Chapter 4
Life On Earth
ˆ±ˆ±ˆ±ˆ±ˆ±ˆ
"Why are you here, warrior?" asked Vegeta as he looked at Bardock. The lower-classed saiyan had his head turned down, still trying to show his respect to the prince.
"I am not one to say why I am here..." stated Bardock back unsurely. He could most defiantly feel the prince's gaze on him... and it was completely making him nervous.
"You don't know?" asked the prince as he walked up to the warrior with crossed arms. Bardock shook his head as he finally looked into the other saiyans' eyes.
"No sire," was Bardock only reply. Vegeta nodded as he began to walk out of the room to an exit. The warrior felt like he was about to be abandoned as he watched Vegeta leave, but the prince did turn around to face the warrior.
"If you wish, you could come along for dinner," stated the prince as he began to walk out of the room. Bardock immediately got up and ran after the prince hoping he didn't leave the poor warrior behind. You must realize that most saiyan warriors could detect ki... so he was in trouble... that was unless he had a scouter with him.
"Sire!" exclaimed Bardock as the two saiyan finally made it to the outdoors. Bardock couldn't help but realize how clean and fresh the air was... and how cool the breeze was. They sky was a clear blue, not a cloud was in sight. And Bardock couldn't help but look over the edge of the lookout to see a whole mass of green, and a few blotches of blue. Was this the planet that his son was sent to? He couldn't believe it... the environment was breath taking. He looked to the prince who gave a smirk to the warrior.
"For the longest time, I called it a 'Mud ball' of a planet. But it is a nice place to live, I must admit..." stated the prince as he dove off of the platform of the lookout and began to fly towards Capsule Corps. Bardock followed as the prince's example and followed along.
ˆ±ˆ
Back in the hide out, Dente and Piccolo watched as the two took flight in the crisp evening air. The earth kami looked to the warrior.
"Does he seem to be a threat to this planet?" asked Dende.
Piccolo, looking like a statue, crossed arms and all, shook his head as he looked on to where the two warriors had left. "Not at all." Piccolo couldn't help but pause as he turned back to Dente with his cape fluttering in the wind. "He's on a mission..."
"And what's that?" asked Dende.
Piccolo lowered his gave as a smile graced his lips, "To find his family of course."
ˆ±ˆ
Vegeta opened the door to his home being able to sense the whole Z gang. He inwardly growled as he allowed Bardock thru the door before closing it. He began to walk up to the kitchen, but paused before he opened the door.
"I might warn you that my wife has a few 'guests' over," he stated before opening the doors slowly so he wouldn't have his presence known to anyone in the room. Bardock walked in behind the prince quietly and looked around. There were so many people around! Earthlings of course, but they were all talking, some laughing and having a good old time. He looked to the prince who just crossed his arms as he looked around the room that was until...
"Hey everyone!" exclaimed Goku from the other side of the room gaining everyone's attention. "Vegeta's here! Now we can eat!" Vegeta almost... keyword, ALMOST fell over. He growled as everyone turned to see him and began to greet him saying things like, 'Hey Vegeta!' 'Long time no see!' You know... the things that friends tell each other... That was till they noticed the new comer.
Krillin walked up to Bardock and smiled, "Hello their stranger!" he gave out a hand, "I'm Krillin!" Bardock just looked at the hand held out before looking back to the short man raising an eyebrow.
"He's not from around here... if you couldn't tell," stated the prince to Krillin in Japanese, which completely thru Bardock off. Krillin nodded but gave a smile.
"What's your friend's name?" he asked the saiyan prince. Vegeta gave a small smirk as he gave a quick glace to Bardock.
"His name is Bardock. He's a third-class saiyan warrior from Vegetasei."
The room seemed to still and quiet down as they all turned to Bardock, who was becoming uneasy with all the stares. That was till Goku broke the silence with his laugher.
