Chapter 2

Gogeta was led into an empty classroom, where he sat down on a chair opposite Dumbledore, who's twinkling eyes gazed into his own momentarily, and stopped as Gogeta felt Dumbledore trying to gain access to his mind and also failing. "That's what the hat tried, you may be able to pull the wool over some people's eyes but I can feel ki energy and know what you are trying to do."

"You are indeed a very unique young man. I hear you have a very magnificent tail."

Gogeta unwrapped his tail to show to the headmaster. "It's my heritage, and I'm proud of my tail, it reminds me of who I am."

"Your not any known magical creature, half human or otherwise. So what are you, even I can't get past your mental barriers. You also seem to have good control over ki and wand-less magic."

"I've been training for as long as I remember, my grandfather Vegeta taught me everything. As for what I am... well I'm simply not human..." Seeing the man's eyes still twinkling he continued. "I am a Saiyan like my father and mother before me. My grandfather Vegeta was a prince from the planet Vegeta-Sei, but it was blown up by the evil dictator Frieza. All but a few of a once proud race of warriors was wiped out. Vegeta settled down here on earth after he found out the true values of love and compassion, and married an earth woman. My mother's grandfather Goku was also a Saiyan, he was sent here as a baby to destroy all life but he fell and hit his head, forgot all his mission and grew up as a human boy. Later he became the strongest and greatest Saiyan warrior, and saved this planet countless times.

My mother and father took ill before I was born, their only hope was to travel to a planet called New Namic to use the dragonballs as earth's own dragonballs disappeared over twenty years ago along with Grandpa Goku. Two of my grandparents gathered all seven of the New Namic balls before the inhabitancies knew what was going on, and wished my parents to become fully blooded Saiyans to save them. I am the first new full blooded Saiyan to be born since Vegeta-Sei was blown up."

"Yes, I have heard of Goku and his many exploits, a true hero. Never did get to meet him. As for your grandfather Vegeta I've not heard that name since he came to purge this planet. I always did wonder what happened to him." He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a paper bag, "lemon drop? They are one of my favourites."

Gogeta eagerly took one and gulped it down, "yea me too, but I prefer the ones that have sherbet in them."

Dumbledore smiled with his eyes twinkling even more if that was possible, reminded of a younger version of himself. "Now, where to put you. I need to know what sort of person you are."

"Well... I duno... I guess you could call me determined to do my best as a Saiyan warrior, but not heartless and ruthless like my ancestors. I have a strong belief in what is right and wrong, I will also protect people with my life if necessary, even people I've just met or never met at all. I believe that all life is precious even that of my enemies, although I have the ability to kill in battle I would not unless there was really no other way. I am really good at thinking in a tight spot and taking a course of action, as well as planning strategies for battle or otherwise. I'm really good at fixing electrical stuff... I love all sorts of music from real heavy stuff to the slow rhythm things like country. I'm good with animals... I am able to reach out with my ki to calm people, or terrify, or what ever feelings I want to project, but usually calming... I can fly... I train my abilities everyday.... hmmm can't think what else."

"Well you sound like a Gryffindor to me. Lets try you out there and see, I'm quite confident you will do well." He got up and led Gogeta out the door and back into the great hall, just in time for the last person to finish being sorted (a Hufflepuff). They stood at the front for a minute while Dumbledore announced, "I have determined that this boy should be in Gryffindor."

There was a large cheer from the table that Gogeta determined must be for Gryffindor. So at a nod of the headmaster's head Gogeta headed over to it and sat down between some people that made room for him.

"Hay I heard you have a tail." A ginger haired boy asked.

"Em yea, I was born with it."

"Cool." He reached his hand over, "I'm Jim, I'm the first of my generation of Weasleys to come to Hogwarts, my father was the oldest of a rather large family. All been Gryffindors, my grandparents will be pleased I got in."

He took his hand and shook it, "I'm Gogeta, pleased to meet you. I'm the first of my family to get in, my father is an inventor and runs a large international corporation called Capsule."

"Think I've heard of them. My grandfather keeps collecting things from the Muggle world and tinkering. He'd be minister of magic by now but he loves his job in the misuse of Muggle artefacts department too much, as well as his obsession with them. A lot of people look down on him because of that."

"Hay not that bad, I'm going to be disowned," a small pale girl with silvery blond hair declared happily from the other side of Gogeta.

"Wow what you doing here? Aren't you Lucius Malfoy's youngest daughter?"

"Unfortunately. I was only born as an accident anyway, I never can live up to the standards of my dear big brother," she huffed. "Now I'm the first Malfoy for generations to not be in Slytherin. I really wish I could see my father and brother's faces when they find out." She laughed, "I've never seen old Snape more shocked in my life before. Poor guy, almost had a heart attack," she sniggered. "As if he's not aggravated enough having to sit next the new defence teacher Professor Granger." She extended her hand and shook Gogeta's, "I'm Selene Malfoy."

