Chapter 24

He's Back?

"KAISER!" Brila yelled with tears rolled down her eyes as she launched herself at the one who meant everything to her.

She latched onto him like her life depended on it. She started sobbing as she dug her face into his chest. Everyone was too shocked to do or say anything.

Gohan slowly approached his best friend as he met his eyes. Something was different. His eyes were different. His look had changed; it was…emotionless. "K-Kaiser, is that r-really y-you?" He said as he got a little closer.

Kaiser looked at him with a blank expression for a few brief seconds. Even Brila got curious and looked up to him while still having that iron grip on him.

Kaiser looked back at Brila and smiled as he put his hand on her head. "Yeah. It's me Gohan." He said as he looked back at the demi Saiyan. "It's good to be…back." He said with the faintest smirk that no one was able to pick up. "Come on guys." He said as he looked at the shocked crowd. "Aren't you guys happy that I'm back?" He said as he put one arm around Brila and the other around Gohan. Just then his eyes fell on 18. His smiled turned into a quizzical expression. "What is she doing here? I thought she was our enemy." He said as he vanished from sight. Everyone turned their heads to locate the young Saiyan.

"Well Android." He whispered coldly in her ear. "Time to die." He said as he moved his fist forward but before contact could be made, Vegeta grabbed his wrist to prevent his son from boring a hole through the beautiful Android's abdomen.

Kaiser looked at his father with distasteful eyes. "Don't spill blood on your first day back and besides…" He glanced over to Krillen to give him a look that said, 'Get her away from here'. The bald monk didn't need to be told twice as he quickly dragged his girlfriend away from the young Saiyan. He looked back at his son who was still glaring at him. "She's on our side now. She's a comrade." He grunted as he let go of his arm. He then continued to put his hand on his son's head. "It's good to have you back." He said with a faint smile.

Kaiser looked around his father to see Krillen whispering something to 18. "Well well baldy. It seems as if you've done nicely." Kaiser said with a smirk.

"Well err…thanks I guess." Krillen said hesitantly.

"Come one Kaisy!" Brila said as she grabbed his hand. "Let's go inside. There are people in there that'll be more than happy to see you." She said as she dragged him inside the household. He followed her hesitantly but he followed her nonetheless. The two lovebirds were followed in by the rest of the Z Fighters except for Piccolo and Vegeta. As the door shut in front of them, Vegeta turned to the Namekian and proceeded to ask him a few questions.

"Alright Namek. Talk." He said knowing that the Namekian was silent for a reason.

"There's something wrong with your son." He said as he unfolded his arms.

"What's wrong with him?" Vegeta grunted.

"Didn't you see? If I know him correctly, he would have hugged the life out of the girl and maybe even Gohan." He said as he silenced the prince. "Also, he would never have attacked 18 just like that. He would've asked more questions or something like that and finally, he would never glare at you for stopping him for the right reason."

Vegeta remained silent for a couple of seconds when he spoke again. "What are you implying?" He grunted.

"I say that spending so much time in the otherworld might've changed his behavior." He continued.

"How exactly?"

"I am not too sure but I suggest that you-"

"I don't need parenting advice from you Namek." He hissed.

"Sure you don't." Piccolo said with a smirk that only managed to piss the prince off even more. "Just make sure you're always around when he…" He paused as he thought carefully about the next few words. "…starts to act up." He concluded.

Vegeta thought carefully about his words. He couldn't explain his son's behavior either. "Maybe it's just that he hasn't been with us for too long". He thought to himself as he closed his eyes. He reopened them after figuring out a plan. "I'll try to figure him out with my long-awaited sparring session with the boy."

"Very well, let's go back inside. Gohan would be upset with me if I left." He said as he opened the door of the Son household. He walked in with Vegeta close behind.

Inside everyone had surrounded Kaiser asking him questions about the otherworld and whatnot. Bulma had squeezed the life out of a cranky Kaiser. Trunks and Goten watched everything from a distance as they decided not to get close to the young Saiyan. Bulma noticed how far Trunks and Goten were from the crowd and thus decided to call them over.

