Planet Sadala, six months after the Tournament of Power
Caulifla was waiting for Vados in her room and was ready to leave to train with Goku. She was still in her Super Saiyan 2 form and she completely perfected it. It was like her base form.
'Where is she? We should've left hours ago.' thought Caulifla as she was sitting on her bag.
Someone knocked on the door. Caulifla got up and opened it, Kale was standing there.
"Sis. Are you sure you want to leave? What about your gang?" asked Kale.
"You're the leader now. We spent the last six months with your training and you've become way stronger than I expected. This gang is in good hands." said Caulifla and she smiled.
"Thank you Sis. When will you come back?" asked Kale.
"As soon as Goku teaches me how to turn Super Saiyan 3 AND Super Saiyan Blue. He's better ready for me or he's gonna have problems." said Caulifla.
"Do you miss him?" asked Kale.
"Don't be ridiculous Kale! That was…you know…only temporary. I just wanna train and he's the strongest fighter I know." She blushed but continued "Speaking of…what's up with Cabba? Did Vegeta arrive?" asked Caulifla.
"Yes. About five months ago. They've been training since then." answered Kale.
"What?! This means he's ahead of me. He can't reach Super Saiyan 3 before me!" shouted Caulifla.
Vados appeared in the room.
"Finally. Where have you been? It's not like I'm in hurry or something…" said Caulifla.
"You know I'm not intergalactic taxi, right?" said Vados.
"Yeah, yeah just let's go already." said Caulifla.
Kale hugged Caulifla and said goodbye. In the last six months Kale learned how to control her Ki and she became really strong. She became the leader and the members respected her power however she knew she was weaker than her sister.
"Shall we go? I don't like waiting." said Vados mockingly.
Planet Earth
Goku was in his Super Saiyan Blue form with Kaio Ken 20x. He perfected this form so it drained much less stamina. However Ultra Instinct was still too much for him. Whis couldn't train him because he was training with Beerus but he promised that sooner or later he was going to help him mastering Ultra Instinct. Goku was living in the Bamboo Forest in an old house where he grew up.
'Who should I train with? Vegeta is on Planet Sadala, Gohan and Piccolo are busy with Gohan's family. Krilin gave up martial arts again and King Kai doesn't really wanna see me.' thought Goku.
"HOW ABOUT YOU SEARCH FOR THE DARGON BALLS AND GIVE ME BACK MY LIFE?!" shouted King Kai and Goku scared so much that he fall back on his chair.
"How about you don't scream so suddenly? It's really scary you know?" said Goku as he was standing up.
"Oh I'm soo sorry. Goku! Dragon Balls! NOW!" said King Kai angrily.
"All right, all right just stop screaming for Kami's sake. I go to Bulma to get the Dragon Radar and then I'll wish your life back. Three days at top." said Goku.
"You better keep your word this time Goku!" said King Kai.
"Why are so angry? It's not like you're running out of time." said Goku with a huge smile.
"Goku. Dragon. Balls." said King Kai.
Somewhere in between Universe 6 and Universe 7.
"So Vados…do know anything about Goku that I should know?" asked Caulifla.
"Why are you asking? Do you like him?" asked Vados mockingly.
"No, of course not…" blushed Caulifla "…I'm just curious. What about his father, his mother? Does he have brothers or sisters. You know just the basics."
"I don't know but let's see my staff. Ahh, there it is. It seems like his parents died when the planet of the Saiyans of Universe 7, Planet Vegeta, was destroyed. He has…or had an older brother who died when he tried to kidnap Gohan." said Vados.
"So no family reunions I guess. How come Goku wasn't on Planet Vegeta when it was destroyed?" asked Caulifla.
"His father, Bardock, knew something was off so he launched a space pod toward Planet Earth. He chose this location because Goku's power level was too low. After he arrived an earthling found him and raised him. Goku lost his memories when he was a child and fell off of a cliff and hit his head. That's why he didn't remember his Saiyan 'mission'." answered Vados.
