Chapter 4
My Father, Prince of all Saiyans

"Uh, my head. Gohan!" I yelled sitting up. I was in my room. My clothes had changed. I rolled out of bed and walked to the bathroom. I turned on the shower and jumped into the hot water. Twenty minutes flew by, and I sat down at the kitchen table eating eggs.
"Hey Trunks," my mom said, coming from the living room.
"Hi, mom."
"Did grandma make the eggs?"
"Yeah, she did. Mom, what would happen if, say, we were killed by the Androids?"
"Don't think about that. I don't understand why you would think of such things!"
"Yes, it is quite disturbing. But what if Gohan couldn't win this war?"
"You're a Saiyan too, Trunks. You're father would have fought till the end."
"But that's what happened, right?"
Bulma sat down and looked at m.
"Trunks, why are you asking me this?"
"Because, well, I never knew him."
"Vegeta. Well, what do you want to know?"
"Who was he? When did you meet? Do I look like him?"
"Whoa, whoa. One question at a time, please."
"Okay, who is my father?"
"His name was Vegeta. He was a Saiyan Prince and warrior. He bowed to no one. He and I met after they returned from Namek. He and I never like each other. Well, at least he didn't and I already had a boyfriend. I think things started to change after Goku returned. It was after Frieza and King Kold had arrived on Earth. They were seeking revenge, but we were ready. We were going to jump on them, but Vegeta, being very cautious not to get us killed wanted to walk slowly, no flying."
I finished my eggs and brought my plate over to the sink.
"Luckily, we had arrived at the location in time when his ship landed."
"Why were you with them?"
"Well, I hadn't seen Frieza before. So, my excuse was I heard Frieza was kind of cute!" she laughed, "Anyways, when we arrived, Vegeta was the first to attack Frieza. Unfortunately, King Kold beat him and he was thrown to the ground. Yamcha, Krillin and Tien went in as well. Chiatzou followed after, but he wasn't strong enough. Then Gohan jumped in."

"Was he a Super Saiyan yet?"
"No, unfortunately not. And that's what we needed, a super Saiyan. But no one had surpassed the first level of Saiyan besides Goku. Then out of nowhere Goku arrived. He had that smile on his face, the smile that happens before a big battle.
"Goku was waving his fingers back and forth."
Bulma closed her eyes, trying to remember his image and battle.

Back Flash.

"Remember me, Frieza?" Goku asked. He wasn't a Super Saiyan, but normal. And he wasn't wearing his usual orange gi: he was wearing very fancy clothes.
"Go.Goku?" he asked, scared.
"Goku? Is this the one that defeated you?" King Kold asked, arms crossed.
"Yes, I am. And you'll be next!" he yelled and got into fighting stance. He raised his arms and smirked. The ground began to crack around him and the pebbles began to rise.
"Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!" he yelled and ascended, "Time to send you back where you come from!"
He moved at the speed of light and kicked Frieza in the gut and choke slammed King Kold.
The robotic Frieza stood up, clutching his chest. He stared at Goku in fright, and then looked back to his determined self.
"Saiyan monkey!" he yelled and threw an energy beam at him. Goku didn't move and the beam erupted. As the smoke cleared, Goku had his arms raised in the air. He was forming a spirit bomb. The blue energy ball floated above his hands, and continued to grow larger by the second.
"No.not that!" Frieza yelled and flew upwards. He held his finger up and an orange and black energy orb formed. The beam grew from the diameter of a foot, to a hundred foot diameter beam. It grew faster than Goku's spirit bomb.
"Now you die monkey!"
Goku only smiled and threw the spirit bomb, which was the same size as Frieza's death ball. The spirit bomb was very slow moving. The air around it rippled, due to the radiation of the beam.
Frieza pointed his finger out and the two bombs collided.
"Aaahhhhh!!!!!!!!!" Goku yelled and pushed his arms out with more force. The spirit bomb pushed out harder and a brilliant light display began between the two beams.
"You won't kill my son!" King Kold yelled and fired an energy beam. Goku's eyes looked in his direction and he dropped one arm. Lights flashed in the palm of his hand and an energy ball formed. He launched it, and it knocked the other beam out of the way.
"What? No!" King Kold yelled and the beam destroyed him.
"Father!" Frieza yelled, and let down his guard.
"SPIRIT BOMB!" Goku yelled and he pushed the beam towards him. The death bomb was absorbed into the spirit bomb and Frieza's eyes widened.
"Nahooooo!!!!!!" he cried and the bomb exploded on him.
The force of the explosion sent a sonic boom and everyone fell backwards, except Goku.
He turned around and powered down.
"Hey guys!" he called and everyone ran up to him. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bulma took a deep breath and looked at me.
"That's how Frieza was killed. Your father wanted to become a super Saiyan, so he trained hard every day here, in the gravity chamber. I saw him one day, and witnessed him ascend. Rays of gold lights peered through the circular windows. I ran back inside, and told my father what happened."
"Well, how did you two meet?"
"Like I said before, I already had a boyfriend. But I soon found out he was cheating on me, so I ran to my room and cried. Several weeks past, and I was growing lonely. Vegeta was also bored to death, ever since he achieved a higher level. One day, we both walked into each other and it happened.
"Then, two years later Goku had a heart virus. He was in extreme pain; he couldn't fight it. It was the first battle he lost, and died from it. Three months past, and something awful happened. On Amenbo Island, on May twelfth at ten o'clock, they came. Out of nowhere, two Androids attacked the city. We weren't prepared for them. The first to fall was Piccolo. But Vegeta was able to kill the two Androids with no trouble. Then, the nightmares began. A few hours past, and two other Androids appeared from nowhere. They're the one's you're fighting now. Vegeta was the first to challenge them. Arrogant as he was, he thought they would be easy, seeing the first two were. But he fell. Tien jumped in as well, then Krillin and Chiatzou fought. But all three fell. The last we had were Gohan and Yamcha. But Yamcha sacrificed himself to save Gohan. And now, with Piccolo dead, we can't use the Dragon Balls to wish them back to life. Now, only you and Gohan are the survivors of the Earth's Special Defense."
"That sucks. That they died, I mean. And-"
But then the house shook.
"No! They're here!" I yelled.
"Trunks," Bulma said, "Go this time. Show that you are truly the new Prince of Saiyans."
I smiled and ran to the door.
