An Army of darkness began to march westwards across the plains of the sky. Their weapons, armour and shields pressed forwards ensnaring the heavens within their mighty grasp. Soon they engulfed the battlefield and raised their shields into the air in total victory; the mirror sheen coating on their shields revealed the sparkling stars as they celebrated by spreading their light down upon mankind. However the sun soon fought back against the darkness and eventually it drove them away to signal the dawn of a new day, deep within the heavens above stood the giant shrine of Kami’s lookout where peace was assured for those that travelled here. Inside the very dwelling of the shrine was a medium sized door made out of pure bronze wood, but it didn’t stay closed for long as a man with fairly big hands gently opened the door and stepped into a large bedroom. Stepping into the light the man revealed himself to be fairly chubby but had black skin and wore clothes that looked like something from the story Aladdin, this was of course the gentle hearted Mister Popo the loyal assistant to Kami and caretaker of the lookout. It looks as though Mister Popo didn’t have much as far as strength and power, but don’t judge a book by its cover. Gently he entered the room and saw the sleeping Goten who had a smirk on his face. With a smile Mister Popo placed a tray down on the table inside Goten’s room and gently headed northwards and exited the room by gently closing the door. Sitting on the tray was a bowel full of freshly cooked rice and a glass of milk that sat beside the bowel.
The smell of breakfast woke up Goten’s nose as he slowly sniffed the air. Groaning a little bit Goten soon stirred a little bit and slowly rolled over to one side, but there was a tiny problem there was no side to roll on to as he had lain near the right edge of the bed! And thus he fell off the bed and landed headfirst onto the floor. Feeling the pain Goten immediately woke himself up and was literally running left and right holding his head and said “Ow, Ow, Ow, Ow, Ow!” but he soon stopped and rubbed his head with his left hand. With a sigh Goten marched towards the bathroom and turned on the tap of hot and cold water for the morning bath to prepare himself for some more training with Kami, so far his training has been going well. As the bath was filled up with water Goten turned the taps off with his left hand and soon got himself undressed, with a smile he jumped into the water and soaked himself within its gentle nutrients. He soon grabbed his toys and had a happy time within the bath while enjoying some playtime with some of his favourite toys, half an hour passed and Goten jumped out of the bath itself and unplugged it so that the water would drain away. He then grabbed a towel and dried himself to get rid of any water drops on his body, a few seconds later Goten quickly headed over towards his training clothes and slipped on his orange trousers and pulled them up over his waist. Next he placed his navy blue shirt above his head, pulled it down over his head and down over his waist, his orange shirt was then grabbed and again he slipped it on over his navy blue shirt and pulled the shirts underneath his orange trousers. With a few components left he went onto his boots next and slid his feet into the appropriate slots of his boots and tied up the string to make sure they were tight. Finally to complete his training uniform Goten took hold of his black belt, placed it around his waist and tied it up on the right side of his waist while letting it flow down.
With a smirk he dashed over towards the table and quickly sat in his chair. Picking up the bowel of rice with his right hand he used his left hand to pick up the chopsticks and began to gobble away at his breakfast. Just like any other Saiyan Goten moved at a fast past and not letting a single piece of food get away from his hungry mouth and stomach. But he then placed the bowel down onto the table and sighed happily while quickly guzzling down the milk to wash down the rice he had. As a smirk crept up on his face Goten jumped down from his table and headed towards the door, there he opened it and stepped outside to see the bright blue sky of the new day. Closing the door behind him Goten moved eastwards threw the shrine and then headed southwards until he exited the shrine itself and stepped out into the open to see his new mentor Kami staring down onto the world below, his blue cape gently flowed around him. But he soon sensed Goten’s presence and turned around to look towards his new student, Goten instantly placed his legs together, his feet together and the palms of his hands together while bowing his head in respect and said “Oh! Good morning mister Kami!” the Guardian of the Earth gently bowed his head in return and replied “It truly is Goten how do you feel this fine morning?” Goten walked over towards his mentor and then stopped by rubbing the back of his head with a grin “Well apart from falling out of bed I feel just fine! Heh, Heh, Heh, Heh!” Kami smiled back and still couldn’t believe that Goten was so fun loving and so full of life and yet the tyke was growing stronger and stronger with each training session he had been put through.
Without a moment to lose Kami continued to smirk and said “Heh, well then shall we begin today’s training?” Goten soon nodded to Kami and said “ Uh Huh!” While showing Kami his pearly whites with an exciting grin. He then walked towards the centre of the circle platform and stood ready while Kami nodded and watched as Goten headed towards the centre and then as he did he spoke to Goten and said “Very well Goten this time I want you to find me, not tag me. Use your training and remember use your mind to try and find me”. With that said he used his agility to disappear in mid air leaving Goten standing alone on the platform, looking focused Goten moved his eyes, west and east as he scanned the area with his eyes and mind. He remained as calm as he could be and focused on the area around him, he then moved his head and looked upwards and then to the right and left. But soon his newly awakened senses told gave him and signal and then quickly turned around and fire an orange Ki blast towards the southern section of the Lookout. Gritting his teeth Goten hoped that his new senses didn’t fail him but he soon smirked as Kami reappeared and barely dodged the Ki blast in time. Kami floated over towards Goten and smiled to him while saying “Very nicely done Goten! You have mastered the art of sensing people around you. Now then let us move on! I would like to watch you while you train just to see what your mother has taught you, pretend this just a normal day of training with your mother”. Looking surprised Goten soon nodded his head and said “ Oh, Ok!” and he soon sat himself down and them stretched out his legs. Then he placed his hands on his left knee and pushed his body forwards in the same direction of his left leg and did this about thirty times, next he moved onto the other leg and did the same. Kami watched him like as hawk as Goten then picked himself up and then got into handstand position while placing his hands on the ground and stretched his legs upwards towards the sky.
