Here it is Ch. 5 where Bardock finally reviles everything. I'm sorry it took so long, I hope you like it. I don't own anything except that green haired woman from a few chapters ago, but it's likely that you will never see her again. Though you will see other characters that I created as well. Please read and review. This story is brought to you by a twenty-one year old Christian.

Ch. 5 A Truth Revealed.

They had finally arrived at the Briefs residence after sundown. They were all tired and hungry after what they had endured that day. Except Jiraiya he was just tired. Yamcha let them all in since he was living there at the moment.

"Hey guys were here!" Goku called, only to be tackled by Chi-Chi. He gave a yelp of surprise.

"Goku, I was so worried about you!" She saw Bardock, and scowled at him. "What's he doing here?!"

"Chi-Chi, we just got here and my dad intends to-" He was cut off by a very angry Chi-Chi.

"I don't care! He just killed two people and-" She began to rant only to be cut off by Goku.

"CHI-CHI, YOU WILL LISTEN TO ME!" Goku shouted. This was the first time that he ever yelled at her. This shocked everyone, because he was the kind of guy who wouldn't do something like that. He's…we all know he a fun loving guy! Do I have to explain that? He took a few calming breaths and continued. "He told us that he'll explain everything after we get something to eat." Goku's stomach then growls along with his father's and everyone else that was there except the obvious one. "Besides, he was only enraged because they were trying to kill us."

Chi-Chi realized that he was right. He was trying to protect them from people that were trying to kill them. "Just answer me one question. Did you kill all of them?"

Bardock cocked an eyebrow, thinking why she would ask that question. He peeked into her mind and saw the boy. "No, I only killed the two. And the only survivor is that boy who was obsessed with his 'art'."

Chi-Chi knew exactly who he was talking about. "Alright. At least the boy isn't dead." She put on a pleasant face. "And Piccolo isn't here either. That's a relief. The boys are upstairs asleep, and food's on the table. Let's eat."

It wasn't a quiet meal, the shinobi and the Z-Fighters were explaining what happened after Chi-Chi had left with the children. They all got a kick out of the retelling of the 'Pole Incident'. Bardock even told them what he did to young Didara. He may have gotten an ear full from Chi-Chi, but Jiraiya told them the advantage that this would give him for his spy network.

Soon it came time for the meal to finish, and Bardock to tell them everything. He started by explaining their origins and abilities. He then told the tale of how he died, the bet, and what he saw in the genjutsu. That made them pail and realize why he didn't want to tell them before hand. Then again Saiyans were actually considerate when it came to some aspects of 'meal time'. He did not want them to loose their appetites.

"I'm sorry that I wasn't a better father, and I hope that one day you can forgive me." He concluded, his head lowered in sadness.

Goku decided to say what was on his mind. "Well it sure explains a lot about…well…everything."

"I'm sorry." Everyone looked to the one who spoke. It was Chi-Chi. "I shouldn't of jumped the gun like that. You've changed from your old ways, and now you have a second chance." She gave him a small smile. "And you what they say, 'bad habits die hard'."

"And I forgive you for what you've done dad. I understand that what you did was wrong but you turned your life around, and that's what important. I'm proud to say that you're my father." Goku said. Bardock almost cried, but his eyes did mist over.

"Oh I just remembered." Bardock just realized something as he pulled something out of his armor. "How much do I owe you Krillin?" Everyone saw the envelope that he pulled out was full of lots of money! He read his mind for the answer and gave him the correct amount, because Krillin was just shocked to see that he won that much.

"Wow, makes me wish I entered." Tsunade said in shock.

"Where did you get that?" Chi-Chi asked.

"He got it at the competition that was today." Yamcha said. "Sorry about what I said after the fight."

"Completely understandable." Bardock said, "I was a little unstable."

"A little?" Tien asked.

"Okay, I was completely out of control!" They all shared a laugh. It became a lighter atmosphere as time went on. Eventually everyone turned in to get some sleep. Who could blame them? They had a long day.

…

In the middle of the night, Gohan started to cry wanting to be held. Goku was just in the door when he hears Gohan stopped crying. The young Saiyan peeks in to see his father holding his son saying in a comforting tone, "Shhh. It's okay. Your okay. Grampa's here." Goku couldn't help but smile when he saw that. The moment was shattered when Naruto started to cry. So Goku decided to make his presents known and picks up the little blond. The jinchuriki stopped crying as he was being held as well. "Thanks Kakarot, I don't think I can hold two just yet."

Goku chuckled and looked at his father. "Hey, dad?"

"Hmm?"

"What do think would've happened to Naruto if our worlds were never destined to unite with theirs?" He asked putting the child down after he calmed down and went back to sleep.

"I don't know son. Why do you ask?" He asked doing the same thing as his grandson.

"Well…you remember that earthquake that happened?"

"I wasn't there but I heard about it."

