Chapter 7: Raditz vs Piccolo and Goku

Gohan stopped crying immediately after they left the island. He was just hanging their in the grip of his uncle while he flew. Raditz noticed that he stopped crying and looked down at him.

"So you finally stopped all your crying? Its about time. You have saiyan blood in you. You shouldn't be crying at all you should be fighting. What has Kakarot been doing with you."

Gohan snorted. "What has your father taught you? How to kidnap kids? You really shouldn't judge anyone."

Raditz growled. "Watch how you talk to me boy. You may be my nephew, but I will hurt you."

"You can only hurt someone who's weaker than you." Gohan muttered to himself.

"What was that?" Raditz growled out.

"What was that?" Gohan mimicked

Raditz narrowed his eyes. "You're really starting to bug me!"

"You're really starting to bug me."

Raditz face contorted in anger. "You're pissing me off! Say one more thing and I'll rip off your tail!

"Okay, okay." Gohan said crossing his arms childishly. "Do you really have to carry me though? I can fly myself you know."

"Don't try to get away. I'll catch you as soon as you try." Raditz said as he let go of Gohan. Gohan stayed afloat and flew beside his uncle at the same speed. Raditz started speeding up after seeing his nephew was easily staying at his pace. Gohan matched his pace every time Raditz sped up."That's not bad. It looks like your father at least taught you how to fly well."

"I taught myself how to fly."

Raditz raised his eye brows. "Really now? Well it is normal for saiyans to just know how to do things like fly, fight, and use ki, so don't think you're special." They finally arrived where his space pod was at. "This is where we're landing." He said as he dropped from the ground. Gohan dropped down as well and started walking towards the space pod.

"Where do you think you're going?" Raditz asked frowning.

"I wanna check out your space ship. I've never seen one before." Gohan said.

Raditz looked confused. "Where was all this spunk when I took you from Kakarot? You were crying and now its like you're a different person. You actually seem okay with being kidnapped."

Gohan shrugged. "I have faith in my father to save me from you." He jumped down into the crater and inspected the ship. "Wow this is awesome, but its pretty small. How did you expect dad to fit in here with you anyway?"

"I would've called for another ship. I might not need him now though. You would make an excellent replacement."

Gohan chuckled. "What makes you think I'll go willingly? Don't say you'll force me because that's not happening."

Raditz took a step forward then moved as fast as he could. He tried to punch Gohan and teach him a lesson for underestimating him, but Gohan caught the blow easily. Gohan disappeared from view shocking Raditz even more. "Where did he go?"

"Behind you!" Gohan said as his uncle turned around with wide eyes. He saw Gohan sticking his tongue out at him while pulling his eyelid down.

"How did you do that? The scouter didn't even pick it up."

Gohan smirked. "I'm stronger than you know. Like I said earlier. I'm not going with you and you can't force me. It is okay for me to look at the inside of your ship? I never seen one before, so I wanna know how it works and looks from the inside."

Raditz still shocked just nodded and opened up the space craft. 'How is he so strong? I was sure that Kakarot was the strongest here.' Just then he heard something coming from his scouter.

(With Goku)

"I think we should sneak up on him. That will be the best approach." Goku said.

Piccolo shook his head. "No good. He has a device on his eye that can detect anyone. He'd know we were coming a mile away."

Goku nodded. "Then I guess we just approach head on and attack."

"Agreed."

A few minutes later Goku and Piccolo landed in front of Radtiz.

"Well well well. Look who dropped in. Its baby brother and he decided to bring the green man. I was wondering who that second insignificant blip on my scouter might be, but I must confess that I didn't expect it to be you. So what brings you here Kakarot? Did you already kill one hundred earthlings?"

"I'm here to get my son back! Where is he?" Goku asked.

"I thought you would say that. I strongly recommend that you join us baby brother."

Goku glared. "I would never join you. As far as I'm concerned I have no brother."

