A few hours later, while everyone was asleep, the pod finally made it to Earth.
It crash-landed in a nearby forest, waking everyone up.
Gine yawned and looked out the window.
"Guys, we made it...", spoke up the Saiyan.
Bisuk chuckled softly, and Supai stammered, "W-We...We did?!"
"Yes, we did.", replied Gine.
A large grin emerged on Supai's face, and she shouted, "YA-HOO!"
She kicked open the pod's door, ran all the way out of the crater the ship made, and hopped onto the green grass.
"WE'RE FINALLY HERE!", happily exclaimed the Fumian, "HELL YEAH!"
Bisuk and Gine got out of the pod, and followed Supai.
Tears of joy were welling up in Gine's eyes.
Bisuk noticed this and smiled, "Well...you finally achieved what you wanted, right?"
Gine happily nodded in response and wiped her eyes.
The group wandered around the forest for a while, before finally stumbling across a cottage.
They all saw an old man carry a young child in a basket.
This child was none other than Kakarot.
Bisuk and Supai turned to Gine, who was now happily tearing up once again.
They encouraged the Saiyan to reunite with her son.
Gine, deeply excited, walked over to the cottage.
There, she saw the old man carry her son inside.
Seeing how the door was open, Gine walked inside and said, "Um, hello."
The old man turned around to see Gine, and his eyes widened in shock.
"It's...it's you, isn't it? You're this child's real mother?", he asked.
Gine smiled, "Yes. How did you know?"
The old man replied, "Well, you are wearing armor similar to what he wore originally, back when I first found him."
He chuckled and said, "My name is Son Gohan, by the way."
Gine smiled, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Son Gohan. I am Gine."
She then asked, "Is it okay if I...hold him, for a minute?"
Gohan nodded, "Of course! I'll just step out. I won't get in the way of your reunion."
He handed the small child over to the Saiyan, and quickly went outside.
Gohan saw Supai and Bisuk waiting nearby.
Supai grinned, "Sup!"
Gohan exclaimed, "Oh! Hello! Are you Gine's friends?"
Bisuk happily replied, "Yes!"
Supai smirked, "Yeah we are."
Gine held her sleeping son close to her heart.
After all this time, she finally found Kakarot, and he was back in her arms.
Gine softly whispered, "Wake up, Kakarot..."
The small child woke up with a rather large yawn, and rubbed his eyes.
His eyes widened upon seeing the woman in front of him.
Gine giggled, "Hi!"
Strangely, Kakarot did not react at the sight of his mother, not even with a excited scream or a laugh.
To Gine's shock, he stared at her with confusion.
She nervously smiled, "K-Kakarot...it's me."
Once again, the child blinked with confusion.
Gine's smile disappeared entirely.
This had never happened before! What was going on?!
Gine fearfully asked, "Kakarot, are you okay? Why won't you respond to me?"
He gave no response.
"It's me! Gine! Your mother!", exclaimed Gine.
Still no response.
"KAKAROT! PLEASE SAY SOMETHING!"
Tears started falling down her face, and she choked out, "P...Please..."
"Kakarot? Is that his actual name?", asked Gohan, who came back in to see how Gine was doing.
The child happily giggled at the elderly man and reached out towards him, much to Gine's surprise.
Gine quickly wiped her tears and replied, "Y-Yes."
Gohan said, "What a strange name, because I only named him Son Goku a month ago. And he was a lot more rougher then."
Gine asked, "Gohan, I was wondering, why doesn't Kak...I mean, Goku...remember me?"
Gohan sighed, "I have no idea...but I believe it has to do with a head injury he recieved four days ago."
Gine exclaimed, "Wh-What?!"
Gohan proceeded to explain the story.
Apparently, he going for an exercise run on a cliff, and he was carrying Goku on his back,
He felt Goku fall out of the basket, quickly turned around, and witnessed him falling all the way down the cliff.
The Saiyan child hit his head on a nearby rock, and was knocked unconscious for a day.
Eventually, he woke up, and all traces of his initial rage were gone. He was now a happy little toddler.
Gine deduced that this event wiped his memory completely of his race's existence, Planet Vegeta, Bardock, Raditz...and her.
"So...Kakarot probably doesn't need me...", she sadly thought to herself.
"Are you alright, my dear?", asked Gohan, with concern in his voice.
Gine nodded, "I just...need to be outside for a moment."
The Saiyan carefully placed her son in Gohan's arms and went out of the cottage.
She saw Bisuk and Supai idly chatting about something random.
They both turned around, saw Gine, and excitedly ran up to her.
Bisuk happily asked,"How was the reunion, Gine?"
Supai grinned, "Yeah! How was it?"
"It was...good. Kakarot and I...reunited. That is all.", said Gine through a very forced smile.
Both Supai and Bisuk could tell that something was definitely wrong.
Gine then fell to her knees and began sobbing.
The pair kneeled down to her level, and they both asked, "What happened?!"
"K-Kakarot...doesn't...remember me! He...H-He-", sobbed Gine.
The Saiyan bursted into more sobs, and covered her face.
She felt Supai and Bisuk embrace her tightly.
Bisuk softly spoke up, "Gine, calm down. Just take a deep breath."
The Saiyan proceeded to do so.
She then looked up at the duo and frowned, "I'm sorry that you had to see me like this."
Bisuk calmly said, "It's okay. We're here for you Gine."
Supai nodded in agreement, "You've gone through so much! We're not gonna let you sit here and wallow in your sorrow!"
Gine sighed deeply, "Th-Thank you..."
She began explaining to the duo what exactly happened to her son.
