Author's Note: Alright, on with Chapter 3, and guess who finally wakes up?

With Ty

"Mmm" Ty slowly opened his eyes and was immediately blinded by a bright white light. His vision was completely blurred and he had no idea where he was. He also didn't know where Jaxon was and that was the most important thing to know. As his vision un-blurred, he realized he was in some kind of medical center, and he was alone. Further investigation revealed that his body was in pain, he was covered in body monitors, he was naked (covered with a blanket), and he had some kind of oxygen mask over his mouth. Ty slowly moved his arm to his face. At least three of his fingers were broken, his body was a mess, but he had to find Jaxon, he had to! He pulled the mask off and then pulled off the body monitors. After six minutes, he managed to get them all off. He pulled off the blanket and began the agonizing task of getting out of the bed, "J…Jaxon." Ty's voice sounded very weak, "Ah!" At that moment, Ty toppled out of bed and immediately bit his already cut lip. Only one or two times had he ever been in this much pain. Tears ran down his cheek as he tried to hold it together. After twenty minutes, Ty managed to pull himself up onto a counter with plenty of drawers and handles to hold onto. Ty started to cough up blood, "Oh…what…did I…ever…do…to deserve this?" The 12-year-old coughed in pain. That was a question he found himself asking a lot recently, "And…we'll grab you." Ty said as he grabbed a white hospital robe. He slowly slipped it on but didn't bother to try to tie it in the back; his arms won't bend that far back right now. Just then, something caught his eye: a sword in its' holder. He slowly grabbed it and managed to place it across his chest, at least now he had a weapon.

"Alright Jaxon, here I come." Ty said weakly as he took out the sword and used it to keep his balance as he walked to the door. He peaked out and glanced around, it was empty, "*Cough, *Cough…" Ty coughed up more blood as he limped down the hall. Ty couldn't help but notice how big and nice this place was; it looked expensive. After several turns, he found himself in a more 'homeish' kind of place. Maybe this was one big house, or something like that.

"They went to go and get the pods. Goten went with Gohan to get some stuff from their house, and Mr. Piccolo went to go inform everyone else about the three sentences the kid told us." Said a voice.

"Now Trunks, he's scared, give him a break." Said a female voice.

"Whatever, oh, by the way, he's in my room." Trunks said.

"Hn?" Bulma glanced up.

"He was too afraid to sleep alone so Goten insisted that he sleep in our room." Trunks said, "He went back to bed after everyone left."

"That was nice." Bulma smiled.

"…I wonder what's with that stupid looking book?" Trunks asked.

"Hn." Bulma nodded.

"He slept with it." Trunks said.

"…He did?" Bulma asked.

"I have not seen him without it." Trunks gave a small chuckle.

"Huh." Bulma said as she drank her coffee.

"Hands up." Ty snarled as he limped into the kitchen with the sword. Bulma jumped and Trunks's KI rose, "Come on, hands up." Ty spat; Bulma and Trunks didn't move. "I said put your hands up now!" Ty snarled as he held up the sword. Bulma put her hands up, Trunks didn't.

"…You're awake." Bulma said.

"You, brat, hands up." Ty snarled.

"Excuse me?" Trunks spat.

"Put them up!" Ty screamed.

"Why you…"

"Trunks, just do what he says." Bulma said.

"Grrr…" Trunks blushed and put his hands up; he would not be held up in his own home.

"Who are you?" Ty coughed.

"My name is Bulma, this is my son Trunks." Bulma said.

"What the frak kind of name is 'Trunks'?" The boy snorted.

"Grrr!" Trunks would not stand for this, especially not in his own home.

"Hmm…" Ty studied them carefully, "…What religion are you?" Trunks and Bulma both stared at him. "Answer the frakking question!" Ty yelled.

"…Well, it's kind of complex." Bulma said, considering how their God was a green Martian.

"For fraks sake." Ty coughed as he spit up some more blood, his eyes never leaving Trunks, "Are you Vashmall?" Ty growled.

"…Who the hell is that?" Trunks growled.

Ty stared at him, "You would have told me, it's the law. Guess that rules that out." Coughed Ty, "…Unless you've been hired by Herelaah to capture us." Ty snarled.

"Herewhat?" Trunks asked.

"Herelaah, not Herewhat." Ty spat.

"What ever the hell his name is, who is he?" Trunks growled.

"…Herelaah…of the Vashmallian Empire…leader of the Vashmall…holy prophet Here…Herelaah stupid!" Ty spat.

Trunks and Bulma just stared at him, "Who?" They both said in unison.