"Fine." Radtiz said with narrowed eyes. "I didn't come here to kill you, but it seems I have no choice."

"Enough!" Piccolo yelled while taking off his weighted shoulder pads and turban. "I didn't come here for idle chatter!"

'At least I'm not the only one tired of all the talking.' Gohan thought as he peeked from the crater trying to remain unseen. 'Actually I rather prefer talking then bloodshed. I hope I can keep my emotions in check.'

"I didn't know you wore weighted training clothes too Piccolo."

"What? Thought you were the only one?" Piccolo replied. "Yeah I feel much lighter now."

Radtiz narrowed his eyes. 'His power level went up to 400 now.'

Goku took off his weighted clothing and got into a stance.

Raditz glared at his opponents. "A few weights wont help you fools! I'm still ten times stronger than you."

Goku smirked. "Power means nothing. Not when you can outsmart your opponent."

"You know what. I don't even want you joining us now. A fool like you would only slow us down. Prepare to die brother!" Raditz yelled as he dashed forward faster than his opponents could see. He ran past them, turned around, and buried his elbow's in the backs of his opponents.

Both Goku and Piccolo flew forward. Goku did a handspring and got back to his feet while Piccolo just turned and regained his footing.

'He's so fast! I never seen anyone move like that!' Goku thought astonished.

'Its like he disappeared. I couldn't trace his movements at all!' Piccolo thought with his mouth opened in shock.

Raditz chuckled. "Well you know how to take a punch. That should only make this more enjoyable.

He flew faster than the two of them could track and punched Goku in the stomach doubling him over. He ran towards Piccolo and tried to kick him, but the namekian dodged the hit.

Goku ran behind him with a punch aimed for the back of his head. Raditz ducked under the hit and elbowed his brother in the stomach.

Piccolo raised his foot towards Raditz face while he was still ducking. Raditz caught the leg as he raised up and swung Piccolo into Goku sending them sprawling across the grass.

They both got up and rushed at Raditz. They were simultaneously throwing punches and kicks, but Raditz dodged each hit.

Raditz flew up in the sky to avoid them. They flew up after him, but Radtiz only smirked and lowered his hands towards his incoming opponents.

Raditz let a purple blast from both of his hands go. Piccolo and Goku both dodged and the blasts hit two nearby mountains destroying them instantly.

'I could do that too Raditz. Thats not impressive.' Gohan thought to himself. 'Now that I think about it I wonder what the limits to my power is. I never actually went all out. I never had a physical opponent to spar with either.' Gohan sighed to himself. 'I need friends.'

Raditz disappeared and kicked Goku in the back sending him to the ground.

Goku got up and looked around. "Piccolo are you alright? He asked concerned. His eyes widened when he saw the state Piccolo was in.

Piccolo stood up with a missing arm. He had purple blood leaking from what was left of his arm. "Don't worry its not as bad as it looks. I'm not out of this fight yet.

Raditz laughed hysterically. "Has anyone seen my arm? Raditz asked between laughs. "You can't miss it its green!" He continued his laugh as Goku and Piccolo glared at him.

Gohan snickered quietly to himself. 'Maybe I should make puns too. Mystic and Majunior said I will have many battles. Maybe I should be the pun guy. That would be fun.'

"Okay please tell me that pathetic attack wasn't the best you two could do." Raditz said as he finally got his laughter under contol.

Piccolo glared at his opponent. "Okay Goku if you have any new techniques you've been waiting to use now is the time."

Goku chuckled humorlessly. "Sorry I wish I did."

Piccolo smirked. "You slacker. While you've been taking it easy I've been developing a new attack.

"So do you think this attack of yours will be able to do some damage Piccolo?" Goku asked never taking his eyes off his brother.

Piccolo nodded. "Yes."

"And you can do it with only one arm?" Goku questioned.

"Yeah thats no problem. The problem is it takes me a while to gather the energy for it, so you'll have to last against him alone for five minutes. Its your decision." Piccolo said.

