Chapter 2
Edin and Sei
Ok, I don't own Goku, Goten, Gohan, Vegeta, or Trunks. I also don't own Piccolo, Bulma, or Chichi. I do, however, own Edin and Sei. Yeah. I just knew I would get SOMEONE (who will remain nameless) complaining about not disowning the characters. Happy? Ok, please review!!! If you like the story, let me know! If you don't, let me know how to fix it! Beta readers can only do so much!! Ok, I guess I'm done talking (Kage- ::Cough:: Rambling ::Cough:: ) yeah, whatever. Here you people go.........
The sun had begun to reach the highest part of the sky as Goku flew low over the ocean. 'Where could he have gone?' He had searched all of the close places around, and was now moving further out and away from Capsule Corp.
The Saiyan looked around him in every direction, his senses searing for any signs of the son who had run away. "Goten! Where are you son?" Goku could sense something coming from the West. "Huh?" The man stopped and floated in midair.
"Otousan...?" A soft voice reached Goku's ears. Goku powered again and took off flying in the direction the voice had come from.
"I'm coming Goten." Goku muttered to himself. "Just hold on and wait for me."
"Where could he have gone?" Chichi paced back and forth in Bulma's kitchen. Bulma stood against the counter watching her friend. Both women had bags under their eyes and looked extremely tired. They had stayed up all night looking for the young son, but it was to no avail.
"Chichi, I'm sure the boys will find him." Chichi stopped pacing and turned to Bulma.
"I am sure you are right, but..." Bulma straightened up and gave Chichi a hug.
"It'll be alright." The women smiled at each other.
"I know you are right. Goku will find him."
Goten walked around on some kind of island, his head was still fuzzy and he wasn't sure where he was. "Otousan?" He asked out loud. Maybe his father was somewhere close. 'How did I get here?' He wondered to himself. He stopped as he tried to think back to the night before.
'We were having dinner, and then I... ran away.' Goten suddenly felt guilty. 'Did I do something I shouldn't have?' Goten spun around as something moved behind him. "Who's there?" He asked, trying to keep his voice strong. Someone laughed and then stepped out of the bushes they had been standing in.
"You are just like your brother Goten." The young teen moved into a fighting stance.
"I'll only ask once more, who are you and what do you want with me?" The man put his hands out to show Goten that he didn't have anything, nor that he wanted to fight.
"My name is Edin, and I have brought you here to let you have a break, a vacation if you will, to get away from being a Saiyan." The man had straight dark brown hair that came to his shoulders and crystal purple eyes said. He wore an outfit much like Vegeta did, except that this Edin's was a hunter green color. Goten was caught off guard by the man's knowledge of what he had been thinking earlier.
"What do you know about Saiyans?" He asked as he relaxed his stance slightly.
"Nothing. All I know is that you don't want to be one anymore."
"Th--That's not true...!" At least Goten thought it wasn't true. He still wanted to be a Saiyan, he just wanted a break.
"If you say so." Edin shrugged. "But this is a place where no fighting is allowed. If someone were to break this rule well..." Edin pulled a finger across his throat to show the person's death.
"Did you bring me here?" Goten asked not paying any attention to the man's hand gesture.
"No, but I ordered it." Goten was still lost. Why had this guy brought him here? How had he known what Goten had been thinking about? And where was he, could he get back home?
"What if I don't want to be here? What if I want to be a Saiyan again?" Edin looked at Goten quietly for a second.
"Now that you are here, there is no leaving."
Trunks flew to the top of a mountain. He really had no idea where he was other than it was to the East of Capsule Corp. Vegeta had gone to the North, Gohan to the South, and Goku to the West.
Trunks set down on the ice topped mountain and looked around. "Goten?!" Trunks looked down the edge of the mountain. 'Where could he have gone? Why did he leave?' Trunks felt as if he was loosing his best friend.
'Why didn't he talk to me first?' Trunks lifted off the mountain and began to fly further east, away from Capsule Corp and everything else. 'Goten, where are you...?' The wind began to pick up and Trunks began to have a hard time flying into it. He powered up, making his fly a little easier.
"Stupid wind." Trunks landed on the ground and began walking instead. "No wind's gunna keep me from finding you Goten." Trunks said as he walked on.
Unknown to Trunks, was that the wind was sent from a friend up above, trying to help him in the right direction.
Goku stopped over the wide ocean again. He could tell something was under him. He could feel Goten's Ki, but there was no land anywhere. 'Maybe he's under the water?' Goku flew lower, his eyes looking into the deep blue green ocean.
CLUNK! Goku's head smashed into something. He rubbed it as he looked for what he had hit. Again there was nothing. "Huh?!" Goku dropped his hand. He slowly reached out and his hand hit something hard. Goku knocked on it. He pulled back and waited a second.
"What do you want?" A small man with blood red hair cropped just below his ears asked as his head appeared out of the air. Goku yelled and jumped back.
"You're just a head!" He said. The little man rolled his eyes.
"Why did you knock?" The man glided up and sat on nothing, showing his whole body to Goku. The Saiyan looked the man over once. His robe looked kind of like Kami's, only the color was different.
"Um, have you seen my son? He's about so high," Goku indicated Goten's height with his hands. "And has black hair kinda like mine." The little man looked Goku over once.
"And if I have?" Goku smiled.
"I'd like to talk to him if that's ok." The man shook his head.
"Sorry, no. The boy you speak of doesn't want to be a Saiyan anymore. He is in a different place now." Goku's face dropped.
"Doesn't want to be a Saiyan? Goten? No way." Goku began to laugh.
"He said it himself." Goku stopped laughing and stared strait faced at the man sitting in front of him.
"Where's my son?" The Saiyan was done playing around. "Is he in here?" Goku flew at the invisible wall that the man was sitting on. His shoulder bashed against it and he was thrown backward.
"Yes, Goten is in here, but you can't get in. No one can get in unless Edin allows it." Goku righted himself and looked at the man.
"Then let me talk to this Edin." The man shook his head.
"It doesn't work like that." Goku frowned and powered up.
"Then I'll bust my way in." Goku began to ram into the wall again.
"You'll never get in." The man said with a laugh. No sooner had the words left his mouth that a loud CRACK! Was heard. The man turned to look at Goku as he broke a large hole in the wall, revealing an island below him.
"I'm coming Goten." Goku whispered as he flew into the hole. The man stood dumbfounded for a second. A smile slowly grew on his face.
"He's coming." He said into a microphone on his robe.
"Good. We are almost ready." A voice cracked back. "Come back Sei." The man nodded and sank back into the wall, as he did so, the hole Goku had just made began to repair itself, closing its invisible force field.
