CHAPTER 11


One week after the Earth was saved from the androids. It was a relaxing week as Gogeta had been spending the week with his family as the spaceship was being prepared. Gogeta, Gohan, Chi-Chi and Bulma were at a remote beach house owned by Capsule Corp. Chi-Chi and Bulma laid down on beach chairs as Gogeta and Gohan were lightly sparring in the air, faster than the two can see. Besides Bulma was a crib that held a one-year-old Trunks, and similarly, next to Chi-Chi was a crib that held a one-year-old Goten. The two kids looked excited as they looked at the two sparring, seemingly managing to follow their movements.

Chi-Chi raised her sunglasses as she looked towards Gogeta and Gohan, "Even on a family vacation, they can't help it huh." she said with a smile.

"I know right, you'd think they get tired of fighting at some point." Bulma responded.

"Even one year old saiyans seem interested in fighting." Chi-Chi said as she stood up to pick up Goten, seeing him looking at the two in awe and excitement.

Bulma looked towards Trunks to see him look as awed as Goten, "Guess it's the fate of those of Saiyan blood"

With Gohan and Gogeta, the two clashed, making sure not to make too much of a ruckus. The two stood a bit aways from one another, "Cmon Gohan, I'm going to space and I need to ensure that the earth is safe in your hands." Gogeta said as he took up a fighting stance, Gohan did the same as the two rushed towards each other.

With Bulma and Chi-Chi, they were playing with their kids when a voice was heard behind them. "Are they really training again?" the voice said.

The two looked behind them to see 17 and 18, each in their beachwear. Bulma put down Trunks as she walked towards them. "I'm glad you could join us today! And 18, your bikini looks quite breathtaking." she said excitedly.

17 quickly lost interest in the conversation, "Unfortunately, complimenting each other isn't my strong suit. I'll go join those two over there." he said. 18 rolled her eyes as he flew away.

18 joined the two women as they relaxed on the beach, sounds of the waves and clashing filling the area. 17 flew up to Gohan and Gogeta as they ceased their fighting when 17 arrived.

"Oh, 17, you actually joining us today?" Gogeta asked.

"I might as well, if we aren't going to space yet I guess this is the next best option. Mind if I join you?" 17 responded.

"Not at all, what do you think Gohan? A little 3 person free for all spar?" he asked as Gohan nodded. The three wasted no time as they begun the fight.


SCENE CHANGE


A day later, they all had return to Capsule Corp, they had enjoyed their family vacation and now it was time to leave. During the week, Dr Briefs had made sure the spaceship was in working order and most importantly, there was a perfectly working sound system.

The group quickly went back to their daily tasks as Gogeta, 17 and 18 prepared to leave. The three were in the lab, joined by Gogeta's family as they were saying their goodbyes. "Travel safe, okay? Make sure you eat well every day and come back home as soon as you can." Chi-Chi said.

Bulma put her arm around Chi-Chi, "Don't worry so much, they'll be fine." She said as she looked at Gogeta, and whispered "You better be fine, you didn't knock us up just to die.".

Gogeta smiled, he hugged the two them. "Don't worry, I'll be back before you know it." he assured.

They broke the hug as Gogeta walked over to Gohan, he kneeled to Gohan's height as he held out his fist, "Take care of things here for me, okay?" he said with a smile.

Gohan held his fist as he fist bumped him, he smiled, "I'll do my best".

"That's all I can ask for." he stood up, walking towards the spaceship. The spaceship door opened as Gogeta, 17 and 18 entered. The door closed as Gogeta went to the main control panel, he clicked a few buttons as the spaceship started. The roof of the lab opened up as the spaceship began to float out of it, Gogeta waved bye as they all waved back. The spaceship floated out of the lab and with tremendous speed, it shot out of the Earth, quickly becoming going out of sight.

Trunks and Goten's cries were heard, their sleep being disrupted by the spaceship's launch. "I'll get them." Chi-Chi said as she left, being followed by Gohan and Bulma.


SCENE CHANGE


"And we are out!" Gogeta proclaimed. The ship was already out of Earth's Atmosphere, on course to a planet vegeta had once visited.

"Finally, and where will we be going exactly?" 18 asked.

"There's a planet that's basically a spaceship refuelling station. You can chill in a bar while I ask around for that guy, just try not to cause too much trouble." he explained. "Anyway, there are a few rooms in here, you'll choose whichever you want, I'll be training in the meantime." The twins nodded as they went to select their rooms. Gogeta sat down in the middle of the ship and began to meditate.

A few minutes later, 18 stepped out of her room as she saw Gogeta, cross legged, eyes closed. She walked over to him as she sat down in front of him.

Hearing her sit down in front of him, he opened his eyes. "Need anything?" he asked.

"...It's still hard to believe you know. Enemies one day then you're taking us on family vacations and taking us to space with you. All in the span of one week, there must be a catch." she stated.

Gogeta shook her head, "I've been as honest with you as I could be, no other motives. Your wanting of a fun fight just happens to align with my wanting of a little space adventure to look for someone. Plus, I sensed no malicious intent within the both of you so I thought, 'why not'. It's as simple as that really." Gogeta explained. "If I had sensed any true malicious intent within you, you would be dead." he said, completely serious.

