The birth towards a legend

At Mt. Paozu, 439 east district, there was a cottage. It was finely built and very beautiful. The mountains and plains were lush and full of life. There truly was no day this cottage existed that has been a regret towards the owner of the house.

Who was the owner of the house? His name is Goku and he is currently helping his lovely wife Chichi. Goku was a man that has been raised in the woods for twelve years since his Grandpa found him. Goku's is also known as the strongest man alive. He won the world martial arts championship after his great battle with Piccolo Jr or the Demon King's reincarnation, if you put it that way. After he beaten his opponent, he married Chichi.

When both of them were young Chichi asked him if she could marry him in the future. Goku at the time did not know what marriage was. Goku was a bit naïve, and he thought marriage was a type of food. He agreed.

And then as the world martial arts tournament went on, an adult Chichi came and asked Goku if he could remember her and the promise he made. Goku didn't remember making the women very angry. She stormed off and left Goku.

Goku first remembered her after he beat her in a match. After she explained the promise he had made towards her he felt that he should keep the promise. He agreed to marry her after the tournament.

She had made arrangements for their marriage after the tournament and they were married by the end of that day. Of course they couldn't stay at Capsule Corporation so they had made a house for each other at where Goku felt was best.

Chichi was the strongest women in the world. She had married the strongest man in the world. Chichi had loved martial arts, but that all changed when she saw her husband being beaten by a demon. Even though Goku had won, she had formed an unconscious hatred towards martial arts.

She had tried to get Goku out of training, but training was always on his mind. When Chichi was not cooking or cleaning for Goku she would most certainly always like seeing him train. Goku was basically a bottomless pit. She had tried to make him eat a bit better, but to no avail.

Goku first had only managed to live with his wife because he had made a promise and the man always kept a promise. Then after a while he really did start to love Chichi. He expressed his love with words and kisses towards Chichi very frequently in those first three months.

It was only that one day Goku and Chichi had really had found the perfect moment. Indeed, it was so perfect that Goku and Chichi had made more love that day than any other. Let's just say that Goku and Chichi had some activities to do behind their door. That was the best night of their lives and all of their fruits and hard work would be worth the way they spent that day.

We find both of them today at a hospital, Goku was very nervous. He has had bad experiences with needles. He hated them, in fact the only reason he is here with Chichi is because she promised him with no food for a week.

'Gosh, I hope whatever is wrong with Chichi, the doctor can finish. I mean I would have to eat fish, fish and more fish without her.' The naïve man thought. Truly it was strange, about two months ago Chichi had mysteriously fallen ill. She would be sick for days at times and would eat and throw up immediately afterwards. She also had a strange bump on her stomach. Goku had thought that Chichi had stolen some buns and was hiding it away from him. Goku was actually shocked to find it was indeed her stomach. Goku had to fish in order to satisfy his undying hunger. He really hoped Chichi could go home with him safetly and happily.

Just then the doctor came with a happy smile on his face. "Mr. Son your wife will be here soon. I hope you will enjoy the happy news that she brings." The doctor said with a smile. Now that Goku knew that there was happy news on the way, he gave a smile. He waited patiently until Chichi came.

Chichi walked up towards her husband and said in a happy voice "Goku you won't believe. I am pregnant with a baby!" Goku was confused…what was…a…baby? He was going to ask Chichi what she was talking about when Chichi saw the look on his face. Immediately recognizing why, he was doing that she face-palmed.

"Goku being pregnant and having a baby means we are going to be a family. It also means that both of us are going to be a parent, a mommy and a daddy." Goku then smiled and gently took Chichi and kissed her. "That's great honey." he said "Can we go home now?" He asked in a very childish voice.

Both of them climbed onto Nimbus and flew towards their home. Upon arriving both of them had become tired and went straight towards both of their beds, where they slept.

Goku was dreaming of some beautiful, oily bacon. He was also dreaming that he was eating a lovely meal. Nothing too bad for him, but Chichi was having a nightmare. Chichi was dreaming about her child, that she couldn't protect him from the evil king Piccolo.

Goku was lying at Piccolo's feet. He was dead. It was only a dream, but it still hut her heart. As the dream went on she saw her child being defenseless as the world was being destroyed. Chichi couldn't even save her poor dream child as she had committed suicide in her dreams. She saw the child die with a snapped neck.

That was when Chichi woke up in cold sweat. She breathed heavily and she patted her stomach to make sure her child was ok. She looked at her husband and saw him. She breathed a sigh of relief. "It was just a dream…just a dream." She whispered.

Goku felt his wife's Ki. It was full of sadness and fright. He opened his eyes and saw her. He then unconsciously snuggled up closer to Chichi. Chichi saw him snuggle closer to her and she smiled.

