Father and Son (Solo/Flashback - 20G)

This is a story that happened nearly eleven years ago, on Planet Natto, when the Saiyan Alliance was experiencing its golden age of both peace and prosperity, thanks to the might Natto and Tomoroko, who managed to create an environment where saiyans, sick of the Saiyan Empire’s ways, could start over, while keeping their culture and society. Back at the time, their eldest son was just ten years old, but already showing to be quite a prodigy in terms of mastery over his own ki. He trained a lot with his parents, especially with his father, whom he admired above everyone else.

Nasu, the young saiyan boy was already with a quite amazing power level of six thousand despite his young age, and was already submitting himself to gravity training with his father. The two saiyans were inside the gravity chamber of the Star Javelin, Natto’s mothership. Natto, the Alliance’s Overseer standing 5’9” and quite bulky, while his son was still quite skinny, weighting about 55 lbs. standing at a 4’4” in height. Father and son were training at twenty times Earth’s gravity, or two times Natto’s gravity, depending on which measure system one would use to make a comparison. The Star Javelin used earthling parameters, since it was improved to its peak of technology while the Alliance was still with headquarters on Earth.

– Yaaaaahhhh!!! – The saiyan boy roared as he came flying towards his father, throwing himself like a rocket, aiming a haymaker at Natto’s face. Natto, however, in a swift motion, side stepped to his right and used his left knee to deliver a powerful ascending vertical strike to Nasu’s stomach, making the kid spit and groan in pain. The kid’s body was sent flying upwards, but before it went much higher, Natto put both his hands together and stroke his son with a powerful sledgehammer, sending the kid back to the titled floor of the gravity chamber. Nasu hit it hard and screamed in pain, getting even angrier.

– DAMMIT!!!! – the young boy frowned his brows and gritted his teeth, harvesting all of his inner power to flare his ghostly-white ki aura that looked exactly like a smaller version of his father’s own and rushed towards him again, sending a flurry of punches aiming at Natto’s face and upper chest. The older saiyan chuckled a bit and cracked a subtle smile as he skillfully avoided all of his kid’s punches like it wasn’t even a bother. It even seemed like Natto wasn’t even trying hard.

The bare-chested saiyan dodged the flurry of punches up until he noticed that the speed between them decreased just a little and then, seizing such a golden opportunity, he caught Nasu off-guard by crouching a bit and throwing a powerful hook to the gut. Nasu widened his eyes and spit again, falling to his knees with both arms around his stomach. He was about to complain, but then he saw his father flaring his own ki aura and that made his eyes widen even further and his brows to arch.

– Crap baskets!! – the kid exclaimed in fear as the mighty saiyan warrior dashed towards him, throwing a powerful roundhouse kick right to his face, sending him flying away, sailing through the air adrift until he hit one of the walls of the gravity chamber. Nasu screamed in pain as he hit it. – ARRRGGHH!!! – and then he fell to the ground. The kid was now panting heavily. The older saiyan stopped where he was and folded his arms, staring at the kid as if he was trying to analyze if Nasu still had some fight in him. He leaned his head to the side a bit before speaking.

– You alright, son? – he asked with a tad bit of concern. The gravity didn’t seem to bother Natto at all, but it was draining Nasu way too fast, and it was still the beginning of this long training session. Nasu didn’t answer just yet, instead he kept on panting heavily and exhaling sharply, showing he was into some serious pain. Natto grew a bit more concerned. – Wanna call it a day?! If you do it’s fine! – he said, making the suggestion. But then, Nasu cracked a mischievous grin on his face, seeing that his father had finally lowered his guard enough so that he could take an advantage of that.

– I want… To blow your face!!! – he roared as he flared his ki aura once again, charging straight towards his father while charging a fiery-like blue-colored ki around his right clenched fist. Once he got into melee range with a still stunned Natto unable to react, he threw the punch hitting his father right on the left cheek, where he sported the cross-shaped scar, his most distinguishing feature. – Tyrant Lancer!! – Nasu exclaimed upon hitting his target. Natto’s head was throw backwards by the impact and, as soon as it created some distance in between then, Nasu opened his palm and fired the remaining of his energy in the form of an energy wave, hitting his father’s face once again. Smoke took over the place and Nasu leaped backwards to put some distance in between them again and, as he realized he had succeeded in hitting his father, he couldn’t help but to smile and laugh in excitement.

– I did it! I hit you dad!! See?! I’m a true warrior! Hahahaha! – he said, laughing, proud of his almost impossible accomplishment. When the smoke cleared, Natto was there, with a proud smile on his face, staring at his kid. The older saiyan folded his arms and chuckled a bit, shaking his head.

– What a tricky boy! You caught me off-guard when I was concerned with you! Hahaha! I’m proud! You actually managed to hit me! Meaning I can go a little harder on you from now on! – Natto said with a lot of excitement in his tone. Nasu, proud as he always was, cracked a mischievous smirk once again, chuckling a bit as he slid back into his yet unpolished fighting stance.

– Bring it on, dad! I will show you I can hit you again no matter the odds! – he said with a confident tone and Natto chuckled back, having a lot of fun in that training session. – Keep up like that and your power level will grow even further, Nasu! And one day you will become stronger than me and your mom! – Natto said, making Nasu’s heartbeat race like crazy. To be stronger than his father was his dream, and, most of the time it seemed almost unreachable, but on some particular occasions, such as this one, he felt that there was hope, and that hope was the fuel of his determination. Not that Nasu wanted to take Natto’s place. Nothing like that, but he wanted to be strong like his father and in order to do that he had to train even harder. – You are already stronger than I was on your age, you know? – he told his kid, with a nostalgic expression on his face. Nasu was quick to nod, as he knew by heart almost all of his dad’s stories and adventures.

– I know! Your power level was just twelve hundred when you came back from Felucia and met your parents again! I’m already at six thousand! I’m nearly three times stronger than you were in my age! Hehehe! – Nasu said, proudly and Natto nodded, even more proud.

Then, the older saiyan walked towards the gravity panel and that made Nasu arch one of his eyebrows, not understanding what Natto was going to do. – Hey dad, I still want to train! Don’t turn off the gravity! – Nasu deduced he was going to end the training session for a while, but then Nasu chuckled in a mischievous tone and stared back at his son with the corner of his eyes. – I’m not. Actually I’m going to increase the gravity! Hehehe! We are going to train at thirty times Earth’s gravity now! – and when Natto said that, Nasu’s eyes widened and his jaw dropped in complete surprise.

– T-thirty times?! – he gulped. Natto nodded and chuckled a bit. – Yeah, thirty times! I’m sure you can handle it after what you’ve just showed me! And also… It will help you grow even stronger! Isn’t that what you want, Nasu?! – Natto said, knowing the kid would most definitely be tempted with the promise of power; he knew just how ambitious his son was. Nasu blinked twice and stood silent for a second as he weighted whether he should do it or not, but, in the end, the promise of power was far too tempting and he gave in to it. The kid nodded, still with a quite surprised expression on his face. – Y-yeah! – he just said that and, with another chuckle, Natto pressed the button.

In the blink of an eye, the gravity increased ten times! And now the training was going to get rough…
