I'm back with more of the Aftermath series. Enjoy.


The prem school bus came to an halt due to heavy traffic, afternoon fifteen minutes past two that Tuesday in Satan city, on a highway. Behind the wheel of the bus was Son Goku, humming to a lyric in his head under the cordial tho noisy chatter of the highschool students: the now retired martial arts practitioner looked at the watch on his left wrist, one part of his mind was annoyed at the delay, whilst another was glad for it:

Son Goku formerly famous participant of the tournament of power (T.O.P) hosted by the Omni Kings, ten years ago (which precisely then was three and half years after T.O.P) had had his life turned upside down. How?: Ten years ago an alien or rather an hybrid of angel and g.o.d came to earth and broadcasting to the entire planet demanded they surrender son Goku, the man that had slept with his betrothed. Goku was not a TV or radio man, and had been at the farm, being almost the only one on the planet to be oblivious to the madness which had suddenly come into his life.

And before anyone could get to him to inquire of him whether yes or no this allegations made against him were true or not; the universe six angel (Vados) in a earthly disguise approached him, Goku ebulliently had thought Vados had been perhaps sent by Champa for a purpose tho he wouldn't know would please him, when she began to speak thus:

"Goku San I know you do not know me all that well, nor did you ask for this, but I ask that you save me." she had said. "Vados San save you, what do you mean?" "A powerful being has come to this world, demanding you be delivered to him for having an affair with me," "An Affair!" His affability by then was gone. "I know you are a simple soul Goku San, a Saiyan warrior with his innate desire being to fight and protect those he holds dear. But this I am begging you to do is neither simple nor natural, nonetheless it is my desire: this being is the product of a god of destruction and an angel like myself, I a year and half ago was on the whim of the Omni Kings betrothed to him and to avoid getting married to him I concocted a lie saying: 'You cannot marry me for I am a disgusting soul, for whilst I am your betrothed I had an affair with a man my heart and body desired. A Saiyan by the name Goku. So now disannul our marriage to be, and do whatsoever pleases you with this truth.' Now do you understand what I need for you to do?"

"Of course, I'll cover for you. If it will save you, but I want something in return," Goku asked as the sun went down that day. "What, anything. Say it."

"That you personally and secretly would train me to master the ultra instincts and some other techniques. Deal?"

"Deal."

They shook on it and Goku went up to space and present himself before Noman, the hybrid and "Confess". Noman being wroth had slapped him (once) into a nine months coma; when Goku woke up, on: he was a single or almost single Saiyan. For chichi had divorced him and had only been waiting for him to sign off on it, and Goku had wanted to blurt out the real truth that he never cheated on her when... Two: He discovered that he had lost his ability to use Ki, god Ki or anything related to it. Though being a saiyan by birth, he was no more than a highly trained human. (which to him was not enough) Third: Goku also found out that Vados's powers were sealed by Daishinkan and her whereabouts was unknown. Fourth: Goku was told a few days after getting discharged from the hospital, that Champa being displeased by what had been done to his attendant had challenged Noman. But the latter wouldn't simply duel the g.o.d, instead promised the unsealing of Vados's powers and his own life on the line if Champa won, (the Zenos agreed) Champa infuriated also promised his own life on the line and his entire domain if he lost.

Their duel according to Vegeta whom had heard it from Beerus and whis (Vados brother) had ended in an hour without Champa (no matter how hard he tried) being able to land a single blow. Thus Champa perished, though not by Erasure, Noman had taken the g.o.d's head with his bare hands. None of the g.o.d's (including Beerus) could protest or do anything, because it had been promised: "'Foolish Champa!'" Beerus (according to Vegeta) had screamed while blowing up a planet.

Now ten years later Goku is working as school bus driver, powerless and without a wife, for he had conceded to the divorce bill without a fight. Son Goku realized his error, and the evil he had both permitted and prevented. As Goku saw it (and his from others) had he not joined in Vados's lie, he and everyone on Earth might have been dead, Vados might be dead and probably all of the universe six. War would have been inevitable, but then again Vados might have been the only one to suffer and everyone spared. Nevertheless Goku followed his guy and shut his trap about what really happened, and now his hairs are spotting several grays, including his moustache. One of the students a young girl with whom Goku had a rapport and had approached him to show him a comedic video she was watching on her phone, and while they were laughing Goku noticed a glimmer of light;

His Ki abilities may have left him, but his years of training and keen senses remained, though all they did was allow him to be the first to notice as that phantom vortex opened up in the sky beyond the bridge on which they were. The vortex to Goku's horror spewed out a man bound in iridescent vines, whom was uncontrollably sent flying towards their bus; Goku instinctively without a thought unbuckled the seat belt, and because there was no time shielded the school girl with his body. Son Goku however could not have known the manner of being spewed out: For the man crashing into the bus wreaked it clean, and only was stayed by the bodies he had crashed through. The school bus exploded in a dazzling burst of flames, which also took out a few other vehicles close by.
