Dragon Ball Z: I'm Just Saiyan...

Dragonball Z

Chapter 1

The Paradox

Goku and Vegeta had just finished their horrendous sparring session. Both fighters had cuts and bruises within every square inch of their body. Both were panting heavily and each breath burned their throats.

Goku laughed, enjoyment evident on his face. "Man, Vegeta! You almost got me with that last move! Haha."

"I could say the same to you, Kakarot.", Vegeta responded. Goku and Vegeta stood up after a few more breaths, and realized that they were done for today.

"Well, Vegeta, I'm going home, see ya tomorrow!", Goku said cheerfully, looking forward to the next sparring session, but looking forward even more to Chi-Chi's cooking. Vegeta nodded with a grunt, and flew his way towards home, where his wife could order him up some food.

At Capsule Corp, Bulma Briefs was busy tinkering with a boxed shape machine, her upper body hidden as she tirelessly worked under the base of the machine. Vegeta had chosen that moment to wal inside and admire her form as she worked.

"Woman, what are you working on?", Vegeta asked nonchalantly.

Bulma decided to ignore his comment about no saying his name, like she usually did in the house and continued working.

"If you must know, I'm working on a displacement machine. This will allow an individual to deliver an item to a specified spot, like a transporter.", she replied, still under the machine.

"Hmm, sounds pretty useless, if you ask me.", Vegeta said, walking back up the stairs.

"That's pretty funny, considering the fact that you loaf around the house, when you're not trying to blow up something.", Bulma shot back. Vegeta snickered, walking towards the shower.

Using Instant Transmission, Goku was back at the house in an instant, ready to eat some delicious food from his loving wife. Once he walked in the dining room, he noticed the object of his desire...

"Awesome! Roast Beef and Chicken!", Goku shouted childishly, reaching for the food, abandoning any known table manners. Before he could reach it though...

"Goku!", yelled a feminine voice, from across the room. Goku looked at that direction. "Huh?"

"You're not eating any food, until you've cleaned up mister! And you better make it snappy!", Chi-Chi said, slightly annoyed at having to remind Goku everyday.

"Awww, but Chi-Chi, the food looks really tasty!", Goku complained. Chi-Chi's mood lightened up just a bit before she had to remember who she was talking to.

"Be that as it may, you need to clean up first. Only Dende knows that once you start eating, it'll be a while before you stop.", Chi-Chi said, stirring the Iced Tea that she had in a large pitcher, on the kitchen counter. Goku nodded before making his way to the bathroom. After he finished, he felt completely refreshed. Feeling so hungry, he decided to Instant Transmission to the Kitchen.

Gohan, who just came from Orange Star high school, was placing his books on the living room desk, when he heard Goten running down the stairs.

"Hey Gohan, hey dad!", he exclaimed gleefully. He ran down the stairs and sat at his seat on the dinner table. Gohan took off his back and walked over to the kitchen sink to wash his hands. He hugged his mom, saying his greeting and sat at the table. "How's it goin, dad?", he asked before grabbing his cup to pour the tea that was now on the table.

"Oh, hey Gohan, just came from another sparring match with Vegeta, and let me tell ya, he almost had me today! We ended up in a draw!", Goku explained before helping Chi-Chi set the dishes.

"That's so cool!", Goten said excitedly. The family laughed a bit before they began to eat.

"So Gohan, how was your day at school.", Chi-Chi asked. She was very proud of her son, who was now 19, a Junior in high-school. After the whole thing with Majin Buu, Gohan had matured quite alot. He still wasn't mature enough to grow out of the saiyaman costume, she thought, laughing inwardly.

"It went pretty well, we learned alot more about the mechanics of the inside of a capsule..."

Vegeta sat on the sofa with Bulma snuggled next to him. They were enjoying the Gourmet Pizza that was ordered to the house. Trunks was at a friend's house, so they were alone together watching a movie. Actually, Vegeta was enjoying the pizza more than Bulma, as he had his own 4 large personal pan pizzas.

"So, why did you start working on another project?", Vegeta asked, slightly curious.

"Actually, the only reason I made it was because I was kind of bored, I couldn't think of anything else to do, so I just decided to make one. It still has a few kinks I need to work out though.", Bulma said, reaching for her second slice of Pizza. Vegeta merely grunted, not trying to sound too interested, even though Bulma already knew.

