planet. The ship burning up as it followed it crash course down to the down into the planet, it came near a small house like structure heading straight into the large rock towers around it.
Little did they know that they would soon catch the attention of one of the most powerful beings in the known galaxy, The legendary warrior who had killed the Tyrant of the galaxy Freiza. The legendary Super Saiyan Son Goku.
Meanwhile with the Goku
"No way I won't let our son develop your bad habits!" Chi-Chi dried out in anger, Goku in front in a singlet and blue bushy pant, her son Gohan in white armor with blue spandex that he had kept for his journey on a Namek. "Are you nuts no way, I won't let you interfere with his studies anymore!" she barked at her husband in their son's room with was filled with boxes filled with study books- more than what seems necessary for such a young child who was not even in high school. Goku the legendary who had defeated the infamous lord Frieza trembled at the fury of his wife for no power in the world would save him from the woman's wrath.
"But Chi Chi we really need Gohan in this fight his one of the strongest fighters I know, I just need him this one time then he can spend the rest of his life studying" he reasoned with his wife hoping to get her to budge. She didn't, her eyes filled with an intense fury as she walked up to her husband "I said no and that is final you can go train on your own, I refuse to let our son live his life without an education like his father and become a muscle-bound idiot!" she all but shrieked at the two as her son stayed quiet not wanting to direct his mothers fury at himself.
"Chi Chi, you can't be telling me that Gohan's studies are more important than the fate of the planet are you?" Goku asked his wife, he knew she was adamant about having Gohan study but surely she wouldn't choose his education over the fate of the world. "That's exactly what I'm telling you!" his wife yelled in his face as she covered her face "Do you know how much I suffer for only wanting the best for Gohan," she said as she began to sob much to the surprise of the two males of the house.
Just as he was about to say how he didn't realize how much she cared about their son, A loud crash followed by an even louder explosion made the house shake. Chi Chi was about to fall on her face but was caught by her husband and son, waiting for the trembles to stop Goku and Gohan wore concerned expression for Chi Chi who seemed slightly pale from the tremor. "What was that?" Chi Chi asked trembling a little from the shock of such an unexpected event, Goku and Gohan looked at each other unsure themselves. Then they felt too strong power levels from the direction or the explosion, did another member of Frieza forces or family come to attack earth again?
Goku looked to his wife with a serious expression that made the cruelest of opponents shiver "Chi Chi I'm going to go investigate the explosion you stay here, Gohan will make sure your safe" he said to his wife who nodded in agreement will Gohan was a little upset. "Why can't I came with you dad?" the young half Saiyan asked his father who ruffled his hair with a small smile "I understand you want to help Gohan but you need to stay with your mother to make sure if something gets past me that you can protect her" Goku explained to his son who lowered his head but knew that he understood.
"I'll be back soon I promise, the others probably felt those energies and are on their way to so don't worry," he said as he ran out the door flying off the ground heading towards the explosion.
Flying in the sky he could see a large cloud of fire and smoke flow up into the sky, flying towards it keeping track of those two powers he sensed. One power was very strong a little stronger than even Frieza, the other while not as powerful was definitely something that could cause a lot of havoc on earth. Arriving at the scene he landed to where the smoke was pouring out from, he was surprised with what he saw, it was a ship which was shaped more like an oval than the usual sphere like ship Frieza and his mans has used. It was horribly damaged at it was torn in half fire and smoke everywhere with one half a complete mess of burning scrap metal.
Just then he could sense familiar energies approaching, they were close by so he turned to greet his allies. Piccolo landed without his usual weighted clothing only in his simple purple gi, he was followed by Krillin, Tien, and Yamcha the four of them with grim looks on their faces. "Glad you guys made it," Goku said to his friends as they nodded back to him, Piccolo crossed his arms "Where's Gohan?" he asked noticing the young boy missing "He's with Chi Chi just in case something happens to make sure she's safe". Piccolo nodded as he turned his attention to the ship "Do you think it's more of Frieza's family come for revenge?" the namekian asked calmly as Goku gave him an unsure shrug.
"I'm not sure, I don't think so considering that the shipped crashed" he replied as he turned and walked closer to the ship followed close behind. "Are you sure we should be getting so close to the crash what if it's a trap?" Krillin stammered out with careful steps alongside his old friend, Goku stopped near the wreckage of the ship "I don't think someone would go through so much effort to make a trap to get to Goku Krillin" Tien replied to the bald monk as they all stood around the wreckage. "It doesn't hurt to be cautious Tien we don't know what tricks these guys will pull" Yamcha reasoned with his friend, it was true they didn't know what lengths their enemy would take nowadays.
Goku stared at the wreckage waiting for the owner of the two energies to walk out, he hoped that maybe they were just simple to aline folk who had an honest crash. Then he could have Bulma help them out and that'd be that, however, the powers he sensed made it unlikely that this was completely an accident. Suddenly some of the rubble was covered in a faint purple glow as it moved away revealing two cloaked figures who were in a purple ki barrier, he narrowed his eyes as his friends watched as the barrier lifted itself away from the wreckage.
