Chapter 1: Anniversary

"It has been one year," said a man wearing an orange gi and has wild spiky hair.

He stares at an open field with green grass. The man stretches his body with his hands upwards. Around his wrist are blue wristbands. He wears dark blue boots and a blue undershirt.

The man breathes in the fresh air.

"Goku!" yelled a woman. "You need to change clothes! Remember, we have a party to go to!"

Goku turns around with a smile on his face. Indeed, party with numerous foods is today.

"I'm coming, Chi-Chi," replied Goku as he turns around and heads back to his house.

It has been one year since the defeat of the evil Buu and the arrival of a new ally, Mr. Buu. Some of Goku's friends call the evil Buu, Kid Buu, due to the creature's outer appearance.

Goku enters his home meeting the face of his wife, Chi-Chi. Chi-Chi wears a red dress down to her knees with a purple cloth holding her hair in a bun. For the past few years, she has worn her entire hair into a bun, but lately, she allowed some of her hair in the front down giving her a similar hairstyle during her younger years.

"We need to get going Goku," said Chi-Chi.

Chi-Chi had to make sure Goku is dressed. No matter what pains he brings her, she still loves him with all of her heart. His revival from death a year ago has brought her tremendous happiness. Now, Goku can live with her and their children. Speaking of their children, their youngest child, Goten enters the kitchen, where Chi-Chi is waiting for Goku.

"Hey Mom," said Goten.

"Hello sweetie," replied Chi-Chi.

Goten wears casual clothes. He wears blue jeans with a black dress shirt. The collar remains open as Goten wears sunglasses. Chi-Chi raises an eyebrow when she notices Goten's glasses, but she decides to ignore it for now.

Chi-Chi's eldest son arrives a few minutes later. He wears black jeans with a yellow dress shirt. His collar remains open as well as he slowly walks towards the kitchen. Chi-Chi notices the sunglasses on him as well.

"Okay, Gohan, spill it," said Chi-Chi. "What's with the sunglasses?"

"It's just something father, Goten, and I decided to do," replied Gohan.

"All right, as long as you three don't decide to do anything wrong," said Chi-Chi with a suspicious tone.

Soon Goku returns to the kitchen. He wears black pants with a red dress shirt. His shirt remains open around the collar as he also wears sunglasses as well.

"All right, we are all here," said Chi-Chi. "We are late as it is."

"Don't worry Chi-Chi," said Goku. "I'll get us there in no time."

Goku grabs Chi-Chi around the shoulders as Gohan touches Goku's left shoulder and Goten grabs his father's left leg.

Goku places two fingers on his forehead as all four disappear.

"Come on," said a man in a purple dress shirt and black pants and has short black hair.

"Krillin, you need to loosen up," said a man in a blue suit and black hair in a ponytail.

"Yamcha, I'm married," said Krillin. "There is no need for me to head to a strip bar."

"Fine, but you are no fun," said Yamcha.

Suddenly, a flash appears before them as Goku and his family arrives on the scene. Krillin and Yamcha enter a defensive stance, but they soon return to normal after they realize who it is.

"Man Goku, you need to warn people before you pull a stunt like that," said Yamcha.

"Sorry about that," laughed Goku as he rubs the back of his head with his right hand.

Goku turns around and ends up staring towards the front of Capsule Corps. The gang decided to have the party at familiar grounds.

Android 18 walks up with Marron in her hands. 18 wears a dress shirt with beige pants. Marron wears a cute yellow dress reaching her knees.

A few minutes later, Ox King arrives in his car. He wears a nice orange dress shirt with black pants. He still hears the ox helmet on his head as he walks towards the group. Roshi arrives with Oolong as the two come in black suits. They say their hellos to the group as they all begin walking towards Capsule Corps. Puar swings by and lands on Yamcha just as they group continues their walk.

"Are Tien and Chiaotzu coming?" asked Gohan.

"I don't they are coming," replied Yamcha. "They don't come to many gatherings."

Chi-Chi rings the doorbell as Bulma opens the door. Bulma wears a blue dress reaching her knees. She has blue earring as she smiles towards her friends.

"You all made it," said Bulma. "Come in, we are just about finished with the decorations."

Trunks runs up to the group as he high fives Goten.

"What's up?" asked Trunks, who wears an olive green shirt and blue jeans.

"Nothing much, just training and school work," replied Goten.

"I know, I've been at it as well," said Trunks. "I rather just train, but mom doesn't let me. Though I do get a training session squeezed in with dad."

Bulma leads the group to the large dining room. This is the first gathering since the defeat of Buu. Each person was willing to make this party worthwhile. They are in a time of peace on their planet and they want to enjoy it as much as possible. Of course, some of the fighters continue their training just in case any new enemies appear, but so far, none has risen.

The doorbell rings again as Bulma walks to the door to open it. She soon returns with Videl, Hercule, and Buu.

Many of the people in the room have yet to warm up to Buu, but the past year has resulted in improving friendships.

Videl walks up to Gohan and hugs him. For the past year, their relationship has risen to greater heights. Hercule is still reluctant to allow his daughter to date, but he decided that having Gohan would be better than of the losers on the planet.

Videl turns to Chi-Chi, who smiles at her, but retains some of her force behind her stare. Videl sighs remembering her earlier conflict with Chi-Chi.

