The training has begun for Empress Fasha, Prince Goku, Chi-Chi of the Ox kingdom, and a new kid from a monastery, named Krillin, as they all were taught, and trained by the Turtle Hermit himself, Roshi.

And he was proving himself as a competent sensei for them all, regardless of his perverted traits, as the adult magazines that Krillin gave to him showed them.

Which was why, even though Chi-Chi still trusted him as a Martial Arts Sensei, she kept her distance from his perverted antics, lest she requires bleach for her brain, or get caught in the middle of his antics. Not that he planned on such while around her, since he knew she'd be too young for that.

Besides, he's still friends with the Ox king. And he'd rather remain that way.

After they were brought in, and made his students, Roshi decided to take them to a more necessary training ground, which was off his Island. So he packed up his house, which was also able to be packed into a small Capsule like the other Capsule Corp made items, (This being a golden yellow, while saying that it's a house capsule.) before they were on the motor boat to a different place, that could be on the continent, for them to train on.

After all, an Island like Roshi's, could be too small to train on. Something that Fasha understood as the obvious problem.

Once they got to the next training area, which happened to be a much larger island that they were now on that happened to be populated, and after some scouting of it, happens to be peaceful, regardless of being near a volcano.

After that, they learned a little more about Krillin, where they learned that he studied at the Orin Temple, since he was four. Which helped them know how much he seems to know about how to throw his punch, and kicks. And they also knew that judging by his size, he was the smallest of the monks. Which would be impressive if he learns well in his training with Roshi.

After that, they did some one-hundred-meter sprinting to demonstrate their speed in running. With Krillin going first, and impressing them by doing it in 10.4 seconds. Only to be surprised when Goku did it in eight seconds, before Chi-Chi surprised them both by doing it in the same amount of seconds as Goku did, after her cape was off. Guess all the running around that she did, inadvertently prepared her for this moment.

But that paled in comparison to Roshi, who did the sprint in 5.6 seconds. While Fasha did it in 3.5 seconds. Much to even his surprise. Which is why, even though she was also learning, and training alongside the trio, she was sitting out some of the challenges since she would've squashed all of them.

It was after that sprinting challenge, and being taught about pushing themselves to beyond the limit, to run faster, before they proceeded to do a little challenge with Krillin, and Chi-Chi. Which was pretty creative in Goku, and Fasha's eyes.

Roshi put a Kanji on one of the round stones, before he ended up throwing it into one of the forested sections of the Island, before telling each of them that they must find the stone, and bring it back to him, in order to be given some dinner time with him. While the loser, is sitting that dinner out.

Which was a huge shame for Goku, and Krillin, since they did want to eat, and was feeling a little hungry, while Chi-Chi was the chef that was cooking, since she had decent enough experience in cooking food, even though she too was gonna be looking for the stone on the island, alongside Fasha, in the sunset.

All while Fasha was rooting for Goku to win the competition, despite herself competing, as they all were now looking for the stone in the island as it was sunset. Which wasn't much of an easy task.

Krillin however, was attempting to see if he can cheat his way to victory, by using a similar stone, before writing a similar Kanji on it to fool Roshi into giving him the win, but he saw right through that since Krillin's handwriting wasn't that accurate enough to fool even him.

"Serves you right." Fasha would think about saying, when she heard about that, as she isn't fond of cheating in competitions like this one.

Sure, she was a pragmatist who would do anything to win, like back when she was still in Bardock's team, but those were actual easy, or hard-fought battles that her team fought in, alongside herself, not to mention a war that she fought in on Earth, all of which had life-or-death battles inside.

And in a life-or-death battle, anything goes. No matter how well her foes fight, as well as herself, they can all still be beaten by a foe, should he dare to cheat, or fight pragmatically when he knows his terrain, or the weakness of her people. And there was a couple of those kinds of foes that she fought before on those Planets.

And none of them cared about the dishonor in doing such, as they just wanted to kill her, and her team, in their attempts to defend their planet, and Cities, to no avail. Which would be because they were too strong for them, and since they didn't fight with honor either. What is the point of it, if they aren't going to fight with honor too?