"Imagine that, I found the two stupidest people in the Universe." Ty sighed, he sounded relieved. He lowered the sword giving Trunks the chance to kick him to the ground and take back his sword.

"Don't you ever threaten my family again!" Trunks snarled as he held up the sword. His face changed when he saw the look in the young teen's eyes…he looked like he was in sever pain and now he was spitting up more blood, "Are…you…ok?" Trunks asked.

"Mmm…" Ty fought back tears as he shook with pain. He hadn't been in this much pain since Planet Voon.

"…Let's get him to the couch." Bulma said as she walked over to the young teen. Trunks and his mother gently lifted him up and moved him into the living room. They gently laid him on the couch and took a step back.

"…If…I…don't ask…now then…then…then…I…I…frak it…I'll just ask…if you…want us t…to leave, you…you don't have to k…kill us…w…we'll le…leave and n…never c…come back." Ty coughed. Bulma and Trunks looked at each other, "Please…I know…it may see…seem like…the only choice…but…I…I will n…never c…come back i…if you spare m…me and m…m…my little brother." Ty coughed as a tear ran down his cheek.

"…We…weren't….we…we…" Bulma was unsure of how to respond to something like that. He was begging for his life like he expected that they were going to kill him. Ty leaned over the side of the couch and began to cough up more blood. Trunks remembered what the others said, but right now this kid was in a lot of pain, he was begging for his life for no reason, and he wanted to see his little brother.

"Mom, I think we should give him a Senzu Bean." Trunks said.

"Are you sure?" Bulma whispered. Ty continued to cough up blood. "All right, go and get him a bean and wake his brother up, I'm sure he'll want to see him." Bulma said.

"Come with me though." Trunks said.

"Why?" Bulma asked.

"Cause he threatened you with a sword, that's why." Trunks growled. The safety of his family was always his top priority.

"Hn." Bulma didn't argue, not about these kinds of things at least, "We'll be right back." Bulma said as she walked off with Trunks.

"Mmm…" Ty waited a moment and then put two fingers in his mouth. He whistled, "Taz, I know…you're around here somewhere…I c…can smell ya." Ty coughed; almost instantly Taz came running into the room and began to lick Ty's face, "Eww…don't…lick me…not with that mouth." Ty laughed, "So…you're still alive…isn't that strange?" Ty asked as he scratched his pet's head. After about another minute, Trunks and Bulma returned.

"Grah!" Taz snarled as he got in front of Ty.

"Whoa." Trunks said as he backed away. This thing looked scarier than dogs when it got mad.

"…Wh…what is a senzu bean?" Ty coughed.

"It's a magic bean that will make you feel better." Bulma said.

"Bull shit. It's really something that'll k…k…kill me…isn't it? Or maybe p…put me to sleep until Herelaah and his ship gets here?" The boy coughed.

"…Who's coming here?" Bulma and Trunks asked.

"…You seriously have no idea who I'm t…t…talking about?" Ty asked, it was really hard to believe.

"No clue." The two said.

"…You two are either the smartest bounty hunters I've ever seen, or the dumbest people I've ever met." Ty let out a small chuckle.

"Hey!" Trunks snarled.

"Rah!" Taz barked; Trunks backed away.

"Stand down Taz…I really don't…think…they know what I'm talking about." Ty coughed. Everyone he has ever met has heard of the Vashmall and Herelaah. Even the people hired to capture him or kill him admit that they know the Vashmall, and that's usually a dead give away that they're either trying to kill him or capture him.

"Grah…" Taz moved to the other side of the room and Trunks got out the bean.

"…I'm going to give you this on one condition, tell us who these people are right after you eat the bean." Trunks said.

"…I don't do anything until I see my brother." Ty said.

"Fine, he was still asleep when I went to check on him, but I give you the bean, you wake him up, and then you start giving us answers." Trunks growled.

"Yea, yea, what ever you say." Ty growled. Trunks slowly handed him the bean. Ty stared at it, sniffed it, and studied it like it was some kind of trap.

"…You chew it." Trunks growled.

"…What's to say that this won't kill me?" Ty asked.

"Cause if we wanted you dead we would have killed you before you landed, but we sensed you arrive and we wanted to see who you were first." Trunks said.

"Trunks!" Bulma yelled; he didn't have to say it like that.

"…You sensed us before we got here?" Ty asked.

"Of course." Trunks said, "It's not a very hard thing to do."

"…Taz." Ty grunted; Taz walked over and sniffed the bean.

"Grah." The beast barked as he went back over to the corner. With that, Ty ate the bean and his eyes shot wide open.

"Th…" Before Trunks had time to react, Trunks now had the tip of his sword's blade touching his neck.

