Piccolo stared at the sleeping boy who had managed to soften him up. How could such a crybaby child have managed to worm his way into his heart?

Gohan was sleeping soundly throughout Piccolo’s thoughts. He had no idea that Piccolo was watching him. He had no idea Piccolo was anywhere near him. For weeks now, the young boy had been deposited on an island, far from his family. He’d been all alone except when Piccolo was training him. It was what his training was. To live in the woods without any help from anyone. Unbeknownst to him, though, the soft spot Piccolo had for him made Piccolo help out just a small bit. Leaving food where he could find it was his way of helping. The boy was now quite used to living in the woods now, though. He could hunt, fish, make fires and knew, now, how to sleep downwind. Also, thanks to the Namekian’s intense training, he knew how to control his power enough to defend himself.

He could fly, shoot Ki-blasts, had awesome speed, sense energy signals, identify different ones, mask his own signal and was extremely strong. The best part was Piccolo had taught him a special move called, “Masenko.” He could pretty much hold his own again Piccolo now, too. Piccolo was still obviously stronger and more experienced, but Gohan was catching up pretty quickly.

Piccolo sat down, smiling. The boy had learnt fast. He had to give Goku that. He’d fathered a fine young boy. Speaking of Goku . . . he looked up. He could feel Goku’s energy coming closer. That didn’t seem good. In moments, the tall Namekian was facing Goku. “What’s going on?”

“I’m not entirely sure, Piccolo. Someone strange landed and the Snake creature is teaming up with him. He seems to know him.”

A small moan was heard from the sleeping boy and the Namekian motioned Goku far enough away so as to not awaken the boy. He’d had a tough day. “What do you mean?”

“A space pod landed and some strange man came out. He has really long black hair and is tall and muscular. He seems to have a lot of power and he wears a strange outfit.” He looked at his son. “How is he doing?”

“He’s come a very long way, Goku, I have to say that. You were right about the boy. He has intense powers. I don’t think I’ll be able to unlock all of his powers before they attack.”

“How far has he come so far?”

“His powers are above 1,000.”

His eyes widened. “Above 1,000?”

“Yes. At least 1,300.”

“That’s very strong for a child.”

“Yes. He’s stronger than both of us.”

Goku looked over at his son, who was peacefully sleeping at the moment. “He’ll make a great warrior.”

Piccolo nodded. “He will.”

“So have we got a plan for the intruder?”

“I’ve been thinking about that, actually . . . and, yes, I think we have a plan.”

The Life Pod carrying the Saiyan Raditsu crashed to Earth and he hopped out of the pod easily. "Prince Vegeta, I made it."

"It is about time," the Prince's arrogant voice sneered. "Now find Kakarot and bring him back."

"Yes, Sire." His eyes narrowed when a small, elderly man walked up to him. "What do you want?"

"Ahhh, Masssterr Raaditssu. You've arrivved in one piece. Howwww wasss yourr trip?"

"Who are you?"

"I am the Namelesssss One, hhere tooo greet myyy masssster and the Maajesssty."

"How do you know my name?"

"I've beeen waaaitting forr youuu. Youu arre herrre for the one called Kakarotttt, arrre youuu not?"

He nodded.

"Thenn lett meee beee offff asssissstence to you. Hhee issss toooo sssoffftt to beeee offff any hhelp tooo youu. Hisss sson, hhoweverrr, isss young enoughhh tooo mold intooo anythinggg youuu waant. Kakarotttt forgot whaaat hhee wassss longggg agooo. Hhee issss usssselessss to youuu noww. Jussst taake hissss sson."

"How do I know any of what you say is true?"

"Whhyy would I lie tooo youuu?"

"I don't know, but I'm sure there are plenty of reasons."

"I waaant the fammmilllly torrrn apaaarrrt. I would nottt hinderrr youu in thaaat perssssuit."

"Why not?"

"I waaant thisss planet forrr myssself. Youuu worrrk forrrr Furiza, dooo youuu nottt?"

He held his head higher, not answering him.

"I contacttttedd himmm mmmysself, petitioning to havvve thisss plaanett to myssself. Myyy deal wassss thaaat I would hellp youuu taaake the chilld and kill the man and hisss comrads and I could do whateverrr I wissshed to the planet. I gavvve him mannny thingssss to gett whaaat I waanted. Youuu caaan contaact himm yourssself if youuu don'tttt believe meeee."

He decided he would. "Prince Vejita, there is a man here saying that he made a deal with Lord Furiza."

"What is his name?"

"What's your name, old man?"

"Firrsssst figghht myyy powerrr. Feeeeell myy powerrr. Ifff you caan maaake mee showww myyy true ssssellfff to youuu, I willll do anythinggg youuu waant."

Raditz let his comment sit for a moment, then he felt for the power he was speaking about, fighting it when he found it. In a few short minutes, a Snake Demon stood before him. "What are you trying to pull, Snake?"

"Ahhhh, youuuu sssseeeee meee. My name issss Cotouuu."

"He says his name is Cotou."

"He is a Snake Demon?"

"Yes."

"He's correct. He made a deal with Lord Furiza. His orders are to play along with the old man . . . until he is useless to us."

