"Son Goten...?" The voice was soothing, yet urgent at the same time, "Whoo Hoo!" Goten jumped out of the wooden chair he was sitting in? Huh? Where am I? "Oh, sorry! I'm a little new to this. I am Aqua and I have a special task for you." Goten looked around but it was just darkness. Every where except where he was sitting and where Aqua now stood. Aqua was a young, beauty of a girl that looked about Goten's age. Her blue hair matched her almost perfect blue eyes.

"Uhhhh... hi," He said a little too softly, "Am I dead?"

"Yes! Wait no! It is a little bit complicated. See I nabbed you before you hit Yenma's place. There is this really rough world where not many inhabitants are actually from there. Most of the Heroes are sent there, like you might, to defeat the Devil King." Goten was glued to Aqua's story. It was like every story Gohan and Grandpa Ox King ever told him and more!

"One thing," Goten didn't want to interrupt but he needed to know what happened, "How did I get here? Last thing I remember was fighting off Frieza and his Army..."

Aqua sighed, "Well,here's the thing, you went out Bravely..."

Goten and Trunks stood before Frieza at his strongest. Both Super Saiyans rushed the shorter Alien but not able to get a single shot in. Frieza wrapped his tail around Trunks' neck to keep him at bay. Goten landed a blow to Frieza's face followed by a knee into stomach. Frieza returned the blow sending the young Saiyan soaring across the sky. Goten balanced himself before he started falling. He tried firing Ki Blasts but they weren't much to talk about because Trunks could be used as a shield.

Frieza rushed Goten, still holding on to a fading Trunks, he swatted Goten towards the ground. Krillin caught Goten before he hit the ground, but he didn't see Trunks being tossed after them. Goten quickly thanked Krillin as he fly back up to Frieza as fast as he could. The two combatants clashed forearm to forearm and that was the last thing Goten remembers.

He was fading in and out. What was it that pierced him? Gohan? Gohan, that power is incredible! Why can't he hear me?

Gohan lost it when he saw his baby brother fall to the ground, a hole where his heart used to be... Even after years of not training, unsure if he could maintain Super Saiyan 1, Gohan's rage got the best of him. No one felt this type of power since Gohan took on Cell. Frieza was in a world of Hurt.

"And after a few blows Frieza knocked you back with his tail and fired a beam into your heart. Your brother lost it not long after that, and than your Father showed up. Frieza was defeated and now its time for your choice to be made." Aqua laid out a dozen or so pages in front of Goten, "Will you defeat the Devil King and save the world?"

"Yeah! But what are these?" Goten shuffled through the pages.

"These are weapons or Spells that you can take with you. You'll be able to remember everything from your past life and take all your experiences into this new life. You're young, think of it like a video game. You are transferring saves!"

Goten was excited, had a new sparkle in his eyes, as he sifted through each weapon and spell. "Its like the RPG me and Trunks play! Ooooh this could be fun!" Aqua just stated blankly, a little too uninterested, as Goten began to test her patience. Asking her questions she didn't know the answers to. How dare he! Hours passed by and Goten still couldn't make up his mind. "Hey, can I have a bite? Dying is very exhausting..." Aqua grew a tick out of anger as Goten was just wasting her time at this point. So she did what a mature and respectable Goddess would do. She was petty.

"Ooooh look at all this food~" She took graceful bites that made the food look divine. Goten tried taking a bite but it all faded before he could taste it. "Look. At. Your. Face!" Aqua was in tears rolling around on the floor as His stomach was heartbroken. Goten wept. Aqua couldn't believe that this brave, strong kid was weeping. This went on for a lot longer than Goten would've liked to admit...

"Fine! I know what I'll choose."

"Oh good! Let's get this over with."

"You." Goten looked at the blue haired Goddess before him.

"Very well," Aqua opened a gateway, a magical circle around Goten and his choice, without really paying attention. "Wait, what was it again?"

A pillar of light shone down as another Goddess gently floated down. "Your choice has been Approved. I shall take over Lady Aqua position until you two successfully defeat the Devil King!"

