A life without Chi Chi
Chapter Ten: Brothers unite!
Goku took a good look around at where he was, he noticed the massive long queue of little white cloud like things. "So this is death then huh?" Goku said to himself. Before he knew it he had gotten to the front and was now face to face with a huge red ogre. He seemed to be going over Gokus life history. "Woow who are you?" Goku asked. Kami was standing with him but told Goku to be quite. The huge red ogre looked at Goku. "Why I am king Yamma my boy, I am the judge of souls." Kami smiled. "Umm king Yamma so like I was saying, I would like to have Goku sent to train with king Kai." King Yamma looked at Kami and frowned. "I know that you already said that." Kami bowed. "Yeah of course I did, sorry king Yamma."
Goku looked at the big red Ogre again. "Hey umm king Yamma. Did a guy called Raditz come through here?" King Yamma looked at Goku for a second and tried to remember. "You know really log hair and a tail, very strong." King Yamma pointed behind Goku. "You mean that guy there?" Goku turned around to see his brother walking into the room they were in and being told to stop by a smaller ogre but ignored him. "Wow Raditz what are you doing here?" Goku asked. Raditz crossed his arms and frowned. "I got sent to the back of the queue for pushing in. "God it took forever." King Yamma frowned as he looked over Raditzs record. "Hmm let's see here. Murder, mass genocide, rape, kidnapping. Alright you're going to hell." Raditz frowned and was about to resist when king Yamma stopped. "Oh wait what's this. Well I'll be self-sacrifice, it's your lucky day Raditz, that one little move earns you a place right in heaven."
Raditz was completely surprised and almost felt sick. "Wait king Yamma, can Raditz come with me and Train at king Kais?" King Yamma laughed with a loud booming voice. "I don't think so; he may have earned a place in heaven, just. But he has by no right earned the right to train with King Kai!" Goku gave a little smile. "Aww come on King Yamma how about you train us, I bet your way stronger than this king Kai?" King Yamma smiled and started getting a little cocky, "Hahaha, well I have proved that I am pretty strong." Kami looked at Goku like he was crazy.
"Goku you fool king Kai is a lot stronger than king Yamma." King Yamma looked at Kami. "What was that? Did you say something Kami?!" kami held his hands up in defence. "N-No King Yamma I was just saying how you are so busy all the time that you don't have time to train him that's all." King Yamma frowned. "Whatever, anyway I will allow your brother to go with you to King Kais as a reward for such an excellent record of life. You must take snake way, but the journey will be anything but easy and if you are to fall off, you will go to hell so be careful!" Kami nodded. "Good luck Goku I'll tell your friends not to wish you back until the year is up, good luck with your training."
Goku nodded and smiled. "Thanks Kami. Hey come on Raditz let's get a move on!" Raditz was confused to hell already. "Wait why am I coming with you? But Goku grabbed him by the arm and pulled him along anyway.
Bulma and Roshi had arrived on the scene but they were too late. Gokus body had already disappeared, Ivy was sat alone where he had been lying, and the blood staining the grass was evidence enough. Not long after they got there Raditzs body also disappeared to their surprise and none of them had a clue.
"I-I can't believe Piccolo killed Goku." Bulma said with tears running down her checks. "What surprises me is that you say Raditz tried to save him from the blast?" Roshi said to Ivy. Ivy nodded as she too was trying to hold in her tears. "All that's left to do is gather the dragon balls and wish him back, if you say there is even stronger aliens coming after us now, we need all the man power we can get."
Suddenly a voice popped into Roshi, Ivy and Bulmas head. "Hello this is Kami can you hear me?" Roshi smiled and spoke up, "Yes Kami this is Roshi, what's the matter?" Ivy and Bulma thought they were going crazy but decided to ignore it and just listen. "I have some news about Goku." He said but was suddenly interrupted by Bulma. "G-Goku did you say Goku? Is he ok how is, what's he doing?!" Kami spoke up again. "Yes he is fine he is on his way to receive special training in otherworld from king Kai and you are not to wish him back for another year after his training is complete."
Bulma bowed her head with sadness. "I-I can't believe I'm not going to see him for another year." Bulma said with more tears. "So I recommend that you gather the dragon balls and wait, I will also be requesting Krillin, Yamcha, Tien and Chiaotzu to come and train at the lookout." Master Roshi nodded. "Ok thank you for the news Kami." Kami said his fair well and his voice disappeared. "Ok guys you herd him, let's get dragon ball hunting!" Roshi shouted trying to lighten the mood.