But here, it was a different story, as it is just a competition of who could find the stone first. And there won't be any cheaters in this one if she can help it. Especially if those cheaters are fighting her son.

Fortunately for her, Krillin lost in the end, since he tried to trick Goku with a fake throw, but Chi-Chi wasn't falling for it as she took him out in one punch after that, before getting the stone, and delivering it to Roshi before Fasha could.

Sure Goku, and herself, barely lost too, but he made a mental note not to fall for Krillin's trick again, (Especially when Fasha criticized him for that.) as Chi-Chi gained victory. It wasn't a complete loss though, as Chi-Chi did cook up a good meal that the group ate, (While they also took some meals from going out to eat. Which he, and Fasha bought plenty of when he learned of their appetite.) and gave some of her own food to Goku for his troubles. Which meant that Krillin got punished for his cheating attempts.

Now, Goku, Chi-Chi, Fasha, and Roshi, was getting the dinner while Krillin watched. Which had him feeling humiliated, and had him making a mental note, not to cheat next time. Especially while Chi-Chi, and Fasha, is around to punish him for it.

Afterwards, they did some rather mundane tasks together. And those tasks involved delivering the milk for stamina, plowing the fields with their bare hands instead of the tools that they could've used and working in construction for strength, or even getting chased at least one time by a dinosaur, the usual exorcise. (Not counting the last part.)

It immediately started to get a bit boring for them to try them out, considering that they weren't being taught any awesome moves similar to the Kamehameha, which was much to their dismay. But they felt that they were getting stronger from the experience, since it was merely exercise, that they were doing after all.

But in between those mundane exorcises, there was some sort of training that they also did, that also got brutal one time, and in Fasha's eyes, was not that bad by Saiyan standards.


"Now, I want you all to do at least ten laps in the lake. And try not to splash each other." Roshi said with Fasha by his side.

All while they all stood by the island's lake that looked huge. Probably up to a distance of at least two football fields in the students' eyes as they stripped into the buff together, leaving Fasha, and Roshi as the only ones dressed up. (Much to the relief of everyone nearby. At least for the latter.)

Even Chi-Chi herself was butt naked, which had her blushing since she was near Goku, and Krillin as she too was ready to swim in the lake. Sure, she could've run back and got herself a swimsuit for herself, and for Goku, and Krillin, but she wanted to show herself as a brave enough girl for Goku, and it'd waste time to grab the ones that could fit them all, and she remembered that she skinny dipped with Goku back in her castle's pool. So, she decided to swallow her nervousness, and strip to her birthday suit too. Even if she was naked near Krillin too.

Krillin had to say, she looked nice like that, though he still thinks Fasha also looks sexy even while wearing her clothes, but again, he felt that Goku would be protective of her, and his mom, and he would clobber him for any remark about how good they look, so he kept his mouth shut, and eyes averted.

All while Roshi was making sure to keep his eyes averted, especially from Chi-Chi for obvious reasons.

"Well that's a relief. Something easy, and is a nice change of pace." Krillin said.

Both Fasha, and Chi-Chi had some doubts that it was going to be easy though. The latter just had a bad feeling about this. All while Fasha was also feeling that there was a catch to that, as the swim through the lake couldn't be that simple.

"Ready, set, go!" Roshi called out, causing the boys, and girl, to dive in and swim their way through the lake. They were headed towards the other end as they were at a comfortable pace in the water.

"It seems like Roshi is rewarding us for good behavior. How nice of that guy." Krillin said.

"I know, it's like I'm bathing in the royal baths with mommy again." Goku said with a smile. Then he noticed how weary Chi-Chi was feeling. Making him weary as well. "You both feeling alright?"

"There's gotta be some catch to this little challenge. I don't think Roshi is letting us swim like this for the fun of it." Chi-Chi responded.

"What makes you wonder that?" Krillin asked.

All while Roshi then got 'reminded' of something that he should've told them, and Fasha. "Oh, and you all might wanna watch out! There are some big fish in there!"

Which caught the swimmers' attention, as well as Fasha's, as they were looking back. "What kind of fish?!" Krillin called back.

"Mostly Sharks!" Roshi said, while he was inwardly cringing. Mainly at what Fasha would think, who was also looking all over the surface of the lake for the shark.

