Chapter 10
During the three years of training Goku and Gohan managed to fully master Super Saiyan 2, 3, and 4, and has been staying in Super Saiyan 2 since the mastered the other forms. Goku and Piccolo got his driving licenses. As the first year came to a close Grandpa Gohan came back into existence, and was excited to be alive and well (He forgave Goku for his death: as Grandpa Gohan put there was nothing to forgive) they also wished back the moon and that whoever was considered Goku's Family would be Immortal (so the Z-Fighters and their family {Krillen, Tien, Yamcha, Chiaotzu, Bulma, Vegeta, Goten, Trunks, Chi-Chi, Dende, Piccolo, Grandpa Gohan, Roshi} and other's that any of them Marry, and their kids {Repeat}), and Grandpa Gohan was staying with Roshi so he could control the old master. As the second year came to a close Trunks and Surprisingly Goten were born on the same day (also on that day Goku helped Vegeta get his tail back) both kids having tails, Goku, Gohan and Vegeta begged Chi-Chi and Bulma not to cut off the tails (They women didn't {Since Goku could re-grow the tails anyways}). As the third year died they finished their training and were headed to the island (Bulma, baby Trunks, baby Goten, and Chi-Chi were at Capsule Corp. so they wouldn't get in the way).
On the day everyone made it to the island they waited on the mountain closest to the town, and at ten they heard an explosion. They flew down to where the explosion happened and they split up. Goku and Gohan found Android 19 and 20 walking around like nothing had happened.
They landed on the street on the far side of the two androids and were walking in the directions of the Androids. As they got closer they staged a loud conversation.
"I wonder what blew up this time." Goku said.
"No idea." Gohan said. "I bet it was some goon from the Red Ribbon Army."
"They were weak." Goku said. "I mean beaten by a thirteen year old…"
"True but that thirteen year old is an alien." Gohan said.
"True." Goku said.
As they walked past the androids they flicked their tails and the two androids were sent flying.
"Flare you Ki for the others." Goku said.
"On it dad… hey I sense Vegeta entering the atmosphere." Gohan said, while flaring his Ki. "He's much powerful than before."
"He did it, he finally ascended, and we told him the birth of his son would do him wonders, for desire." Goku said.
The two Androids got up and walked towards Goku and Gohan.
"I see that you two are very…." The old man with a white beard started to say. "You look familiar…" The androids stopped for a second. "Ah, I know who you are Goku… what did you do to your hair?"
"What do you mean?" Goku asked like he completely innocent. "My hair has always been like this."
"No it's always been black." The old man said.
The round body and white face android nodded.
"Oh… you mean before I reached a new power." Goku said.
"What do you mean reached a new power?" Gero asked.
"Well 19, 20; My son and I are what you might call Saiyans, like the two that came from earth all those years ago… yeah, I'm a full blooded Saiyan, while my son here, Gohan, is only a half blooded Saiyan."
"At least Gero isn't like Baby." Gohan said (Goku talked about what had happened after Buu was taken care of).
"Beat him last week… actually all I did was apologizing on behalf the species." Goku said.
"That's where you went?" Gohan asked. "I thought you went to the lookout."
"Yeah… he promised he wouldn't be out to destroy our race…"
"Enough talk." 20 said.
"You'll have to catch us first." Goku and Gohan said.
They took off in the direction of Gero's lab, with the Androids in hot pursuit. As they reached the area surrounding the lab the Gohan and Goku dropped to the ground. Together they shot energy blasts at the Androids; the androids raised their hands and absorbed the attack.
"Thank you." 20 said as the Androids landed.
"Please we knew that you'd absorb it… that's why we sent the weakest one available." Gohan said.
"And how did you know that we could do that?" 20 asked.
"Us from the future." Goku said.
Goku launched at the round android (19) and broke it in half. 20 (Gero) looked shocked; Goku had beat android 19 in less than a minute.
'Is Goku more powerful than I thought?" Gero thought to himself. 'I need to get to my lab… what's that… the other fighters… their here.'
Gero flew off to his laboratory.
"I guess we should stop him before he activates 17 and 18." Goku said in a board tone.
Before they could follow (In SLOW pursuit) the others came flying by. As they landed they noticed Vegeta was also there.
"Good, you guys made it." Gohan said.
"Here we thought that we may have to fight this battle by ourselves." Goku said.
"You could battle them without our help… you mainly asked for Krillen to join this fight for some reason." Yamcha said. "The rest of us crashed."
"Funny." Krillen said. "Why did you… does this have anything to do with the thing we haven't been told yet?"
