FriTik: And welcome back to yet another chapter!
Computer: Aren't you supposed to be writing something else?
FriTik: Yes, but I've ignored this story for too long a time and I want to catch up to the point I left it off at.
Computer: You have one story you haven't updated in weeks (which has a much larger following than this one) as well as another story you've been writing for the past three weeks and haven't even finished the first chapter and you're approaching the deadline you set for finishing said first chapter. It's not even that freaking long.
FriTik: STOP USING LOGIC I DO WHAT I WANT.
Sorry about that and yes I do have other stories I need to work on but this one screams for my attention!
Computer: No it doesn't!
FriTik: Just go to hell you insufferable system.
About a month had passed since Gohan and Gojie had woken up on the ground in completely new uniforms and with their own weapons.
After figuring out how to use their new weapons they had started putting them to good use hunting.
Today we find the siblings on the metaphorical edge of a new stage of their wilderness survival.
Also hanging off the literal edge of a cliff.
"Think he'll see us?" Gojie asked Gohan hanging off a branch with her tail.
"I dunno I can't tell if he's up there." Gohan said hanging off a different branch with his hands. He looked up toward the nearby top.
"WHERE'D THOSE DUMB PIPSQUEAKS GO?" A very loud gravelly voice rumbled.
"He's still up there." Gohan said looking straight again eyes wide.
Said very loud gravelly voice belonged to a large Rhino man wearing samurai armor. He glanced around glaring over the cliff edge but not considering looking over the edge.
"GAR I'LL FIND THEM LITTLE TWERPS AND THEN THEY'LL BE A TASTY SNACK!" He lumbered off away from the cliff.
After the footsteps faded away Gohan and Gojie climbed back up and stared after the large footprints leading away.
"Hey Gohan?" Gojie eventually asked her brother.
"Yeah Gojie?" He asked blinking at her.
She looked down for a second before glaring her brother in the eye. "I think we should do some training ourselves."
"What?" Gohan blinked in surprise, "Why?"
"Well think about it" she tapped her foot and put her hands on her hips and leaned forward. "That Mr. Piccolo wants to train us when he comes back anyway. Why don't we train ourselves so we won't have to run from that big oaf next time he shows up. Also we can show Mr. Piccolo what we can do."
Gohan looked down and thought about it before gaining a determined look and bringing up his fist. "Yeah!"
He looked after the footprints again. "But we should probably go the opposite direction of that guy."
Gojie looked over too. "Yeah we probably should."
And with that the two siblings jogged away.
A few days later the two had fallen into a routine. They would get up and go get a breakfast of some sort usually fruits or berries. Next they would do some running through the woods to get warmed up. After that they would spar for a little bit.
Their technique was far from perfect but they learned how to kick, punch and very importantly dodge their opponents.
It was one such day as this that while Gojie was running through the forest warming up she fell down a hole of some sort.
At the bottom was a dark cavern with light coming from above. Gojie figured that she would just look around a few minutes before going back up.
Then she found the flower.
But this was no ordinary flower oh no. It had a smiling face.
"Howdy!" It winked and stuck it's tongue out at her, "My name's Flowey th-"
"AHHH TALKING FLOWER" She shrieked and ran to the side of the wall where the hole was and scrambled out of there as fast as she could.
Gohan having heard his sister yell came running over from his own laps. "Gojie what's up? What happened."
Gojie was bent over panting having used a lot of energy to get away as fast as she could. She tried to regain some composure and straightened up, "Oh nothing just a… umm… weird plant."
Gohan blinked in confusion but shrugged. "Okay then come on let's go."
And with that the two jogged off.
That night the two sat around their makeshift camp in a little cave.
There boots, spear and sword were over on the wall in the back and they were leaning against a rock with their bare feet facing toward the fire.
Gohan sighed. "Gojie when this is over do you think things will go back to normal?"
Gojie brought her knees up to her chin and dragged her finger through the dirt. "Honestly? I don't know Gohan I really don't but I hope they do." She looked up the cave roof. "I really do."
Gojie woke up with a start.
The fire was nothing but a few cinders now and Gohan was asleep right next to her.
She frowned deep in thought. She couldn't really remember what the dream was about only that it had a wrongness about it. Like a bad omen. For the saiyans? She wondered.
But as she watched the burning cinders she wasn't so sure. But she was sure for one thing.
Things wouldn't be normal for a very long time.
If ever.
Gokan had no idea how long they had been on snake way for. He lost count after he counted to ten.
It had got boring pretty fast.
Occasionally he had managed to convince his father to go faster and get a bit ahead and rest for a little bit so he could get a workout catching up. But for the most part he just stayed on his father's shoulders.
Then they finally saw it. The end of the road. Literally.
Snakeway just ended in a snake tail.
"Huh but I don't see anything…" Goku trailed off looking around.
"There!" Gokan saw it and pointed up in the air at the tiny planetoid he had spotted.
And with that Goku leaped into the air towards the tiny planet floating in the sky.
But as they neared the planet they were pulled down extremely fast slamming into the ground Gokan being a few feet away from Goku.