"You got your wish Goten." She said as she wiped the tears of her cheeks. "Why don't you come and say hi? You too Trunks. Kaka is back." She said as she gave her son another hug. Trunks and Goten looked at each other and nodded. They slowly approached Kaiser as they studied his eyes. There was nothing there, they were blank. Just before they could make their next step, Kaiser appeared in front of them and swooped them off their feet and up in his arms. They were beyond scared now because they weren't used to anyone else lifting them up like that other than Brila and Gohan.

"Hey Trunks, you sure have grown up haven't you?" He said as he nudged his forehead with his nose. "And you must be the birthday boy." He said as he gave the Goku lookalike an observational look. He loosened his grip allowing the two Saiyans to jump out of his arms. He watched them with a scowl as they ran behind their mothers for safety.

"They're weak. Their power level is pathetically low." He said coldly.

"Don't be so harsh on them K." Gohan said as he patted his friend on his back. "We were just like them when we were their age."

"Hn." He said as he folded his arms. Brila walked up to him and slid her arm left hand through his folded arms and clung onto him tightly. She then rested her head on his arm and closed her eyes. Kaiser looked down at her with the corner of his eyes and smirked.

"Aw, isn't that cute." Bulma said making everyone look at the young Saiyan couple's direction. Brila blushed brightly but Kaiser did not show any emotion.

"Cut the crap woman." Vegeta grunted earning a glare from his wife. "So." He paused as he glanced over to his older son. "I hope you've kept up your training." He said with a smirk.

"I've trained enough to make you look like a little girl." He said making everyone's jaw drop. He actually had the guts to say that to the crankiest person in the universe.

Vegeta growled at his son's choice of words. "A smartass eh? Let's see how well you do in the gravity room with me."

"Why wait for the gravity room? I can kick your ass here and now." He said with a smirk.

"How DARE you?" Vegeta said as he launched at his son. Kaiser fell into a stance as he unfolded his arms and pushed Brila back but before any of them could make any contact with the other, Gohan appeared between them with his arms stretched out, one arm facing his best friend and the other facing his best friend's father.

"Today is my little brother's birthday. None of you will do anything to ruin it." He said coldly. He then turned to Kaiser. "What is wrong with you? You weren't like this." He said as he shot him a glare. Vegeta listened carefully as he could find something out about his son.

Kaiser glared back at Gohan for a few second and then what he did next shocked everyone. He put both his hands on his face and fell on his knees. He put his hands on the floor as he punched the floor creating a small crack. He looked up at everyone with bloodshot eyes.

"E-Everyone…I am so sorry." He said as tears started rolling down his face. Everyone looked at the young Saiyan with a confused expression and wondered what they should do. "I've been separated from you guys for so long that I forgot emotions such as love and care." He said as he slowly got to his feet. He glanced over to his father with tear filled eyes. "I am so sorry dad. It's just that, me coming to Earth without permission was a crime in the otherworld so I had to spend most of my time in H.F.I.L." He said as he earned several gasps. "I was put in the same pit as Cell. He killed me so many times that I lost count." He said as he clenched his fists. "I had to give up my humanity to gain the power needed to destroy Cell. I was finally stronger than him but a hefty price." He paused as he looked down. "I can longer transform into a Super Saiyan. I had to give up my Saiyan genes to absorb negative energy."

"WHAT?" Vegeta yelled in disbelief.

"I am so sorry father…" He said weakly.

"H-How could they do something l-like that?" Brila said in disbelief. "You helped Gohan save the Earth and that's the thanks you get?" She snapped.

"H-How could they do this to you?" This time it was Gohan who snapped.

"It was dreadful Gohan." He said as he glanced over to his best friend. "I need you two more than ever now. Please come here." He said as he invited them for a hug. Brila and Gohan did not need to be told twice. They ran into his open arms and gave him comforting words.

"You won't be alone anymore Kaisy. I'll always be there for you. I love you." Brila said as she kissed him on his cheek.

"She's right Kaiser. We're your friends. All of us." He said as he glanced over to the smiling crowd.