At that, Goku, and Krillin was confused at what he meant by Sharks. (Though the former felt a little dread at that.) While Chi-Chi suddenly looked like her face paled a bit at what she was told.

After all, if someone were to say to the swimmer, that there was a lake dwelling shark that's in there, then the swimmer would've been terrified as Chi-Chi could be. Pretty much to where the boys could figuratively hear the music that could sound if something mean, and hungry, was swimming their way from underwater.

"Did you feel that?" Goku asked, feeling that there could be something that was swimming their way.

"Did I feel what? All I feel is the water getting a little warmer." Krillin asked.

Before Goku could respond, a shark that was larger than them all, suddenly surfaced out of the water, with its maw wide open enough to put them all inside as it also showed them its razor-sharp teeth. And it was making growling noises at them as they all screamed at the sudden appearance.

Then the next seconds were filled with sounds of yelling, and splashing as the terrified kids were swimming around the shark, trying not to get eaten as they all were swimming to the edges of the lake. Krillin tried to swim back the way he came.

"You didn't do a full lap yet! Keep going, Krillin!" Roshi called out.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Krillin asked in shock, and exasperation as he kept on avoiding the shark, diving underwater to go back the other way, then following both kids to the other end of the lake.

Where they were now on land on the other side of the lake while the shark was now swimming back, leaving them alone to catch their breath, deciding to wait patiently for them to get back in the water.

"That… was… a close one. Anybody alright?" Goku asked, almost wheezing as he was catching his breath.

"I am." Krillin wheezed out, also catching his breath as he laid down on the floor staring at the sky.

"I-I am." Chi-Chi responded, still sounding nervous.

Goku proceeded to turn to her in concern, seeing her sitting on the ground looking embarrassed as hell. And after wondering why, he looked down and saw his answer.

Chi-Chi lost control of her… water tanks, as she leaked on the grass.

Or in more blunt terms, she was getting done with urinating on the grass. Causing her to cover her face in embarrassment at her accident.

She was relieved that Krillin wasn't seeing this, and laughing at this since he was distracted with catching his breath, but Goku was witnessing it, which added to the embarrassment just as she was done peeing.

Goku proceeded to get up and walk to her, while having a soft smile on his face.

"Goku… what- please don't laugh. I'm embarrassed enough as it is, and I don't want to be humiliated further than this. I just couldn't control myself; I didn't know we were gonna be chased, and I couldn't-" She said, shedding some tears, dreading to see Goku laughing at her.

Only to be cut off, when Goku merely hugged her after pulling her up to where they both stood, with Chi-Chi again, towering over him by at least some inches. And yet he was feeling like he was helping her up from feeling down as she blushed again.

"It's okay Chi-Chi. It's not that embarrassing to my eyes that you did that. After all I'm sure Krillin would understand too if he were to notice." Goku quietly said, assuring her that he isn't going to laugh.

"T-That's… reassuring… but… you saw what I did." She quietly said.

"And trust me. If there was a time where the phrase, 'pee your pants in terror' is understandable, it's this. None of us saw the shark coming. So, I understand why that happened to you. And being honest, I'm wondering why that didn't happen to him too, but still. Just try not to have the accident make you become shyer, and craven. And try not to let terror keep you like this. Instead, use it to inspire you to be braver in the future. That you can grow up to where you won't be doing this again. Can you do it? For me?" Goku asked softly.

Chi-Chi looked at him in surprise at the response he made. Not only did he not laugh at her, like she expected, but he also told her to keep on training, and not to let her fears get the best of her as she trains. If there was another reason for herself to love Goku, it was this response that is the reason.

That is something that had her starting to smile at him in gratitude before kissing him on the cheek, much to his confusion. "I'll do my best. You'll-"

Before she could say more though, they suddenly noticed another beast that was nearby, and was on land with them from the vibrations. "Uh, guys?" Krillin said, getting their attention, and interrupting Chi-Chi, as they all looked at the beast.

Which was another dinosaur that isn't a T-rex, but it was still a big dinosaur that was intending on eating them up.