"W-Wait!!! That's my line! T-This can't be happenin-" With a bright flash Goten and Aqua were now in a new world.

Goten "woke" up once more but this time he wasn't in that Between Death Phase. He was now in a small town, a Town of Beginnings! "Oh! Looook, there's the Blacksmith, and over there the Carpentier, and-" Aqua was laying on the ground, flat on her back like a plank, crying her eyes out. She wasn't just crying, she was sobbing. Snot Sobs too. It was not pretty.

"I-I-I am a Goddess... I-I'm a Goddess..." She tried to sooth herself. It wasn't working in the slightest. It was starting to cause a scene. There was Goten in his training outfit of blue Gi pants, green boots, orange wristbands, and his signature yellow T-Shirt with neon green sleeves that had "GOTEN" written across the chest. And Aqua... She had a perky figure, wore a slender blue and white outfit that showed off her curves, and a skirt so short it left very little to the imagination. She was gorgeous, especially by goddess standards . "Y-You ruined my liiiife." She now sobbed as she clung to Goten's pant leg.

Goten spent the day running around town looking for hints at where he should start his journey. "Hmmmm... every game had one." He looked down to see a depressed Aqua faced down in the dirt. "C'mon, you need to get up and help me!"

"Help you?! You STRANDED me here! In this... this Hell!"

"Look, there's a guild!" Goten didn't want to completely ignore Aqua's whines, but she had been whining for a while now. It was annoying and caused one hell of a headache for Goten. "Let's see if we can find some work."

"WORK?!?!?!" Aqua was completely stunned, "You brought me here to this awful place and now you want me to work?!"

"Yeah," Goten responded almost too nonchalantly, "We're gonna need a place to stay." The duo walked up to the large doors of the Guild Hall. Being a "Beginner's Town" the Guild wasn't aligned with any one focus. There were many different classes around the hall. Some were Adventurers while others were merchants. It was a nice blend of people.

"Hi! Welcome to Tantegel's Guild Hall. Just let me know of there is anything I can do for you." The woman greeted them from the front desk. She had long hair that was a deep purple and she wore a simple uniform of a white shirt and green pants with a navy blue apron.

Goten smiled at the Desk Lady's greeting, "Thanks! We're here to become Adventurers!" Aqua just glared at the nice lady with a deadpanned expression.

"Sure thing! That'll be 100 gold each."

"..." Goten didn't respond.

"..." Aqua's face did not change in the slightest.

"Excuse me?!?!" Goten's jaw hit the floor as he had just came to this new world and he had no gold what so ever. "How are we supposed to afford that?"

"Well, there are plenty of jobs around town that could be done. We are a Town of many Traits!" Goten groaned to himself. This was the same story drivel that MMORPGs gave you for Beginner Towns. The Duo were stuck.

X 1 X 1 X

Goten and Aqua found a decent paying job. Well... More so a paying job. It was simple, Goten would move all the rubble from the last attack on the Town. Aqua would just watch the water stand to make sure no one steals from it. It was easy for them as Aqua didn't have to do much and Goten was able to keep his trained body from his previous life. All said and done, "Here you kids go." 53 gold pieces. 106 between the two of them.

"Okay, so that is one stable for the night, Two guests. Total is 96 Gold." The look on the Inn Keeper's face was too happy for Goten's liking, but he was tired and they needed to become adventurers.

Goten laid on the hay bed when Aqua just rolled around with a little more complaints. "I'm itchy here" and "Its stiff there" and many more. Just before Goten could close his eyes for good, Aqua planted her head on his chest. "What're you doing?"

"You are making me sleep in a BARN! I get to use you as a pillow-"

"Quiet you two or you'll be outta're!"

"Y-Yes Ma'am!"

Goten couldn't sleep. So much had happened that day, Frieza attacking Earth, he died, he was sent to a whole other world. Also Aqua didn't help much. She drooled, a LOT, and kept flailing about, "Mmmm... that's the stuff..." Aqua caressed Goten's abs and it was just awkward.

