Gohan stood a few feet in front of Kid Buu, power radiating from him. A malicious smirk crept up onto his lips, confidence dancing in his eyes. "Well, are you going to fight or stand there like an idiot?" scoffed Gohan.
Kid Buu yelled and launched himself a Gohan, who easily sidestepped him. Kid Buu turned around in time to see Gohan's fist sailing toward him. CRACK! Buu went flying toward the Z warriors who stood not far from the battleground, completely in awe and shock.
Goku watched as Buu went flying toward them. Gohan shook his head, could they get any slower? Gohan phased out and reappeared in front of Buu. SMACK! Buu slammed into a cliff, across from where the shocked Z fighters stood.
"G-Gohan?" stuttered Goku, amazed at his son's speed, strength and ability. "What?" snapped Gohan, clearly unhappy at the distraction from his entertainment. BOOM!
Buu burst through the rocky debris and came charging at Gohan. Gohan smirked at Buu's insolent behavior, did he not know when to give up? "Fool." Muttered Gohan as he prepared to attack.
Gohan launched himself at Buu, smashing his fist into Buu's pink face. Gohan then landed a well-placed roundhouse kick to Buu's back, sending him crashing into the ground. Buu stood up, only to get hammered by Gohan's fist, sending him back into the crater.
Gohan launched himself up into the air; Goku's eyes widen as he saw what Gohan was doing up in the air. "Kaaa…Meee…Haaa…Meee…" Gohan drew ki, creating a massive ball of energy.
Buu started to climb out of the debris that Gohan had knocked him into. "What is Gohan doing? I never taught him the Kamehameha." Asked Goku, puzzled at this turn of events.
Shin turned to Goku, "I taught your son that move. Besides after watching you, he would have picked up on it." Goku blinked, and then nodded. He turned his head back to the fight. Gohan was about to release his Kamehameha. "HHHHHAAAAAA!!!!!!!!"
Gohan threw his arms forward, pushing all the energy gathered toward Buu. The Z fighters turned and shielded their faces, as the energy was too intense. Buu looked up in time to see the blast.
He jumped up in the air starting pushing it back. "What!?" yelled Gohan. Gohan gritted his teeth and pushed more energy into the blast. "BUU, YOU WILL NOT DEFEAT ME!" yelled Gohan. Buu continued to push against the strong blast, unfazed by the extra energy.
Finally Buu threw the blast back at Gohan at amazing speed. "What!? Gohan get out of there!" hollered Goku. Unfortunately for him, the blast was moving to fast for Gohan to dodge.
Gohan quickly crossed his arms over his face, hoping to block the blast. KABOOM! The blast exploded creating a devastating wind. When the dust cleared, the Z warriors looked up at where Gohan had been.
Was he still alive? Gohan appeared through the dust, somewhat injured, but still alive. "How? How did he survive?" asked Goku, "There's just no way." Gohan lowered his arms, and scowled.
His arms were burned and bruised. He had a slash across his forehead, and blood staining his face and hands. Buu laughed. "SHUT UP!" yelled Gohan, infuriated at Buu.
Gohan launched himself at Buu. His fist plummeted into Buu's stomach; he then smashed his knee into his chest. Buu went flying into the ground. Gohan then flew behind him and smacked him with his hand.
As Buu shot upward from Gohan's attack, Gohan launched himself at Buu. Buu smacked Gohan toward the ground, and then clobbered him in the back. Gohan plummeted down into the rocks and dirt. Gohan climbed up to his feet, smirking evilly.
"I think it's time to get serious. Don't you think?" asked Gohan, smirking maliciously. Buu stopped laughing his head off, and cocked his head at Gohan. Back on the cliff, Goku and the rest of the gang, face faulted at Gohan's statement.
"How is he that powerful?" asked Goku, shocked at his son's power. Nobody could speak, as they were too appalled.
Gohan let out a yell and started to power up. A powerful explosion shot through the area, and when the dust cleared, a few minutes later, Gohan was standing there clearly more powerful than Buu.
Gohan phased out and reappeared behind Buu and slapped him down to the ground. Buu's impact made a crater in the ground. When Buu looked back up to glare at Gohan, he surprised.
Goku followed Buu's gazed up toward Gohan. Gohan was chanting the familiar words that Goku knew all too well. "Kaaa…mee…haa…mee…" Gohan glared down at Buu. Buu stumbled backwards. "HHHHHHAAAAAAA!!!!!"
Gohan released his blast straight at Buu. Buu shot his arms up to try and bounce Gohan's energy back, but the Kamehameha was too strong.
