Chapter 6: Contact.


It was dark. Everything was dark. Diego saw nothing but darkness all around and just him standing in the middle of wherever he was. He looked all around him "Where the fuck am I? Why is all dark? I don't think to remember that there could be night on the room." he said to himself as he started to walk with no direction in mind "Gohan! Where are you dude?!" Diego called out to the demi-saiyan but no response.

He kept walking and he began to try and remember everything that has happened since before he found himself where he stood "Okay, lets see. I remember that I was meditating trying to turn Super Saiyan. I know that what triggers the transformation is emotion, mainly anger. Then, I remember that when I gave myself to my anger a enormous power started to flow from me. The next minute or so everything was just a blur but then I remember looking at my hands and the sense of a new power running through my body. I also remember looking at the golden aura dancing around me and conforming that I achieve the Super Saiyan status, but everything went blank after that." Diego stood there in deep thought when he heard a faint voice calling for him

"Diego, where are you my son?" said a feminine voice that Diego recognized in an instant "M-mom? I-Is that you?" he quietly said first "MOM! I'M RIGHT HERE!" Diego shouted as he ran to where the voice came from "Diego, where are you? I can't see you!" called Diego's mom "STAY THERE MOM! I WILL BE THERE!" Diego shouted even more as he was excited and his eyes getting watery at the thought of finally seeing his mom since he disappeared from his Earth "MOM! Where are you?!" Diego asked as he stopped running "I'm right here Diego!" she responded as the voice came to Diego's right "I'm going!"

Diego ran for almost ten minutes until he started to see a light like he was reaching the end of a tunnel. He kept running towards the light until it became too bright that he had to cover his face with his hand as he stopped running. He removed his hand from his face and slowly opening his eyes as they started to adjust at the brightness when he then shot them open as he realized he was at his old room "The hell is going on? Am I back home?" he wondered as he looked all around him and he was indeed was in his old room. Diego then stopped his tracks when he heard his mom once more "Diego! Food is ready!" she shouted and Diego's eyes glimmered for a bit at the thought of having his mom's cooking again. Sure, Chi-chi's cooking was the best but there is nothing like the food cooked by one's mom.

Diego ran out his room and went to the kitchen where he saw his mom. He sniffed twice before tackling his mom in a hug "There, there, Everything will be fine son." she said as she patted Diego in the head in a comforting manner "I've–missed–you–so–much–mom!" he said in between sniffs now tears rolling down his face "I've missed you too son." she said in a sweet voice "Everyone misses you Diego. Where did you go, son." she said as her voice started to break as a knot formed in the back of his throat

"I'm somewhere very far away mom. I don't know how I got here but all you have to know is that I have been safe this whole time, mom." he said sniffing "I'm glad to know you are good since going missing long ago." his mom said as they both to the living room and sat on the couch next to each other "How's everyone been since I was gone, mom?" he asked looking at her "Everyone's been fine. Just very sad and concerned to where you have gone without saying a word." she responded

"So where did you go?" she asked once more "It's hard to explain but," he said as he lift his hand a little bit and created a ball of Ki in his hand "I went some place where I can do this type of thing." he said as he made the ball disappear and his mom staring at his hand but had a look of relief, as if she knew what he just did "Remember that show I use to watch when I was a kid? The one with Goku?" he asked

"Yeah, that cartoon you still watch." she responded looking at him now. Diego sweat-dropped "It's called Anime, but yes. I some how ended up there mom. The people there taught me how to do this and thanks to this I have been safe. I will find a way to go back mom, I promise!" she just smiled at him "Diego, is time for you to wake up." she said that made Diego cock his head "What do you mean that I have to wake up?" he asked in curiosity

"Come on son, wake up." Diego fearing that this was just a dream, he quickly hugged his mom "I love you and miss you so much mom. You and my sisters." he said as tears started to roll down "Don't worry son, we all are fine. We all miss you too." she said "But is time to wake up." she said one last time as everything went bright in flash and it got dark again.

He slowly opened his eyes and them shot them open starring at the ceiling. He wasn't on his room, he was at the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. He felt dried tears on his face and looked down at the pillow which showed a few fresh drops. He realized that those where his tears. He slowly smiled upon realizing that he had just talked to his mom through his dreams. He now felt more happy and more at ease knowing that his family was safe.


Back to his Earth


His mom slowly opened her eyes and smiled, she was glad that his son just talked to her on her dreams and told her that he was fine and still alive. He had told her that will come back and just to wait for him, this made her eyes watery and tears started to roll down her face. Those were tears of happiness and joy. "I hope to see you soon, son." she thought to herself.


Hyperbolic Time Chamber


Diego got out of bed and realized he was still wearing his gi. He now was wondering who long he was out for. He then felt Gohan's Ki and guessed that he was still training.

