Alright I got another chappie for you guys! it's got my ass kicking oc in here too! Baby Goten has finally arrived.

By the way thanks to everyone who wrote a review and to answer Kinoha's questionis this going to be Chi Chi/

Piccolo or Goku/ Chi Chi pairing, you'll just have to keep reading to find out ( cause honeslty I'm not even sure

yet)

Looks like our plan worked. Catalina said clinking glasses with Lunch and the other girls. Look how happy she is. 18 remarked. Gotta say I like her better when she's smiling. Bulma sighed. Vegeta says Goku will return. The other girls immediately huddled together. Is he sure about that? 18 said flipping her hair. Yeah how would he know? Lunch said. Vegeta has a knack for these things. Bulma said barely suppressing a shiver. I'm worried about what will happen when he gets back. Catalina frowned. He has no say in the matter whatsoever; he gave up his claim to Chi Chi when he decided to remain dead. That's what I think. Up in otherworld Goku narrowed his eyes at Catalina. She sure is a big influence on your wife. King Kai commented from his spot by the ring. I'm only showing you this so it won't be a shock to you if you do decide to return. Goku grimaced as he heard Chi Chi's conversation with Catalina. The woman's animosity for him could be felt through the connection with King Kai.

She reminds me of South Kai. Goku commented and restrained the urge to gag. Let me tell you something about women Goku. They are like wolves, they travel in packs, and if one of the pack gets hurt the others jump in to protect it. He saw the women gather to talk about what to do if he ever returns. Catalina voiced her opinions and Goku frowned deeply. They couldn't understand his logic. The only one who could understand him anyway was Vegeta. King Kai only shrugged. He understood Goku's logic too; he just doubted that evil was going to stop showing up just because he was dead.

Chi Chi yawned and looked up at Piccolo. You're tired. He said maybe you should go upstairs and get some rest. Chi Chi shook her head no and stood up. She went over to the food table. Vegeta saw her go over to the food table and went up to her. You know, your husband will return he said softly while taking her plate from her to fill it with food. Chi Chi looked over at him in surprise. Did you speak to him? Did he tell you this? She demanded. No, I just know that's what he's going to do. I'm sure he sees you down here all over the namek. Vegeta replied. Let me tell you something about sayians, we always return to what's ours. Chi Chi seemed to be thinking about this and then her eyes hardened.

Now let me tell you something she replied snatching her plate from his hands. He lost his claim to me when he decided to stay dead. He wanted to keep the planet safe? Fine. I think he would've done a better job if he was alive, because if something bigger than Cell comes… She trailed off. Gohan and Vegeta would probably perfectly capable of defeating it; no doubt Vegeta would be training Trunks soon. She touched her own stomach I'll be training my own child too. Vegeta saw her thinking about what she had just said. Chi Chi shrugged it off. I'm my own woman Vegeta, to hell what everyone else thinks, Goku included. Does that include your son? He may be ok with it right now, but don't think for a minute that he will ever accept the namek as anything more than his teacher and mentor. He will not accept him as his father. Chi Chi bit her lip. She looked over at Gohan. He was sitting down next to Piccolo and talking to him.

Vegeta saw Chi Chi glance over at Gohan and he smirked. If he couldn't have her then no one else would be with her either. He looked over at Bulma and saw her discussing the situation he'd laid out for her with the other girls. He heard Catalina speaking loudly on the matter. I don't care how many times he saved the world, how many times he'd saved the universe, or how he does his hair. He left her HE Left her with one kid and another on the way! He might be a good person, I don't know him. But look at how I see the situation from the outside. She married him, she gave him a son, she cooked and cleaned for him with no problem. She stood at home while she could've easily gone out and gotten a job. She could've fought but he wanted her to stay at home. He left her alone once for an entire year. Then he returned. She accepted him back. Am I right so far? Everyone was speechless so they just nodded their heads. If there was one thing that could be said about Catalina she was very passionate about what she believed in. So they stay together for seven years, he leaves her to train and then returns for dinner….everyday.

