Family Ties Stretched and Strained

Notes: This is part of a sequence that shows Radditzu and Tomique's first time while she was human. Before he even took her as a mate, he sought to protect her from Nappa claiming her. Jeannie had hoped to get rid of Tomique by convincing Nappa that Atomique wanted him. So Nappa tried to rape Tomique till Radditzu stepped in. The only way for Tomique to survive was to give herself to Radditzu. Bejita, the Z fighters and her friends would not be able to get there in time because Nappa was watching. Now we continue the flashback:

Last time:

In the lab, Radditzu smirked and reached up on his upper arm to pull off one of the matching arm rings then latched it around her upper thigh.

"Hey, what's THAT for?"

"Interesting how it fits you there so well," he said.

"This is yours, you dummy I can't take this�"

"Don't refuse a Saiyan's gift," he growled mock threateningly. He reached around her upper right arm, and fitted another matching armlet that he had pulled out of his boot somewhere. Now he only wore the band on his right thigh, and upper right arm.

"I'm not even going to ask," she said, fingering the strange metal, which gleamed like copper with a shiny luster. "But if it makes you happy I'll wear them�"

"So you don't forget who you belong� I mean who protects you," he caught himself.

"IS there something you're not telling me, huh?" she asked, grabbing his cheek. "You biting me HERE where I�m not supposed to bite you, and now you're giving me jewelry�"

"None of your concern. It's meaningless to a human," he snorted.

"Hey buddy�" she snorted. "Don't give me THAT attitude�"

"Fine if you don't want them," he snorted.

"I want them damn it. I'm sorry I opened my mouth, sheesh!" she grumbled. "It's just that it's been ages since a guy's given me jewelry that's it!"

"Ah, I see," Radditzu said.

"Huh?" she asked.

"Nothing, don't concern yourself," he mumbled, rubbing a hand over her body and wishing that he could plant his seed in this human. Her body was built for child bearing. Suddenly Radditzu tensed, sitting up. He let out a loud snarl, and blocked her body with his.

"What?"

"Get dressed, we're not alone," he said, pulling away and grabbing his armor. She quickly struggled into her clothes, and Radditzu rushed to the door, only wearing the bottoms of his armor. He tugged on his wrist guards, and stood just outside the door, raising his palm with ki flickering.

"Who is it?" Atomique asked, struggling to slide back into her clothes.

"Behind me," Radditzu hissed, reaching out and grabbing her by the front of her bra. He swung her round and hugged her to his hip, holding his other hand out to slam whoever it was with a bolt of energy.

"This is ridiculous, who the HELL is it now?" she griped.

"Shh, quiet," he hissed. Atomique groused silently about Saiyan warriors, unsated desires, and other things when the door blew open. Radditzu hurled a blast forwards with a shout, grabbing Tomique's lab coat to wrap around her.

Slowly the figure covered in masonry staggered to their feet. They glanced at Radditzu glaring down at them with his hand overtop blazing with energy. "Whoa, hey WAIT!" Yamucha gasped.

"What the HELL are you doing in here, trespasser! This area's OFF limits!" Radditzu growled. "You have FIVE minutes before I make you ROT in hell for�"

"Radditzu, calm down� what are you doing here?" Tomique gasped while Raditz shielded her with his body.

"Um...I was looking for Bulma� but I kinda� heheh got lost, and then someone�"

"You stupid idiot!" yelled Vegeta's voice. "What in the hell is that loser doing here?"

"I only hit him with a low grade blast," Jeannie said angrily.

"You'd better get out NOW," said Tomique.

"Hey wait� you'� you're� holy SHIT!"

"Leave now, Yamucha� he won't hurt you�"

"But� but�" Yamucha stammered.

"Shit," Radditzu grumbled.

"Let me, and hold your breath," she said, raising her hand. Chloroform filled the room, knocking Yamucha out in seconds.

Radditzu put her down and slammed the door shut again. Luckily it was reinforced with wood. He then turned back to her and tried to help her button the rest of her outfit up with his large hands moving clumsily over the fastenings. "Fricking ningen clothes� too many damn buttons�"

"Hey, I can dress myself, you," she snorted, slapping his hands away. For a minute she staggered on her shaky legs, feeling the stickiness of Raditz's excitement still coating the inside of her body. Grumbling in Saiyan, the warrior was gathering the other pieces of his armor including his scouter and putting them back on. Vegeta kicked the door open, glaring down at Yamucha.

