Ch. 3

It had all happened too quick. Goku also known as Kakarott had been about to continue his training in the realm of the dragon when Sakura had appeared out of nowhere with Piccolo into the realm.

Piccolo said that he would be taking Goku's place from now on since there were a couple of things that he needed to take care of on Earth. Things that he didn't know about but that it was agreed with the elders that it was the best choice to take if Goku traded places with Piccolo at the realm of the dragon.

All thru the time to which Sakura had flown next to him to reach Capsule Corporation, she spoke not one word. He knew who she was. Had known of her little escapades for as long as he could remember and had been missing her since the first time they had met on Earth a couple of years before he even married Chichi. He fancied himself stronger than her, but he knew it was not true for Sakura had always found a way of beating him in ways he could not even fathom. Sakura was a saiyan that had been alive for a lot longer than him. It was the first taste of her that made Goku realize he was not the only one with a monkey tail on his back.

Of course, the situation was still unclear as to why he was suddenly left to go free from his contract with the dragon. And Sakura made no comment even as she knocked the door of the gravity room in which Vegeta was training in at four in the morning. The saiyan prince had opened the door in a sudden blast of anger demanding who had dared to nag him out of his training and stopped when he saw Sakura. His eyes widened and a slow tint of red coming out of nowhere and slowly settling into his cheeks. His eyes went bigger and rounder when Goku saluted from behind Sakura a smile on his lips as he waved his hand in greeting. Then his eyes rolled backwards and he fainted.

Sakura only snorted as the saiyan prince was lying on the floor out cold. Goku had looked at Sakura silently wondering why he had reacted that way, but all she had said was a `don't ask.' She had knelt next to the prince to find out how long would it be for him to react and grunted.

She had told Goku to grabbed the ouji and to come into the house with her. When they had reached the living room, she had ordered him to drop the prince gently into the couch. She told him to stay put and to not move out of the living room until she came back. Said that everything else would be explained when she came back and Vegeta was awake to talk.

After she left, he had sat down on one of the cushions and wondered why he was at Capsule Corporation and not by Mount Poatzu to see his wife and sons. He had thought of going to see them for a second or two before Sakura came back, but decided against it when he thought of what kind of torture she could put him through if she found out that he had been away when he was supposed to stay put.

Then Chichi had come in and all he could do was restrain himself from shouting at her. She smelled of another man. The scent lingering in her aura far more longer than any other scent should have stayed. At first he thought he was dreaming the scent. It probably belonged to one of his friends. After all, they had dropped by a couple of times before so why should it make him uncomfortable. But, after briefly analyzing it, he had found out to his dismay that it was definitely not one of his friends. Then it probably meant one out of two things: either Chichi had gone to a doctor or she had another man in her life.

Which turned out to be the latter when after the initial shock of her saying that he had been gone for good, she had said `I'm in love with someone else'. Which also made him sad because she had not the sense of telling him before. Which was why he felt so frustrated. He could've done a lot of things differently in his life. But she had to keep appearances. He should've known then that she was having an affair. But hadn't he also forgotten amidst everything that kept being thrown his way that they should've gotten back to the church and get married again? He had forgotten. Had forgotten about it too and he had no reason to tell her that either because he had also forgotten. It wasn't her fault. It wasn't his fault either. It just hadn't worked because as soon as Chichi had found out about his true heritage, things had gone down the drain. He could understand that one thing was to think he was a strong guy and another was to believe he was a saiyan.

Then it was his fault for not explaining it to her that even though he seemed dumb he wasn't and even though he could probably get a job, he really didn't wanted to? Yup! It was his fault that he hadn't explained himself further to her. That he had agreed to marriage without even dating her yet. All for a stupid promise. He should've demanded that they get to know each other. But he had been naïve and he had let things run its course. Ah… he knew that pretending to be dumb had its bad influences. He knew that even when Bulma had tried to explain to him a thousand other things that he needed to know. Like how to read and write. His grandfather Gohan had taught him how to read and write. But he had also told him that people might be frighten if they knew the truth of him being stronger and to top it all an alien. He had been right. Bulma had been scared. Had he told her that he knew a lot more than she thought he did, she might've stopped being his friend altogether.

He was truly stumped. It was while he was eating that Sakura came into the kitchen startling Bulma.

"Who the hell are you?" - she asked trying not to shrink from this new person.

Bulma had noticed that even though her dear friend Goku had not stopped eating he had been clearly deep in thought. When this female had strolled into the house looking like a queen, she had been totally confused and scared. Not to mention that Goku had made no attempt to stand up and defend her which could mean two things, he trusted this female or he had known she was coming in peace.

"You kusottare! Did I or did I not tell you to stay put with the prince?! I could smack you for that!!"

"Hey! I asked you a question!" - asked Bulma not to gently.

"I heard. You don't need to scream at me. I heard you plain enough." - she grabbed a hold of Goku's ear and led him out of the room grumbling.

As they went through the door, Bulma heard the female calling for her and she walked into the living room finding Vegeta sitting there on the couch with her friend Goku at the floor who had been obviously thrown at it by the female.

"Before you start screeching and shooting questions and blame at me Mrs. Briefs I suggest that you do as I say and sit down on one of those chairs."

Bulma quickly sat down on another cushion that was directly in front of Goku and consequently Vegeta.

"Now. Both Vegeta and Kakarott know who I am. I think you need an explanation and I would gladly give it to you but certainly in another time. I need you to address Kakarott by his given name or else you can go out of this room on your merry ways. I don't care what you do, but you must call Kakarott by his name."

"Why? For all I know this is another-" - she stopped suddenly when her friend Goku raised a hand to stop her.

"Just follow her lead Bulma. It's okay. I don't mind you calling me Kakarott. It is after all my real name."

Dumbfounded silence surrounded the two other occupants of the room. Vegeta and Bulma looked at Goku completely and utterly shocked to the bone. Sakura only smirked at him knowing the whole truth. Finally someone dared to say something and it was Vegeta who spoke first.

"You mean you have known of your heritage for years?! Kakarott I am going to kill you."

"As if you could ouji." - said Sakura once again leaving both Bulma and Vegeta speechless.