Vegeta grabbed his super gulp of orange juice, and downed it in a few swallows. "I'm going to the gravity room for a bit.", Vegeta announced, before walking towards the back door. He had enjoyed his quality time with his wife, but he couldn't get too soft.

The sun had just risen, signifying it was a new day. Goku had risen up early, which was a first, and told Chi-Chi that he was going to help Bulma with a new invention of hers. Goku gave Chi-Chi a small kiss before using Instant Transmission to appear at the doorstep of Capsule Corp.

Knocking on the door, Vegeta answered.

"What do you want, Kakarot?", Vegeta asked in his seemingly annoyed tone. Anyone who didn't know Vegeta would probably think he was angry, but Goku knew that was just how he is.

"Hey Vegeta! Bulma needed my help with an invention of hers, so here I am!", Goku said with a smile. Vegeta grunted and let him in. Walking to the lab, he knocked on the door. "Hey Bulma, I'm here!"

Vegeta had came to the lab also, Bulma needing his assistance too. "Oh, hey Goku! Glad you could make it!", she said, putting down her chalk. She was just writing on a chalk-board that was about the size of one of the walls. It had some long complicated mathematical formula that would make Goku's brain implode if he stared too long at it.

"I need you and Vegeta to keep a constant energy blast charge on those two power cells at the front of the machine.", Bulma said pointing at it. Goku and Vegeta did as she asked.

"Now, Just stay like that for 15 seconds, and then you can stop, that will charge the machine completely.", Bulma continued, working on the blue prints to the machine. Unfortunately, Goku's stomach started growling. 'Oh man, I need some food.', Goku thought to himself. He really did too, he had skipped on breakfast by accident in his rush to get to the lab!

"Hey Vegeta, got any food on ya?", Goku asked, his stomach rumbling again in agreement to his statement. Vegeta sweat-dropped.

"Can't you wait just 7 more seconds?", Vegeta asked irritably. Goku shook his head no, causing Vegeta to sigh angrily. "Good grief, you are hopeless, just wait a secon-", before he could finish his sentence, Goku was already walking down the stairs with a sandwich in his hand!

"Kakarot, you retard! You weren't supposed to leave the machine-", before he could finish his sentence, again, a flash of light caused the two to dissapear from their spots. Bulma turned around, noticing a small flash. "Guys?", she asked. She looked at the machine, noticing it was fully charged.

"They probably went sparring or something.", she said to herself, shrugging it off.

Vegeta felt like he was being thrown out of a car, after it hits something. He cursed Goku's stupidity. They were flying through some portal, any perception of space, not visible anywhere in through the pathway.

Goku was next to him, his face showing confusion. Vegeta smacked the back of his head.

"Ow! What I do?", Goku asked innocently.

"What did you do? You did something to the fabric of space and time, all because of you damned stomach! That's why!", Vegeta yelled back, crossing his arms. Whatever was going on now, they would have to see what happens. Nothing much they could do now.

As quickly as it happened, they were being spit out of the portal, it dissapearing instantly, as they fell earthward. Vegeta manage to land on his feet, that is until Goku dropped down and crashed on top of him.

"G-GET OFF OF ME!", Vegeta yelled, pushing him off of him. He was breathing heavily. 'Damn, he's heavy', thought Vegeta. He looked around his surroundings not recognizing anything until he looked off into the distance. There was a large castle, banners and flags draping the walls. There in the center was the symbol of saiyan royalty. The castle looked as large as he remembered it. Scanning the horizon, he saw the light red sky, the two suns...

"It can't be...", Vegeta said aloud. Goku rubbed the back of his head, standing up. "What is it, Vegeta?", Goku asked curiously, not really recognising his surroundings. It did however, feel as though he should know what this place is.

"This is...This is planet Vegeta!", Vegeta exclaimed. Goku's eyes widened, not believing what he just heard.

"What! No way! I thought the planet was destroyed!", Goku asked, incredulous.

"I don't know how, but this is it!", Vegeta said, his eyes wide, and looking every which way.

A/N: This is chapter 1. I need suggestions on what the next chapter should be about. At some point they will meet their fathers, and maybe their mothers. I need many reviews. That's the only thing that will keep this story going. If I don't get reviews, it will seem like not many people are reading it.