She then took slowly brushed Goku's wild untamable hair. It was as black as the night itself. It was defying gravity very easily and was always palmed shaped. She kept brushing until she surprisingly hears Goku purr. It was soothing toward the future mother.

As her mind was beginning to drift back into unconsciousness she felt Goku snuggle even closer to her. His purrs were vibrating on her. It felt good as she started to sleep.

"GOKU!" Chichi yelled "HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU!? I DON'T WANT TO GO TO THAT PERVERTS REUNION!" Goku looked a bit sad "Aw, come on Chi? Pleeeeeeeaaaaseee?" Chichi huffed and walked out of the room with her head held high.

Goku then thought to himself that maybe Chichi would think about it. After all the reunion would be in about four-ish years. Goku dropped the subject and thought about something else…his unborn child.

The child had already grown strong in the womb of Chichi. Goku could feel he would be a very strong child. He and Chichi had already discussed what they would do with him. Chichi wanted him to be a scholar and study all day long, but Goku wanted the child to train. In the end Chichi would let him train, but he must do some of his studies. Goku remembered how Chichi reacted.

*Flashback*

"NOOO! GOHAN IS GOING TO BE A SCHOLAR! HE WILL NOT BE A PUNK LIKE YOU AND BE IN A GANG!" Chichi yelled. Goku was cowering behind a door. He slowly came out and slowly said "But, Chichi. I…I…want to be a father." Chichi looked at Goku.

"You can be a father, but you are not allowed to train him." Goku actually looked heartbroken "But…Chichi! I…I…really wanted to train the little squirt." He said while pouting.

Chichi actually felt a pang of sorrow in her chest. Still she would show no emotion "NO GOKU! He or she will be a scholar and get a job and finally…GRANDBABIES!"

Just then Goku go a very sly idea on how to let Chichi let him train the child. Goku put on a worried face and said "Chichi, but what if the baby is attacked when he or she is older and he is unable to defend itself." Chichi opened her mouth and said in an unsure voice "You will be able to help him or her."

Goku knew Chichi would say this. "But what if something happened to me and I am unable to Help it. What if Piccolo comes and kills it?" Chichi then looked scared, but she said "That won't happen, you won't die." Goku then took out his trump card. "But what if I did die, then Piccolo comes and kidnaps the child and kills him. Then you won't be able to have any grandchildren." That was it. Chichi sighed and left the room with tears in her eyes. She MUST have grandchildren.

Goku had just won the battle. He could now train their child. After a while Chichi came in and said "You won this time Goku, but the Child WILL Study at least three hours a day, DO, I, MAKE, MYSELF, CLEAR!" Goku hastily nodded.

"Good come on let's go for a walk." She instantly replied.

*End flashback*

Goku was brought out of his thoughts when a plate was put in front of him. He looked up at Chichi. Her stomach had grown a lot and she had some dark wrinkles under her eyes. The baby was due in a couple of weeks.

Goku found Chichi and himself excited towards the baby's arrival. After both of them had eaten as much as they could they left for bed. Goku had already thought of calling his longtime friend Bulma and ask if he could use their Capsule Corp as a place where the child could be born. He unfortunately didn't have the time to do that as Chichi had dragged him into shopping with her, unless he wanted to have no dinner.

Goku and Chichi had already gotten clothes for the baby along with other things like baby food, diapers, clean wipes, etc. It goes on and on. There was even a baby communicator in its room. There was hundreds of clothes and lot's of things. Goku felt a bit of sympathy though, he felt that the baby shouldn't eat baby food. He tasted it and it was foul. Never again would he open his mouth to put in the presence known as baby food.

Also the ox king had come and and stayed with his little family when he had the chance. He was excited he was finally going to be a Grandfather. He and Chichi and Goku would laugh about the baby all day long.

Goku got comfortable with Chichi on the bed. Both of them yawned and went to sleep. Chichi eyes opened briefly as she felt a contraction. She sat up and felt her stomach, that couldn't be right. The baby was due in a few weeks.

Another contraction came and she knew the little critter was going to be born right then and there on the child's parents bed. She tried to wake up Goku, but he just mumbled "Chichi need more melons in my stomach." Chichi looked shocked for a second and just stared at him.

Another contraction! Chichi had enough, she slapped Goku with the force of a train. Goku instantly woke up and he asked "Why did you wake me up Chichi?" Chichi couldn't believe him. This was NOT the time to be naïve. "It seems the little critter is going to make an early entrance Goku." Goku paled and he immediately did what Chichi told him to do. Chichi screamed and she opened her legs wider.

