Disclamer: Me no own DB/Z .
A/N Hello I'm back! This took me a while to write since it was far longer than the epilogue. Just to let you guys know Goku doesn't look like the 14 year old him from dragonball. He looks like teen Gohan…well minus the hair…but you know what I mean ok enough with my babbling on to the story!
Chapter 1: Unexpected surprises
Goku's tears continued to fall as the memory kept playing over like a video tape.
"Stop…please stop," he quietly begged his mind, his tears abruptly stopped when he heard his grandfather's footsteps. He quickly brushed them away with his thumbs and pretended to yawn. "Goku? What's wrong?" Gohan asked worriedly. Goku put on his happy-go-lucky grin (though there was nothing to be happy about).
"Heh…nothing gramps. Just…sleepy I guess..Heh." Gohan was quick to catch on, Goku always put a fake chuckle in every sentence when he lies. Before he can pursue the matter Goku was already on his nimbus cloud.
"Bye Grandpa I'm going to Roshi's! See you later bye!" and with those final words he left leaving a very confused Gohan behind. 'What is he hiding this time? I hope it's not another dinosaur…I almost had a heart failure when I saw that thing! And since when was he that fast?'
Ox King's Palace
'What's Bulma planning this time?' Chi-Chi thought grumpily.
"She KNOWS I'm not a morning person!" Yet she knew that wasn't the real reason, Goku hated her and that's how it's always been and knowing that fact just broke her heart. 'But I have Usukushii.' She reasoned. 'He's kind, sweet, handsome (Goku's hotter)..stop it!' Chi-Chi sighed inwardly.
"I guess no matter how hard you try you'll never forget your first love. That's what grandma always told me. I hate it how she's always right." 'But… Goku isn't your first love, he's your true love,' a small voice said in the back of her mind barley even heard, however she chose to ignore it. Chi-Chi's eyes wandered to the clock and her eyes practically popped out of their eye sockets.
"HOLY SHIT IT'S 11:45?!" Chi-Chi climbed out of her bed at ran to the shower and slammed the door hard behind her; in fact she broke the hedges. "PAPA!!!" "Yes sweetie I'll fix it!" By know it has become a habit and the Ox King was growing tired of fixing the door. "I'll get her a shower curtain." He mumbled as he read his newspaper.
20 minutes later
Chi-Chi ran downstairs and grabbed a piece of toast.
"Morning dad going to pervert hermit's house give you a call bye!" but before she could open the door her father called out,
"Chi-Chi! You shouldn't call him that!" she sighed,
"You're right. He's not a pervert hermit he makes it too obvious; he's just an old perv."
"Well that's true but-,"
"Bye dad!" The teen yelled cutting off her father. As she ran outside she called out her nemesis/Love's beloved cloud, "NIIIIIMMMMMMMBBBBUUUUUUUSSSSSSS!!!!"
A memory crept to her mind as she waited for the yellow cloud.
Flashback
Chibi Chi-Chi poked the fluffy cloud utterly confused.
"Why do you ride a yellow cotton candy?" She asked still poking at it. "Nani?"Chibi Goku answered red in embarrassment. He'd been staring at Chi-Chi the whole time that he didn't hear what she just said.
"I said why do you ride this cotton candy." Chibi Goku huffed,
"It's no cotton candy dumbo, it's a cloud and her name is nimbus! Besides only people with pure hearts can ride it!" Chibi Chi-Chi glared at him.
"You don't have to be rude you know we just met!" 'though he is cute' The truth was Goku didn't know what had gotten into him. Bulma once told him when a boy picks on a girl that means he likes her. 'Can that be…?' He quickly shook that thought away. 'No way! I'm 8 years old that stuff is for grown-ups!' Chibi Goku stared down at the black haired female and decided to tease her a little more.
"Not to mention Nimbus only listens to me." He said sticking out his tongue at her. Chibi Chi-Chi fumed and stuck her tongue out too.
"So can I 'cuz I got a pure heart too!" chibi Goku scoffed and kept on jeering.
"If you're so sure try it." Watch me!" She ran a few yards away and cupped her tiny hands around her mouth. Taking a deep breath she yelled from the top of her lungs. "NNNNNNIIIIIIIIMMMMMBBBBBBUUUUUSSSSSS!!!!" chibi Goku was taken by surprise and immediately was thrown off nimbus with such tremendous speed.
"Oh ho ho what's this?" She chuckled, "It seems that your cloud likes me best." He stood up and glared at her.
"Oh yeah? We'll see about that, NNNIIIIMMMBBUUSSS!!!"
"Oh no you're not, NNNIIIMMMBBBUUUSSS!!" The bickering continued throughout the day, needless to say poor Nimbus had passed out of confusement
End of Flashback
Elsewhere
Goku's crestfallen face reflected back to him from the endless ocean that lead to the old turtle hermit's house. Nothing seemed to make him happy, not even food (AND COMING FROM GOKU THAT'S VERY DEPRESSED). 'Stupid Usukushii…this is all my fault. If I didn't make Chi-Chi mad that day then she never would have met him.' He closed his eyes, too disgusted with himself to see his own reflection, after a while he realized that Nimbus was the going the opposite direction. With this realization he opened his eyes and stoop up.