Raditsu smiled. "Yes, of course. Cotou, you have a deal. Take me to the child and help me get him, you can have the planet."

A sickly grin crossed the Demon's face. "Yessssss, I thoughttt sssooo. Followww meeee." He slithered off, toward the Son's household. "Here issss the plann, Massster Raditz. I am to dissstractttt the famillly and youuuuu grab the sssonn. Maake it fassst."

"Or course!" Annoyed by the order, he frowned. Until he was useless, Raditz would have to follow his orders, though.

"Ssssstay outtt of ssssighttt untttil youuu hearrr mee callll youuu. In a few, ssshoorrrt yearssss, therrre willl beeee otherrr chillldrennn, both of themmm willll beee ssstrong. Comme backkk in ten yearsssss to getttt the firsssst one and in elevennn toooo gettt the sssecondd one. The firssst one'sss naaame willll beee Trunkssss, the ssseconddd one is Gotennn. The oneee youuuu haaave nowww is Gohaaaannn. I musssssst gooo."

Goku, Gohan, Piccolo and the others were waiting when Cotou arrived. This shocked the Snake Demon greatly. “What are you all doing here?”

“We know about you, Snake Demon, so drop the disguise.”

Cotou did drop the disguise with a grin. “So you think you know it, do you? How interesting.”

“You can think our little friend here.” Piccolo set his hand atop Gohan’s head.

Gohan looked up, smiling.

Cotou glared at the child. Thank God he was getting rid of him! “That’s okay that you know. I was about to tell you anyway.”

“Oh?”

“But now I can cut time and say . . . freeeeeeze!” For some strange reason, everyone did freeze. “Haaaah. The sssspell worked. You’ll beeeee frozennnn for thirtyyyy minutesssss. It’ll onlyyyyyy work on youuuu twice, but it sstill workss.” He looked back. “Raditsssu! Commmme!”

The confused and angry Z-Warriors watched as the tall, black-haired Raditsu came up. “Now what?”

“Grab theeeee kid.”

“NO!” Goku and Piccolo yelled at the same time, trying to fight the spell. “Get away from him!”

Raditsu came up and hefted the frozen child up. “This is him?”

“Yesssssssss.”

“How old is he?”

“He’s fourrrr.”

“He’s four years old?”

“WHAT!?” Vejita-sama screamed. “ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? I am not a babysitter!”

Gohan was struggling against the spell, trying to free himself. It wasn’t working.

“Dammit, I can’t believe we’re kidnapping a four-year-old! Vejita-sama, does Lord Furiza know?”

“I don’t know. I’ll ask him.”

Raditsu reached the space pod and threw the kid in there. “Stay in there, kid.” He pulled out another capsule and--voila!--he had another space pod. Right as he was about to get into the space pod, Goku and Piccolo landed behind him.

“Give Gohan back now!”

He turned slowly, smiling. “It seems the Snake Demon over-estimated his control over you, but that’s okay. I’m stronger than the two of you are.”

Piccolo smirked. “That’s funny, coming from someone who could be beaten up by a kid.”

Raditsu stared at him. “Are you kidding me!? That kid is weak!”

“Too bad ‘that kid’ is masking his true power. . . .” he said.

“You can’t ‘mask’ power!”

“He is.”

“Sure, like I’ll believe that!” He launched at Goku quickly, hitting him as hard as he could in the stomach. “I can’t believe you don’t know what you are, Kakarot. Why don’t you join us? You could be great.”

“’Kakarot?’”

Raditsu explained everything. “So, join me.”

“Never.”

Raditsu hit him again and the fight began.

Panicking, Gohan watched the fight escalating. He was still paralyzed and he couldn’t help his daddy and his best friend! What could he possibly do!? He heard his father screaming in agony, heard Piccolo trying to help, heard Raditsu laughing maniacally--and lost it. Pain flooded through his body. It felt as though his blood was molten lava. He screamed, fighting the pain. Within moments, the space pod disintegrated.

All eyes had turned to see the small boy, levitating. Raditsu’s eyes were huge, his scouter beeping as it read his power. “Vejita-sama,” he whispered.

“What?”

“The boy’s power is at 10,000 and still going up.” The scouter beeped. “It just stopped at 15,000.”

“What?! You lie!”

“I’m not lying, Vejita-sama.”

Gohan’s black, fiery eyes landed on Raditsu. “Leave them alone!” He took off after Raditsu, anger pulsing through him. Goku and Piccolo stared at the boy. They knew he was strong, but they never thought he had progressed to this level! He hit Raditsu, hard, jumped back and called, “Masenko-HA!!!!!!!”

His uncle never even got the chance to block the attack. When the blast receded, there was nothing left of the Saiyan.

The two adults stared at the four-year-old sitting on the ground. All three were dazed.

Cotou took this chance to appear once more. His plan was working perfectly! “Freeeze!” he yelled.

The two adults turned half-way around before his spell hit them and they couldn’t move. Gohan’s body trembled as he fought the spell.

That boy had more power even Cotou thought he had, but that was okay. He had wanted Raditsu to die, anyway. He grabbed the boy, threw him into the machine and set it off. “Goodbye, Gohaaan!” he said and was gone.
