I'm back guys with another chapter.
Good news! The discord server is up that I made with a fellow writer! The link is on my profile.
Currently working on another story so that will take some time away from this one, but it will retain the length that I aimed for, so no worry on that.
I want to thank you all for the support, seriously, I didn't expect to get anything near this kind of feedback, so here I am with another chapter.
I also want to know. Do you guys like that I respond to your reviews or would you rather me focus more on the story aspect? Let me know.
Here's are my responses.
lost mephillies: That's what I was aiming for in this fic. Thanks for the kind words and Goku Black is considered one of the best villains.
serus black antihumannature: I understand. I will mostly be sticking to the canon story without any other external stories like movies and such. I mean of course there are worse people out there than Mercenary Tao, but he's on Earth and other humans can become like him if ki is publicized. Thanks for the review.
gamerjames27: Thanks for the encouragement!
Giltlawyer9000: That may be in the works, but it won't be original, more like a technique that I think is pretty cool.
RKF22: It will be nice. Thanks for the review!
MasterOfDragonsGod: He is a comedic character that had a lot of influence on Goku. I like showing the more comedic scenes as much as I can. Thanks for the review!
demzerff1: I agree. The potential is incredibly high for Gohan and he has a ton of room to grow and become strong while Goku has less potential, although he is strong. Thanks for the review!
davidgalhego05: Yes events will happen with some changes, since this Gohan is more dedicated to training. I don't know if he'll be paired Videl, but it's a possibility. Thank you for the review!
zehendner: Us both. Excited to write more. Thanks for the review!
thestoryofMatthew: I don't want to spoil it, but I am thinking about it. Thanks for the review!
femalessjanimegirl: I will go through the entire storyline through Super, and maybe go beyond if people really want me to continue after Super. Thanks for the review!
DBZFAN45: I see what you mean. I won't be spending a whole lot of time, after this chapter will be a jump to the Saiyan Saga. Thanks for the review!
Shank5: I think it's a permanent base boost as well, only if the user continues training or keep the strength. I'm not sure if Gohan will transform into an oozaru before Vegeta lands, but it's a possibility. Still in the works. Thanks for the review!
nekoboy13: The MHA crossover will be its own story when I come to the point of writing it. I was thinking about putting it at the end, but some reviews want answers to things that could happen within the chapter, so it would be pointless since they would have already read it, or I could post my responses in a YouTube video if people want to watch that. It may be easier that way if people want it. Thanks for the review!
Phenomenal Ultra Instinct: It will be interesting to write, the whole mini arc. Thanks for the review!
Ushindeshi: Thanks for the feedback! We will see who's there!
Val'Hor: Thank you for the review in return! I appreciate the support.
0 Jordinio 0: It's the style of my writing. I don't want to have to put quotation marks basic thoughts and it'll get repetitive, if it's important dialogue that I want to highlight, then I put it in quotes, but saying he is confused or impressed by Gohan's strength and being stronger than a normal child, I'm not putting that in quotes, it's basic and people understand what the message is being conveyed. Thanks for the feedback!
SVSmog: He has not watched the whole series, only a few clips here and there. He'd rather watch other anime then a parody series of DBZ. Thanks for the review!
duckie288: Thank you for the review! I will do my best to make it entertaining and accurate as possible!
emiyaryo: It is possible, yes. I also agree that she was basically stripped from all her feistiness and bravado in super to become a housewife. I didn't agree with that decision. Thank you for the review!
frankieu: Thank you for the kind words! I will continue updating as I can.
thepowerfullkira: I believe so as well, since it's just an unleashed of potential and can be trained on top of.
Durrty Paramour: I haven't seen the Dead Zone movie but I've heard it's pretty good! Thanks for the review!
hawkeyestratos1996: Most likely not, but SSJ4 could be a possibility, because those transformations would be temporary trying to control the primal power, maybe SSJ4 God. I'm not sure.
