Note: This begins the third saga of DragonBall AF.

Chapter 63

Last time on DragonBall AF, Appolysis had finally met his downfall at the hands of Super Saiyan 5 Son Goku. And now with Son Goku taking over as guardian of the Other World, life on Earth is getting back to normal. Six months have passed since the battle. Vegeta Jr was revived with the DragonBalls in no time and Uubu has gone back to living in seclusion for the time being. The boys, except for Goshin, have reentered school, trying to get their lives back to the way they were…

"Geez, another 6 hours of my life that I'll never get back," complained Vegeta. "I'm so glad finals are next week. And I'm sure you'll ace them of course."

"Hahaha!" laughed Goku. "I just have better study habits than you that's all! I'll help ya out if you need it Vegeta."

"Yea sure," he mumbled. The two boys walked behind some brush, and made sure no one was looking. Once they knew they were safe, they jumped into the air and started to fly towards home. "You know," said Vegeta, "it still pisses me off how you're parents don't make Goshin go to school. What does he do all day anyways, sit around and watch TV?"

"I told you already Vegeta," said Goku, "he doesn't need an education. He's smart enough in his own right because of what he learned growing up. Plus, I don't even know what he does in his off-time."

"Feh, I can think of a few colorful things," quipped Vegeta. Goku gave him a weird look. "But… I'll keep it to myself," added Vegeta. "Well let's go to my house. We can train a little bit in the gravity room."

"What's with you and training so much ever since we wished you back?" asked Goku. "I mean, you seemed devoted before, but now it's even more. Are you just trying to reach Super Saiyan 3 or something?"

"No, it's definitely not that," said Vegeta with conviction. "I've just realized that I shouldn't let myself become rusty in times of peace."

"Usually you slack of in times of peace."

"That was before I got some helpful advice," replied Vegeta. The boys remained silent for a few moments, but then they finally saw Capsule Corp in the horizon.

"You think your grandma made something to eat again? I'm starving," complained Goku.

"Does it matter?" asked Vegeta sarcastically. "You raid my fridge regardless when ever you come over."

"Heh, oh yea that's right," smiled Goku. The two boys landed and walked inside the front entrance.

"Good afternoon, Vegeta," said the guard. "Your grandmother wanted me to tell you she made some lunch in the kitchen. She and your mother stepped out to do some shopping and they'll be back shortly."

"Thanks Tom," said Vegeta. "Well let's eat so you don't wither away Goku and then we'll train." And with that, the boys walked in to the elevator leading to the kitchen.

Back at Mt. Pazou, Goshin was outside looking for wood. His parents and Pan were inside the house tending to daily business as usual. "UHF!" grunted Goshin as he piled the wood up. "That seems like it should last us pretty well for tonight." He looked up into the sky for a moment. "Hm, about 3 o'clock. Goku will be heading home soon most likely. I'll get him to bring the rest of this wood in when he gets home. Goshin bent down and picked up some of the wood and placed it on his back as he started walking in the direction of home.

The wind was blowing slightly, making the leaves in the trees rustle softly, and Goshin's hair waver through the cool breeze. Everything seemed peaceful all around him, until he stopped dead in his tracks and a look of confusion came over his face. "What the…" he started. I swear I could've just sensed something for a second. It was considerably strong though, but it's just disappeared. Goshin decided to keep walking on along the trail back home. Then, the wind started picking up as dark storm clouds began to roll in. Soon a low boom of thunder was heard in the distance.

"I have to hurry up now," he said, as he started picking up more speed. Soon drizzles of rain started falling as the storm moved closer. Lightning started flashing in unison with the rolling thunder. "Damn it, I had no idea it was going to rain today!" shouted Goshin. "Now all this wood is going to get soak-" BWOK

Goshin was kicked by somebody in the back, causing him to fall and drop all of the logs onto the ground. What the hell? I didn't sense anything, he thought. Just as he was about to get up, he felt a large arm grab across his body, and a hand with a handkerchief in it sweep over his mouth and nose.

"Sleep now, sleep," said a raspy voice. Goshin struggled to break free at first, but he soon found himself losing consciousness. "With you down, nobody will stand in my way…"

"Muff…muff…" Goshin tried to say something but could only get out muffled noises before he finally passed out.

"You're grandma sure outdid herself Vegeta!" laughed Goku. "Maybe I'll come here to train more often!"

"Not if eating the first thing on your mind you fattie," sneered Vegeta. "Anyways, let's get to the gravity room." The two young Saiyans walked downstairs and into the room where Vegeta's ancestors spent so much time in year's ago.

