Cell was finally destroyed and peace was on the planet once again. The young saiyan known as Gohan defeated the monster in a desperate battle for the Earth's life. With a mighty Kamehameha blast, and the help of his father, he destroyed the monster Cell and never came back for a round three.

Chi-Chi was proud of her son but the lost of her dear husband hurt her dearly. Chi-Chi, being as strong as she was, kept her hopes up to see him once again. She was having her second child and was thrilled to have another baby in the house. Gohan seemed to be taking his father's death rather well and kept up his studies though the thoughts of the Cell games still haunted him.

Chi-Chi was close to her child's birth date and couldn't wait to have her second son. Gohan was thrilled to no end and couldn't wait for his brother to be born. But Gohan's small happiness took a turn and became somewhat ill. It was a slight fever at first and then the dizzy spells came into effect. Once he passed out at Capsule Corps while eating dinner and even at the store. Chi-Chi became rather worried but then one day they disappeared.

Gohan was doing his studies while Chi-Chi cleaned the house up a bit. Her stomach got in the way half the time but she managed to clean the top shelf without knocking anything off the bottom. She looked at the shelf and nodded in approval. She heard Gohan's door open slightly and saw her son walking a bit out of step.

" Gohan," Chi-Chi said a bit surprised and worried. " Are you okay?"

Gohan didn't speak at first and was trying hard to get to his mother. He stopped mid way and looked up at his mom. His eyes were clouded and Chi-Chi became worried to no end.

" I-I'm sorry," Gohan said in a whisper and then collapsed to the ground.

Chi-Chi ran to his side instantly and shook her son. When that didn't work she called Bulma and told her about Gohan. Bulma came by and Vegeta came to check on the brat of Kakkorot. Chi-Chi managed to pull Gohan to his bed when Bulma arrived and did a check up on Gohan.

" Not this again," Vegeta said to himself as Bulma and Chi-Chi were in Gohan's room. He had baby Trunks standing next to him with his thumb in his mouth. " I thought his attacks were done. He probably just passed out. Damn brat."

" Wait a while and see if he wakes up," Bulma said looking at Chi-Chi. " He should be up in a couple of hours. Don't sweat it so much. It was probably an attack that took a while to hit."

" I hope you're right," Chi-Chi said.

But they were wrong.

Gohan didn't wake up and it was already a few days. Chi-Chi was in labor and Vegeta had to stay with Gohan to tell him about his mother when he woke up. Gohan never did and Vegeta was now getting worried. He never slept this long. Vegeta slapped him in the face and it didn't faze Gohan one bit. He just laid there as if nothing had happen.

When Chi-Chi came home the first thing she did was check on Gohan. Sadly he wasn't awake and he didn't see his little brother, Goten. She finally called the doctor to look at her son and he noticed what was wrong.

" Your son Gohan seems to be in a coma," the doctor said. " A deep one as I can see it. It may be weeks, months, even years before he wakes up again. His body won't need any fuel but since he'll be going through puberty he might need to be tube fed."

" Will he digest the food even though he's in the coma," Chi-Chi asked as she rocked the baby Goten in her arms.

" Yes. The body will get rid of the waste the way it usually does so you might be changing two diapers instead of one. He will only need to be fed once every two months. Hopefully he'll wake up soon."

" I hope so," Chi-Chi said looking at Gohan. " He wanted to see his baby brother."

The doctor wished the best of luck Chi-Chi and left. Many months have passed and Gohan didn't even open an eye. She asked for Bulma and Vegeta to help her and they did; though Vegeta was forced. He had to be fed and changed but Chi-Chi didn't mind much. Trunks and Goten would play while Chi-Chi changed Gohan's sheets. Vegeta had to hold Gohan and Bulma kept an eye on the babies. Vegeta didn't mind at first until part of his arm was wet.

" Great," Vegeta said as he noticed the wet spot on Gohan's sweat pants. " Your brat soiled himself on my arm!"

" Oh sorry Vegeta," Chi-Chi said heading towards the drawer. " I guess he wasn't empty after all."

" Funny."

Chi-Chi put new clothes on Gohan and laid him back on the bed. She watched him as he slept and let Goten look at his sleeping brother. Goten crawled over to Gohan and gooed. When he noticed that he didn't respond he lightly slapped him. His brother made no movement and Goten thought it was funny pulling on his brother's hair. He stopped laughing when Gohan didn't respond and looked at his brother.

