Goku and Gohan stepped off the ship and glanced around the royal landing zone taking in the glamour and the sight of the magnificent palace of the earth's royal family before them.

"Kakarot!"

The pair turned to see Vegeta walk over with an elegant blue haired woman on his arm.

"Hey Vegeta long time no see," Goku said as the pair reached them.

Bulma glanced between Goku and Vegeta slightly miffed *How in the world are these two best friends, hell he's Vegeta's only friend, but they're almost complete opposites*

Goku took Bulma's hand and kissed the back of it. "And greetings to you milady, I'm Son Goku and this is my son Gohan," Goku said with a smile.

"I thought Vegeta called you Kakarot?" Bulma asked.

"His Saiyan name is Kakarot, his grandfather, the human who raised him a guy named Gohan named him Goku when he found him near his space pod." Vegeta explained.

"Oh so you named your son after the guy who raised you. I'm sure he's honored. Where's his mother though didn't she come with you?" Bulma asked.

And uncomfortable silence fell briefly amongst the group before Vegeta decided to break it.

"Yamcha!" Yamcha ran over and saluted to Vegeta.

Vegeta smirked he still enjoyed ordering him around even though it had been at least three years since he 'won' Bulma from him.

"Show Sergeant Goku to his and his son's quarters," Vegeta said choosing for once to call Goku by his real name to save it from causing problem's later.

"Yes Sir, Sergeant if you and your son will follow me I'll lead you to where you'll be staying." Yamcha said and with a nod from Goku the three left.

"Kakarot we'll meet you at the dining hall when you're done!" Vegeta called to the leaving trio.

"Ok Vegeta," came the reply.

"Come along Woman there are a few things I've got to tell you," Vegeta said leading her towards the dinning hall.

Once they got there Vegeta began to explain.

"Kakarot doesn't know who Gohan's mother is. I can't remember and no one else survived that would have know who she was either."

"What do you mean?" Bulma asked,

"Gohan is 11 years old so about 11 or 12 years ago Goku would have met his mother I guess. But some things happened that no one can remember. The last either of us remember was 10 years ago and is the only reason we know Gohan is Kakarot's son . . ."

*** FLASHBACK ***

Goku and Vegeta both lay on the ground of an unfamiliar planet badly beaten, bleeding and to weak to get up.

"Kakarot where is your mate?" Vegeta managed to get out in hoarse breaths finding it hard to breathe and speak with his injuries.

"I sent her in a pod back home she was unconscious so I couldn't even say goodbye but I couldn't find Gohan. I think . . . I think Demak got him."

"Well done Goku, you got that right," Demak sneered appearing between the two fallen warriors. His frame only slightly larger than Goku's he looked basically Human with ice blue eyes and brown, unruly, shoulder length hair but his red scaly skin proved he wasn't.

"That 'mate' of yours should have been mine. She was my prize, my toy but you already had claim and ruined her by this abomination!" Demak raised his arm showing an unconscious one year old Gohan in his grasp.

He threw Gohan onto Goku's chest causing Goku to wince in pain.

"Well if I can't have her no one can. Not that it will really matter as you three will be dead in an hour when I blow up this planet. It's a shame really that I killed the slave collector that found her cause now I don't know what useless planet you weaklings call home. But I will find her none the less and I will kill her!"

"You Bastard!" Goku growled out.

"Actually I've had another thought." Demak said grinning evilly.

"I'll block all your memories of her that way if by some miracle you survive or escape you'll be torture knowing you lost your one true love and can never find her cause you know nothing of her." Demak laughed evilly and before either could try to stop him a red beam hit them and everything went black.

***END FLASHBACK***

". . . The next thing we remember is waking up on one of the fleet's ship. The one survivor on the fleet that had gone to rescue Kakrot's mate and whoever else that had needed rescuing with must have either been important or there were quite a lot to send out a whole fleet. Anyway the one survivor was the pilot of the ship he used the ships scans to find any survivors. He only found Kakarot, Gohan and I everyone else was dead."

"Well doesn't he know who Goku's mate was?"

"Maybe? He found us just as the planet was about to explode. Apparently the take off was rough since the planet was breaking up around us. He was hit by something really hard in the ribs. A few of his ribs broke and pushed into his lung . . ."

Bulma covered her mouth as she gasped in horror.

"He suffered major internal bleeding and died shortly after I came to. He'd already programmed the auto pilot to bring us home to earth so once Kakarot and Gohan came to we took it in turns to use the regeneration tank I had made and installed on every ship in the fleet."

"Oh my Kami, that must have been so terrible for Goku to know he could never remember her." Bulma whispered

Vegeta hmphed and signaled for a maid to come and take their order. "I think the only thing that kept him going was the brat. He still seems trouble at times. He used to be so happy, carefree and fairly stupid come to think of it. He changed a lot after that incident. Worked hard to actually have a brain, took good care of his brat even though he was too sentimental to the brat and became sergeant. Not just a high level soldier because I promoted him because he was so strong and one of the last Saiyans."

The pair fell silent as a Maid came over to take their order of what they'd like while they waited for Goku and Gohan to come back.
