DragonballZ: Altered History

Hey Everyone! I decided to update once again, it might take awhile to start updating again, as my chapters are starting to take abit longer to write out. Schools also about to start so that's going to cut into my time as well. But fear not, I have big big plans for this fic, and nothing is going to stop me from completing the first saga within the year! Maybe even season!

Disclaimer: I OWN EVERYTHING! INCLUDING THY SOUL! BOW DOWN BEFORE THY MASTER!!! Okay.I own nothing at all. Forgive me please, please!! Okay I own a computer, I lied, Boo ya!

Previosuly on DBZ:AH -- Gohan was training in space, when Bulma told him to get his ass back down there, and Gohan obliged. Yeap onto the next chapter. I think I had too much caffeine today guys..... Anyway onto the story!

Thank Goodness For Chef Boyardee!

Chapter 4 - Darkness Rising

The space ship finally landed onto the lawn of capsule corp, sending a rush of wind all around. Finally when it settled down, it made some beeps and blops as the door opened. Out stepped the last Saiyan in existence, Son Gohan. He looked around as the dusk sun was now setting. He smiled abit, he was back home, he had been gone almost a week training, and finally he was back. He felt much stronger than before, but he was sure he was still no match for the androids. He stepped out of the ship and onto the lawn as he continued making his way to the entrance of capsule corp. Slowly the door opened and out stepped Bulma, a somewhat happy but yet irritated look on her face.

" Well, it's nice to see your back Gohan, but you're going to leave tomorrow like it or not!" She glared at him with a smirk that gave Gohan the willies.

Gohan blinked abit. " Huh? If you wanna throw me out just do it tod-"

"No, I'm not throwing you out.. Follow me, I've got a suprise I'm sure you'll like. " She smiled abit and turned around starting into Capsule Corp. Gohan followed her in wondering where they were going and what the hell Bulma was doing that made her happy again. He looked as Bulma opened a door to an area that Gohan had previously thought to be a broom closet. She led him into a brightly lit room, standing right in the middle of it was a giant yellow machine, that looked like a crunched up grasshopper somewhat to Gohan, with the inscribed word: HOPE. Gohan just stared a moment before he turned to Bulma.

"So what exactly is this???" He scratched his nose looking at it.

" Oh just a time machine" She smiled, just staring at the invention she had created.

"...A time machine?! How in the world did you manage that?!" He looked at her in utter confusion.

"I've been working on it for months. And now it's ready to go, I didn't even think it was possible, but somehow the great genius Bulma always prevails! So bud, you ready to learn how to work this thing?" She looked over to Gohan, who at the current time was just staring at the machine.

"Huh what??? Why do I have to learn how to use it ?" He looked over to her.

"Because I'm afraid that it might not work... and I'll say this, no matter how harsh it seems. You let my son die... Now you owe me. And besides don't you want to go and deliver the medicine to your father?" She said bringing up a purple bottle.

"Whoa.. You mean, we can save my Dad?? Yeah, maybe then we can take down those Androids... Dad, Vejita And I... Yeah! You're a genius Bulma!" He exclaimed growing somewhat excited.

"Yeah, don't you know it. Now do you wanna go or what? Cause I'll teach you how to operate this machine in no time flat. That sound good to you Gohan?" She said as she walked up to the machine.

"Yeah sounds great!" He walked over next to her, looking up the ladder that led to the top.

"Okay hop on in and I'll teach you what you need to do, it's simple really." She said as she pointed to the top. Gohan climbed up and sat down looking around. There was a total of about 12 buttons, one red one marked "Back" and a green one marked "forward" The other ones were numbers, 1-9, and there was also a blue button. Gohan stared at it abit.

" Okay what you need to do is... hit the red one, and then after a bright flash hit the blue one. But wait at least until the light show is over to hit the blue one. The red goes back in time and the green comes forward.

"That's simple.. so when do I leave?"He flipped down in front of Bulma. As he took the purple medicine from her.

"Tomorrow... at dawn sounds good, now how about a big last supper?" She smiled as she walked to the kitchen, thinking of what to cook.

"Yeah sure sounds great!" Gohan said rushing after her.

Gohan had literally gorged himself on food. He sighed as he leaned back onto the bed, still in that tattered gi, inside his pocket remained the capsule with the medicine in it. He patted it, it was what was going to save all of Earth, he knew that even if he wasn't strong enough, his father would think of some way to defeat the androids, his father was good at pulling out of predicaments. He smiled thinking of his father as his lids grew heavy. Oh to wonder, what would his father think of him today if he saw his boy all grown up. His mind wandered with joyous reunions with his father, until finally he fell asleep.
Bulma lay on the bed resting peacefully, she smiled in her sleep, dreaming those damned murderous androids were gone, the demons who murdered her baby boy and nearly took Gohan along with him. She frowned abit as something trailed along her leg. She shifted abit as it kept going further and further along her body. Finally she bolted up right, managing to see two yellow eyes in front of her face. "Hello Bulma" The eyes spoke, and with that she let out a screech.
Gohan sat upright quickly, something had caused him to wake up suddenly. He looked around questioningly. He raised off of the bed and slid into his boots, this time without ankle socks and walked along the corridors. Finally he reached the room that belonged to Bulma and walked in, she was no where to be found from what Gohan could detect, sight and ki wise. He walked up to her bed, seeing her bra, panties and hair tie. "Must have went to the bathroom for a shower..." Gohan mumbled walking out of the room and toward the bathroom. He blinked as the door was wide open, pitch black inside, panic started to over sweep Gohan, where the hell was Bulma?! He concentrated deeply, searching for her ki, when he felt a powerful ki behind him.. It felt evil. He spun around seeing something he had never seen the likes of before, which disturbed him greatly.

