94 Raditz Part: 1 (1/2)
Launch, Kukummer and I flew towards Son Goku's and ChiChi's small home.
”Hello, anyone home?” I asked as I knocked on the door.
The door was opened to reveal a four-year-old Son Gohan.
”Uncle Tom!” Gohan said excitedly, ”Aunty Launch! Kukummer!”
”Huh? Oh, hey guys! You're a little early aren't cha?” Goku who previously was inside eating asked.
”Yeah, well... the early bird gets the worm, you know all that stuff,” I said with a grin.
”Well come on in, you guys just make yourselves comfortable while Gohan and I get ready for going to Kame House,” Goku said happily, ”...Right after this meal”
”Oh, hello Tomant, Launch, Ku-chan, how are you three?” ChiChi asked as she walked up to us.
”Ah, work's going pretty well, Dr Briefs pays quite a pretty penny, hey... have you ever thought of getting Goku to work as security too? I mean, I could hire him as the new Chief of Security” I said, casually dropping the fact that I got a promotion into the conversation.
”Oh, you'd do that? Well, it would be nice to rely on something other than daddy's money... but do you think Goku would actually work there?” ChiChi asked.
”As long as I just tell him that we'd be sparring daily, getting food and he'd be making his family happy, I'm pretty sure he'd agree on the spot, remember. I practically helped raise the guy, I know how he thinks” I said with a smirk, ”Just gotta figure out how to slip it into casual conversation...”
”Slip what into casual conver-something?” Goku asked as he appeared out of nowhere.
”Gah! Ah, nothing... nothing at all” I said as I waved my hands frantically.
”Oh, okay... well, we're ready, so let's go,” Goku said with an enthusiastic grin.
”Alright then, to Kame House!” I shouted as Launch and Kukummer flew beside me, while Goku was holding Gohan in his arms as he flew.
After around ten minutes of flying, we made it to Kame House to meet Master Roshi, his student Krillin, Oolong and Bulma Briefs.
”Hello!” Goku said as he flew down to the island Kame House was located on.
”Goku! Wait, who are they?” Krillin asked as he pointed at Launch, Kukkumer and I.
”Oh, well Tomant here is practically my brother in all but blood, he helped train me with Grandpa Gohan before... that, happened... that's his wife Launch and their son Kukkumer” Goku said happily.
”Oh, okay... wait, who's the kid in your hands?” Krillin asked.
”Ah, he's my kid, Son Gohan” Goku said with a grin.
”Hello,” Gohan said with a small bow.
”It's nice to meet you,” Bulma said with a smile before turning to me, ”Hey... do I know you from somewhere?”
”Ah, I asked you for the dragon ball radar about... eight years ago? Yeah, eight I think” I said.
”Yeah, you were with some pale guy with long black hair, what happened to him? Did he turn out to be an evil villain or something like that wishing for immortality?” Bulma asked.
”No, actually. He's working with Dr Briefs on the creation of the androids, and while he does know the secret of immortality he hasn't told anyone yet, and I would know... he's, sort of... what's the word... not slave... minion? Peon? Servant? Whatever, basically he's undyingly loyal to me and me alone, which is a bit frustrating at times, like... why can't most of them ever just do stuff by themselves without being told to! The only ones with even a semblance of individuality are Sebastian, Alucard and fucking Lelouch! But I digress... annoyingly loyal servants aside... uh, what were we talking about?” I asked sheepishly.