He didn't train everyday. Krillen stated sipping a Margarita. Ok fine every other day then. Catalina stated. She sure is on a roll. 18 commented. So he trained every other day for seven years. Then he has one last night with Chi Chi. Then he dies. Yes that was very noble I have to agree with everyone else, but when he gets a chance to come back he stays dead! Does anyone else have a problem with that! Or is it just me? She finished. We might not agree with Goku's decision, but we still respect him Catalina, and you don't know him. Tien said with a bit of an edge in his voice. Yeah and apparently I'll never get the chance to meet him either. She replied pushing up from her seat and leaving the table.

I know what your issue is, something like that has happened to you before. Don't pain all men with the same brush. Tien thought to himself as he saw her storm off. Vegeta glared at Catalina's back as she walked away. He looked back at Chi Chi and she had returned to piling the food on her plate. Think about what I've said. Vegeta said to her. He walked over to Bulma and stood behind her chair. Hey Vegeta. Krillen said with a nod of his head. Vegeta barely acknowledged Krillen's greeting. I see he still has that stick jammed up his ass. 18 said to Bulma. What did you say tin can? Vegeta said to her. How original.18 replied. Lunch sighed and looked over at Chi Chi. anyone have any idea what she's having? Nope. She doesn't want to get the test done to found out. She'd rather be surprised. Bulma answered. Although if you look at her stomach, my guess is it's going to be a boy. Good guess. Vegeta said with a nod. She wanted a girl didn't she? 18 said.

Yeah she did. Yamcha said. Chi Chi had sat down with Piccolo and Gohan and was inhaling the food she had gotten from the table. 17 sat up. As much as I have enjoyed this conversation I think I'm going to get back to partying. He stood up and headed over to the dance floor. He spied Catalina downing a screwdriver and whisked her over to him. She was more than happy to work off her aggressions dancing with 17. Damn that girl sure can dance. Yamcha said from his spot over at the table. Didn't you two have something going on? Bulma said we did until I tried to talk to Chi Chi. Yamcha replied. She told me she wasn't having it and left me in the dust.

She and 17 make a better couple anyway. 18 replied. Catalina smiled at Chi Chi from the dance floor. Chi Chi smiled and raised her glass in response. Piccolo looked down at Chi Chi. she was in a much better mood than she had been in awhile. He knew that in the morning she was going to be knocked out though. A couple of hours later everyone was getting ready to leave. That was so much fun! Lunch exclaimed. We gotta do this again soon. Bulma said. Yeah it was pretty cool Yamcha said. Glad to see you can still work it Chi Chi. Of course I can. You can never loose the ability once you have it. She replied. The other girls started to laugh. Ok got the hell out of my house, I don't want you weaklings hanging around my house. Oh shut up Vegeta! Bulma snarled. You're all welcome to stay the night if you want, we have plenty of room. We'll stay. Lunch and Catalina said. Tien and 17 frowned. Neither one of them were going to get any action tonight. Bulma chuckled at their disappointed faces.

18 kissed Krillen's bald head and said I'm going to head home with Krillen, I'll drop by tomorrow. Chi Chi yawned as she stood up. She started to walk over to the group of girls when she was swooped up in a pair of strong arms. She looked up and saw The Ox king. C'mon I'll take you to your room. I'm fine daddy, you don't have to pick e up I can walk just fine. I know you can. Ox replied ignoring Chi Chi's protests and threats. She was just like her mother too proud for her own good sometimes. Gohan watched as his mother spewed protests of being carried around lie an invalid, and a weak kitten. He sighed and then glanced at Piccolo. He couldn't help but be a little pissed that his teacher was putting the moves on his mother.