"Thanks you two. This means a lot to me." He said as he let them go. He looked over Gohan's shoulder to see two young demi Saiyans. He slowly walked up to them with a smile. This time the two demi Saiyans were still kind of hesitant but they actually wanted him to come over.

"I am so sorry if I scared you two earlier on but believe me, I mean you no harm. You two mean a lot to me." He said as he got on knee. "You too Goten." He said as he ruffled his hand through the Goku lookalike's hair. "What do you two say? Will you give me another chance?" He said as he opened his arms. This time the two demi Saiyans jumped into Kaiser's arms. "There there. It's alright." He said as he started to comfort them. "I am sorry I left you Trunks but I promise, I am never gonna leave you or anyone else ever again." He said as he stood up with the two demi Saiyans who smiled back at him.

"Wow. Looks like I made quite the impression on your brother Gohan." He chuckled.

"I am glad you did. We told him a lot of things about you." Gohan replied.

"I hope you told them all the bad things." He said coldly.

"Bad things?" Gohan asked with a quizzical expression.

"I meant good things." He said with a smile.

"You need to work on your smile more Kaisy. It's not like how it used to be." Bulma said as she frowned.

"Sorry mom. I'll get the hang of it sooner or later." He said as he felt someone looking at him. He scanned the room for the pair of eyes that were glaring at him. There were many eyes that were looking at him but there was one that was glaring at him or studying him carefully. "It's not Vegeta. It's not Gohan…It's…Piccolo." He thought to himself as he shot daggers at Piccolo who was slightly startled with the sudden eye contact. Kaiser gave him a smirk that only Piccolo could see.

"Why is he looking at me like that? Does he know what I am thinking? Why is it so difficult for me to buy into his story?" He thought to himself as a bead of sweat ran down his forehead.

"Is there something wrong Piccolo?" Gohan asked snapping the Namekian back to reality. Piccolo jumped slightly that Gohan failed to catch making him oblivious of his mentor's distress.

"No. It's nothing. I have to go back to the lookout." He said as he walked out of the house before any could stop him.

"What's wrong with him?" Kaiser asked.

"I am not sure." Gohan said as he rubbed his chin. "Oh well. I guess it's time to eat? Mom, is dinner ready yet?" Gohan said as he glanced over to his mother.

"Y-Yes dear it's ready." The son mother replied as she too escaped her trance. She was too absorbed into poor Kaiser's story. Kaiser put both the demi Saiyans down as he approached his father.

"Dad…" He paused as he gained the shocked Saiyan's attention. "You haven't said anything about me losing my Saiyan powers." He asked nervously.

Vegeta was at loss for words. He didn't know what to say. Should he comfort his son or yell at him for giving up his Saiyan heritage for negative energy? But then again, what choice did he have? It was either kill or be killed. "Just don't stop training." He grunted as he walked over to the dinner table. Kaiser smiled at Brila and Gohan who were listening very closely.

"Veggie isn't all that bad K." Gohan said as he put his arm on Kaiser's shoulder.

"I guess not." Kaiser chuckled.

"You know if he hears you, he'll punch you both." Brila chuckled.

2 hours later…

The Saiyans had finished their feast and most of the guests had already left. The only guests left were the Briefs family. Krillen and 18 left not too long ago but they left after a lengthy apology from Kaiser which the couple accepted mostly out of fear.

Kaiser sat on the couch with Brila resting her head on his shoulder. He sat silently not making any attempts to make eye contact or conversations with anyone. Gohan thought that it would be best to leave him alone today. Vegeta sat opposite the three young Saiyans as he carefully watched his son's movements. The two demi Saiyan sat on the floor as they played with the gifts Goten received for his birthday. Bulma and Chi Chi were in the kitchen catching up and whatnot.

Brila did not like the silence and decided to start a conversation. It wasn't the best topic but she went ahead anyway. "Hey Kaisy." She said as she nudged his shoulder with her nose.

"Hm?" He replied without making any eye contact.

"You remember that guy at the Cell Games? Hercule Satan?"

