Chapter 2: Raditz and The Year Long Training
As both Goku and Piccolo flew through the sky, following the Dragon radar. The closer that both Goku and Piccolo got to the Dragon Ball, the sight of where Goku's brother was became clearer. Standing before a pod, Raditz stood with his arms crossed, both Hadrian and Gohan nowhere in sight.
Noticing this, Goku scowls as he narrows his eyes at Raditz, the duo landing in front of the Saiyan who looks at the two with disgust.
"So, what brings you chumps here?" Raditz asks, a knowing smirk growing on his face.
The younger Saiyan clenched his fists tightly in anger.
"Isn't it obvious? I'm here to get my sons back!" Goku exclaims angrily, staring at his older brother with hatred "Now where are they? You're hiding them somewhere aren't you?" Goku asks, his voice filled with anger
"The one that was crying was getting on my nerves so I locked him in there with the strong one" Raditz says gesturing to the pod "But forget about the runts, don't tell me you actually think that you stand against me?" Raditz asks, looking at the two.
Both Goku and Piccolo get into their battle stances which causes a scowl to grow on Raditz's face, the anger brimming in the older brother's eyes.
"You fool! You're not even fit to call yourself a Saiyan! Prepare to die" Raditz yells out in a fit of rage.
Goku lets out a yell as he charges at Raditz, striking him in the face sending the older Saiyan flying back, as Piccolo appears from behind the older brother, arms raised high and slamming his cupped fists into Raditz's head, sending him crashing into the ground.
BOOM
Pushing himself up from the ground, Raditz punches the ground in anger and frustration before he pushes himself up to his. Narrowing his eyes at his younger brother, Raditz flies towards Goku, disappearing in front of the younger Saiyans eyes, before appearing behind him, hitting Goku in the back before firing a Ki blast point blank, flinging the younger Saiyan back.
Piccolo charges at Raditz, punching the Saiyan in the gut. The effect of the punch was not what the Namekian hoped as Raditz retaliated, headbutting Piccolo before following by grabbing both sides of Piccolo's head and slamming the Namekians face into his knee.
"Haha, if that's all you got then you would be a waste" Raditz taunted laughing maniacally before kicking Piccolo in the stomach, sending Piccolo crashing into the ground.
Goku shakes his head as he charges at Raditz, kicking the older Saiyan in the face sending him flying back.
Seeing an opening, Goku cupped his hands as a ball of Ki formed in his hands.
"Ka-me-ha-me-ha!" Goku roared, firing a Ki wave at Raditz.
Raditz smirks, as he moves to the side, dodging the attack as the older Saiyan appears in front of Goku, striking him in the face, sending his younger brother into the ground with a loud smash.
Landing on the ground, Raditz looks down at both Goku and Piccolo, who lay on the dirt, bloody and beaten.
The older Saiyan shook his head, a shit eating grin on his face.
"Haha! Even with both of your combined powers, you are still pathetic" Raditz laughs.
"But since you aren't smart enough to heed my warning you don't deserve to live" Raditz says as he raises his hand a ball of dark ki glowing in his hand, ready to kill the duo.
Piccolo and Goku pushed themselves up, groaning in pain and exertion.
"Ngh… Y-You have got to be kidding me" Goku breaths out, exhausted.
Raditz then lowers his hand, his eyes shining with twisted amusement.
Let's break their spirit, Raditz thought to himself.
"You know what? Since i'm going to kill you anyway i'll let you in or a secret" Raditz says smirking "The two Saiyans I mentioned earlier are even more powerful than me"
Goku and Piccolo froze in shock, disbelief present on their faces,
"W-What?" Goku asks scared, Piccolo breathes heavily as he looks between Goku and Raditz.
"If you got a new trick up your sleeve Goku now would be a good time to use it" Piccolo suggested to the younger Saiyan.
Goku winced as he felt his body tense with pain before shaking his head.
"I-I got nothing, sorry" Goku apologizes exhausted
The Namekian grunted as he looked at Goku.
"Well then, lucky for you I've actually come up with something" Piccolo says smirking.
The younger Saiyan blinked in surprise as he turned his attention to the Namekian.
"Really?" Goku asks, hopeful.
Raditz scoffed as he looked at the duo before him in disbelief.
"A plan? Ha, as if that would work. It would be easier for you both to just lay down and die" Raditz says, confident in his power.
"Goku I just need time, you need to keep Raditz distracted for me until I can charge it up" Piccolo states
"Alright, I'll do what I can," Goku nods.
Piccolo with what little strength remaining moved away from both Goku and Raditz, ready to charge up the energy required.
"You just don't know when to quit huh? You want to fight me alone? Hah, you don't stand a chance" Raditz laughs charging at Goku, the younger Saiyan blocks the attacks and counter attacks, kicking Raditz in the stomach before sending a barrage of Ki.
The older Saiyan dodges the Ki blasts and laughs.
"You're really fighting alone? What, were you deciding who gets to die first?" Raditz says, shaking his head in disbelief.
Raditz brings up both hands and fires a wave of purple Ki at his brother, the Ki colliding with Goku and sending him flying.
Using his Ki to reduce his velocity, the younger Saiyan brother gritted his teeth as blood dripped from his wounds.