SoulDeprived: I forgive the Jake Paul meme because it is fairly accurate. I don't really listen to people who hate my story unless they give valid reasons why.
arinst2305: Next is here!
justinmil22: I have an idea of what I want to go for, but there are some options. Thanks for the review.
I also want an opinion. People say that the dragon ball super series start after a few months from the Buu Saga, but the wiki of the timeline says it's 4 years after it. Let me know if you want it a few months or 4 years. Thanks!
There are the reviews and I appreciate all the support. Here's the next chapter of the story!
"Talking" = Dialogue
'Thoughts' = Characters' thoughts
-MNL- = Transition between scenes
Chapter 4
Junior Tournament
"Oh, hey Krillin! This is my son. Gohan". Goku introduces.
"Son?! I didn't know you already did the deed". Krillin exclaims surprised that his best friend has a child.
"Hey, Krillin". I wave to him from the small pond.
"Hey, how old are ya buddy?" Krillin asks.
"2 and a half". I respond.
"Wow. That would have to be soon after the fight with Piccolo, so you're training already? That's crazy". He thought aloud.
"I know. I thought so too". Goku adds in.
"Would you want to spar?" I ask surprising the young monk.
He raises his eyebrows.
"Sure. I don't mind". Krillin smiles a bit.
"Thank you!" I begin to get out of the pond with a towel around my waist to dry off and then put my gi on.
"Woah! No need to do that here. You definitely got that from your dad". Krillin covers his eyes while Roshi does the same.
"Yeah, sorry, haha. Just faster this way". I state as I finish putting on my shoes and begin stretching.
"Just don't make a habit of it". Krillin sweatdrops while Goku just laughs.
"Right". I laugh embarrassingly. I don't really mind stripping down especially since there aren't other people for miles.
Everyone that was relaxing in the pond eventually got dressed and headed to see our fight. My dad is most excited for seeing this spar.
"Well, I'm ready when you are". Krillin states getting into a stance.
The land around us is flat with a few rocks here and there. A good spot for some practice. I know I definitely need it.
I take my own stance and it's improved slightly from my spar with Master Roshi. There are still problems, but it's better than before. Like before, I rush forward for a left punch and him being smaller, it's much easier to land, however, he dodges and counters with a right hook.
I block with my left hand sending a kick towards his direction and he jumps back. Krillin rushes forward once he lands aiming a punch to my face and I jump countering once again to be blocked. This goes on for a while until I start to slow down, and he lands more and more punches having the better stamina and strength.
I'm getting more and more exhausted by every second I try to dodge, counter attack, and getting hit drains me until I am punched in the face as I fall backwards. I prop myself on my elbows looking up panting heavily. Krillin is just the better fighter which makes sense since I have no real combat experience, just power.
And even still, he is still considerably stronger than I am.
"Wow, Gohan. You're really good. I never thought you'd be at this level so young". Krillin praises.
I smile standing up.
"Thanks, I've been training for quite a while". I laugh as the rest of the group gathers.
"Well it's getting late and your mother wouldn't be happy if you were staying out too late". Goku announces our departure.
"It's been a great day of training, Gohan. Be sure to come back and we will keep at it". Master Roshi waves smiling at me.
"I'll be here to assist as well". Krillin nods.
"Right. Thank you for everything. I will train hard for the tournament!" I state as I'm about to train even beyond my limits.
"NIMBUS!" My dad yells as the yellow cloud descends from the sky and jumping on top.
We ride back home as the orange tint of the world's sky begin to cover the area above. On the way home I've had a lot to think about.
This tournament thing would be interesting. I still don't know about any fighters would be there, but it's only people 16 and under which I cannot think of any formidable fighters at this age.
I could be surprised though. I have changed a timeline a little bit, at least in between Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z.
I'm just gonna train my tail in the downtime. That should make sure it's no longer a weakness, but what should I do about the whole Raditz thing. I could try and fight him, but I'm not sure if I could get that strong, plus dad needs King Kai's training.
This is all so confusing.
I should just try and have the same outcome in canon. The kaioken would be crucial in the battle against Frieza, so I think that's what imma do.
Letting my dad die is a strange plan, but it's a necessary one.
