She had met them...originally it was fine as just them...but soon he wanted to be more than just them.
(Present)
It was only a few moments after Goku and Kagome's silence that Roshi and Krillin sensed the same energy that they had.
"It feels evil..." Kagome frowned, "it's coming from that direction." Kagome pointed ahead.
"I don't know what you're talking about, Kagome, no one is coming. You guys are just trying to freak me out, right?!"
"Bulma, you should get back."
Bulma tried to grab Gohan and retreat further away from the others, but Gohan was faster and brushed past her, trying his best to get to his father. Kagome grabbed him before he could reach Goku and held him in a firm, but gentle hug.
There, finally in their sight, was a man built like a beast, his hair flared' dangerously down his back in spikes of ebony, and just by looking at him, she knew. "You're a Saiyan too! Like Goku...and Vegeta..."
His eyes, immediately they were drawn to her. But he withdrew his attention, and gave it back to Goku. "So we meet again at last, you've grown up...I recognize you though...Kakarot."
Goku looked back at Kagome, "that's the name you called me by earlier...wasn't it? Kakarot? So..." his eyes met with the guy hovering before them, "I guess that proves it, I really am a Saiyan. That...or the two of you cooked up a pretty elaborate lie."
"I honestly have no idea who this is. Vegeta never mentioned any other Saiyans, besides you, and the kids, but even they were only half Saiyan...oh...well, he mentioned one other. Vegeta has a brother...Turble...but, apparently he doesn't like him all that much." Kagome looked at the guy ahead of them, "is that you? Turble?"
The man scoffed, "please~! Don't compare me to such a weakling~! AUGH! And how do you know of Prince Vegeta!? Who are you? ANSWER ME!"
"...My name is Kagome..." she stepped forward, despite the child in her arms, choosing to brave the fires in this mans eyes. "I am Prince Vegeta's mate, the proof is on my neck, and is carried in my scent...as well..." her hand dropped to her womb, and the man stared in shock, lost in horror, absolutely stunned by her daring words.
"Do you think me a fool, woman!? Prince Vegeta has never been to this mud ball of a planet! Had he ever stepped foot on this rock, I promise you, no one would still be here!"
"...you are right...he hasn't been on this planet, yet. Though, that changes nothing. I am who I said I am...you on the other hand, have yet to give us a name or anything else to go by."
"..." the man growled in annoyance, but lowered himself to the earth's surface. A quick sniff of the air had his eyes widening, shock harbored deep in his eyes before he spoke, his voice much calmer than before. "Raditz...I am the elder brother of Kakarot."
A wave of surprised outcries filtered the air.
Raditz ignored them all and continued, his eyes solely on Kagome and his brother. "We are Saiyans, a part of a warrior race, and the last of only a few. Vegeta, myself, Kakarot, and one other Saiyan...remain. Then of course...your unborn...if you truly are Vegeta's mate, I can only assume the child you carry is his heir. That would make the brat a half-breed. So five of us."
Kagome shook her head, "Six..." she looked down at Gohan who was quick to bury his head in her neck to avoid eye contact with his uncle.
"So this one is-"
"Kakarot's son." Kagome answered.
"What is this Kakarot nonsense!?" Bulma yelled out in annoyance. "His name is Goku!"
Krillin nodded, "Yeah, you guys have lost me."
Raditz sneered, "Kakarot, your mission was to destroy all life on this planet, yet clearly life still remains! Why have you not completed such a simple task!?"
Kagome frowned, "Saiyans...are sweepers?"
"Tch...Exterminators, more like."
"Listen Mister! I don't know who you are, but you obviously got the wrong guy! Shoo, shooo~!" Krillin moved closer to Raditz.
Kagome felt his aura moving, not necessarily aggressively, but strategically, calculatingly. She wasn't even able to yell out a warning when Raditz's tail whipped out dangerously across Krillin's face and sent him sprawling into Kame House, leaving his body half in and half out of a newly made hole. "That wasn't necessary~! You knew he was weaker, so why bother!?"
"Humph...because he was weaker. He needed to learn his place."
"Look Goku!" Roshi pointed, "he has...a tail!"
Goku's turned to the tail and he shook his head, "you have a tail too!?"
"So you finally recognize me?"
"No, I don't! You said you were my brother, but I don't recognize you at all!"
"GRRrr~! KAKAROT! ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT YOU HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT YOUR SAIYAN HERITAGE?!"
"None." Goku said firmly.
Gohan struggled to move from Kagome's arms, scared and nervous, he wanted to be safe, and Kagome was sure that his father was the safest place he knew of. "Be strong Gohan," Kagome whispered, "Daddy needs to focus, this man might be dangerous...so be strong and let daddy talk."
Gohan stilled in her arms and placed his head against her chest, listening to her heart as he tried his best to become invisible to the bad man.
"Tell me Kakarot, when you were a child, did you ever suffer a serious injury to the head?! Well? DID YOU!?"
Kagome glanced curiously at Goku, unsure of how any of this was important.
"...what?" Goku frowned as well, unsure of the importance of such a thing. "Not that it matters, but yes, I did. I don't really remember what happened, but I hit my head really hard when I was a baby."
"Damn it...! You forgot! You forgot everything!" Raditz snapped.
"Forgot what!?"
"Goku," the attention was stolen from Goku and Raditz, and now lay at the feet of Master Roshi. Kagome was still trying to sooth Gohan's worried heart, running small circles over his back as he lay in her arms. "There's something...something that your grandfather once told me, that I think you should know. Your grandfather had been walking through the forests when he came across a recently made crater, looking inside, he found what appeared to be a ship of some sort, and next to it...you. To be perfectly honest, he tried to raise you, but you were ill-mannered, wild, down right uncontrollable...and unusually strong for a baby...one day there was a terrible accident. You fell from an incredibly high cliff, and Gohan was frightened that he might have lost you forever. But you recovered...where a normal child would not have survived. From then on, you were a loving and caring little boy."
"I'm from outer space?"
"It shouldn't be too much of a shock, Goku...and there is no reason to scorn it either. You are who you are, because of both...the blood in your veins, and the people who raised you here on earth."
Goku nodded, listening to Kagome's words. She was right, had he been an earthling, he would not have survived the fall from the cliff. "What is it you've come to earth for?" He asked, trying for a much calmer tone...though seeing his best friend getting smashed into a wall did little to calm his nerves, he wasn't ready to anger his so called brother.
"...As much as it annoys me to say this, we require all the help we can get."
"We?" Kagome inquired, "Are you also referring to Vegeta, and the other Saiyan?"
"Correct, little girl."
Kagome glared at Raditz, but otherwise she kept her mouth shut.
"There is a monster, far stronger than anyone you have ever fought, stronger than myself by millions."
"Frieza," Kagome said with consideration.
Nodding, Raditz kept on, "as I speak, he is within this space quadrant, and making his way through the planets. It won't take him much to destroy Earth should it not be up to his standards...and I can tell you, it's not."
"...what do you want me to do?"
Raditz clenched his fists tightly before yelling out loud in hopes of getting his point across, "I want you to join the last of your race, and fight him alongside your Prince and brother!"