"I think it does." Piccolo said.
The group took off to Gero's lab. Vegeta knocked the door down to reveal a newly deceased android 20/Gero and three regular androids up and about.
"Hello Androids 16, 17, and 18." Goku said. "Krillen handle 18, I'll handle 16."
"And I'll handle 17." Gohan said.
"I have only have business with the one called Goku." 16 said.
Goku stepped up. "I am Him." He said.
"Excellent." 16 said.
"You know… you don't have to fight." Goku said. "None of you do."
"Please… and miss out on all the fun?" 17 asked.
"I wouldn't mind." 16 said. "I only have one mission in life… and that is to eliminate Goku."
"Well you'll have a hard time killing me by staying there." Goku said as he floated out the open door. "Piccolo, you Yamcha, and Tien go find a secret door around here… enter it, follow the tunnel, grab as many blueprints as you can… destroy the machine… make sure no living thing can survive, make it a huge blast. Piccolo after that… go talk to Kami, tell him the bug is back… and it's time to step down. Vegeta… once the three make it out of the tunnel I want you to do another blast down there." Yamcha, Krillen and Tien looked confused at the message for Kami.
Piccolo, Tien and Yamcha followed Goku's order and started looking for the trap door. Gohan charged at 17, 17 was knocked out of the area and Gohan followed. Krillen and 18 stood watching each other waiting for the other one to make a move
'She's pretty.' Krillen thought. 'no, she's an android… she can't have feelings."
'He's pretty cute… Goku did say we didn't have to destroy…' 18 thought. 'Let's see what baldy can do.'
18 charged at Krillen.
Goku was up in the air battling against 16. 16 was a very capable robot… sadly, it wasn't good enough, Goku vaporized him in less than twenty minutes, and he then flew off to watch Gohan fight 17.
Gohan's fight against 17 was taking longer than Goku's fight, since 17 (and 18) had a spark (or more) of free will. Gohan beat 17 in less than an hour… with a blast from above. After 17 was dead Goku and Gohan flew off to find 18 and Krillen.
When the two arrived they saw something that no one, except Goku and Gohan, would expect… Krillen and 18 were standing there making out. The two landed on the cliff above them and smiled.
"Hey Krillen." Goku yelled.
18 and Krillen jumped and looked at the two on the cliff.
"What?" Krillen complained.
"Good catch." Gohan yelled.
Both 18 and Krillen blushed.
"Good you needed more color on your faces." Yamcha said from behind.
18 and Krillen looked behind them to see everyone coming back.
"Come on you guys it's time to go home… at least to Capsule Corp." Goku said. "I have a feeling that an announcement will be made… very soon."
As they group was flying off (Krillen and 18 were also cuddling) they felt two powers had merged and teleported to another location, where it met another very powerful Ki signature… that looked like all of the Z fighters. After an hour of flight they arrived at the Capsule Corp. they went to the living room and turned on the TV, after a few minutes of watching Piccolo came in.
"Well he took the news well." Piccolo said rubbing his arm.
"What did he say?" Gohan asked.
"He said he wants a challenge." Piccolo said. "He's far weaker right now… he said to watch the news."
Two hours later the Cell Games were announced to take place after ten days, and if he doesn't get beaten h the planet was done for.
"Well that was…" Krillen said.
"I can't wait to fight him." Gohan said.
"You are not fighting that big bug." Chi-Chi said.
"But he's one of the strongest here." Goku said.
"But he's only 10." Chi-Chi said.
"Aw… but he's turning eleven two days before the battle." Goku said.
"Mom, I want to fight." Gohan said.
"But you're so young." Chi-Chi said.
"Not as young as you might think." Gohan said.
"I guess it's time to tell you." Goku said.
"I come from the future, thanks to the Dragon Balls." Gohan said.
There was a huge gasp from around the room… minus Piccolo.
"I've already fought Cell and won… and that Cell was much more powerful." Gohan said.
"And I come from a time father than anyone has lived… I've met my great, great, great, great, great, great Grandchildren… they died in a half take over, half destruction of planet earth, thanks to a combined version of Frieza, King Cold, and Cooler." Goku said.
"So when did you arrive in the past?" Bulma asked.
"I arrived right as Gohan was kidnapped by my brother." Goku said.
"I arrived the day before the tournament." Gohan said.
"So that's why it seems like you two have been doing a few things ahead…" Bulma said.
"What do you mean?" Yamcha asked.