"Damn it" Goku growls charging at Raditz, kicking his older brother in the stomach, bringing his arms up and slamming Raditz into the ground.
Crash
The sound of the older Saiyan smashing into the ground echoes through the area.
"Kame-Hame-Ha!" Goku yells firing a Ki Wave at Raditz hitting him, and pushing Raditz further into the ground.
From the small hole created by the Ki Wave, Raditz flies out at incredible speed, elbowing Goku in the stomach, only for him to blink as he saw that the young Saiyan had blocked his attack.
Both brothers glare at each other as they struggle to push the other back.
"Hold on boys im coming to save you both" Goku says his attention turning to the pod.
Quickly focusing on the task at hand, Goku pushed his older brother back and spun in the air, using the momentum to kick Raditz in the side, sending the older Saiyan back.
"Haha, you're not saving them. You will die along with your friend" Raditz taunted, appearing in front of his brother, striking Goku in the face, sending his younger brother crashing into the ground.
Raditz lands back on the ground, walking towards Goku menacingly.
"Are you ready to die?" Raditz says in triumph.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Raditz scouter goes off, Raditz looks in the direction of the power causing Raditz to stare in shock as he sees Piccolo charging his attack
"What? He's got that much control over his power?" Raditz says to himself in shock, Raditz then goes stiff from pain.
The older Saiyan's eyes widened in both shock and confusion.
"W-What!?" Raditz exclaims in pain and confusion as he looks behind him, seeing what was causing him severe amounts of pain.
Goku smirked, in his hand was the older Saiyan's tail, once wrapped around Raditz's waist like a belt was now clenched between his younger brother's hands, turning around with difficulty Raditz gets a closed look at Goku
"You let your guard down, now i've got your tail" Goku says despite the pain that he was in from buying Piccolo time.
"D-Damn it! When did you?" Raditz curses through clenched teeth
"Good work Goku, hold onto that tail and don't let go" Piccolo orders as Raditz falls onto the ground in pain
"W-Wait let me go and I-I'll leave the planet in peace" Radktz pleads, groaning in pain.
Piccolo hears this and yells out to the younger Saiyan.
"Don't listen to him Goku, he's trying to trick you" Piccolo warns as his fingers glow as he continues to focus his Ki into them.
"P-Please. Please believe me, brother" Raditz begged "Im begging you Kakarot, don't do this to your only family" Raditz groaned in pain
Goku's eyes widen and he slowly releases Raditz's tail, Raditz smirks and elbows Goku causing the younger Saiyan to slide across the ground.
Raditz then stomps on Goku's chest causing the younger Saiyan to scream out in pain.
"Ha, you actually fell for that? You might actually be the stupidest guy I've ever met" Raditz laughed while stomping on Goku's chest "Dont think I'm going to show mercy on you just because you're my little brother" Raditz laughed stomping on Goku.
Goku screams in pain while Raditz continues to stomp on his chest.
"Yes, that's it. Scream in pain. It will all be over soon" Raditz laughed, the older Saiyan then turns his head to Piccolo with a dark smirk
"Don't get too comfortable, you're next!" Raditz yelled, chuckling.
Damn it, if I do it now he'll dodge it Piccolo growls to himself, frustrated with the current situation.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Raditz freezes as his scouter goes off, his foot holding Goku down.
What is causing this power? Raditz thought as he looked in the direction of the pod, where the power originated from.
Is the kid awake? Raditz worries but froze when the pod explodes open and Gohan charges out with rage and tears in his eyes.
"Leave my daddy alone!" Gohan screams headbutting Raditz's armour
Raditz stumbles back while Gohan goes unconscious
"Damn it" Raditz growled, looking at Gohan
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Raditz's scouter then goes off again, turning around Raditz gets hit in the face by Hadrian, who then grabs his leg, swinging the older Saiyan into the ground as the young Potter follows up with a kick to the face, sending Raditz flying back.
Forcing himself to stop, the older Saiyan glared at the young Potter with rage in his eyes.
"Damn you!" Raditz roared, shooting a Ki blast at Hadrian, the blast exploding before him, causing the young Potter to be sent flying back, getting knocked unconscious as the young boy's head slammed into the ground.
Raditz growled as he walked up the young boy, glaring down at Hadrian with rage in his eyes.
"You're a stubborn bastard!" Raditz roared, firing another Ki blast at the young Potter, the blast hitting the unconscious boy, sending Hadrian to be embedded further into the ground.
The older Saiyan grinned darkly as he saw cuts and bruises beginning to form on Hadrian's body, the young Potter still unconscious.
"You are a stubborn little shit aren't you?" Raditz growled as he stood up and limped towards the unconscious body of Hadrian. "You will pay for striking me" Raditz spat, raising his hand towards Hadrian as dark Ki began to form in his hand.
But before Raditz could kill Hadrian, he freezes as his entire body is consumed by pain, Raditz's tail once more in Goku's grasp.
"Now Piccolo, do it!" Goku yells, holding onto Raditz's tail as tightly as he could.
Nodding his head, the Namekian aimed his finger at both Saiyans.
