Chapter 1: Chapter 1

Notes:

Teen right now, could be bumped up to Mature later

It has been a few months since the 28th World Martial Arts Tournament and the Son house has been lively ever since. Goku promised to train Uub after their fight which lead to the young boy living with the Son family for a bit. Although he struggled at first, as most people learning about Ki for the first time, Uub was coming along nicely.

“Okay, let’s have a sparring match to see how far you’ve come.” Goku announced. Uub has sparred with Goku before but recently it was always against Goten. “Goten,” Goku grinned to his youngest son, “You can use Ki blasts this match!”

Uub felt a nervous aura shroud him as both Goku and Goten had this spark in their eye. “G-Goku, are you sure I can handle this?” Uub pitched to his mentor.

“Of course! Now,” Goku jumped back, “BEGIN!”

Uub quickly threw his arms up in a defensive cross formation. Goten chuckled as dashed towards his opponent with a blue orb of ki in his right hand. Uub braced himself as Goten became an Afterimage rushing through him. “Ah!” The young boy cried out as Goten was above him now.

Goten tossed the Ki blast at Uub, but Uub had thrown his hands up to stop the blast from hitting him. Goku smiled as his student was doing beyond what his son was expecting. “This is why we get up early every morning for training!” Goku laughed as Uub went in the offensive against Goten. The teen Saiyan was blocking every punch and kick, but he knew his father was right about the slacking off.

“I-its not that I don’t want to,” Goten was beginning to lose balance against Uub’s frenzy of attacks, “I was doing raids with Marron last night!”

“Huh? So that’s what you guys call it…” Goku scratched his chin, “Well okay, but don’t tell your mother about it.”

“THAT’S NOT WHAT I MEANT!” Goten yelled at Goku giving Uub his opening.

Uub threw everything he had into his punch right into Goten’s stomach. He followed up with a low sweeping kick but Goten was able to pogo over it on one foot. Uub let out a yell and a forceful Kiai Wave all around. Goku called the point as Goten landed on his butt grumbling.

“I-I won?” Uub looked both happy and confused as this was the first round he ever won against Goten.

“No!” Goten protested, “You cheated!” He pointed his finger on Goku’s nose accusatory. “We are going again!”

“Is that what you tell Marron?”

Goten’s face burned bright red as Goku burst into a fit of laughter. Uub chuckled nervously as this was not the first time…

Goten got into a sparring stance against Goku, which almost mirrored Goten’s exactly. Uub began to take a step back before stepping on a twig starting the match.

Goten and Goku both vanished towards each other just slightly above the ground. When they came back in view for Uub they were both in their Super Saiyan forms. Their aura lashed around each other and began to kick up the wind around the area.

“Y-You said those things on purpose so I would fight you, didn’t you?” Goten snarled at his father who just chuckled in response. Ever since the two of them started training for the 28th World Tournament Goku has started poking his opponents in irritating ways. Goten was so easy when he started to stare and crush on girls. Uub was a little harder during their match, but Goku got exactly what he wanted.

Goten kicked off of Goku before he dropped an axe kick down onto Goku’s shoulder. Goku flared his aura to absorb the blow preparing an attack of his own. “Kame…” Goten flew back as fast as he could as a blue orb was forming in Goku’s right hand.

On the sideline Uub sat in bewilderment as Goku wasn’t holding back against his own son. Goten didn’t need Goku to hold back though. He can handle his own, “DIE DIE MISSILE BARRAGE!” Goten shouted to the skies as Goku dispersed his Kamehameha, ready to dodge Goten’s rain of Ki blasts. Before the older Super Saiyan knew it, Goten was charging towards him at a blinding speed. Instead of the barrage of Ki blasts, Goten used Goku’s knowledge of his moves against the older Super Saiyan.

“Oh, trying to catch me off guard are we?”  Goku dipped in and out of Goten’s punches as he swatted away the kicks. The teen Super Saiyan smirked at Goku as he backflipped into the air putting his hands in position for a Kamehameha. Goku formed the same stance but still a little unsure as the last time Goten threw him for a loop.

“Kamehameha!” Goten shouted and fired a quick beam of blue ki at his father. Goku retaliated with his own Kamehameha but went Super Saiyan 2 for an extra kick, completely blasting Goten away.

