Chapter 2: Death
"Why hello nephew, and no I haven't laid a hand on the woman. I was actually-" Raditz was cut off with a heavy punch to the gut. He groans in pain as Gohan walked passed him to Chi-chi. Bardock was the only one looking amused while the woman shook her head. "Damn it boy. I didn't come to fight."
Gohan ignored Raditz as he spoke with Chi-chi. She tried to assure her eldest son that everything was fine, and that no harm was done. Piccolo was now holding Raditz by the hair and demand he speaks or be sent back to hell.
"For goodness sake did I mess up that bad. I been dead for almost 20 years, I have changed green man. I was honor a request to make up for my wrong doing, so here I am." Krillin was the one who noticed Bardock and asked who he was.
"I'm Bardock Kakarrot's father, and this pain in the ass is Gine his mother." Everyone but Chi-chi and Gotan were in shocked. "Before anyone ask we been dead for almost 29 years. That old man warned us you might ask."
"Wait old man? Was this old man's name Gohan?" Chi-chi was just too curious to know. She was answered with a head nod. "So how is grandpa Gohan?" Bardock just shrugged and stated that the old man both hated him and honored him, whatever that means. That's when the ground shook violently. "What in the world?" Everyone rushed outside to see Gohan and Raditz going at each other.
…
"There is no way I'll believe you changed!"
"But it's the truth! For Kama sake nephew! Why don't you believe me?!"
"Because you're the damn reason everything changed! We were happy before you showed up!"
"What if I didn't? How long would it had been before trouble followed Kakarrot? When do you think he would find out the truth? Do you actually believe I'm a damn curse or something?!"
That's when Gohan stopped and looked down at the ground. "You're the reason my dad died for the first time and it pains me to know I couldn't save him. Yet I am somewhat grateful you showed up. Probably not in the best way, but showed up." Now Raditz was in shocked that someone was actually grateful of him.
….
Gine was now sobbing in Bardock's chest. Today was unusual for all of them but it seems like Gine was being more sensitive than most. They all sat down for dinnier, even Piccolo and Krillin; they didn't believe that Raditz changed yet. As dinner went on Bardock and Gine revealed how the first two years of death they were in purgatory and then they met the strange old man Gohan. They learned how Kakarrot was alive and doing well and how it felt like a heavy weight was taken off their shoulders. Shortly after the meeting they were sent to hell, Gine didn't want to go to heaven without him.
One day when Raditz showed up they were both extremely angry yet so proud he lived for so long. When they find out about Kakarrot being dead too Gine passed out and he went to hopefully meet up with his youngest son at the gates. Yet he was too late when he found out that Kakarrot already left for snake way. So it was decided that they would be reunion when Kakarrot officially died. Gine wasn't too happy with the news. So we made a deal to prove we changed to get a chance to meet Kakarrot while he's still alive.
That's when everyone became speechless. Chi-chi was now the one to tell Bardock and Gine everything that Goku has gone through up until now. They were extremely pleased at all the exciting adventures and enemies their son faced. They even commented how he was a true saiyan without realizing it. Everyone laughed joyously till a knock was heard at the door.
When Krillin answered the door he was met with Bulma and another figure who looked like Vegeta. "It seems I'm not the only one who got dead family members visiting." Everyone laughed as Bulma and the male stepped into the living room.
