Chapter 5:Toppling the giant

"Come on now kid you must have some power left...we've only been in here for 2 hours." Raditz said with a look of desperation on his face.

"I know that Uncle Rads but i'm tired." Gohan responded then as a second thought added "We trained all day yesterday!"

"I realize that we trained all day yesterday and I refuse to be the uncle of weak nephew. You will at lest be as strong as the earthlings in there when we reach Vegeta's planet." Raditz said. He noticed the grimace grow on Gohan's face. "Alright fine you win we can stop for the day, but lets just have one last sparring match so I can practice reading peoples ki."

Raditz closed his eyes and got into his fighting stance. He reached his own ki out towards Gohan's and watched in his minds eye the amazing aura that Gohan had recently grown into. He could feel Gohan's emotion change from despair to relief that training was almost over. He felt Gohan lunge toward him and heard the wind shuffle to accommodate Gohans sudden movement. Raditz put his hand open in front of his face to catch Gohan's fist, he pulled down Gohan's arm and threw two quick jabs towards Gohan's head. Gohan managed to dodge both punches then retaliated with a kick of his own at Raditz's midsection. Raditz blocked the kick with his elbow and opened his free hand in Gohan's face, his hand turned yellow and discharged a small ki wave that sent an already exhausted Gohan to the ground unconscious. He revived Gohan with a saiyan technique he had learned in the elite gaurd. "Jeez Uncle Rads you sure have gotten good at ki sensing. I didn't even land a punch this time." Gohan said with affection gleaming in his eyes.

"Yah kid I know, but I did have an excellent teacher." Gohan understood that Raditz was talking about Goku.

"I'll make sure to give him your thanks." Gohan said with a grin on his face. An earth shaking rumble echoed through the room. "Uh-oh I think my tummy wants to train now too." Gohan and Raditz both laughed after this. As they left the gravity room Raditz let Gohan go on ahead to the mess hall. He watched his nephew run off to where his dad spent half of his time. By Vegeta that kid has gotten good in just one month of training. As he turned the corner into the mess hall he saw Gohan plop down next to Goku while telling him of tales of his training.

"So Raditz I hear that you have perfected your ki sense ability to an art form." Goku said without taking his face away from the plates and bowls in front of him.

"It's true I managed to beat a 4 year old with my eyes closed." Raditz said with a smile breaking on his face.

"Hey Uncle Rads i'm actually 4 and one half years old now." Gohan said while making a sour face at Raditz.

"Oh are you really...my my they grow up so fast." Raditz said returning the sour face. "Have you seen the humans, they asked me if I would train with them today?"

"Oh ummm I think I saw Krillin, Yamcha, and Tien leave out the back door. They muttered something about the gravity room." Goku replied still glued to his rice bowl.

In the gravity room the silence was broken by a certain scarred hero saying. "Oh yeah my power is just skyrocketing here lately. I'm up to 866." Said Yamcha as he stepped down from the wall scouter. Tien stepped up and a series of beeps followed.

"Well Yamcha looks as if I am still above you, if only just. I'm at 877 right now." Tien said.

Krillin stepped up to the machine and let out a sigh. "And I really thought that training with Goku yesterday would put me on top but i'm at 876."

They all instinctively stepped backward into a triangle and dropped low into a fighting stance. A moment or two of raw tension passed when Tien phased behind Yamcha before anyone could react and hit him with a knee to the back of the head. Yamcha sprawled forward but caught himself before hitting the ground. He pivoted to face Tien and went to throw Tien a ki blast when he was hit in the side by Krillin's foot. As Yamcha cartwheeled through the air he saw Krillin dash at Tien's head. Tien saw the dash too and was to fast, he threw his hands into the air and screamed "Taiyoken" a white flash erupted throughout the room and blinded Yamcha and Krillin. As the light dimmed to normal Krillin noticed that instead of one Tien now three were standing in front of him. "Aww that is no fair, come on." Krillin said.

In unison the three Tiens said "Whats the matter Krillin my power level splits three ways when I do this." At this one of the Tiens flew at Krillin. Krillin knocked the Tien that had charged to the side only to be hit in the face with a dodompa. Yamcha charged at the only Tien that hadn't done anything yet and headbutted him in the ribs. As the fight raged on the three Tiens were to overpowering for Krillin and Yamcha. After all was said and done in the gravity chamber Tien reverted to his normal self and marched out of the gravity room with a very upset Krillin and a very whinny Yamcha.