"Special Beam Cannon!" Piccolo without hesitation yells, firing a pink energy beam with orange energy spiralling around it. The beam charges through the air, colliding with Raditz, the force of the Ki attack piercing through his body and shooting through Goku, sending the both of them flying back, massive holes in their stomachs and blood seeping out of the life threatening wounds.
Raditz coughed up blood, laying on the ground, his eyes wide in shock and disbelief.
"I-I can't be beaten… By scum like you. I-I can't" Raditz groaned painfully.
Piccolo walked up the older Saiyan, sneering down at him.
"Well you just were," the Namekian says, huffing at the Saiyan's arrogance.
Raditz chuckles and shakes his head in confusion and disappointment
"I… Can't believe Kakarot would just throw away his own life" Raditz says in shock.
"You idiot, trust me Goku won't be dead for very long" Piccolo says annoyed.
The older Saiyan blinked in surprise.
"W-What?" Raditz asks, confused.
"Didnt you know? This planet is home to the dragon balls. We can just wish Goku back to life" Piccolo says with a smug smirk.
Raditz cursed but a smirk grew on his face.
"D-Damnit. W-Well, my comrades will be happy… To hear that" Raditz says, chuckling, causing Piccolo to freeze and stare at the Saiyan in confusion.
"What?" Piccolo asks confused
"E-Everything you just said… They heard, it was transmitted… To them on the other side… Of the universe" Raditz says chuckling before coughing up blood.
"H-How long, do you think… They'll get here?" Goku asks in pain
"A year, just one year from… Now," Raditz says laughing as his last breath was drawn.
"Damn it, one year where even stronger warriors arrive" Piccolo growls angrily
Soon a jet was heard and from it, those from Kame House exited the jet, only to see Goku lying on the ground dying and rushing to him, worry and fear in their eyes.
It wasn't long before Piccolo warns the group that a pair of Saiyans will be coming to Earth, who are even more powerful than Raditz.
"This isn't good," Roshi says, shaking his head with a worried expression on his face.
"That's pretty much everything" Piccolo informs, trying to remain as calm as he looked.
"Come on Goku, don't give up" Krillin pleaded, kneeling before a wounded Goku.
"K-Krillin… You know dying is… a lot worse than I thought it would be" Goku jokes, coughing up blood.
The Saiyan's friend nodded his head in understanding.
"Y-Yeah. But don't worry we will bring you back really soon" Krillin says, his voice filled with confidence.
"Hehe… T-Thank you" Goku says as he takes his last breath.
"G-Goku" Krillin whispers, saddened, Goku's body then just disappears out of thin air causing Krillin to jump back in surprise.
"What the?" Krillin breaths out in confusion.
"He's gone," Roshi says, surprised.
Piccolo hummed in thought as he crossed his arms.
"Interesting… I bet Kami has something to do with this" Piccolo says, looking up into the sky.
Roshi let out a sigh of relief.
"I guess that puts our mind at ease if Kami's involved" The old man says, smiling slightly.
"You guys get the dragon balls. Kami doesn't possess the power to bring someone back from the dead" Piccolo informs them before turning his attention to Gohan, walking towards the son of Goku.
"Goku's kid will be coming with me for the time being" Piccolo informs looking over Gohan.
Roshi blinked as he frowned at the Namekian.
"And what about Harry?" Roshi asks curiously .
"I assume it's that other kid you're talking about and he is already pretty strong and the way he fought showed that he is at least trained. I'll check on him later" Piccolo says.
Krillin frowned as he stepped forward.
"But what are you going to do with Gohan?" Krillin asks worried
"He needs a good teacher, I'll train him" Piccolo states, picking Gohan up, holding the young Saiyan under his arm.
"When Goku comes back, tell him that he'll get his son back in a better shape than before" the Namekian informs everyone before flying off with Gohan.
Bulma sighed as she rubbed the bridge of her nose.
"Chi-Chi Isn't going to be happy" the young woman sighs, shaking her head.
Krillin winced, knowing how badly the mother of Gohan was going to react.
"You got that right" Krillin nods his head in agreement.
-Hadrian Pov-
Upon waking up with a pained groan, I look up to see Bulma, Krillin and Roshi looking down at me with saddened expressions on their faces.
Blinking in surprise, I shook my head with a pained breath.
"What's wrong?" I asked, groaning slightly as I sat up.
Krillin took a deep breath and then spoke
"It's Goku… He's… Dead" Krillin says, causing my eyes to go wide, tears slowly begin to build up in my eyes, threatening to fall down my face.
He's gone? Goku is gone? He helped me grow so much and… And now he's gone I thought as tears finally escaped my eyes, dripping down my face.
Roshi stopped forward, placing a comforting hand on my shoulder.
"But we are able to bring him back to life" the old man states happily, despite the tears in his eyes.
I froze, looking at Roshi in confusion.
"What do you mean? How?" I ask, sniffling slightly, still hurt by Goku's death.
"There's these things known as dragon balls. Get all 7 and you can get a wish, ours would be bringing Goku back to life" Krillin answers with a small smile, trying to help comfort me.
I took a deep breath and nodded my head, a smile slowly beginning to form on my face.
"Ok, that's good" I say, feeling better thanks to both their confidence and words.
But that's when I noticed the tense atmosphere between the trio.