"Yeah... Everyone!" all stares turned to the earth warrior, "This is my father!" murmurs began to be heard around the room. Goku made his way to the saiyan and wrapped an arm around the 'older' saiyans shoulder and raised his other arm up, "Come on! Let's have a good time!" Goku gave a cough as he inserted, "And get all you want before we saiyans, eat up all the food..." Goku quickly turned his head away and placed a hand over his heart as if it was the most painful thing he could say. You could admit that allowing other people to eat before you and having a huge appetite like a saiyan would be painful to watch. Everyone began to laugh at Goku's comment before heading over to the food table.
Bardock blinked, "What just happened?" He looked to Goku as he took away his arm from his father's shoulder.
"You didn't want all the attention... did you?" asked the naïve saiyan as he gave a small smile.
"Well... um..."
Goku nodded with a triumphant smile, "Thought so..." he gave a small chuckle, "You're so much like Vegeta." Bardock almost choked. 'Like the PRINCE?!' Goku laughed as he waved to his father once more to go over to the saiyan buffet table. So did Vegeta, and he followed the prince. Getting a plate filled with random items he sat beside the other saiyans, and half- breeds. Looking at some of the food, he couldn't help but want to poke at it.
The prince laughed mockingly as he watched the curious saiyan. All of saiyan blood couldn't help but look up at Vegeta, who couldn't stop laughing! Now that was a rare sight to see!
"It won't bite," commented Vegeta as he began to eat a few chicken wings. Bardock's face had a small tint of red stain the cheeks. He turned to see the other saiyans eat with chopsticks, and he found a set beside his place. He looked at them strangely before trying to hold them, but they fell out of his hands. He glared at them trying to hold them once more, but his fingers fumbled over the sticks. In result, the saiyan warrior tossed the chopsticks over his shoulder and began to eat with his hands.
There were heavy footsteps, and everyone stopped to eat, including the saiyans, as they watched Gohan rush in with Videl not far behind. They both began to blush as all eyes watched them. Both gave a nervous chuckle before everyone turned back to eating and talking.
It had to have been a few moments later, Gohan sat at the table with Videl beside him. Both began to eat quietly...
"So... what took you so long brother?" asked Goten finished with his food patting his full tummy. Gohan swallowed his food before answering.
"The crime rate has jumped higher. We've been sending criminals to jail like crazy..." stated Gohan as he began to shove the food down his throat once again.
"I'm not surprised!" exclaimed Chichi as she walked up to the saiyan table giving everyone a dessert plate. "The parents aren't doing anything to prevent these happenings! Oh it's a shame!" Chichi gave a fake sob as she walked away. Everyone looked to the woman before mouthing an, 'Okay...'
Bardock licked his fingers clean as he leaned over to the prince, "What's she saying?" The prince looked to the warrior for a moment as he swallowed his food and whispered back, "The harpy's explaining how crazy she is..." The saiyan warrior nodded as he looked at the dessert that sat before him, and dug in.
Gohan couldn't help but notice Bardock. He looked to his father, and back to his soon to be known grandfather. "Um...dad?" asked Gohan.
"Yea-ah" asked Goku spitting a few food globs at his son. Gohan 'expertly' dodged the flying food.
"Who's he?" the son of Goku asked pointing to Bardock.
Goku swallowed his food and gave a small laugh, "He's my father!" Gohan blinked... and blinked again.
"Your... fa-fath-th..." Gohan sputtered out. He then pointed to himself. "He's my-my GRANDFATHER?!" Videl couldn't help but turn to look at Gohan, then to Bardock., then back... She then slowly went back to her food that was till...
:: VIDEL! VIDEL! THIS IS CHIEF:: screeched the watch. All saiyans couldn't help but wince at how high the volume was turned up.
She sighed as she turned to her watch and pressed a button.
"Videl to Chief, What's the problem?" she asked.
::IT SEEMS TO BE THE CRAZY SHORT MAN WITH THE TALL SPIKY HAIR AGAIN! HE'S THROWING BALLS OF LIGHT AT INNOCENT PEOPLE AND DESTROYING BUILDINGS AGAIN!::
Videl looked at her watch strangely as he turned to where the saiyan prince was sitting.