"Is that the best topic to talk about Bri?" Gohan asked.

"He's gonna find out some time." She replied.

"Find out what?" He said as he finally made eye contact with Brila.

"Well… he kinda took our credit for beating Cell." Gohan said uneasily. Kaiser looked at him emotionlessly. He closed his eyes and sighed.

"How very human like of him. Not that it matters. I don't need popularity." He said as he opened his eyes. "The world will know my name soon." He continued silently.

"What do you mean by that, brat?" This time it was Vegeta who questioned Kaiser.

"Oh uh what I meant was that I'll kick his butt and become famous for it." He chuckled making all the Saiyans chuckle but Vegeta wasn't fooled. There was something else but he didn't know what.

Just then, Bulma and Chi Chi came out of the kitchen. "It's time to go guys." She said as she earned a groan from Trunks and Goten.

"Do we have to mommy?" Trunks said in his baby like voice.

"Yeah! Do we have to? It's not even that late." Kaiser complained.

"It is 2 AM Kaiser." Gohan said as he narrowed his eyes.

"Oh. I guess I lost track of time." Kaiser said with a smile. "Well let's get going then." He said as he jumped up from the sofa.

Everyone stepped out of the door and Bulma threw a capsule which materialized into a yellow jet in front of them.

"Mom, what are you doing that for? I can teleport us home remember?" Kaiser said with a smile.

"Oh right. I completely forgot." She chuckled.

"Alright everyone. Grab on." He said as he put two fingers on his forehead. "See ya guys around." He said as he waved the Son family goodbye. "I might come around tomorrow G."

"I look forward to it." Gohan replied with a smile.

As everyone grabbed on, Kaiser made preparations to leave but a few seconds past in they still didn't leave. "Uh Kaiser? Why haven't we left yet?" Bulma asked as she stepped forward.

"I-I can't feel grandpa's and grandma's energy. Did they say they were going out anywhere today?" Kaiser asked nervously.

"Oh yeah!" Bulma exclaimed as she slapped her forehead. "They had to go for a meeting. They must've left a while after we did but they should've been back by now though." She said as she thought about where her parents could be.

"Maybe they're at some hotel. It is quite late after all." Brila explained.

"Well that does make sense. Anyway, Kaisy, have us teleport in my lab. You can teleport us where we have all the endangered species." Bulma instructed. Kaiser merely nodded and within an instant they teleported away.

The Son family watched the vacant spot where the Briefs family once stood. A smiled appeared on their face as they were satisfied with the thought that Kaiser had returned.

At Capsule Corp…

The Briefs family had teleported in the wildlife part of Capsule Corp. where they were greeted by a few hungry dinosaurs but a glare from Vegeta sent them running.

Bulma provided her son with some clothes she had bought over the two years just in case he came back. Kaiser took them with a smile and made his way to his room. Before he could enter his room, he felt someone walking down the corridor. He looked to his right to see Vegeta walking towards him.

"We'll train tomorrow." He ordered.

"Of course but I need to rest first. A lot happened since I have returned and I need some time to rest but we will train tomorrow." Kaiser explained. Vegeta merely nodded and retreated to his room.

Kaiser was about to enter his room but again he felt someone walking down the corridor. This time he looked to his left to see Brila approaching him.

"Go to sleep Brila. It's late." He stated.

"I know but there's something I have to tell you." She said as her cheeks flared up red.

"What is it?"

"It's cold." She said as she made eye contact with him. Kaiser looked at her for a few seconds and then smirked.

"Make sure you dress up warm and cover yourself with an extra blanket or two." He said as he walked into his room and shut the door behind him.

She stood outside of his room for two whole minutes trying to comprehend the situation. He never said no to this. She concluded that there must be a lot going on in his mind and with that thought, she walked back to her room with a heavy heart.

Inside his room, Kaiser lay there in his bed as he played with the black fang that hung down from his chain that his mother gave him. Kaiser looked out of the window as he studied the crescent shaped moon. His lips curled into a smirk as he closed his eyes. "Soon…" He mumbled to himself as he fell asleep.

