The Unexpected Fighter

Ch. 6 Happy Birthday

The last two days for Ian and Gohan were fun, starting off with Ian and Gohan exploring every inch of the underwater deeps, they found treasure and Ian even found a sword that was made out of some strange black metal that was from as far as he can see was indestructible even when he hit it! But the sword was more than just that, it was engraved with many designs and to put it simply, was beautiful to look at. But now it as time for there birthday party to get underway. Today was there eleventh birthday! So they didn't get much sleep last night from all the excitement. And because Chichi wanted to cut Ian's hair to make it look better, that incident left all the scissors in the house blasted to dust and a big lump on Ian's head as a result from the "Frying-pan-of-death". All in all it was a hectic day for all of them.

Now Chichi way running around the house preparing all the food because there where going to be four hungry Sayians and one hungry Barakian, so she was busy enough. Ian and Gohan where setting up the decorations and had become quite the trouble makers in there time together, so as such they had set up a few "goodies" around for the guests'.

When Chichi had at one time insisted that Ian not bother Gohan in his studies Ian had gone strait up and helped Gohan finish in record breaking time, of course Chichi didn't know. As it turned out Ian was very smart naturally, so was Gohan and this ensued to where they came up with the craziest prank devises. Ian had a natural mechanical building ability and with his great speed he could build a dragon-radar in five minutes! Anyways, as the party time came closer Ian and Gohan had finished setting up there "surprises" for the guests' and set up the decorations and where now relaxing by the river slowly drifting off to sleep. Goku was not surprisingly going to get everyone, with Instant Transmission. [A.N. - I'll just call it I.T. for short from now on.]

"Hey, Ian?" asked Gohan.

"Huh?" responded Ian sleepily.

"Do you remember anything about your past yet?" Gohan said.

"No, sorry Gohan I don't, but I'm pretty shore I don't want to anymore anyways." Said Ian.

As they drifted off to sleep just as Goku came up next to them and laid down. Looking over there serine faces he noticed that Ian's faces wasn't.

(Maybe I should wake him up?) Watching Ian a bit more he decided against it.

As time passed Goku suddenly remembered what he came to get them for, the party! As softly as he could he woke them up Ian woke up fast and took no pity on the sleeping sayian next to him.

"GOHAN! WAKE UP!!"

With a jump Gohan woke up looking around wildly, finally stopping on the source of the laughter he spotted Ian. Getting up Gohan looked around confused before he sensed the presence of the rest of the gang at his house and then it hit him.

"THE PARTY!!!" and with that Gohan soared up into the sky fallowed closely behind by Ian and Goku.

Gohan looked back to his companions and signed to himself, he was almost late for HIS birthday party! Ian suddenly flew up to Gohan and flashed him the control panel. They both smiled mischievously at the thought of there pranks. As they neared the house, they noticed that only Vegeta, Trunk and Bulma, along with baby Trunks and the OX-King where there. The party it's- self was moved outside, so as to accommodate more guests. Touching down just outside of everyone, the guests' looked up and rushed over to the birthday boys, well they didn't "all" go, Vegeta stayed behind, just not wherein his usual annoyed look.

"Happy birthday you two!" cheered Bulma as she hugged both of them at the same time. Ian made a sound affect as if he where being choked, so she let go. Gohan did something no-one expected, he snickered.

"Uh, Gohan you ok?" asked Goku a little worried.

"Huh?" Gohan only looked dumfounded.

"He picked that up from me, sorry." Said Ian.

"OOOoooo! Alrighty then, lets party!" Cheered Goku as the party started up.

Then Chichi brought out the food, with the help of Bulma. Carrying the huge loads they placed them down on the reinforced table. Goku, Vegeta, and Trunks all tried to get some food before it was all placed out and for it the three got watched once by there mates and mother, upside there heads. Ian and Gohan both thought this was funny and broke into fits of laughter. For this Vegeta chased them around the house for a while, only when he got so ticked off that he started to shoot Ki blasts did Goku and Mari Trunks intervene and stop him.

When all was ready they sat down to eat, all four Sayians and Barakian dug in at a pace that said, Yum! and I'm hungry! Bulma and Chichi where talking about Ian and what such a good boy he was, and how he was good at this and listened to whenever he was spoken to, that sort of stuff. Bulma was only half listening until Ian jumped up from the table and ran inside, everyone was confused but when Ian came back outside carrying a small watch he handed it to Bulma and went back to eating. Everyone looked confused at the contraption, Bulma strapped it to her wrist and pressed the only button on the watch, immediately a small 3-D globe that of earth was set up, spinning slowly and eight tiny dots appeared on it flashing every so often, only one of them was red and the others where yellow. Bulma looked in awe at the devise that Ian gave her.

"Ian where did you get this?!" asked Bulma who the hole time never took her eyes off the very detailed globe. Grinning he told them.

"I made it." He said casually with his grin quickly becoming a smile.

"WHAT?!?!" yelled Bulma at the top of her lunges, which resulted in all alien and half aliens present to cover there ears and wince in pain.

"Geesh Bulma, keep it down a bit, please?" Ian asked holding his ears.

"Ian, I'm serious, where on earth did you get it?!" Bulma half yelled in a serious tone.

"Geesh, can't you believe me when I say that I made the damned thing?!?!" Ian almost yelled, but quickly slapped his hand over his mouth and looking frightfully at Chichi. She had he "Frying-Pan-of-Doom" in her hand and was ready to pounce on him for his language. But as sheer luck would have it, Goku and his dumb-ass self just decided to speak up.