"So what are you up for today Vegeta, 450X?" asked Goku.

"Let's push it up to 475," replied Vegeta. "It's one step below 500X. I'm pretty sure I'm almost to the point where I can take it. Just a few more days and I'll have it, I know it!"

"Whatever you say then," agreed Goku. He walked over to the panel in the middle of the room and turned the gravity machine on. "Turning it to 475X Earth's gravity." He turned the dial and instantly they both felt the pressure on them. It became harder to breathe as well. The boys had only started using the gravity room in recent months, but were already making steady progression. It seemed like they would achieve 500X in much less time than either the elder Vegeta or Trunks.

"HAH!" shouted Vegeta as he punched through the air. "Huff, this is pretty intense. HYAH!" Vegeta quickly turned Super Saiyan, giving him a bit more of mobility. Goku soon followed in suit. "Goku, let's see who can do 500 push-ups the fastest. You up too it?"

"Aw man, I hope I don't throw up from this," groaned Goku. They both got onto the floor in ready position and started. The boys struggled on the first few, but were soon getting used to the gravity and it became a little bit easier.

Two hours later, Goku and Vegeta emerged from the training room, dripping with sweat. "I haven't worked that hard in a while!" exclaimed Vegeta. "But it was good, I think by the end of the week I'll be able to master 500X."

"Speak for yourself!" aid Goku in an exasperated tone. "I need to go to sleep. I'll see ya later Vegeta." Just as Goku was about to walk down the hallway to the lobby, a shrill scream broke through.

"AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE!"

"That sounded like grandma!" yelled Vegeta. Goku and Vegeta quickly raced towards where they heard the scream, it was back in the kitchen. "Grandma! Grandma! Are you all-!" Vegeta stopped dead in his tracks, Goku right behind him. Before them they saw a tall man, his hand grasped across Bra's throat, and Celery on the floor knocked out in a small pool of blood. The man was very tall, and had jet black hair that stuck up in several places, somewhat similar to Goku's but not totally. He wore an old Saiyan vest, with shoulder pads jutting out, much like the kind the elder Vegeta wore when he first arrived on Earth. He had a black, skin-tight suit on underneath, and a malevolent grin crossed his face.

"AH! It's you!" the man said in a raspy voice. It was the same man who attacked Goshin. "You're tall hair I could not ever forget. It's almost exactly the same as the one back home…"

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!" demanded Vegeta. "Put my grandmother down! What have you done to her and my mother!"

The man looked at Bra and laughed. "HAHAHAHA! Very well!" And with a flick of his wrist he threw Bra at Vegeta, just barely catching her.

"Grandma, are you all right!" he exclaimed.

"V-Vegeta," she choked out. "B-b-be…" but she passed out before she could finish her sentence. Vegeta turned and put her into Goku's arms, and looked right back at her attacker.

"What the hell is your deal!" screamed Vegeta, shaking in place. "How did you even get past security? Tell me now!"

"HA! Well for one thing your security wasn't very… secure," he said. "As for my deal, it's you. All of you young Saiyans. You're my target."

"Then why did you attack Bra and Celery?" yelled Goku.

"Spur of the moment I suppose?" he said. "I wasn't really expecting them to be in here. Perhaps I should've got here an hour before."

"Why are we your target! We don't even know you!" screamed Vegeta once again.

"I don't know you too well either," replied the man. "But I do know that you both must be killed. You must be killed so that in the future your descendants won't be around to stop me!"

"WHAT!" exclaimed Vegeta.

"That's right," he continued, "I'm not from this era. I've come from the year 1788. I'm actually the descendent of Goshin. But your descendents are getting in the way of my plan to destroy the Universe! So I've come to the root of the problem."

"That's almost 900 years into the future!" said Vegeta in a surprised tone.

"Have you put two and two together yet?" he asked. "I'm sure you've heard stories of Broly from your parents and grandparents. He died about 100 years ago, correct? So 900 plus 100 would equal 1,000 years…"

Goku's eyebrows suddenly perked up. "No. NO! You're lying! That can't be true!"

"But it is!" boomed the stranger. "I am the next Legendary Super Saiyan!"

Impossible! A time traveler from nearly 1,000 years in the future has come to the present day to attack Goku and Vegeta. But what about Goshin? What has become of him? And are this stranger's claims true? Is he really the Legendary Super Saiyan of the future! You won't want to miss the next exciting chapter of DragonBall AF!