"Wow. What about his wife?" asked Caulifla innocently.
"Let's see. She left him. It seems like she had enough of the fights. Goku was never around and he cared more about the fights than about his family. At least that's how she felt." said Vados.
"You can't expect anything else from a weak earthling. She is an idiot who can't understand Saiyans." said Caulifla angrily.
"Such a luck that you're a Saiyan as well and you can understand Goku. Ohohohohoho!" laughed Vados.
"That's NOT what I meant!" shouted Caulifla as she blushed.
Planet Earth
"Thank you Bulma! I'll bring back the radar in one piece." said Goku as he was leaving.
"Goku wait! Do you know anything about Vegeta? He's gone for five months and I don't know how to reach him." said Bulma.
"You should ask for help from Whis." said Goku.
"I've been trying but he said he's busy with Beerus. I'll beat the crap out both of them if I see them again." said Bulma angrily.
"I know you're serious. Anyway I have to go because King Kai wants his life back. Goodbye Bulma." said Goku and he left.
Goku went back to his house because he was hungry. Suddenly a huge blinding ray appeared in front of his house. When the ray and smoke cleared Vados and Caulifla were standing there.
"What are you guys doing here?" asked Goku with a smile.
"Do you have amnesia? You have to train me. You promised." said Caulifla.
"Really? I don't remember at all but I'm glad you're here. I don't have any sparring partner." said Goku sadly.
"It seems like you guys don't need me here." said Vados and she left.
"So Goku. I mastered Super Saiyan 2. Now teach me how to to reach Super Saiyan 3. Like…right now!" said Caulifla and she powered up.
"Relax Cauli. I have to find the Dragon Balls or I'm gonna have troubles." said Goku.
"Why? You won't keep me hanging!" shouted Caulifla.
"I have to bring King Kai back…" answered Goku.
"He's dead right? What's another few months for him?!" said Caulifla mockingly.
"Yeah, you're right. Now let's see how much you've improved. Let's do a little sparring." said Goku and he went Super Saiyan 2.
The two Saiyans clashed and they were even. Goku tried with an upper cut but Caulifla easily dodged and she fired a powerful Ki blast toward Goku. Goku blocked it and launched a Kamehameha which hit Caulifla but when the smoke cleared she was standing there unscratched.
"Okay, that's enough." said Goku.
"What? We just started." said Caulifla angrily.
"I just wanted to see what you're capable of. I'll train you but not here." said Goku and he smirked.
"Now that's what I love to hear. Where are we going?" asked Caulifla.
"Grab my Ki and you'll see." said Goku and he put two fingers on his forehead.
Mr. Popo felt Goku's and a stranger's Ki behind him.
"Yo, Mr. Popo. Can we use the Time Chamber?" asked Goku.
"In one condition. If you don't blow it up. Your Saiyan buddy, Vegeta, blew it up and it took five months to repair it. By the way he can't use it. EVER!" said Mr. Popo.
"Thank you Mr. Popo. I promise we'll be careful." said Goku and he bowed.
As they were walking toward the door Goku stopped and was looking at Caulifla.
"What are you looking at, old man? Do you have a problem?" asked Caulifla.
"Yes. Your clothes." said Goku slowly.
"Excuse me? My clothes?" asked Caulifla and she was starting to lose her patience.
"Wait here." said Goku and he disappeared.
'Yep. I'm gonna kill him. Slowly. Definitely slowly' thought Caulifla.
A few seconds later Goku appeared in front of her with two bags in his hands.
"So what are those?" asked Caulifla.
"Clothes. We'll need these kind of clothes in the Time Chamber. They're based on Saiyan armors. They're heavy but very resistant." answered Goku.
"Fine. I'll play along as long as you train me." said Caulifla.
When they entered the Time Chamber Caulifla saw nothing. The temperature were hot and the room barely had air. Caulifla's breathing was heavy and she was sweating although they entered the room a minute ago.