The next day…

Vegeta woke up at 6 AM for his daily sparring session with Brila. He wanted to train with Kaiser but he decided to give him the rest he needed. He made his way to Brila's room only to find her standing outside of his room waiting for him.

"Good morning Vegeta." She greeted politely.

"What's with the fake smile?" He asked as he deciphered her fake smile. She frowned and looked down on the shiny blue tiles.

"Well…I…umm…" She said as she started blushing.

"He didn't let you sleep in his room?" He asked bluntly.

"W-W-What? I-I didn't say t-that."

"But he didn't let you did he?"

"N-No…" She gave up.

"Give the brat some time. He just needs to get used to us…again." He said as he started making his way to the gravity room. Brila merely sighed as she followed Vegeta to the gravity room.

Vegeta stopped in front of the door and pressed a few buttons on the dial. The door opened slowly and what spiked the two Saiyan's curiosity was that the gravity had already been intensified to 200 times Earth's gravity. They walked up to the gravity control panel and tried to investigate.

"Were you in here yesterday, brat?" Vegeta grunted as he looked back at her. He was surprised to see that she was sniffing.

"N-No but what's that smell?" She asked as she covered her nose. Vegeta was too absorbed in why the gravity was already activated that he totally ignored the fact that it smelt like something was dying in here.

Brila walked around the pillar that had all the controls on it and when she reached the other side, she let out an agonizing shriek as she fell on her knees with her hands covering her mouth. Vegeta literally jumped to her side and what he saw sickened him. He too was left wide eyed at this grueling sight.

There lay the severed, scrambled, crushed and bloodied bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Briefs and next to them was a message in written from their own blood and it was meant for them and Vegeta knew this meant trouble. The message read. "THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING".

"W-Who could've done this?" Brila whimpered as she read the message. "There's no trace of energy either."

"I am not sure but we must get rid of their bodies before the woman gets here. I'll break the news to her and you go wake up the brat." He said as he shot a ki blast at the two corpses incinerating them. Brila jumped at the sight and proceeded to question him.

"What did you do that for? We could've buried them!" She protested.

"I don't want the woman to look at them like this and besides we have the Dragon Balls." He said calmly as they watched the corpses reduce to ashes. "Go get that piece of scrap metal so you can gather the Dragon Balls but first wake him up and tell him everything." He said as he walked out of the gravity room. "And make it quick."

Brila merely nodded and ran to Kaiser's room as fast as she could without breaking anything and within a couple of seconds she reached his room. She thought that it was not necessary to knock and barged in to find him looking out of the window.

"Can't you knock?" He asked with an annoyed tone as he looked into her eyes to see her bloodshot eyes. "What's wrong?" He said as he raised an eyebrow.

She looked back into his eyes as she broke the news to him. She told him about his grandparent's bodies and what had happened to them. She also told him about the message. After all the explaining was done she walked up to him and gave him a comforting hug.

"We have to go get the Dragon Balls to wish them back Kaisy." She said as she let go of him. She was shocked to see his emotionless face. He turned around as he resumed his gaze outside of the window.

"Go get the dragon radar. With the first wish we can bring them back and with the second we can ask the dragon for the identity of the murderer so I can kill him or her myself." He said rather hatefully. Brila didn't say anything, she just turned around and walked towards the door but before she could walk out Kaiser grabbed her hand pulled her close into a hug. She was too shocked to react. One minute he was emotionless and now he wanted a hug?

"I have forgotten emotions Bri. Please don't think ill of me." He said in a cold tone. She patted his back understandingly and smiled at him.

"It's okay. You'll get better soon." She said as she kissed him on his cheek. She was hoping to get one back but the kiss never came. She sighed and stepped away from him. "Get ready. Your mother will be more than devastated. She'll need you." She said as she walked out of the door.

Brila walked towards Bulma's workspace where she kept the dragon radar. On her way there, she passed Bulma and Vegeta's room. She could hear the sounds of sobbing inside of their room. She stopped momentarily as she closed her eyes. She reopened them and ran towards Bulma's workspace.