The barrier fell as the cloaked figures landed on the ground with a small thud. They then looked at Goku and his friends their expressions unreadable under the cloaks, when they did they took defensive stances thought the cloaks still only showed their hands and feet. Goku wanted to see if he could get a better idea of the two individuals so he decided to talk to them "Wait we don't to harm you" he said with his arms raised for them to not cause a scene, the larger cloaked figure gave a snort "really it looks certainly looks like you and your friends are ready to fight" the male voice of the cloaked figure mocked the Z fighters as his stance didn't change.
Piccolo then pointed to the wrecked ship "Did you intend to land on earth?" he asked calmly as the cloaked figures looked at each other, their stances were lowered.
"No, our ship was heavily damaged on our trip and we were forced to land on your planet earth" The male cloaked figure replied, Goku was relieved to hear that weren't more of Frieza's forces that had come here to attack his friends and family. The female cloaked figure stepped forward "If you truly aren't here to fight us could you direct us to someone who could get us a ship?" she asked hopefully which in return Goku gave a toothy smile, "I have a friend, Bulma who is amazing with machines and making vehicles. I'm sure she could make you get you a ship in no time" he replied joyfully, the smaller of the two figures sighed in relief "That sure is a relief, thank you for the help...um mister?" she asked unsure of his name and he was all too happy to introduce himself.
He walked up to the taller cloaked figure offering his hand "I'm Son Goku nice to meet you!" he said cheerfully as the cloaked figure shook his hand with a firm grip "I'm Grimoire and this is my companion Caulli" the figure introduced himself and his ally. After they're handshake a sudden gust of wind blew through the area, the hood of the cloaked figures fell backward revealing their faces. Goku's heart went cold as he saw the face of the person's hand he was holding, it was one of Frieza's race!. This one had white armor on his head with a face guard blocking his nose and mouth, his eyes which were a complete light blue with purple markings around his eyes. The mauve colored skin could be seen just above where the face guard didn't cover. He had a curved horn on each side the horn on his left side smaller than the other, in the middle of his head was a large dark blue crystal. Goku in that moment jumped back taking a battle stance as he then noticed the face of the other cloaked figure.
It was a girl who must have been only a few years older than his son, she had spiky black hair that reached down past her shoulders. Onyx eyes stared at him in surprise, his friends had all taken battle stances ready to take one of the Frieza kind. "You're one of Frieza's kind, then you were lying you must be here to kill us!" Krillin yelled out as he shook in fear looking at another of the tyrant's kind memories of the bald fighter time on name resurfaced making his blood feel like ice.
All the gathered warriors of the earth took a battle stance ready to fight, Goku felt his anger begin to pour out as he was covered with a gold aura. His hair floated up becoming golden, his eyes went from the onyx black to a teal green. He had become a super Saiyan his transformation sending strong winds around the area, Grimoire and Caulli stared in shock as they both took a step back at the golden warrior. Goku stared down the both of them with a serious glare the removed the peaceful nature he had seconds age a new hostility now emanating from the warrior.
Grimoire eyes were as wide in fear as he couldn't believe his own eyes "You're the one who killed Frieza, I can't believe that such power exists" he said in disbelief finding himself unable to move as the overwhelming power of the being in front of him. Caulli then got in front of her companion waving her arms "Wait please Grimoire is a good guy, he's nothing like that tyrant Frieza please don't kill him!" she pleaded as she protected her ally. The Z fighter and Goku especially were surprised to see someone protecting one of Frieza's kind, this girl seems genuine in her words as she even put herself in the way of harm to protect Grimoire.
All the warriors of earth looked at each other with uncertainty, if this girl was willing to protect Grimoire then maybe this first demon was different from the ones they had met. Goku stood straight his eyes still on the woman as if he were seeing into her very soul, he didn't see the evil in her as he did in the soldiers who followed under the tyrant. The Saiyan gave a small smile as he exited the super Saiyan state "Guys relax we can trust them" as the words left his mouth many of his friends were surprised but albeit reluctantly they trusted their friend's judgment as they lost their fighting stances.
Caulli and Grimoire sighed in relief the first demon patting the girl on the head, she smacked his hand away with a little pout but was smiling "Thanks for standing up for me" he thanked his friend who smiled back rubbing the back of her head "No problem Grim we both look out for one another right" she replied gaining a nod from Grimoire.
"Indeed," he said before he looked up to the warriors in front of them, he walked up to them before he gave a bow "Thank you for deciding not to attack us" he thanked them. When he looked up at them they stared at him with shocked expressions "What?" he asked confused had he done something wrong?, Goku shook his head "No no it's just that I'm surprised to see one of Frieza kind being so nice" the Saiyan said making Grimoire flinch. He knew that his race had never had the best reputation which can be thanks to the tyrant Frieza, who painted such a horrid picture of their race.