Well. It's time to push my limits and I'll still do some training before and after Roshi's training. Go beyond is what I need to do within this week.
"So how did you like training today?" Goku asks while we are almost home.
"It was good. I liked it, but I kinda suck at fighting". I laugh.
"Everyone starts from somewhere, but you have the power to back it up. It'll come in time". Goku reassures me continuing forward as we reach our home.
"Thanks, dad". I say jumping down and entering the home.
"Hey, Goku, Gohan. How was the trip?" My mother asks as dinner was practically ready besides a few items.
"It was good. Master Roshi was really nice". I say laughing trying to put up a front.
"That's good. After dinner you have some studying to do". My mother reminds me setting down the last of the food as we all dig in.
Of course, I eat a larger portion this time around because of the torturous training that happened just hours ago, besides the sparring, that was fun.
I resigned back into my room and worked on some more studying material that was laughably easy, but for a real two and a half year old, not so much.
Who knows what I will be working on years from now since Gohan was practically leagues above everyone by his senior year of high school. I don't exactly want to be like that, but I also don't want to have to worry about school a second time, so I will do what's necessary to at least breeze through my high school years.
I barely even cared a whole lot through my previous life during schooling, but I wasn't a bad student either, just a little lazy.
Facing my bed, I lay down and get under the covers. My mother thought it was about time I get my own bed about six months ago because I can walk and talk just fine, so she thought I was some sort of prodigy. In a way she is right, but not really.
I just wonder if all I am is just some entertainment for Lord Beerus as Whis said I was. There has to be more than that, right?
Maybe. I will find out eventually.
My life so far has been pretty great. I live with two people I have grown up watching and soon to be a third when the time comes. I will be an older brother, again.
I just have to become stronger and that's all that matters for right now.
With those last thoughts I begin to drift off into sleep. The entire universe on my shoulders and I can't just rely on Goku to handle the world's problems. That's why everything almost comes to an end in the Cell and Majin Buu arcs, but hopefully I can make a difference.
Although, for now, I have a week of gruelling training to do.
Day 2
I begin to do all the textbooks my mother asks getting all the questions correct. She gives me a nod and I'm allowed to play outside for the day as long as I'm careful, which isn't too far from the truth. I am safe… enough.
My dad accompanies me and we get to work again, at least I do. My dad, Roshi, and Krillin all go through the exercises from the day before, besides finding the rock, of course. There is a sense of nostalgia in the air, including me as I remember loving these episodes of Dragon Ball. It was so simple back at this time period, but when super saiyans and gods come into play. It gets much more complicated, but also interesting as well.
The only new thing we do is construction work as I quickly wheelbarrow things around with a yellow hard hat on, and digging around the construction site. I outrun all the other workers doing this job incredibly fast. My dad gets paid and we move on to sparring. I go up against Roshi, Krillin, and then my dad all in that order. To say that I was completely exhausted was an understatement, but I push through anyways. I have to get stronger. That's what matters especially for what I have to go through in my early years.
My dad and I say our goodbyes and we head home once again. When we get home, I eat dinner and do some more studying. I also do some exercises to hopefully increase my tails strength, since I don't actually know how. So I try tugging on it and push through the pain. Eventually, I hope to be able to hang from it without any drawbacks, but that'll take a while.
Day 3
The same routines happens from yesterday and I push through much harder.
Roshi doubled the weight on my turtle shell to 100 pounds. It is much harder to move around. I also challenge myself further without using any energy amplification to help my body endure the training. Purely working on my body. I still have meditation and mental training to increase my handle on my power, especially the anger that I feel inside of me.
This power is sometimes suffocating as it sometimes surfaces during training and I land some hits on my dad and Krillin. Roshi decides that he will merely observe and point out some mistakes because of his years of experience.
I feel such rage and anger when begin to draw more and more power. I refrain from doing so because I could lose control. Gohan has felt this all his life and had no control over it unless his emotional state was in crisis, forcing himself to use the power within him.
How interesting.
