A/N: The first few chapters are basically fill in's for the story.. I know how we all hate them, but they have to be done. Also, because I dont have the perfect program to upload my documents into FF.Net, I have no control over the formatting of the story. Sorry.

The Jade Princess: Chapter 1

Away from civilization in the 439 mountain area, Chichi cleans her unpretentiant household, while her 11 year old son, Gohan studies outside in the bright, blue, sunny day. Next to him in a simple crib, sits a 4 and a half month old Goten. Content with his Glowworm and plastic keys, Goten doesn't notice his brothers sudden interest in the tiny speck in the sky. As the speck grew viable, Gohan's trepidation passed as he recognized who it was.

"Oohayoo Baba-san," Gohan called out getting up from his desk, awaiting Baba's decent from the sky. Upon hearing his brother's voice, Goten curiously took note of the strange looking woman sitting on a floating ball. "Watcha doin' here Baba?" Gohan asked as Baba Floated at a comfortable conversational height.

"I'm here to speak to your mother." The consternated witch replied in a very unamiable manor. A bit shocked by her reaction, Gohan meekly pointed to the house. Both Gohan and Goten watched in confusion as Baba floated towards the house and entered with out knocking. The two confused boys looked at each other and shrugged.

Being the young and curious boy he was, Gohan picked Goten up from his crib and walked towards the kitchen window. Crouched low, Gohan silently listened to the conversation taking place on the other side of the wall.

Humming to herself, Chichi bustled around the house, doing what housework that was needed to be done. Things were certainly peaceful now, thanks to her husband and son. Sighing in memory of her diseased husband a look of grief was placed on her face. She thought of the memories they had together and a single tear rolled down her cheek. Sucking it up she continued her work. It's ok to miss him, but I shouldn't grieve. I have a new baby to look after and love now. SLAM The sound of the front door slamming brought her out of her thoughts. Seconds later a voice called out. "Chichi, I need to speak to you."

Scowl in place and hands on hips, Chichi went to greet her guest. "Who do you think you are! Barging in to my house unannounced and demanding my attention?"

"Chichi, your pregnant!"

Shocked and confused, our capricious Chichi went into a hysteric fit of laughter. "Hahaha, that's funny. Ok, I'm in a good mood now, what is it you want?"

Baba, confused with the fact herself, didn't know how to explain. "No, really. Your pregnant." Seeing the sincere look in the woman's eyes, Chichi went into another fit of hysterics. "What do you mean? How can I bee Pregnant?"

Gohan's eyes were budging to the point of exploding. "Mom, pregnant? But how?" Goten oblivious to the seriousness of the matter giggles at the strange look on his brothers face and tugged at Gohan's hair affectionately.

Under the other woman's glare, Baba uncharacteristically fidgeted and stuttered trying to explain things, she herself didn't understand. "Well, you see. I was looking around in my crystal ball, and I saw and image that said you were pregnant."

"Humph, your ball must be defective. I just gave birth to Goten about 4 months ago." This was the last straw for the old witch. No one, ever, questions her prized ball or her ability to see through it. "Who are you to say my ball is defective?!" Baba with newly gained arrogance yelled boiling with rage. "My ball is never wrong. In any way, I'm a witch, not a psychic hotline!"

Not liking how the conversation was going, Gohan, deciding to be the only adult, decided to interfere. Plus, he really wanted to know why his mother was pregnant.

##&##

After the much futile explanation from Baba, it was clear that she was hiding something. She had seen more than the pregnancy of Chichi. She had seen something she wished not to say. Deciding not to press the matter any more, both Gohan and Chichi accepted the news, knowing the baby'd fit right in, will all the strange things this particular group of people has seen and done.

A/N: Ok.. First of all, this was not intended to be a cheesy intro to my own character. Their is a reason why I haven't stated the mystery behind the birth of my character. With out the mystery.. there would be no story.

Thanx.,