"Great, that's ALL we need� what the hell happened here? Is the female�"

"I knocked him out," said Tomique, straightening up her hair.

"Good. I'm going to have to take this clown back to Bulma, and see if she can sort out this sorry mess. Or else my plans are going down the shithole," Vegeta cursed.

"Speaking of, my lab�" she started, then shut up when Radditzu glanced anxiously at her.

"Sire, this place seems to be dangerous for her to continue her work� is there an alternate," asked Radditzu.

"I'll arrange it. Meantime, take her out of here, and wait for my further orders. I don't want any more problems on my hands. I've sent Jeannie out to guard the Princess so she'll be out of the way. Don't go anywhere without him, because I can't risk any more stupid shit happening to the woman's friends," Vegeta mumbled.

"Thanks," she nodded, inclining her head. Grunting, Vegeta picked up Yamucha and dragged him away. Tomique grumbled staggering till Radditzu caught her.

"Are you incapacitated?" he asked.

"I'm bloody sore," she gasped.

"My apologies," he said quietly, picking her up in his arms.

"Are you going to carry me everywhere for the next day then, you big baboon?" she grumbled. Carefully he carried her back towards his quarters, so she could rest.

****

The phone rang, jolting her out of sleep. Grumbling she reached for the lamp, almost knocking it onto the floor. Bold upright in bed Tomique sat, feeling the bed next to her. Nobody was there, to her sorrow. For a while she could almost swear Paul had been there. Judging from the soreness aching between her legs, she had rough sex with someone.

"I'm coming damn it," she grumbled then realized the ringing was coming from a cell phone at her hip. Tomique grabbed the flip phone, opening it to see Goku's number flashing.

"Hello?"

"Uh hi, are you okay?" said his voice. "You didn't come back for lunch and we got worried�"

"Kuso, I'm sorry Son-kun, I had something to do today at the lab!" she cursed, gathering the blankets around her. She stumbled about Raditz's bachelor quarters, struggling to find something to wear. A few large civilian outfits were neatly folded, and she finally grabbed a pair of black silk boxers that must belong to him. Bulma had argued to Vegeta that his soldiers needed to practice wearing human clothes. So Raditz had adopted a biker look, according to Trunks' suggestions. She grabbed a Harley Davidson T-shirt and threw it on, pulling her legs in to sit Indian style on the bed. Then she got up and rooted through his full sized fridge to look for something to eat.

"Oh that's okay� don't beat yourself up� I was just hoping you were all right. Radz said you'd been� burned� and well�"

"Goku I'm sorry I wasn't there to visit the boys, I hate not being there�"

"Hey, easy there, no biggie," Goku cheerfully said. "I know that it's hard when you got something to do. I should know about getting sidetracked. It's just I figured you might want to come by and eat with us. We're having egg rolls�"

"Does Gohan know about� Nappa and Raditz?" she asked.

"Well, he's pretty much heard rumors from Yamcha� and well�" Goku said, and she heard him twisting the phone cord around his index finger.

"Shimatta, that idiot!" she cursed.

"No it's okay! Relax!" Goku said hastily. "I've got it under control! Gohan knows, but Videl's keeping him in line. They've got this big chemistry test� and they were hoping you could come and�"

"I'll stop by. Tell Fermi and Bohr I'll be there in an hour� oh damn�" she groaned, stumbling about. She landed headlong across the floor.

"Are you okay?"

"I've been� um training," she said quickly.

"You're breathing awfully hard, so it must be something! You practicing your Kamehameha wave? Cause Krillen said you knocked 18 flat on her back�"

"Goku, I feel SILLY shouting thtat!" she groaned.

"Well it WORKS," Goku laughed. "I'm just steaming the rice now. C'mon over and bring your appetite. And don�t' do a guilt trip. It ain't necessary cause your boys know you're a busy woman!"

"Start without me, and I'll have the leftovers�"

"There's plenty� and tell my brother I said hi�" he said. "Bye!"