Gohan continued to push more energy into his attack. The blast overcame Buu and obliterated him. BOOM! The blast exploded disintegrating him and the cliffs surrounding. But Gohan was caught in the backlash. A thunderous roar filled the air as the blast peaked.
After the dust cleared, Goku and the rest zoomed down to the crater to look for Gohan. But all they saw were rocks. A sudden rumbling of rocks shifting brought their attention to the ground.
The group landed on a small plateau. They turned as a pair of hands clasped the edge of the cliff, and slowly Gohan pulled himself up. One eye was shut, with blood matting parts of his face.
Most of his gi was torn; blood on his arms and hands. Goku and the others ran over to him. Goku helped him to a sitting position. "Well, that wasn't as easy as I thought it would be." Gohan gave small laugh.
Shin walked over to Gohan, "Thanks to your efforts, Kid Buu has been destroyed and will never plunder the universe again. Unfortunately I underestimated his strength.
Never the less, you still beat him. I must go now. Farewell." With that Shin disappeared. Gohan gave a small grin, before passing out from exhaustion. Krillin gave a start, but relaxed when Goku gave him a grin, clearly stating that Gohan was okay. Goku stood up, nodding to the group.
Piccolo placed a hand on Goku's right shoulder. Everybody else grabbed a hold of each other, but made sure they were still connected to Goku. They all shimmered and disappeared. They reappeared next to Dende at the lookout. "Give Gohan here, Goku." Dende stated softly. Goku nodded at placed Gohan in front of Dende. Dende held his hands over Gohan, and healed him.
Gohan opened his eyes and sat up. "Dende!?" He had no been there when Dende had shown up. Goku turned to Gohan and helped him to a sitting position. "Well, it's a long story. See we didn't know how strong the Androids were until they showed up. So Piccolo fused with Kami. We needed a new guardian. So we got Dende." Explained Goku. Gohan nodded.
"So you've finally come back for good, Gohan?" asked Piccolo. Gohan nodded, "Of course." "BRAT!!!!!" Everybody looked up to see that Vegeta was stomping toward them. Goku's expression darkened. "It's okay, Dad. I can take care of him myself." Gohan's tone had a slight touch of evil to it. "You and me are fighting, brat. No shirking." Growled Vegeta. Piccolo and Goku glanced at each other and then turned to face Vegeta and Gohan.
"Follow me, brat!" commanded Vegeta. Gohan rolled his eyes, and took off after Vegeta, clearly agitated. Goku and Piccolo followed while the others stood around moping. Shortly after they took off, they both landed. Vegeta glared at Gohan, who in return, gave him a look that said kiss-my-ass-Veggie-head! Goku and Piccolo landed on a cliff, a short distance from the two.
Vegeta yelled and turned to Super Saiyan 2. Gohan smirked at this, and also yelled, but transformed higher than Vegeta to Super Saiyan 3. Gohan's hair was down to his waist with a cowlick (like in Super Saiyan 2.)
"I won't use Super Saiyan 4 on you, Vegeta. It would be a waste of energy and time." Gohan's tone of voice sent chills down Vegeta's spine as fear struck him in realization.
He would be lucky if he came out of this alive. Gohan launched himself at Vegeta and landed a fist into his stomach. Vegeta coughed up maroon blood, and fell to his knees. But this didn't stop Gohan from letting loose at him. Gohan kneed him in the face causing him to go flying up into the air.
Gohan appeared beside him and grabbed him by the hair. Gohan started to punch him in the stomach. Vegeta continued to gag on his blood; Gohan continued to beat him. Gohan finally stopped after a few minutes of this routine.
But before Vegeta could land on the ground, Gohan kicked him in the back, sending Vegeta speeding into the rocky terrain. Vegeta struggled to get to his knees; when he looked up he saw Gohan smiling down evilly. "Get up." Gohan's tone carried malice.
Vegeta got up to his feet and when he did Gohan slapped him across the face, sending him across the ground. Gohan phased out and reappeared in front of Vegeta. Gohan kicked him into the air; when Vegeta started to slow down in the air, Gohan clubbed him in the head sending him crashing down to the ground. "Masenko-HA!" Gohan added a final assault to the battle.
When the dust cleared, Vegeta was laying in a crater, clearly beaten by Gohan. Gohan powered down, and flew to Goku and Piccolo, who were standing there in shock. They were both surprised that Gohan hadn't killed him. Gohan's glare turned into a smile as he jumped onto Goku.