Which caused them all to scream and run, as they got chased by the dinosaur, before being forced to jump back in the water, to swim for their lives as the shark was now on their tails again, making them swim laps in the lake like Roshi made them do.

Which had Roshi feeling proud of them for their motivation to stay alive, making themselves stronger in the process. Even though he also cringed on the inside, since Fasha also viewed the whole thing.

And he was certain that her mama bear instincts could kick in, and beat his butt for almost feeding her son to the shark in the lake. Yet so far, she isn't showing signs.

"So… you don't them doing this, as their exorcise?" Roshi asked Fasha.

She shook her head to him. "Not really. In fact, I confess. I thought about something like this back in our swimming pool to make him swim fast as a style of training. Just replace the shark with the little sharp teethed fish with the red bellies."

Roshi was surprised, and shocked at that sentence. "You mean, Piranha? You could've used some Piranhas?!"

"Yes. Those things. But a few problems got in the way to where I didn't go through with it." Fasha said.

"Really? What stopped you?" Roshi asked.

"Those damn things that I had, were plenty in number to where they could stay on one side of the pool, and put at least a few bite marks on him from the moment he dives in, and swim as fast as he could to the other end. I'd rather not get him hurt by those things in trying to train him. Plus, I tested them a few times in our spacious swimming pool, and they died every time. Turns out, the chlorophyll to keep the water fresh for swimming in, tends to do that to fishes from the ocean, or the other lakes." Fasha said annoyed.

"Really?"

"Indeed Roshi. And it's a waste of time to salt the water for those fish to survive inside, plus, the other lakes that I could've put them in was murky, and it made them hard to see from the surface. Which would've made it hard to see where they could be swimming to and to see how far they are from the diving location. And trust me, my son is strong, but I knew better than to have him dive in to where there'd be at least fifty of them waiting, and ready to strip him to the bone once he merely dips a toe inside. So, I gave up on them, before they could be put to use." She then explained.

"Ah. What a relief." Roshi said, relieved that she indeed loves her son too much to outright put him into Piranha infested waters for swimming exorcises. "And what stopped you from using a shark, as well?"

"None of the other nearby lakes, had any. And our pool wasn't big enough for one of them of that size. At least to where Goku would be able to swim around it without trouble as it chases him. And it'd be a waste to find any lakes that has at least one of them. So, I gave up on them too. And the large, sharp teethed fishes in Mt. Paozu were a no go. He can kill them without trouble due to his strength." Fasha responded.

"Well, next time, you could tell him not to kill them when you use them for motivation."

"Why bother? He's not going to be afraid of them as he swims around them. Isn't fear also a great motivator for making them swim fast beyond their limits, and to survive, after all?" She asked casually.

"You make a fair point." Roshi said, ending their conversation as the trio of students were finishing up on their laps in the lake, before getting out of the lake on their side to catch their breaths.

"Well done boys, and girl. You've shown great swimming ability. Are you ready for your next lesson?" Roshi asked, getting them ready for the next motivation lesson.

Which, happened to be another mean lesson, of tying them to the tree, with a hive of hornets for them to run from.


And it was like that for the next day too. Which showed just how strict Roshi can be. Which lasted for at least the next three days before Goku, and Fasha's training regimen began.

Which, had them going to a place that Fasha feels, is a fitting place to train them both. Much to Goku's surprise.


"Okay. Here we are Goku." Fasha said, arriving in the desert with Goku, and her ship in tow as they both looked around after stepping out of her flying storage vehicle.

Goku was surprised to see the broken remains of Pilaf's castle in the distance as he, and Fasha, was in the desert near the castle, where they beat Pilaf, while Fasha exited the transport ship, holding her spherical ship. (Goku's was eventually found, and put in her castle when she explored the woods of Mt. Paozu.)

"Why are we back here? Mommy?" He asked, no longer using his term for her, feeling that in hindsight, it felt silly to say.

"It's our training grounds for our Oozaru forms. I just needed to find a good place for us to roam in our Oozaru forms, which should be a safe place to rampage around without causing destruction, other than to those weird trees." She said, referring to the mushroom trees. "Plus, we get to break that 'Emperor' Pilaf's castle down, more than it already was, just to spite him. And it's going to be fun." She said with a grin, feeling that she can make Pilaf angrier, by wrecking his castle more.