"Oh you two are just mad that you can't do that technique. Now get over it." Tien said having fed up with their incessant annoyances.

"But it's cheating, you knew that we couldn't win after you did that." Krillin moaned in complaint.

"Yeah Krillins right, from now on that move is illegal." Yamcha agreed.

"Okay fine next time i'll beat both of you senseless by myself." Tien also agreed while a smirk grew on his face.

Krillin and Yamcha both shot him dirty looks. They rounded the corner to their quarters and saw Piccolo meditating in the middle of the room. "Does he have to float in the middle of the room when he does that, couldn't he do that in a corner or something?" Yamcha asked

After a few seconds they heard a voice behind them say "No I guess I don't have to meditate in the middle of the room, but I choose to because you all can't do anything about it." Then as startling as Piccolo speaking had been another voice spoke.

"No they can't but...I can. Now hows about you start to treat us with respect, we are all here for another month and it would be an easier month to go through if you were even trying to act pleasant towards us." Raditz had appeared in the door. Piccolo uncurled his legs from underneath him and looked with disgust upon Raditz. "There we go, that's a good boy now i'll leave you all to it."

Hours later with the gravity turned up to twenty times earth's gravity Piccolo said out loud to no one but himself "Who the hell does that Raditz think he is, talking to me like that. Once I have disposed of Goku I will dispose of him to. Hmph the self indignant bastard."

"Daddy did you really save the earth from Piccolo's daddy." Gohan asked his father.

At the foot of Gohan's bed Goku replied "Yes I did, now I told that that was the last question. You need to get your rest because we wake up nice and early tomorrow and it's my turn to train you." Goku said with a huge grin on his face. "Go to sleep Gohan, good warriors get lots of sleep."

Gohan slowly went to sleep with thoughts of his own fathers greatness and a new intensity to train flared in the young boys gut.

"Daddy...daddy...DADDY wake up we have to train. Dad how am I ever going to be strong like you if you can't even wake up to train me." Said an exasperated Gohan. He shook his father furiously and watched as he began stir.

"Chi-chi, i've told you once and i'll tell you again. I can't cook, and I don't know where the T.V. remote is." Goku said grogily. He pulled a pillow over his head and tried to sleep again.

"Dad it's not mom it's me now get up." Gohan said in despair. Goku jumped up and looked suprised for a second, then a look of relaxation came over his face.

"Oh yeah I have to train you, sorry Gohan." Goku said sheepishly.

"It's okay, now just get ready so we can get started." Gohan replied in a commanding tone of voice.

Minutes later they arrived at the door to the gravity chamber. After they had gotten in and set it to two times earth's gravity Goku spoke. "Alright son it's time that you learn how to control your power level. Right now your ki fluctuates on and off with your emotions but if you learn to control it you don't have to get really mad to unlock your whole base potential. Okay first you have to well, umm it's like ki sensing yourself, you use your energy to contract on itself. By doing this you can make you power almost nonexistent. Then to raise your power level you have to kind of allow your ki to flow from you but just before it escapes you basically don't let it then in an effort to escape you ki will build thereby increasing your power. Got all that?" Goku explained to his eager son.

Gohan stood there in silence for a minute, then two, then three when finally Goku could feel his son's level shrink to below one. "That's great Gohan you're doing it. Now try to unfold all of it and make yourself ascend to your max." Gohan stood there for a second then a small scream emanated from his lips. A small white aura began to surround the boy, then just as quicly as it had come it was gone and the boy stood in wonder at his new power.

"I have this much power!" Gohan stated suprised.

"Well yeah, this is what you were at before you suppressed it, it just feels huge because your power just multiplied several hundred times." Goku said with a look of admiration gleaming from his eyes.

A/N: Well that ends it hope that you all enjoyed it. I promise that the next chapter will be better i'm just trying to get to my favorite part of the story...where Vegeta shows up. Hehe.

Power Levels

Goku-1234

Goku(no weights)-1356

Piccolo-1100

Piccolo(no weights)-1235

Raditz-1844

Yamcha-866

Krillin-876

Tien-877

Gohan-144

Gohan(no weights)-167

Now somemay notice that huge increases have happened but you have to account for the fact that they have never use a gravity room before and are constantly pushing themselves past the limit. And they have a goal...500,000, when you have a goal work does tend to go quicker with a goal in hand. I also know that it looks as if the human may already be getting left in teh dust but i assure you all that that is not so. They will be effective till the BUU audience gasps saga and maybe even farther i don't know.

Thanks to everyone who reads this and double thanks if you review.
