What Can I Say

A/N: Hello fellow fan fiction readers and writers. Welcome to What Can I Say! I've written stories before but disliked them greatly so I took them down and changed my penname. The title is the name of a song this story is somewhat similar to. If you're curious the band is called DEAD BY APRIL.

Onwards:

'Life's good!' thought a man as he walked through the woods. This man's name was Son Goku.

It was true, life was good. He had a loving wife and a 5 month old son whom he loved very much. His wife's cooking was out of this world amazing and his son was proving to have great potential for strength. Now he just had to find a way to get Chi-chi to let him train his son, Gohan.

This issue stumped him. He knew that Chi-chi was dead set on making Gohan a scholar and refused to allow him to train. But he was trying to convince of the benefits that came with training.

"If Gohan trains then he'll be able to defend himself easier." He had said, it was the only thing that caused Chi-chi to even stop yelling! But in only ten seconds she dismissed this and claimed there was nothing to hurt Gohan.

His thoughts were interrupted by a noise above him. Looking up Goku noticed a small oval shaped spaceship descending to the earth quickly. As the oval crashed into the earth not 15 yards away, Goku shielded his eyes from the dust and dirt that was thrown into the air.

As things settled on the ground, Goku unshielded his eyes and looked curiously at the small oval. He noticed there was a white, glass-like, cover on a length of the oval.

As he thought about what he should do the cover began to slide open to reveal an infant sitting in a seat. This in itself was strange, but what really caught Goku's attention was two small black fox tails with white tips swishing between the child's legs.

Throwing caution to the wind, Goku slid down the crater and approached the ship. When getting there he immediately noticed the child was just now waking up. The child had mostly black hair with a white cluster at the front.

The child shrank back at the sight of Goku and began to tear up.

"It's okay, I'm not gonna hurt you." He said softly with a wide, reassuring, smile. "My name's Goku." Goku extended his finger to the child and he slowly reached out and grabbed the extended finger and pulled.

Unexpectedly Goku lurched forward slightly from the pull. "You're a strong one huh!" he exclaimed enthusiastically. The child smiled at him and held out his arms. Catching on, Goku reached down and picked up the child. This is when he noticed the back of the ships chair was collapsible and, being the ever curious Goku, he opened it.

Inside there were some papers and two small cubical devices. Picking up one of the cubes, Goku accidentally pressed a button. The cube began speaking an odd language. Pressing the button again it stopped. Picking up the other cube and pressing the button, it began speaking English.

"Whoever finds this child, I ask that you please take care of him." Said a deep, but soft voice. "Abel is my only child and this planet is on the brink of destruction by a tyrant known as cooler. As you can see there are some papers and another cube in the compartment. I ask you give him the cube at ten to learn the language of our race and the papers at 16. They explain why we had to send him away in full detail. He is 5 months old your time so it will be awhile before you have to give these to him." The voice grew quieter, "just please take care of him." The light buzz of the cube stopped and Goku set it down.

He picked up the papers and notice that most were covered in odd squiggles and shapes. There were three stacks of paper. Each of the stacks of paper had one in English on top. He picked one up and it said; this is your home language Abel. Much like with the verbal language you'll understand it by reading it. The other English papers were similar but the second was about culture, and the third said mating.

"So your name's Abel huh?" Goku said to the baby. The baby's tails swished happily in response while the baby clapped and giggled. "Well you're gonna be staying with me and my family from now on."

'Chi-chi's gonna kill me!'

Well what'd ya think? It kicks into high school next chapter and most of the early years will be told through flashbacks. His arrival only caused some major changes and a few minor ones.

I'm probably gonna put out the next chapter today as well so look forward to that. R&R flames are ignored.

Readers of my two stories that were deleted might recognize this,

Ta ta for now…