The Ox king put Chi Chi in her bedroom. She frowned at him as he kissed her. Try to get some rest, you might not realize it, but you really tired yourself out tonight. He said turning around. I'll see you soon. Piccolo. Gohan said looking over at Piccolo. Piccolo looked over at Gohan. What exactly is going on between you and my mother? Vegeta heard Gohan ask Piccolo this question and stopped what he was doing to listen. I don't know Gohan, I honestly don't know. Piccolo muttered. Gohan frowned but dropped the issue. I'll leave this alone, for now. Vegeta smirked at Gohan's reaction. That's right boy, protect your father's claim on your mother. He thought to himself. It's getting late kiddo, why don't you head to bed? Bulma said smiling over at Gohan. He looked over at her and nodded. Ok Goodnight everyone. Goodnight Gohan everyone else except Vegeta said.

And the award for the best save of the night goes to Bulma Briefs! She thought to herself having also heard Gohan's question. This is only going to get more complicated. Two months and three weeks later Chi Chi was sitting outside in the summer heat. She smiled as she watched Gohan and Piccolo spar. Lately they hadn't been as close as they were before, but Chi Chi assumed it was because Gohan would be starting school soon. Bulma sat down beside her having decided to take a break from the lab for a day. Look at them go. Bulma said softly as Gohan and Piccolo flew into the air and resumed their sparring. Gohan looks half serious. Chi Chi frowned at that statement. She knew her Gohan looked up to Piccolo. Chi Chi yawned and stretched out on the blanket that was currently put over the lawn. Trunks was already asleep in his mother's arms. Are you ready? Bulma asked Chi Chi. She sighed. I'm ready to meet my baby, but the birth...ughhh. I can remember when I had Gohan. Bulma nodded and rocked Trunks in her arms.

Chi Chi closed her eyes. It had been awhile since she'd gotten a decent night of sleep. She was pretty exhausted. She lay there for a few moments before letting out a small gasp. Chi Chi? Bulma said. Chi Chi sucked in a breath. Chi! What's wrong? Bulma said with a tinge of fear. My…my water broke. Chi Chi stuttered. Bulma bolted up and shouted Gohan! Piccolo! Get down here! Vegeta paused inside of the GR he felt Bulma's fear. He walked out of the Gr in time to see Piccolo picking Chi Chi up. What the hell is going on? Vegeta growled. We've got to get Chi Chi to a hospital Vegeta, it's time. Piccolo, go! We'll grab her things. Piccolo was about to take off when Vegeta growled no. I will take here, you grab her things, the last thing we need is the namek scaring anyone in the hospital. What did you say to me sayain! Piccolo began…There's no time for that! Bulma said gesturing towards Chi Chi. Vegeta, take her Piccolo come with me!

Piccolo glared at Vegeta as he handed Chi Chi over. Follow me. He said to Gohan as he took off. Gohan followed right behind him. Once Vegeta landed in front of the hospital he yelled I have a Harpy in labor I need some assistance! Vegeta, you idiot….Chi Chi hissed as she grabbed his shirt. She would've told him off more, but the contractions were a bit too painful for her to care about his insults. Nngghhhh. She hissed because she had too much pride to scream. Damn it and the contractions just started. Oh goodie that means they're going to be horrible. She bit back a sob as another wave of pain hit her. I will not scream in front of Vegeta I will not give into the pain. Gohan watched as he mother twitched in pain. I said I need a doctor NOW! Vegeta yelled. A nice scrambled to his side and said what's the problem sir? She's in labor; get me a room and a doctor now! Vegeta..Stop scaring the nurse… Chi Chi said taking a couple of deep breaths. Follow me the nurse said. Vegeta followed the nurse into the room.

He set Chi Chi down gently on the bed. I'll be right back with the doctor. Once the nurse left the room Chi Chi let out a small hiss. Vegeta looked down at her. Tears were trickling down from her face. Mom, mom are you ok? Gohan said in a worried voice. Yes I'm….fine baby, why don't you…go outside and wait for the others to come? Gohan frowned at his mother's voice it was tinged with pain. Ok mom. He said walking out of the room. As soon as he left the doctors rushed in. Are you the baby's father? The doctor said while setting Chi Chi up. No, the father is deceased; I'm the closest thing left. Vegeta replied.

