Spectra smiled evily as she saw the beautiful blue planet before her. She had always hoped that she would see it again after her bout with Goku, not just for the beauty, but for her husband.
While traveling the galaxy, she contacted as many planets and races as possible. Her first try was obviously at Planet Yardrat where Liw had first retrived the information on Goku, but apparently the saiyan warrior had managed to contact the planet and asked not to give out anymore information.
Luckily, Goku was quite known around the galaxy. While contacting as many people as possible, she was able to milk vital information from whoever had heard of the saiyan hero. From what she had learned, one of Goku's sons was already married with a child, but the other was still very much single. That was enough for her. Spectra was finally about to receive her husband.
The ship entered the Earth's atmosphere. "Here I come... Goten."
"Hey, this casserole really is good!" chimed Goku as he gobbled as much as he could down.
"Thanks," said Valese, "I only wish I had made more so everyone else could try..."
Chi-chi fumed, "First she steals my son, then she usurps my cookin'??"
"So, um, Valese," spoke Videl, "How did you and Goten meet?"
"He rescued me from an oncoming bus," Valese answered, "I guess I just wasn't paying attention when I crossed the road, but I certainly couldn't take my eyes off the man who rushed me out of the way before I could get hit."
"Oh great," muttered Chi-chi, "Just what he needs... a damsel in distress..."
"Did you know Uncle Goten had about 10 other girlfriends before he met you?" chirped Pan, causing Goten to cringe.
Valese however put a hand behind her head, "Er, yea, he told me... But I never really had much luck with guys myself. But Goten seems different."
"Same here," said Goten, "Out of all the girls I met, I have to admit you really stand out, Valese."
"I bet he says that to ALL the girls he dates!" Pan grinned.
Goten chuckled, but scowled at his niece, "Pan, sweetheart, it's time for you to stop talking now...!"
Pan fumed, "Quit talking to me like I'm a three-year-old! Grandpa's closer to that age, mentally and PHYSICALLY!"
The ten-year-old-ish man glanced up, "You say something?"
Valese chuckled, "My, what an intresting family. I think I can get used to this..."
"Goku, you haven't even tried any of my warthog snout!" Chi-chi complained, "When are you goin' to eat the food that I prepared??"
"Okay, okay, I'm ready," Goku smiled as he picked up a forkfull of his wife's cooking. Before he got it into his mouth, however, he immediatley froze.
"Goku? Why did you stop?" said Chi-chi, "Don't tell me you actually prefer that girl's casserole over my specialities!"
"No... it's not that," said Goku, with a serious look on his face.
"Dad, what is it?" asked Gohan.
"Shh..." Goku hushed, trying to concentrate, "That ki... it felt familiar."
Goten concentrated himself, "Yeah, I sort of felt it too...."
Gohan nodded, "But the last time I felt it, it came from..."
The three gasped, remembering who it was. "What??" cried Chi-chi, "What is it?? What's wrong??"
"Chi-chi, whatever happens, do NOT leave the house, understand?? Stay here!" Goku ordered as he jumped out of his seat and raced out the front door with his two sons following.
"Wait for me!" cried Pan as she jumped out and followed her grandfather.
"Pan, wait, be careful!" Mr. Satan called as he chased after her. The other three women crowded by the window to see what was going on.
Once outside, the Son men glanced around themselves. "I don't see her," said Gohan.
"She could have that cloaking device on," said Goku, "It hides her power level as well as her ship."
"Then she could be anywhere!" said Goten, "But where... and why?"
As if to answer, there was a sudden chuckle from the sky, as if it was being megaphoned. "Spectra..." Goku growled.
"Well, well, well... nice to see you all. I'm glad you decided to come out and show yourself.... Goten!"
Goten blinked in confusion. Suddenly, out of nowhere, four straps zipped down and wrapped around the man's arms and legs and in an instant, he was quickly hauled away into whatever the straps were coming from, dissappearing himself in the blink of an eye.
"GOTEN!" Goku cried.
Valese gasped. "No! GOTEN!" she cried as she raced outside.
"Valese, no, don't go out!" Chi-chi called running after her. Videl followed, not wanting to be the only person inside.
Goku was about to fly up after his son when suddenly an aging atalantan appeared in his way, shoving him back to the ground in a single shove. "Well, hello there Goku," Spectra mused, "Long time no see. My, how you've shrunk! If we were to battle again, I'd probably take you out in a second!"
"What do you want with Goten??" Goku demanded.
"Remember our first battle?" said Spectra, "You were the official winner, y'know, even if I did deal the 'final blast'. However, I didn't notice until now that I had overlooked a very crucial rule in the Atalanta Games... if the winner is unable to marry the warrior, then marriage falls upon his unwed son. Since that one already seems to be taken," she gestured at Gohan, "I may as well go for the next best thing."
"No!!" Valese cried, "I won't let you!! Bring back Goten! NOW!"
Spectra twitched her nose, "And who are you? His wife?"
The girl blushed, "Well... um, I... uh..."
Spectra grinned, "Didn't think so. See, isn't this fair? I only took Goten because I wasn't sure how you'd react... whether you like the idea or not, he is officially mine."
"You know I didn't win, Spectra," said Goku, "And I don't care what your stupid laws say! Give us back Goten or else!"
"Or else what...?" the atalantan smirked.
"Or else I'll MAKE YOU!" Valese screamed, "I don't care who you are or what you've done! I won't let you take Goten away!!!"