Meanwhile Goku and Raditz were sat in the back seat of a car with a small blue ogre with glasses on driving them to the beginning of snake way. "Oh my just look at you guys, you're so cool I could tell right away that your kung Fu guys, ohh you're so buff, I mean like macho supremeo." Raditz was sat with his arms crossed while Goku was looking out of the window. "Do you think I could learn kung fu?" The little blue ogre asked. Raditz suddenly snapped. "Look buddy if you don't shut up and get a move on the only thing you'll be doing is being dead. Got that?!"
Goku laughed. "Hey come on Raditz give him a brake. Hey so have you ever met this King Kai?" The ogre laughed. "Who me, I'm flattered that you think that, no I haven't met king Kai and I don't know of anyone who has apart from king Yamma." Goku smiled. "Woow and we get to meet him, this is sweet." Raditz just grunted. "Wellll maybe." The little blue ogre said.
The rest of the journey was quiet and Goku even started nodded off until Raditz slapped him for trying to rest his head on his shoulder. "Wake up fool." Raditz said. Goku looked around surprised. He gave a loud yawn. "Ahh man are we hear yet?" Just as he said it the car stopped and the little Blue ogre stepped out. "As a matter of fact we are." He walked over to the beginning of a long road that started with a large snakes head. "Now this is the road to king Kais, snake way and they put the big ugly snake head here, it gives me goose bumps every time I see it." Goku and Raditz got out of the vehicle. "Woow it seems so long." Goku said. Even Raditz was impressed. Goku jumped on top of the snake head. "Wooooww. Hey just how long is it?" The blue ogre smiled. "Well they say it's over 10,000 miles but nobody knows for sure." Goku almost slipped and fell over. "What! 10,000 miles!" Raditz whistled. "That is a mighty long way." "Has anybody ever made it?" Goku asked. The blue ogre smiled. "Just one. King Yamma but that was hundreds of years ago." Goku whistled this time. "If I'd had known it was this long I've had packed a lunch."
"Just remember not to fall off, because if you do there's no coming back. Well see ya." The little blue ogre said with a smile and hopped back in his car and drove off leaving Goku and Raditz to make their way along snake way. Raditz smiled. Ok little brother, let's get a move on!" Goku nodded, "Yeah!" With that both saiyans jumped into the air and blasted off at full speed.
A few hours passed and both fighters were beginning to get a little tired from all of the flying. Raditz of course could still keep going but Goku was beginning to slow. "Hey Kakarot how about we start running instead?" Goku smiled, "Yeah sounds good." Both saiyans dropped onto the path of snake way and began a fast passed run, of course this was mere child's play to them and they could run like that all day if they had to.
"S-So Raditz what are these two other saiyans like?" Raditz looked at his brother and back to snake way. "I'm not going to lie to you brother they are insanely strong. One of them, Nappa. He used to be a general in the saiyan arm under the king, before the planet blew up of course. He's very strong and could beat me with both hands behind his back."
Goku smiled but at the same time became serious. "That strong ha?" Raditz nodded. "But he's nothing compared… Compared to prince Vegeta." Goku looked at his brother waiting for him to carry on. "V-Vegeta is the strongest of us, he would have been king of our whole race if the planet was still around. A-And us were nothing but low class scum to him."
Goku got angry and disagreed. "No way. It doesn't matter what class you are, all that matters is how hard you train. Just you wait Raditz when we go back to earth we'll kick there sorry asses back to where they came from." Now Raditz was confused. "Wait we? I thought I was going to train with you for the hell of it, I didn't think I would be going back to earth to fight my old team mates." Goku smiled.
"Yeah of course, you risked your life to save me against piccolo back there. Now I recognise you as a brother, will you help be defend my friends and home brother?" Raditz smiled. "Well those two always treated me like shit and if this training makes us as strong as you say it will then I'm in. I would love to show Vegeta just how strong us low class can be." Goku smiled. "Alright that's the spirit! Let picks up the pace!" Goku and Raditz shifted gears and started running even faster, hoping to reach the end of snake way and begin their new training.
