What?! Two chapters in one day?! Yeah, well, this is the outcome of boredness at its finest. Thanks to Angel Abi, shellymoon, and emptysky for reviewing! ^_^ Well, finally, I can get into the main story *cheers are heard from the background, probably from people that were paid off*. This is more of an explanation chapter, I guess. Urg, you have no idea how annoying CODENAME: Blue Moon Project X is being to me right now. And if you are wondering what it is, then you will just have to wait until I release it to find out. *sticks out tongue* Neener neener!
Disclaimer: If I owned DBZ, would I be making this disclaimer? Probably, since I would brag about it. But, unfortunately, I don't own it. u_u
Six Years Later
Chapter 3
Ever since Vegeta had lost the match, he had never been the same. He was more determined then ever to train himself to be a better fighter. Better, so he could beat that little kid. Not that he wasn't a little kid too. He thought highly of himself, as a strong champion of a royal line, even though he never really tried to improve his skills, since he thought he was basically invincible. His ability to gain a deep, hidden strength within and make his hair turn blonde had boosted his ego into the red zone.
It had happened, strangely enough, in the aftermath of a fight at school. Someone had said something that ridiculed his hair, which made Vegeta lunge at him and try to suffocate him. No one makes fun of the hair. But, this kid was one of those kids that was held back five times and was extremely large for his age. He beat Vegeta down. Hard. Vegeta had gone home in a tattered, torn mess. This wasn't the first time he was made fun of. It happened often, especially cracks about his hair. And that's what made him start to train. But, after this fight, this fight that had made him the laughing stock of the school. He broke down. He was humiliated in front of everyone. They all thought him weak. Weak.
That moment made him explode with anger, as his hair had turned a bright gold and he was shrouded with a golden light. The new power overwhelmed him, and it only lasted for a second, as he dropped out of the transformation, sweat pouring all over his body, eyes wide in shock and slight terror. His room was in shambles, as mostly everything had been incinerated by the power he was emitting.
He went to his parents to ask what had happened, and they just stared at him, in shock. They thought he might be lying, but that changed when they saw his room. They directed him to his grandmother, Panty. She had told him that he descended from a royal bloodline that allowed the transformation to happen, giving him unimaginable powers. She then gave him notes that her uncle had created, that talked about how to access the transformation and learn new abilities. In it, was documented how to fly, sense ki, hide ki, transform, and two attacks called Gallic Gun and Burning Attack. Over time, Vegeta studied and learned them. He gained a new social status at school, especially beating up the local mob of bullies. And he was content. He was invincible. He needed nothing else. Except, something felt missing from his life. He needed to show his power off. And the best place, was the tournament.
He despised Goku for his win, blaming his stupidity for it. "Dumb luck," Vegeta had always said, and Goku had always replied with only a chuckle. As it may be, the two's grandmothers had known each other, and would constantly get together with each other. The offer always stood for Vegeta to accompany Panty and see Goku again, but Vegeta just scowled and declined. Eventually, though, curiosity got the better of him. The best way he could train to become stronger was to spar with the one that beat him. Technically, it was Vegeta's own stupid fault that he hadn't won, but still the thought that Goku had beat him in the competition stood with him. And, he wanted to find out how this kid could make his hair turn blonde like he could.
***
For Goku, it was different. He had always been a coward, never realizing his abilities. And he too, was victim to the school bully. That is, until Grandma Pan had gotten sick. Goku had heard of the legend of the dragonballs from her, and he decided to find them to heal her. The school bully, Pahku, accompanied him and they soon became friends. They got into a fight with a dinosaur, and as it may be Goku had learned a few things from his grandmother, but wasn't that great of a fighter. When all things seemed grim, and the thought that he may not be able to save Grandma Pan raced through his head, he exploded. The transformation overwhelmed himself, as he quickly put the dinosaur out of its misery. The journey took them to Mt. Paozu, where the 4-star dragonball was found. He also met his great-great-grandfather, the one he was named after, Goku. An image of him from the afterlife told him that he didn't need the dragonballs to heal his grandmother, all he needed was just faith and love. Goku Jr. returned with his new friend, and Pan lived through her illness. He then learned several techniques from Grandma Pan, one called the Kamehameha and also how to fly, sense ki, and hide ki. And Goku was filled with a cool and calm confidence that he could do anything if he tried.
After winning the tournament, that feeling only grew in Goku, and he had a slight edge of arrogance to himself. He had wanted to see Vegeta again. He was the only other person that provided the challenge Goku's blood now thirsted for. But, he doubted Vegeta would ever want to see him again, and his suspicions were confirmed as Ms. Panty started showing up without him. But, one day, much to Goku's surprise Vegeta showed up with her. He wasn't very friendly to Goku, and said he was only there for a spar. Goku was more than happy to oblige.
***
As time passed the two grew to be somewhat of friends. Pahku moved to a different city, and stopped contact with Goku, as he was his only friend. When Vegeta was asked about friends, he simply replied that he didn't need them. The two never really thought of themselves friends (Vegeta would never admit it though) until their grandmothers died. They had gone through that depression together with each other. Fighting didn't seem like that big of a deal after that. They spent more time together, goofing around and playing tricks on people. They had learned from Pan that their transformation was called "Super" and they would use it to make people seem like they were going insane. Vegeta always gave the image that he was usually annoyed with Goku, and Vegeta was the brains of everything they did. He never forgave Goku for winning that tournament, and every time something made him mad, his anger would eventually lead to the match and he would vent it on Goku,
And then... oh, and then. They turned 14. They both had made it into the same high school. High School. Where their lives would officially end. The horror was about to begin...
