CHAPTER THREE: KING KIS PLACE
"Yanjarobi tell us what's going on!" Krillen asked for the hunderth time. After the battle Gokus body had disappeared, and Raditz had told them a scary message. Two sayjins even more powerful then him, were on their way to Earth! Then Yanjarobi showed up and told them NOT to wish Goku back.
The fat man chewed his cookies paciently. "Look, all you need to know is that Kami took Gokus soul to be trained in the other dimention. She needs to train so don't wish her back untill the sayjins arrive."
"And what are we to do in the mean time?" Chichi demanded.
"I don't know. Go paint your nails woman." he said turning to leave.
Chichi lashed out and grabbed him by the throat. "Listen fatty-"
"Alright!" Yanjarobi yelled wiggeling. "Kami wants you all to go to Kamis lookout to train because the two other sayjins are super powerful. Put me down you insane woman!"
Chichi dropped him. She smoothed her hair and looked at Roshi. "Me, Krillen and Yamcha will go to Kamis lookout. The rest of you need to gather the dragonballs."
"Right." Bulma said. "Say, you think we should tell Piccolo?"
"That bum?" Yanjarobi said. "Ha! Let him train where ever he wants, as long as it's far away from me."
Piccolo levitated no too far away listening. So Goku was training even in death. Thanks to that goody goody Kami the rest of the earth fighters would be working to beat the sayjins too.
He flew off towards the desert. One year. Two sayjins even stronger then Raditz would be here in one year. That doesn't give him very much time. Raditz nearly beat him even with the help of Goku. Say the rest of the human fighters trained constantly and Goku did her special training, from what he saw of Raditz, he'd need to bring up his power level quickly.
***************************************************************************
Goku looked around. There was nothing. No house no signs and no King Ki. She stood up and planted her hands on her hip. "Is this some type of bad joke?" She looked around and saw a tiny planet up in the air.
"Maybe King Ki lives on that tiny planet." she said aloud. "Here's hoping." She jumped up and reached the planet. She saw a house and a red car parked on the only street. She was about to fly to the house to see if any one was home when something pulled at her.
Zoom! She went flying down to the planets surface and crashed into the ground. She struggled to get up but found the gravity was too much. She grunted and tried again. This time she mannaged to get to her feet.
"Man, what a bad case of gravity." she grunted. She got up and set her sights on the small house. Step by step she moved slowly towards the round house. "One step at a time." she told her self. She stopped and sniffed.
Nearby was an apple tree with ripe green fruit on it. She flet and heard her stomache rummble. "I knew I smelled food!" She turned and almost fell over again. She balanced herself and walked to the tree. She tried climbing up it but slipped to the ground.
"Oo-Oo?"
Goku twisted over and saw a small brown ape staring at her. It was the first sign of life she'd seen on the planet.
"Excuse me, are you King Ki?" she asked. The ape only looked at her. She stood up at tall as she could in the gravity and bowed. "Please King Ki, I seek your training." Suddenly her belly growled again and she blushed. "Sorry. I haven't eaten anything in a while. Can I have some fruit before we start?"
"Oo-eee!" the ape said excitedly and ran up the tree. It waved an apple and droped it. Before Goku reached it, the apple went right through the ground, leaving a round crater.
"Um," she looked up to the ape. "Can you send down another one? I promise I will catch it this time." The ape shouted and shouted and dropped another one. This time she caught it, but the gravity made it weigh a ton. She fell over but held onto the fruit. She gulped it down.
She got back up and grinned at the ape Ki. "Thank you. Please now may I receive your training?"
Suddenly the ape started walking around bouncing with each step he took. He raised his arms above his head and bounced with them too. Goku shrugged and copied him. Soon her arms felt like they would fall off. That or her insides.
Goku followed the ape untill she noticed a man standing along side the road. He was a chubby blue man in black robes and specs. His antinas came out from a matching black hat. He looked at her oddly.
"I've heard of monkey see monkey do. But never see monkey do monkey." he said in a naisal voice.
"But-" Goku looked from the ape to the small man. She face went beet red. "You're King Ki?"
He nodded.
Goku blushed and laughed it off. "Sorry. My name is Goku and I came here to receive your training." She srunted from the gravity.