Flashback (six months ago)

"So, Miss Videl," started Chi-Chi. "What are you intentions with my son?"

"Well, I-," started Videl.

"Do you love him or are you using him?" asked Chi-Chi.

"I know you have money, but you are not a greedy person, who only cares for own self, are you?" added Chi-Chi. "Can I trust you to make my son happy while in public and in bed."

Videl blushes madly, but she manages to keep herself in control.

"I don't think that question is appropriate, but I will say this," said Videl. "I love your son. I don't know when it happened, but it did. I will be there for him until the day I die. I will protect his heart as he has mine. I will love him with all my heart. I will never betray him. I will make him happy in any way possible."

Chi-Chi smiles as she continues to check something on the clipboard in her hands.

Flashback Ends

"Woman!" shouted a man's voice. "Why the hell do I have pink clothes again? I told you to never give me that color again!"

"Oh shut up Vegeta!" yelled Bulma. "Pink brings out the man in you, so deal with it!"

"And you always wonder why I only wear my training outfit!" yelled Vegeta.

Vegeta comes down in a pink suit as he blushes with embarrassment and anger.

Goku begins laughing as Vegeta shoots him a dirty look.

"This is not funny Kakarot!" shouted Vegeta. "I am a man and I should not be forced to wear this color!"

"Why didn't you just wear your training clothes," said Gohan.

"I can't find them," replied Vegeta.

At this point, Bulma and Chi-Chi start laughing again as Vegeta leans on a nearby wall with his arms cross. He grunts, but decides to do nothing about his clothes.

Piccolo flies towards Capsule Corps. Gohan and Bulma invited him to the party, but he was not sure if he wanted to come. However, after much debating, he finally decided to make a stop even if it was for a moment.

As Piccolo heads towards West City, he notices smoke coming from the distance. The namek stops his flight as he watches the smoke continue to rise. He decides to make a quick stop and check the situation before continuing his journey to West City.

Piccolo arrives at his destination. His eyes widen as the village below him is in complete shatters. He lands on the ground looking around him. Dead bodies lay throughout the village. Each building is either on fire or in pieces. Not a single living soul remains.

"What happened here?" asked Piccolo to himself.

A simple person could not have done this type of attack. It had to be someone with power. However, how could that be? If it were someone with power, then he surely would have sense such a power.

Piccolo gets a dreadful feeling in his body as he watches the flames. The namek decides to head to Capsule Corps to alert Goku just in case.

*SC*

A group of three people walk through the barren wastelands as one of them holds one shiny orb in their hands.

"So, these are the famous dragon balls," said the first person with white hair.

"They don't seem like much," said the second person with black hair. "Can these little things really grant any wish?"

"I have done my research," said the leader with yellow hair. "I am sure these orbs will get us what we want. In fact, according to my research, two wishes are possible."

"If you say so," said the black hair man.

"How many are there?" asked the white hair man.

"My research indicates seven dragon balls. We have the three star dragon ball," said the yellow hair man. "Soon, we will have everything we need."

*SC*

Gohan takes a glass of water. He watches as Goten and Trunks run around the party room. Goku and Chi-Chi enjoy the slow music as they dance. It took his mother almost ten minutes just to get Goku to the dance floor.

Videl approaches Gohan with a small smile on her face. She places her hands on his hands.

"What are you waiting for?" asked Videl. "Dance with me."

Gohan has a feeling it was not a question, but more a demand. He nods his head as he stands up and begins dancing with Videl. They embrace each other with his hands behind her back and hers behind his back. Videl places her head on his chest enjoying his heartbeat. Gohan places his chin on the top of her head. The past year with Videl has been great for him. He is lucky his mother and Videl did not rip each other to pieces.

Goku holds onto Chi-Chi as his wife hums to the music. Even though he might not seem like it, he does enjoy his time with Chi-Chi. She gave him two sons and a great life. He does regret leaving her multiple times to fight against powerful enemies, but he has to do what he can to protect her and their family.

*SC*

Around twenty minutes later, Piccolo finally makes it to Capsule Corps as he hears noises from the backyard. He flies to the back and lands as Goku and Vegeta enter an eating contest.

"Piccolo, long times no see," said Gohan.

"Hey, Gohan," replied Piccolo. "Listen, I need to talk to everyone about something I found when I was heading here."

"All right, I'll tell everyone," said Gohan.

After Goku and Vegeta's destructive eating contest, which Bulma yelled at them for, everyone present went inside into the living room.

"I know today is a day when we are supposed to enjoy. I'm sure we can still enjoy it, but I want to tell everyone what I found on my way here," said Piccolo.

"What happened?" asked Goku.

"A village I was passing by was destroyed," said Piccolo. "It seemed like the attack was energy based."

"I don't think we have much to worry about," said Yamcha. "If we didn't sense it, then it is probably some weak person who learned the basics of Ki."

"It could be a possible threat," said Piccolo. "We should not take this lightly."

"All right, we should check it out just in case," said Goku. "For now, where's the cake!"

Piccolo sighs as Goku resume his eating marathon. The namek turns around hoping the people behind the attack of the village was not a threat.

However, this next threat will test the might of Goku and his friends.
