Chapter Two: The New Kid


Later that day, the eight boys were walking down the street. One by one, the boys returned to their homes. The blue hedgehog told the others that they were to meet up at nine o'clock the next day.

Meanwhile, a small, yellow, two-tailed fox was carrying a box when he saw the blonde haired boy and the blue hedgehog walking up the street.

"Remember, at nine o'clock." The hedgehog said to the blonde.

"Right!" The blonde boy said before turning a house.

The fox looked at the two friends as he held the box in his arms.

"I move to the neighborhood two weeks before school let out. It was the same summer that Dodger Yamcha would break the stolen bases record. So, with something that incredible going on, it should've started off with loads of great happening to me."

The fox looked on until the hedgehog looked at the fox's direction. The fox waved and the hedgehog waved back before he went to his house.

"But it didn't. I was from another state, and I didn't have a single friend in a thousand miles. It was a lousy way to end the fifth grade, 'cause I have zip time to make friends before summer. And that's about where it all started.


Later that night, the two-tailed fox was wearing blue pajamas and walking to his bedroom when he heard something.

"Krillin." The fox said as he looked at the door.

The fox cracked the door a little bit and looked inside and saw a little man putting up all sorts of baseball stuff.

"My real dad died when I was just a little kid. My mom had married Krillin about a year before we moved to the Valley. At the time, he and I were still getting used to each other."

"Um, Dad, I mean Krillin?"

"Yeah." The bald man said.

"Can you teach me how to play baseball?" The fox asked nervously.

Without looking, Krillin answered, "Sure."

"Thanks." The fox said, but the bald man was back to the baseball items.

The fox was about to leave the room, when an object caught his eye: a baseball with a name on it.

"Son Go? That's a strange name." The child thought to himself before leaving the room.

Unbeknownst to the fox, the name on the baseball was 'Son Goku.'
