Unexpected Fate

Chapter 14

CMG: (recovering from the pain Clive gave her in the last chapter) Okay... I'm back. This time, I'm not on a sugar high. Anyway, let me just say that I don't own them like usual. I only own Scrix, Karis, Infr, and Clive (who's now dead because of what happened in the last chapter). Please be gentle. I'm just trying to add more each day, but it's very difficult after being up until 3 in the morning the night before. (listening to midi of Saikyou no Fusion) So, here we go once again. This song rocks!

Scrix: You're one crazy kid. (hits CMG)

In the weeks that followed, Goku and Bardock trained hard to get used to their transformation in their Super Saiya-jin form. When Porunga tried to bring them back to Earth, Goku refused since he was busy trying to learn Instant Transmission that his father, Bardock already learned while he was still injured. After that, he learned it and one day, they decided to go out into space to train on a barren planet far from Yardrat.

"Be careful out there, Goku," said Irn. "Freeza's men are out there somewhere and if you both get caught, the universe will be at stake."

"Don't worry," said Goku. "We'll be fine. There's two of us and two of them, right dad?"

"Yes, but we should be still weary," said Bardock. "King Cold is still a threat to us since he's almost equal in Freeza's power."

The two disappear and land on a barren planet. Immediately, the two charge up and start sparring against each other. Bardock had the upper hand since he had more experience that Goku himself didn't have.

"Ha! You think I'm going down that easy, old man!" said Goku as he lands a punch in Bardock's face.

"You little whelp! I'm about the same age as you," said Bardock as he fires a blast at him. "I'm old enough to be your twin brother!"

"You wish," said Goku as he deflects the blast and suddenly stops fighting.

"What's wrong?" said Bardock. "Are you starting to think I'm right about being your twin brother since I'm about your-?"

"No dad," said Goku. "I sense Vegeta."

"Vegeta?!" said Bardock. "Wasn't he on Earth?"

"Yes, but I think he might have taken one of Bulma's spaceships and decided to train," said Goku.

"Should we go back to Earth with him?" said Bardock.

"No, not today," said Goku. "We still have some training to do and I don't want the Earth to get blown up by our power. Let's go back to Yardrat for now and rest."

"Right," said Bardock. "We better go."

"Wait, I might as well slow Vegeta down a bit," said Goku as he picks up a giant rock and flings it at him and they both teleport away quickly.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"So, did you two enjoy your training?" said Irn. "At least you didn't get hurt as bad as you did the last time you went and trained in the middle of space."

"We almost got caught by Vegeta," said Bardock. "That arrogant bastard would had hauled our asses back to Earth if he caught us somehow." Bardock mentally added as he sneered, 'He's probably still trying to become a Super Saiya-jin. That prick.'

"How come you didn't go back?" said Ethr as he enters the room.

"We aren't ready and we still have some more training to do before we face Freeza and King Cold," said Bardock.

"But first, can I have some food?" said Goku as his stomach started growling very loudly. Bardock and the Yardratians face vault.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Well, thanks for taking care of us," said Goku as he shakes Ethr's hand

"May you both be successful on your journey and defeat the evil overlords that are threatening our universe," said Ethr as Goku climbs into the repaired spaceship.

"I've already set the coordinates," said Bardock. "We'll be back on Earth in 4 days."

"Great," said Goku. 'I just hope that dad and I can stop Freeza now that he's stronger.'

The spaceships hummed with life as they took off. In seconds, Bardock and Goku were flying through the planet's atmosphere as the life support systems kicked in. Bardock leaned back in his chair as he closed his eyes.

"Kakarot," said Bardock.

"Yes dad?" said Goku.

"After all of this is over, I hope I get to meet your mate," said Bardock. "She has no idea what a hell of a son you've raised."

"Well, to be truthful," said Goku, "I never trained Gohan how to fight. Piccolo did and he's the one you should be thanking."

"Oh," said Bardock. "So, what's Earth like?"

"Earth is a very peaceful planet," said Goku. "There aren't many people who are like us or any of my friends who died when Nappa and Vegeta killed them almost a year ago. Most of them are unaware of the power that is sleeping inside of them. The people on the planet are humans. My son is part-human, part Saiya-jin and I guess that's were my soft nature came from."

"I knew it," said Bardock. "You've been with those humans so long that you've gotten soft."

"Hey," said Goku in a sarcastic voice, "most of my friends are human and I've learned how to fight thanks to them. Plus, we've defended our planet from people who've tried to destroy or conquer it a few times."

"Hm, I guess you're loyal to your planet," said Bardock. "If that's your home and if your friends live on it. I wonder if I'll become as soft as you if I go there?"

"It depends if you're wanting to become soft," said Goku as he chuckles.

"Hey," said Bardock a bit angry. "I am not going to be soft, you hear me?"

"Yeah, yeah," said Goku. "Keep telling yourself that."

"Don't make me come over there and kick your sorry ass," said Bardock.

"I'd like to see you try and fit your ass inside this cockpit," said Goku. "I'm squished as it already is and you should know how that feels."

Goku laughs as Bardock curses in Saiya-go. Soon, the two Saiya-jin fall asleep, as the spacepods continue their trip to Earth. Little did they know of the danger that lies ahead when they get back. Will they be strong enough to stop it? Or will fate send another to save the day? Find out next time!
