Lost In Time

By: Auntie Godmother

Summary: A group of Saiyans--guess who!--finds themselves on Planet Earth with a crazed-like Gohan and an aged arrogant Saiyan Prince. What could possibly happen to them in the future?

AN: I'm so sorry that I haven't update for a week or so. School started and the teachers are loading us with homework! I'm not sure when I can get the chance to write more to this. Hopefully soon. Today I had time to update since I didn't go to school because I had three doctors' appointments. Don't know what the results are yet but hopefully all of them all okay--and tells the doctors what's wrong with me.

Chapter Four: Fuzzy Tails Are Not Meant to be Pulled

Goten grin at his new friends. "Isn't it cool? I use to cry as a baby when my big brother became Super because I couldn't. My mama calls me a 'little monster' when I become one."

Trunks fell backwards in defeat. Why must he be friends with a half-wit like Goten? "Goten! Do you have to say things like that? Standing in front of you are some of the last Saiyans in the universe. You can do much to learn from them."

"Are they really Saiyans?" demanded the miniature Goku.

Trunks sat up. He placed a hand behind him to support his weight while he used his right hand to point to Bardock's waist. A furry cinnamon tail moved slightly as if it could help but moved its tip. "Did you notice their tails?"

Goten walked to the nearest Saiyan who was named Shugesh. Quick as lightning, Goten reached out to grab the tail. The heavy Saiyan went down with a whimper. Goten looked down in surprise. He was still holding the tail in the air.

Behind the bushes, Vegeta winced as he imagined how much damage Goten had caused the other Saiyan with the tail pulling. Even Gohan felt some empathy for the Saiyan. Going through human puberty, his tail had sprouted on his lower back. Upon spotting it, Goten had pulled on it. Gohan still wasn't sure how long he had been out after that. All he knew was that he had woken up several hours later with his recently cut tail lying on the bedside table.

Trunks jumped up quickly and snatched the tail out of Goten's hand. He let it fall down onto its owner. Bardock, Torah, Borgos, and Fasha went as fast as they could to their fallen comrade.

"Shugesh?"

"Yeah?" he strained to say pass his pain.

Fasha waited until he opened his eyes before she kicked him in the side. "That was stupid of you to let yourself be open to attack!"

"Boy," he croaked out as an excuse.

Fasha kicked him again. "That's no justification for it!" Fasha turn to glare at the spiky hair boy. She reached down and jerked his head up from under his jaw. "And you! That trick was even low for a Saiyan warrior in an Anything-Goes Match."

A tear rolled down his face as his lips quivered. "Trick? I didn't mean to hurt him! I just wanted to see his tail. I don't gots a tail," he wailed. Goten plopped down to cry.

Trunks glared at her as he went to comfort his friend. "You don't have to yell at him! He doesn't realize that it hurts a Saiyan to pull their tail. I demand, as your Royal Crown Prince, that you will go without food for three days."

Fasha and the other three standing Saiyans laughed. Trunks was livid that they didn't wouldn't follow his orders. He was their prince no matter what his hair color and style were. Trunks snapped his fingers. "If you won't obey my orders, who would you obey? My father, perhaps? I'm sure Prince Vegeta wouldn't be too happy to learn you wouldn't obey his son's commands."

Borgos, easily the tallest out of the brunch, placed his hand on his hip. "Prince Vegeta isn't old enough to have father you, half-breed. And last time we checked, the Prince was safely on Planet Vegeta or with Lord Frieza on his ship. He couldn't have arrive before us on this Planet Ear-th and had time to spawn a boy your age."

Vegeta and Gohan took this as their cue. "As a matter of fact, I've been living on this planet for years now."

The group gasped in shook. Bardock was the first to bow low to the royal warrior. He placed a fist to his heart and looked down. Borgos, Fasha, and Torah quickly copied their commander's movements. Shugesh painfully rolled to his knees and placed a fist to his heart. Locks of his midnight black hair covered his pained expression.

Vegeta smirked. It had seemed forever since anyone formally bowed to him like this. He had tried to teach Goten to do so but Gohan had beaten the crap out of him went he found out what he was up to.

"Get up!" growled Gohan. "Get up now, all of you!"

Goten stopped crying to stare up frightening at his older brother. He had never seen his brother act like this. He wiped tears away, scared his brother might yell at him. He fisted a hand into Trunks' shorts.

Trunks, too, was afraid what Gohan might do. He could still remember all of those tales about Gohan fighting Cell from his parents and friends--even once by his future self. Gohan was downright scary then and now.

Vegeta waved a hand arrogantly. "As you were."

The five Saiyans stood up. Bardock stepped forward. He started to explain that they didn't realize that the boy was of royal blood. But the teenager at his side growled at him.

"You've made my little brother cry," he remarked to the lone female Saiyan.

She raised an eyebrow at him. "And you are?"

"My name is Son Gohan," he told her as his eyes and hair started flashing.

Vegeta quickly placed an arm in front of him. "Excuse the brat. He's going through puberty. His emotions are highly unstable. And it's unfortunate for us all, his powers always increase with his emotions."

Gohan rounded on Vegeta. He punched the prince in the stomach. Vegeta toppled over holding his gut. "Why did you have to say that? Is everyone going to know I'm going through my second puberty?" he demanded.

* * * * *

ChiChi paced in front of her house. "I can't even tell what's going on!"

Bulma tried to calm her down. "Nothing will happen. Gohan and Vegeta can take care of everything. I'm sure the threat isn't that bad."

The younger woman glared at her lifetime friend. "How can you say that? I might believe you if only one of them went but both of them went! And who's that strong to take on two grown Saiyans and two little boys? Goten and Trunks could take down an army by themselves without Vegeta or even my Gohan worrying about them."

"Trunks?" Gohan's early words finally sank in. Her little boy was over there too! Bulma grabbed ChiChi's sleeve and pulled the woman behind her. "Nothing will stop be from saving my son!" she shouted.

Gohan's friends stared after the older women. Sharpener grinned at the girls. "Come on! Lets follow them. I got to see Gohan fighting."

"I don't know . . ."

Videl glanced around. "There isn't anything we can do here," she said. "I think we should follow them. They could use my help. I'm not sure how much Gohan could do. And he did just recently woke up from that concussion from gym class."

Erasa agreed. Gohan could just pass out while he's trying to punch someone. That wouldn't be good. The three quickly caught up to the worried mothers.

AN: Hey! This Friday on CTN is the Trunks Special! I've been wanting to see that for awhile now. Last Friday was the Bardock Special and I laughed at the parts they edited out.