I frown as I look closely at all three of them.
"What's wrong?" I ask, confused by their tense postures.
Bulma sighed, looking at me with worry.
"Before Raditz died, he informed Goku and Piccolo that two other Saiyan were coming to Earth to kill us and use the Dragon Balls, in fact Raditz seemed confident that we would lose" Bulma answers, concern present in her voice.
I frown as I look at the young woman with a confused look on my face.
"Piccolo?" I ask confused
"He's this green guy with antennas on his head. He also took Gohan to train him to fight the 2 Saiyans" Roshi answers.
I let out a sigh as I shook my head.
"Chi-Chi's not going to like that" I state, knowing how much the woman wanted her son to study.
Krillin nodded his head, agreeing with my statement.
"Yeah. Piccolo believes that both you and Gohan could be the key to helping us defeat the 2 Saiyans" Krillin states with a tired sigh.
"So if this Piccolo guy thinks that two kids can help fight a pair of Saiyans that both Goku and him struggled to defeat then I assume that these 2 Saiyans are stronger than Raditz?" I ask tiredly, Krillin gulps nervously and nods.
Which means that if I don't try to help we will all be dead I thought, letting out a frustrated breath.
With a sigh I pushed myself off the ground, wincing slightly at the pain in my body.
"Then I better start training," I say, cracking my back.
The trio look at me, shock and disbelief in their eyes.
"What? You're actually just going to train and prepare. Just like that?" Krillin asks, surprised.
"Yeah, no point in sitting around and crying about something that can't be fixed. Besides, Goku isn't permanently dead thanks to the Dragon Balls as you said, which means we don't have to worry about never seeing him again" I explained, trying to see the positives in the situation.
"Yeah, Goku is going to train in Other World for when the Saiyans arrive," Roshi answers.
"Then we better get to work" I smirk, my Saiyan blood boiling with adrenaline and excitement.
With a wave at the trio and green aura exploded from my body as I flew in the air, heading in a random direction in search for a good spot to train.
-General Pov-
Landing in the middle of a forest Hadrian looks around and nods to himself
This looks like a good place to train Hadrian thought to himself as he began to brainstorm new ways to become stronger. As the young Saiyan continued to brainstorm, Godric's words rang in his head.
"I don't know much about the race except that they were a warrior race and that if they survive near death they grow stronger" Hadrian's eyes open wide
That's it! I need to be able to put myself to near death and survive. I should try to hit myself with a Ki blast by appearing in front of it after firing Hadrian thought.
Let's do this Hadrian thought as he cupped both his hands together, a ball of ki forming between them.
"Ka-me-ha-me-ha!" Hadrian roared, firing a beam of blue energy from his hands.
As fast as he could, Hadrian attempted to fly in front of the Ki wave only to fail miserably as it shot past him, exploding off in the distance.
I guess I need to focus on improving my speed to get in front of it, Hadrian thought, annoyed by the set back.
The young Potter then spent the next few hours firing Ki wave after Ki wave, failing every time to get in front of it. But as time went on, Hadrian began to notice that his speed was beginning to increase.
This might be the one Hadrian thought, sweat drenching his body from using Ki.
"HAAAA!" Hadrian roared with his arms by his side as a green aura exploded from the young Saiyan's body.
"Kame-hame-ha!" Hadrian roared, shooting a beam of blue Ki, pushing himself, Hadrian was able to get in front of it taking the full force of the Ki wave resulting in Hadrian crashing into the ground, damaged and bloody.
Ow, that is going to leave a mark Hadrian thought groaning.
Just then, Hadrian sensed a powerful energy level making its way towards him.
From the sky Krillin lands next to him, a bag in his hands and worry in his eyes.
"Hey, are you ok!?" Krillin exclaims running to Hadrian
"Yeah, I just need to get back in shape and I get a power boost" Hadrian replies groaning as he attempts to sit up.
Krillin looks at Hadrian, tilting his head slightly
"How would that help?" Krillin asks confused
"I had a talk with a family member who knew of my ancestry and he told me about the fact that when Saiyans survive near death they will grow stronger from it," Hadrian explained.
Krillin stared at Hadrian in shock and shook his head, not bothering to understand the biology of Saiyans.
"I see, well whatever. Here take a Senzu bean, you will need it" Krillin says, putting a green bean in Hadrian's mouth.
Biting on the bean all of Hadrian's wound heal and he felt slightly stronger
"Haha, I feel better than before!" Hadrian exclaims, smiling.
Krillin frowned as he watched the young Saiyan jump around.
"Why do I feel like this will be a common thing?" Krillin asks worried
"I'm only going to do this once a month, I'll spend the rest of the time actually training instead of shooting myself" Hadrian says cheekily.
"Good to hear, here take this, I think it's best you have the rest of these. Doubt it's a good idea to have you incapacitated for several days because you thought shooting yourself was a good training method" Krillin says, handing a bag of Senzu beans.
The young Potter grabbed the bag of Senzu and nodded, smiling at Krillin.
"Thanks Krillin, these Saiyans don't know who they're messing with" Hadrian growls in anger unknowing to the fact that his eyes flashed gold.