Gokan struggled as hard as he could but he just couldn't get himself off the ground. He was able to turn his head a bit and saw his father following a monkey around…
Well things just got weird.
Then he saw the blue guy.
He wasn't that tall but he was taller than himself. He had a weird looking hat with two antennae sticking out of it. He also had on round sunglasses and was wearing a weird outfit with a symbol on it.
After a brief conversation with Goku the blue man pointed his hand a Gokan and he felt a warmth inside his chest.
Suddenly it didn't hurt so much. He pushed himself to his feet still with some difficulty.
He blinked at the blue man. He was pretty pudgy too now that he had a better look.
"There we go can't have you lying around now." The blue guy said in a nasally voice before turning around and snickering into his hands.
"What did you do?" Gokan asked looking at his hands in confusion.
"Oh just gave you a bit of energy you should be able to move around now. But it won't be permanent so I suggest you work on that a bit." The blue man explained to him.
The monkey Gokan had seen his father following and copying now stood off to the side bouncing up and down a bit while making monkey noises.
Goku now explained to King Kai, as it turned out the blue man was, why he was here and asked him to train him. Pretty please!
"Very well" King Kai said his glasses flashing. Goku was about to leap for joy until the Kai said "I will train you IF you can tell a joke that makes me laugh."
"You're joking" Gokan's father said staring at King Kai blankly.
"No but you better get to that if you want me to train you!" The Kai looked at Gokan again. "Also if I'm training you why's he here?"
Goku blinked then responded "Well he's my son and he kinda died too so... heh…" Goku rubbed the back of his neck.
"Oh…." King Kai said "Well then let's avoid that topic. Now you must make me laugh if you want me to train you so go on!"
Gokan's father crossed his arms and looked like he was thinking really hard. Seeing this Gokan decided to look around a bit. He started walking towards the little house.
He peaked inside but didn't see much just a living room really with some doors to other parts nothing all that interesting.
He came back outside in time to hear his father yell something about a chicken. Whatever that was about. He looked around the little planet. There were a few trees that he could see as well as a road that seemed to loop around the planet and a shiny car sitting on said road.
He heard more shouting from where his father and King Kai was and looked over to see the Kai pounding on the ground laughing. He smiled to himself Looks like dad can tell a funny joke.
"So you have to train me now! Right King Kai?" Goku asked the laughing blue man.
The Kai pulled himself back up snickering a bit before calming down. "Alright then I'll train you but first you have to get used to the planet's gravity. So how about this? To actually start training with me you first have to catch Bubbles."
Goku looked at the monkey. "Really? But he's just a monkey!"
King Kai snicked "Oh but he's quick! But if you're so sure of yourself go ahead and grab him!"
Gokan looked on as his father leapt for the monkey only for Bubbles to dodge and scurry away as fast as his little legs could carry him.
"Oh man!" Goku said staring after the monkey before following in hot pursuit.
Gokan watched as both his father and the monkey raced around the little planet. He looked at the Kai. "Sooo what do I do while we're here?"
King Kai put a hand to his chin and thought for a second. "Well for starters you might want to jog around a bit and get used to the planet's gravity. That'll be helpful. Then maybe I can practice my jokes on you." He grinned his eyes flashing.
Gokan turned and watch Bubbles to evade his father's grab yet again and sighed. This was gonna be awhile.
So with that thought he jogged off along the side of the road circling the tiny planet.
Back on earth Piccolo had returned to where he left Gohan and Gojie.
He faced down the two four year olds who were noticeably more courageous than the last time he had seen them.
Both of their outfits had sustained some wear and tear damage over the six months. Their hair had grown out as well. Gohan's reached farther down his back and Gojie's reached her legs.
"So then what is your mission?" Piccolo asked firmly.
"To defeat the saiyans." the sibling pair said sounding determined.
Piccolo smirked. "Good let's begin."
FriTik: I was really tempted to include the scene from the original posting with the General. The guy is going to be a major antagonist in future arcs but I figured it was pointless to include him at this point in time. And if you don't remember that or you didn't read it. Disregard that entirely.
Computer: Sure ignore one of your characters, not like you've done that before to a dashing lord of technology.
FriTik: *Glares menacingly*
Anyway ignoring the asshole of an interface-
Computer: I can still hear you!
IGNORING HIM, let's move on to reviews!
Also before I do multiple people mentioned that in the manga Gohan was nine not eleven I realize. But in the anime he was eleven. I'll figure out what age I use when I get there.
Cruzerblade: Ikr? Saiyans look incredibly human like. Apart from the spiky hair the only thing that set them apart were the tails. That's why I decided to keep them. Also yeah none of them are really coming out of things without mentality things.
Crystalzap: Yeah that kid went through some serious shit. Yet no one seems to understand that will mess up a child. Makes me think maybe Chichi had it right. Although she might've gone about ti the wrong way.
Guest: Honestly the fact you can read my story and post a review on it shows wonders for your capabilities. Learning a second language is no walk in the park. And I'm glad you like the story.
Boggie445: Here is more of it to see!
That's all this time folks! See ya around!
