'Thoughts'
Three Young Heroes Chapter 1
Raditz looked around the planet called earth. 'This place seems rather familiar. Almost like the planet I met that gorgeous girl on. She was strong for an inferior being... and that night we spent together was bliss. I'm glad that I crash landed on that planet. I just wish I could remember where it was. It's been nearly five years since I've seen her. Oh well, first things first. I must find Kakarrot!'
"Don't move. This t-th-thing's loaded!"
Raditz smirked.
*Nodoka's Home*
Nodoka sighed as she thought about her 'husband' and son. She planned out how to go about the pregnancy very carefully, after running from her home in England. First she found a man that was easy to manipulate into a marriage. Him being Japanese, she needed to make sure that it seemed like they had done 'it' rather quickly. Getting Genma drunk, she had him wake up next to her, both of them nude. He fell for it, and kept thinking that Ranma was his own son, though she sometimes wanted to kill him for that thought. No one else knew any better. Only she knew the truth.
Most people thought, that Ranma's tail was just something he had taken a fancy too, a toy that his mother allowed him. Only Nodoka and Ranma knew that it was real. She made him promise to hide it as he got older and train it in secret. The little boy was very obedient, and started to hide it as well as he could.
Nodoka sighed once more, and wondered where her so-called husband had gone with her little boy. She hadn't seen Ranma's father in nearly five years, and Genma had been gone with Ranma for about three month's. She was getting extremely lonely, and too afraid to write her parents, or her sisters.
*Near the space pod*
'That lazy, good for nothing boy. Almost wish I hadn't lucky with Nodoka that night. Wish I could remember it too. She won't let me anywhere near the same bed anymore!" Genma fumed.
Ranma was shaping out to be a fabulous martial artist, yet never seemed to really take interest in what Genma had to teach. Couldn't be the training method, could it?
A flash of light caught Genma's and Ranma's attention, and they looked between bushes to see an epic battle going on in a field. Watching as one green and two seemingly normal men took flight and met in battle, Genma ran for his life, quickly forgetting his son.
Ranma was enthralled with the fight and did not move, until a young boy jumped out of the ground, and barreled into the long haired man, leaving a good sized crack in the armor. All he could think was 'Cool!' until the boy his age got kicked unconscious. Throwing caution to the wind, Ranma ran between the boy and the advancing man, unconsciously flaring his ki and unwrapping his tail from his waist.
Goku watched as his son got knocked unconscious by his 'brother.' He felt powerless, just laying there, every bone in his body broken. He gathered strength as a new fighter, a child of Gohan's age, ran between the warrior and the prone child. Thoughts ceased as the blue eyed, black haired child unraveled a furry brown tail from his waist.
Raditz stopped, seeing the eyes of the woman he nearly bonded with reflected in the eyes of the child. The child who also had his hair and a tail. Suddenly Raditz knew that night nearly five years ago, and this child. This child was his. This was the planet he crash landed on, where he had left for the woman who cared for him, his... mate.
Suddenly, killing his nephew and brother wasn't so important, and all his trepidation about that returned a thousand fold. In his confusion he uttered two words that would change the lives of everyone there, "My son."
Goku, about to grab his brother, froze...hearing those words. Confusion filled his face as Raditz turned, remorse on his face, mouth open.
Ranma perked up as he heard those words. 'Ha! I knew Genma wasn't my real father! This explains a lot! But why is he attacking everyone here?'
Piccolo charged his blast and shot, running it through both Goku and Raditz, whose stunned expression turned horrified.
Ranma watched in shock as both bodies fell and ran to the larger saiyan's side. 'NOOOOOO!!!!!' he thought.
*In England*
A four year old Harry looked up from the dishes he was cleaning, scanning the room. He could have sworn he heard someone scream no but it didn't sound like it was from the house. It sounded like it came from someone else's mind. Fear had accompanied it. Harry wished he could give reassurances to whoever had sent him that plea for help, or find him. He had been getting strong emotions that were not his own for a year now, and most of them were of reassurance when he was getting yelled at by his Uncle Vernon. Harry sighed and went back to the dishes.
*Back at the battle*
As Ranma got to Raditz's side, he heard a soft "I'm sorry" from the man and shook his head as tears filled his eyes. He then listened as who he knew to be his father addressed the green man.
"Fool!" Raditz hissed, "You killed your own ally!"
Piccolo shrugged, "Goku will be revived with the Dragonballs. Once all seven are gathered, that is what they'll wish for. Don't think you've had the last laugh."
To Ranma's and Piccolo's surprise, Raditz snorted. "Fool, this device on my head is a transmitter. Two of my comrades will now come here. They'll want to make a little wish."
"W-when will they get here?" Goku choked out.
"Still alive little brother? I must apologize. One year, but the funny thing is they're much stronger than I."
Ranma looked into the larger man's face, still unable to say anything as his father's eyes rolled back into his head, and breathing stopped. Suddenly, there was pain, and darkness.