"The month before the Tournament Goku and Gohan came to get information on it." Bulma said. "That wasn't strange… but he talked to my dad… when I asked what it was about he said that Goku asked for a ship… he then named three locations… his brother's ship, his ship, and the Namekian ship." She took a breath. "That's how we were able to leave so soon after everyone was checked out."
"Yeah… I've been trying to make something's stay the same… then I completely change other things." Goku said.
"Like how he was on the same ship as us." Gohan said. Everybody looked at him. "What… he was in the Hospital for about three weeks, Vegeta crushed him, and then once he got out it took one week for him to get there, where we were losing to the Ginyu force when he arrived."
"What do you mean losing to the Ginyu Force?" Krillen asked.
"You and I had distracted Guldo long enough for Vegeta to kill him… but with Recoome we didn't hurt him… even Vegeta wasn't able to hurt him, dad showed up during that fight and took down Recoome with one punch. Then dad beat Burter and Jeice, and then had his body switched with Ginyu, we fought dad, made him stronger dad was able to get in the way of the Body switching technique before Ginyu got in my body, then dad threw a frog when he tried to swap with Vegeta."
"Oh, yeah I forgot about that." Goku said. "I was in that tank for an hour."
"Where we were beaten up by the four forms of Frieza." Gohan said."It took Krillen to die for dad to become a Super Saiyan."
"Which I was hesitant to use my full power and it came back to bite, when Frieza and his father King Cold came… where a future form of Trunks beat him in Super Saiyan."
"My brat can go Super Saiyan?" Vegeta asked.
"So will Goten, they have a lot more energy than any of us at their age…" Goku said. "Right Gohan?"
"True." Gohan said. "I could barely dodge stones that Goten threw… he wasn't even in the Super Stage… and I was."
Everyone looked at them in shock.
"But to be honest." Gohan said. "I didn't train for seven years… and the earth paid for it."
"What do you mean?" Chi-Chi asked.
"After the Cell Games… after dad died for the second time…."
"WHAT!" Chi-Chi yelled.
"It's not that I didn't want to come back Chi-Chi, it's just that if I had stayed, something worse could have happened, and I wanted you guys to stay safe."
"How did you die?" Bulma asked.
"The first time was when I was facing my brother, I trained at King Kai's for the year, then when Cell was activating the self-destruct on him I teleported Cell and myself to King Kai's planet so Cell wouldn't destroy the world."
"That's what you meant by bombs." Bulma said. "You wished that someone would forget about bombs."
"Yeah… but this time, both me and Gohan can't be killed so we're ready for anything." Goku said.
"What do you mean?" Vegeta asked.
"Last wish I wished that everyone I consider Family… their wives… sons, daughters, everyone that I trust will be Immortal." Goku said. "So if Krillen decides to marry 18, she will be as well, our sons… daughters everyone."
"Including Roshi and Grandpa Gohan." Gohan said. "For the kids lower than the age eighteen, they will age until eighteen, and then stop."
"Wow." Bulma said. "That's was semi-selfish of you."
"I don't want to lose my family… I did three times, one I let Piccolo kidnap Gohan just to train against Vegeta and Nappa… then the second time was for seven years where there was a big fight, where we had to use the Dragon Balls to wish everyone…minus Gohan, Vegeta, Dende, Hercule Satan and myself back to life, and then I was turned into a kid and after a year, I went to train with Shenron."
"And he didn't get back until my great, great, great Grandson was needed the four star ball." Gohan said.
"I had GRANDCHLIDREN?!" Chi-Chi screamed.
All Saiyans and Saiyan Hybrid's (Minus the two little ones) and Piccolo covered their ears, while the babies started to scream themselves.
"Honey… you have six people here with very sensitive hearing… can you please not yell?" Goku asked.
"Sorry." Chi-Chi said.
"So we have ten days before the big event…" 18 said. "Why did he decide that?"
"He wants to get stronger… since he can't absorb 16 or 17, and we won't let him absorb you." Goku said. "For the ten days he'll go about getting strength… or just train… he doesn't know that me or Gohan have more power than anyone else on this planet, though if Vegeta goes at him and Blasts him… and he survives he'll get stronger."
"So you better not go after him." Bulma told her husband.
"I'm smarter than that, women." Vegeta said.
"Anyways… Gohan and I are going to relax during the ten day break…" Goku said.
"What about training?" Vegeta asked.
"We could take you all on without going Super… even though we are in Super right now… we don't need it to take care of you." Gohan said.
"We trained in high Gravity… trained with more weights in our weighted clothes on." Goku continued.
"Now we just want to have fun." Gohan finished.
"Plus we should go around the world and make sure no one panic`s due to Cell's threat." Goku said.