Meditation training will be much more important to try and control it completely, but I'm not sure if I will be able to. At least until I'm an adult again.
Another day in the books and more tail training to go along with it.
My mother is very happy with my progress in my work and keeps allowing me to go outside to play as long as I keep this up.
That won't be a problem for a long while.
Day 6
It has been quite a few days and I am starting to feel so much stronger than before. I am given the last two days as meditation training along with sparring with my dad for the entire time which is incredibly difficult as it should be. The turtle shell on my back is increased once more from the last day to 150 pounds which is about 3x my body weight. My dad usually just hides it somewhere in the woods so my mother won't accidentally find it.
My dad is also considerably stronger than the original timeline which makes me happier since we could hopefully avoid some deaths when Vegeta arrives.
Training with my dad was hard, incredibly hard. He doesn't hold back too much because he knows of my strength and potential. My teachers have all been helping me with the more martial arts style so that I won't be so sloppy in a fight.
I hated feeling weak so I pushed myself beyond my limits and I was even able to land some hits on my dad. He was proud at my progress and we continue until the tournament comes.
Tournament Day
Finally, the day has come. All the work I put in for the entire week will be tested here, although I don't think the kids there will really give me a challenge, but you never know.
I was never hurt too badly during training since they didn't want to push me too hard at my young age so I never really got any zenkais, or any major power boost. I might be at around half my dad's power I think.
We all meet up at the tournament grounds at South City which wasn't too far.
The city inside was pretty incredible. I never actually been to a city in this world, but it's much more than what the anime gave credit for it. Futuristic is one word for it and I'd have to agree.
That wasn't exactly what I was trying to keep my thoughts on though because I need to focus here.
My dad signs me up as the person in charge of registrations gives me a incredulous look.
"Sure. What's his name and how old is he". The man asks with a pen in hand.
"Gohan, and 2 years old". Goku said nonchalantly.
"2?! Are you crazy?!" The man said in shock.
"I'm sure. He will do just fine". Goku smiles.
The man turned to me.
"Are you sure? You could get hurt badly". He asks me directly.
"Yes. I am sure". I smile at him.
He sighs deeply.
"If you say so, you have to sign this waiver then". The man hands my dad.
"Sure". My dad takes the paper and signs it, albeit almost not readable.
"Very well. The spectators entrance is to the right and participants to the left". The man directs us.
"Alright Gohan. Do your best and we will be watching!" Goku puts a hand on my shoulder as they walk to their designated area. I walk to my own.
Goku takes a look at the ring and it's about the same size as the one he fought on with a massive crowd. Bigger than the world martial arts tournament. The gang all takes a seat and the man beside him strikes a conversation.
"Hey, man. You got a kid fighting today?" The man asks.
Goku turns to face him and responds.
"Yeah. This is his first time fighting other kids his age, what about you?" Goku asks.
"No. My daughter isn't old enough to be fighting yet, but she shows an interest, so I'm just showing her some younger kids fighting". The man gestures to his daughter beside him.
"Oh! I swear kids are getting into martial arts younger than when I used to". Goku laughs.
"Right. It's a growing sport. My name is Mark and this is my daughter, Videl". Mark introduces them both.
"Hi". Videl looks over and then back to the empty ring.
"She's quite into martial arts much younger than I was. But I won't let her fight until she is much older". Mark says.
"I'm Goku and my son is currently getting qualified". Goku introduces himself.
"Wait, Son Goku?! The winner of the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament!" Mark almost shouts luckily no one around them listened in.
"Yeah, that's me!" He laughs.
"Oh, wow. Maybe we can train together sometime, it just gets hard especially with taking care of Videl alone". Mark admits.
Goku sympathizes with the man and can tell that he is stronger than the average human, but not by a whole lot.
"Sure, that sounds good". Goku accepts the offer.
-MNL-
"Alright kids, so the way to qualify is quite simple. All you have to do is punch this machine and you will be placed accordingly. The top 8 results will move on to the stage". The announcer explains.