Krillin and Bulma arrived in time to see Piccolo knock the boy unconscious and pick him up. "Goku!" they shouted, trying to find their senzu beans.
"Don't worry 'bout me. I'm already dead. Just train for the upcoming battle with the saiyans in a year, and wish me back."
"Will do Goku!" Krillin said just as Goku's body vanished.
"What?!" screeched Bulma.
"This has Kami's name written all over it," Piccolo said, picking up Gohan in his newly regenerated arm, "He must have a plan."
Suddenly Raditz's body disappeared also, without the scouter.
Piccolo just snorted and turned to leave, the boys in his arms. "I will take these two and train them for a year. They will be an asset to our battle with the saiyans."
He flew off, leaving a dumbfounded Bulma and Krillin.
Raditz appeared in front of King Yemma and felt himself judged. Instead of fighting it, Raditz accepted the judgment, before making his final request. "May I... may I see my son and my... mate... once more? May I try and make peace with my brother?"
Finding the change in the proud saiyan's eyes, he nodded his assent and arranged it all.
Goku appeared in front of Kami, just outside of King Yemma's gate. "What's going on Kami?" Goku asked, surprised to see his friend there.
"I am going to see if you ay train under a great martial arts teacher, King Kai. First we must ask King Yemma's permission though," Kami replied.
Goku nodded, and both walked in. Seeing Raditz, Goku immediately fell into a fighting stance. Then Goku saw that Raditz was watching what looked to be a television screen. Curiosity getting the better of him, Goku walked up to Raditz and watched the screen also. What he saw was a woman with red brown hair tending to some household chores. The screen then switched to show the boy he had seen earlier with Piccolo and Gohan. Goku then looked to the larger saiyan, and was surprised to see tears in his eyes. "That's your son, right?" Goku asked softly.
Raditz nodded, had I known I would have looked harder for a way to fake my death and return to her. I could never remember where the planet was however, so I couldn't find her. Now I know, and it doesn't matter anymore."
Raditz turned to Goku, "I know I said many stupid things, but I expected to find a brother in you, a family. Instead I found someone who didn't remember who he was, and didn't care about our race. It was like you were an empty shell, until I saw your thrill for the fight. I said things I didn't mean, and acted wrongly against you and your family. I'm sorry."
Goku watched, speechless, as his elder brother turned and walked through the gates of hell.
"Goku, you may proceed along snake way. An oni will guide you there," Kami said, coming up behind him.
"May Raditz come also?" Goku asked, "I really need to know more. More about him and my race."
Kami looked to King Yemma, who nodded and Raditz reappeared, looking rather confused.
After everything was explained, the brothers took off on snake way.
*On some unknown planet*
Nappa turned off his scouter and looked to Vegeta. "What will we do Prince Vegeta?"
The shorter saiyan snorted and looked up to his companion, "What do you think, idiot? We go to earth and make a wish!"
"Are we going to wish Raditz back?"
"What a waste of a wish," Prince Vegeta snorted, "I was thinking something more along the lines of immortality."
Nappa grinned, "Now that I could live with for the rest of my life!"
Vegeta just smirked as he climbed in to the pods.
"Those brats were rather powerful. Kakarrot's kid and Raditz's who was stronger," Vegeta commented.
"So mate with the humans and get a whole bunch of super saiyans?" Nappa asked.
"Are you nuts? We purge the planet after we're done with it. We can't have a bunch of ungrateful brats stronger than us running around now can we?"
"As you wish Vegeta," said Nappa, trying to hide his disappointment.
Vegeta just snorted and punched in the coordinates of the planet he wanted to reach. Nappa wondered if he could smuggle on of the females off. He missed his children, and knew the race would go extinct if he didn't do something.
*Back on Earth*
Bulma, Krillin, and Master Roshi drew straws to see who would tell Chichi the bad news. Krillin lucked out, and prepared himself for his doom.
Ranma growled in frustration as the green man that had the name of a tiny instrument explained what his father had been doing. 'My father couldn't have been that bad could he have?' Ranma asked himself over and over.
Piccolo sighed as the kid refused to believe it. Then he turned to them and told them he was going to leave them for six months. Their only task for training... was to survive.
Gohan looked appalled as Piccolo flew into the air and left the two of them alone. "I suppose we ought to get to know each other," Ranma said, "After all, the green man said my father was your father's brother. That makes us cousins. So... let's be friends!"
Gohan smiled at Ranma and nodded enthusiastically. "Yes!" Gohan then frowned, "Do you think.... Do you think that your daddy and my daddy can be friends also? If they're both wished back?"
Ranma grinned, it was just what he had been thinking, "I don't see why not! My daddy should be able to see what's good about your daddy. And your daddy should be able to forgive mine right? After all, he apologized just before he died!"
Gohan nodded once more, "We need to find a place to sleep and things to eat also."
Ranma nodded, and the two of them started off to find what they would need to survive.
