Goku hugged his sons, Gohan and Goten. "Don't chase after me this time," he said. "this is my fight."—he looked at Goten—"I expect you to train while I'm gone"—he looked over at Gohan—"and you're to help him."

Goten smiled. "Yesss!" he said.

Goku said bye to Chi-Chi, and he flew off.

It was summer. Gohan, still waiting for his dad to come home, was lonely—even with Chi-Chi's summer friends partying there. I remember Sharpner, Videl… even Akria… good times, Gohan thought.

"Gohan?" Chi-Chi said. "Aren't you coming?"

"Partying? No, not when I'm still waiting for dad."

Speaking of Goku, he had just arrived at Cetla Plains, with three fiends—two in back, one in front.

"So, you're Goku, eh?" Wen said. "You're not as strong as I thought."

Nomar and Krow laughed. "This is a cinch!"

The three ran for him, each grabbing his chest or arm. Goku, not the least bit hurt, flicked them off like bugs.

Wen sighed, and picked up three earings. He, Nomar, and Krow each put one on.

A red light appeared on them, and they began drawing closer to each other, until Wen was outside, and stronger, smarter, and faster. They had fused together.

Goku turned Super Saiyan 2, just in case. He'd seen this before.

Wen turned like a Super Saiyan 2… just looking a hecka lot different. Goku ran to kick him, but Wen stopped him with a beam. "Rarrrrgh," Goku yelled, being slammed back into a mountain, almost all the way through.

Goku didn't come out for awhile. Wen, thinking he killed him easily, went inside to kill him more, just in case. Goku sprang up and kicked Wen; with his good leg; and kept punching; until Wen ducked under and punched him.

"Kaaa… mai…. Ha… mai…" Goku said, after awhile, "HAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

A powerful beam shot against Wen (who had his back turned at the time, searching it looked like), and Wen was flown back into the same mountain as before… through it, and through another.

Wen, Krow, and Nomar split up again.

Goku was surrounded, but he remembered how weak they were before.

But this time, they were stronger than that. Goku needed strength before he could move on (he had been fighting for over a day now, almost three).

Could this be the end of Goku?

To be continued…
