Not the last after all!

With the aftermath of Bulma's latest party finally cleared up and the Z-fighter sent on their way, Bulma once again returned her thoughts to her husband and son, although she would never let the others know she felt at a complete loss without them around along with a great deal of worry to go with it.

"I know I've just seen they are ok, but I hope nothing happens to them on their trip back, I don't know what I would do without them"

Meanwhile on a frozen planet deep in space two princes' battle the elements as their training continues, through the wind and the snow, the blizzards and unbelievable cold, the two warriors pushed through it all to reach new levels of strength. Even though Trunks was only just over 1 years old it didn't stop his training as saiyan children develop much faster than humans, this meant he was already able to produce simple Ki attacks and low power Kamehameha waves, a fact that his father would become aware of quite soon.

"Push son, push through the pain, good, now attack me!"

"Aahhh"

Trunks gathered his remaining energy and ran at his father charging the biggest Ki blast he could, his speed increased so that he was just a blur cutting through the snow covered surroundings, he jumped up and released his Ki at his fathers head and scored a direct hit to his face, Vegeta, although stumbling a little from the shock of his sons surprisingly powerful attack, stood firm and didn't even attempt to block. Trunks released all of his energy and fell from the air unconscious; Vegeta stuck out his arms and caught the falling boy.

"Hmmm impressive, you have earned your rest boy, we shall continue after you rest and eat"

Vegeta powered down and flew back to the ship, it was then he felt how drained he was, unable to fly at any sort of speed he limped back almost dropping from the air a few times.

"Damb it, how can I have used that much energy, kakarot would never leave himself in this position, barely able to defend himself, having the boy with me makes it even more inexcusable, the woman would kill me if anything happened."

Vegeta touched down at the ship and took Trunks to his room to rest and heal, usually Vegeta would do the same but the situation being as it was, on an alien planet with unknown dangers, he decided to have a senzu bean.

"Ahhh, I hate using these things, still the situation calls for a quick fix up, I don't want to be caught off guard at low power"

After doing a brief scan of the area for any hostile Ki and checking Trunks, he put himself into a deep meditative state, if he could not train his body yet he was sure going to train his mind, while keeping part of his mind focused on the Ki of his sleeping son Vegeta began his rigorous mental exercise.

Meanwhile the storm raged outside, blowing away the loose snow covering the surface and turning the deeper drifts into thick sheet ice, this revealed a small hump on the once smooth surface, caused by a small craft lost in the confusion surrounding the tyrant Frieza and long forgotten after the destruction of a civilization, the being inside frozen in time not aging a day since the day of its launch waiting to be rediscovered.

Hours passed and the storm died down, inside the CC ship Vegeta was still meditating however something caught his attention and brought him around, he could feel his sons Ki spiking signaling his healing was almost complete.

"Quite remarkable, the boys regeneration rivals that of even the most powerful warriors, one day he will be a fine warrior even by mine and Kakarots standards, maybe even stronger."

Silently he dropped to his feet and made his way to the kitchen, it was remarkable but Bulma had at least partially succeeded in doing what most people would consider impossible, taming and at least partially domesticating the full blooded saiyan prince, this coupled with a deep and well hidden parenting instinct led Vegeta to the conclusion that Trunks would be starving when he awoke and no training could commence until the hunger had been satisfied, by this point the same could almost be said of the prince too for when he opened the fridge his stomach let out a Goku worthy growl.

"Damb Kakarot, I seem to be picking up some of your bad habits, well looks like we eat before we can continue."

He dug around in the fridge and pulled out several kilograms of luncheon meat, several large blocks of cheese and some large chocolate cakes that the woman had gotten him addicted to, he then activated the service bot and programmed it to make sandwiches while he sliced the cakes into slices and found some of that squirty cream that went so well with it, all the food was deposited in the main room which had a table sunk into the floor with bench seating encircling it. Although Trunks was now up to full strength he gave no sign of waking up, luckily Vegeta had also picked up a trick or too from Bulma to deal with this.

"Son" he said in a calm voice little more that a whisper "if you don't wake up im going to eat all your food"

Quick as a flash the purple haired boy appeared at the table "No dad don't do that im up really, and im starving, is that chocolate cake?"

"Yes son, I…. acquired some from your mother before we left" he said with a smirk.

"Wow dad you're the greatest" Trunks shouted beaming, "it's better than moms cooking too"

"Ha-ha, well said boy, I wouldn't let your mother catch you saying that though or you might be going hungry for a while" Vegeta warned.

A large amount of cake and cream later.

"Right go prepare yourself boy, today we will work on your energy beams power and control, and conditions outside look much more favorable for this kind of activity."

"Sure thing dad, I'll go wash and change, you should too you stink"

"HOW DARE YOU, I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW THIS IS THE SMELL OF HARDWORK AND SUCCESS!"

"How about a little more hard work in the hygiene department" Trunks whispered.

"You sound just like your mother, fine I'll shower meet me outside in 10 minutes."

10 minutes later

Vegeta surveyed the landscape for a suitable target for target practice, he found a small hump for the boy and what looked like a huge upside down icicle sticking out of the ground at least 200 meters high for himself,

"Alright son watch carefully then try yourself" Vegeta instructed "use your most powerful technique."

Vegeta dropped into his stance and gathered his energy, in a flash of golden light he transformed and focused his energy into his attack slowly to show his son how to control it.

"GALICK GUN…. FIRE!"

Vegeta unleashed the enormous power he had gathered in his hands straight at the ice spike, Trunks looked on in awe as the beam hit its target and shattered it into thousands of tiny pieces that rained down on them just like snow.

"Wow" he said absentmindedly

"Your turn Trunks, aim at that hump in the ground about 50 meters away and destroy it"

Trunks dropped his stance and gathered his energy to his outstretched hands, he pulled them behind him and yelled,

"KAMEHAMEHA"

Trunks brought his hands forward and fired a large beam at his target, Vegeta was about to object to the technique his son had chosen, but was left speechless at the huge power now pulsing through his son and the beam, it hit the frozen mound for a few seconds it seemed to do nothing more than melt through a few feet of ice, just as Vegeta was about to scold his son for using a weak attack Trunks sent a large pulse down the wave, as it reached the end a massive explosion ripped through the surface of the planet, Trunks discontinued his attack exhausted and fell to his knees.

"Not bad son, but you could have used an attack for true warriors"

"Gohan uses it and it's the highest power I have ever sensed"

"Oh really we…"

Vegeta didn't finish his rant as a small craft fell from air and landed between the two of them, it was scorched in the pattern of Trunks attack.

"It... it can't be, a saiyan space pod, impossible"

There was a hiss from the pod and the door opened to reveal…

"A child, a female child, with a tail, after all these years finally another has emerged" Vegeta could be heard bellowing for miles "lost in time and space, a full blooded saiyan, I AM NOT ALONE, I AM NOT THE LAST, HAHAHAHA THE SAIYAN RACE SURVIVES."

But deep under the planets surface something was stirring, something big and angry, something coming for saiyans above and nothing would stop them exacting their revenge.

This chapter shall be concluded later in the story.

What does this mean for our heroes, can this really be a saiyan child, and who are these mysterious new foes and what did our hero's do to anger them, find out if they escape with their lives later in, Gohan, a saiyan child story.

With thanks to crazzyredhead, I share rights on ideas with you on this chapter, hope we can work together again