"…My brother." Ty said slowly.

"Upstairs." Trunks said.

"Boy! Woman! What is with all the blood?" Vegeta yelled as he walked in with Goku. Everyone made eye contact, and Vegeta powered up a KI blast and aimed it Ty. "Who the hell healed you?" Vegeta snarled.

"I did." Trunks said as he kept his eye on the sword; still touching his neck, maybe if this wasn't a magic sword, he wouldn't be worried.

"Did I tell you too?" Vegeta spat.

"He was coughing up blood and he looked like he was in a lot of pain." Trunks said.

"What's with the blood?" Vegeta growled.

"I walked up here." Ty growled.

"If I were you, I'd put that sword down." Vegeta spat.

"You'd like that, wouldn't you? So you can blast me into dust, no, I want my brother in this room, and then I'll set the sword down." Ty said.

"You're in no position to give orders." Vegeta snarled.

"Neither are you." Ty said.

"It's my house!" Vegeta yelled.

"Taz." Ty said.

"Grrr!" Taz got into a defensive stance as he locked onto Vegeta.

"Like that hideous looking thing could hurt me." Vegeta laughed.

"Hn." Ty smirked causing Vegeta to study the creature again. He didn't know what that was, maybe it could transform into something more powerful like it did before. Maybe it has multiple transformations, "Listen, you can kill me, knock me out, kick me off the planet, do as you wish, but at least let me see my brother, please." Ty said

"Woman, go get the brat." Vegeta growled.

"Be back in a second." Bulma ran off and there was an awkward silence.

"I'm Son Goku." Goku smiled as he took a step forwards.

"Ty." Ty grunted.

"Is that short for something?" Goku asked.

"Yes, but I prefer Ty." The boy growled.

"Hn" Goku nodded.

"You're going to cut my neck open if you push any harder." Trunks growled as the sword started to cut into his skin.

"Did I give you permission to talk?" Ty snarled as he shot the boy a very threatening death stare. Trunks looked at his father who slightly shook his head. For now, it was best if Trunks played by Ty's rules.

"We brought your pods to the house." Goku said.

"So you are throwing us off the planet?" Ty asked.

"No, no one's throwing you anywhere." Goku said.

"…What religion are you?" Ty grunted.

"Well, it really doesn't have a name, but we all kind of look up to Dende, and the KAIs." Goku said.

"So you're not a part of the Vashmall?" Ty asked.

"Grrr!" Vegeta powered up to Super Saiyan and powered up another KI blast in his hand, "What the fuck do you know about the Vashmall?" Snarled the Saiyan Prince. That's where he'd seen that symbol before! Prophet Herelaah!

"Hah." Ty was speechless. He didn't feel like dying today, even though he was prepared to if the time came.

"Ty!" Ty turned and was tackled to the ground by Jaxon who was still holding the book.

"Your sword." Ty said as he handed Trunks his sword, "Hey buddy, how ya doin?" Ty smiled as he gave his only family a hug.

"I…I…I thought you were gona die." Jaxon sniffed as his eyes watered.

"Hey, it takes a lot more than a few hired-hands to take me down." Ty smirked as he ruffled the boy's hair. The older boy looked at Vegeta who was still powered up.

"Vegeta, calm down." Goku said.

"No Kakarott, these two know something about the Vashmallians and they are going to tell me why that is or I'm going to blast them into dust." Vegeta snarled.

"Mmm…" Jaxon hid in his brother's arms as Ty slowly got up. He sat down on the couch and looked down at Jaxon. Jaxon had always been just a little small for his age. He was a little shorter than Goten, but that was probably due to malnutrition.

"Hold up the book." Ty mumbled. He wanted to truly see if they knew about any of this stuff. Jaxon held up the book and everyone stared at it. "Do you know what this is?" Ty asked.

"A Book." Trunks said.

"No shit." Ty growled.

"It wasn't a very hard question." Trunks grunted.

"Oh for the love of…do you know what this is or not?" The older boy growled. Quite honestly he hated dealing with kids, of course Jaxon wasn't a kid. That boy was a man in his eyes for everything he's been through, he had total respect for his younger brother.

"No." Everyone said.

"Hn." Ty took a deep breath, "You might as well take a seat, it's gona be a long story." That would give him enough time to think of an escape plan. Maybe he could find the pods and get off the planet before they killed him.

"Actually, let's wait for Piccolo, Gohan, and his brother." Vegeta said as he slowly powered down.

"Ok." Ty grunted, "…I…don't suppose I could trouble you for a glass of water?"

