She had met them...originally it was fine as just them...but soon he wanted to be more than just them.
(Present)
'I wonder why it is...that this is the only kind of life I can lead.' Kagome smiled sadly from the window she was staring out from, 'That even if history is changed, I won't have any regrets.'

The next day had Chichi and Kagome outside the spacecraft training while Bulma worked on the machine that would be carrying them out into space. Chichi showed the basic stances and watched the girls footing before walking forward, she stopped short and corrected her stance. "You aren't wrong in your stance, I assume someone has taught you something about fighting. You just seem to have forgotten."
Kagome nodded, 'probably because the last time I was taught the correct way to fight, and what stance to stand in, I also ended up making love to Vegeta and in the Gravity Chamber no less.' Kagome glanced to she ship where she knew such a chamber was being instilled, blushing at the memories.
"Was it him?"
Kagome blinked, turning her eyes to Chichi who was staring curiously at her, "...I'm sorry?"
"The one who taught you the stances, was it him. The father...the one you are prepared to scourge the universe for...the man who you turned back time for. Was it him...?"
Kagome nodded her head as she let the words sink in, clearly Goku talked a lot. "Yeah..."
"You think about him most all the time, don't you. I catch your eyes glazing over in thought every quiet moment you get, as if you can't concentrate on anything but him."
"I should probably try meditating, clearing my mind or something. It can't be normal...right?"
Shaking her head, Chichi laughed, "it's the bond. He probably thinks of you unbeknownst to him. Not knowing you yet, he considers his thoughts of you mere curiosity and pondering over the woman claiming to be his mate. But the Bond drives you to worry over your mate, to think about them consistently, and protect everything that makes them who they are...the things they love, and the things they themselves would die for. I think...that's why you did what you did."
"What do you mean?"
"Your instincts called for you to protect his heir, his seed. The bond tying you to him, moved you into action."
Thinking over that horrible day caused Kagome's heart to ache, but it made sense what Chichi was saying. To some extent, she felt that those things being said were absolute. But she also knew herself, and that she would have, even if the Dragon couldn't grant her wish, done something reckless to bring back those taken by a thoughtless wish. Even if it meant making a wish on that. She'd swore she wouldn't, not ever, but if it came to it...she knew deep down...she would sacrifice even her soul to save Trunks...and that's not saying what she'd give up for Vegeta. "Vegeta..."
Chichi smiled sadly but was quick to break Kagome from her trance and get her back on track. She would make sure she had no time to think about anything but training, and the time she did have to think, she'd be too tired to think!

"Kakarot! You are much too slow~! If you don't speed it up, you won't ever be strong enough to even hope to assist in the defeat of Frieza!" Raditz blocked an entourage of punches and turned his head to the side to avoid a punch to his face, bringing his knee up, he caught Goku by surprise and watched him keel over and cough up blood. "What nonsense!"
Goku coughed before sweeping his foot out and tripping his brother, having taken him by surprise. "I'm not out yet!"
Raditz was hovering and smirking down at his little brother, 'he'd make a great warrior...if he wasn't such a friendly bastard!' the two were quick to return to battle, exchanging punches and kicks, blocking blows and avoiding head shots with each turn of the face.
"I WON'T GIVE UP!"
Raditz watched Goku power up and his speed increased a bit and Raditz took this as a challenge and was quick to power up as well before charging his younger sibling. Only a month had passed, and he had much to teach his baby brother. "YOU'LL BE A SAIYAN YET, DEAR BABY BROTHER!"

"When will daddy be back?" Gohan whimpered sadly.
Krillin kneeled down in front of the little boy, which technically wasn't all that necessary, considering how close in height they both were. "Listen Gohan, it's only been three hours, you need to be strong for you dad while he trains with your...uncle...your dad will be back sometime tomorrow, don't you worry about that!"
Gohan began balling at the softly spoken Krillin's attempt to assure him of his father's return. "I want daddy! I want mama!"
"SHUT UP!"
Both Krillin and Gohan jumped in fear at the sound of an enraged Piccolo. Krillin tried to calm the Namekian down, but he was far more intimidating than Krillin appeared to be.
"Give him to me! I'll train him and teach the boy! He'll learn quickly that crying will do him no good out in the real world." Before Krillin could move, or Tien and Yamcha for that matter, Piccolo had the child by the collar of his shirt, and was glaring at the Z-Fighters before him. "Get in my way, and you won't be around to welcome Goku back from his training with his brother. I will return with the boy to train with him in the chamber, but he's getting nothing done with the bunch of you."
And like that, he flew off with a yelling, crying, screaming, kicking Gohan, in hand.
Krillin looked on in horror, turning his eyes to Tien, he shook, "I feel like the devil himself just took Gohan."
"Pretty close, I would say."
"I don't think I've ever heard him say so much...ever! On top of that, if he doesn't bring back Gohan, Goku's going to freak." Yamcha muttered.
Shaking his head, Krillin closed his eyes, "I'm more worried about Chichi..."
Chills ran through their spines, each envisioning a torture far worse than anything Goku could dish out.