Outside Gohan waited nervously. Bulma burst into the hospital followed by Piccolo, and The Ox king. The others are on the way. Bulma said giving Gohan a reassuring hug. They heard a cry of pain come from the room and Gohan winced. Bulma patted his hand and then rushed inside of the room. Shit! Chi Chi cried as she felt the contractions worsen. She had grabbed onto the closest thing she could reach and unfortunately for Vegeta it was his hand. Bulma came into the room and saw Chi Chi nearly breaking Vegeta's hands. Bulma, Chi Chi said grateful to see a familiar female face. Don't worry Chi, from what I hear the labor won't last very long with this one. Chi Chi nodded. Water she rasped out. Bulma said Vegeta, go get her some water…Do I look like a servant to you woman? Bulma turned around to glare at him. He winced and then snorted fine I'll get the stupid water. Bulma, it didn't hurt this much the last time. Chi Chi said as another contractions finally eased away.

Probably because Goku was with you the last time. Don't worry Chi, I'm here for you, and so is everyone else. Chi Chi nodded and closed her eyes. Something told her this was going to be a very hard delivery. Goku paced up and down a hall in the grand kai's palace. He knew that the baby was in distress. Is she going to be ok king kai? Goku asked in a worried voice. It's hard to say Goku, but Chi Chi is a strong woman. If anyone could make it out of this alive, she can. What about the baby? Goku said. You think Chi Chi will let go? She was almost ready to follow you here, we both know the baby won't reject a wish from Shenron. He got a dark look from Goku. Sorry King Kai said couldn't help it. Goku flinched when he saw Chi Chi cry out again.

Dende, it's been six hours, and still… Chi Chi thought. The drugs had helped her a bit and now she didn't have to squeeze so many hands to keep her from crying out in pain. Every single Z fighter was glad too because she had squeezed everyone's hands from Tien's to Krillen's. Tien and Lunch were currently in the room with her. Lunch had braided Chi Chi's long her back behind her head so it wouldn't stick to her sweat drenched forehead. Mrs. Son, we are ready for you to deliver. Lunch and Tien stood up. I'll go get your father…No. Chi Chi said with a shake of her head I want… She turned her head to the side. I want Goku. Send Vegeta, Bulma and Piccolo in. She said softly. Lunch nodded and the couple left. Goku, would it have been so much to ask for you to be here to witness the birth of your second child? Tears ran down her face. She took in a deep shuddering breath and then looked over towards the door.

Piccolo walked in first followed by Bulma and Vegeta. Is Gohan ok? She said. He's a little nervous, but he'll be fine once the baby is here. Bulma said. She nodded as two tears rolled down her cheeks. Are you in pain Chi? No the drugs are working just fine Bulma, I'm ready to push now. She replied. I'll do it by myself, I've been alone the whole pregnancy I do not need him now. No, you don't need him, you just want him. Chi Chi felt someone take her hand into theirs. She looked up and saw Piccolo. She smiled at him. He was still here even though she knew this entire birth was grossing him out. We're here Chi Chi. the nurses and doctors got into position. Ok Mrs. Son, now push. Chi Chi let out a loud scream as she began to push 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 you're doing great Mrs. Son 8 9 10. Ok relax.