Goku turned towards Piccolo. "Alright. If you're sure it'll work then I will hold him off.

Piccolo looked at him out of the corner of his eye. "Well the truth is its untested. I never tried it against an opponent. I was hoping to test it out on you."

Goku narrowed his eyes. "I see, but now you're using it too help me. You must be terribly disappointed.

Piccolo smirked. "No this will be a good test and if it works I'll be using it on you next."

Gohan grinned. 'Oh you'll be using it on him sooner than you think.'

Goku chuckled. "Figures."

"You know that wasn't actually intended to be funny." Piccolo deadpanned.

Raditz narrowed his eyes at them. 'What are they laughing at? Strategizing a plan no doubt. It'll be pointless anyway.'

"I guess I'll be watching out for you next time we meet, but for now wish me luck."

Piccolo nodded. "Alright. Do your best Goku."

Goku dashed forward towards his brother while Piccolo gathered the necessary energy he needed.

Goku was throwing punches and kicks as fast as he could. Raditz was able to dodge every hit while dealing out his own hits. Raditz kicked him away.

As Goku was flying backwards he put his hand on the ground and bounced himself up in the air. He cupped his hands together at his sides.

"Ka...Me..."

Raditz looked shocked. 'Whats going on? His power level is skyrocketing. 900! 950!"

"Ha...Me..."

"But how?! He knows how to raise his power level by concentrating his energy into one shot!"

A glowing ball of ki was in Goku's hands as he got ready to thrust it towards his brother.

Raditz scouter went off again and he turned to Piccolo. "His power level has gone up as well! Its over a thousand! Unbelievable and its still going up."

"Ha!" Goku yelled throwing the blast at Radtiz. Raditz jumped away and started running, but Goku moved his arms so the blast would follow Raditz instead of hitting the ground.

Raditz was growing more frustrated. "Enough of this!" He yelled as he stopped and held his hands out to block the blast. The collision made a massive explosion as smoke filled the air hiding Raditz from view.

When the smoke cleared Raditz was shown slightly crouching with one hand extended. Smoke was coming off his hand as he was panting.

Goku glared as sweat started dripping off his forehead. "Man he canceled it out. Piccolo had better hurry."

Raditz shot his own blast at Goku tearing his clothes and knocking him out of the sky.

Gohan gritted his teeth. 'I wish I could help right now! I don't know how much longer I can sit here and do nothing.'

Raditz rand over and grabbed Goku's gi. He had a hand up like he was preparing to finish him when his scouter went off again. He turned to Piccolo to see him smirking.

"Damn it! I underestimated these guys. 1330! I can't block that!" Raditz said as he grew a little nervous.

Piccolo was laughing like a madman and his index and middle finger were glowing.

Raditz scowled. "Alright green man lets see what you got!"

"Its all yours!" Piccolo yelled. "Special beam cannon!" He released a yellow and purple spiral beam toward Raditz.

Raditz moved to the side, but the blast still hit the side of his shoulder pad slightly nicking his shoulder. The blast continued and crashed into a mountain destroying it on contact.

Piccolo's eyes widened as his mouth jaw dropped. "He dodged it. That means he's...faster than the speed of light!" He stuttered out.

Raditz pointed to his shoulder. "That was an impressive little trick. It seems you have even pierced my armor."

Piccolo couldn't lose the utter terror that was spread across his face. "It was all for nothing."

Raditz smirked. "Now I have a little move for you. I wanted to show you earlier, but I didn't get the chance too." He raised his hand as a ball of ki started to form. "Double Sunday!" He yelled, but as soon as he was about to throw it his face contorted in pain.

Goku was behind him laughing with his tail in hand. "You were careless. I'll never forget how bad it hurt when someone use to grab my tail."

Goku squeezed harder making Raditz fall to the ground on all fours. "Piccolo do you think you can manage that attack one more time!"