Krillin's eyes widened in shock, looking at Hadrian he only saw the young Saiyan's emerald green; he quickly shook his head, forgetting about what he had just seen.
Probably just my imagination Krillin dismissed before flying away.
-Break-
Once the sun finally set Hadrian found himself sitting on a log with a giant fish being cooked over a campfire
Thank god for the technique Goku taught me when it comes to fishing with my tail, Hadrian thought smiling. Reminiscing of his time with Goku before the event with Raditz.
Hadrian chuckles and looks up into the night sky staring at the stars twinkling in the sky. From the corner of his eye, Hadrian sees the full moon in all its glory.
Hadrian gasped as his body began to pulse with power, his chest heaving and his breathing growing heavy. Slowly fur began to grow on Hadrian's body as he began to increase in size.
Soon a roar could be heard through the area, Hadrian was now in his great ape form. The giant ape opened its mouth, a bright green ball of Ki beginning to form. But just as the giant ape was about to fire it stopped.
The giant ape closed its mouth, its body relaxing.
That was a close one Hadrian thought upon regaining control of his body.
Hadrian then sat down, still in his great ape form and closed his eyes
The giant ape is part of me, I need to control the monster within Hadrian thought.
As Hadrian mediated he felt a connection with his ape form.
That's it. Now I need to understand it, Hadrian thought to himself.
As Hadrian begins to familiarise himself with the connection with his instinctual side the moon exploded into hundreds of pieces, scattering across the night sky.
What the hell! Hadrian screamed internally as he began to return to his normal form.
Upon returning to his normal state Hadrian shakes his head confused and upon looking up at the sky, the moon now gone as the remnants fell towards the Earth
What the hell happened?! Hadrian thought in shock.
-Time Skip-
Hadrian sighed as he shook his head, water flying from his spiky hair.
Hadrian was currently by a lake, his clothes off to the side while Hadrian washed himself.
It had been a while since Hadrian had washed himself so he decided it was best to take one in a lake.
I wonder what Krillin and Goku are doing? Hadrian thought to himself.
Closing his eyes, Hadrian began to concentrate on Krillin's Ki.
Hadrian frowned, tilting his head to the side as he felt multiple other energies of similar power to that of Krillin's.
Hmm, I should take a look Hadrian thought to himself as he leapt out of the lake, using his Ki to remove the water from his body.
Putting his clothes on, Hadrian flew off with a green Ki trail behind him, searching for the source of Ki.
-Break-
Upon reaching one of the sources of the energy, Hadrian landed to see a tall bald man wearing a green outfit with a weird white kid with red cheeks on his face.
Ok, now that is something The young Potter thought to himself, a small frown on his face.
"Oh, hello there" The weird white skinned kid greeted.
"Hey, what are you both doing out here?" Hadrian asks, gesturing to the area around them which was currently located in a forest.
"Training" The man says, turning to look at Hadrian.
The young Saiyan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow as he looked at the man who had a third eye on his forehead.
"What about you?" The white kid asked curious as he floated in the air.
"Same" Hadrian answers with a nod.
The three eyed man looked at Hadrian with cautious gaze
"Any reason you are here?" The man asks with a raised eyebrow
"I sensed your power and decided to check it out" Hadrian answers with a shrug.
"What's your name kid?" The man asks
Just then the white skinned kid gasped
"Look Tien, he has a tail" The kid says in shock.
The man, now known as Tien, looked at Hadrian, wide eyed.
"He does have a tail. There are only 2 people I am aware of that have a tail like that. Gohan is with Piccolo. So that means your Harry" Tien states.
"Hadrian. Harry is a nickname Goku decided to give me" Hadrian shrugged, now understanding that the people before him know Goku.
"Sorry about that. I am Chiaotzu, this is Tien Shinhan" The kid, now known as Chiaotzu introduces.
"Nice to meet you Chiaotzu. Tien Shinhan" Hadrian greets the duo.
Tien nods his head at the young Saiyan.
"Nice to meet you Hadrian" Tien greets.
"So I assume you are aware of the Sa-" Hadrian was then cut off by Chiaotzu
"Saiyans. Yeah we are training to fight them" Chiaotzu answers.
Hadrian nods his head in understanding
"That's good to hear. Any tips on training?" Hadrian asks Tien and Chiaotzu
"Hmm. Well there is the Multi-Form technique but its power is divided based on the amount of clones" Tien answers.
Hadrian paused and looked at Tien in shock
"Clones? That means they are physical?" Hadrian asks, shocked.
Tien nods his head, slightly in confusion
"Yeah why?" Tien asks
"Can you teach it to me?" Hadrian asks hopeful.
Tien looked at hadrian, confusion in his eyes before he shrugged
"Sure why not," Tien says.
-Break-
After finally learning the Multi-Form technique, Hadrian flew towards the next closest power level which turned out to be the weakest but not by much.
Landing on the ground, Hadrian saw a man in an orange gi, with an x shaped scar on his cheek and a weird floating blue cat by his side.
"Oh hello there" The man greets with a smile
"Hello" The cat greets excitedly.
"Hello" Hadrian greets as he looks at the outfit the man had. "That's the same outfit as Goku's," Hadrian commented.
