Hi. I always had something like this in my mind, but I never really had the means to put it together... well, until now, obviously. For the most part, for those who may be wondering, I do intend to create a re-write for the Android/Cell saga. If it will carry over into the Buu saga I'm not sure yet. If Raditz will make an appearance... well, that's for you to decide. Hope you enjoy. :)

The flashing of lights and beeps of his computer woke him from his restless slumber. His left eye opened as the planet he had targeted came to view, the entirety of his vision shaded behind the dark blue hue of his scouter.

"Is this Earth?" he asked.

"... Confirmed. Planet Earth, entering atmosphere now. Scanning for habitual-"

"I know it's breathable."

"... Acknowledged. Landing sequence initiated at last known PTO ship signal."

His stomach flipped. He was finally here. Tracking his kinsmen was obviously an ignorant move for him; everyone was dead.

Well, not everyone.

Placing a track on Frieza's ship was such an obvious move, he was wondering why he hadn't thought of it.

-I suppose thinking was never part of my family, so father always told me.-

His ship carried him deeper into the atmosphere until he could finally make an image out into his vision.

Cities, miles and miles in length, busy and bustling. Completely unaware of his arrival, and he liked it that way. He wasn't messy with his work. Purge a planet, he would do it. Kill a man, and he did so, and not a person more; pets included.

"GOKU! LOOK AT THIS MESS!"

Poor Goku stood in the kitchen with his head sunk down, broken dishes littered the floor of the living room as his fuming wife stood across the table. Gohan hid behind his father.

"Aw come on Chi-Chi, it was an accident-"

"No Goku! You don't 'accidently' flip over an entire table, then catch the table but destroy all of the dishes in the process! And you!" she pointed to behind Goku. "I saw you this morning sneaking out of your window! Going to train with your father and forsake your studies?"

"B-But Mom, I-"

"NO BUTS GOHAN! THERE IS NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR STUDIES!"

"But Chi-Chi we had this discussion!" Goku flailed his hands around. "We only have two more years until those androids show up, I need Gohan to-"

"GOHAN NEEDS TO STUDY AND MAKE SOMETHING OF HIMSELF, UNLIKE HIS FATHER WHO DOES NOTHING BUT FIGHT ALIENS!"

Goku could feel a headache coming on. These arguments never ended well, never mind the fact that he accidently knocked the table over, caught it, but still couldn't save the dozens of broken dishes that were sparkling clean thanks to his usual eating habits.

All of a sudden he stopped. Chi-Chi's nagging voice filtered out as something came into his head. Something heavy, sad, angry.

"Gohan."

"I feel it too, Dad."

"Good. Then stay here with your mother."

"What? Dad-"

"No buts, Gohan. Listen to your mother. I'll be back soon." he quickly brushed past his wife out of the door, flaring his ki as he shot to the sky in the direction of where he felt this new energy.

-That power. It feels so familiar, but there's no way it could be that strong.-

The swelling of power got closer, the distance closing inch by inch until it finally stopped. Goku had flown for miles, ending in an open grassy meadow. Civilization was nowhere for miles, as was the nearest body of water.

"It's here..." he stepped down, his boots pressing onto the grass below as he looked around. "Alright! I know you're here!"

Soft steps came to his ear as Bardock's son glanced behind him, the image of a person finally came into view. When he turned around, he gasped in shock at what stood in front of him.

He was barely an inch shorter than him, somewhere in his late teens to early twenties. His black hair was spiky, sticking out in large spikes to the right in the front, receding to a shorter length to the left. Goku ignored his black and brown plated armor, drawn to only one thing that immediately stuck out to him.

A tail.

"You're..."

"A Saiyan." he cut him off. "Without a doubt one of the very last, no thanks to you."

"What?"

He took one step forward before his furious eyes focused directly on him.

"I'm going to ask you a question. Tell me, does the name Raditz sound familiar to you?"

His heart was pierced. It made perfect sense now. The tail, the face, the hair.

"That's my brother. Or he was."

He gave a pained yet equally angry smirk. "My name is Raiza."

He stepped even closer, until they were inches apart from each other's faces. The harsh howling of the wind brought goosebumps across Goku's skin as he stared into the face of someone he had never met, but he already knew, and knew exactly what he wanted.

"Raditz... was my father."