Goku was startled at first, but hugged his son. "Now lets go home." Goku decided it was time. Gohan nodded. "I will see you later, kid." Said Piccolo flying off. Goku disappeared along with Gohan.
Two days later
Goku and Gohan decided to spend some time together, as they hadn't been able to. "Gohan what exactly happened 7 years ago?" asked Goku. He was lying next to Gohan; both were next to the river looking up at the sky. Gohan looked at Goku, and took a deep breath. "Well, it's kind of a long story, but… I remember landed in a crater, and Vegeta landing next to me. Ah, screw that! Just read my mind." Goku looked at Gohan, but nodded. They both calmed themselves. Goku let himself seep into Gohan's mind…
I landed in a crater, severely injured. Vegeta landed in front of me.
"Now it's time to die, brat." He said evilly.
Piccolo appeared behind Vegeta and tried to punch him in the back, but Vegeta dodged his fist and slammed Piccolo in the stomach with his elbow, causing him to fly into a steep cliff, unconscious.
"AHHH!!!!" shrieked Bulma, terrified. She ran toward Vegeta, and me but not fast enough.
Vegeta grabbed me by the head and tossed him into a cliff. He then fired his Galic Gun. The blast went flying toward me at breakneck speed.
I looked up, in time to see the blast landing on me.
BOOM! The blast exploded. A huge crater was formed and the cliff destroyed. I without a doubt was dead.
(This is what Gohan saw through his mind from the Otherworld.)
Piccolo stood up after regaining conscious.
He stared at the spot of where I had died.
Vegeta smirked, "Well, that half-breed brat is gone."
Piccolo growled, 'How dare he kill Gohan!' (Gohan read his mind.)
Vegeta heard Piccolo growl and turned around. "What's the matter, Namek? Did the death of that little pipsqueak piss you off? I'd kill you too, if it weren't for the Dragonballs."
Piccolo's eyes narrowed. Vegeta laughed. "Well, I've got work to do. I'm not going to stay with you weaklings! I am the supreme ruler of the universe." Vegeta blasted off into the air, laughing his head off.
Bulma screamed after him, "Vegeta, you arrogant pothead!"
Dende hung his head. Piccolo simply stared at the crater. 'I'm sorry Gohan. I failed you.' He then looked up to the sky, 'Goku, where are you?'
The group stood there, too shocked to say anything. Just then Bulma's dad flew in, landing a few feet away from the group.
As the door opened, Mom came running out looking for me. "Gohan! Gohan!" she screeched.
Bulma stepped forward, "I'm sorry, Chi-Chi, he's, he's not here. He's dead. We could wish him back though." Mom's eyes widen. "What? Ohh." She fainted. As usual.
Meanwhile, I appeared at the giant check-in station to the Otherworld. King Yemma glared down at him. "Aren't you Goku's son?" he asked.
I nodded. "Well, the Supreme Kai wants to see you. He has a job for you." He pointed a giant finger behind me, who turned around to see Shin standing there.
Shin bowed, "Welcome Gohan. My name is Shin. Please don't call me Supreme Kai. Unfortunately, you cannot return to the Earth quite yet. I need your help in keeping the universe stable. But first you must be able to transform into a Super Saiyan 4. There is such a level. You have hidden powers that will destroy the evils that are threatening to plunder this dimension and many others. So Gohan, will you help me? You will return to your family and friends again. But I can't say when."
I looked at Shin for a moment, "I will help you."
Shin grinned, "Good. That matter is settled. Now stand still while I give you your gi." My old training gi appeared on him.
I was shocked, "Thanks Shin."
"Not a problem. We'll begin your training with Pikon. But promise me this. When your friends and family try to wish you back, refuse."
I nodded, "I will. Shin, has my dad showed up?" Shin shook his head, "He isn't dead Gohan. He's alive. But don't tell the others yet."
My eyes widen in surprise. But I nodded my head.
"Now come, your training begins." Shin said, taking off in the air. I flew after him, puzzled at what had happened.
Shin and me landed on the Grand Kai's planet. Pikon was already standing there with the other Kais.
King Kai looked at me, "Aren't you Goku's kid?" I nodded.
Shin frowned, "Sorry to interrupt, but we have no time for chit chat. Pikon, Gohan, please begin."
Pikon got into a fighting stance, as I did too. I saw Pikon note that my fighting style was of Namekian style.
Pikon launched himself at me, I barely moved out of the way. Pikon and me flew up into the air, throwing punches and kicks. Pikon was stronger than me; I couldn't keep up with his speed.
