Tochaku –
arrival [meaning in Japanese]
A young boy, only five standards runs joyfully down the royal palace's grand halls. Sniggering with mischievous glee with a big wide evil- no 'innocent' smile.
"Can't catch me!" he yelled happily behind him.
Behind him, another boy eight standards his senior chases after the boy franticly.
"Bejita-sama! Please stop running. You're father the Ou is going to kill me if I don't have you in his throne room in ten minutes!"
"NYAH! Then so be it!"
"Bejita-sama!"
"Alright, alright. Radditsu… fine. I'll listen, this time. But afterwards you owe me a spar! And no going easy on me, I'm not a baby! And that's an order!"
"Hai, Bejita-sama."
The Saiyajin royal, along with his loyal guard walk down to the throne room of the Ou. Sighing in annoyment at being stopped from his fun, a childish pout graces the ouji's small mouth.
"Bejita-sama." Radditsu whispers quietly to his ouji looking at the boys messy face.
"Hn?"
"Bejita-sama, why… why do you have your father's special chocolate all over you is face?!"
"Uh…. I umm… err… none of you're business!"
"But Bejita-sama, it is my business! I'm supposed to watch you! Aiiyyee the Ou is going to have my head!"
Radditsu quickly seizes the chiisai ouji and hurries to the nearest restroom facility he knows is near. He cleans the ouji hurriedly as he doesn't wish to try to Ou's patience any further.

[The throne room]
"Where is my brat at!?"
"Sire. The Ouji and his guard is on their way. They had to stop at the restroom; the Ouji had to use it."
"Argh. That brat of mine… one day…"
At the moment the door of the room opened and in came the spoken people.
"Ah. Brats. Finally you wish to grace me with your presence. Late, as always."
Radditsu was sweating bullets. Always late. Bejita DID deserve a good spar.
"I deemed you both here to tell you of good news. Radditsu you're mother is pregnant. You're father is coming with your mother to have the birthing in the medical wing here in the palace. As for you Bejita, my brat, your mother is also pregnant. You're going to have a sister!"
The Ou was positively beaming with happiness. A Daughter! Such a rare occurrence with Saiyajin.
There are such few females within the empire, they were very much valued and prided amongst a family if they had one. Only the highest elite families were allowed marriage with the females. The lower classes were not so fortunate, but beside that, there were the few males who were able to carry cubs. Three out of every seven men were graced with the ability to carry.
"Father. A sister? But…"
"No but's Bejita! Be happy! You'll have someone to play with! You're mother wishes to speak with you so you better go see her. And Radditsu? You're father said it's a boy, you're mother is due any day now. They should be arriving in an hour."
"Hai, arigato Ou-sama."
In one smooth motion Radditsu bowed lowly, turned, and left the room to get ready for his parents arrival. The ouji on the other hand stood behind to talk to his father more.
"Father, when is okaasan having my imoto?" Bejita asked shyly
Smiling, the Ou got off his throne chair and walked up to his small cub-brat. He ruffled the boy's hair and answered him affectionately.
"In about two months Bejita."
"Wakateru."
Bejita hugged his father quickly and left the room to see his mother.

Inside a carriage on it's way to the grand royal palace. A woman screamed in pain.
"Atsumori! Nan desu?
"Bardock you BAKA! I'm in labor!"
"Whaaah--???... but… how… hold on Atsu-chan, we're almost at the palace. Here take my hand"
Now when you're pregnant wife is in labor you never should give her your hand. Why? Hell, because she'd break it to dust! Especially Baradock's wife. Poor Bardock, clueless yet so loving.
"Bakayaro! I'm going to kill you after this! You and your 'special chocolate cake' got me into this mess!
Ah… Bardock's Beautiful wife Atsumori. A Samurai Senshi just like himself. She was a small female warrior with a sweet attitude most of the time, but once you pissed her off or you're an enemy on the battlefield you'd better run or else you'd lose something important. Like an arm or two maybe even haft your body. She has long pitch black hair, and she never needs make-up as she was a natural beauty.

Thirty minutes later

The carriage arrived in front of the royal palace with a hole in it's roof and a door missing. The Ou sweat-dropped as he heard the yells of his long time best friend and his wife from inside the carriage.
"Baka!!!!! Damn you. Arrghhh!"
"Dozo Atsu-chan, you're breaking my hand!"
"Deserves you right you bakayaro!"
"Itai!"
The Ou waited patiently as his long time friend helped his wife out of the carriage.
"Ah, Bardock. Welcome back! Atsumori, my dear, nan desu ka?"
"Bejita!... she's…"
"Shuddap! Kisama! Bejita-san, arigato for letting us come to have the baby here.
But, in the most urgency, I'm in labor at the moment, gomen for the rudeness. Ayeee!!"
The Ou called his guards forward from behind him to help Atsumori to the medical wing as he chatted with his friend along the way.
"It's a boy, hai?"
"Yep! I can't wait! He's strong I can feel it through the bond."
"Ah, I see. Well good job, Dockster. Your son Radditsu is waiting in his room."
"Beji, arigato!"
Smirking, the Ou patted his friend on the back in a little 'you're welcome' gesture.
"I'll have them bring you're boy."
"Arigato."
Calling forth another servant, he had them bring Radditsu.

Far away from the royal palace a change was taking place upon the smallest mountain surrounded by the oldest forest.
The Fuyukaze leaves shifted in the gentle yet sudden breeze that whirled around the ancient tree. The Fuyu started to glow in the lightest blue as it worked its way to the dark blue it so long has not shown to the world around it for the longest time. The earth shook as the power of the tree intensified and the aurora darkened into a majestic blue color. The rich flowers that were once blood red a minute ago was now glittering in an unknown substance that sparkled and glowed. Then, in one colossal movement, the changed flowers rose into the sky and streaked across the sky to the palace.
The magical rains of stars rained down upon the royal grand palace just as a loud shrill cry of a baby rang forth to the world.
The Fuyu-kodomo has been born once again, after three millennium of absence.