“Point for Grandpa!” A high pitched voiced echoed. Pan came flying down from the direction of the Son House. She was dressed up pretty fancy for just a visit Goten though to himself as he brushed the dirt off of his clothes. “Grandpa! Grandma said you and Uncle have get ready. We’re already going to be late.”

“Late? For what-“ Goten questioned before Goku cut him off.

“BULMA’S GONNA KILL ME!”

“Oh right, Bulma’s party.” Both father and son began to run towards the house as Pan laughed in utter delight. Uub tried to follow behind them, but he was still too slow to keep up.

Chi-Chi was at the front door with an annoyed scowl on her face as Gohan and Videl were behind her chuckling to themselves. “What’s so funny, honey?” Videl stiffened, still, at Chi-Chi’s words as Gohan fumbled on his like a student getting caught talking.

“U-Uh… just wondering why you trusted Goten to speed things along with Dad and Uub, is all.” Gohan shifted the blame to his younger brother as fast as he could. Like a good older brother should. Or at least that’s what he told himself.

“I know, I know.” Chi-Chi sighed to herself. Goten was just like his father in so many ways. He was the care freest teen she’s ever seen since Goku.

Just as soon as Gohan mentioned him, Goten was running towards the house. “I got him!” The smile along the younger Son brother was both innocent with a devious twist. Goten was covered in dirt and rips littered his clothes as he swiftly squeezed by everyone. Not far behind was Goku and Uub trying to catch a flying Pan as if she were a butterfly.

“Goku! Stop playing around or we’ll be late!”

“Aw, c’mon Chi-Chi. How could you tell a grandfather not to play with his innocent granddaughter!” Goku clenched his heart, “the horror…”

Chi-Chi rolled her eyes and caught Pan, “We’re leaving now! No lollygagging!” Gohan and Videl followed Chi-Chi and Pan as they entered the hover car. Goku nodded and ushered Uub towards the bathroom.

“Goku...?”

“Don’t worry,” Goku saw Uub was worried that they were left behind, “We’ll use Instant Transmission!”

“O-Okay…”

“I’ll use Instant Transmission. Goten still getting the basics down.”

“Okay!”

On a far off planet, beyond any mortal star, something was about to awaken. A tall, slender man in purple robes began to walk into a cave on this weirdly shaped planet. He had pale blue skin and the purest of white hair and a blue halo around his neck. “Ah, it is about time for-“

Off in the distance a glowing hourglass in a light purple sphere explodes. A groggy groan can be heard, “Five more minutes…”

The white haired man chuckled, “You always say that, My Lord.” Then another hourglass explodes leading to another bigger explosion. “Maybe a serenade will help you wake up?” The white haired man began to warm up his vocal chords before a bipedal, purple cat man jump up. He was wearing a cotton nightgown and a matching nightcap.

“I’m up, I’m up.”

“So you are Lord Beerus .”

In the Land of the Kais there was a pressure that covered Kabito Kai and Old Kai. “Oh no…”

“Mhmm,” Old Kai confirmed as he flipped through his magazine, “We cannot let them find out about one another. Or about our previous situation.” He was referring to being freed from the Z Sword during the Majin Buu incident.

“I-Is that a problem?!?!” Kabito Kai went into a full panic.

“Well it doesn’t seem like it, He did wake up after all.”

“R-Right, I’ll contact the North Kai right away.” Kabito Kai took a seat a few yards away from Old Kai’s flipping. He was trying to keep calm but there was a chance that Goku was training on King Kai’s planet. A moment or two passed before Kabito Kai was able to connect to King Kai.

A nasally voice echoed in Kabito Kai’s head, “ Uh, Hello? ”

“Hello, North Kai, it is the Supreme Kai. I think we have a problem…”

The Party at Capsule Corp was in full swing. There was the biggest bounce house, and the pool was a glittery pink. Pan was off playing with Bulma and Vegeta’s daughter, Bulla, while Chi-Chi, Gohan, and Videl were catching up with the adults. “So, Goku’s got Goten pulling the same tricks now, huh?” Bulma laughed as Chi-Chi rolled her eyes.

“Yeah, I had a little hope once the same hair faded so would the similarities, but Goten’s just as-“

“Flow-y,” Krillin chimed in.

