Sorry its been a while readers I have been so busy recently my feet haven't touched the ground, but here it is the next chapter I know its not great I just knocked it up quickly sorry, I will start updating more regularly again now.
Is there no end to Gohan's talent?
We all know that Gohan is a master of the martial arts, has the brains of a scholar and is capable of pure kindness and compassion, but when pushed too far can be totally ruthless and unforgiving to his enemies. In short Gohan can master anything he puts his mind to, but is there more talent waiting to be discovered?
"Come on you little pest, I almost got you, almost, almost…." Lime threw herself towards Icarus and wrapped her arms around him, "Ha got you, yes, yes, yes!"
Lime looked over to Gohan who was leaned against a tree watching, he had his classic Son grin and gave her a thumbs up before floating over to congratulate her and pet Icarus.
"Well that concludes the first part of your training; you should be strong and fast enough for the next part." Gohan paused for a moments thought, "but I want you to be at full strength for when we start, so I think a week of rest is in order."
Gohan and Lime said goodbye to Icarus but promised to go see him during the next week then began their walk home. Not long into the journey Lime began to hear a faint humming sound, thinking it was an animal she looked round carefully to try and spot what it was making this melodious sound, not able to find what she was looking for Lime turned to Gohan only to find what she had been looking for the past 5 minuets. This was a totally new Gohan to Lime, although he had always been naturally up beat and happy Gohan had always been very grown up and mature almost serious, but strolling along humming his tune Lime couldn't help think he looked like the care free boy he never got the chance to be and she was reminded that he was almost a whole year younger than she was.
"Gohan I didn't know you was musical"
"What, oh it's just a song my dad used to sing to me when I was young"
"I've never heard you sing before, how come you haven't sung before? We spend nearly all day together."
"I used to sing a lot when I studied, and you already know about all the drawing I used to do."
"Wow, so can u sing it for me?"
"Let's get something to eat first im starving," Gohan smiled rubbing his head "I promise I will later."
"Yeah! Thanks Gohan" Lime threw her arms around Gohan and placed a kiss on his cheek.
Meanwhile in a secret underground base
"Vesper, what do you have that is so important to interrupt my training?"
"My lord, we are getting new information about that strong power level we detected," Vesper hesitated.
"And, what's the problem?"
"Well… it seems that it's a young girl and she has managed to double her power in the last few months."
"WHAT! How is that possible?"
"It appears that she is being instructed by a young blonde boy, but they can't get a power reading on him, yet they have observed him flying."
"Blonde you say, did they get a look at his eyes?"
"Yes my lord," Vesper pushed some buttons on his computer, "they say he has 'cold teal eyes' that seemed to flash as if an untold power was coursing through them."
"Really, I believe I know what this boy is and if im right we could have a problem." The tyrant looked slightly uneasy with his thoughts.
"My lord, this boy can't possibly be a saiyan can he?" Vesper recoiled
"He may or may not be, but the fact remains these pests will need to be taken care of, tell Captain Combat and Lieutenant Laser to take out the target."
"Yes my lord."
Vesper bowed to the disappearing form of his master, he then turned to his computer and typed furiously, in seconds the snarling scar riddled face of Captain Combat appeared.
"Captain you have a go to take out the target."
"Yes sir, we'll fetch these rats back in a body bag for ya." The captain responded gruffly.
"Be on guard Captain we have reason to believe the blonde boy is a saiyan and is masking his power from our scanners."
Back at the Son household
"Gohan I left my jacket down by the lake, im goin to pop down and get it," Lime yelled through the door, "and when I get back you better be ready for your little concert."
Gohan waved her off and returned to the house, he was taking advantage of his mother visiting capsule corp. to get some uninterrupted me time, but for some reason today he was unable to relax there was a nagging feeling in the back of his mind that told him they were being watched, and one thing his training had taught him is was to trust his instincts.
Just as Gohan was starting to think he was paranoid he felt a spike in Limes energy followed by two much larger ones appearing from nowhere, instantly Gohan powered up his flaming golden aura swallowing him and promptly blasted towards the lake.
"Hang in there Lime, im on my way!"
At the lake
Lime skipped down the well travelled path between Gohan's house and the lake taking in deep breaths of the fresh mountain air, it usually filled her with a deep sense of well-being and contentedness but today there was something different about the air, as if it had been tainted by or corrupted by some dark power, then she felt it a Ki so dark and powerful it made her shudder.
"I know you are there I can feel your Ki" Lime shouted to no response, Lime began raising her power quickly hoping Gohan would get the signal, "come out you cant hide from me, i'll blast you out if I have to." She yelled with all the fake confidence she could muster.
"There wont be any need for that" came a cold voice.
A man not much taller than Lime appeared as if from the air itself a few metres in front her, his face was scarred quite severely, no doubt from countless battles.
"No, we don't want to cause any unnecessary harm to you before our master has seen you." came another even colder and somewhat darker voice from behind.
Lime turned so she stood between the two, one to her left one to the right, one of the things Gohan had taught her is you don't have your back to the enemy, the second man had deep blue scale like skin and wore a devise over his eye beeping and flashing.
"what's the word laser?" asked the first.
"she is only reading a power level of 10,000 captain, no problems here" laser breathed sadistically.
"excellent, I don't know why Master is so concerned about these children, this one is so weak." the captain snarled.