"Well, what do think Naruto's life could've been like?" He asked, thinking that the blond child in the cradle would've had a life with his mother and father.

"Not sure." There was an awkward silence between the two after Bardock put Gohan down.

"I don't think it would've ended well Goku." Said a voice that put Bardock on his guard.

"Kyuubi?" Goku breathed. They then were transported to what looked like a giant sewer, with ankle deep water, and a huge cage in front of them with the kanji for seal on the door.

"Umm…Kakarot…" Bardock said, he was very intimidated by the power of the creature before him. It was near his own power. "What is that thing?"

"Hey Kyuubi," Goku said nervously, "Why are we here?"

"Simple. I brought you here to tell you that the boy wouldn't have had a normal life."

"How is that?" Goku asked.

"There was a man that I knew a long time ago that would force me to do his bidding. His name was Uchiha Madara."

"Hey, I know that name." Barcock said. "I saw that guy get dragged into hell. I just wish that I saw Kushina beat the daylights out of him." He said as he tried to keep himself from laughing, and failing miserably.

"Wait. You met my previous jinchuriki?"

"If her name was Uzumaki Kushina, then yes." The hardened warrior said as he looked the demon straight in the eyes.

"Umm, could you get back to what we were talking about?" Goku asked.

"Oh, of course. Right away, it's just that Jewlbunny has a bad habit that causes her to not stay on the subject."

"HEY!" I shouted, "Why don't you get back to it! You do realize that this is the first time that someone has broken the fourth wall in this story!" Bardock and Goku gasp.

"I can't believe this" Goku said, in surprise. "I did it a few times in canon. Broke the manga once." He chuckled.

"This is so weird." Bardock pointed out.

"Okay, Let's just back to the story, and pretend that Kyuubi didn't say anything about me." I told them.

"Alright fine. Look, that guy would've broken the seal to set me free, only to gain control of me. He can do that. That would've caused her to die either way. Then there's Naruto's father. He still would've done the same thing to seal me in his own son. Then almost the entire village would've seen the boy as me and not a hero like his father wanted. And trust me when I say that the life of a jinchuriki is not an easy one."

"I don't even want to think what would've happened to him if I hadn't been there that night." Goku said in shock of it's statement. He would be all alone, without anyone to be there for him.

"You saved him from a terrible and weak existence. I don't like my wardens to be weak, and the village would've stunted his growth."

"Yeah, and we were attacked today. We don't even have very much left from the explosion." Goku said in a depressed tone. His father put a hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry, I'm sure we can find you a place to live."

"That's it!"

"What's it?"

"Oh, you just remembered didn't you?"

"Remembered what?"

Flashback:

"I fear the village won't see him as a hero like he wanted." Said a boy warring a mask that covered the bottom of his face, with his headband covering his left eye, and silver gravity defying hair.

"Then what should I do?" Goku asked

"Take him."

"What?" He then looked at the baby.

"I can tell your not from this area. So you can deliver him from this place. Away from what the hatred of this village. But promise me this. He must return when he is old enough to this village to become a Ninja of the Leaf, or if your attacked by enemy ninja. Whichever comes first."

Flashback ends:

"So the village could be the very protection we need until I get strong enough. Plus he can train there too." Goku said.

"Sounds like a plan." His father replied. "And Baba thought there was no hope for you in the mental department." He said messing with his son's hair. Goku gave him a strange look. "Okay she didn't say that, but it's close enough."

"Well I do have one question before we go Kyuubi." Goku stated.

"And that is?"

"Are you male or female? I mean you can never tell with a voice like that."

"Kakarot!" 'Now I'm starting to think he's got no hope.'

"I'm female."

"I thought so."

"WHAT?!" 'Okay, I was wrong for a second.'

"Wow, your good Goku. By the way, Kyuubi isn't even my real name."

"Then what is it?"

"That's for another time. You two need to get some sleep. I don't care what you are. Now off you two." She said as she sent them back out of the baby's mindscape.

"Wow, that was an interesting development." Goku said mostly to himself.

"Yeah." His father replied. His mind was blown from what happened. "I think it would be best to not tell the others about the chat we had with…her."

"Yeah dad, your right." Goku was about to walk back to his room but his father stopped him by putting his hand on his shoulder.

"Look, no matter what happens, I'll be there to for you help from now on." He held his son in his arms for the first time in his whole life, his son returning the embrace. "I love you son." It embarrassed him a little bit to say it, but he said it. After seeing what he saw in the genjutsu, he was now afraid of loosing his family. He even feared for Raditz' life. He knew he would be fine for awhile, but he was still scared, though he'd never admit it.

"I know dad," He said, "I know." The two left the room, to their rooms, and they drifted off to sleep.

I hope this chapter was worth the wait. Next chapter, Bardock gets a new wardrobe, and they move to The Leaf Village. And maybe a little on our little Iwa-mole. Te he. Anywho, thank you for being so patent with me on this. Please review, and God bless you.