What she said, had Goku delighted, as he too didn't like Pilaf for taking their balls from them, and forcing them to waste a wish to stop him. So, breaking his castle down more was appealing to him too.

Even though he was also noting something that had him also confused.

"So, we're gonna wait until another full moon? That seems like a time waster." He said in a bored tone, noting that the Full Moon might not be in the sky for another day before it wanes back into a crescent. And it'd take thirty days for another full Moon to rise.

"That's where my ship comes in. You see, my ship carries a projector, pretty much like those movie projectors that those theaters show to these Earthlings. But this projector in my ship, projects an object from it, and into the sky." Fasha said.

Goku was surprised. "Really? So, you could probably make a projection of Earth from it?" He asked.

Fasha grinned in response. "Or the Moon." She spoke.

Goku felt excited at what she said. "So, we're able to project a Full Moon from the ship?! And it'd count as the real thing to make us transform?!"

"Indeed. But it needs to be nighttime, to where it's dark outside. Or the Full Moon is going to be hard to see. And that, is not going to help us with transforming into our Oozaru forms. So, let's instead train our tails, until night fall." She spoke.

Goku nodded, wondering what the training for the tails was going to involve.

*Later*

Goku grunted as he attempted to stay on his feet as he felt heavy square rocks on his tail, being placed there by Fasha. "W-what... is the purpose of those rocks? Nobody could have… a grip this strong!" He said, in pain of his tail getting crushed by the rocks. It felt like an elephant's foot was standing on it.

"You'd be surprised." Fasha said in response, placing another one on his tail. While she also had rocks on her tail too. Making her grunt. "Especially if you were to go up against… Frieza. Who would have such a grip. He is quite a strong being after all." She said with a scowl at the mention of Frieza.

Goku took her word for it. After all, he was told many times about Frieza, and his strength that he has, and his hold on his Empire in space, that he, and Fasha, are currently under the radar of.

"That's why you… should make sure to bear with this pain on your tail. That way, your tail will get used to being grabbed… in the future. And so that you can no longer feel your body… weakening from it. After this, we have other methods to use." Fasha said, smiling at the thought of her tail weakness being overcome.

What other methods that Goku wondered, amounted to lifting his whole body up by his tail alongside Fasha, while holding the large rocks on their backs, or their chests. Which was not an easy task since they didn't do any lifting exorcises on their tails.

There were also some pull ups using some pull up bars, since none of the trees in the desert had any branches for them to use. So, it was only the pull up bars that they had to use. Which was also an exercise in strength for their tails in terms of pulling. Which was the fun part at least for Goku. He did feel fond of monkeys, and hanging out with them during his off times of training in Mt. Paozu after all. Even though Fasha reminded him not to act too much like a monkey, feeling that Goku, and herself, is above them, and should be above acting like such, being Saiyans and all.

She was worried that it'd provoke comparisons to actual monkeys after all, and that's something that she's determined to avoid.

Then there was a simple endurance of how long can they hold themselves up by their tails. With Fasha aiming for the goal of at least five hours for herself and Goku. Before increasing the time upwards if they're able to reach it or keeping it the same if they don't. And for the first time, Goku was close.

But it isn't good enough for an extension of time, so she had Goku exorcising his tail to reach that goal. Before extending it by two minutes to train it after he relaxes, and recuperates.

*Later*

Then it was nighttime, on their second day of training, where they were now ready for their second time for their inevitable Oozaru training with the hologram of the Moon overhead.

Which involved their meditation training from Gohan. Just so they would use their calmed mind to fight the Oozaru within and control it.

Goku was naked on their first night of Oozaru training in the desert, to avoid tearing his Gi apart when he turns into it. Fasha was uncaring of that, but ensured that her Empire can manufacture some new Fighter Gi's for Goku to wear, that has the elasticity of Saiyan Armor, so he won't be forced to strip into the buff when they change into Oozarus, or be forced to streak around due to his broken Gi. They were nearly complete at the time, and was given to them on their second day of Oozaru training. But Fasha told him that since they were alone in the desert, then he can remain in the buff when they train the Oozaru, if he wants to.