Piccolo chuckled. "Yes Goku. With pleasure. I see you had a surprise attack after all you sly dog. Now hold him tight. This is the last time I can do this." He started gathering energy again.

Raditz looked up with pain etched across his face. "Please Kakarot don't tell me you're going to go through with this. I am your brother."

Goku glared. "Brother? Don't be ridiculous. You kidnapped my son and tried to kill me. If I remember right you also said you were going to exterminate every human on this planet."

"I was bluffing. I would've done or said anything to get you to join me I swear it." Raditz said as he begged to be let go.

"Don't listen to him Goku." Piccolo pleaded. "He'll say anything to get loose."

"I was never going to kill you or the boy. Once I was sure I couldn't persuade you to join us I was going to leave this planet for good. I could never hurt my flesh and blood I swear it. I swear it Kakarot.

"Do you promise to leave?" Goku asked thinking over his decision to let go.

"Of course. I'll tell the others that you won't join."

Piccolo looked frantic. "No Goku don't listen to him. Don't let go!"

Gohan clenched his fists. 'Please don't let go father. I know in the universe of Mystic and Majunior that you let go, but please be different from their version of you. Please hold on to his tail.'

Raditz closed both his eyes. "I'll never come back to this planet again I promise!"

Goku let go of the tail and Raditz stood up and elbowed him in the face. Sending him flying backwards. Raditz ran over to Goku's down body and started to stomp him while laughing.

"Damn it Goku you've always been too soft." Piccolo said.

Raditz was laughing even more when Goku started crying out in pain. He stomped on his chest a few more times. "You sentimental fool. I am a first class warrior and won't hesitate to kill my own brother if need be. Now beg for your life!"

Raditz kept stomping on the chest and ribs of Goku making him scream out in anguish. He looked at Piccolo with a smirk. "Come on try that trick one more time, or maybe you can't handle it."

Gohan was clawing the earth. His teeth were clenched tight and his face was contorted in rage. 'I can't just sit here anymore.'

'Then go! You can interfere now!' Mystic and Majuniors voice rang through his head. Gohan nodded and jumped out of the crater with a blue aura around him.

Piccolo and Radtiz looked on in shock.

Gohan glared at Radtiz with hate in his eyes.

Goku turned his head over at Gohan. "Gohan daddy can't get up right now. Run away Gohan."

Gohan continued to glare at Radtiz. "Leave them alone!" He yelled as he rushed forward and punched Raditz in the jaw sending him flying.

Raditz got up and grabbed his now broken jaw. He walked towards Gohan. He dashed forward and tried to hit him but stopped when his scouter started going off. "Your power level is rising like crazy!

Gohan flew forward and headbutted Raditz in the chest cracking his armor. Raditz stood up and held his injured chest with one hand while being slightly hunched over.

Gohan pointed his hand towards Raditz and charged a large ki blast, but before he could launch it he fainted out of nowhere, but not before sending a mental message to his uncle.

Radtiz walked towards him and staring at him out of confusion. Goku thought Raditz was going to harm him, so he got up grabbed him and held him tight, so he couldn't move.

"Piccolo hurry up and fire that beam." Goku said pleadingly.

Piccolo laughed. "Goku sometimes you amaze even me!

"Kakarot how do you plan to dodge this attack!"

Goku laughed. "I don't!

Raditz eyes widened. "You fool! You're going to kill us both?"

Goku smiled. "If that's the only way to kill you then so be it."

"So you're going to sacrifice yourself. How noble of you Goku and how convenient for me." Piccolo said.

Raditz kept struggling."1440? No if that hits we're finished. Kakarot if you don't let me go we'll both die."

Goku smirked. "Whats wrong? You seem a little worried brother."

Piccolo threw his arm towards Raditz and Goku piercing them both with his special beam cannon.

Gohan awoke to see Majunior and Mystic. "Whats going on? I was just fighting Raditz right?" Why am I here?"