"Are you hungry too?" Vegeta asked

"I mean…if you have anything lying around…like some bread…or…ya know?" Ty didn't expect much, if anything.

"Trunks, front in center." Vegeta said. Trunks quickly ran up to his father, "Go and get him something to eat, fill the plate up, and bring back some water."

"Yes sir." Trunks nodded and ran off.

"So let's get something straight, you two are not Vashmallians, right?" Vegeta asked. Jaxon and Ty looked at him with pure disgust; that motherfrakker did NOT just call them Vashmallians. Vegeta couldn't help but laugh; "I'll take that as a no then."

"They are the most vile group of scum to ever plague this Hell Hole Universe." Ty snarled.

"They're a bunch of jerks!" Jaxon shouted.

"Hn." Vegeta nodded.

"That's why you powered up? You thought we were working for Herelaah?" Ty said.

"Yes, and something occurred a while back in which case a very powerful being was released. We're a lot more careful about who we let on the planet." Vegeta said.

"Seems rational." Ty nodded.

"Well, you're awake." Jaxon slightly tensed causing Ty to already not trust the large green thing in front of him.

"And you are?" Ty asked.

"…Piccolo." The Namekian grunted.

"Grrr…" Taz got up and began to growl at the man.

"Hn?" Jaxon said as he looked at the book. Jaxon's looked directly to the sky and his eyes widened, "Eight Days." Jaxon said.

"What?" Ty shot up.

"They must have fixed their engine problems, they're moving almost twice as fast." Jaxon said. Ty collapsed back to the couch and looked at the ground, now there was no way they could out run them.

"Eight days until what?" Goku asked.

"…They're coming, the guys who are chasing us." Jaxon said quietly.

"The Vashmallians are coming here?!" Vegeta asked. That was kind of unfair, their time of peace just started, like half a year ago.

"Yup, eight days." Jaxon said.

"Something you wish to share, Vegeta?" Piccolo grunted.

"We'll let them explain first." Vegeta grunted.

"Ok, I'm back." Trunks said as he carried in a massive plate of food and a large cup of water.

"Hah." Ty's jaw dropped.

"Here." Trunks said as he put it on the table Ty stared at him and then glanced at the food.

"…Taz." Ty mumbled.

"Gruh." The animal walked up to the food and sniffed it, "Grah." The beast barked and nodded

"Hn." Ty gently lifted Jaxon off his lap and launched at the plate of food. Everyone backed away as the mountain of food slowly got smaller and smaller.

At The Front Door

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Coming." Chi Chi said as she walked up to the door. She had been making up some of the guest rooms while Trunks filled his mother in on what happened last night and this morning. Bulma thought it would be a wonderful idea if the Sons stayed at Capsule Corp.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Hold on, just a minute." Chi Chi said as she opened the door.

Bam! Chi Chi hit the wall and black out.

"Hm hm hmm." A man wrapped in black cloth so the only part of his body visible was his glowing blue eyes walked in; he had a sword in each hand.

With Ty And Jaxon

"Hah…" Jaxon dropped the book and turned. He dropped the book for the first time since he got there.

"Hm?" Trunks watched the book slowly float back up into his hand, "What the heck was that?" Trunks asked. Ty shot up and spit his food out onto Trunks. :Hah…" Trunks just stared at him with wide eyes; oh no he didn't.

"Frak!" Ty screamed as he grabbed Trunks's sword and turned just in time to block the two swords.

"What the hell?" Vegeta snarled as he watched the two battle it out with the swords. He then realized someone was holding onto his leg. He looked down to see Jaxon hiding in fear.

"Come on!" Ty snarled as he dodged the swords and blocked attacks.

"Bleckshon morphil dalah." The man snarled in an alien language as he dodged Ty's sword.

"Yea, well, frak you too." Ty spat as he tried to hit the man with his sword, "Ah!" Screamed the boy as one of the swords cut across the side of his face.

"Ha!" Piccolo snarled as he launched at the swordsman. The swordsman dodged and cut off Piccolo's right arm, "Ah!" The Namekian screamed at the top of his lungs.

"Ah ha ha." The man laughed as he watched Piccolo begin to bleed, "…Ah!" The alien screamed as Ty cut off both of his arms.

"You foul piece of shit!" Ty snarled as he stabbed the man through his chest and then kicked his body off. He swung his sword and cut the man's head off and then stabbed the head with the sword. He fired a blast at the head causing it to catch fire and roll of the blade. He quickly turned and held the sword against Goten's neck, "You're next Vashmallian swine." Ty snarled.

"Hah!" Goten froze and glanced at the others.