"Like that one village." Gohan said.
"And the traffic in the city will be horrible." Goku said. "Good thing we don't need to drive."
"What about me?" Bulma asked.
"I thought Vegeta, or Chi-Chi taught you how to fly?" Goku said.
"Chi-Chi did, I'm not good at it at the moment." Bulma said.
"Well, all you have to do is practice." Gohan said.
"Come on, Chi-Chi, grab Goten, we should head home… it's been a trying day." Goku said.
"Your right." Chi-Chi said. Chi-Chi grabbed Goten and walked over to Goku. "So flying? Or teleporting?"
"Well, since we have Goten… why not teleport." Goku said.
Goku put his hand on his wife's shoulder, and the two of them disappeared. Gohan waved bye to everyone then disappeared himself.
The three of them appeared at the house.
It's been four days since the threat of Cell destroying the world. The first three days Krillen and 18 were over talking about the future, Krillen and Chi-Chi spared some, as well as 18 and Gohan, while Goku was taking care of Goten.
On the fourth day Gohan who was wearing his white shirt and black pants with his tail acting like a belt, was flying to the nearest town and saw a girl, wearing red purple overalls and a yellow shirt, with brown hair, on a branch… the branch snapped and started to fall into a river. Gohan flew down and caught her before she made it to the river; he flew up and placed her on the side she fell from. As they landed Gohan let her go.
"Thank you." The girl said.
"You're welcome." Gohan said. "My name's Gohan."
"Mine's Lime." Lime said.
'Well Lime, do you know where a town, or village is?" Gohan asked (Even though he already knew). "I know there's one close, I would've have elsewhere, but thanks to Cell's threat the towns and villages are empty. My mom gave me a list of food she needs."
"Yeah, I came from there; I was trying to pick some Apples for my grandpa and me." Lime said. "Follow me; my Grandpa owns the store there."
Gohan followed her to the village. Once there they headed into one of the stores. When they entered they saw two men in cowboy hats, blue shirts, tan pants and suspenders; one was round shape and the other was thin as a candle.
"You'll give us all the food you have." The round one said.
"I have told you millions of times; I don't care if you work for Borbonne is your boss… you will have to pay like everyone else."
"Come one, we'll give you free admittance to the protective dome." The thin one said. "What do you say Mr. Lao?"
"You are all foolish if you think that that dome will never be able to protect anyone." The old man with white hair, a white mustache wearing a whit button down shirt and black pants, said.
Well, I guess we just have to make sure there are no incidents." The round one said picking up a broom and started smashing glass jars that were on the shelf.
"CELL!" Lime yelled.
The round and thin goons jumped and ran out of the store.
"Lime you shouldn't yell like that." Gohan said. "I could have beaten those guys up."
"Lime." Lao said with a warning voice. "What did I say about Lying?" Lao said as he looked at Lime and Gohan. "And who's this?"
"Hello Mr. Lao…" Gohan said. "I need some supplies." Gohan said handing him the list that Chi-Chi gave him.
"How did you know Grandpa's name?" Lime asked.
"The two Goons said it." Gohan said. "Do you mind if I stay for a while? I want to look around?"
"Of course, I'll gather these things when I'm done chopping wood." Lao said.
"If you want too, sir, I can handle that… just show me where." Gohan said.
"If you're sure… Lime can you show him to where I chop wood." Lao said.
Lime took Gohan behind the store. Gohan started gathering the wood from the pile that needed to be chopped. He threw the wood up in the air.
"What are you doing?" Lime asked.
"Chopping the wood, but first I have to wait till they come down." Gohan said while looking up.
"But you don't have an axe?" Lime said. "That's how chopping wood works."
"Don't need one." Gohan said.
The first of the wood came down Gohan threw a chop at it with his hand cutting the thing in two, he jumped up and did the same with the other falling pieces of wood. The wood fell into a nice stack of chopped wood.
"Wow." Lime said.
"Thanks, my dad can do that much better than I can." Gohan said; while making it seem like his power is very far less than what it was. He picked the pieces of wood up and put them by the door.
"Really?" Lime asked.
"I started doing it about three years ago…" Gohan said. "My dad did it since he was twelve."
"Really?" Lime asked.
"Yep, can we go get some Apples?" Gohan asked rubbing his stomach. "I had a small breakfast… since my mom was running out of supplies."
"Sure."
They walked awhile till they found an Apple tree, then they sat down ate apples and talked.
"So you've seen Aliens?" Lime asked, after Gohan told him about going to another planet. "Is that what Cell is?"