"Just wait till my Gohan gets here, he's the most powerful warrior on this planet, no in this galaxy." Limes confidence began to slip away as the two advanced towards her.
Gohan could feel the panic rising in Limes Ki it was time to make his move, using his extreme speed Gohan faded out and appeared right behind Laser and with a swift kick to his lower back sent him flying towards his comrade.
"aghhhhh" Laser screamed hitting the floor hard right in front of the captain.
"where the hell did he come from"
" ouch that little brat packs quite a hit" Laser picked himself up off the floor to stand next to his smaller counterpart.
"hmm, you guys aren't too smart if you didn't sense me coming" Gohan said in a hard level voice.
"you think so little brat, I think its you that's not too clever by attacking us" Laser yelled in offence waving his fist in the air.
"who are you and who do you serve?" Gohan probed.
"pleasantries first huh kid ok then, I am Captain Combat and my blue friend here is Lieutenant Laser we are the elite force that serve the Lord Master of the old galactic empire, and who might you be little boy?" he asked mockingly.
"I am Son Gohan, son of Goku the defeater of Friezer, im destroyer of the one known as Cell and defender of this planet and champion of all that is good and just."
"Ahh that explains why the Master has interest in you boy, he witnessed your power at the cell games" suddenly serious Captain Combat took in Gohan properly for the first time.
"Laser get a reading on this guy"
"Yes sir"
Laser pressed a button on his eye attachment which started beeping and flashing, after a while of fiddling with the devise laser gave up in frustration.
"Sir the scouter is unable to get a lock on the boys power"
"Like I said, you aren't very smart if you haven't learned how to read power levels for yourself, I however know that your power level laser is currently resting at 50,000 and has a potential of roughly 500,000, and your captain here is resting at 80'000 and has a potential of 750,000 quite respectably, but not by Saiyan standards, I shall allow you to see my current resting power, then you can run home and tell your Master." Gohan smirked.
"HAHA, whatever you say boy, go ahead reveal your pewny power." Laser joked.
Laser once again pressed the button on his scouter, Gohan took a deep breath and exhaled lowering his Ki dampening field, Lasers eyes began to widen as the numbers on his screen began to climb, seemingly without end.
"Hes at 300,000, no wait its going up, 500,000 now 800,000, NO WAY IT CANT BE 1 MILLION POWER!" laser stumbled back slightly.
"Don't be absurd Laser, the thing must be broken give it to me."
Captain Combat fitted the scouter and followed the same process as Laser, and got the same result.
"How can this be? Your just a boy, no matter we can still bring something back for our Master." Combat motioned laser over to him and whispered in his ear, "right here's the plan, im going to distract the boy and you grab the girl and get her back to HQ ok, with your superior speed he will never catch you."
Laser nodded in agreement and they turned to face Lime and Gohan unaware of Gohan's excellent hearing who knew their plan and had already warned Lime.
"ok Saiyan boy, TAKE THIS"
combat launched a full power beam at Gohan, which was merely deflected by one of his own and two other seeking Kamehameha's causing the captain to keep a wide birth, meanwhile Lime had shot backwards at full speed followed by Laser who was cackling wildly, but …...
"offft..."
Laser was caught full in the stomach by Gohan's fist and all the air Gushed out of his lungs, Gohan bent to Lasers ear and whispered,
"Bad idea, now im going to destroy you"
Gohan removed his fist and let Laser fall onto his waiting foot which then launched the man high into the sky with a bone crushing kick, Gohan pulled back his hands and gathered his energy.
"Now you die, KAMEHAMEHA!"
A bright blue beam shot towards Laser unable to do anything but watch he was hit full frontal by the beam where he was split into atoms that floated in the wind. The captain had stopped to see this and was caught from both sides from the two beams tracking him with an almighty explosion and he fell to the ground hard, Gohan landed in front of him.
"I think you should go tell your master what happened here today, and if he knew what's best for him he will leave this planet," Gohan lifted the mad so they were face to face and breathed, "Or I will destroy you all."
Gohan dropped The captain who promptly scrambled away, he then walked over to an exhausted and distressed Lime who he picked up bridal style and smiled warmly down at her, she smiled back.
"your great Gohan" she whispered, "a bit bright though" she chuckled.
"Sorry" Gohan muttered dropping his aura, "its getting late lets get you home."
A short while later Gohan was tucking Lime into bed, just as he got up to leave Lime grabbed his arm and held him in place.
"not so fast you, I believe you promised to sing for me."
"Oh yeah right, ok my dad sang this to me every night."
Don't stop, don't stop! We're in luck now!
Don't stop, there's so much to be found!
We can find paradise,
All we have to do is go! Go! Free your soul.
Mysteries abound made of a deep energy.
Foes all around, But I will go fearless and free.
I'll give you strength, You give me love. That's how we'll live.
Courage won't fade. If you're with me, my enemies can never win.
We will fight for love and glory. We will live to tell the story.
There is nothing we can't live through - Nothing ever dies; we will rise again.

Don't stop, there's so much to be found.
We can find paradise.
All we have to do is go! Go! Free your soul.
Dragon soul!
Lime was fast asleep when Gohan had finished, he kissed her forehead and left the room.
"Dad, I wish you was still here to sing that to me."