Immediately the man smiles brightly
"Ah, you must be Hadrian. Bulma told me about you and how you are so similar to Goku" The man says with a smile
"Really? I assume you're training for the Saiyans arrival as well?" Hadrian asks knowingly.
"Yes I am. Yamcha's, the name. This is Puar" Yamcha greets .
"Hello" Puar greets waving his hand happily.
"Nice to meet you both. What are you doing for training?" Hadrian asks curious.
Yamcha looks at Hadrian with a bright smile
"We are heading to Kami's lookout to be trained" Yamcha answers
"Very well. I wish you the best of luck" Hadrian nods his head
I wonder why I feel like they aren't going to get much training? Hadrian thought to himself
"Pecking Order" A powerful voice echoes into his mind, causing Hadrian to shiver.
"The hell was that?" Hadrian asks himself as he looks around with slight fear.
Quickly shaking it off, Hadrian flies off, returning to his training area.
-Break-
Reaching his destination, Hadrian took a deep breath as he went into a fighting stance.
"Multi-Form Technique" Hadrian shouted and another version of Hadrian stood before him.
Alright let's do this. It might be weaker than me but it will still be good training Hadrian thought as he charged forward, his copy following his lead.
Both Hadrian and his clone clash fists, before sending a barrage of kicks and strikes (Melee Clash). With a roar, Hadrian kicks the clone in the face, sending it crashing into the ground before kicking it in the stomach, embedding the clone into the ground.
Hadrian looks at the clone laying before him and sighs, cancelling the technique
It's a lot weaker than I thought it would be. Good for diversions but fighting? Not so much Hadrian thought to himself before an idea popped into his head.
"Multi-Form Technique" Hadrian shouted once more, but instead of one clone, three stood before him.
Ok, let's see how I handle three opponents at the same time Hadrian thought with a smirk as he lunged towards the clones.
-Time Skip-
Hadrian sighed as he stood before Potter Castle. It has been a few months since he had been training and he now found his clothes starting to become too tight for his liking.
Entering the house, Hadrian hears the sound of Flue Powder exploding.
Looking in the living room, Hadrian saw Lucy, his twin sister, fall onto the ground laughing happily.
Soon followed by Violet and Rose and soon Joshua and Lily and James.
"That was so much fun. Can we do it again?" Lucy asks excitedly.
James and Joshua chuckle while Violet, Rose and Lily giggle in amusement.
Crouching beside Lucy, Lily patted her youngest daughter's head and smiles at her fondly
"We will when we go on another vacation honey" Lily answers with a smile.
Immediately Lucy's eyes brighten with excitement.
"When? Can we go?" Lucy asks energetically
"In the future. Tomorrow your mother and I need to go back to work tomorrow" James informs Lucy.
"Aww" Lucy pouts, crossing her arms in front of her chest and looking off to the side, pretending to not want to see them.
"Don't worry, we will be going on a vacation in the future. And I'm certain Sirius, Cecelia and Elizabeth would love to come with us" James says warmly
"Yeah!" Lucy cheers while her older siblings watch with a smile.
Hadrian watched this unfold with his fists clenched tightly, drawing small drops of blood as his nails pierced his skin.
Am I really that worthless that they don't even realise that they forgot about me? Hadrian thought upset.
Shaking his head with a growl Hadrian heads upstairs, towards the attic to go see Godric,
Hadrian finally reached the door to the attic and took a deep breath.
I wonder how different I am since he last saw me. It has been nearly a third of a year Hadrian thought to himself.
Opening the door Hadrian listens in to hear only silence, but just then, he hears a familiar voice cut through the silence
"Hello? Who's there?" The portrait of Godric asks curious
Hadrian chuckles and enters Godric's field of vision
"Relax Godric it's me, if you were panicking that is" Hadrian says with a teasing smile on his face.
Godric smiled brightly upon seeing Hadrian and let out a short laugh of joy.
"Oh, it's good to see you again, Hadrian. How have you been?" Godric asks curious, hints of excitement in his voice.
"I've been good, I'm training as I said I would. But I'm taking my training up a notch. Seems some Saiyans are coming to attack Earth, intending to steal some mystical items and destroy the world, so I have to prepare for that but other than preparing to protect the world from those crazy bastards, it wasn't bad" Hadrian answers calmly.
Godric sat in his portrait, his eyes wide and eyebrows reaching up to his forehead.
"What? Seriously?" Godric asks, shocked.
Hadrian nods his head with determination in his eyes
"Hadrian I know you're a Saiyan as well but you have to be careful, you're still just a kid" Godric says worried.
Hadrian glared slightly at the portrait, the determination shining in his eyes
"Being a Saiyan is something none of my siblings are, this is who I am Godric and I will fight because I desire it" Hadrian states firmly, his voice leaving no room for argument.
Godric sighs and nods his head in reluctant acceptance
"Very well Hadrian, I wish you the best of luck" Godric says with a sad yet worried smile.
Hadrian nodded his head, a small smile on his face.
"Thanks Godric, time to get to work" Hadrian states as he leaves the attic, leaving Godric in his portrait, worrying about Hadrian.
I hope you don't you don't die from this Godric thought saddened.
