Well I can still put full effort into each fic if I'm only working on one a day. I don't have to think about one while I'm writing the other, so every Wednesday is this fic. Thee is a schedule of all the fics in the Goten one.

chapter 2: Piccollo's spirit energy finally released!

"There he is! I sense him, just about a mile away," Goku spoke to himself. He was in a forest looking for Piccollo. Suddenly, two blue energy beams, which would look like floating streams of water to the average eye at first glance, came towards Goku's back out of nowhere! I've got to concentrate to find him... Goku was trying to sense Piccollo's power, but accidently he sensed the power of the energy beams instead. Without being surprised at all, he back flipped over the beams and by the time he'd landed they disinagrated into the air, as energy eventually does. Goku turned around ad started running in the direction the beams came from.

"He's coming this way! Its Goku, now I won't have to wait for the tournament!" Piccollo spoke to himself. He began to power up. Goku sensed the shift in power.

Oh no! He's even stronger now! I was only barely able to beat him at first, but now he'd defeat me like I was nothing! Goku thought. He was scared so he turned quikly, almost tripping and falling, and dashed away huridly. Suddenly, Piccollo jumped from the bushes and tried to punch him. Out of instinct Goku spun out of the way and flipped over the enamy's back. While hovering over the green alien he grabbed his shirt collar. He pulled Piccollo back by his grasp on the collar, right into the already extended fist of Goku's. Piccollo fell, but when he got back up, he was not amused.

"Is that the best you can do? And you're at least twice my size! Hahaha!" he mocked.

"Waaahh! Oh no..." Goku yelled in horror. He had landed on his bottom after the attack. He tried to scurry away quikly, very much like a scared dog, but his tail was caught by the opponent. Suddenly, a ball of light landed next to the evil warriror and his weakened opponent. When the light faded away, Kami was standing in its center. "Kami!"

"Kami!?" Piccollo growled.

"Yes it is I. Listen Piccollo, you want a good fight don't you?" Piccollo nodded in agreement. "Good. Then you'll listen to my offer. I am training Goku to become very powerfull. In two and a hals years, at the tournament, he'll have emense power, and will be able to put up a better fight, and a great challenge. Is your lust for revenge over your father so great you would not take the chance to do something you love to do, and fight a powerfull and worthy opponent?"

"Hhhhmmm...Fine. But Goku, know that in only a little less than three years, you will have to face me, and you will be defeated easily, because I will train too. I am growing faster do to being my father's reincarnation, because he was an adult when he died, so I'm quikly grrowing to fit into the form of his body. When we fight, you will be facing a warriror and a king, not a child," Piccollo bargained.

"Sure, just...Just let go of my tail....Nnnggh!" Goku struggled.

"Very well, we will all meet once again at the world's martial arts tournament," Kami concluded. Piccollo rose into the air and flew away.


"He was...I didn't know...I didn't know it was possible for ANYONE to be that strong!" Goku shook in fear.

"Goku, your training is not yet over. Do not fear, for when it is complete, and you are fighting in the tournament for the third time, I garentee you will face Piccollo and win, and I garantee you will win the entire tournament, after two times in which you got so close," Kami assured.

"Yeah...This time I'll win...This time I'm gonna show them that I'm the strongest in the world! And I will be once I've beaten te other contestants!" Goku jumped back on his feet.

This child was meant to some day save the Earth. I predicted it, Baba predicted it, Roshi predicted it...And now the predictions will come true...If I train him in time. Kami spoke in his head.

"Goku! Its time t get back to the lookout. I have a lesson to teach you...A history lesson..."

"Sure, as long as it'll help my training. Although I don't get how history will do that," Goku agreed.

As soon as they got to Karin's land, Kami took Goku on to his back, and flew upward to the lookout. When they got there, Mr. Popo brought a book out of the twemple. It was a fairly big and seemed to be a text book rather than a novel.

"This book contains the entire history of Mutiato's teachings. It will guide you through your training for your net few lessons," Mr. Popo explained.

"Mutiato? Hey, I met him when you put me in the Pendulum room thingy!" Goku informed.

"We know, he was the teacher of both the turtle and Crane hermits," Kami replied.

"WHAT!? So that guy that reminded me of Roshi...He actually WAS the old man? But how did he get so young looking?" Goku questioned.

"You travelled through time to when he was young and Mutiato was still alive," Mr. Popo explained.

"So Mutiato...He's dead?" Goku replied.

"Yes Goku, he died sealing Piccollo within a small box, using a technique known as the evil containment wave, but Pilaf opened the box, and you defaeted him finally. But of course the effort was futile, do to the fact that he is still alive in a younger form," Kami explained. "When he died, Roshi and Shin split his teachngs into two sides, the turtle and crane, each based on a differet aspect of his style of martial arts. You have learned the turtle style, and have become adept in its ranks, so we will teach you the crane style, and then continue with the training of my and Mr. Popo's and Piccollo's unique techniques."

"So I'll learn how to fly like Tien and Chioutzu? Awesome!" Goku exclaimed.

"Yes, and much more comes with it," Mr. Popo answered. Kami noticed the sun setting.

"Still, however, you haven't finished your mind training. You have to learn what Mr. Popo has been telling you. Remember, faster than lightning, but more suttle than a rock," Kami remembered. "Now start meditating, working on the mind, and we'll see you again tomarrow." Mr. Popo and Kami walked into the temple together as Goku sat down and started his meditation.
