What's gotten into you?
After tucking Gohan to bed; Chichi went to her and Goku's bedroom. She decided not to be bothered by the dinner incident anymore because, she has set her mind to help bring Goku back to the man the world has known him to be. Chichi rummaged through her wardrobe and took a lilac cotton short sleeve with a v - neck nightie that reaches to her thighs. It is not revealing but it complement's Chichi's well toned figure. She entered the bathroom and took a quick shower and went to bed with tears in her eyes yet with determination. "Gohuhku, I will do everything to bring you back to who you really are. Kami help us." She sadly whispered then fell asleep.
Meanwhile at the Kame House; Yamcha, Krillin and Master Roshi are so engrossed with their poker game when suddenly Kakarotto materialized in front of them with a mean look in his eyes. The three jumped from their sits and the cards they are holding fell from their hands. Krillin is the first one to notice that there is something off with his friend; yet still greeted him cheerily, yet deep inside Krillin feels nervous. "Hey buddy what a pleasant surprise! Do you like to join our game of poker?" Kakarotto scoffed at Krillin. Then went straight to the kitchen and then; there are clanging and smashing going on. The Z warriors Yamcha and Krillin is taken aback with his bizarre behavior, and with that they hastily followed him with Roshi. They gaped with what they saw. The kitchen is in total mess and Goku is eating like as if there's no tomorrow. Yamcha joked to him"Uh Goku what's your deal? Did you and Chichi had a fight and now you're taking your frustration out on the food?" Kakarotto furrowed his eyebrows and sneered. "Ha! I couldn't stand the drama of that woman. I'am making a man out of the brat and she hold it against me! I can't believe I spawned a wimp!" Then continued devouring the slab of pork ribs.
Master Roshi, Krillin and Yamcha looked at each other in utter confusion. They never heard Goku speak that way about his family until now. Master Roshi motioned to the two Z warriors to leave. The two left the old master to talk to his supposed pupil."What's going on with you? Why are you being hostile to your family all of a sudden Goku!" Kakarotto couldn't stand being called Goku. With that, he formed a tiny ki like the size of a tennis ball on the palm of his hand and fired it on the kitchen wall. "He yelled at the old master "Stop calling me Goku! That is a puny name. I am Kakarotto! From now on that's how you're going to address me! Yamcha and Krillin rushed back to the kitchen and are relieved to see their sensei unharmed. Kakarotto shot the Z warriors a death glare that if looks could kill they're dead. He snarled at them and said. "Now show me what you got! "With that Master Roshi raised his voice at Kakarotto and demanded him to leave. But he is stubborn as a mule. Krillin stood up to him and said "look Goku or Kakarotto whatever you want to be called, we don't understand your deal! We are your friends not enemies but if you want us to fight then so be it!" Kakarotto sneered at Krillin and said "Your funeral."
The Z fighters Yamcha and Krillin went out of the house and Kakarotto followed them. Yamcha tried to reason with Kakarotto for the last time, hoping not to get into a fight with him." Look we don't know what has gotten into you could you please snap out of it? This isn't funny Goku!" Kakarotto angrily remarked" I said I am not Goku! And attacked Yamcha with a Ki blast. Luckily Yamcha flipped over and was able to avoid it. He countered attacked with his signature move with all the strength he could muster, Wolf faaang Fist! Kakarotto got hit quite badly and tumbled on the sand. But recovers and not unphased. But before he can counter, Krillin took advantage of it by using his double ki gun attack. Kakarotto got hit again but this time he managed to counter attack with a super blast at Krillin. Krillin barely avoided the attack but stood his ground by sending a barrage of tiny destructo disc at him, and then Krillin shot up to the air to lead Kakarotto to a wider space to fight. If not Kame House is going to be destroyed. When the three of them reached an islet, they carried on with their battle, until Yamcha got hit badly on his left shoulder and right leg. Krillin though got beaten badly wasn't critically injured compared to Yamcha. Kakarotto let out an arrogant laugh and said, "your so weak! I should've destroyed you but that goody too shoes Goku holds me back in my mind." He spat on the sand then flew away. After their terrible encounter with Kakarotto, Krillin brought Yamcha back to Kame house and went to Korins tower to get senzu beans. When he got the bag of senzu beans, he flew to meet with Piccolo at the vicinity of the Son house.
Krillin walked towards Piccolo upon seeing him sitting by the brook. He said worriedly"Piccolo we have a problem, Goku isn't himself. He's gone mad." He fought with us for no apparent reason at all. Look how badly beaten I am. It seems like his fight with Frieza was too much for him. He attacked me and Yamcha. What bothers me the most is that he doesn't want to be called Goku! He said he is Kakarotto! Piccolo I am afraid for Chichi and Gohan. Let's get my bestfriend back!"
Piccolo turned to look at Krillin straight on his face and seriously responded. "I know what you mean Krillin; I could sense it from here. But you see the only person who could bring back Goku is someone who is one with him. Meaning a person who has a strong bond with him and that is none other than his wife. "We need to let Son Goku's wife know the task at hand. "We'll help Chichi to cure Goku before the Androids arrive." Krillin nodded in agreement and replied "Yes you are absolutely right. Well I gotta go now I need to give Yamcha a senzu bean."
Krillin got back to Master Roshi's and gave Yamcha a senzu bean. While Piccolo meditated…
It is very interesting to see that, Chichi is the best person to bring back Goku into his normal state of mind. I will be glad to hear from you my fellow DBZ fans