Goku intended to put those new Gi's to use though, so he was currently wearing the Gi, to test and see if it'll hold when he transforms. While Fasha was still wearing her armor. The former ended up turning into such when it was nighttime, and sure enough, his Gi held together good enough. Much to Fasha's delight.

And they were both taking brief looks at the moon in order to absorb the Blutz Waves in only tiny doses, to see if they can use their meditation to hold back the rage of the Oozaru, and stop it from taking over their bodies, resulting in their transformation, and rampage. And so far, they were doing decently at it.

Sure, there was some hiccups at the first time, when Goku was unable to stop himself from rampaging, after transforming, forcing Fasha to turn off the moon projection to turn him back. Even then, he was wanting to go at it again, despite being exhausted from the transformation. But Fasha had him resting a bit first. So, he did. Afterwards, they resumed their Oozaru training until sunrise, before resuming their tail training when they got his new Gi's.

And now he was wearing one of them for this second training session as he, and Fasha continued to take only small peeks at the moon to hold their Oozaru's rage, so they won't transform, and rampage all over the desert together. Inadvertently breaking Fasha's ship in the process, forcing them to repair it to the best of Earth's abilities. (Which Goku believes that they can. While Fasha had her doubts, but she took his word for it.) Even though it was far enough away so they won't notice it, or reach it in their Oozaru forms.

They did slightly extend their looks towards the moon to take in a little more Blutz waves, hoping that they won't turn. Just to see if their minds will get used to the strain of the Oozaru's rage trying to get out. They just had to keep their mind intact, and fight the Oozaru in them, to find a balance between the calmness of their minds, and the Oozaru's berserker rage, after all.

That was how they can control the Oozaru form, after all.

"That's it Goku, only brief peeks. Get used to the Oozaru's rage, and make sure to contain it. Think of it as an enemy that you need to bend to your will instead of destroying." Fasha spoke.

Goku obeyed that lesson, ensuring that he won't turn into the Oozaru too soon, and risk rampaging around the desert until he wrecks the ship that is projecting the moon, or until Fasha deactivates it. That is, if she doesn't transform, herself. Then that would fall to him to turn her back if she goes berserk as the Oozaru, if he doesn't turn too.

So far, that isn't the case, as both of them were concentrating their efforts to withstand their Oozaru forms until they're able to control the Oozaru.

They just needed to remember Gohan's meditation training. To remain calm, and assert their control over their instincts. Which in turn, could eventually help them control the Oozaru.

Which is what Fasha plans to do, once she ends up fighting against the Red Ribbon Army. Oh how excited she is to crush them under her boots, as she kills them to the last man.

And admittedly, the same would be said for Goku.


Once their training days were up, they were back to Roshi's place, where they would continue to train with Roshi, Krillin, and Chi-Chi.

The latter of whom, was doing well in her own right, especially while around Goku. Which was much to Roshi, and Fasha's delight, as the latter felt that she was getting stronger for Goku.

It seemed that her love for Goku was making her grow a bit in strength, and in her confidence. Regardless of her lingering shyness. Which Fasha was hoping would fade as she continues to interact with Goku.

For now, they were continuing on with the training regimen that still consisted of delivering the milk, then plowing the fields, and outswimming the lake shark among other stuff, until they were all now resting on hammocks.

Which was tied to a bunch of palm trees, that had their leaves putting shadows over them as they protected them from the sun.

Which was much to the students' relief, as they didn't want any of the sun in their eyes.

"Why are we here, Roshi? This doesn't seem like training." Goku said.

"Of course it isn't. You cannot put yourself through training at least 24 hours a day. There must be moments for you to rest, and pace yourself, or you threaten to break your bones through lack of rest." Roshi said. "It won't do your body good to train to the point of abuse, and exorcise all the way through your day."

"I'm afraid I must disagree on that part." Fasha suddenly said, getting off her hammock. "Unlike you earthlings, we Saiyans get stronger from fighting, and training until our bones crack."

"Maybe for you, but for the rest of us 'Earthlings', that doesn't apply to us. Plus, I'm sure that it isn't as beneficial for you to train hard for long periods, as you think, regardless of your species." Roshi argued back.

