Gok and Shorty, still unaware of whom Goten and Trunks were, were immediately on guard and attacked, protecting Cale while he healed slowly. Gok went for Goten and Shorty went for Trunks. They were evenly matched and soon both pairs were worn out but Gok and Shorty had a reason for fighting, and they didn't. They had determination on their side and soon forced Goten and Trunks into a retreat, they both rested an hour or so, but then they had to move.

Warily together they picked up Cale's limp form and dragged/carried him to a different cave a ways away. Suppressing their Ki so they wouldn't be found, they rested some more. Gok went hunting and the two ate wild boar meet, half cooked. They got Cale to eat some, but he threw it up later that night so they had to cook it all the way from then on. Shorty found a spring and they forced it down Cale's throat, he kept that down. After a few days of being left alone, Cale ventured to his legs, and eventually outside. Unbeknownst to them, they were being watched from Kami's lookout. The Z-warriors were shocked to see such a young boy in such a beat up state, everyone that is but Vegeta, who noticed small bands around their wrists.

When they made another attempt to see the boys, they all decided two at a time would be best right now; Cale stopped them from attacking when he walked out of the cave.

"What do you want, leave us alone, were good as dead anyway," He growled,

"Not while you're my son," Seeasa growled, walking boldly forward to check up on her 'Little boy'. Gok and Shorty tensed, but Cale was already being checked over,

"Don't have a mum or da," he growled, her touch somehow soothing, like a mother trying to calm a child. Cale's head nodded forward and rested slightly on Seeasa's shoulder. Seeasa smiled a bit,

"Yes you do, and were it, now what are those bands on your wrists for, and Goten and Trunks want to see their sons again, especially Trunks, he wants to see how strong Shorty got," Seeasa smiled,

"I have a dad?" Shorty asked, surprised,

"So do you Gok, or I should say, Goku Jr." Kovu laughed at the boy's face.

"I haven't been called that sense Cale dubbed me Gok," Gok made another face but sat down next to Cale and Seeasa. Cale was lightly dozing while his mother checked over his splinted arm and bandaged limbs. When a soft snoring issued from his mouth, Shorty was surprised to find him sleeping like a baby.

"He needs to see Dende, he's got quite a few fractured rips, what happened to him?" Seeasa asked, as Kovu picked up his son, or tired to. As soon as Seeasa moved, Cale snapped awake,

"What happened?" he asked, he had dropped into a fighting stance, a really sloppy one,

"Nothing, you just dozed for a bit," Seeasa said calmly. Cale looked at her a moment, then his mind started to work again, he nodded and abruptly turned and headed for the cave,

'Tell um to come back later,' Cale grumbled sleeply, 'My heads not on right,'

"Come back later, Cale's not feeling well, and besides, we gotta go hunt," Gok quickly slipped into the trees, Shorty soon following. Seeasa looked worried for a moment but Kovu reassured her,

"Hes a saiya-jin, he'll make it though the night, sides, I sure if we asked really nicely, Piccolo will send down a sensu bean so he can get healed,"

"But he won't eat it! Like us when we first came here, as you know, we thought everything they gave us was poisoned, then again, we didn't have enough sense to get out of the house in the first place."

"He'll be fine, now lets go before Shorts in the bushes over their starts to let lose his Ki bomb which is in his hand," Kovu coaxed Seeasa into the air. They headed off to Kami's lookout, which was near by because Corren's tower was right underneath it and Corren's tower was just a few miles away...

Cale was better then next day, and he even went hunting for breakfast and took last watch. He was Ki blasting the boar when two females he didn't know landed near by.

"Are Shorts and Goku Jr. here?" The blue haired one asked.

"Who wants to know?" Cale asked, getting on his defense quickly.

"Were their mothers and we would like to see our sons, now!" Pan growled, Bra nodded her head in agreement.

"Go away, we don't know you, leave before I blast you into the next dimension," Cale said simply, Pan went pale but managed to say,

"I won't leave until I see Goku Jr." Pan growled,

"And I refuse to leave until I get to see Shorts." Bra added,

"Hold on a moment," Cale said with false sweetness, he walked over to the cave,

'Play along guys, to annoying females are here claiming to be your mothers, there is no Goku Jr. or Shorts here K?' Cale warned,

'K' They responded sleeply,

"Okay, out of the two guys in here, are there are...Whats your last name?" Cale asked,

Pan growled and Bra was itching to pull out her frying pan. "Son Pan and Briefs Bra,"

"Is there a Briefs Shorts, or Son Goku Jr.?"

"NO! NOW SHUT UP CALE!" They shouted together, sleeply,

"You don't have to yell!" Cale shouted back,

"See, no Shorts, no Goku Jr." Cale bit back, letting lose a Ki bomb at their feet, they jumped back and into the air, flying away.

"Thanks for getting rid of them, I'm not ready to face the...frying pan..." Gok shuddered at he memory from three days before when they had been fighting the two.

"Me either," Shorty said, nodding his head the three sat down to breakfast...

Up on the lookout all of the males were roaring with laughter and the females were already gripping their frying pans menacingly.