"Wow Ian that one hell of an invention!" he said slightly awed by its shear. detailedness. [a.n. - is that even a word?]

This prompted chichi to forget about Ian completely, thank Kami. Dende just smiled as Ian now owed him a favor.

Ian knew this, but what could be worse that Chichi with her frying-pan? He couldn't think of anything right now so he gave up.

Gohan looked on in disbelief as his mother continually swung her "frying- pan-of-doom" at his father who was at the moment, running for dear life. All the while his mother somehow keeping up. Vegeta and Trunks where on the ground laughing there heads off, and right over one of Ian & Gohan's 'presents'. Gohan got a look of sheer happiness. Ian noticed the look and quickly passed the controller to him which he caught and hid behind his back, they both where backing up slowly and only Bulma took notice. She gave Ian a look that said "explain now!" Ian however just motion his head her to move, she caught on quickly being the brilliant person she was and also walked away from the two fools on the ground. Just as soon as Bulma was far enough away from there present, Gohan hit #5 button on the control switch.

Goku was in a daze when the button was pushed and so didn't quite understand what was happening before Chichi swung her all mighty "Frying- Pan-O-Doom" over his head one last time and was instantly unconscious. Looking over at where the laughing and giggling Vegeta once were she only found two white figures, Vegeta and Trunks were covered in white foam. Ian, Gohan, Bulma, and even baby Trunks were all laughed like there was no tomorrow.

For the rest of the day Ian & Gohan's pranks were deployed, they still received there presents but only after they agreed to help clean it all up. Chichi thought this would stop them but they didn't relent until they where all used.

For presents, Ian received a capsule GR room from the Briefs, a watch specially made for Ian that instantly turned his cloths into his Sayian armor and it read time. From the Son's he received text books, obviously from Chichi, some heaver under cloths from Goku and from Gohan he received a Playstation 2, plus Armored Core 2 and a memory card.

Gohan received his own Capsule Cabin from the Briefs and his own watch which was exactly the same as Ian's, only his sayian armor was blue and white. From his family, he got new books from his mother and heaver underclothes from his father. Now from Ian he got the exact same thing he gave to Ian, Playstation 2 with ArmoredCore2 but instead of a memory card he got an i-link cable.

All in all the day was great, well except for where the had to help clean up. At the end of the day the Son family and Ian stayed up and listened too old stories. The Briefs were brief in the visit and only stayed for the party before saying goodbye. But other than that, Ian got to know more about Gohan's old life and what Goku and Chichi did before they met and after, in the end Gohan was asleep, knowing most of the story and so was Chichi. Goku stopped on the marry-go-round of his head and before Ian could ask a question, Goku fell right to sleep.

Ian of course was a bit peeved about that so instead of going to sleep since he decided to try out his GR room. Walking outside and shutting the door softly, he made his way into the forest.

Now you know when you forget something and it returns to you it hits at the most unexpected of moments, it happens like that to all of us.

Right now all Ian knew was "his" truth. Walking towards the edge of a cliff he looked over, a flash of light in his inner eye and a few glimpses of his past flew by him, nothing to comprehend but enough not to want to know more. Shaking off the images that spun in his head he threw the GR capsule on the ground, when the dust settled a huge dome type house was sitting on the ground. It was about as tall as a two story and as wide as a basket-ball court; the door was a big hatch. Opening up the door and walking inside the automatic lights turned on; closing the door behind himself he looked around.

It was fairly large, on the right were a dozen bots, to the left were a few towels and too the front of him was the control panel. Approaching it he guessed that they were very simple controls made for Goku. Deciding on setting it to 30x earth's gravity he tensed as the gravity hit him, starting with a complex Kata and finishing with a few Ki manipulations he turned off the gravity.

Walking back outside and closing the hatch he noticed it was almost dawn, sniffing the air he smelled the smell of freshly cooked bacon. Over the time in the Time room he happened to like bacon like some people did chocolate.

Rushing back into the house he went for the food, instincts taking over. But, was met with a frying pan in the face and it was still hot! That chased him off back out the door and strait into the river.

Back inside the house Gohan had just woken up and saw what had just transpired, so wisely chose not to take a chance. Unfortunately Goku didn't, so rushing at the food he was dealt with the same way as Ian. Ouch!

The rest of the day went smoothly, even when Ian and Goku hadn't come back. Gohan had to go look for them and eventually found both of them hiding behind bunch of trees eating three large fish, stepping out from behind the trees both Ian and Goku jumped and hit a tree limb and then the ground with a thump when Gohan had coughed.

"Were sorry Chichi, please don't hit us with the frying pan!" said Goku, his head still on the ground.

Ian had decided to look up and when he found it only to be Gohan looking abashed at his own father. Deciding to get up slowly he got an evil idea. Mimicking Chichi's voice he spoke.

"Goku! No food for a month!!" Ian yelled using Chichi's voice.

Gohan was almost breaking down in fits of laughter as Goku pleaded for "Chichi" to let him have one more chance. By now Gohan couldn't hold it in any longer, He burst out laughing and was soon fallowed by Ian how hit the ground and rolled onto his side, clutching his stomach.

Now Goku got the smart idea to look up, nowhere in site did he see Chichi. Instead he found two collapsed, laughing and giggling forms of Ian and Gohan.

"Guys, that isn't funny,!" complained Goku in a childish manner.

"Yes it is!" said Ian before lifting off the ground and towards the Son house, closely fallowed by a still giggling Gohan and a frowning Goku.



The end, for this chapter that is!
