Author's Note: Sorry for the wait. I was meaning to get back to this, but somehow it kept being pushed back. Further and further . . . I partially blame it on the fact that Blast From the Past was stuck in my head and there was simply no getting rid of it for a little while. Which is why it got two updates last month.
Disclaimer: I do not own Dragonball Z. At all. I only own my fond childhood memories of it and some of the movies on DVD.
Fight 30
Saiya-what?
Gohan was still standing in the middle of the living room when his little brother pulled on his cape. He looked down and saw the unsure look on Goten's face. He sighed but then smiled. "Hey Goten. It'll be a bit before dinner I think. Let's go out for a while. You can tell me ideas for my superhero name!"
When Goten sent a smile of his own at him he breathed a sigh of relief. He wasn't sure what his brother thought about their father. The young half-saiyan had never met Goku and had really only ever heard stories. Always told how much he looks like his dead parent. It wouldn't be surprising if Goten, in a couple of years, got tired of hearing such things. Of always being compared to Goku.
The seven year old jumped up and down in excitement, "Yeah! I've got some good ones too!"
"I'll race you to the lake." With a laugh Gohan ran out the door without another word. Knowing he didn't need to wait on his brother. He'd catch up. Of course it helps that he was letting Goten do so. Not that he would let him win so easily. He dashed between the trees before it opened out the clearing by the water.
"No fair! You cheated!"
Gohan chuckled and ruffled his little brother's hair. He replied playfully, "You still wouldn't have beaten me squirt."
Goten pouted and mumbled, "I was going to give you super cool name, but not now! Maybe Super Poopyhead. Or Sir Cheatsalot."
He muffled more chuckling with his hand to not make his brother feel worse. "I don't think those would really inspire confidence from the people." Kneeling down he took his hand away and smiled, "Tell you what. You can suggest some names and then we'll race again. This time we'll start at the same time."
The small half-saiyan's face lit up, "Really!" He tilted his head up and his face scrunched together as he thought of something. "How about Saiyaman?"
Gohan's eyebrows furrowed, "Saiyaman?"
"Yeah! We're half saiyan and half human. So . . . Saiyaman!"