" Gowan," Goten said pulling at his brother's hair. Chi-Chi noticed her baby say his first words and started to cry.

" Yes Goten," Chi-Chi said sitting next to the bed. " That's your brother Gohan. He's in a deep sleep right now so he can't play. He'll wake up one day, I hope."

" Gowan," Goten said once again. " Gowan Gowan Gowan Gowan Gowan Gowan!"

Goten became fond of his new word. Gowan soon became Go-on and then finally Gohan. Goten was now seven. My how children grow fast. Gohan was eighteen and he had grown a lot. Chi-Chi had to cut his hair a few time because along with the body growing, so was the hair. It was now short with a bang dangling on his face. He was still sleeping.

" Mommy," Goten cried as he ran into Gohan's room. " Guess what Trunks's dad said?"

" What did he say," Chi-Chi asked as she put the book down.

" He said that Kakka- something or another is coming back for a day to enter the WMAT. He said that Kakka-dude was my father. I thought his name was Goku?"

" That's great news," Chi-Chi cried as she scooped Goten in a big hug. " You'll finally get to see your father Goten! What should I wear? What meal should I prepare? Oh Goten I'm so happy! Your father's coming home Gohan, he's coming home!"

Gohan made no movement and just slept there. Chi-Chi put Goten down and sat in the chair next to his bed. She hoped that maybe the news would make Gohan wake up, or at least get some movement out of him, but nothing happened. The happiness soon disappeared and Goten noticed the change in his mother.

" What's wrong Mommy," Goten asked sitting on his mom's lap.

" I thought Gohan would be happy that's all," Chi-Chi said looking at Gohan. " I was hoping for something from him but instead I got nothing. Maybe when Goku comes back he'll wake up. So I hope."

The tournament came rather quickly but Chi-Chi could not leave Gohan's side. If he woke up he would have no idea what happen to his grown body or the action figures spread all over his room. She couldn't leave him but she wanted to see Goku so badly. Oh how she missed her husband dearly but her children came before anything.

" I'll keep an eye on him," Yamcha said on the phone. " Just tell Goku to drop by before he leaves. Go see your dead husband. You need a vacation anyway."

" Thanks Yamcha," Chi-Chi said. " If I can't wake Gohan up then I know Goku can."

So the tournament came and Chi-Chi went with the others. Yamcha stayed with Gohan while everyone else went to see their dead friend.

" Is he here Mr. Piccolo," Goten asked.

" Not yet," Piccolo replied. " He will be soon."

As if on cue, Goku appeared out of nowhere with Baba by his side. His friends and family all ran up to him for a big hug. Goku noticed a mini version of himself behind Chi-Chi and pointed.

" Who are you," Goku asked as he bent down to Goten's level.

" I'm Goten," the young saiyan replied.

" I'm Goku."

There was a long silence before Goten ran up to his father in a hug himself. Goku laughed and tossed Goten in the air. Goku stopped when he noticed someone missing.

" Where's Gohan?"

There was a hard silence in the group and no one dared to speak.

" He's sleeping," Vegeta said.

" Why didn't you wake him up," Goku asked confused.

" He's been sleeping for seven years," Vegeta said walking away.

" Sleeping?"

" He's in a coma," Chi-Chi said looking at her husband. " He hasn't woke up yet and hopefully you can."

" When did he get into a coma," Goku asked.

" A few days before Goten was born."

" Did he say anything?"

" All he said was that he was sorry," Chi-Chi said. " I don't know what he was sorry for but," Chi-Chi smiled. " You'll see him but I came here for some fun. Good luck Goku and you too Goten."

" Bye Mom," Goten said waving good bye.

" See you guys later," Goku said with a wave also. ' Gohan's in a coma? I wonder why he didn't wake up yet.'

Meanwhile…

" I can feel Goku's energy," Yamcha said with a huge smile on his face. " Man, it's good to know that he's back. Hey Gohan, can you feel your dad's energy? Makes you want to get up out of bed and run to him huh?"

Gohan still laid there sleeping and not one fidget was made. Yamcha sat down on a chair and looked at Gohan. He had grown since the last time he saw him and man did he grow. His hair wasn't as long but he did keep his well-built body. Gohan had on a tank top and a pair of sweat pants since anything else he would wear was too big or too small. He just laid there.

" Aren't you ever going to wake up? You have a little brother now and your mother is worried sick about you. Your dad is back but only for a day and I know you want to see him. C'mon Gohan, wake up!"

Gohan still slept.