“Boneheaded,” 18 corrected.

“They’re just a little goofy, plus it sends Pan over the moon when they play with her.” Videl corrected.

“T-They didn’t actually take her to the moon right? You can tell- You have to tell me if she went to the moon.” Gohan was starting to get flustered.

“And Gohan’s cut off.” Goten replied with a devilish grin on his face. Everyone froze like statues. “What? Its not smart to bag on someone when they aren’t there. Oh is that a hot dog stand?”

Chi-Chi rubbed her forehead with a sigh, “He’s doing it on purpose. He always does this.” Goten’s laugh could be heard from a few feet away.

Goku joined everyone as Goten walked off ready to party. Goten showed up in a somewhat nice outfit, while Goku was in his iconic orange gi. “So who’s ready to party? Bulma which birthday is this?”

“Five, Kakarot.” Vegeta’s bite aimed right at Goku.

“Yikes, using the Dragon Balls a little too much if you ask me…”

“ITS BULLA’S BIRTHDAY!” Bulma snapped while Krillin and Yamcha laughed alongside Goku. This was the most fun the Z Fighters have had in a long time. So that means…

“ G-Goku, are you there? ”

“Huh? King Kai?” Everyone stopped laughing as they listened for King Kai.

“ U-Uh, Yes. Right away. Goku, I think there is someone you should meet. Even though it is a huge mistake… ” the last part King Kai tried to whisper, “ Oh u-uh because he’s at a family function is all. He would love to. Goku, please hurry and get here!”

Goku agreed and getting ready to use his Instant Transmission when Pan landed in front of him, “Grandpa where are you going?”

“Oh, no where fun sweetie. Just gotta run a errand and I’ll be back in a few!”

“Okay! You promise to play in the bouncy house?”

“Of course!” And with that Goku Instant Transmission’d his way to King Kai.

Chapter 2

King Kai was running back and forth with different types of snacks from all over the Universe for Beerus and Whis. “H-Here you go, Y-Your Lordship. LORDSHIPS!” Beerus looked at each delight in an almost disgust. This isn’t what he wanted. He was told, SPECIFICALLY, that North Kai had connections to incredible fighters. Sure he divulged in delicious cuisine but this was more important.

“North Kai, as I seem to remember you’re planet used to be… bigger?”

King Kai yelped as he tried to keep his guests happy, “Well there was a few hiccups over the years.”

“I’m surprised you didn’t go bigger.” Whis commented on the planet while King Kai tried to explain why he keeps it this way.

“Well with all the training and teaching I’ve been doing over the years it was just more convenient to keep it cozy.”

“Oh, so you are training mortals? That’s odd.” Whis chuckled. Beerus rolled his eyes at the mere thought of a strong mortal.

“Yes, it started with this Saiyan. He’s very strong and hasn’t stopped. There were a few impressive Humans too, but-“

“Saiyan? Connected to the Super Saiyan God?”

“Uh, Super Saiyan God? I’ve heard of Super Saiyan, but nothing about a God Super Saiyan.”

“Hmmm… that Fish was wrong after all, Whis.”

“Maybe, North Kai what is the name of this Super Saiyan? Could he know?”

That’s when Goku’s name finally popped up. Beerus started to get antsy. Whis put a hand on Beerus’s shoulder before the God’s aura began to disintegrate the small planet beneath them. As if it was on cue, Goku had appeared between King Kai and Beerus.

“Yo!”

King Kai slapped Goku from behind, “You don’t just say “Yo!” to a God! Let alone a God of Destruction!!!” King Kai then forced Goku into a bow alongside himself, “We would like to Apologize, Lord Beerus!”

“…”

Beerus kept his eye on Goku. The Saiyan held a certain aura about him. King Kai began to sweat as it wasn’t every day the God of Destruction was awake, let alone visit a lower Kai like himself.

“Oh wow! You must be strong!” Goku popped up from King Kai’s grip, “I can barely get a read on you.”

“Hah! Lower beings like yourself could never touch me. I am looking for a Super Saiyan God.”

“Super Saiyan… God?” Goku scratched his cheek. Is that what others called Super Saiyans? “I haven’t heard about Super Saiyan God, but I do know of Super Saiyans.”