"Hn?" Ty's eyes widened and he looked over at Goku. They were wearing the same fighting GI, with the exception that Goten's had long blue sleeves instead of short ones like Goku's, "I'm guessing he's your son?" Ty asked.

"Yes." Goku said as he slowly powered up.

"Don't hurt him." Jaxon said as he peaked from behind Vegeta.

"Hn." Ty lowered the sword and closed his eyes, "…He brought friends." Ty grunted.

"…Mama was hurt." Goten said quietly, "Gohan told me to make sure everyone else was ok."

"Chi Chi?" Goku asked as he ran off.

"Ha!" Piccolo snarled as his arm regenerated. Ty just stared at him, it wasn't the first time he'd seen someone do that.

"Thanks for the help." Ty said.

"Well, I can't say I really did anything." Piccolo grunted.

"You distracted him, giving me the chance to kill him." Ty smirked.

"Hm." Piccolo gave a smirk of his own.

"You said there were others?" Vegeta asked.

"Yes, four more, they have the house surrounded." Ty said.

"Why can't I sense them?" Vegeta asked.

"Keep searching, you'll pick them up." Ty said. Vegeta really concentrated and then opened his eyes.

"Yes, I count four." Vegeta said.

"Trust me, it becomes a lot easier when they get closer. They're wearing something that masks energy." Ty said as he picked up one of the swords, it was curved. He grabbed the other one and walked over to Jaxon. "Here, don't cut yourself like last time." The young teen grunted.

"Hn." Jaxon took the sword but kept a hold on Vegeta, the man showed that he didn't like the Vashmall, and he was strong.

"Taz, Vashmall, defend!" Ty said slowly.

"Grah!" Taz roared as his fur went back into his skin and his body turned into something that resembled a lizard. He had claws on all four legs, a long tail, spikes on his back, very big and sharp teeth, and he looked scary as hell.

"What the hell?" Bulma yelped as she got behind Vegeta.

"Boy, listen up." Vegeta said as he turned to his son. Trunks turned to his father, "Take your mother and Jaxon to the labs and wait there until I come to get you." Vegeta said

"Aww, why can't they just…"

"Grrr!" Vegeta growled.

"Yes sir." Trunks gulped, "Let's go." The boy said as he grabbed his mother's arm and ran off, "Grandma! Grandpa!" The boy yelled as he ran to go secure his grandparents

"Go on, the boy will keep you safe." Vegeta said as he patted Jaxon on the back.

"Come on!" Trunks yelled.

"Hey kid." Ty yelled. Trunks looked at the young teen, "If anything happens to my brother, I'll do to you what I did to him." Ty snarled as he pointed his sword at the boy.

"Yea, yea, calm the fuck down." Trunks growled as he ran up to Jaxon, grabbed his arm, and ran with his mother to the labs.

"Don't tell me to calm the frak down, stupid brat." Ty mumbled.

"Goten…" Goku said as he came in with Chi Chi's arm over his shoulder, "Take her with them; give her a senzu bean." Goku said.

"K." Goten nodded as he took his mother down to the labs.

"Wai!" Ty yelled.

"Huh?" Goten turned.

"You watch after my little brother too, show no mercy, if someone you don't know comes down there, kill them, make sure you blast the head, it's rare, but I've had bodies get up after I cut the head off." Ty said. Goten looked at the older boy with wide eyes. "And if anything happens to Jaxon, I'll rip out your intestines, wrap them around your neck, and choke you." Ty spat. Goten looked at the alien boy in shock.

"Goten, go!" Goku yelled as he powered up, Goten ran off.

"Alright kid, head on down to the labs, we'll handle these worms." Vegeta said as he powered up.

"Yea, I'll head down to the labs and come back up to find your blood everywhere. This is my fight and don't tell me what to do." Ty growled, he took orders from no one.

"Are you saying I can't take these weaklings on?" Vegeta growled.

"Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying, now stay out of my way, I know what I'm doing." Ty spat as he ran off.

"That little punk!" Vegeta spat as he ran after him.

"This'll be fun." Gohan smirked as he followed them.

"Yup." Goku said as he joined the others.

"Hmph." Piccolo was the last to leave.

"Jublash-knaw." A Swordsman grunted as he snuck into the room and looked around. The book was close; he could feel it. He sprinted in the direction Jaxon and Trunks went.

AN ABSOLUTELY EVIL PLACE TO STOP, BUT WHEN I WRITE MY STORIES, I DON'T MAKE CHAPTERS AS I'M WRITING, I GO BACK AND DIVIDE THEM UP. ANYWAYS, PLEASE REVIEW, AND NEXT CHAPTER IS A VERY IMPORTANT CHAPTER!