"You must be from Earth. So that means that the gravity on this planet is 10x your own. Try a jump. Go on, as high as you can." he said.
"Okey." Goku jumped up as hard as she could then fell back down hard. She only made it around sixty feet. King Ki looked at her and she felt embarassed. "I can do better if it wasn't for the gravity." she explained.
King Ki nodded. "Well then we need to get on with the first training excerisise then. Tch, tch. Bubbles!"
The small ape she had mistaken for King Ki earlier ran up.
"This is Bubbles." King Ki said. "He is used to the enormous gravity here. So your first job is to catch Bubbles."
"Huh?"
"Untill you concoure the gravity here, I cannot train you. Run Bubbles. Run away now."
"Wait!" Goku said. She turned and ran after the ape. Well tried to run after it. Each step was like lifting a mountain. She moved slowly after the ape all day untill her bones ached. She stopped and sat down.
She tugged off her weighted clothes, shoes and wrist bands. She got up and giggled. "Now I'll get that furry ape."
Goku spotted the brown dot of Bubbles and ran to it. Bubbles hooted and ran in the opposide direction. As soon as she got close Bubbles let out a burst of speed.
"He's got over drive." Goku said stopping. How was she going to catch it? Her belly murmmered to her letting her know it was time to eat.
"Hey, King Ki?" she asked. "Can we eat some lunch?"
"Alright. I'll cook but you do the dishes."
Chichi focused her energy in the fingers of her hands. The energy built up and her palms glowed red. She shook her hands together as if she was going to pitch a baseball and threw it. "Red Pins!!"
Hundereds of thin red neeled like peices of energy flew down to the ground of Kamis lookout. The pins went through everything. Trees, stone and Popos garden.
"Oh no! My patunias!" Popo cried out. "Chichi you are a menace to the biotanical world." He knelt down and started to try and salvage his flowers.
"Nice move Chich." Tien said flying past.
She smiled. Yamcha and Krillen spared together past her and Chotzu and Tien practiced arial manuvers. This was a perfect training ground.
For years Chichi had focused herself to become the strongest she could be. Then Goku came. Goku had power she had only dreamed of. Soon the pair had become friendly rivals. Chichi was glad in some ways Raditz had came.
Ends up Goku isn't an extrorinarily strong human, but a pitifully weak sayjin. It was almost laughable. She had strived and worked to beat Goku only to have her friend and partner killed by her own brother.
Where ever Goku was, Chichi hoped she was training hard. They were going to need her.
"Now for the next step." King Ki said.
Goku smiled as she held Bubbles in her arms. She was ready now. Whatever odd training King Ki had in mind was obviously helping. She felt stronger already.
"Gregory!" King Ki yelled. "Come meet your new training partner!"
Goku looked around for Gregory. From each side she saw no one. Then a fast flying light flew up to her. It stopped inches from her face. the light really was a medium sized cricket with big eyes and hyper.
"Hi I'm Gregory!" he said happily.
"What am I suposed to do? Fight it?" She poked it.
"Hands off!" the cricket said slapping her hand away.
King Ki laughed. "How about you explain it to her Gregory?"
"Okey." Gregory said. "You have to get this big hammer and hit me with it! But I'm faster then I look."
"You're on!" Goku said. "Where's the hammer?"
"Here you go." King Ki said passing her a large mallet. Goku grabed it then topeld over. It weighed at least four tons!
King Ki giggled. "This will help you build up speed and agility on this planet. Once you hit Gregory here, then we get to the hard stuff."
"Awww man."
Piccolo faught his tri-forms out in the woods near a waterfall. He knew two other sayjins were comming and what he saw of Raditz he needed to work up his power level.
He tossed an energy blast but his other self phased out of the way. Piccolo froze and looked around. Suddenly one grabed him from behind and held him. The other flew towards him and started to belt him senclessly.
Purple blood dripped down his face and he roared out. He increased his ki and flared it out forcing them both back. He glared at himselves.
"Round two."
Goku practiced her kicks and punches in the grass by King Kis place. All she could think about was of the up comming sayjins and how much stronger they were then her. Raditz said they were 10x more powerfull then even him.
Raditz.
She lowered her fists and stopped. She remembered how he said he didn't want to hurt her. The odd thing was she beleived him. Then what he said about her always being his little sister and him only wanting them to be a family again.