"Bye," she said, then grumbled as Raditz entered the chamber.

"Are you all right? What in the name of the Legendary are you doing on the floor?" he scolded her.

"Don't start with me, you annoying baboon! It's not me leaving my crap all over the floor!" she grouched.

"Silly female, little wonder you need me to look out for you," he scolded, picking her up effortlessly and sitting her on the bed. "I've brought something to eat�"

"By the way, your little brother says hi and he wants me to come back ASAP for dinner�" she said. "My kids are forgetting what I look like!"

"My apologies for detaining you," he said. "I'll take you back at once�"

"But your Prince told you NOT to leave the compound!" she despaired.

"He told me it was safe as long as I wasn't seen," said Raditz. "Besides, he mentioned that Kakarot had informed the Earth's Special Forces, and that I was fine as long as I came immediately back� and besides I'd like to see where my brother lives�"

"Um, I don't think that's wise�"

"I will NOT hear any further objections. You cannot fly that distance yet, and I'm taking you. End of story," he grunted.

"You're not the boss of me," she grumbled, throwing her cell phone down and reaching for her clothes. Raditz had neatly folded a set of the Chinese robes that Goku had given her, belonging formerly to his grandmother.

"Why do you not wear what the Princess provides?"

"Because I don't like owing people favors," she snorted.

"Wise choice," Raditz said, watching her dress. When she was buckling her china flats, he held out his hand to steady her.

***

"Fucking pain in the ass," she mumbled, brushing his hand away as she leapt up into the air. He shot after her, leaving a long trail of white ki blasting into the atmosphere.

"This way, correct?" he asked. "I can trace his energies�"

"You could ask for directions, but you males never do," she grumbled. Fortunately he was wearing the jeans, boots and leather jacket instead of his armor. All that remained of his Saiyan outfit was the ever-present scouter for detection.

"You know, Goku could teach you how to sense ki without that thing," she said.

"Prince's orders. One may never know when an enemy might strike� and the Princess upgraded it to account for higher battle powers�" Raditz explained. His arm slipped around her waist, pulling her along.

"Hey, what are you�"

"You wanted to get there fast, don't argue," he grunted, surrounding them both with his ki envelope. She shrieked as they rocketed at double her speed through the skies.

"Kami, almost nobody flies THIS fast� except your brother and Ve� I mean the Prince," she said.

"This is nothing. I can outpace most primitive native aircraft on this small world," he bragged.

"No doubt� but can you break the sound barrier?"

"Indeed I can," he laughed, increasing his speed to mach 1. Tomique gasped, clinging to Raditz when he sliced into the atmosphere, causing a faint boom that was muffled by his ki envelope. They shot over farm fields, and high mountains. Within the hour they approached the landscape resembling a Chinese wall scroll.

"Slow down, we're coming up on it� Mt. Paozu," she said, pointing.

"A pleasant environment, with much prey," he said, glancing at the pterodactyls winging their way around the place.

Suddenly out of nowhere, Goku zipped into existence, causing them both to be startled. "What the hell?" Raditz gasped. "Brother, MUST you do that?"

"Um, hi, didn't expect you to come here. Gohan nearly flipped out when he sensed both your kis, and I figured I'd see what it was� and well�" he trailed off.

"Sorry," Tomique said. "But Radz here insisted that he bring me�"

"My apologies brother, to disturb your repast, but you did wish her to return here quickly," he said looking a bit sheepish.

"Well, if you'd like to join us�" Goku said quietly.

"That is not necessary," Raditz said. "I'm not supposed to be out this long. Shall I see you tomorrow, Tomique-c� Tomique-san?"

"Yes, wouldn't miss it. See you tomorrow, bright and early, Radz-kun," she waved. Inclining his head he released her so she could levitated under her own power.

"Bye-bye, and see you soon I hope," Goku waved.

"Till later, Brother," Raditz nodded, then turned to streak away to a small glimmer on the horizon.

"What a shame," Goku said wistfully.

"You're worried about Gohan� right?" she asked.

"He'd throw a fit if he saw Raditz carrying you like that� but we know better. You two are getting to be good friends, huh?" Goku winked at her.

"It's merely professional," she said quickly.

"Then why are you blushing?" he teased her.