“Hmm…?”

Goku’s energy spiked peaking Beerus’s interest. “This is a Super Saiyan.” The Saiyan’s eyes flashed green and his hair shot up into the iconic golden spikes. Beerus didn’t move an inch as Goku smirked, “Are you ready for next stage?” Goku began to charge his energy even more, his hair spiking even more as crackles of electricity danced around him. 

Beerus smiled as the Saiyan could indeed be strong enough as the North Kai theorized. The conversation before Goku’s arrival wasn’t concrete enough, but here Goku was keeping the God’s attention. “This is an Ascended Super Saiyan, or Super Saiyan 2. It’s a lot easier to remember.” Beerus’s smile started to frown as it still wasn’t enough. “And this is a Super Saiyan that is further beyond!”

Goku started screaming as his power started to shake the tiny planet and even began to crack the walls of King Kai’s house. His hair started growing in wild spikes down his back. Goku’s aura was lashing around like a storm, as if it was completely tangible. Beerus’s frown became a grin as Goku’s power wasn’t slowing down either. “This is Super Saiyan 3.”

Goku’s body stood tall, hair twitching like a cape in the wind. His power wasn’t unmatched, but Beerus was finally starting to see some potential. The God held up his hand waiting for the Saiyan to attack, “Come at me.”

Back at Capsule Corp the party continued on without Goku around. Chi-Chi rolled her eyes at Krillin’s worry, but it was only in front of Pan as to not worry her granddaughter. “It’ll be fine sweetie, go play with Bulla.”

“Okay!”

Without a beat Pan flew off towards Bulla as Gohan chased her. He was shouting about her not flying everywhere. Bulma nudged Vegeta, “Can you sense him?”

“What? No,” the Prince paused, “He did go to the other world after all.”

Off in the distance you could hear Bulla and Pan squealing in delight at the game stations that were set up. Goten and Trunks were going head to head as stand-ins for the young girls. Marron was cheering behind them when the two boys stopped just before one of them was about win. A loud shriek came from Bulma while Vegeta was frozen is a panicked bow.

Before Vegeta stood Beerus and Whis, “Hmmmm… are you sure this is the place that Goku spoke of?” With the mention of Goku’s name everyone’s eyes locked on to Beerus.

“Yes, Lord Beerus. This here is Prince Vegeta after all.”

“Prince? Is Goku pulling my leg? Cause this man doesn’t scream Saiyan at all…”

“Well neither did Goku.”

“True,” Beerus tapped his chin before he was assaulted by an array of aromas. Burgers, Hot Dogs, Candies, Cakes, anything you could think of Bulma had bought for Bulla’s birthday party.

“L-Lord Beerus?!?” Vegeta nearly jumped out of his skin at the sight of the God before them. Trunks and Goten began snickering in the background as Vegeta was being overly respectful, but in a cartoonish way.

Beerus waved off Vegeta as he started to look for the scents of food all around, “Will I have any more luck with you, Prince?”

“Luck with what, Lord Beerus?”

“Super Saiyan God.” Beerus’s tone was very serious but he was still distracted by the buffet before him. He pointed to almost everything as the servers filled up multiple plates for the God.

Bulma was surprisingly quiet with the random crashers. “Excuse me, Vegeta,” her tone wasn’t any better than Beerus’s. This was going to be a long day for Vegeta. “Would you mind introducing your Friend? Something that none of us knew you could make by the way.” Vegeta glared at Bulma’s snide comment before making quick, but respectful introductions.

“This is Lord Beerus, the God of Destruction. Someone we do not need upset.” Beerus waved it off with a nonchalant ‘Mmm’ while he proceeded to exchange delicious delights with Whis.

“Well, nice to meet you Beerus! It is so rare for Vegeta to invite friends without my knowing. You know he didn’t even invite his own brother to Bulla’s Birthday!”

“Well to be fair,” Whis interjected, “Lord Beerus wasn’t invited either!” The God’s Servant laughed delightfully after biting into a corndog. Beerus started to become ticked off at Whis’s comments. A purple aura surrounded the God as the food and his plate began to disintegrate. Whis seeming ignored the threat to his very being as he continued to pick at different foods around his plate. “Oh, Lord Beerus, you have to try these… What’re these called again?”