King Ki looked out his window and saw Goku just standing there. Maybe the gravity was harder for her then she thought.
"Is something wrong?" he asked walking outside.
"No." she said snapping out of whatever trance she had been in. "It's just . . ."
"Just what?"
"My brother was a sayjin too." she said facing him. "and he died because of me. See he came to Earth to get me but when he saw I hadn't killed everyone, he wanted me to destroy the place in order to redeem myself. Instead I killed him."
"Very admerable."
She turned away and clenched her fists. "Then why do I feel like dirt?" she demanded. "What type of person kills her own family?"
King Ki had no answer for that one. He felt so helpless. His best student was trembling in anger and rage and confusion.
"When I first saw Raditz, he was big and menacing. I knew he was evil, I could feel it in his ki. But I couldn't help but feel a little happy. All my life I only knew my Grampa Gohan as family. Then he died and I was alone. Sure there's Bulma, but she is always off with Yamcha. Then Chichi wants to fight and Krillen is with Roshi. They are the best friends a girl could ask for but-"
"They aren't family." King Ki finnished. "Do you really want to know whar Raditz is like?"
"Wha-what?"
"I can send a call down to King Yama and he can have Raditz sent up here. That is if his soul hasn't been reincarnated yet."
"You mean it?" Goku said with her face lighting up.
King Ki nodded. Goku picked him up and gave him a big bear hug. "Thank you!"
"Want to thank me then PUT ME DOWN!!"
She dropped him and he gasped for air. He got up muttering how no one respects their elders.
"Plus," King Ki said dusting off. "this way we can see how much you have progressed."
Raditz sat around grumpily in the H.F.I.L. He hated it here. Nothing but dust and rocks. And the food sucked.
Suddenly a short blue demon with a business suit drove up in a cart. He got out and looked down at his clip bord. He was skinny as a twig and had a horn on top of his head.
"Ahem," he said. "Are you Raditz?"
"Yeah." he said wondering what was up.
"Good, good." He wrote something down. "Mr.Raditz, it seems your sister is training up on King Kis planet and she wishes to speak to you."
"Kakarot?"
"No Goku."the man said. He looked down at his chart. "There must be some mistake."
"Goku is Kakarot!" Raditz yelled remembering what his sister had called herself back on Earth.
"Ah, I see now." the man said. He ripped off a slip on the bottom of the pad and handed it to Raditz. "Show this to Mez at the H.F.I.L. home office." He tipped his head and got into his cart. "Good-bye."
Raditz watched him drive away then looked down at the paper in his hand. So Kakarot wanted to see him. But why? He thought she hated him. He shrugged it off and flew to the home office. He walking in the front door and saw a red large demon with black think glasses stood behind the counter. He had one horn sticking out of the top of his head.
"You Mez?" Raditz asked.
The being just went on typing at the computer he was at.
"Hey you!" Raditz said louder. When he got no reply again he gritted his teeth. "Yo red dude! ARE YOU MEZ!" Raditz was at his wits end and was about to blast the entire place when he saw a sign.
PLEASE RING BELL FOR ASSISTANCE.
Raditz groaned and rang the bell.
"May I help you?" the red demon asked turning to him.
"You Mez?"
"Yes."
"Here." Raditz said shoving the slip across the desk. Mez picked up the slip and read it.
"Goku? Is she black haired in an orange & blue gi? Really cute?" Mez asked.
"Yeah why?" Raditz asked annoyed that he called his sister cute.
Mez quickly signed the paper and handed it back. "Go see Goz at the airport. He'll send you on your way. Bye!" He slammed down a curtian that said CLOSED.
Goku stood on top of a large pole holding perfectly still. The goal was to keep balanced. The past four times she had fallen off and with this gravity it wasn't that smart to do it five times.
A sudden jolt shook the pole and Goku started to fall. She grabed on to the edge tightly.
"Hey what's the big deal!?" she shouted down. Smirking up at her was Raditz.
"Yanjarobi tell us what's going on!" Krillen asked for the hunderth time. After the battle Gokus body had disappeared, and Raditz had told them a scary message. Two sayjins even more powerful then him, were on their way to Earth! Then Yanjarobi showed up and told them NOT to wish Goku back.