Spectra scowled, "Damn... you seem attached to the boy," she muttered, but then smirked, "Tell ya what... if you love him the way you talk like you do, then I'll give you a chance to take him back. Y'know, just to show what a nice person I am. We'll hold a game... nothing like the traditional games, though. This time, if you win, you can keep Goten and I'll leave. However if I win, I'll marry Goten and kill you off!"
Valese gasped at the thought, which pleased Spectra very much. "It requires martial arts," the alien woman continued, "Intrested?"
"But... I don't even know how to fight!" said Valese.
Spectra smirked. "Pity."
"Why fight her when you can fight a REAL female warrior!" shouted Pan, "I'LL be your opponent!" The quarter-saiyan then jumped at Spectra, her fist extended.
"Pan, no!" Mr. Satan cried.
But it was too late. Pan was heading straight for the atalantan, ready to strike. But before she could even hit her, Spectra had simpily raised her hand and swatted the girl away. Pan landed on the ground below, immediatley losing conciousness. Mr. Satan wasted no time rushing to his granddaughter, scooping her up, and cradling her close. "Pan! Oh, Pan, sweetheart, are you allright? Don't worry honey, everything's going to be okay, just hold on!"
The sound of Spectra laughing turned everyone else's attention towards her. "If THAT'S the strongest female fighter you've got, then you're pretty much screwed!" she sneered, "I renounce my offer, and spare you your life, not to mention the humiliation." She grinned, "I hope you'll all be able to attend the wedding of Goten Son and Spectra, the greatest atalantan warrior to ever live! Heheheheh!"
Valese's fist shook in rage while everyone else looked helpless. All the sudden, the girl glared up fiercely at the alien. "NO!" she shouted, "I won't let you! I WILL fight you! And I will bring Goten back! You hear??"
Everyone looked at the burnette in shock. Spectra twitched her nose again, "Sheesh, you must have some kind of a death wish," she muttered, "Allright, tell ya what... I've waited twenty years for a husband, I can wait another week. You have until Saturday to train! I suggest you learn as much as possible, not like it matters anyway since I'm sure to be the victor." The female warrior floated upwards into her cloaked ship, "So long!" She dissappeared once entering.
Gohan rushed into the air, punching around, trying to feel the ship, but to no avail. "No!" he cried, "She must have taken it away already! We should've attacked it while we had the chance!"
"And risk injuring Goten?" said Goku, "We have no other choice but to have Valese save him..."
At this, Valese fell to her knees and wept into her hands, "Wh... what have I done? I don't know how to fight! I'll be killed! Worse... I'll lose Goten..."
Videl rubbed the girl's back, "Don't worry Valese," she assured, "I'll fight in your place, okay?"
"It's no good, Videl," said Goku, "Spectra will only kill you if you try to fight instead. Valese is the only person who can fight her."
"Then..." Mr. Satan murmured, "We're pretty much screwed?"
Valese continued to sob. Goku knelt down to her to try and look her in the eye as she was gazing downwards. "Valese, it'll be okay... I'll train you!"
The girl wiped her eyes and looked up at the boy. "You...?"
"But Dad," said Gohan, "Spectra gave us only a few days to train! It'll be impossible to get her up to Spectra's level from scratch!"
Goku stood back up and looked up at his son, smiling his well-known smile, "Teehee.... you forget. We've got the Hyperbolic Time Chamber!"
Everyone smiled at the thought. "Oh yeah, I forgot about that!" said Chi-chi.
"The Hyperbolic... what?" Valese blinked.
Gohan's smiled then faded. "No wait, it's no good," he said, "The entrance to the Time Chamber dissappeared when Piccolo destroyed the doorway from within, remember?"
Goku's smile didn't change. "Not quite," he smirked, "Can we say 'Instant Transmission'? As long as the dimension itself is located in the same spot, I can transport us in there."
"You can do that?" asked Videl.
Goku nodded, "It worked before when I infiltrated Spectra's spaceship. Hopefully, it should work for the time chamber as well."
"Could... somebody please tell me what you're all talking about?" Valese blinked.
"Oh, sorry," said Goku turning to her, "If we train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, that should give us plenty of time. In fact, if we start now, you may be able to reach Spectra's level in about three or four years."
"But Mr. Goku," said Valese, "We don't have three or four years! We've only got five days!"
"Let me finish," said Goku, "For every year that passes in the chamber, a whole day passes out here on Earth. So if we have five days here, then that means we've got up to five years in the Time Chamber!"
"Five whole years...?"
"Depending on how dedicated you are, it shouldn't even take that long," Goku extended his hand, "But it's your choice, Valese. It's up to you. Do you want to do this?"
Valese wiped away another tear, then smiled. "Of course! Anything to get Goten back!"
Goku smiled. "Okay then, let's go!" He levitated into the air, took Valese under her armpits, and took off into the sky, "See ya guys on Saturday!"
"Good luck!" called Gohan.
"Valese!" Chi-chi called, "You bring my little boy back in one piece, y'hear??"

A/N: I very much understand that this chapter is probably riddled with plotholes.... but then again, GT itself was riddled with plotholes, so there. :P
Just to let you know, this story doesn't fit into the official GT line. Think of it like one of the DBZ movies, since they never really fit the DBZ line either. I mean, when I start writing "Dragonball XG", Valese isn't going to be some strong She-Warrior who's suddenly five years older than Goten. In otherwords, this story is kinda out of place, but mainly written in defense of Valese (aka Paresu). Almost all the time you see fanfics where Bra suddenly trains and gets strong, and winds up with Goten in the end. Marron sometimes is written this way as well. But never Paresu, who is always portrayed as a self-centered bitch. Well, for once, here's a fanfic where SHE trains and gets strong and fights for Goten's love! Yay!