Wait that voice is extremely familiar. It's the announcer from the WMATS. Wow. Small world.
I decide to go last to gauge the other kids. Not wanting to stick out too much. The other kids don't think much of me since I'm pretty small and assume I won't make it beyond this stage.
Most of the kids scored around 3-6, but a few stood out. By a good margin. The most that stood out was 45 and that was some kid with tape on his hands. I decide to make my presence known using about half my strength I jabbed the machine.
It read 105.
Everyone was shocked that a small kid was able to generate that much power and they decide for me to do it again.
It read 100.
They write down the answer since it wasn't a fluke or broken, so I move on as the highest score. A little confident, but nothing wrong with that.
The fighters all move into another room where we would draw slips to decide who we fight.
"Okay! So you guys are going to draw from this box and it will have a number 1-8 to decide your place in the bracket, so I will call you up by name to draw". The announcer clears his throat.
"Ranig" He calls out and a dinosaur looking person comes up to draw a 3. That actually looks similar to Giran from the 21st martial arts tournament, but there are lots of dinosaurs out there so who knows.
-MNL-
"Hey Goku look over there". Krillin points across to the other set of seats inside.
"Woah, is that Giran?" He asks.
"It looks like it". Master Roshi chimes in.
"Huh, who knew he had a kid". Goku rubs his head.
-MNL-
"Manu". He calls again as a shirtless kid with a turban wrapped around his head walks forward. That kid also looks familiar. Maybe I'm just imagining things. He draws a 5.
"Nafani". A girl walks forward drawing a number. 6. Okay. I don't recognize her either, obviously.
"Cheppa". He calls as an older kid walks forward. That sounds a lot like Chappa, so he must be his son, but I never knew he'd have one. What's going on. He draws a 7.
"Putam". The same kid with the wraps on his arms walk forward. He draws an 8.
"Jenna". A girl with short blonde hair with blue eyes walk forward drawing a 1.
"Jenny". She walks forward who looks almost exactly the same if it weren't for her name printed on her chest. She draws a 4.
So twins? That's cool.
"Son Gohan". I'm brought out of my thoughts as I walk forward somewhat struggling to reach the table where the box is, so I climb up and draw a number. Number 2. I'm up against Jenna.
I can sense energy from her, but it isn't much at all. Just barely over the other kids who tried punching the machine.
Jenna vs Gohan
Ranig vs Jenny
Manu vs Nafani
Cheppa vs Putam
"Well, it looks like I'm against you, squirt". She looks down at me in an emotionless tone.
If she wasn't insulting me, then I'd find her pretty hot, but that would be weird. I don't even know how old she is and my mental state is 21. Would I be some sort of pedophile in a sense?
Maybe, but this is anime. It doesn't exactly always follow common rules, especially in Japan. Things sure are wild, but my child body makes everything confusing.
That's not important right now.
"Don't think you can beat me because I'm short". I respond glaring back at her.
"That wasn't all. I'm stronger than you too, so I won't hurt you too badly". She smiles.
"We'll see about that, Jenna". I smile back.
The announcer walks up to me in private.
"Hey. I didn't want to put you on the spot earlier, but are you related to Son Goku?" He asks.
I smile.
"Yes, he is my dad and he's here watching.
He is shocked and happy to see that he has a son.
"Well it's nice to meet you and if you're anything like him. I know you are going to do quite well". He gives me a thumbs up.
The announcer walks onto the stage showing the bracket to the crowd.
"Gohan is going to be the first fight? That's so awesome". Goku exclaims.
"Looks like we'll see your boy in action". Mark adds.
"Alright everybody. Our first match will be against Jenna and she's 16 years old. Her opponent is Son Gohan and he's 2 years old, but get this folks. He is the son of Son Goku the winner of the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament!" The announcer states to the crowd.
The crowd is shocked to know that someone so young would be fighting and even upset that they'd let someone like me inside, but that is quickly diminished as they hear I am the champion's son and they cheer for me.
"I knew you were young, but 2? This won't be much. You may be his son, but you are still a pipsqueak". Jenna gets into her stance and I do the same.
