Disclaimer: I do not own Dragonball Z or any of its characters. If I did I'd be a whole lot richer. However, I do own Frost, Yondar, and Voder. And I also own the three weak changelings.

For those of you that are worried. Goku will not stay as a child past the Baby saga. Don't worry this story will follow the basic timeline of GT but it will NOT be exactly like GT. I do plan on making changes. You'll see some of them as early as this chapter. Anyway I'm just trying to set some of my reviewers' minds at ease.

Chapter 28

"What's taking so long?" Pan whines as she paces back and fourth. It had been three days since the wish had been made on the black star Dragonballs and the ship that was going to take them to recover them before the Earth exploded. "We ought to be ready to leave by now."

"Calm down Pan," Gohan says from up on top of the spaceship. "It will be ready for you guys to leave in a few hours."

After much debate it had been decided that Goku, Pan, and Raditz would be the three to go into space in search of the Dragonballs. Originally Goten and Trunks had volunteered to gather them, but Chi-chi and Bulma quickly reminded the two demi-Saiyans what happened the last time they were in space and Vegeta flat out said no way in hell is he going to let them go out and cause more trouble. Then it was decided that Pan should be allowed to go, because she needed the training experience the most, as did Raditz. But, with Goku along they should be able to handle about anything they run into.

Goku leaned against a pole outside Capsule Corp taking a short nap in the few hours remaining before take-off. Sneaking up behind, Goku are two very dumb looking crooks one with a black ponytail and the other with a blonde pony tail. "That's not Bulma Brief's daughter."

The second crook turns to his partner. "It's got to be her grandkid or something. Close enough." The two pick up Goku and start to walk away.

Ring. Vegeta picks up the phone. "What is it?"

"We have your grandson, Goku here." Eating can be heard in the background. "If you want him back we want twenty million zeni. And if you don't pay up we'll have to kill him."

"Do what you want with him," Vegeta says. "I don't really care." Vegeta hangs up the phone.

Goku is hogging down plate after plate of food. The two crooks stare in horror. If we don't get any money for this kid how are we going to pay for all this food?

Goku finishes his hundredth plate. "Well that was good. Thank-you. But, I have to be going."

"What you can't just leave like that," the leader of the two says.

"I've got somewhere to be," Goku says. "But, it was fun." Goku takes to the air leaving the two crooks dumbfounded.

A minute later a waiter comes by. "Here's the bill sir." The two crooks sweatdrop.

A few months later after finding two of the Dragonballs, Pan, Goku, and Raditz descend toward planet M2. "Would you two get out of the gravity room already," Pan yells. "We're about to land."

"Oh alright." Raditz switches the gravity from the 750g him and Goku had been training in back down to normal and drops out of Super Saiyan 2.

Across the room Goku relaxes his guard. "You're getting better."

"Yeah but you still beat me without even going to the second level," Raditz complains.

"Super Saiyan 2 is still new to you. You'll catch on in time."

"Would you two get up here," Pan yells from the front of the ship. "I we're landing."

The small ship sets down on M2 and the three travels get out. "So where should we start looking?" Goku asks.

"The radar says it's that way." Raditz says looking at the radar.

"There's also a large power level in that area," Goku says.

"Nothing we can't handle," Pan says.

"Don't be so sure. It's suppressed," Goku says.

"Well, that's as good a place as any to start looking," Raditz says. "Grab on." Goku and Pan grab on to Raditz and they instant transmission into the middle of a building.

"I wish I could still do that." Goku says.

"Shut up all you have to do is go to level 4 and you can."

Goku puts a hand behind his head and grins. "Yeah but I'm tired of being a kid. As soon as we're home, I'm going to get back to normal."

"What are you doing here," a voice says. The three turn to see a tall metallic alien robot standing in the office. Some scanners beep at his desk. Interesting you'll make perfect specimens for Dr. Myuu's experiments.

"I don't think so," Raditz says.

"Sorry about his rudeness," Pan says, "but we were wondering if you've seen a Dragonball anywhere." Pan gets out the two Dragonballs and holds them up. "They're like these ones."

"You fools," the man says, "I General Rilldo will take you and your Dragonballs to Dr. Myuu. With the one he already has and the project he's working on he'll be closer to controlling the universe than ever."

"Did you guys catch any of that," Goku asks.

"I think this Myuu guy has the Dragonball and wants to take over the universe," Raditz says.

"Oh ok," Goku says. "Well let's go visit this Dr. Myuu then." They turn to the transporter that says To Dr. Myuu's lab.

"You fools are going nowhere," Rilldo says. "Unless you go through me first that is."

"Fine," Raditz says. He turns to Goku and Pan. "You two go on. I'll handle this guy."

"You sure?" Goku says. "He's pretty strong."

"I think I can handle it." Raditz says. "Besides I could use the exercise." With a yell Raditz flares his aura out and punches Rilldo through the ceiling and follows him through the hole. Pan and Goku enter the transporter as the two face of on planet M2.

Will Raditz be able to handle Rilldo on his own? What awaits Goku and Pan at Myuu's lab? Well you all know the answer to the second question. But will they be able to handle it on their own? Anyway, read and review.
