Goku POV

Okay, this is it, I have to beat Picon! I kept thinking to myself, of course I wasn't stressed out about this, this is fantastic. Picon is a worthy opponent and he grows stronger by the second, and that makes it interesting.

I stretched my fingers, preparing for the fight "Goku!" King Kay shouted at me "yeah?" I asked, looking to him with an innocent, confused look upon my face. "Are you even listening to me!" He shouted…o that's right, he was talking to me, ha ha, guess I got lost in thought. "O sorry King Kay, I was ju-" I said, but a strange, but very familiar sound interrupted "Hey, is here food somewhere? I'm hungry." I said, rubbing the back of my neck with one hand and my tummy with the other, a big, innocent smile on my face. I glanced at King Kay and saw his plain, shocked expression "Uh, King Kay?" I asked, dropping my hands. "HOW CAN YOU THINK OF FOOD RIGHT NOW, YOU JUST ATE 10 MINUTES AGO!" He snapped and kept scowling at me, but he lost me once my tummy rumbled once again. "I'm hungry King Kay." I interrupted and he just froze, next thing I knew, he fell over "Guess the heat is too much for him." I shrugged and the smell of pasta hit my nose "Food!" I exclaimed, and hurried, following the smell till I found myself at a table and digging in.

"Ha ha, good luck fighting on a full stomach." South Kay laughed. "Huh?" I asked, looking up with my mouth full.

"Eh…" South Kay flinched slightly, boy, he must hate pasta. "I have a new student, his quite strong…you don't stand a chance." South Kay said, and my head snapped up, and I swallowed my pasta hard, curious and very much interested. But, as soon as South Kay was done speaking, King Kay was on his feet, shouting at South Kay "You can't possibly have someone stronger than my Goku!" He shouted. "Well I do! You just wait and see, your boy doesn't stand a chance!" Shout Kay shouted back. "Goku is the strongest fighter in this universe!" King Kay shouted back "O yeah, not for long! I'll even bet on it!" South shouted "Well…me, uh…to!" King Kay shouted back.

To be honest, I didn't have a clue what those two were arguing about, I just scratched my head, thinking about this new fighter…who can he be? "Then let's bet…I get your car if my guy wins, and you can have my…my…" South began and got stuck in thought while he was thinking of stuff he'll be willing to give away. "MY CAR!" King Kay exclaimed in horror "Yeah, or are you to chicken!" South replied "I'm not a chicken…fine! But then I want your flying carpet!" King Kay said. "My flying carpe-" South began "Who's the chicken now!" King Kay interrupted "No…uh, fine! My carpet, your car!" South said, and held his hand out to shake on it. "Deal" King Kay agreed and shook his hand "Deal" South replied.

They dropped hands "You're going down Kay." South smirked and walked off laughing. "Grrr, you're the one who's going down South!" King Kay shouted after him in rage and turned to me, grabbing me by my hair, pulling me to his level "Ow King Kay!" I shouted out "You better not loose Goku! Now stop eating and go win this thing!" He shouted and started shoving me towards the ring. "Okay, okay…will you stop shoving me." I said while he pushed me "yes!" He said loudly as he gave me one final shove onto the stage.

"NOW KICK SOME ASS GOKU!" King Kay shouted, pumping his fist in the air. "I'll try my best." I said and looked in front of me with a smile on my face "This is going to be interesting." I told myself. If South Kay was so sure of his new student that'll he'll bet his flying carpet on him, this must be someone really strong.

"Alright everybody! Let's get this show on the road! In the first round we have Goku from the north!" They pronounced and the crowd cheered "And…o, looks like we have someone new this year. Alright everybody, give it up for, uh." He started and looked at his cards to read the name "Bardock! From the South!" He pronounced and the crowd started cheering.

"Wait who!" I shouted in shock, that name…can it be? No, no, must be someone with the same name. I waited eagerly to see who this was, how he looked. As the crowd cheered, I could see someone heading towards the stage coming from the locker rooms. The tunnel was dark so I couldn't make out how the he looked until he comes out into the light.

I'm sure the look on my face was one of horror…what if it is, it can't be, it's not possible. Suddenly as he came closer, the cheering of the crowd fainted, King Kay's voice was a blur, all my ears were focusing on was the sound of his footsteps…Bardock's.

He stepped into the light, his face not showing yet…but when he took one more step, the step that revealed him. He jumped of shock when he saw me, and so did I, it was him…it was my father.

Okay, so I know this chapter is a bit short, but it's more like a teaser. I already have the next chapter written, and it's longer, I promise, ha ha. Plus I'm hoping I'll get a few reviews and fans of this story before I publish it. My grammar and spelling might not be that good, the names and stuff of DBZ is a bit hard to spell, he he. And English isn't my first language, but I'm working on it, and don't be afraid to review and tell me where I went wrong, so I can start improving. XD

Thanx again for reading, I hope you want more, he he. :D

PLEASE REVIEW.