"Greetings Gohan.... Seems I caught you by surprise. just like I caught Bulma...I must say she made a nice meal. And I bet you will too!" The reptilian-thing launched it's tail at Gohan, which Gohan dodged and pulled him in slamming a kick into the thing's face.

"Who are you and where's Bulma?!" Gohan screamed kicking the thing into the wall, making a crater in the hall. The thing got up and smirked at Gohan as it crossed it's arms.

" My name is of no concern of you, and I told you Bulma made a delicious meal, she's in me now ... part of me! Hahaha!" The beast grinned.

"Y-you bastard!" Gohan screamed flaring into Super Saiyan, rushing the beast right then. He swung a fist, then some kicks, none of the connecting, the monstrosity just powered up, showing that Gohan was of no match to him. He slammed his tail across Gohan, sending him spiraling out of the building, and onto Capsule Corp.'s lawn. Gohan coughed abit as he raised back up to his feet. The thing blurred in front of Gohan and slammed a couple of fists to his gut then round housed him across the lawn, sending Gohan into the middle of the street. Just as Gohan raised to his feet once again, the beast appeared behind him and slammed his fists into Gohan's back sending him right into the floor. He slid his tail around the saiyan's neck and slammed him back and fourth, making him scream in pain.

" Yes, that's what you get for destroying to of my friends, you imcopetent Saiyan. " The thing grinned at Gohan, loosening it's grip just so the Demi Saiyan could beg for mercy. "You're so weak.. I don't know how you beat 18 and 17.. Must've been sheer luck."

"... What're you talking about?!" Gohan screamed, in a choked manner.

"I need 17 and 18 to achieve perfection, so I came back in time to kill you so you wouldn't kill them, or go back in time or whatever. I don't know what the hell you did to be honest Gohan...All I know, in my time, you were no where to be found, and the androids were dead." He brought him up to his face and looked him in the eye.

" Why don't you just go back in time and absorb 17 and 18 when they first appear if you need them so badly..." Gohan managed to squeeze out in a pathetic voice. He knew this would save his ass, and also excite the beast enough to get him to leave Gohan alone, or at least he hoped. But he had wondered, how did he defeat the androids, and why was he gone? Only one thing came to mind, self destruction. He must have had nothing to lose in the future.

"Yes! Of course! How could I have not seen that, now I must get perfection as possible! I don't have the time to dispose of you Gohan, and I suppose I owe you one, for now I can achieve perfection! Now begone with you!" He slammed Gohan into a crater and burst across town, arriving at his time machine. It was a good thing afterall that the android's ki couldn't be felt, otherwise the reptile-thing, would have achieved his perfection. Gohan staggered to his feet and ran into Capsule Corp quickly. He burst into the one room, and hopped into the time machine. He buckled his safety belt and everything, because safety comes first. He patted his chest, feeling the capsule that held the medicine to be safe. He sighed, he had barely escaped that one at all. He looked over his shoulder as he smiled sadly.

"Goodbye timeline, With Bulma gone, it seems that I just don't have a reason to come back, but I'll take care of those Androids, then that'll be the last of you'll see of me." Gohan pressed the button, as the machine lit up and flashed, sending him back in time where Bulma had programmed it to go. He blasted back in time then, as him and Cell left at the exact same time, with the difference of cell in that one state he has, the infant shell exoskeleton. Gohan was going to see his father again.

Okay! That's it, yes a cliff hanger! A CLIFF HANGER I MADE A CLIFFY! I think its a cliffy... Haha! I have the next chapter, I just need to prepare it and all, then vio la! it's done! I was looking at some stuff on Fan Fic, and I noticed, some fics have like Four Hundred reviews! Wow, I'm so jealous, it seems that what they all have in common is that they don't update for years.. YEARS. Incredible, maybe that's the secrets to reviews. Should I wait a year to update people? Should I ? Tell me when you review!

Oh yeah and a not to SS Gohan Strife, does this answer your question?! Haha, Don't think I did it in spite, by the time I got your review, I had this chapter done, sorry, but it looks like the pairing you wanted won't happen in this lifetime ... then again that's the point of this story, so stayed tuned! A special thanks also goes out to GokuLover21, and Ashley. Especially Ashley for her absolutely stunning review, never in my life have I witnessed such a spectacular review.

REVIEW! And maybe, JUST MAYBEEEE I'll reduce my caffeine intake!

At this random time I would like to mention that I'm going to start writing some more fanfics soon, most of them probably humor, maybe romance, but they're not my top priority as of now, since this fic is. : ) Look for Details in my profile when I put them in there. They wont all pertain to Dragon Ball Z By the way I like other shows too afterall. I highly doubt they will Be anime, I don't like much anime besides DBZ. It's rare that I find one I like.

Well that's enough of my rambling, REVIEW ! Or I will sick my horde of rabid zombie monkeys on you!

Oh yeah, and get reay for the chapter youve been waiting for! Chapter 5 - Reunion Long Awaited