"You you do know where the baby is going to come out, right?" Goku then looked at Chichi and naïvely said "Yes the same place where I put my…." BANG! There opens the door and in runs the ox king. HE was happy and was smiling, he couldn't wait for Chichi to deliver.

Another contraction! They were getting difficult to maintain as the child started to come. Chichi yelled as she gave a push. Goku then smiled and said "I can see the beginning of his head, Chichi!" Chichi felt a stroke of happiness as she realized what was happening. "H…here is another push." She gave another push and out came the head. Goku gently took hold of the head and he started sliding the baby out of the womb.

After the last push they finally released the baby from his confinement. The baby took a deep breath and yelled, announcing his arrival to the world and beyond. This was truly a happy day!

Chichi was panting and Goku and The Ox King were both jumping for Joy as the saw they child calm down and look at Goku with it's beautiful black eyes. His eyes were so full of Joy and the child smiled and snuggled deeper towards the one he would know as daddy. Goku's heart melted when he heard the baby purr. He took an even closer look at the and saw that the baby had a mane of hair that traveled down the nape of his neck. It was black and was sticking all over, just like Goku's. Goku then got the surprise of his life when a golden brown tail wrapped itself around his arm.

Goku looked at the baby's parts and exclaimed "He has the same parts as I do! He is a … boy!' Chichi smiled and the ox king too they gathered around the baby and looked at him. They baby studied all of them curiously.

They wrapped the baby in some blankets and made sure he was warm. They put the baby in his room with his toy's, but the only thing that baby wanted to do was sleep. While he was sleeping his family talked with each other.

"What should we name him Chichi?" Was the question both men had asked Chichi. Chichi looked proud when she announced the name of the baby "My first thought would be Einstein…." The baby wailed when it was mentioned "Or Alfred." The baby was hysterically crying while chichi just held him ", but knowing this baby we need to have a good name for him. So I was thinking how about Gohan." Immediately the child looked at Chichi with wide eyes when she mentioned Goku's grandpa's name.

Goku then took the baby and said "Gohan!" The baby laughed, no Gohan laughed. It was beautiful. The sight of Goku holding a giggling Gohan was enough to make Chichi smile.

Goku had a secret belief that Gohan was meant for greatness. His belief was fully erected at the night of Gohan's birth.

It was about two-thirty in the morning when Goku hear awoke to a strange noise. It was the sound of a baby.

Goku heard Gohan cry in the middle of the night. It wasn't a wail of despair and want, but it was one that was angry, but at what we will never know. Goku ran in and was shocked to find the child not only different, but it's Ki was noticeable larger. Gohan's baby hair was gold and pointier and spikier. His thrashing tail was too a golden color, but it was his eyes that always expresses feelings. There was also this golden aura radiating of off the child. His teal eyes expressed violence and anger. So much he almost dropped Gohan when he picked him up.

"Chichi come here. Look at Gohan!" He yelled. Chichi came in and screamed. Her frying pan magically appeared and she smashed it against Goku. "HOW DARE YOU DIE HIS HAIR GOKU!" She yelled "Chichi I came here to help him and he was like this when I arrived." Chichi tried to calm down.

Even though Goku was the strongest person on Earth, he felt Gohan was strong at least a little bit more than his mother. His mother was the strongest woman alive for crying out loud! Gohan looked at Goku through his teal eyes. Goku smiled back and thought of a way on how to turn Gohan back to normal.

Goku tickled the baby, but to no avail as Gohan cried and slapped Goku's finger away. "Wow Chichi, the little critter is powerful." He exclaimed surprised. Goku then put Gohan on his knee and hopped it with his foot. At first the now teal baby just made noises, but after a while his golden aura faded, leaving the baby with blond hair.

Gohan gave a yawn. When he exhaled the entire room was a mess. Gohan looked at Goku with sleepy eyes. Goku then took Gohan's blond tail and rubbed it. Gohan yawned again and closed his teal eyes and snuggled closer towards his daddy.

When Chichi finally managed to calm down Gohan had managed to fall asleep. His gold spiky hair faded back into his black messy hair. The gold also left his tail and his aura. Even though they couldn't see it, they knew Gohan's eyes turned back into his regular black eyes.

Goku then said to Chichi "Go to bed, I'll take care of him for now." Chichi was still in a shock, but she obliged.

While Goku was holding baby Gohan, he brushed his black hair earning a gentle purr from the child. Goku smiled at this. Goku looked around to see if Chichi was around or spying on them. She wasn't. Goku then started to purr. Goku then instinctively started making a bond with Gohan. Gohan had accepted that. The two now shared a powerful bond.

To any other human being this would not make sense, but neither did Goku's life make any sense. He could fly and shoot beams out of his hands. After every battle he became mysteriously stronger. Goku then used his ki to create a nightlight for Gohan.