18 didn't show it but she was a little scared by his last sentence. "Whatever, what are you doing?"

"Meditating."

She raised her eyebrow, "Meditation? What's the good in that?"

"It helps keep a calm state of mind, improves my level of concentration and calms my anger. It's useless fighting when you can't even think clearly... " he stopped for a second as he smiled, "Hey, why don't you join me!"

18 raised her eyebrow, "Join you? Meditation isn't for me."

"Come on, meditation is for everyone. Plus, I saw you get agitated when I was beating you, such things can become the difference between life and death."

18 took a second as she sighed, "Fine whatever." she said. She sat down and joined Gogeta in the lotus position as she closed her eyes. "What now?"

Gogeta closed his eyes, "Just calm your mind, enter a deep state of concentration.". The room was silent as the two meditated, though 18 had a bit of trouble keeping her mind calm, she preserved through.

The sounds of a door opening was heard as 17 stepped out, he saw 18 and Gogeta meditating as he raised his eyebrow. 'Hm, would you look at them getting along.'


SCENE CHANGE


One week has passed since the departure from Earth. During that week, with the help of the androids, Gogeta has come to a new hypothesis, what if there are forms above Super Saiyan? It made sense, if there was power beyond a normal Saiyan there had to be something beyond even that of a Super Saiyan.

The group had arrived to an interesting planet. A planet, not too far from the milky way, it was a pit-stop like planet where space traveller's can take a small rest and stock up on supplies. There was even a small restaurant for those who wanted to indulge a little.

The three stepped off the ship as they took a look at their surroundings, seeing many species of different variety all around. Some were entering and exiting the restaurant, some were refuelling their ships and some were restocking.

"And why exactly are we here?" 18 asked.

"Information." He pointed at the restaurant, "There's a small bar in that restaurant over there and the bartenders usually have an unusual amount of information. I'm hoping he may have something we may be looking for."

17 stretched, "I'm just glad to be out of that ship. Being confined is not exactly my Forte.".

"Anyway, you guys can hit the bar, ill join you in a minute, I have a few supplies to get." Gogeta said, the androids nodded as they went their separate ways.

With the androids, the two walked into the restaurant as they looked around,

"Not bad." He said, he walked to a table, with 18 following as they sat down.

"You know, its more obvious than you realise." 17 said.

18 raised her eyebrow, "What?".

"The fact that you like Gogeta." He responded.

"What are you on about?" she said dismissively.

"Don't give me that, I'm your twin brother. I know you better than anyone else, I know how you are when you like someone. You get all dismissive, act like what im saying isn't true."

18 was going to respond but she decided against, a waiter came up to them.

"Greetings sir, mam, I'll be your waiter for this evening. Have you decided on your orders or should I give you more time?" The waiter asked.

"Before we order, we'd like to know if you've seen or heard of a blue skinned short man with short white hair, he wears blue clothes and has a ring behind his head. From what we've heard he's quite the powerful man, probably strongest man around." 17 explained.

The waiter thought for a second and shook her head, "Unfortunately, I haven't heard anything like like that description, but I could ask around if you'd like?"

"Please do. We'll call you when we decide what to get." The waiter nodded and left

Before 17 and 18 could continue their conversation, a large hooded cloak figure appeared besides the table. The twins looked towards the figure, they couldn't see a single feature. All they saw was the shine coming off the many jewelleries worn. They found it weird they couldn't see anything, but they gave the figure a chance.

"Forgive me, I couldn't help but overhear your what you said." a deep, gruff voice said, "I know the person who you're looking for, and I'm willing to give you the information you need... for a price."

18 looked at the figure suspiciously, "And who might you be?"

"That doesn't matter right now, all that matters is that I have what you need. If you truly want the information, then follow me." the figure left, not waiting for a response.

"So we can both see that this is an obvious trap right?" 18 pointed out.

"Of course, although I'm kinda curious now. Like who is he and what interest does he have with us?" 17 rhetorically asked.

18 shrugged, "Who knows, we can follow him and find out."

"Not like we have anything better to do."

The twins got up as they left the restaurant, following the figure. They stayed close to each other, on guard as they followed the figure, passing through the busy side of the planet as they went to darker side of the planet.

"We've been walking for a bit now don't you think?" 17 said.

The figure stopped and smirked, unseen to the twins. "Don't worry, we're almost there." He started to walk again.

"Why don't you state what you actually want, it's obvious this is a trap." 18 said. The figure stopped once again, a few seconds of passed as nothing was said. The figure turned around, facing the androids as he clenched his fist. He opened his clenched fist as a small green glimmer fell to the ground.

With Gogeta, he got his supplies and was walking towards the restaurant when an explosion was heard in the distant. Gogeta snapped his head towards the explosion, but before he could go to the area, he felt himself entrapped. He looked down to see thin purple strings holding him in place.

"It seems the plan began early, a voice behind him said. Gogeta turned his head to see 3 cloaked figures, two short ones and one tall one.

"Doesn't matter, as long as we can hold him until those two are dead." The taller figure said.


CHAPTER END

Anyway, this chapter counts for August, so a new chapter of this and Naruto should be out soon.