"Oh really? Coming from an Earthling, that is rich to hear." She said mockingly.

Which set off their little argument that lasted for under a minute, with it also involving Frieza's name being dropped, before Fasha left in a huff to train more on another section of the island. While also quitting his training. Goku tried to follow, but Roshi stopped him.

"Let her go. If she is going to be stubborn to keep this up, then it'll be on her if she doesn't grow stronger. Plus, this is how she'll learn her folly the hard way. And hopefully, she'll be wiser from it. Especially if the day comes, when you have the strength to surpass her." He spoke.

Goku was wanting to keep on going to Fasha, as he was getting hugged by Chi-Chi, until he conceded with Roshi. He felt that Roshi may have a point, in his wisdom. Fasha isn't going to be as willing to listen as he is. And not even he could convince her otherwise, regardless of being her now figurative son.

It was up to fate to convince her to listen to Roshi's lesson, and let herself rest up, and pace herself. Especially, once the day comes when they fight someone stronger than Fasha herself, let alone, against Frieza himself. Or when he ends up fighting her, when he has no choice but to do so.


After that moment, Fasha continued to train in her own way, even though she did help out in delivering the milk with them. Even though she did apologize to her son for her outburst towards Roshi. But she still refused to change her views of training for Roshi. Feeling too stubborn for that.

The former of which, extended to Roshi himself through his mouth, which he forgave her for at least on the former. But she was forced to do some more plowing of the fields as punishment due to the latter. Though Fasha could care less. At least she is getting tougher from the plowing.

As for their training, it was still the same, only there was one change to it. They each had to wear shells that was heavy, due to weighing fifty pounds, and threatened to weigh them down at first. Something that Fasha took a liking to as she was reminded of the gravity of her planet. So Roshi ended up giving her what he knows is the heavier shell that none of the kids could lift up. Which weighed at least enough for the kids to feel like they were trying to carry a Yokozuna on their shoulders.

In her eyes though, it felt like she had a full fifty pound bag of flour on her back. Which wasn't too heavy, but definitely heavy enough for her tastes as she did thank Roshi for the shell.

While on the other hand, the kids, were feeling like they had heavy rocks on their backs that initially had them feeling like they were going to get crushed by, or fall down from exhaustion, especially as they continue their milk delivery through the fields, and even through the desert. And that is not to mention their other times of getting chased around by a Dinosaur during those deliveries.

Later on though, their increase in stamina from their milk deliveries, their strength in construction work, and their speed in swimming from the shark, and running from the Dinosaurs, was starting to show themselves in full force. As they were not only not slowing down when they wear those heavy shells, they also became stronger than last time.

Which was shown, when they started to outswim the shark in the same lake together, as they were starting to swim fast for one end of the lake, to another, while the shark initially chased them, only for them to start to easily swim circles around it, out speed it, and even swim in the opposite direction of where the shark was going, much to its confusion. All while they were starting to have fun with the swimming that they were doing, due to their swimming speed. Which caused them to start braving swimming with the shark.

Especially where Chi-Chi was concerned. As she was initially too scared to swim in the lake again, only doing it to try to impress Goku, now though, she too got braver of the shark as she too swam circles around it. And even giggled at how fun it was to play the chase game with the shark, alongside Krillin, and Goku.

Even Fasha got in on the action, beginning with their second time swimming in the lake, when she joined in, also skinny dipping with them too. She initially was their Shepard that helped lead them to the safe place on the other end, while she easily also swam circles around it, and distracted it to keep it off of them if it got too close, until even she started to treat this swim as a chase game. Even though it isn't a game where their lives are concerned, if they get reckless.

Most of all, they also started to show that they have grown in strength, when they pushed around heavy rocks to show how stronger they have become to Roshi. Much to his amazement. But even though he was impressed as well, he wasn't willing to teach the kids the special moves of his skill, due to confessing his little lesson.

He has little to teach them about martial arts as the point of his training was merely about the training, and exercise schedule. They merely had to do these tedious exercises again, and again to strengthen themselves, and push themselves beyond their limits.