"Oh shut up will you?" she snorted as he grabbed her hand and touched his fingers to his forehead. That quick snatching sensation deposited them both in Tomique's room. The sun was going down, and Tomique asked to go right to bed. Goku left her, and slowly closed the door behind her so she could rest.

Next morning, Videl and Gohan were setting the table, while Goten rushed about helping the twins to bring huge pots of food in. Seeing Atomique slowly wandering in yawning, Gohan stopped.

"There you are, we were worried sick! Are you okay?" Gohan asked.

"Settle down I'm fine! Sheesh!" she grumbled.

"Gohan, relax!" said Videl, glaring at him. Fermi and Bohr rushed up to hug their mom as she crouched on one knee. "Good mornign mommy," they chorused.

She glanced at the orange training gi, and laughed, "What the heck is this?"

"Son-kun san and Nissan are going to be training us today," said Fermi.

"And I get to spar with Goten," said Bohr.

"If he can keep me from kicking his butt!" Goten laughed, plunking down his pot of rice.

"Um, hope you don't mind, but they needed some new workout clothes, and well, Goten's old stuff seemed to fit�" Gohan shrugged.

"Sheesh, it's fine, but who's who?" she joked, picking up one of them.

"Green for Fermi, yellow for Bohr," Goten explained. "Cool huh?"

"You BOTH look cool," she laughed, picking either one up and setting them on her hips. She winced in pain because one of them brushed her taped ribs.

"Mommy you got hurt!" they gasped.

"Just a lab accident� I had some help though�"

"That's good," Bohr said. Goku grabbed one of the twins, taking him onto his shoulders to carry him to the table playfully. Fermi slid down and rushed over to pull a chair out for his mom.

"Sit here between us," he urged, as Bohr climbed into the seat next to her. On either side of her the twins sat, flanked by Goten, then Videl, and then Gohan. They all waited for the customary blessings to the ancestors, and then it was time to help each other to the food piled on the circular trivet, and the rice piled on the sideboards. Two huge helpings of rice vanished as father, son, and younger son devoured them. Videl picked bits of rice out of her hair, and glanced at Tomique sympathetically.

"You get used to it after a while," she said.

"C'mon, aren't you gonna eat something? You've hardly touched your food!" Goku protested, showering the front of his blue and orange workout top with rice.

"Sorry, just preoccupied," she said, hoping they wouldn't smell Raditz all over her. Goku sniffed the air oddly and shrugged, as the aroma of food was far more interesting. Carefully she picked up her chopsticks and attacked the food with enthusiasm. More was instantly shoveled onto her plate from Gohan, or his dad.

"You've got a healthy appetite for a change, that's good. Need lots of it to repair all the damage to your body," Goku mumbled through his mouthful of dim sum.

"How did you get hurt exactly? What chemicals were you working with?" Gohan asked.

"I was working with polymerization agents. And the GR blew up," she lied.

"Are you sure?" asked Gohan.

"Does it matter?" Goku interrupted, then winked at her. "She's fine, right? Anyway, you know Bulma would throw a fit if we brought her back HERE when she was hurt�"

"Mommy's fine," said Bohr. "She's an alchemist!"

"She had help, right?" asked Fermi.

"What?" Atomique gasped, spitting out her food all over Goten, who laughed.

"Don't worry, that was funny," he giggled, wiping it off his face and tossing some back.

"Fermi, what did I tell you about reading people's minds without their permission?" Goku said firmly at him. "You're NOT supposed to DO that!"

"Sorry, Son-kun sama!" he apologized. "I won't let it happen again�"

"Kids," Gohan shrugged.

"Wait, they can READ minds?" Videl gasped.

"Oh, only if the person is related to them. Usually they have a good handle on it," Goku said.

"This is just getting weirder and weirder. Just when I think I've got this family figured out�" Videl groaned.

"You don't look so good Sissy, maybe you should have some more kim chee?" asked Goten, shoving some of his vegetables onto her plate.

"Now you KNOW you're supposed to eat what's in front of you!" Gohan groaned.

"I'll eat it if you don't," Goku laughed.

"He'll eat ANYTHING," Goten laughed.

"I'm not surprised," Atomique said, feeling a bit nervous and dizzy.

