I'm changing this story. The prologue and first two chapters will be the same. The third chapter will be a summary of what happens in Dragon Ball. Then I'm skipping right to DBZ. So lets summarize. Tarble switches places with Goku. The Saiyans are evil, Frieza & Cooler are good guys. There OOCs and various other changes and twists. There are no OCs except Saiyan OCs. The summary chapter will be out soon, then the first DBZ chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own DBZ

Universe 9: Tarble Not Goku

Chapter 1

On Planet Vegeta, the king was waiting in his throne room for his eldest son to return from his mission. Sitting on his throne fuming, because once again his eldest son had used his advance strength to bully his little brother.

"Lord Vegeta. Your son is back from his mission." said a lowly soldier

"Send him in." he replied in angry tone, rising from his throne. Then Prince Vegeta walked in behind the lowly soldier, the usual scowl on his face.

"I have just returned, father. What is it you could possibly need?" he said with great disrespect in his voice.

The king walked up to him and slapped him across the face. "How dare you speak to me in that tone." he said standing over his son, who was now rubbing his cheek. "I've heard you have been hurting your little brother again. Is this true?"

"Yes, but it's only because he's weak and has to learn how defend himself." he answered in a defensive, but angry way.

"You are not his disciplinarian, that's my job. And if you want to teach him to be stronger do it properly, not act like a bully."

"But father, he is so infuriating. He can't take a simplest of directions without messing something up."

"Then stop trying to teach him. We have proper ways to train."

"Good, send him to a remote planet. That way when he comes of age he can take over the planet."

The king pondered his son's suggestion. "Fine. That's what I'll do. Now get out of my sight."The king shouted. Prince Vegeta walked out in a huff. "You, soldier, bring Tarble in here."

"Y-yes sir." he replied a little intimidated. The king paced back and fourth impatiently waiting for the guard to return with his younger son. The king was nervous about sending Tarble away because of the way he is. Tarble is different from his brother and other Saiyan children. He didn't like fighting or confrontation. He was weak and just a happy person. "I have brought Prince Tarble, my lord."

"Good, you are dismissed." he said to the soldier.

"Hello father. How was your day?" Tarble asked with a big smile

The king gave him a fake smile and knelt down. "Tarble, I was talking to your brother about your strength and I've decided you need to get stronger. You will be sent to another planet. That way you can become strong like your brother."

"B-but I don't wanna leave." he said trying not to cry.

"I'm sorry, but you have to learn how to fend for yourself. Learn to be a great fighter."

"I don't wanna be a fighter then. I'll do something else instead."

"No you will not. You are a Saiyan and your gonna start acting like one." the king said standing up. He walked over to his throne and pressed a button. " Get a ship ready for Tarble." he said into a receiver.

"What is the destination, sir?" it said back.

"Pick a planet we haven't conquered." there was a short wait. "Damn it, I hate the music they play when I'm on hold."

"Sir, what about Earth?"

"That's fine. Have the ship ready in two hours." he said and walked away from his throne. "Come on, Tarble. You have to get ready." Tarble reluctantly followed, biting his lower lip to keep from crying.

Two Hours Later

"Father, why do I have to wear this?" he asked. All he was wearing were Saiyan armor pants.

"Because, this way when you land the inhabitants won't know what planet your from. Then when they least expect it you can take them by surprise." he answered confidently. Tarble just nodded his head and stepped into the pod. " Now, you are going to go into a hibernated sleep. Once the ship reaches its destination you will wake up. Then push this button to exit."

"Okay Father. Where is big brother?" he asked looking around.

"He said he didn't want to come see you off."

"Oh. One more question, what is Earth like?"

"I don't know. It doesn't belong to the Saiyans yet. But it will, once you get there and get stronger. Now goodbye son. I'll see you in a few years."

King Vegeta closed the hatch to Tarble's ship and walked to the control panel. He nodded to the soldier working it. The soldier pushed some buttons and the ship blasted off into space. The king watched as it went out of sight, still wondering if this was the right idea.

One Year Later On Earth

An elderly man was walking through the woods to get to his house. Then he saw what looked like a meteor, fly right above him and crash into the side of a mountain. He walked quickly to where he saw the smoke rising. He made it there in a matter of minutes. There he saw, in the crater, a spherical object, with what looked like an open door. He then saw a little boy climbing out of the crater.

"My goodness son, are you okay?" he asked walking up to the boy

"I think so. But, where am I?" he asked rubbing his head.

"Your on Mt. Paozu."

"You mean I'm not on Earth, because that's where I'm suppose to be?" Tarble said starting to panic

"Hoho, of course your on Earth. Mt. Paozu is part of Earth."

Oh good, thank you mister."

"Your welcome, young man. So what's your name?"

"I'm Tarble. I'm a prince and I was sent to Earth to learn to fight."

"Oh really. Well I'm Gohan and I could teach you a little bit about fighting."

"Really that's great. Thank you, Gohan." he said with a smile. Then his stomach made a loud grumbling sound.

"Well, it sounds like your hungry. Lets go back to my house and eat." Gohan suggested. Tarble smiled and nodded his head. Then they made their way to the house and ate a lot.