DBZ~
Quite a few months had passed since Goku had left for other world to train, Bulma and the gang had quickly gathered the dragon balls, which had now left her thinking more and more about how much she missed Goku. Of course she spent a lot of time with Ivy as the two had developed a strong friendship over the last few months. Ivy had moved to west city into an apartment, paid for by Capsule corp, Bulma had talked to her dad and got her a job working for the company, which Ivy very much appreciated and could not thank her enough for.
The two found themselves doing a lot together and found them chatting away like usual. Suddenly and somehow Gokus brother popped up into the convocation as Bulma asked what had happened that day.
"So what happened when Gokus brother kidnapped you?" Bulma asked. Ivy didn't really know how to put it. "Well at first I thought he was going to kill me, or worse. But all he did was ask about Goku." Bulma raised an eyebrow, "Really is that all?" Ivy nodded. "I thought he was evil at first, but he can't have been all that bad. It's not like he hurt me or anything. And once Goku and that green guy came, he just kind of forgot about me." Bulma nodded. "I still can't believe how much they look alike, I mean apart from the long hair and all. But you could really see it once he said he was Gokus brother." Bulma said taking a sip of her coffee.
Ivy nodded and then continued. "He can't have been that bad, I mean I saw the whole thing, he even tried to save Goku by taking a blast from the green guy for him." Ivy said trying to convince herself more than Bulma.
Bulma smiled. "Sounds to me like you've got a little crush on Gokus brother. And after he kidnapped you and everything." Ivy went bright red. "W-What, no I don't!" Bulma giggled to herself. "I wonder how Goku is doing up there?" She said out loud. Ivy nodded and looked up trying to imagine, the thought of Raditz popping into her head.
DBZ~
Goku and Raditz had both arrived at king Kais planet. It was very small but the gravity more than made up for it. As soon and Goku and Raditz landed they instantly felt the effects take a hold of their bodies. Goku fell down to his hands and knees finding too difficult to stand. Raditz however managed to stay on his feet but struggled to straighten his back. "W-What's up with this place, I feel so heavy." Goku said.
Raditz nodded. "It must be the gravity of the planet; it feels like that of our home." Suddenly they were both alerted to a presence and turned to see what it was. A small monkey stood staring at the two warriors; it looked them up and down and started to dance around. "H-Hey look that must be king Kai!" Goku said with excitement. Raditz frowned at his brother. "That's a monkey." He simply replied.
Goku started to follow it as it walked over across the grass. "Hey this must be part of the training." He said as he started to copy its movements. Raditz slapped himself in the face at just how ironic the sight really was. "I'm glad the others aren't here to see this." He thought to himself.
Suddenly a voice interrupted his thoughts and he turned around to see who it was. "What are you doing?" The voice asked as he watched Goku dance around copying his pet monkey. Raditz looked the alien up and down. His skin was blue and he wore a pair of black sunglasses over his eyes. He had a black hat on with long antenna pointing up, he also worse a large all in one robe with two pointy shoulder pads with a kanji symbol on the front and back. he had long red sleeves that ran down to his wrists.
Both Goku and Raditz looked at him strangely. "Who are you?" Goku asked. He smiled. "Why I'm king Kai." He said with a smile. Goku and Raditzs eyes opened as they herd his name. Goku laughed. "Oh when did you get here?" He asked. The Kai smiled. "Well about 1000 years ago." Raditz crossed his arms as he found it hard to believe this was the famous king Kai.
Goku smiled. "Wow your pretty old then." King Kai smiled. "Better to be pretty old than ugly old, get it?" he said with a chuckle. Goku rubbed the back of his head not really getting it while Raditz just ignored it.
King Kai smiled. "Hey not to bad ha? I'm in the zone today. I can feel it, you can laugh you know." Goku just looked at him blankly. "Umm no thanks." Raditz didn't say anything and just walked up to the two of them, slowly as he struggled under the gravity. King Kai frowned. "Truth crowd eh? Ok so you want some more do ya, well let's see."
"My uncle is so large that when he sits around the house, he really sits around the house." Gokus and Raditzs faces were still blank and they didn't quite get what he was trying to do. Suddenly the Kai started to imitate a telephone ringing and then answered it. "Yes hello, you don't say. Oh my gosh." Suddenly King Kai burst into a silly sit of laughter. "Umm who are you talking to?" Goku asked.
Suddenly Raditz interrupted him. "Look old man, we have come here to train, not listen to your terrible jokes." King Kai started to get mad as he jumped up and down. "Train! You train, why you wouldn't know a good joke if it came up and bit you!" Suddenly Goku burst out laughing while holding his stomach. Raditz looked at him like he was crazy, but caught onto what he was doing.