-Break-
Hadrian sighed, it's been a day since the Potters have returned and he couldn't stand it anymore… His blasted shirt is too small.
Knowing what to do, Hadrian left his room, heading towards Joshua's room knowing exactly what he wanted.
Entering the room without a care in the world, Hadrian saw Joshua jump in surprise.
Joshua then watches as Hadrian went towards his closet, opening it and beginning to search inside.
"Harry, what are you doing?" Joshua asks confused as he laid on his bed
"Getting a shirt" Hadrian answers, his tail wrapped around his waist like a belt.
The eldest Potter sibling frowned as he tilted his head.
"Why are you getting my shirt?" Joshua asks confused
"Because mine is too small" Hadrian answers shortly.
"No, they are not Harry. Don't take my shirt" Joshua huffed, shaking his head
"It is… I don't care what you say" Hadrian states.
"Whatever" Joshua grumbled, shaking his head as he grabbed a Transfiguration book and began reading it.
Looking through the closet, Hadrian eventually finds a black shirt. With a smile, Hadrian takes off his shirt and puts on the black shirt.
Perfect fit Hadrian thought with a smirk, knowing that he was as large as his older brother.
Grabbing his old shirt Hadrian began to walk out of Joshua's room who just shrugged it off, uncaring that Hadrian took a plain black shirt
As long as it isn't my favourite one I don't really care, Joshua thought to himself.
-Break-
"Hah!" Hadrian roars, punching one of his clones before moving to the right, feeling a fist scrape against his cheek.
Hadrian quickly grasps the arm and throws another one of his clones at the one he had attacked before.
Cancelling the technique, Hadrian watches as his clones disappear into energy before dissipating into the air.
Turning towards the lake nearby, Hadrian started to wash the sweat off his face from his training.
After finally washing off the sweat from his face, Hadrian sat down with a sigh. Staring at the beautiful wild life, peace and quiet. Until Hadrian senses moving towards him from behind.
"You have grown brat" A voice says from behind Hadrian, the young Saiyan sighs and cracks his back, turning towards the voice to see a green man with two antennas on his head.
This must be Piccolo Hadrian thought as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"What do you want? Shouldn't you be training?" Hadrian asks, cocking an eyebrow.
Piccolo looks at Hadrian, noticing the muscles that have started to grow on the young Saiyan's body.
He's making progress from what his power level shows Piccolo thought to himself.
"You have grown more than your brother," Piccolo comments, looking at Hadrian from top to bottom, inspecting the state of the young Saiyan.
"He's not my brother by blood, I learned from Goku and lived with him for a while" Hadrian answers calmly "And what about Gohan? I was told that you started training him. How is that going?" Hadrian asks curious, knowing that Gohan wasn't really much of a fighter.
"I see, well at least you were taught how to fight properly. But the brat on the other hand isn't able to train just yet but he is close. But first I want to see how strong you have gotten, I want to make sure that you haven't been wasting time messing around" Piccolo growls, getting into a fighting stance.
Hadrian grunts and uncrosses his arms. The young Saiyan's eyes narrow as he charges at Piccolo, surprising the alien with his speed and punching him in the face before following up with a side kick to the stomach, flinging Piccolo into a stone pillar.
Piccolo coughed as he found himself embedded in the stone pillar, his eyes wide with shock.
Damn! He has grown a lot, he hits worse than Raditz ever did Piccolo thought as he pulls himself out of the body shaped hole.
Piccolo looks at Hadrian who smirks at him
"I think we might have a chance at winning this" Piccolo mumbles, staring at Hadrian.
Hadrian, not knowing what Piccolo said, narrowed his eyes
"What?" Hadrian demands angrily, Piccolo chuckles as he looks at Hadrian. a small smirk grows on his face
Oh yeah, we have a chance, Piccolo thought, looking at Hadrian who has a scowl on his face.
-Time Skip-
Hadrian yawned, slowly opening his eyes to see a ceiling over his head.
With a groan, Hadrian sat up, his cover slowly sliding down revealing his bare torso, signs of abbs beginning to form while his tail swung behind him.
Hadrian then hears his stomach rumble causing the Saiyan to sigh
Guess I should eat before I head off Hadrian thought to himself as he sat, grabbing Joshua's black shirt and putting it on and wrapping his tail around his waist.
Heading downstairs, Hadrian smiles as he sees several plates of food waiting on the dining table.
Thank you House Elves Hadrian thought with a smile as he sat down and began eating.
POP
Hadrian looked to his side to see Nisty smiling at him happily
"I is happy you like the food Master Harry" Nisty says happily
Hadrian nodded his head, grateful for Nisty providing him food
"Thank you Nisty. I am grateful for the food" Hadrian says as he resumes consuming his breakfast.
Just then Hadrian sensed and heard someone enter the dining room.
"Ohh, this all looks good" James Potter says as he looks at the food on the dining table, not noticing his youngest son eating.
SMACK
James felt a hand smack his hand as he attempted to eat the food.
Looking in confusion, James froze when seeing Hadrian glare at him
"Harry, why did you smack my hand?" James asks, confused, not even noticing Hadrian's spiky hair.
"Because it is my food," Hadrian said with narrowed eyes.
"You're not going to be able to eat all this," James says with slight amusement.