Ok Now once more. Chi Chi gritted her teeth and yelled.1…2…3…4….5…6…7….8 Oh no. Chi Chi stopped pushing. What's wrong? She gasped. The umbilical cord is wrapped around the baby's neck, it's not getting enough air! The nurse cried. Tears streamed down Chi Chi's cheeks and Bulma gasped. Ok Mrs. Son. The doctor said we need to get the baby out with this last push; I need you to be strong! Goku, where are you? Where are you when I need you! King Kai, link me to her, I have to talk to her. Goku pleaded. King Kai nodded place your hand on my shoulder Goku. Chi Chi? Chi Chi listen, I'm here I'm watching over you. Goku? Yes I'm here Chi, I love you, you might not believe it but I do. Now put all of your strength into this, I know you don't want to loose our baby. Feel so weak, and I'm in so much pain. C'mon Chi Chi just one more push! Just one more push and then it will be over! Harpy! You have to push or you will loose your brat! Chi Chi just one more push! C'mon Chi, you can do it! Outside of the room muffled sounds could be heard. Catalina was praying while the others fidgeted nervously.

Gohan was staring at the door. 18 put her hand on Gohan's shoulder. It will be alright. She said with a small smile. Gohan smiled back at 18, it wasn't often that she showed a lot of emotion. I hope she's all right Lunch said biting her lip. In the room Chi Chi took in a deep breath. You can do it Chi Chi. Chi Chi let out a ragged yell as she pushed with all of her might. That's it Mrs. Son I can see the head! Keep going! Her yell died to a soft sob when she heard something struggling for air. That's it the baby's out quickly snip the cord! The Doctor ordered. Bulma glanced worriedly at the small baby. All she could see was the mop of hair. As soon as a tiny wail was heard everyone in the room let out a small breath of relief. We got him out just in time! The Nurse said with a happy smile. Congratulations Mrs. Son, you have a new baby boy!

Let me see him! Chi Chi cried. The Nurses cleaned him off and then handed her son to her. Oh my goodness! Bulma said He looks just like Goku! Chi Chi was in shock as she gazed down at her tiny son. She touched his tiny face and then brushed his hair from his face. He was with me, this whole time. She whispered and a single tear made its way down her cheek and landed on the baby's cheek. Chi Chi pressed the baby against her and began to sob. Chi Chi. Bulma said almost starting to cry. Its ok. Chi Chi said in a trembling voice. She smiled down I'm not sad. He looks just like his father. What are you going to name the brat? Vegeta said with a snort. Goku junior? Chi Chi wiped her eyes and then smiled down at the baby. No, I won't have him trying to live another person's life. Goten. She said softly as her sons tail curled around her wrist.

His name is Goten. That's a good name. Bulma said. Piccolo nodded in agreement. Chi Chi smiled at the both of them. Piccolo hadn't let her hand go. Ok everyone out, the mother needs to feed the baby and then rest, we'll be putting him in the nursery for the others to see shortly. The head Nurse proclaimed. Everyone left the room except for the medical staff. Chi Chi looked over at the nurse. May my other son see his brother before you do that? She said softly. Of course. The Nurse said. What's the boy's name? It's Gohan. Chi Chi said rocking Goten in her arms. She smiled down at her baby. Gohan came into the room and Chi Chi smiled weakly at him. Are you ok mom? Gohan said. Yes, I'm fine sweetheart. Come meet your new baby brother Goten.

Gohan looked down at Goten and nearly fell over. He looks just like dad! Gohan said in a shocked voice. Chi Chi nodded. Don't tell the others this Gohan, but your father spoke to me. He knew your little brother was in danger, and I was weak. His words gave me the strength to bring your little brother here. She touched little Goten's cheek. Gohan smiled down at his little brother. It's you me and mom now kid. Gohan thought to himself touching Goten's tail. I'll have to get rid of it. Chi Chi said softly. Gohan nodded. Ok, I'm sorry but he's got to leave now Mrs. Son. Yes, I understand. Chi Chi said with a nod. I'll see you later Gohan. Chi Chi said giving him a peck on the cheek. Bye mom Gohan replied kissing her back and giving Goten a peck too. He went back out into the hallway. As Goten ate Chi Chi Hummed a song softly. She looked out the window. Thank you Goku, our son is beautiful. Up in otherworld Goku smiled.