"Where the heck did you get those bruises?" Gohan asked.

"Where?" she asked.

"Well you're um�"

"Excuse me, I need to lie down," she said, getting up.

"Hey, I got the bathwater going if you gals want to give it a shot," Goku offered. "We'll just clear this stuff off, and you can give us a holler when it's safe to come out�"

"Bath sounds wonderful," she said. "But in the middle of the woods?"

"Who's gonna see you," Videl groaned. "Besides, I don�t' want some dinosaur staring at me alone�"

***

Both girls wandered out wearing robes. Goku had set the water in the enormous cylindrical tub to steaming hot. Unlike most modern homes, they still bathed in a large outdoor hot tub area. While there were showers in the Capsule house, he still insisted on drawing the large bath for both girls when they were there.

"I'm warning you, It's not going to be pretty," Atomique said, reluctantly dropping her robe and sliding into the bathwater.

"Hey, where did you get all those bruises?" Videl gasped. "You got into a fight, didn't you?"

"I� don�t' want to talk about it�"

"Is someone beating on you?" Videl gasped. "Because if there is�"

"Videl, it was Jeannie," said Atomique.

"What? But she's your friend� why�"

"Shh! Goku already knows! Look, Vegeta's taking care of it�"

"Shit, you can't let her punch you around, what the HELL�"

"It's all right, one of the security guards helped me�"

"WHAT security guards? She's�"

"Videl, I was rescued by one of Vegeta's new guards�"

"You mean� Goku's brother?" she asked. Seeing Atomique tense up, she reassured her, "It's okay, Goku told us that his brother is back. Gohan's not exactly thrilled, but as long as they stay at Capsule� you mean�"

"Yes," said Atomique. "He fought Jeannie off, and his friend Nappa rescued us both�"

"Huh, weird names," said Videl. "But what the heck are those bruises from? Jeanie must have really put you through the wringer!"

"Raditz helped me," she whispered. "He used a first aid kit, and tended to me. Then he made sure nobody bothered me�"

"Wow, sounds like quite a guy," Videl teased her. "You said he was Goku's brother?"

"Older brother," said Atomique.

"You like him or something? Cause you're blushing," Videl teased her.

"Come on I am NOT!" Atomique shouted back.

"Uh huh, you got it bad. I guess the men in this family have that effect on us," Videl said, scrubbing her hair.

"Please don't tell anyone!" Atomique begged.

"Your secret's safe with me," Videl grinned. "I twist Gohan's arm, not yours. You really kicked Yamucha's ass that other day. Where did you learn that? Goku?"

"Raditz," she said. "Goku taught me the Kamehameha wave, but�"

"Raditz, that's his name? Weird," said Videl.

"Considering Goku's real name is Kakkarot, are you surprised," said Atomique.

"Kakarot? Is THAT why Bulma's husband is always calling him that? But he's Goku�"

"Kakarot's his birth name. Raditz and he were separated when Goku was a baby�" said Atomique. "This Raditz is from my universe�"

"Really?" Videl murmured. "Well, where is he from?"

"Outer space," said she. "A planet named Vegeta�"

"Wait, that's Bulma's husband's name!"

"The planet and the royal house had the same name, go figure," said Atomique. "Vegetasei and each Prince have the same name."

"That's where the Saiyans come from, huh? Figured that Gohan acted like he was from another planet. He finally told me, but Goku having a brother�"

"Gohan hates Raditz, because the Raditz in this universe was cruel and mean," said Atomique. "So that's why he's keeping this a secret�"

"Oh I get it. Evil alternate universe doppelgangers," Videl grinned.

"I guess you could say that," Atomique murmured, enjoying the feel of the hot water seeping down her body.

"I don't know about you, but I'm wrinkled," Videl said. "You coming back in?"

"I'm going to soak for a while," said Atomique. Videl nodded, and nudged her.

"Well, your secret is safe with me. But you guys should really go out on a date, or are you sparring with him?"

"He's teaching me to fight," Tomique said.

"Even better. Nothing says you care about a guy when they let you kick their ass," Videl laughed, climbing out. She rushed into the house, leaving Tomique to remain alone and enjoy her solitary soak.
