Trunk's POV:

We begin packing our armor (mine looking like my fathers) when my grandmother comes up giving first my father a big hug (not to happy about that) and then me. My dad flusters in anger yelling "dammit woman this is an important mission we don't have time to act all 'happy'" he was sure to emphasize the word happy with air quotes.

His scorn didn't seem to affect her in the slightest because she just hugged him again (she has been know to be over excited at times) so he just let her knowing that there was no fighting with this woman. "I just wanted to come give you a special gift" she says showing both of us a whole box full of her best rice cakes (probably not going to last us long in the first place) that he immediately throws in this suitcase.

"Not the best food in the world but I'll take 'em" he says as fast as he could in order to change the subject. I roll my eyes putting the last of my things into my backpack when we head down the stairs to be stopped by my grandfather. "Well I guess this is goodbye son" he says to my dad when he scoffs "don't you ever call me that again or I'll snap your neck" but he doesn't back away he only smirks.

"You know that Bullma would kick your ass if you did and not every York super sayain powers could stop that" knowing he lost my father just pushes his way through to get outside. Once the door was open we find that everyone was waiting for us and cheering on our departure. "God dose everyone want to delay our trip" he says faceplaming as he continue down the trail without making eye contact with me close behind.

Throughout the crowd we hear the cheers of everyone like "good luck or don't die" (the first was Goku and the other was Piccolo who didn't really care to much about Vegeta) but there was another I got out from ChiChi "where's Goten?" though I didn't pay that much attention to where he was at the moment.

I try to pick up where my father lacked by waving goodbye and thanking them when he my father interrupts "you can quit the friendly act where on the ship already" I look up noticing that I had climbed up the ramp without knowing it (don't ask me how I didn't notice walking on board).

He presses the button next to the ramp lifting it up as I continue wavering until it closed. I set my bag down next to my seat when he says "sit down, strap in , and shut up, where going to be taking off" I don't question him as I strap one across my waist and two across my chest. "In three, two, one, liftoff" he counts down when we lift off into space instantly pushing me down in my seat with the g-pressure layer down on my body.

My fathers head turns around with a smirk "you act as if this is your first time" his laughter rings around the pod as I try to spit out "that's because it is" and he laughs even harder. Once we are I space he presses a single button as the automated voice says "artificial atmosphere activated" which was the sign that I could unstrap myself. "It might be a while so we should spar for a bit" he says going over to the gravity controls pressing a few buttons.

After a few beeps the gravity begins to push upon my person making me fall to the floor in surprise which is followed by laughter. He walks up to my side, obviously unaffected by this kind of pressure, saying with a smirk "can't handle that it's only half of what I can handle" but I raise my head without any effort knowing my plan had worked. "Nope just messing with you" and I begin to rush him with a set of punches.

Two Hours Later:

He punches me in the stomach making me throw up a bit of the rice cake I had had a few minutes ago hence ending the spar for the hour. "Damn you boy, you got vomit on my glove" he says flicking the mess off his glove and onto a wall that...screamed? "What the show yourself intruder" my father says powering up a ki blast for a threat.

The intruder slowly pops up from behind the closet to reveal the now vomit covered Goten as he mumbles "um hello Mr. Vegeta please don't blast me" so he snuffs out the ki from his hand. I run up to Goten felling both confused and happy "why did...how did you get...on...the...ship" I question as he walks over to the nearest towel to clean hisself off.

My father also follwed wanting to know as much as I did when Goten says as he scratches the back of his head with a frown "why are you asking you obviously know I sneaked in" and we both fall to the ground in shock. "Damn you kid were going to be stuck with you the entire trip" he says lifting himself off the ground and over to the now ringing transmission.

He presses the button to see Goku and ChiChi staring at him on the other side and ChiChi didn't look happy. "Um Vegeta, here's a question for ya...is my son on board?" he scratches the back of his head when I nod my head slowly. That must have been the sign for ChiChi to go on rage mode "GOTEN! Get over here to the screen right now" she screams as Goten cowers I fear but compiles.

She yells at him for a few minutes until she was done with him and into Vegeta "it's to late to bring him back so you better watch him or I'm going to kick your ass!" he backs away in fear just as he would if that was my mother. "Ok ok ChiChi calm down, see you later" Goku then ends the transmission sooner than it began.

"Guess our trip is going to have another member" he says obviously unhappy with the situation he had been delt but without any other options. He turns to the glass seeing that the had reached there destination...Namek.

On Namek:

The pod finally touches down as we put on our armor minus Goten who had already been wearing his Gi. "Well this is it were finally on Namek now do you have the dragon radar" my dad asks me as I pull out the radar from my backpack. "Yep right here" I shake the device around in my hand before we walked out onto the blue grass.

I press the button to show where the dragon balls where located when I see that one was located right next to us. "That's great there's one under our pod" I say climbing under to grab it as Goten looks around with my father. I dig down a few inches until I find it shinning at my face lighting up the entire underbelly of the ship. "The four star ball that's great" I smile rolling out from under the ship to find both my father and Goten looking up in fear when a power just suddenly popped above my head.

The person I saw didn't seem familiar but from my fathers story's I somehow knew who it was. "Hello boy you must be Vegeta's son, if you wouldn't be so kind as to hand me that dragon ball" the figure says levitating to ground level. It was Frezia and he was right in front of me.

Bum Bum Bum! That's a real twist in the plot but there is still more to come later on I the next chapter of this great book. Hope you've enjoyed and keep those votes coming.
