Alrighty, here is the second one. I hope you liked the first one, but that was just the intro, this one does not include much, it just fortified the base to get him started, the real later starts next chapter, this is just warm water. Goku starts from scratch though he shouldn't be able to destroy mountains till chp 4, ;)
The space-pod our young hero arrives in should be a good example of the technology these older humans possessed, the pod was made of an alloy of gold-platinum-steel and about 15 other metallic elements that protect against all signs of wear and from almost any type of damage space could throw at it. However what shall concern us is not the absolutely fascinating perfection of our little starship and its razor tuned functions and advanced control mechanism, no it was its content. Goku was bawling at top volume inside, after all he had been denied any food or water for 14 hours. Covering a distance of 20,000 light-years in such a short amount of time is remarkable; the pods were able to travel at sub-light speed, approximately 175 million times faster than light but then again, technology. Goku however did not care; the only thing he cared about was his next meal. Of course as we all know, Goku has powerful lungs.
The mountainous areas are mostly deserted at this time however few can resist roaming the surreal fields at this seemingly divine time of twilight. Fortune shines down on our friend as a great martial art master by the name of shang-zi was meditating in these parts when his ear, that age had failed to dull, picked up the shrill wails of a hungry child. Being a benevolent man Shang's conscious forced him to act. He walked to the source of the sound and found a young child lying amidst the hedges of a Siwalik (young mountain).
Shang habitually took some provisions with him wherever he went he decided that one trip could be cut short and fed the child best as he could before wrapping him in his shawl and carrying him home. Shang had lost his wife and son a long time ago from a driving accident in these very mountains. He chose to come here not because of the beauty of the surreal fields at night but so he could come to terms with his grief and accept that no matter how skilled he was in the art of battle he must be humble, for he was a religious man. Shang had a void in his heart where his family used to reside, he could not bring himself to give up the child and cared for him till the child was able, Shang had immediately noticed that the child was unusual, he ate more than average, slept more than average, worked more than average and grew faster than average, he was smarter, faster, and stronger than any child the master had ever seen, and he never seemed to get sick. The master therefore decided not to let this go to waste and started training the boy. Goku was two and a half when he started his training in the martial arts.
It started out simple; Shang started testing Goku's limits. Goku failed this test; he had no limits, or at least none that Shang could find, so he set a test, he set Goku to a track at the base of the mountains, he told him to run around it at a certain pace as it was fairly simple, when Goku got back he wasn't even sweating. So Shang told him to keep running until he couldn't run anymore, he returned in a couple hours, Goku was still jogging. He told Goku to sprint at top speed, Goku set the world record. Now Shang knew that there was something wrong, that this boy was not human, he had taken the pod to be a strange casket but he knew that he had to get the child returned to whoever had conceived it but he had no idea how, Shang decided with a heavy heart that the best thing to do was abandon the child, for better or for worse, who knew what this creature with inhumane capabilities could do? what it would grow up to be? Shang decided he did not want to find out.
So Shang-zi the great martial artist left a two year old in the woods to fend for himself, because he was too strong. However this was not as bad as it sounds, Goku had been left with some provisions, and training no matter incomplete, Goku was a warrior at heart, he knew how to kill. He devoured the provisions quickly and set out in the most primal quest of all, water and food. He was an intelligent being but still, he had no proper education, he ran through the jungle looking for food, until food found him in the form of a predator. A cheetah searching to feed its children found itself in Goku's way neither recognized the other posed a threat till the cheetah leaped; he had killed human before, but never one who could break his rib in a single swipe. The cheetah was brushed aside by the toddler who leaped up and punched the life out of the poor animal before feasting from its flesh its flesh in an exceedingly wild manner. This is actually not as cringe-worthy as you would like to believe, in fact, it is simply the law of the jungle, and they were in a jungle after all weren't they?
Goku had an upbringing none of the old ones had ever had, he grew up fending for himself, knowing that every wound made him body stronger, every kill made his muscles harder, he was a scourge that no creature could stand up to, therefore it is no surprise that when Goku had achieved the body a teenager and the intellect of a man he stepped out of his domain and moved further, and so began his training to become the greatest warrior the universe ever had the honor to behold.
All right, starting next chapter, no more sentimental stuff, pure hard training. I hope you enjoyed it, it took a lot of time and effort to write and the plot was a bit hard to develop although, you should trust me it only gets better, if you enjoyed my work then be sure to leave a review and tell me what you thought J.