Goku now knew his son was destined for greatness. He was immensely powerful. Goku looked at his newborn son. And whispered in Gohan's ear "I promise that you will be a great man Gohan."

Goku just knew it.

It has been two years since Gohan was born and the family was loving every moment of it. The golden form of Gohan didn't just disappeared as Chichi had hoped, it appeared whenever Gohan was angry or upset.

Surprisingly enough he somehow managed to have some emotions. Like once Goku had spilled some lemonade and slipped. Gohan who was previously playing after he had transformed had seen this and started to giggle. Goku managed to laugh as well. It was just good hearing Gohan laugh.

Chichi and Goku loved Gohan a lot. From that very first day. A lot of time had passed. Gohan could now talk very good for a two-year-old. He loved paying with words. Goku and Chichi had played with him. Chichi saw Gohan was an expert when it came to studying. He read things that made grade eighters look like babies.

We find the family in their cottage, Chichi was talking to herself. "It seems just like yesterday that Gohan was born. Hmm…Should I make the cake green or blue? I know what about red and orange? Yes, he'll like that." Yes, it was Gohan's birthday today. He didn't know it as he was to watch his daddy train today.

"Those two had better not eat something on the way home." She muttered. Gohan loved to laugh and so did Goku. She had finished the cake and packed it in a lunch box. They were going to have a picnic today to celebrate his birthday. She packed all the necessary equipment.

She was just finished when she heard the door open and in came a sopping wet Goku and Gohan. Both were laughing. Goku was giggling at Gohan who was asking for more "More dada! More!" He giggled.

Chichi saw Goku going to Gohan's room to change him. "Goku come on let's go!" Goku poked his head out of Gohan's room and said "Coming chichi." After a while came a clean Gohan with now a clean pair of clothes. When Gohan stood up and looked at his mom he said "Mummy!" He ran to Chichi and hugged her leg. Chichi heart melted when he did that.

She then said "Gohan, come on let's go. We are having a picnic. Let's get you into your wheelie chair." Gohan smiled and said "Picwic. YAY! WHEELO CHAIR!" Goku chuckled and scooped up the two-year-old and walked out.

"NIMBUS!" Goku yelled. The yellow cloud flew in. Chichi and Gohan climbed on while Goku used his Ki to fly. Goku was holding tightly onto his mother, he even wrapped his tail around her while both of them squealed in delight. They found an empty field and river. They landed and immediately started to unpack their picnic belongings.

Goku had already put Gohan in the ground and played with him. Chichi had some presents for Gohan. When everything was ready both father and son were called. "Goku! GOHAN! Come and get it!" Both ran towards the food and ate madly while Chichi was taking pictures with her camera.

When everything was gone and I mean every crumb and cake, Chichi and Goku showed Gohan his presents. Gohan's birthday presents were a new pair of clothes, slippers, a monkey costume and a book about aliens. Gohan said "Tank Daddy and mommy. TANK YOU!"

Goku then gave a great smile and said "Well Gohan that was mommy's presents. "Here is daddy's presents." Goku showed Gohan three packages. Gohan opened the first one and he squealed in delight. In them was an exact replica of Goku's Gi only downsized. He even had some armbands. When he tried to lift them he found they were heavy. In the second package was some books. It was when they came to the third package that Goku began to get excited. Gohan opened it and gasped. It was a red hat with a dragon ball that had four stars on it.

"Pwetty ball! Happy hat!" Gohan yelled and put it on his head. "Come on Gohan let's go for a walk in the wheelie chair "WHEELO CHAIR!" Gohan yelled happily. They put him in his chair and walked in the woods.

Gohan giggled happily as they walked in the woods. Gohan's tail waved behind him. It was a while later when they came home. Chichi looked at the time and saw it was about seven pm. Gohan gave a yawn and rubbed his eyes with a messy fist.

Chichi went to bed, leaving Goku to tuck Gohan into bed. When he did just that, Gohan said "Want nightylighty." Goku smiled and gently said "Goodnight Gohan." Goku closed the door and Gohan then sighed.

Gohan really wanted a night light. He then thought about how his daddy always made a nightlight. It was a blue ball that floated over him. Gohan tried to do it, but it didn't work. The only thing that came from Gohan's hands were a bit of sparks. Gohan felt angry. Why could he not do what his daddy did? It made Gohan angry. Gohan took a deep breath and a glow came over him. He was now in his blond form. His aura made a smooth glow that made the tired child close his eyes and embrace the long awaited peacefulness of sleep.

Tomorrow he would wake up. Tomorrow he would play. He was Son Gohan. He was the son of Goku. This is his legacy. Stay tuned for more.