Which, they succeeded in with flying colors. Especially Goku. Though Chi-Chi, and Krillin wasn't far behind. (And neither was Fasha, but she was already strong to begin with, which made this exorcise feel more tedious for her. But at least she kept strong like this.)

The point of this training wasn't to learn how to fight, but how to get stronger through these exorcises. They all can fight good enough, as it was natural for them to fight on. They just needed the strength to fight well. Which, they were able to gain some of it.

As frustrated as Fasha was at what she was told, she started to understand that Roshi has a point there. A training schedule was important, even though she already has one. She just made it take up a lot of her free time, with no rest in between. And Roshi predicts, that it's going to be her downfall, someday.

Afterwards, they were now wearing heavier shells to get stronger with, especially Fasha. Which was much to their dismay, but at least they are strengthening up well.

Chi-Chi still blushes around Goku though, when they're together, as well as stutters around him. Showing that it was a slow process throughout their training throughout the months that passed. But Fasha was confident that she'll get over it eventually.

Especially when she told her that she needs to show off how mighty she is, and how fierce she can be, not just in fighting, but in her passion, like a fire in her belly, because it is a trait that attracts her people. And she's confident that Goku will be no different, regardless of his difference from their race. (Which Chi-Chi started to obey.)

Granted, he is becoming less goofy, and more serious to where he doesn't really mess around in combat very much, whenever they spar back in the desert where Pilaf's castle was during their wait for the night to come. And he even occasionally gets ruthless when they shot their Ki attacks at some training dummies. Much to her delight. But he's still ultimately a nice soul. And acts only like a Saiyan, whenever he fights a literal foe.

Which is fine with her. Even though she hopes he'll be more ruthless to his foes, later on.

As for Krillin, he ended up gaining friendship with Goku throughout the months. They used to be rivals, but later on, they started to bond as friends, and fellow classmates to the Turtle School alongside Fasha. And they started to bond as friends. Even if he has occasions of trying to beat Fasha in his confidence. Only to be intimidated into backing down by her.

Not that she hates him for that, as due to his friendship with Goku, she was looking forward to sparring with him, alongside Goku, after the Tournament.

Now, after a couple months has passed, probably eight months, of them training with Roshi, then with Goku, and Fasha training with each other, the day came when the Tournament was starting to come in one day. When they were now near Roshi's car, that he was going to drive to the Tournament, when they were removing their shells.

"Now, see how high you can all jump." Roshi said, making them jump to see how high their jump can go.

Which they all obeyed, as Goku, Krillin, and Chi-Chi crouched down, before making a mighty leap upwards. Much to their amazement when they noticed.

"Hey, notice something different?" Krillin, Goku, and Chi-Chi asked each other. Before they descended to the ground, where they were now giggling when they saw how high they jumped. Much to Roshi's delight.

Fasha was also proud of them, even though she didn't jump herself too. Mainly because she knew how high she'd jump, to it wouldn't be much of a surprise, or an amazing thing in her case.

They then proceeded to dash around together, as they ran fast around the island together as they giggled like school children. "Look how fast we can run!" Goku said happily.

"I know! We're like hot rods!" Chi-Chi spoke excitedly.

Which was followed by Krillin making vrooming noises, much to their amusement as they ran around, showing their speed.

After they were done, Roshi had called them back, had them dressing up in travel Tuxedos, and was now driving away for their plane, which would take them to Papaya Island.

Which was where the Tournament would be taking place. And they were all excited to try it out as they flew to that place. While Fasha was excited to see how Goku would perform.

She hoped that he would perform well in the Tournament.


And done.

Sorry this took long, but I can assure you readers, that I did not drop this fic. I just had others to update, and write, and I hope that this chapter is worth the wait.

As for the Tournament, is there any major differences that is going to take place there in this Fic? Indeed there is, once we get there.

Speaking of Tournament, I'm planning to have the Tournament to be ran, and overlooked by Fasha, considering her class in this fic, as Empress. So she is not really a contestant in this, but rather the main lady that overlooks the whole Tournament. So brace yourselves for that.

And yes, Chi-Chi is participating too. If only to not only get the Zennies, but also to impress Goku. Even though she won't really mind if she loses.

Finally, one more thing.

I hope that you enjoyed the chapter,
