Goka panted heavily as she stood up. The last several months had been extremely hard for her. After dying, she had been allowed to keep her body so that she could train under someone named King Kai. However, to do so she had to run across an 800 kilometer road called Snake Way. It had taken her months and she was exhausted, but now she was here.

She looked around to try to look for King Kai, but then noticed a monkey running along the ground. The saiyan woman greeted the monkey and asked,

"Hi, little guy! Are you King Kai? 'Cause if you are, I'm gonna need training fast!"

She then suddenly heard a snickering, and out from behind a house walked a short, round blue man with a strange outfit. The strange man then sad,

"No, that's my pet monkey, Bubbles. I'm the Kaio of the northern galaxy, but I prefer to be called King Kai."

Goka excitedly got got to her feet upon hearing this and exclaimed,

"You are?! That's great! Could you train me? Also, why is this planet so heavy?"

The kai chuckled and replied,

"Well, this planet's gravity is 10 times that of the Earth's. And if you're serious about training, then alright. But first, you'll have to pass my test."

Goka tilted her head to the side in confusion as King Kai continued by saying,

"Yes, you must tell me a clever joke that will make me laugh. But I warn you, my sense of humor is very refined."

Goka's eyes widened at this, and she put her hands on her hips in annoyance, yelling,

"Evil aliens are coming to Earth to kill my friends and my son, AND YOU WANT ME TO TELL JOKES?!"

King Kai backed up a little in fear and replied,

"H-Hey, calm down! All you have to do is tell a joke!"

Goka then slammed King Kai over the head, causing him to hit the floor hard. A vein still in her forehead, she crossed her arms and said,

"Fine, I'll do it…"

She then began thinking up jokes, and finally said,

"The…clock said…MY HANDS ARE TIED!!"

King Kai recoiled in shock and stammered out,

"A clock's hands…that's not bad…"

He then began holding back a laugh, and seeing that her jokes were working, then asked,

"Why…did the chicken…cross the road? IT WAS FREE RANGE!!!!"

King Kai now had to try even harder to stifle a laugh, and seeing her chance, GOka went in for the kill.

"What's the difference between a jeweler and a jailer?! One sells diamonds, one sells watches!!!"

The kai then began laughing immensely, and Goka victoriously proclaimed,

"Alright! You laughed! That means you have to train me!!!"

After King Kai stopped laughing, he got up, wiped his glasses and said,

"Oh, my, my, my…alright kid, you're in."

He then called over his monkey and told Goka,

"Your first test will be to catch my monkey Bubbles. With this level of gravity, it should be quite the trial."

Goka was confused, but nodded and began trying to chase after the monkey, but due to the gravity, she kept tripping over herself and struggling to move. Eventually, she got fed up and took off her weighted clothing. Now unweighted, she got closer and closer to catching bubbles, until 40 days later, Goka finally caught Bubbles.

King Kai congratulated her, and just as they were about to start training, Goka asked King Kai,

"By the way, could you do something for me?"

"Oh? And what's that?"

"I've been worried about my son. It's been forever since I died, and who knows what's happened to him. Is there a way for you to show me how he's doing?"

King Kai put his hand on his chin and replied,

"Well, I suppose so. Just put your hand on my back, think as hard as you can and I'll show you."

Goka was confused how this would work, but did what King Kai requested. She placed her hand on his back and closed her eyes, and suddenly she saw her son wearing a ki that looked her's and killing a dinosaur with a little sword. She cried out,

"Gohan-Chan!"

Surprised, Gohan paused and began looking around, asking,

"Oka-San? Is that you?"

"Uh-huh! I'm training under this guy named King Kai! Why are you in the wilderness?"

"Oh! Mr Piccolo kidnapped me and left me alone in the wilderness so that I would get braver and I would train with him to fight the saiyans!"

"WHAT?!"

Goka felt ready to come back to Earth and rip Piccolo to pieces herself upon hearing that. How dare he kidnap her baby boy and leave him in the wilderness where he could get killed! Gohan then continued by saying,

"Don't worry! I've killed a lot of dinosaurs! When I start training with Mr Piccolo, I'll be sure to show him how strong I've grown!"

Goka smiled a little at her son's confidence, and replied,

"Alright, son. That's good. Give him the ol' one-two for me, ok?"

"I will!"

Goka then disconnected the call and told King Kai,

"Alright, I'm ready."

And so, Goka began her training under King Kai, growing more and more used to the 10 times gravity to the point where it felt like second nature. In addition, she learned 2 techniques from the kai. The Kaio-Ken, an energy boost technique that could increase one's power two-fold, and the Spirit Bomb, a large ball of genki formed from the energy of a certain number of beings.

Her overall base power also grew by leaps and bounds, surpassing any gains she had made before. She was humble enough to admit that her pregnancy and her lack of training after that had made her rusty, but now she felt better than she had in years. And so, time passed by, and eventually, the time of the saiyan's arrival neared.

Goka sat and listened as King Kai gave one final reminder of how Kaio-ken and the SPirit bomb worked, and the kai then said,

"I'm afraid we don't have enough time left to put the final touches on your training. The saiyans should arrive on Earth in around 24 hours."

Goka nodded seriously upon hearing this, but King Kai's eyes then suddenly widened as he screamed and yelled,

"WHAT HAVE I DONE?!"

Goka asked what King Kai was talking about, and the kai replied,

"Um…so, uh…I may have forgotten to calculate how long it'll take you to get back home."

Goka's eyes widened in shock and horror as she responded,

"Y-You mean you can't just FLY me to Earth?! I have to go down Snake Way again?! B-But it took me 6 months to get here!!!"

"At your current speed you'll make it in 2 days! I'll tell Kami to pick you up!"

"But that's still a day late!!! Earth will be destroyed!!!"

"Hey, quit crying! Don't you think I feel bad for this?! We have to tell your Earth friends to revive you now!!!"

Goka nodded and grabbed onto King Kai's back, contacting Master Roshi and telling him about their predicament, asking them to bring her back. The old man agreed, and along with Bulma and Oolong he summoned Shenron and asked for Goka to be revived. The wish was granted, and as Shenron flew off, the halo on Goka's head vanished. Goka cheered at this, and King Kai quickly reminded her,

"Ok, there's no time to lose!"

Goka nodded at this and set off, zooming across Snake Way at unimaginable speeds. She mentally proclaimed,

'Gohan-Chan…everyone…please hold on for me!"

Meanwhile, the saiyan spacepods were rushing towards Earth. The leader, Prince Vegeta, was sleeping soundly in cryosleep. Despite this, his thoughts were on 2 specific things: The dragon balls and Kakarotta. With the Dragon Balls, he could live and fight forever. A true paradise for saiyans. He could even overthrow Frieza and become the new emperor of the universe.

And Kakarotta…she may be a low class, but at the same time she was the only female saiyan left alive, so she was his best chance at repopulating the saiyan race without having to resort to creating half-breeds that could threaten his position at the top. She would be his. That, he knew for sure.

Author's note: One last time, I am so sorry for this story not changing anything major. But that trend should hopefully be ending as we move on to the Vegeta and Nappa fight. Vegeta's inner monolouge should be a hint as to how that will go...