"You'll regret those words, girl". I say with slight resentment.
"Let the match… begin!" He announces as the bell goes off.
She rushes me with a punch and I dodge effortlessly taking a step back. She does the same with a left hook followed by a kick which I dodge both.
"It seems like you are struggling a bit". I laugh.
"Shut up!" She practically growled rushing blindly as I step out of her way tripping her with my leg.
"You should just forfeit or I'll push you out". I say.
The crowd is greatly impressed that someone so young could fight like this and they cheer.
Mark has no words.
"I never knew your son was so young!" He exclaims.
"Don't worry. You can see how well he is doing". Goku states.
"Right". He responds watching the fight with Videl watching in amazement. Someone her age is fighting like that so why couldn't she? There will be a conversation about it later she thought.
I punch Jenna right in the gut sending her back against the edge of the ring. Looks like I held back too much.
She gets nervous.
"Look kid," She says in a hushed tone where no one but I can hear her. "If you let me win this, then I'll let you take a look on what's underneath". She smirks.
She's not serious, is she? I'm greatly surprised and even a bit mad that she would try to bribe me.
"Tempting, but I'll have to pass". I say sending a gust of wind by punching forward knocking her out of the ring.
I never thought of this, but I assume there is prize money since she would resort to such cowardly tactics. Plus I'm still conflicted because my mind and body are not completely the same. You could say that I'm 21, but at the same time my body is 2. I just don't know what I should feel in this situation. Should I be attracted to teenagers? Or should I stick with adults because of my past life? I'm starting to lead towards the former since my past life is exactly how it sounds, in the past.
I'm not the same person I used to be. Not even close, but I'm not exactly Gohan either.
"Jenna is out! Son Gohan is the winner!" The announcer exclaimed causing the crowd to burst into cheering. I walk back to the waiting room.
Jenny just glares at me as I walk back in. The other fighters are impressed but doesn't approach me, even after hearing that I'm Goku's son which was relieving.
"The next match is about to begin! Ranig at 9 years old, the son of Giran, who participated in the 21st WMAT against Jenny. She's the twin of Jenna". The announcer introduces them.
"Ah. He does look like Giran". Master Roshi states.
"Yeah". Both Goku and Krillin agree.
"Let the match...begin!" He starts the match as the bell rung again.
Jenny rushes forward sending a punch to Ranig's face and he catches it. I can feel that this match is going to be one-sided which turns out to be true.
Ranig manages to block all her strikes and he lands his own wearing her down quickly.
He finishes the fight quickly throwing her out of the ring.
The announcer declares him the winner and they declare him the winner.
Manu and Nafani's fight is also the same since Manu is completely out matching her. Manu is actually the son of Nam where Nafani is the daughter of Ranfan. Who woulda thought.
This should get interesting.
The next fight is the son of King Chappa, who is named Cheppa and he is against Putam. The son of Pamput.
Their fight is much closer and is quite exciting to watch them duke it out on stage. It seems that Putam has more of an advantage because he isn't as winded as Cheppa, who is clearly getting tired. Putam eventually wins the close fight sending Cheppa across the ring and out of bounds.
My next fight is up against Ranig. I wonder if he has that gum thing that he used against Goku in the tournament.
"Let the match… begin!" The announcer starts the match and the bell rung.
I decide to charge forward punching Ranig in the gut causing him to stumble back and counters with a kick which I block with my right arm.
"This will be fun". He states sending a punch in my direction as I dodge to the left bringing my own leg for a strike against his side. He gathers himself as he is on the edge of the arena.
"I didn't want to use this, but here I go!" He states aloud as a pink substances flies out of his mouth.
That must be it.
I decide to stop holding back and use my full strength to dodge which causes me to practically disappear from view. I reappear in front of Ranig and push him out of bounds.
Ranig looks dazed as he doesn't know what really happened.
"That was some nice moves you got there. Good fight". Ranig stated.
I smile at him.
"You too, Ranig". I extend a hand to pull him up as we walk back to the waiting room.