"So besides the unusual weather what's so special in this room? There must be something otherwise you wouldn't bring me here." asked Caulfila as she was getting used to the temperature.
"Oh yes. One year here is one day on the outside." said Goku.
"What? Does this mean we can train for years in here for exchange days on the outside?! This is incredible!" said Caulifla amazed.
Goku put on his training gear and was watching Caulifla
'She's so perfect.' thought Goku.
"Hey old man! Stop being a creep and turn away!" shouted Caulifla and she blushed.
Goku turned away but he couldn't stop thinking of her and when she put on the training gear she became more beautiful. The gear was perfect on her and it showed her perfect body as well. Caulifla was thinking the same when she looked at Goku. The gear showed how muscular he really was. Goku shook his head.
"So let's fight. We don't have to hold back." said Goku and he went Super Saiyan 2.
The fight was intense as both Saiyan gave their best. Despite the trainings in the last six months Caulifla was still weaker than Goku and she wasn't behind him much. After two hours of intense fight they both collapsed.
"How?! How can you be still stronger than me? I've been training non-stop for six months." said Caulifla angrily.
"Why are you upset? We're almost even in Super Saiyan 2. That's quite impressive if you ask me." said Goku.
Caulifla blushed.
"But still. You can go Super Saiyan 3 and Super Saiyan Blue. Oh and don't forget Ultra Instinct." said Caulifla.
"You'll be able to as well. Just be patient. We've been here for two or three hours and we have three years." said Goku.
"Yeah, you're right. Okay that said, let's eat. I'm starving." said Caulifla as she was sitting up.
"I think you're reading my mind" laughed Goku.
As they were sitting at the table Caulifla was thinking about Goku. She couldn't help but all she could think about was Goku. How he was basically the perfect definition of males. In Universe 6 Saiyan males were weak and they were more like Earthlings but Goku was everything she was looking for in a man. He was strong, he was tall, he was funny. Of course he was a little slow and goofy but this wasn't a problem for her because he knew when to be serious.
"So Goku, I know you have a son but in your house I didn't meet with your wife." said Caulifla.
"Well actually I have two sons and a granddaughter," Caulifla almost choked on her rice but Goku continued "and my wife left me. She felt like I care more about fights than my family."
"You weren't around much, were you?" asked Caulifla.
"No, I wasn't. I think the fact that I died twice didn't help at all." said Goku as he grabbed a glass full of water.
"Died?! Twice?! I thought you're like the strongest in this universe." said Caulifla mockingly but shocked at the same time.
"No one killed me really." Said Goku.
"Yeah, sure. Then how did you die? You ate too much or what?" asked Caulifla mockingly.
"Well I first died when Piccolo and I were fighting Raditz. He was too strong for the two of us so I clinched him from behind and Piccolo fired his special attack which went through Raditz and me." remembered Goku.
"Okay, that's pretty heroic. And the second time?" asked Caulifla.
"Gohan was fighting Cell. He turned Super Saiyan 2 and totally overwhelmed Cell so he was toying with the android. Cell had enough and he wanted to destroy himself along with Earth. I used Instant Transmission and took him to King Kai's planet." said Goku.
"That's badass. So this is why your wife left you?" asked Caulifla.
"Yes. And because I was dead for seven years. I didn't want them to bring me back because I wanted to be stronger to protect this planet and my family." said Goku.
"Well this was really selfish to be honest. But I can understand." said Caulifla and she smiled at Goku.
"Enough about me. I wanna know you better." said Goku.
"Me? There's really not much. My parents died when I was really young. A local gang killed them while they were protecting us. My brother and me were alone but we went through this phase very differently. He joined that stupid special force to stop gangs and violence while I created a gang." said Caulifla.
"A gang? It's interesting giving that your parents were killed by a gang." noticed Goku.
"We wiped out those idiots way sooner than the special force. I found the exact persons who raided our house and I killed them. Slowly. Now we run the planet however we don't kill innocents. Of course those idiots in uniforms think we're the bad guys but they yet to find a person who could be a challenge for us. But that's enough for today. Let's go back training!" said Caulifla and she stood up.