"NIMBUS STOP!!!" He yelled trying to get the clouds attention, but it was no use. He only knew one other person who could summon nimbus besides Roshi. 'Oh no, Chi-Chan…' "NIMBUS YOU HAVE TO STOP NOW!!!" nothing. The spiky haired boy gulped trying to think of a plan but his mind was
completely blank. 'Well isn't she gonna be in a big surprised.' He thought sarcastically.
Ox King's palace
"What's taking Nimbus so long?! Honestly if that cloud had a butt I would-," Chi-Chi was quickly cut off when she heard screaming from above. Looking up she couldn't help but crack a smile.
"DAMN IT NIMBUS STTTTTTTTOOOOPPPP!!!!!!!!" He yelled practically flying off of it as one of his arms struggled to hang on. Chi-Chi's smile suddenly faded as she remembered last nights' incident. Nimbus promptly landed on Chi-Chi's feet and when Goku cracked an eye open his heart fell, her frown said everything. 'She doesn't want me to be here, She hates me, always did and always will...' Goku clenched his fist, he hated how little control he had over his mind when it came it a certain black haired female. Chi-Chi noticed his hands and couldn't help but feel more depressed, 'Does he really hate me that much?' Their eyes met and like a magnet were suddenly drawn to each other. No words were needed to tell how they were feeling, it could simply be seen through each other's eyes. Yet they were too oblivious to see it.
"Goku I…" Chi-Chi started trying to calm her pounding heart. Goku stared at her and fought the urge to kiss her rosy lips that moment, instead he too spoke,
"No Chi-Chi…I…" but he stopped, Chi-Chi's lips were a few inches apart from his. 'When did she get this close?!' Panic had filled Goku's mind, however his eyes fluttered closed, and his lips brushed against hers, 'I't's like a wish come true,' they both thought as the gap was closing between them. But like all good things must come to an end,
"CHI-CHI!!! COME HERE RIGHT NOW THERE'S SOMETHING YOU NEED TO SEE!!" The Ox King yelled, but sounded frightened. "I uhh..gotta go..," Chi-Chi quickly pulled herself away and scolded herself for forgetting her boyfriend. Goku looked down and blushed furiously but followed her anyways. 'Chi…what are you doing to me'
"Papa what's-,"
"Greetings pitiful humans," Chi-Chi didn't even need an answer, she knew that stupid voice anywhere, "Piccolo." She spat vehemently. Goku stared at the television set and couldn't help but feel anger swell up inside of him as well, "What does that bastard want this time?" King Piccolo's ominous voice echoed through the castle but something about his speech struck Goku very hard.
"I want Princess Chi-Chi, that's right that stupid black haired girl who humiliated me a few months ago. I want her in less than 1 hour if she is not here by that time West City will be destroyed and if I still don't get a response, it will be the entire planet. The countdown will begin now." With an evil laugh the numbers magically appeared on the screen. Chi-Chi stared blankly at the television.
"Papa, I'm going." The Ox King stood up and cast a face that would scare the shit out of anybody whoever saw it, even Goku shivered a bit, but not his daughter.
"Don't you even dare go young lady he could hurt you or worse kill you!" Goku joined in wanting to keep Chi-Chi out of harm as most as possible,
"He's right! Are you that stupid that you're willing to throw your life away with the thought that there are people who care you?!" Chi-Chi's head snapped to his direction and looked at him coldly,
"Like you're the one talk, why should you care? I thought you'd be happy to see me die." Goku was speechless and heartbroken, 'That isn't true I love you. Please don't do this let me fight him.' He wanted to say those words so badly but all that came out was,
"Let me fight him." Chi-Chi scoffed and ran past her father. "Chi-Chi NO!" The ox king looked down at his best friend's grandson and slapped him.
"WHAT KIND OF MAN ARE YOU! DON'T JUST STAND THERE GO KNOCK SOME SENSE INTO HER!!!" Goku nodded rubbing the lump on his head the gigantic man just gave him. 'Right, I won't let anything happen to you Chi-Chan, I promise you.'
Roshi's Island
"Oh this isn't good," Bulma said pacing around the room, "This is not good."
The turtle hermit was also worried but also disappointed. "Does this mean I can't use my shrinking device?" The blue haired girl punched the old man on his head.
"You pervert this is no time to think of such atrocities! We have to think of a way to save Chi-Chi!" Roshi looked up in concentration,
"You know for a thirteen year old girl her name suits her well." Bulma wore a murderous look.
"THAT'S IT YOU'RE GOING TO DIE OLD MAN!!" "Bulma No!" Yamcha yelled trying to hold the pissed off woman from killing the old man, even krillin had to join.
Outside of Ox King's Castle
'Why does he care? I want to die…I can't live like this any longer, maybe he'll finally notice me when I'm gone…will he care?' Hottears rolled down her face as she ran as fast as her legs can go.
"FLYING NIIIMMMBBBUSSS!!!" The fluffy yellow cloud zoomed down and without stopping she jumped on it.
"CHI-CHI NOO!!!" Goku yelled seen her figure go farther and farther until it was a speck and then it was gone. 'Don't die on me Chi…please."