"Sort of…" Gohan said.
"I guess you may not know about that." Lime said. "You know I've never seen anyone with hair and teal eyes like yours."
"Yeah, very creepy… my hair is normally black, and my eyes are black." Gohan said.
Before they could say more they were interrupted by the noise of the grand opening of the dome. They snuck up behind some bushes keeping down low.
"Watch this…" Lime started.
"You aren't going to do anything crazy…. Right?" Gohan asked.
"CELL!" Lime called ignoring Gohan.
The man in charge of the whole thing ran inside the dome and all of his acquaintances with him shutting the door on everyone that didn't work for him. Lime started laughing, with Gohan starting to laugh, since it was funnier than the last time it happened. After a few seconds of laughing the two were at gun point.
"Stand up you hooligans." One of the goons said.
Lime and Gohan stopped Laughing, and stood up, Lime looking scared, while Gohan was trying not to release his Saiyan side. Borbonne came out shouting at the two kids.
"Mr. Borbonne, you don't want to pick this fight." Gohan said.
"What are you talking about?" Borbonne asked.
"Your fight isn't with those kids." A voice coming from the forest said.
Everyone turned around and say Lao wearing yellow pants and a blue shirt with yellow sleeves coming out of the forest.
"Your fight is with me." Lao said.
"And me." Gohan said.
"Gohan, this isn't you fight." Lao said.
"Oh it is, he threatened me and an innocent kid, and that make my blood boil." Gohan said.
"That girl is not innocent." Borbonne said.
"She's more innocent than you." Gohan said. "You were going to let everyone out here being attacked by Cell, if he was here, and I wasn't." Gohan's voice was cold.
Gohan disappeared and reappeared after a minute, all the guards were on their back, unconscious.
"That was just a taste." Gohan said.
"Tao… Get out here." Borbonne yelled into the dome.
Gohan was looking forward to this fight.
"Let me handle this." Lao said.
"No this is still my fight, like you said Borbonne is your fight." Gohan said.
"Can I finally kill someone now?" Tao said walking out.
"Yeah these people right here." Borbonne said.
"Well this doesn't look like much of a challenge." Tao said as he got into position.
"Sure a walk in the park." Gohan said taking his stance.
Tao was glaring at Gohan… then he remembered something.
"Kid, you aren't a person named Goku, are you?" Tao asked slowly.
"No, I'm not." Gohan said, Tao breathed a sigh of release. "Though he did tell the story to why you're like that." Tao looked at him again. "And I'm his son… you might remember me from the time I beat you up… when I was little, the kid in the woods." Tao was more scared than he ever was. "So make your move." Gohan teased.
Tao ran to the nearby tree, flung the tree in the air and flew away on it.
"Where are you going? It looks like you saw a ghost?" Borbonne said as Tao was flinging the tree.
"If you face Goku's family you might as well be seeing ghosts." Tao yelled as he jumped on the tree and flew away.
"I didn't see that coming." Borbonne said.
"Now, Mr. Lao, Borbonne is all yours."
"Stop, you can't… I was only doing what was necessary." Borbonne said.
"Borbonne, you don't get it… That dome, isn't strong enough to hand Cell." Gohan said.
Gohan raised his hand to the dome and shot a Ki blast at it. The building was demolished.
"If I can do that, what do you think Cell could do? He's not even as strong as me." Gohan said. "But doing what I just did would be like swatting a fly for him."
"…"Borbonne was silent, and scared.
"Gohan… I thought I told you not to show off." A voice came from above.
Everyone looked up and saw a man with tan pants a white shirt and an orange jacket with black sleeves. Goku fell down to the ground, very gently.
"You did a number on the dome, good thing no one was in it." Goku said.
"Good thing, good thing." Borbonne said. "He's lucky that no one was in it." Borbonne shouted.
"I knew no one was in it." Gohan said to Borbonne. He turned to his dad. "Sorry I forgot to grab the supplies."
"No you didn't silly." Lime said as she handed him a box.
"So, you must be Goku." Lao said.
"I see my son talked about me." Goku said.
"No, it was someone called Tao." Lao said; Goku nodded. "I have a feeling that your son and you will be competing in the Cell Games?"
"We are… we're more powerful than meets the eye." Goku said.
"Well good luck." Lao said.
"Thank you…" Goku said. "Gohan, it's time to go."
Gohan started floating upwards, with Goku on his tail, as they left Gohan and Goku waved goodbye.
The rest of the days passed slowly… yet fun, and happened just like last time, except Cell was weaker but still did the same amount of damage.