"I can blame um," Gohan said, grinning at Videl. Immediately Videl's heart melted as he kissed her gently. The frying pan disappeared and the two embraced, watching the three eat. The others weren't as lucky as Gohan and got whacked several times before they pulled themselves together.

"I still don't understand those frying pans!" Seeasa said, using Ki blasts on Kovu instead of the frying pan.

"You have an effective way of control your man, you don't need to get it, but just in case your curious, Frying Pans keep husbands, children, and others inline," Bulma explained. Bulma had one long streak of gray, which was very fashionable nowadays, on the side of her head. The guys roared with laughter then looked down at the small group. Piccolo suddenly walked into the clearing and the three were immediately on guard.

"Are they always like this?" Bra asked, however, Vegeta, Goten, Trunks, Seeasa, and Kovu were silent as they watched events unfold. The others noticed the serious expressions on their faces and wondered what was going on in their heads...

"Who are you?" Cale asked, getting into a fighting stance. Piccolo, without a word, walked forward raised a hand and held it in front of Cale. Before Cale could move, he was healed and his clothes looked like they were bran new. Cale stumbled back a few feet, shock on his face as he watched the green man smirk and take off.

"What was that about?" Gok asked, as Shorty examined Cale,

"I don't know but Cale, you're fully healed! We can spar now!" Shorty called out, shock clear in his voice.

"I really wish we didn't have to blow up this damned planet, I wish I had never been born!" Cale growled, kicking a rock, unaware of the shocked looks of the eavesdropping on the lookout. Seeasa, Goten, Trunks, and Kovu however, were not shocked. They knew what it was like to purge when they didn't want to.

"But there is no way we can get out of this alive! If they are our parents, how are we gonna defeat them? They are many we are few. We have to kill our own parents? And then what? Go back to Ice? I'm sorry, but this is the first time he had given us this much freedom all together, and frankly I like my freedom with you guys. I want to keep it, I'd rather die before I go back there." Gok bit out,

"And how do you suppose we get past these bands huh? I'm the smartest person within four thousand galaxies and I still can't get them off!" Shorty said, equally passionate about their situation.

"I know, but you'll keep trying, with that technology you stole, wasn't something in there about field disrupters? I mean, if we can block the signal form the main ship..." Cale quickly drew a diagram in the dirt, " then they wouldn't be able to control our bodies. But," Cale drew a few lines from one point to another, and then to three stick figures in the dirt, "That would leave us open for mental attack. Now, if we could get the bands off without us exploding with them, then that will be all good, but we would have to first kill Ice. Ice, as you know, can take over our bodies at will..." Cale suddenly went silent, his body fell forward onto the diagram and his mind went blank.

"CALE?!" Gok and Shorty yelled at the same time, they knew what was happening. Cale's body stood up, Ice unable to read memories from long distances away, was blissfully unaware of their plotting, they saluted to Cale's body, standing at attention,

"Its good to see this freedom has not gone to your heads," Ice said though Cale,

"No sir," Shorty and Gok mumbled, glad no one saw this, it was humiliating enough to have someone invade your body, especially a warrior like Cale, Cale would be grumpy for a while.

"Good, then, before my time runs out in this body, I am warning you now, you'd better attack soon...What are you waiting for?"

"Cale to heal, Ice," Gok sneered, quicker the Gok could see, Cale's hand snapped forward and encircled Gok's neck and lifted him off the ground.

"Hold your tough boy," (A/N: I don't know if that's the right word!) Cale fought for control over his body and finally won, he dropped a blue Gok as he crumpled to the ground, Gok recovered quickly, but Cale was a little slower regaining his senses. When he did, he redrew the diagram then went to the nearby pool of rainwater that was turning into a lake. He used his Ki to warm the water up. He quickly stripped and washed his skin vigorously.

Kovu had not seen something so humiliation sense his time with Freiza, Kovu took off and landed on the rocks near the small pool of rainwater.

"What do you want?" Cale growled,

"To talk," Kovu said, laying on the rock and looking at the sky.

"So talk then leave," Cale growled. He grabbed some sand and rubbed his arms with it, trying to get clean. He felt really dirty after the Ice thing.

"The feeling will leave soon," Kovu said,

"What feeling?" Cale asked,

"Of being dirty, what you're doing now, I was like that all the time Freiza used me as a communicator. I hated it, its why I started working alone," Kovu replied.

"Don't know what you're talking about," Cale denied,

"Don't like to me boy, I know what happened, I saw it,"

"So you've turned to spying on us now?" Cale asked, Kovu knew he had made a mistake but decided to tell the truth.

"If you hadn't seen your only child sense he was about three and a half, wouldn't you want to see as much of him as possible?" Kovu asked,

"No, If the brat was that stupid to get kidnapped at that young of an age, the child shouldn't live," Cale said, referring to his poorly led life.

"I don't feel the same way..." Kovu said, looking at his son,

"Well I do, now if you're done talking, I'd like to finish my bath," Cale tuned out the man until he finally left, Cale sighed, this would be harder then he thought...