They went out and powered up to their maximum but Caulifla didn't attack she was just starring at Goku.
"Is there something wrong?" asked Goku.
"Yes. You're holding back. I can't reach beyond my limits if I fight someone who isn't stronger than me. Turn Super Saiyan 3!" ordered Caulifla.
"I don't think that's a good idea but as you wish." answered Goku and he went Super Saiyan 3.
Caulifla launched her attack but Goku easily dodged.
"Too slow!" said Goku and he knelt her in the stomach which made Caulifla back up.
"Crush Cannon!" shouted Caulifla as she fired her most powerful Ki attack. Goku blocked it with one hand and launched his counterattack. The Saiyan girl blocked a few punches but most of the hits and kicks were clear and a few moments later she couldn't block a single attack. As she was laying on the ground Goku powered down and ran to Caulifla.
"Hey, you okay? I told you it wasn't a good idea." said Goku softly.
"Just shut up and give me a second. I get up and I beat the living soul out of you." answered Caulifla angrily.
She did get up and started to power up but she collapsed. Goku took her in his arms and put her in bed.
"Don't think you won. Just a second and I'll be on my feet!" said Caulifla and she passed out.
As Goku was watching her he realized that she has the same spirit as he has. May be that's why he liked her. Caulifla went back to her base form and she was sleeping peacefully so Goku decided to let her rest. It was a long day for her. It was a long day for both of them.
The next morning when Caulifla woke up Goku was already up and he was training hard.
"Hey Old Man! How long have I been sleeping? And more importantly why didn't you wake me up?!" asked Caulifla and she was really pissed off.
"I let you rest. You'll need every bit of you energy because today I teach you how to reach Super Saiyan 3." said Goku and he smiled.
"Finally! I take a shower and then we can begin!" said Caulifla.
When she came back she was standing in front of Goku.
"Now listen very carefully! Super Saiyan 3 has a huge amount of energy and power BUT it drains very much stamina. You'll be able to remain in that form for three minutes at top right now. But this doesn't mean you can't master it. However I don't recommend using this form too much. Use this as a last result or when you must finish a fight very quickly. Do you understand?" asked Goku and he was serious. Caulifla never saw him this serious.
"Yes!" answered Caulifla.
"Good. First you go Super Saiyan 2. Then you look deep inside you. Deeper than ever. You have to find the persons or things that motivate you, grab them and let them give you power. That's how you turn Super Saiyan 3." said Goku.
Caulifla nodded her head and went Super Saiyan 2. She closed her eyes and imagined her life. Her parents as they died, her brother who left him, Kale who gave power to her but she still wasn't there. She needed one more thing, one more push. Than she thought about Goku. Her love toward him. She shouted one last time and she turned Super Saiyan 3. As she observed her new power she realized that Goku weren't kidding at all. She just turned but she felt like she ran thousands of miles and a few seconds later she knelt down and went back to her base form.
"You did it Cauli! I'm so proud of you!" said Goku with a huge smile on his face.
From the happiness Caulifla didn't think she just got up, ran to Goku, hugged him than kissed him and he didn't resist at all.
Deep Space, Universe 7
"My lady! We found the last person we were looking for. This means your special force has nine members. What is your order?" asked the lieutenant
"I will be there in a moment to speak with them. Prepare them." said the Lady.
"Yes, ma'am! As you wish" said the lieutenant than he bowed.
"I'm coming for you Goku! And you will be surprised what I will bring with me." said the Lady quietly.
In the next room there were eight fighters with black eyes and with black, spiky hairs. All of them had a tail around their wrist. These people were Saiyans, eight Saiyans who survived the destruction of Planet Vegeta. In the middle of the room a huge ice cube was standing and a person was inside. The Lady walked up to this cube.
"It's time to come back to life…Super Saiyan God!"