"I assure that despite the actions of Frieza my race is not all twisted mad men" he said before standing up "If I may ask what was that power I just saw, the one used to kill Frieza?" he asked as Goku nodded with a small smile "It's a form called super Saiyan supposedly I'm the first one in a thousand years, or at least that's what a friend of mine says" he said as Grimoire and Cauli stared at him with wide eyes. "Your a Saiyan!" they both yelled out making the man almost fall back.
"Yes, Goku is one of the three Saiyans left, one being his son and another being Vegeta although his off-world at the moment" Piccolo stated as Grimoire looked at the namekian in surprise. Caulli suddenly leaped at Goku hugging him as she laughed happily "I'm not the last Saiyan left!" she yelled out making all the warriors of earth gasp in shock "She's a Saiyan to!" Yamcha called out in shock. The girl lets go off Goku beaming with joy "Yep, look I'll show you" she said before throwing off her cloak, a monkey tail with brown fur swung happily in the back from the girls lower back. She was wearing armor similar to Frieza soldiers however her shoulder pads were slightly higher with a blue orb in the middle of each one, a white leotard was covering her lower body with booths that reached her knees. She also had armguards on each arm with a long green gem in the middle. Her armor was a mix of white and hazel her skin being only slightly tanned.
Everyone stood in shock seeing the tail, the girl was a Saiyan they couldn't believe it, she then runs to Grimoire throwing off his cloak before the Frost demon could argue. He looked very different from Frieza, the first noticeable difference was his feet which were in a carapace armored cover making it look like normal feet. The armor around his arms had a gem on each side with a spike poking from the center, the same pattern with the armor on his lower legs. His lower half was covered with too large pauldrons on the side with one in the middle that reached his knees that had a large oval gem in it.
His torso was completely covered in white carapace armor save for his stomach, a large gem set right under his pecs. His shoulder had a simple carapace cover reaching his upper arm, hoop-like protrusions that circled around it with a single large spike jutting from the center. Lastly, his tail was armored at the end with three spikes in a straight line evenly spaced from each other.
The frost demon glared at Caulli not amused by her little stunt? "And what exactly was the point of that?" he questions her rasing one an eye "Come on Grim there no need to wear the cloaks so if I took of mine you had to take off yours" she replied innocently as Grimoire just sighed with slight irritation. "Wait just a minute how is she a Saiyan and how did you two end up as friends?!" Krillin yellowed out not believing that a first demon and a Saiyan being friends not killing each other. "Yes, we'd all like to hear that story as well" Piccolo as said curious about the unlikely pair before them.
Grimoire crossed his arms as well "well it is a bit of a story, but I would be happy to tell you if we could fly over to that friend of yours who could get us a ship" he said as Goku widened his eyes as he remembered what he said earlier "Sure but wow I can't believe that your another saiyan Caulli" he said with a laugh as he turned to his friends "Do you guys wanna come to Bulma's too?" he asked his friends to see if they wanted to head to capsule corp. "I'll have to pass I need to go back to Chiaotzu I don't want to leave him alone for too long, See ya guys later," Tien said as the triclops took off to check up on his friend.
"I have a game I need to participate in so I'll be heading off to, I'll catch with you guys later," Yamcha said as he headed off in a different direction from Tien. Krillin rubbed his head "I'll come I need to hear the story of how these two are friends" he said intrigued to learn about the two, "I want to hear this story to so I'll come along as well although once the story is down I'll take my leave" he said as Goku nodded to his friends. "Okay well then let's be off!" he said joyfully, however before they could all fly off a loud rumbling noise was heard from Caulli's stomach. The young Saiyan rubbing the back of her head with a blush of embarrassment "U-um could we get something to eat first?" she said guilty with a small smile, Grimoire facepalmed at his friend.
"You and your stomach are believed sometimes…" the frost demon muttered annoyed at his friend's inconvenient food call, he would never get used to it as long as he lived.
Goku nodded understanding a Saiyans appetite feeling a little hungry himself "Okay then we'll head to my place to eat since it's nearby by, I'll have Chi Chi prepare something for us" Goku replied to Caulli who smiled happily. Krillin then tapped his friend's shoulder "Goku are you sure it's a good idea for them to be seen by Chi Chi?" the monk asked his friend knowing what Chi Chi was like, even though she was a nice lady she wasn't exactly the calmest person. Goku waved a hand dismissing his friend's worries "Don't worry Krillin I'm sure Chi Chi we'll understand… I hope" the Saiyan said a bit hesitant towards the end. Piccolo gave a little huff "If she loses her temper your on your own Goku" he stated as Goku rubbed the back of his head laughing nervously.
Grimoire wasn't exactly sure who this Chi Chi was but he got ominous vibes from how the inhabitants of the earth were making her out to be. Another growl from Caulli's stomach, however, convinced him that he needed to go before his friend died of starvation, Caulli grabbed her stomach "Can we go there now, I'm so huuuuungry" she drew out with some discomfort in her voice. Everyone watching the Saiyan nodded, following Goku they all left the area flying away to the Son residence to get a meal for the hungry Saiyan. Little did any of them no the fury that would be unleashed upon Goku when he returned home.