Upon reaching there, she immediately began her search. She moved the messy paper work and threw some prototypes across the room as she desperately tried to find the dragon radar. She looked for five minutes and she couldn't find it. She wondered if she should ask Bulma but she was not in the proper state of mind to answer her questions. Vegeta was busy with Bulma as he tried to comfort her. Kaiser just came back home yesterday so he wouldn't know, the only other person left was Trunks but he was almost 3 so how would he know? She didn't even know how to approach him.

She just had to ask Vegeta so she ran out of the lab and made her way to Vegeta's room only to find him outside of his room with his back leaning on the wall. He looked at her and saw her hands empty. "Why didn't you get that damn radar?" He hissed.

"I am sorry Vegeta. I couldn't find it. It's not there." She replied.

"Useless." He mumbled under his breath. "I'll go find it myself. Have you woken up the brat yet?" He demanded.

"He was already awake. He's getting ready. I'll go check on him." She said as she turned around to run to his room.

"Wait." Vegeta halted her as he grabbed her shoulder.

"What is it?"She asked as she turned around.

"How did he take it?" He asked silently.

"H-He hardly showed any emotion. I-It's like he wasn't even sad but when I was about to leave he hugged me and said that he had just forgotten how to feel." Brila said as she remembered her conversation with Kaiser.

"I see." He paused as he thought carefully about the lack of emotion his son was showing. "Go check on him.

She nodded at him and ran towards Kaiser's room. She reached his room shortly and this time she decided to knock this time.

"Come in." His voice reached her ears and with that, she opened the door to find him standing in his usual fighting gi. Saiyan gloves and boots with a black gi and a black undershirt with a white sash. It was just like hers but in opposite colors. He looked at her with a rare smile, well, it was rare for him now.

"Did you get the radar?" He asked as he stepped out the door with Brila close behind him.

"No. I couldn't find it. Vegeta has gone himself to find it." She replied.

"I see. Where is Trunks?" He said as he walked into the launch.

"He's still sleeping." She replied as she followed him inside.

"Good. I wouldn't want him to see all this." He said as he opened the fridge. Just then Vegeta stepped into the kitchen with a broken Dragon Radar in his hands and he wasn't too happy. "Y-You broke it?" Kaiser asked in disbelief.

"NO!" He snapped. "I found it broken in the trash can. The one who killed the woman's parents must've known about the Dragon Balls too but what did he get out of this?" Vegeta growled as he crushed the remains of the Dragon Radar.

"That doesn't matter now. We have to be alert now. This new enemy is no joke. He must've been in there when he turned the gravity up to 200 which means he's powerful. We can have mom make a new one once she's able to do so." He said as he looked at his father. "Did any of you check the security cameras? They might have some leads."

Brila and Vegeta looked at each other wondering why either of them didn't check the cameras before.

"That didn't occur to us." Brila said as she bowed her head in shame.

"That's okay. We know now. You go do that and I'll go talk to mom." Kaiser said as he began moving towards his mom's room but his movement came to a halt when the phone rang.

Brila noticed the other two Saiyans not move so she decided to pick up the phone.

"Hello?...GOHAN! We're in trouble…wait slow down…I can barely hear you…WHAT?...oh no…H-Hello? Gohan? Gohan say something! Shit!" She cursed.

"Brila! What happened?" Kaiser exclaimed. "Is Gohan okay?"

"H-He's okay but…"

"BUT WHAT?" Vegeta snapped making her jump.

"We're under attack…" She whispered.

A.N: Well this is it for this chapter. I know it's shorter than the previous two but it needs to be like this. Not much action in this chapter but oh well. This chapter might confuse you guys but it'll all make sense in the next to chapter so hang tight. I know I know no power levels either but as I said, it's kinda necessary. Anyway I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. Please review and I'll be updating soon. It's my birthday on the 10th. Yay.

Kakun: Yep, he's back.

Punkprincess123: Plot device.

Ryuzaki1616: There are gonna get more insane as the story goes on.

Vegetrunks: Well that remains to be seen. Gohan isn't stronger than Vegeta because he stopped training.
