Here's the next chapter but.

First things first - I got to thank everyone who has risen to the challenge-

Moonbay- Thank you for your kind words, I will try to follow my instincts and do so to the best of my ability.

Cathowl- Thank you for your kind offer of support, I may take up your offer if I get stuck once more. And I have been reading your stories, you are very talented at psychological portrayals of the Sayajins. You have inspired me fully

Professor Authordude- I will keep your advice in mind and hope to keep Goku in character as best as I can. Thank you.

Jetforce 9000- Again I will be mindful of your advice when I write. Thank you.

CLeO- Your advice is appreciated but I will probably stay away from the Almighty Frying Pan Of Doom. It seems a bit over used and tired, not that it's not a great way to tame the Sayajins and is a very humorous addition to most stories.

Jennifer A. Kane- Thank You for your help.

Thank you everyone who has been reviewing this. Reviews are great and knowing you guys and gals read my words. If you finish with this read Together my other Dragonball Z story- Bardock and Letta (Raddittzu and Goku's mom) have a really rough time getting together and an even worse breakup at Letta's father's request. It's a One-Shot so far.

Now here's the show.







How Do You Know?

Chapter 17: Talking





"Okay, so you put the seven magic Dragonballs together and a Dragon God appears and grants any wish?" asked Raddittzu with more than a little bit of skepticism. Kami nodded serenely as they watched the sun go down.

"That's right Raddittzu. This is really quite funny." Said the god as the red- gold orb dipped below the horizon.

"What?" asked Raddittzu, " The fact that you created seven magical wish granting things?"

"No, the fact a god and a mortal who has killed more than my demon counter part can be on such good terms. Its just very odd."

"Yeah, I got to agree. It is weird a god could be a friend to me. You become friends with many of us mortals?"

"Nah. Can't stand too many of you guys. You're different though, maybe being a star hopping serial killer does that to a guy?"

"I don't know, there are plenty of my fellow killers who you would absolutely hate. Maybe you are just my friend because I beat up Piccolo." Suggested Raddittzu with a bitter smile. Kami laughed and nodded.

"That could be it. Well, only Mr. Popo and you have the immense honor of being the God of Earth's friend."

"What about my brother?" Asked Raddittzu. Kami looked at him surprised.

"No offence, but Goku was just a student to me. He is a nice guy but to cheerful for my tastes. Besides he's too easy to manipulate, it took a lot of magic to get you to sleep even when your body needed it. It's nice to know I can't totally control you even if I wanted to." Said Kami with a grin. Raddittzu laughed and nodded.

"Thanks but that's not what I meant. What about bringing my dead brother to life?"

"Oh." Kami smiled sheepishly at the Sayajin, " Well, Shenron and I just got a major power up from the Gods of the North and West sides of the Universe. Seems Goku has been eating North Kai out of house and home and has been terrorizing Heaven due to someone's little hints." Said the god with a devilish grin.

"I see." Raddittzu said with a smirk.

"Well, anyways. The normal rules are gone, my godly magical powers are increased as you can see." Said the god with a bright smile. Raddittzu smiled back and motioned for him to continue, "Instead of that one year limitation with revivals, I can bring back any soul as long as the body is intact and in good health. And it just so happens I healed and kept Goku's body in a magical suspended state just in case. I just need to summon Shenron, he's the key to bring Goku back."

"But you can't until you have all the Dragonballs." Said Raddittzu guessing the rest, "Somehow I or Shashii have the last one or two you need."

"Only one. Shashii had it on his person as you left. I can feel that it still exists but is too far away for me to bring it magically to Earth." Said the god. Raddittzu frowned.

"I think I know what it is now. Small, fist sized, orb, orange in color with four stars within it that seemed to glow?" He asked. Kami nodded.

"It will take six months for me to get it and return. I don't want to leave Shashii like that, you understand."

"I do. But this is the best way for you to make peace with your brother, I wish there was another way but I can't find it." Raddittzu nodded and closed his eyes.

"You are a good friend. Watch over him while I am gone?" Asked Raddittzu. Kami frowned.

"Of course I will but you need to tell him first. Besides he needs you to help him deal with his mother. She's a vengeful overprotective mother who scares the shit out of everyone."

"Sounds like me. Okay, but you're coming too. I'm going to need some divine intervention to even hope to survive." Said Raddittzu with a chuckle. Kami frowned and paled.

"Hell no. She's scary." Raddittzu stood and pulled the god to his feet unceremoniously. Grumbling, Kami stooped to pick up his gnarled staff and glared at his new found friend. "Not fair."

"Who said life was fair?" Quipped Raddittzu with a smirk.

"I hate you."

"Liar. Besides as God of Earth you are technically responsible for everything that happens here, like Goku's death. You're going to help me survive this little adventure."

"Fine, but first sign of a threat to my health I'm gone."

"That's all I can ask." Said Raddittzu as they vanished.





Short. I know but hey, just because you all helped doesn't mean I'm going to leap into the pit of asps. I still need time to recuperate from Christmas and to get to know my inner Goku. I can write Chi Chi now but trying to find an original way to portray my favorite she-wolf is hard work and I need to get away from the A.F.P.D mode that most adopt for her. She's not a total berserker.

By the way who created the Almighty Frying Pan of Doom in the first place? And I mean who first used it in the fan fiction world not which maniacal god decided to make poor Gohan's life hell by gifting her with the one object that makes her equal with the world's strongest Sayajins.

Thanks for taking the time to read and review. Later.