The hall fell silent as the Headmaster stood up, "Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts, for some of you this will be your last, and for others it is just beginning. I would like to make some announcements, the forbidden forest is just as the name suggests forbidden, all students caught in or near can expect to be punished accordingly. Mr. Filch would like me to announce that exploding candy is been added to the list of banned items this year and any student that wishes to see the full list is more than welcome to come to his office and read over the list there. And last but not least we would like to introduce us to our new defence against the dark arts teacher, Professor Granger. We hope she will be able to stay on a more permanent basis than the last few. And without further adue lets eat." He waved his hands and plates of food covered the tables.

At the sight of all the food in front of him, Gogeta forgot all about everything being really hungry and started gobbling everything he could get his hands on at a super fast pace making the rest of the Gryffindor table stare at him in amazement, as well as some others when he was caught using his tail to grab food.

30 min later up at the staff table....

"That's his fifty-sixth helping... just four more and you all owe me 10 galleons," Minerva declared happily as everyone but Snape started digging into their pockets.

"Not so fast, he may stop at fifty-nine then I win," Snape drawled out sarcastically.

Hermione rolled her eyes, "you'd think we all had nothing better to do than bet on how much one of the new students can eat."

"Your just upset because he didn't stop at forty," Sprout joked.

"Here we go, 59!"

Snape hid his smile with a sneer as he crossed his fingers under the table. Everyone watched with great interest as Gogeta put down his plate it looked like he was going to stop. Snape and McGonagall was on the edge of their seats. Then as the silence fell over the room Gogeta could be heard asking, "hay Jim you going to finish that plate of potatoes?"

Then the whole room fell over anime style, and all the teachers started handing Minerva ten galleons each, Snape very begrudgingly.

After about seventy helpings Gogeta was full, as well as the table cleared. He and the rest of the first years followed the prefects of their house until they got to a big portrait of a fat lady, who asked for a password. One of the prefects answered by saying 'nimbus' and the portrait swung open revealing a door into the Gryffindor tower. They where then led to their dorm rooms, and Gogeta pulled out his dino-caps and started to unpack his things.

Another boy who was fat and had brown straight hair and scruffy robes asked, "hay how come your dino-caps all worked and none of mine does?"

"Let me see them?"

The boy handed a load of dino-caps to Gogeta, "I'm Tom, my dad is a wizard and my mum is a muggle."

"I'm Gogeta, both my parents are I suppose muggles... although they can use ki energy but anyone can as long as they know how." He pulled out a very fine screwdriver from a tool kit and started to poke at the middle of the dino-cap. "Yours won't work because they are too old to have the special shielding on them that protects from the high amount of energy that radiates from here."

"Yea well... they are kind of hand me downs... think they are older than I am. Watch what your doing with those I can't afford to replace them."

"Don't worry I been working on these for years, I know what I'm doing. Besides this particular model has a life time guarantee, my grandmother was so confident that no one could break her new improved model. Don't think we ever replaced any, well except the few faulty ones that slipped the net after being manufactured, but any product can expect some of those. They are also insured for what is in them as long as it's not living, we have a disclaimer about that. So if I break it send it off to them and claim there was gold in there or something, there is no way to tell on that particular one."

"Your grandmother?"

"Yea, Bulma Briefs. Her father invented the dino-cap, and my father is currant president." He fiddled about some more until he got it open and took out a mini circuit board inside, he then proceeded to take apart one of his own dino-caps.

"Wow..."

Gogeta opened up one of his own, then took out the circuit in it and plugged in the one from Tom's and screwed it back together. "Hopefully this will work." He then pushed the button and a trunk full of stuff came out. "See easy enough.... wonder how many people are having the same problem. I should write to my Dad and ask for a load more dino-caps." Gogeta then did the same to the rest of the dino-caps swapping with the outer case of one of his own until he had all of Tom's stuff out, then handed him his dino-caps back then an empty one of his own. "Never know what you might need one for."

"Thanks Gogeta," Tom replied then sat on his bed sorting out his things. "So how much can one of these new ones hold anyway?"

He thought for a while, "since they are not the really big new ones... I'd say about four large capsule houses."

"Could you hold a person in one of those?" Jim asked in amazement never having seen a dino-cap before.

"Yea... one of the new ones you can anyway. Can't guarantee they will come out right in the end but it could hold someone. My father is working on one that can, but it's hard to get something that will hold something as complex as a living being." He showed the inside of one, "each cap has one of these circuit boards, what the cap does is scans the object and dematerialises them and store the pattern of every single molecule of that object. When you press the button it rematerialises the object in the using the exact pattern stored on the board. To do something like a living being is very complicated and there simply isn't enough room to store the data."

Gogeta paused and looked solemnly at the boys gathered in interest. "When I was about six years old, there was an accident in one of the labs. I was there at the time with my grandmother. One of the lab technicians was capsulating one of the peaces of equipment and it slipped in his hand, and he was swallowed up. Normally there are safety devices to stop it from happening but this capsule had them bypassed to take a bigger load. The man was decapsulated, it was horrible, he was completely turned inside out, and needless to say died instantly."

Everyone fell silent and finished unpacking then gone to bed.