Pikon landed a punch in my stomach, and then smacked him down to the rocky ground.
After a few minutes of this routine, Pikon grew impatient.
I struggled to get up out of the rocks and dust. 'I have to do this. Earth depends on me. I will not let this happen!'
I glared up at Pikon. I started to clench my hands. He let out screams of rage. His hair shot up and turned yellow, while his eyes glowed turquoise. 'I will beat him!'
"ARGH!" I bypassed the first stage of Super Saiyan and went straight into the second stage. I stood there, breathing heavily, and then looked at Shin.
"Wonderful Gohan. You have been able to transform into Super Saiyan 2. That is all our training for today. If you follow me, you will find your place to sleep. Your friends down on Earth should be summoning the dragon soon. I will let you talk to them one time."
I nodded. "Hey Gohan, you're not bad for a kid." Said Pikon.
I turned, "Thanks." "Hurry Gohan." Said Shin from above.
I flew up, waved to Pikon, and took off. King Kai was waiting at his planet, as we landed. He had left my training early. I didn't see Tien, Chaotzu, or Yamcha. I guess Shin didn't want them near me at the moment, fearing that they might blow me cover.
"I will be back tomorrow to continue your training. Good day." Shin said, as he took off into the air.
King Kai looked at me, "Do you wish to talk to your friends now? They are about to wish you back." I turned to face King Kai and nodded.
'Hello?' My voice rang out over the clearing. All of my friends on Earth looked up.
"Gohan?" questioned Piccolo.
'Yeah. I am with King Kai right now. He's letting me talk to you. Listen I can't come back now. Don't bother wishing me back to life.'
'Why?' questioned Piccolo somewhat angry at my decision.
At that moment Shin broke in, 'I'm The Supreme Kai. Gohan is under my orders to remain here.'
The air was quiet. Me? Not coming back? It was unheard of.
It was Piccolo who finally broke the silence, "But what about Goku? Is he dead?"
I paused for a minute, looked at Shin, who shook his head. 'I haven't seen Dad yet, but I'll tell him what happened. Well, I have to go. King Kai can't hold the connection for long. Bye.' The last connection between my friends and me broke.
Next morning Shin woke me up so I could start training again.
"Thank you for lying Gohan. Goku is not dead, but I don't want them to know. If he comes back now, then he might mess up my plan."
I nodded my head, too groggy from my sleep to say anything. Pikon landed next to Shin, and smirked at me knowing that this fight would be a good one. I knew, too.
I stretched and echoed Pikon's smirk. Shin nodded for Pikon and me to follow. We landed on a clearing on the Grand Kai's planet, not far from his palace. I launched himself at Pikon and we started to punch, block, and kick at each other.
I decided to turn Super Saiyan 2. Now it was Pikon's turn to have trouble. I slammed a fist into Pikon's chest, and landed a roundhouse kick to his head. After a few minutes of me kicking Pikon's butt, Shin decided that it was time to end the match.
"Stop!" yelled Shin, "It is clear that Gohan has the advantage. Now we will go fight our first enemy. I'll talk to you later, Pikon. Gohan, come with me."
Shin blasted off into the air, I waved bye to Pikon, and blasted off following Shin. "Where are we going?" I asked.
Shin's reply, "We need to go down to Hell. There have been some disturbances. Your old enemies have teamed up together and need to be stopped. Nappa, King Cold, Frieza, Raditz, Turles, The Ginyu Force, and Frieza's henchman are the ones causing chaos and disorder. Let's go." Shin sped up, as I did.
First he let me speak to Dad.
'Hi.' Rang out my cheerful voice. I was taking to them telepathically. Dad looked up, "Gohan! King Kai's letting you talk to us, isn't he?"
I laughed, 'Yep. I'm guessing the others have told you what is going on?'
"Yeah." Dad replied gloomily. 'Okay. Well, Supreme Kai said that I could come back in a few years. And he's going to train me.'
Everybody was shocked. 'Hey, don't be sad. I'll come back. I just can't come back now. Oh, I have to go. Shin wants me. Bye.'
Two hours later in Hell, Shin and me landed on a rocky ledge not far from my old enemies.
"Now Gohan, go fight them. I will wait right here." Said Shin solemnly. I looked at him, "Okay."
I blasted into the pink sky. 'He wants me to fight them? Oh well, I hope this works. Getting killed twice would really suck.'
I landed across from Frieza, King Cold, Nappa, The Ginyu Force and Raditz. "Well, aren't you the little twerp of that monkey?" asked Frieza sneering. "Hey, you're the son of my brother. Oh, I'll get you for what you did." Snarled Raditz angrily. King Cold said nothing, but smirked at me.