"Wonder how Mom and Dad took my death, Gohan too." Goten pondered to himself. He remembers Aqua saying that Gohan lost control of himself, and he felt that power up. "Oh shit! Pan's birthday is coming up..." Goten tried to think of all the cool things that happened today, he is in an RPG World after all, but he couldn't help but miss his old life. He missed his friends, Family, and Marron. Man he missed Marron. She was beautiful, playful, could be a baby at times, and cried until she got her way. Maybe Goten was really homesick, but Aqua had a few of those qualities too...

Goten shook these thoughts from his head. He can't crush on Aqua, can he?

Goku and Gohan were panting heavily. Barely able to stand Gohan fell to the ground as Goku flew off to the rest of the gang. Once again the Pilaf Gang saved the day with their ridiculous first wish, "We wish for never ending Zeni Card!" Shenron accepted.

"Your wish has been granted. You have one remaining wish..."

"Hey Shenron," Goku greeted his old friend, "We have a really important one."

"Speak your wish..."

"We would like you to bring back my son, Goten."

Shenron's eyes glowed but the normal magic sound wasn't the regular sound. Almost like a credit card being declined. "Your Wish cannot be granted."

"Wait, why not? Goten has only been revived once!"

"Your wish cannot be fulfilled, Farewell."

"Wait!" Goku shouted out, almost angrily, as Shenron vanished for one more year. He then Instant Transmission'd himself and Gohan back to Capsule Corp. where everyone waited for them. Chi-Chi was the first to ask...

"W-Where's Goten? Where is my Son?!"

Goku wrapped his arms around his wife, "Shenron couldn't bring him back..."

"Why not?!"

Everyone was shocked and quite saddened by this news. Piccolo gave Gohan and Senzu Bean, while Trunks kicked himself in the corner. Marron sobbed onto her mother's arms. That's when Goku got a crazy idea, "This happened with Gohan before!"

"What?" The room was a little skeptical by Goku's hopeful demeanor.

"Yeah, remember when Buu attacked? Shin and Kabito took Gohan to that sword! I'll be right back!" Goku smiled as he kissed Chi-Chi's cheek. In the very instant he was gone.

Goku appeared before Kabitokai and Elder Kai, "Hey, have you seen-"

"Goku," Elder Kai cut him off with serious tone, "We know why you're here, but he's not."

"Hmm? Whadd'ya mean? You brought Gohan here when he almost died!"

"Yes, but-" Kabitokai was cut off by Goku's aura lashing out. Before they could calm Goku down he was gone.

"He's King Yenma's problem now..."

-King Yenma's Palace-

"Next!" The large Ogre of the Otherworld shouted to the long, never-ending line of souls before him. As the small white cloud floated towards the large desk it was cut off by a surge of power and an aura that shook Yenma to his core.

"Where's my son."

"G-Goku! What are you doing here? You can't just break the rules of life and deat-"

"My. Son."

Yenma flipped through his book. He never saw Goku like this. "The only person I can find from that battle was Frieza! Your son never came through." Just like that Goku's power was gone. Just about undetectable completely. He returned to Capsule Corp. once again.

"Shenron was right... Goten can't be brought back."

Chi-Chi broke down as Bulma watched the light in Goku's eyes dim just a bit. Trunks punched a new doorway out of the building before flying off. Marron felt like she couldn't breath, and Gohan... Gohan did not want to move. He felt responsible. Just a few minutes soon, or maybe if he never gave up fighting his little brother would still be here with them all.

There was a somberness to the room, those who could sense it, felt Trunks' power spike to near unhealthy levels. If he wasn't a Saiyan there would be dire consequences. No one knew what to say, this was unprecedented even in this crazy world. Bulma tried to comfort her best friend but she was stopped by her husband.

Vegeta asked Bulma to have a feast prepared and the best drinks in the world. "Don't hold back." She was a little surprised by Vegeta's attitude. Vegeta walked behind Gohan and clasped his shoulder tightly, "We'll celebrate Goten's brave efforts. He was a Saiyan, a goofball of a Saiyan, but he did his race proudly today. So with that we shall honor him."