"We pulled you in here. You almost wasted Raditz and we couldn't have that." Majunior answered.

Gohan chuckled nervously while scratching the back of his head. "Sorry I got a little carried away."

Mystic put a hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry everything is going as planned. Piccolo killed both Radtiz and dad."

"Yeah and Piccolo spilled the beans about the dragonballs to a dying Radtiz already. Vegeta and Nappa will be landing in one years time. You're already strong enough to beat Nappa in a fight, but you're not quite ready for Vegeta yet." Majunior said. "Don't worry though. You will be more than ready for him with this year of nonstop training. You'll even be ready to fight the Ginyu force."

Gohan looked confused. "Ginyu force?"

Mystic shook his head. "You'll find out about them later." He looked at Majunior. "How much of our memories should we give him this time?"

Majunior thought hard about it. "I say we share the memories for the second half of the year he will be spending with Piccolo. We can show him the battle with Nappa and Vegeta in about six months."

Mystic nodded as Gohan looked even more confused. "Who is Nappa and Vegeta?"

"They are the two saiyans that are comrades with Raditz and they are both more powerful than him."

Gohan frowned. "About how many battles will I be involved in?"

Mystic and Majunior smiled sadly. "A lot." They said simultaneously.

Gohan nodded. "Well as long as I have you two I'll be okay."

Mystic smiled. "I think its good for you to go back."

"Why did you pull me here in the first place and how did you do it?

Majunior sighed. "You didn't need to see dad die and there was no need to let Raditz knock you out."

Mystic nodded. "Yeah we've been trying to see what all we could accomplish while being in here. We're able to forcefully bring you here when you're awake now, but we'll only do it under emergencies.

Gohan smiled. "Thank you then. I appreciate the thought."

Mystic patted him on the back. "No problem. Now within this year of training you can do things differently than we did."

Gohan wrinkled his nose. "What do you mean?"

"We mean that you don't have to follow what we did, because you don't need to. You know how to survive in the wild already and you know how to fight, so Piccolo doesn't have to go over everything with you. Use this time however you see fit. This is something you can do differently than what we did. You can do whatever you like."

Gohan smiled. "I think I have an idea."

Thanks for all the views, reviews, favs and follows. I really appreciate it.

Sunshineyday: Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter. I had Gohan follow Mystics and Majuniors plan. For now he listens and does what they say, but soon that could change.

Gohanforever: I'm glad you like the idea of my story and the direction its going in. I hope you continue to read the story.

Pir84lyfe: Oh the yoshi questions are always being asked somewhere lol. Gohan being bored might happen a little more often, but I'll find a way to have him relieve his boredom.

SSJ Mirai Gohan: Since you loved the chapter so much I released this one a little earlier than I wanted. :)

ZaynNaz: Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed the last chapter! I never thought Goku was that dumb to begin with. He was ignorant of a lot of things, but I think he should still be smart enough to put together certain pieces if they were laid out in front of him. I enjoy a level headed mature Goku as well so you're not the only one. I know what you mean with having something significant that's only unique to my story. I plan to make a some comedy scenes, but as for that unique something, I'm still trying to figure something out.

Jack 905: I appreciate you taking the time to read and review my story. Gohan will be both a scholar and a warrior and he will go super saiyan alot earlier than he did in dbz. There will definitely be at odds during the android saga. I have a great idea planned out for it!

Guest: This Gohan will be very powerful, but the sync will definitely have it draw backs and I plan to explore that in later chapters.

Cruzerblade: Thanks I'm glad you enjoy the story so far.

Crystalzap and JollyPayton: Well Mystic is kind of cocky. He was cocky in his fight with Cell, and with Buu after his potential was unlocked, so that cockiness is inside of him. I wanted to add something a little different with Gohan and make him a smart ass lol. I thought it would be funny. In all honesty I really don't see it as being cocky or a jerk though. That wasn't what I was aiming for. I was more so trying to make him childish and immature since he is a little kid.