I smirked, "Whatever." I had gotten cockier for some reason. Oh well. All three of the enemies launched themselves at me, when my other enemies snuck up from behind me.
They all started plundering me. On the cliff, stood Shin. He knew that I had to turn Super Saiyan 3 if I was going to beat them. He kept his gaze on the fight and me. In the meantime, I was losing the fight, badly.
The Ginyu Force grabbed me and took turns punching me. Then they threw me toward King Cold. King Cold kicked me out of the dust and dirt, and into the ground a few feet away. I stood up shakily.
Raditz appeared behind me, and slapped me in the head. I went flying into Frieza and Cooler, who smacked me in the head with their tails. Turles let loose a large ki blast. I crossed his arms over my face, hoping that it would be enough. It wasn't. 'No! I've got to…'
I thought angrily. The blast exploded on me, causing me to go flying into a nearby cliff. The villains grinned and laughed hysterically, thinking I was dead. I couldn't beat all of them in Super Saiyan 2. If I couldn't beat them, then I wouldn't be able to come back alive. I had to defeat them!
'NO! I will not be beaten by these idiots!' I let out a cry of rage and anger. I hair shot up and then grew longer. My eyebrows disappeared. I had reached Super Saiyan 3! I looked up at the group of rowdy enemies. I disappeared and the group went flying into the sky. I then fell into the stance for a Super Warp Kamehameha Wave.
"Ka…me…ha...me...HA!" I fired the blast up at them. It was a direct hit. I listened to their dying screams of pain. I then powered down. "Easy." I stated confidently. When I started to fly toward the Supreme Kai, I felt a sharp pain shoot through my spine. I looked back.
Wagging happily behind was my long lost tail! My eyes widened in clear surprise. Shin appeared next to me in midair.
"Excellent. Your tail has grown back." Suddenly Frieza reappeared. He hadn't been killed by the blast! He smacked me in the head, sending me down to the ground.
What I saw next was pure terror. Frieza was about to blow up the planet! If I died then I wouldn't be able to come back! 'No he couldn't!'
Tears formed in my ebony eyes. My tears quickly disappeared as I shouted out a hoarse yell. Pure rage took me over. Shin eyed me carefully. I was growing red fur, and my hair grew a little longer than usual. Red outlined my eyes, and I had a red glint in my eyes.
I launched himself at Frieza. I blasted him, incinerating him. I flew down to Shin.
Shin smiled, "Good. Now you have achieved SSJ4. You can either go home to your family or you can stay here and train." I looked up evilly, "I think I'll stay up here." I then powered down.
Shin nodded, "Good then I have a gift for you." Shin raised his arms, pointed them at me, and let out a few hoarse words. "Tor basz wqe Gohan tuien fuy Saiyan."
I suddenly felt dizzy. I collapsed onto my hindquarters. Then a new powerful feeling came over me. I looked up at Shin, "What happened?" Shin smiled mischievously, "I decided that you earned the privilege and the power to be called a Full-Blooded Saiyan."
My eyes grew wide as I realized that I was the most powerful of all the Saiyans. "Thanks Shin!" I said. Shin only nodded. "Come. Let's have your training begin."
Goku opened his eyes, finally finding out what happened. Gohan stirred next to him, and he looked over. Gohan looked at him, "Finished?" Goku nodded. Just then, stirring in the brush turned their attention to the bushes. Jessica popped out of the leaves and twigs. "Hey Mom said that dinner was ready." Goku and Gohan left Jessica in the dust as soon as she said food. Jessica groaned, "I am so glad I'm not a Saiyan." Jessica blasted off after them.
Dinner
Gohan and Goku were busy eating (if you could call their behavior eating…); Chi-Chi was busy pestering Gohan about his studies. "Now Gohan, you studied when you were dead, right?" The air was deathly quiet. "No." Gohan went back to eating. "WHAT? Gohan! Now you are way behind." Chi-Chi screeched. "I don't want to study. I want to train. Got it?" Gohan replied. Goku and Jessica looked at Gohan, shell-shocked. Chi-Chi fell out of her chair and fainted.
4 Hours Later
Goku walked into his room that he shared with Gohan (Chi-Chi kicked him out because she thinks it's his fault for Gohan training.) He glanced at Gohan, as he was asleep. "Good night Gohan." Gohan turned in his sleep, and mumbled, "Night Dad." Outside the window, Piccolo sat mediating. 'Night kid.'
