Goku's daughter!

Chapter 3

Goku and Gohan finally touched down right outside their home. Goku had to keep himself from breaking down the door to reach his wife and baby girl.

"Alright Gohan, you can either go and train in the woods or you can help me surprise your mother. It's up to you." Goku crouched down and whispered.

Gohan whispered back, "I wanna see you get your surprise!"

Goku smiled at his little boy, "Alright, go on in and give me an entrance."

Gohan walked as calmly as he could through his front door and called, "Hey Mom! You remember when I surprised you at my piano recital with that song that was too hard for me but I played it anyway? Well, I've got something you're gonna love ten times more than that!"

"Oh, Gohan" Chi-Chi almost scolded as she was coming down stairs, "if this is another Icarus I am going to be so furi-" She stopped halfway down the stairs and her heart dropped into her stomach at the sight in the front door.

"Goku?" she whimpered.

"Hey Chi-Chi. Sorry I'm late." He said softly. Gohan ran upstairs past his mother to find his father's surprise.

"What? How are you here?" she breathed in disbelief.

"A space ship." He stated light-heartedly.

"Oh Goku!" Chi-Chi ran to her husband and crashed into him with tears in her eyes.

"You were gone for so long. A year and a half. A YEAR AND A HALF." She shouted. Chi-Chi was ecstatic that her husband was home, but that didn't mean she wasn't prepared to give him a piece of her mind.

"I'm sorry Chi-Chi! It's not like I wanted to be gone that long! Had I been able I would've been back here a year ago." Goku said truthfully.

"I know. I know." Chi-Chi eased off a bit. "It's just I've missed you so much. Gohan missed you. And you've missed a lot too. At least now things can get back to normal."

"Well..." Goku reluctantly said "You see, three years from now these two all-powerful Androids will show up and try to control all life as we know it. So Gohan and I have three years to train for this and be prepared."

"WHAT?!" Chi-Chi shouted. "It's one thing when you want to go off and train for three years, but when you bring our son into this then that is a totally different story! Gohan is NOT going to fight every day of his life like his father. He is going to stay in his room and study for a future that he deserves!" she ranted

"Chi-Chi, are you saying that Gohan's studies are more important than saving the Earth?" Goku asked reasonably. Then he looked at her with those eyes that she just could refuse and she broke.

"Oh, fine! But this is the last time you hear me?!"

Just his parents finished their 'Welcome home! I missed you so much!' argument, Gohan walked cautiously down the stairs with a pink blanket bundle squirming in his arms.

Goku froze. "Surprise Dad." Gohan said quietly trying not to disturb Isami.

Gohan handed over his sister to his mother who then proceeded to hand her over to Goku.

The bundle stopped squirming and looked up at her father. Her dark, brown, inquisitive eyes bore into him and just like that he was wrapped around her little finger. Goku walked over to a chair and sat not breaking eye contact.

"Her name is Isami." Chi-Chi said softly.

"Perfect." Goku mumbled.

One of Isami's arms poked out of the plushy, embroidered blanket and she jerked her hand up and down while giggling. Goku had the biggest grin on his face as she latched onto his enormous index finger. "She's got a grip." He said gently.

"She's your daughter." Chi-Chi said and chuckled. "I'll go get dinner started. Ham or turkey tonight."

"Both." Goku smiled at Chi-Chi who rolled her eyes and smirked I'm so glad he's home. She went to the kitchen to begin cooking the feast and Gohan followed leaving Goku and Isami a chance to catch up.

"I'm sorry I wasn't here to meet you sooner. I guess we have a lot to learn about each other. Don't worry, I think we'll get along just fine." Goku said. Isami smiled and giggled. I'm so glad I'm home.