The fight between Manu and Putam is close, but ultimately Manu wins the battle against him. His power was impressive and Namu was close behind, but his superior fighting style and techniques won him the match.
"Alright, ladies and gentlemen! The final match is about to begin! Namu vs Gohan! Let the match begin!" The bell rung and Manu charges straight for me. I dodge easily and aims a punch for the side of his torso and it lands causing him to stumble back.
It looks like there won't be any strong fighters, but I kinda already knew that.
He charges at me again trying to hit me. I dodge each strike. This starts getting incredibly repetitive and I charge forward with a kick to the face out of bounds.
"Oh my! Manu is knocked from the ring. Son Gohan is the winner of the tournament!" The announcer exclaimed causing the crowd to roar in cheer.
I smile outward, but on the inside I was quite disappointed. There was no one to test me during this tournament. The only thing that was really notable was that girl who offered to see her naked body and dodging the binding gum.
"Here you go, Gohan. 10,000 Zeni". My eyes widen. That was quite a bit for a small league tournament. About 1,000 dollars in american currency back in my old life from simple conversion.
I walk back to the waiting area to leave the arena, but then a crowd forms.
"Good fight, Gohan. I hope to see you again for another one". Manu bows and heads off to see his father.
Cheppa and Putam compliments my victory and leaves the area.
Everyone leaves besides Jenny and Jenna.
"At least I lost to the person who won the tournament". Jenna admits leaning down kissing me on the cheek. "You know if we ever meet again when you're older. The offer still stands". Jenna winks at me playfully laughing in the distance with Jenny following suit.
I roll my eyes.
As if I'd want that, I think.
"You did great, Gohan". My dad congratulates me.
Some time has gone by and we are outside of the tournament grounds.
"He's right. Good job". Master Roshi states along with Krillin saying a similar compliment.
"That was an awesome performance Gohan. I know you will be an even greater fighter when you grow up". Mark says and I instantly recognize him as Hercule Satan.
I look down to see a small girl who hides behind her father when I look at her.
"No need to be shy, Videl". Mark reassures her.
"I'm Videl". She says removing herself from her father.
"I'm Gohan. You know if you want to be a fighter too, then you should go for it". I state trying to push her into the field of martial arts since I know from the anime that she is quite into it.
She blushes at me.
"I will!" She exclaims.
"Well it's about time I head home with Gohan. I got to reconnect with the parents and they are doing well". Goku announces calling nimbus.
"It's been fun. Catch you guys later". Krillin and Roshi heads to the island.
"I will see you later for some training Mark. I gave you the address". Goku states and I quirk an eyebrow.
"Right, I will see you then. Videl could play with Gohan which is always a plus". Mark states as they leave as well.
"What was that about, dad?" I ask.
"Oh, he wanted to do some training, so I agreed and they will come over every once in a while". Goku explains.
"Oh okay". I respond.
"Well, let's not keep your mother waiting". Goku laughs.
"Right". I chuckle hopping on nimbus as we fly away.
-MNL-
"So, do you like Gohan? He's a nice boy". Mark asks his daughter.
"Yes.. I mean no". She blushes at the question. Videl finds it amazing that he is her age and an awesome fighter already which greatly interests her.
Mark just laughs.
'Gohan, huh? So young and an extremely powerful fighter. I wonder what he'll be like when he grows up?' Mark thought.
I think about the road ahead knowing what's going to come. Meeting Videl sooner will likely cause some changes, but who really knows on what scale. Besides she's incredibly adorable as a toddler.
The time of peace ends.
As the events of Dragon Ball Z are about to begin.
I know it's been awhile since my last update, but I wanted to do this chapter right and introduce a few characters early on.
The kids are all OC's and I didn't just want the kids to have random names like Kid#3. That would be quite boring, but the children of previous contestants of the tournaments.
Dragon Ball Z will begin next chapter, so those who are waiting will no longer have to. Next chapter will be posted soon.
I hope you enjoyed.
Thanks for reading, and I will see you all in the next chapter.
