It has been 8 years since Goku left the Tenkaichi Budokai to train with Uub. The world is experiencing an uncommon period of rest and peace, but a new threat is soon to destroy the peace and quite possibly, the universe...
Gohan punched a log, forcing his fist through it, and snapping it like a twig. He was ageing, 55 years old now, yet he still continued fighting. Goten copied the move with ultra precision, except the tree parts that flew off his practise shot forwards, rocketing further into the forest. They were stood in a clearing in a forest called Tian Tian which was supposed to mean Sky-Heaven forest. The reason it was called this was because it was on a floating piece of earth called Tian. It was perfect for training in a rush because there was higher gravity on it, which, because of its location under Kami's lookout, made it float peculiarly. Goten laughed and dashed after the logs as they barraged through the trees. He was 35, but still had his childish attitude. The logs rocketed off the island into mid air. He dived after one on the left and slammed it into pieces with his heel, using the force of the kick to propel himself towards the other. But before he could reach it, a yellow blast, shot through it, obliterating it. Son Gohan flipped forward and suspended himself in mid air, next to Goten. A timid looking young boy, wearing a familiar orange Gi floated towards them, with shy reluctance. Goten patted him on the head. It was Son Gozu, Goten's son. He whimpered slightly, looking down at the far below ground. Goten gripped him, smiling widely. Gohan grinned, and the both blasted off towards the ground, Gozu yelling at he speed.
They landed lightly, and Gozu calmed down and tensed his muscles. He was 8 Years old now, and a powerful fighter.
"Nice flight!?" teased Goten. Gohan laughed and Gozu sighed. He had got used to his father's attitude.
As the three gobbled down the rest of their dumplings as the sun set, a puff of smoke wobbled as a CAPSULE CORP. Flyer popped along the air towards them. It landed and an old man, followed by an anthromorpic pig.
"Kame-senin!" yeled Goten and Gohan in unison. He looked shocked, and Oolong, the pig, was rigid with fear.
"What's wrong, old man?" said Gozu, oblivious to him, he had only seen him a couple of times as a young.
"A great evil's coming!" he yelled, Oolong trembling. He three boys glared at them, faces serious.
"Who is it?" Gohan asked, a tine of anger in his voice.
"He says he's called Ukognos, and he destroyed half of West City! Weirdest thing is he looks like Son Goku and he's looking for you three!!"
"What!?" Goten yelled. The three nodded at each other and they blasted of, white auras forming and dancing around their bodies.
A man dressed in a grey Gi crackled with energy, his force blowing nearby rocks to pieces. His hair resembled Son Goku, but in reverse, and it was Grey hair, not black. This man's eyes were red, and bloodshot. He had pale skin, and a large scar across his face. He paced impatiently. Goten tapped his fet on the ground landing, shortly followed by Gohan and Gozu. Ukognos growled and threw a Ki blast at Goten, he easily sidestepped it, and Gohand fired 3 blasts back. They hit, but to zero effect.
"You kept me waiting" he snarled, trembling from anticipation.
"Why do you look like my father..." said Gohan, moving his fists into position.
"Ah, Goku... he was the one that set me free..." he replied, licking his lips. Goten cringed and dived at him, sending numerous hits his way.
"You bastard!! My dad would never do that!" he yelled, as Ukognos dodged the blows with relative ease. Gozu stepped forward, oddly confident and roundhoused kicked in mid-air. Ukognos stared strangely. A blast of force shot out of nowhere, being propelled by the kick. It hit, but it only left a
tiny scratch.
"That itched a little" replied Ukognos, smirking.
All three of the boys glared at him in disbelief.