Slowly he pushed downwards towards his hand which made his arms bend a little bit and went into a rhythm. Goten kept his eyes looking downwards at his hands as he placed his body weight onto his hands, he kept track of his progress by counting each time he pushed downwards. Once again his determination to protect his mom drove him onwards and starting saying “ And a 1…. 2…3” As he slowly moved a little faster with each push him he made. Several hours later Goten pushed onwards as he did some more handstands push ups, even though sweat formed on his face he pushed forwards without any hesitation, a few more hours passed and Goten started to struggle as a puddle of sweat was formed in the middle between his hands. His hands started to twinge while his legs started to throb, he gritted his teeth as he slowly moved up towards the 5,000 mark, finally he pushed downwards and said “ Arghhh! F…. Five…Thou…sand!” And quickly he fell to the floor face first and breathed in and out gasping for breath. Kami knelt down and said, “ Your mother must have trained you very hard Goten. Please take a rest and we will get some well deserved lunch”. Luckily Goten rolled away just in time to stop himself from landing in the pool of sweat but he soon slowly moved his arms slowly he pushed himself upwards and lifted his head to look up towards the smiling Kami and gave him a gentle nod.
A few minutes later Goten was sitting down and was busy eating away at a bowl of noodles and meat buns. With thanks to Mister Popo and his natural gift of cooking, Kami watched with glee as Goten munched down the noodles with his chop sticks and then grabbed two meat buns and placed them inside his mouth until he had a big mouthful and gobbled them up together. And to finish things off he drank a glass of milk and then handed the empty bowl and glass to Mister Popo while saying “ Ah that sure hit the spot! Thanks Mister Popo!” as the assistant took the bowl and glass away Kami soon said, “ Shall we continue?”. Goten soon nodded happily and soon stood in the centre of the lookout, there he stood into an attack position and punched the air in front of him by pushing his left arm forwards with a clenched fist. Then he continuously punched the air as fast as he could in a fast like rhythm instead he then pushed his right arm forwards with another clenched fist until he was punching the air with his left fist first and then his right. Usually he would train by punching the arm with just one hand but this time he’d try using both while aiming at a certain number. As Goten trained as much as he could Kami kept an eye on his posture and his form in the martial arts and everything seemed to be fine. But he spoke inside his mind while saying “ Goten has grown strong during his training, his devotion and love for his family is truly remarkable. Like father, like son”.
Goten shouted out as which increased the power of his punches from left to right and continued onwards. Several hours later the seven-year-old boy continued onwards with his training, sweat dropped from his face and knuckles as he punched the air continuously. But despite the pressure straining on his arm muscles he continued forwards, another hour passed and Goten lowered his arms, as they felt completely painful. But he soon moved to kicking the air by pushing his foot forwards and again he kicked the air multiple times by using his legs one at a time. Even a few more hours passed and Goten stood still for a few moments, he bent down and placed his hands on both of his knees and breathed in and out while letting the sweat drop down to the floor. Kami wondered over to his young student and placed his green hand on the boy’s shoulder and said “ You have done much Goten perhaps we should have two more training sessions and call it a day”. He soon took his hand away and walked towards the front of the nearly exhausted Goten, with a nod the pure hearted Saiyan hybrid stood back up and watched as Kami stood before him. This time Kami stood ready and said, “Goten when you are ready let us see if you can catch me this time!” Goten sighed a little and soon stood ready despite the pain in his arms and legs, narrowing his eyes he flew forwards using his energy but he increased his flight speeds to the maximum and headed straight for Kami who was quite surprised by Goten’s flight speed. But he soon disappeared before the boy could even grab him, but he soon used his senses and flew straight towards Kami’s direction and they soon found themselves moving all around the outside of the Lookout as Goten did his best to keep up with Kami. An hour later and Goten fell to the floor on both knees and placed his hands on the ground to stop himself from literally falling to the floor but he gasped and breathed in and out as he tried to grab as much air as he could.
Goten gritted his teeth in utter determination and slowly he picked himself up once again and barely stood before Kami. The Guardian of the Earth saw his student’s struggle and said to Goten “Goten I think that will be enough. You have worked very hard and should deserve a good rest and some sleep. It will be dark soon,” he said as he gazed towards the skies of his realm, the boy slowly sighed in relief and said “Is it time for dinner mister Kami?” The wise namekian happily nodded and slowly he stood beside Goten just incase he need help and soon they slowly walked back to the shrine with Goten limping his way there. Heading westwards they soon arrived back in Goten’s room and slowly Kami opened the door and watched as Goten jumped up onto the chair which sat before his table. He gasped in sure delight as there sitting before him was a large full of egg rolls, a chicken drumstick and a glass of fresh milk. Kami watched happily as Goten used picked up a folk and began to eat the egg rolls one by one, then moved to the chicken drumstick by grabbing the bone end with his right hand and tore off the cooked flesh with his teeth. While Goten was having his dinner Kami walked towards him and said “I must attend to my duties as Guardian of the Earth Goten, please eat and sleep well. We have much to do tomorrow!” Goten swallowed his bitten dinner and quickly said “ Oh! Ok! Good night Mister Kami!” he said after jumping off his chair and bowing before his mentor. Kami smiled and soon closed the door while Goten got back to his dinner and finished it off which was followed quickly by drinking his glass of milk.
With a satisfying sigh he headed over to the bathroom, took off his training gear and had a quick bath to wash away any sweat that was left on his body. A few minutes later he slipped on his pyjamas and crawled up into bed, placing his head on the soft pillow he slowly drifted off to sleep while Kami kept watch from behind the bedroom door.