The man working the dessert cart was sweating in fright, “I-It’s chocolate pudding. We have vanilla as well…”

“Ah right, thank you. It is a pudding! Just heavenly!” This snapped Beerus out of his growing anger. He walked over to the stand where Buu was placing all the puddings on a plate. “Excuse me, uh, Pink Blob. May I try one of those puddings?”

“No.”

“Well surely you can part with one?”

Buu stuck his tongue out at Beerus and was on his way. This got Vegeta involved begging the Pink Majin to give up one pudding. “Buu. Said. NO!” A loud tea whistle started to screech as the air pressure rose with Buu’s Ki.

All the commotion brought Bulma over to Buu. “Knock it off!” She bellowed with a hard yank of Buu’s antenna. This caused Buu to return to normal, but Beerus was still angry. It was too late now. “Sorry, Beerus, I have more pudding coming from the kitch-“

“No.” Beerus copied Buu’s response.

“Excuse me? I’ll have you know you are a guest and have to be patient.” Beerus just glared at the blue haired woman before back handing her away. Bulma soared across the yard before Trunks and Goten vanished behind her and caught her safely.

A huge surge of energy exploded as Vegeta’s eyes went white with rage, “THAT’S. MY. BULMA!!!” Lightning flickered around where Vegeta once stood as the crazed Super Saiyan was already connecting a punch with the dead God that slapped his wife. Beerus had easily caught that first punch. Vegeta didn’t stop at one punch though. His aura exploded the dress shirt Bulma had made him wear, but his training shirt was revealed to be on underneath.

“Oh ho ho… Not a Super Saiyan God, but this Super Saiyan has potential!” Beerus’s tone still sounded angry but there was excitement behind it too.

“Lord Beerus, I do believe this could be a Super Saiyan Two…?” Whis chimed in as Vegeta’s punches started to land anywhere they could. Beerus tanked them easily as he was brought up into the air by the barrage of attacks. The combination ended with Vegeta cupping his hands over one another before holding them back charging a purple orb of ki with the same purple energy cackling around him.

“GLAICK GUN!” Vegeta threw his hands forward as Beerus and himself were engulfed in an orb of ki from the attack. Trunks stood in front of his his mother, as Goten went over to Pan, Bulla, and Marron. Gohan, Krillin, and 18 blocked the others while Buu protected Hercule. Whis was watching closely as another Saiyan pushed towards the realm of the Gods. “FIRE!” Vegeta shot his Galick Gun towards the sky in an attempt to defeat Beerus.

As the dust settled from Vegeta’s attack everyone heard a slow clapping. “Now it’s my turn.” Beerus did a short flip to use his tail to knock Vegeta to the ground. He then vanished in front of Gohan, “How promising are you?” Gohan flared his Mystic Aura before landing a left hook to the God’s face. Krillin and 18 followed up with a tag team assault of high and low. Krillin threw a jab to Beerus’s right cheek as 18 preformed a leg sweep from the left. All three fighters were blown back as Beerus roared.

Goten and Trunks both turned Super Saiyan before charging in. Trunks attacked first with a roundhouse kick while Goten followed up with his own lunging attack. Beerus saw right through them as he grabbed Trunks’s ankle and tossed him into straight into Goten.

Piccolo came charging in after the two teens were tossed to the side. Beerus wasn’t interested in a Namekian God, but he was impressed with this Namekian who was indeed skilled. Piccolo was using a combination punches and ki blasts that Beerus dodged easily, or maybe he was missing on purpose to land the punches? The God couldn’t care less either way. With a flick of his tail Piccolo was sent flying back, unable to keep up with the God’s speed. The Nemakian grunted before collapsing his arms together, “HELLZONE GRENADE!” The ki blasts that “missed” Beerus were now raining onto him.

“Clever trick,” Beerus rose from the debris, “Now I am finished playing.” His aura was crushing but not the same way the Z Fighters would power up. It was as if Beerus was physically pushing them down. The air was getting hard for everyone to breathe, let alone stand up to the cat. That’s when the sky turned black as a golden light cascaded from behind the fight. The light shot to the sky before it start spiraling eventually turning into a dragon.

“You have summoned the Eternal Dragon, Shenron! State your wish…”