"I get it now, hahaha man you're too much king Kai!" Goku said laughing. This seemed to be doing the trick as the Kai turned around with a smile. "Well on second thought I guess I could train you." The kai laughed. "Oh course! But first… you must pass the test." Goku clenched his fists in excitement while Raditz gave a grin.
King Kai looked at the two of them with a dark expression, "Make me laugh. And you're in." Gokus and Raditzs faces suddenly changed as their mouths opened. "Wha?" Goku asked not believing it. "Well you want me to train you, then you have to tell me a joke. But it has to be a funny one for it to count." Goku shot back in shock, "WHAT? I cant do that!" Raditz smiled. Goku suddenly became all tense as he started to think.
He started mumbling to himself and the Kai started laughing. "Now, now staying lose is the key remember, if you cant do it. Then get out of here!" Suddenly Goku turned to face him. "W-Why did the chicken cross the road? IT WAS TOO FAR TO FLY!" He suddenly shouted. Raditz seat dropped onto the ground at hearing his terrible joke. But the Kai was shocked. The Kai started to try to hold his laugh in. Goku clocked onto it and shouted it again; Quickly he hit him with another on. "What's the difference between a jeweller and a jailer? One sells watches and one watches cells!"
Raditz had gotten back up and waited for the Kais reaction, to his surprise he started to laugh, and then fell over and started laughing even harder. He quickly got back up after laughing hard and turned to Goku wiping a tear from his eye as he did. "Ok kid your in." He then turned to Raditz. "Now it's your turn."
Raditz smiled as he prepared his joke. "Why did the chicken cross the road?" King Kai nodded. "Why?" Raditz smiled. "Because it did, I'm just saiyan." King Kai suddenly froze at what he had just heard. Suddenly his cheeks became red and he burst out with laughter hitting the deck hard as he started slamming his fist on the ground. Even Goku gave a small chuckle, "Haha I get it, because you're a saiyan, but your saying." Raditz nodded. "Yes brother I think he got that."
King Kai got back up, he smiled. "Alright I'll take both of you, with my tutoring you'll be able to deliver the best punch line in the universe!" Raditz and Goku looked confused. "but king Kai we came to lean martial arts." Goku said. The Kai looked at them both funny for a second. "Ohh well why didn't you say so!" He took a fighting stance and smiled. "Now both of you come at me. And don't worry I'm stronger than I look."
Raditz smiled and took a fighting stance. "Finally." He said with a smirk. Goku also took a fighting stance. Suddenly he stopped. "Hey King Kai, what's with this planets gravity, I just can't get used to it."
King nodded. "I see, I bet you're from earth aren't you. Well it's a surprise that you can even stand at all." He looked over to Raditz, "What about you?" Raditz smiled, "I am a saiyan warrior from the planet Vegeta, this is my brother Kakarot, he was raised on earth after he forgot his mission. Now my old comrades are coming to destroy his planet and he's asked me to help him out."
King Kai took a step back. "Wow that's not good, how long do you both plan on staying here then?" Goku explained their situation and what was happening. King Kai nodded, "Well then let's just see how long you have before the saiyans arrive on earth shall we?" King Kai said as he whipped his antenna forwards.
He started to concentrate until he got a lock onto the two saiyans heading for earth. "Alright, I've got them. Oh my, I'm afraid they don't come much stronger than these two." Raditz nodded, "You're telling me."
"At their current speed they should be arriving on earth in approximately 95 days." Goku was shocked. "Wow you can tell that, that's amazing!" Then he frowned. "So we've only got 95 days to prepare for them saiyans and that's not good." King kai smiled. "Don't worry, training with me none stop on this planet for 95 days, is probably worth 1000s years of training back on earth."
"There is one thing though, even if you both train, it doesn't mean you can win. Those saiyans are even stronger than me. So in order to beat them you will have to become stronger than me. But that doesn't scar you to bad does it?"
Goku and Raditz didn't reply. "Good, well I say we get started." King Kai said with a grin.
Alright I'm going to end it there, hope you enjoyed it =]. Now in dbz goku on has 88 days to train with king kai, but in this he was a stronger than normal and had Raditz with him so they made it even faster. Also let me know if I should put the power levels below to give you an idea of how strong they are. Anyway please leave a review and tell me what you think =]