Gohan threw some punches in the air like he was fighting someone. He then followed with a high and kick while doing some flips on the air and landing in a fighting stance, he felt Diego's energy closing by "You decided to wake up, huh?" sarcastically said Gohan as he wiped some sweat from his eyebrow "How long was I out for?" Diego asked "Mmmm...for an entire day I will say." responded Gohan

"Felt like I was out longer than that. Anyways, what do you say about a spar huh? Now that I am also a Super Saiyan I want to master the transformation, just the way you and your dad did when you two trained here." said Diego "Finally, I have been waiting for you to say that." said Gohan as he jumped backwards to get some distance between him and Diego

Diego dropped in a power up stance as he closed his eyes to concentrate "C'mon, I already have transformed therefore I should have the transformation at my disposal." thought Diego as he concentrated for a second trying to tap into his newly achieved power "Found ya!" he thought as he shot his eyes open turning to a teal color, his muscle mass grew, the end of his hair spiked up turning flashing gold "HAAAAAAAA!" one last yell and the golden aura exploded around Diego.

The Super Saiyan aura danced like a wild fire around Diego "Getting the hang out it rather quickly." Diego muttered to himself "Ready?" asked Gohan as he got in a fighting stance and Diego then got into a rather different stance that Gohan. He simply raised his fists close to his face in a protective way and lightly hopped in place and took a boxing stance. Gohan bewildered asked "What's with that stance?"

Diego simply smirked "Oh, don't worry about my stance. Worry about what it will do against your martial arts." he said

They had a staring contest waiting for either one of them to make the first move, just as Gohan disappeared from sight Diego followed suit.

Thunderous claps were heard as they took the fight to the air and exchanged blows but neither of them let a hit pass through their defense. Gohan was surprised that Diego was able to keep up with him. Diego sent a jab but Gohan merely dodged it by tilting his head to the side but did not expect the thing; as Diego's punch went through the side of Gohan's head he quickly bent his arm and elbowed Gohan on the brow

Diego kneed Gohan on the stomach as he doubled on pain, quickly Diego hammered him to the ground but Gohan pushed an amount of ki and halted his flight.

Gohan wiped a little trail of blood coming from the side of his mouth and smirked "You are getting good." he said as he looked up at Diego "Right?" responded Diego as he flew towards Gohan cocking his right fist, Gohan saw that and he also flew towards Diego cocking his left fist and as they came closer, both sent their jab simultaneously hitting each other on the cheek.

After a second that felt like a minute they both became blurs and then thunderous claps were heard again. They exchanged blows but this time making contact. Diego then got back in to his boxer stand and sent a barrage of blows surprisingly jabbing Gohan on the jaw and chest.

One of Diego's punches sent him flying backwards but was able to catch himself in mid-air "C'mon Gohan, I know you can do more than that. You don't have to hold back." said Diego calmly but he started to feel the strain on his body from not being used to the transformation "I gotta end this quick" Diego thought as he dropped down to the ground with Gohan following suit.

Diego took both hands to his side as a blue ki ball formed between his hands "KA–ME..." he chanted.

Gohan's eyes widen at the sight of Diego charging a very powerful Kamehameha. This time though, he did the same. Gohan took both hands to his side as he charged up a Kamehameha as well "KA–ME..."

"HA–ME..." they both chanted as the blue orb of concentrated energy grew two times it size with lighting surrounding it. The light coming from both attacks engulfed everything around them, bits of dust floated around them from the energy put into the attacks. Normally, they wouldn't try a Kamehameha this powerful back into the outside world because of possibly destroying the Earth.

They were far enough from the room so it doesn't get caught in the destructive power of the two Kamehameha's colliding with each other, they made sure of that.

"HAAAAA!" they both launched their attack simultaneously flying towards each other at incredible speed. There was a huge explosion from both attacks coming in contact with each other.

Neither of them was giving in, the attacks didn't move from the middle. For a minute they kept it like but then Diego's energy was running low and the transformation was putting him in much more strain "Dammit, I didn't know how much strain this gives you. Hurts like a bitch." Diego thought as his Kamehameha was starting to give in and Gohan's Kamehameha started to move towards Diego.

"He is losing power, the transformation must be giving him a toll since he is not used to it" thought Gohan as Diego lost the transformation "Dammit." said Diego as his arms fell limp and saw the Kamehameha coming to him but on the last second it shot up just missing him by a hair.

The Kamehameha disappeared at the distance. Diego had a scared and nervous look, his eyes big as plates and pale as milk when he saw the wave speeding to him. He was back at his normal state, his hair wan no longer in a pony-tail so it was all over his face.

Gohan still had his hands extended in front of him, he lightly panted from the exhaustion. He was back to his normal form as well. He wiped some sweat from his brow and sighed loudly "That was a good spar." he said looking at Diego who was now lying face up looking at the...sky?

"It was good." he responded "But I need to master the transformation rather asap." he said ass he got up "Well, we still have 10 months to go." said Gohan as he offered his hand to Diego so he could get up "You're right..." he said when his stomach growled loudly as a signal of hunger and just in cue, Gohan's stomach imitated "BUT first, lets get something to eat." said Diego as they both made their way to the room.

AN: Hey guys, I'm back! This chapter is rather short just like the previous one but there is reason behind it. I have recently moved out to another place and there obviously, there was no internet as I moved out all by my own. I will keep writing the chapters but I have to keep them short since the only time I have free is during the night, work is putting a toll on me and I will soon start a new job where I will hardly have anytime to spare. But fear not! I will keep the chapters coming just at a slower rate than I usually do them! Please review as I am very self-conscious about this story. See ya next Chapter!