"But... I see him right here... He isn't doing any harm... yet..." she stated into her communicator.
::HOW CAN HE BE IN TWO PLACES AT ONCE?:: asked the chief back.
Videl gave a sigh as she pressed the button. "Are you sure it's the short guy with spiky hair?"
::YES! POSITIVE! HOWEVER HE DOESN'T SEEM SO... SHORT.::
Videl raised an eyebrow. "Eh?"
::JUST COME DOWN HERE! AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE ABLE TO FIND SAIYAMAN WHILE YOUR ON YOUR WAY HERE!:: At that, the communication link between the two people was disconnected.
Videl just stared at her watch, "The hell?"
She tapped it once more before growling and backing her chair up. She stood and walked to the door mumbling something about how stupidly foolish some people could be. She looked back to Gohan who had just finished his food, and the two ran out the door.
Everyone who was quietly watching Videl looked over to Vegeta who sat there fuming.
"The crazy short man with spiky hair?" asked his blue haired wife, "Are you terrorizing innocent people when you take Trunks out for an ice cream again?!"
The prince snorted, "Well, there's nothing BETTER to do since the GRAVITY CHAMBER hasn't been FIXED," he shouted back at Bulma. Beginning to get ticked at her husband she walked up to him glaring and began to poke him in the chest.
"You listen here Mister! I'm the one who had a job that demands hours of laborious work!"
"Laborious work?! You call sitting in your lab all day laborious work?!" shouted the saiyan prince. And yet another Bulma-Vegeta argument began. Bardock couldn't help but notice Trunks pull out a video camera and begin to film the argument, and a few others watch the two fighting. Bardock looked to his son, who was still eating.
"Um... Kakarot?" asked the warrior. Goku swallowed his food as he looked to Bardock.
"Yeah?"
"What are they fighting about? And what was the cause for Prince Vegeta's anger?"
Goku gave a nervous laugh as he placed a hand behind his head. "He's been using innocent people for target practice. And his mate Bulma," he stated pointing to the blue haired genius, "Are having another one of their infamous fights..."
"Shouldn't she be killed for talking back to royalty?" he quietly asked. Goku shook his head.
"Nah. I've heard him say that he enjoys his verbal fights with Bulma... but any other person... he would attempt to sent to the next life..." answered Goku as he paused for a moment.
"Who was that, who ran out a moment ago?" asked Bardock. Goku gave a small smile.
"He's my son." Bardock slightly choked, and paled as he looked to his son in the eye.
"Tell me... How many years have gone by since the Vegetasei destruction?" Goku crossed his arms and looked down to the table.
"That's a tough one..." He looked up and place a finger on his chin, "I'd say... about thirty years..."
Bardock fell back in his chair causing it to break as it hit the tiled floor and gaining every one's attention.
"THIRTY YEARS?!" he exclaimed in the saiyan language. He noticed all of the eyes turned to him, and a feint blush could be seen on his face. He inwardly growled. 'I NEED to stop doing that!'

Chapter Preview for 5:
Gohan couldn't help but gawk. They WERE right when they stated 'the short crazy man with tall hair'! Heck! This person looked EXACTLY like Vegeta. Vegeta look alike or not he had to be stopped. Gohan, as the Great Saiyaman, created a good-sized ki ball and tossed it beside 'Vegeta's' feet. 'That should scare the punk off...' thought Gohan as he smirked.
And the person dodged the blast... but it wasn't a human... He was levitating in the air! Gohan gasped as he got a good look at the male's face. He was indeed a saiyan. And the saiyans was NOT a happy camper! He immediately powered up and began to throw blasts at the hybrid, and began to curse in his native language at the teen.
"Oh... CRAP!" Saiyaman shouted as he powered up too, and was lucky enough to dodge the blast headed to him.