"Bet" Hadrian retorts, as he begins eating all the food capable of feeding an entire family of four.
James' jaw dropped at his youngest son's unnatural appetite.
"Ahh" Hadrian sighed happily, satisfied with his meal. "That was nice," Hadrian says with a smile.
James' jaw opened and closed as his mind was trying to understand what had just happened
"Since when can you eat this much!?" James exclaims in shock.
Hadrian looked at James with narrowed eyes
"For several months" Hadrian answered coldly.
James stared at Hadrian with an odd look on his face.
"If you have been eating that much in France then we would know" James says with a disbelieving tone.
So that is where they went, Hadrian realised.
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever" Hadrian grumbled as he stood up, ready to start his training in the wilderness.
Just then, Lily entered the dining room with a smile
"Oh, hey Honey. Morning Harry" Lily says with a smile only to freeze. Lily slowly looked at Hadrian with a confused gaze. Her eyes slowly moved towards her youngest son's unnaturally spiky hair.
"Harry, when did you do your hair like this?" Lily asks confused
James looked at Lily with confusion written on his face before he finally noticed Hadrian's hair.
"Yeah. Now that I think about it, I don't recall Harry doing his hair like this" James commented.
Hadrian scoffed and shook his head with disbelief
"My hair has been like this for the past several months" Hadrian states with an annoyed tone.
"Honey, we would know if your hair was like this for such a long time. We are your parents, we would notice this stuff" Lily states.
Hadrian snorted in disbelief
Really? Guess you aren't as good as a parent as you thought Hadrian thought with a scowl.
"Whatever. I'm heading out" Hadrian growled as he walked past his parents and exited through the back door, flying off as fast as he could.
Not noticing his parents chasing after him only to look around in confusion as they didn't see him fly away.
-Time Skip-
"Kamehameha" Hadrian roared, firing the blue Ki wave and flying in front of it. Taking the full blast of the attack.
Groaning in pain, Hadrian crashes into the ground as his torso was covered in scratches and bruises.
With some difficulty, Hadrian was able to grab a Senzu bean and consume it, healing all of his wounds.
Rolling his shoulder, causing it to crack. Hadrian grabbed his older brother's shirt and put it on.
Don't want Josh to crack the shits over me destroying his clothes, Hadrian thought to himself.
Just then Hadrian sensed two power levels heading towards him.
As the power levels got closer, Hadrian smirked as he saw both Gohan and Piccolo land in front of him.
"Hey Gohan, how have you been?" Hadrian asks, curious as he walks towards the duo.
Gohan chuckled, slight embarrassment.
"I could have been better, what about you?" Gohan asks shyly
Hadrian chuckled and nodded his head
"I'm alright" Hadrian answered before turning towards Piccolo "Sup Piccolo" Hadrian greets with a smirk.
"Brat" Piccolo grunted
Hadrian scowled at Piccolo before it changed to a smirk
"Walking cucumber" Hadrian retorts and Piccolo sputters in shock
"You better watch it" Piccolo warns making Hadrian raise an eyebrow curious
"Or what? The last time we fought I kicked your ass. Or are you here for round 2?" Hadrian taunted with a smirk
"Damned brat" Piccolo growls angrily while Hadrian smirks.
"So what are you both here for?" Hadrian asks curious
Gohan looks at Piccolo, curiosity in his eyes.
"*Grunt* I'm here to have both of you brats train together so that we can prepare for the Saiyans" Piccolo answers
"And yet I have a higher Power Level than you" Hadrian says, amusement in his voice.
"Just shut up and let's do this" Piccolo snapped, ignoring Hadrian's smug grin.
-Time Skip-
Piccolo watched as both Hadrian and Gohan fought against one another.
One thing Piccolo noticed was despite Gohan's latent potential, Hadrian had even more. He learned faster, adapted quicker, and improved at a higher rate.
As Gohan grew on strength Hadrian would grow even further causing the gap in power between the two to increase steadily.
That is odd. Seems the older brat has as much natural talent in fighting as Goku Piccolo noticed.
"Masenko" Gohan yells firing a yellow beam of energy towards Hadrian
The young Saiyan smirked and placed both his hands together
"KAMEHAMEHA" Hadrian roared, firing Goku's signature blue energy beam at Gohan.
Both beams clash, Ki flying everywhere as some lash at the area nearby.
Slowly Gohan's Ki attack begins to push Hadrian back.
Piccolo couldn't help but tilt his head in confusion
What? How is Gohan winning? Hadrian is stronger and still has more energy Piccolo thought confused.
Soon Gohan's Ki beam finally hits Hadrian at full force causing smoke to explode everywhere, blinding both Piccolo and Gohan.
"Did I win?" Gohan asks in confusion.
From the smoke, Hadrian emerged and kicked Gohan, flinging him back and knocking him out.
"Never let your guard down Gohan" Hadrian says with a smirk as his clothes were damaged and cuts and bruises covered his body.
Piccolo stood there in shock as he realised what Hadrian had done
No way! The brat purposefully took Gohan's full attack, letting him let his guard down and finishing him off with one strike Piccolo thought, his jaw practically on the floor
Well this is going to be interesting Piccolo thought to himself.
