Akira's POV
I was studying on my desk, going over my 4 the grade material. I was surprised to learn that the school system in the world is almost identical to my old one. Maybe it's the Japanese School system? well I'll never know. I felt my thoughts wander back to sabertooth incident.
Luckily my dad had a spare Senzu Bean he never used years ago at the 23 World Martial Arts Tournament, so theirs no scar. I look at my hat, which is actually a toboggan, with the 1 Star Ball sowed on the top.

FLASHBACK
I stare at the ball in Gohan's hand confused.
Gohan: "here Akira, I want you to have it."
I was confused. Why did he want to give me the ball? surely Dad can find a better use for it.
Me: "Gohan, why are you giving me the ball?".
He gains an embarrassed look, his cheeks turning red, and responds
Gohan: "Well you went out with me even though I know you didn't want to, and you saved me from that big cat, so I felt like I should give you something."
I feel my heart warm up, and smile at Gohan, taking the ball, while responding
Me: "thank you Gohan."

PRESENT
After that Mom made a orange toboggan out of it, just like Gohan's hat. I decide to stop studying as it's almost time to leave, when I hear mom shouting
Chi-Chi: "Gohan! Gohan!!"
I go to the window, and jump up to the ledge and grab. pulling myself up with a lot of effort due to my weak body, and look to see Mom outside, probably calling for Gohan. he as been gone a while.
I jump let go of the ledge and land on my feet, before running down stares. I pass a a few photos of me, Mom, Dad, and Gohan. I stop and look, smiling for a second, before running outside.
I run to the front door, stopping, and reach for the handle. I grasp it and open the door, mentally groaning for my short hight. I'm 4 and a half, and I'm only 3'2, a couple inches shorter than I should be. I run outside to see Dad talking to Mom, a huge tree log near his feet.
I vaguely remember in my old life watching the scene in which he punched the tree down, and run over the him.
Me: "Dad!".
both of them turn to me, stopping their talk, and I jump into Dad's arms. over time I have grown to embrace being a kid again, freely giving into my hidden childish side.
Goku: "Hey Akira, want to go look for your brother? We have to be at Master Roshi's soon."
yep, it's the day. I am afraid of what's to come, but know if I just stay out of things, I will be fine. I am worried about Gohan though. he will be all alone in the wild. The thought of that makes my stomach churn. over these years, Gohan and I have grown incredibly close, and the idea of what's going to happen to him makes me sick.
He was only 4 when he was thrown into the wild in the show! I suppress my fear, and nod enthusiastically
Goku: "Well, we better get going. NIMBUS!"
after a few seconds a yellow cloud appears Infront of us. dad jumps on, and we are off. I hear mom yelling about being home for dinner. I smile slightly, amazed at all the things you can see from this high up.
dad starts calling for Gohan, even leaving me on the Nimbus for a little bit. dad starts calling out for Gohan, when I hear Gohan's voice calling out. I look over the Nimbus, and my eyes widen as I see Gohan being pulled down a rapid river with only a wooden log.
Goku: "GOHAN!"
Dad flies down, surfing on the water, me getting some droplets in my face. dad reaches for Gohan, but I notice that Gohan his heading through small cave we won't be able to fit through.
Me: "Dad!"
Dad looks at me, I point ahead. He looks and sees the cave, and at the last second pulls up, and we fly over it the rock formation. we make it over, only to see a waterfall on the other side.
I fell myself panic, and dad yells out in worry
Goku: "Gohan!"
After a few second, I hear Gohan's voice, and Dad prepared to fly down, only to notice that Gohan's voice is coming from above. we fly up, only to see Gohan holding onto a tree branch randomly sticking out of cliff.
Gohan keeps crying, not noticing us, until he opens his eyes, and sees us.
Gohan: "Daddy, Akira!"
he jumps into Dad's arms, and Dad asks
Goku: "How did you get up here?"
I of course knew, but didn't say anything. I was glad Gohan was okay. I can't bank on canon always going the same, for all I know Gohan's powers wouldn't have activated their.
I hug Gohan, checking him over, only to find he is miraculously unharmed. Man, Gohan's tough. Dad and Gohan exchange a few sentences, and soon we are off. I take in all the amazing things from up hear.
The anime didn't even begin to grasp the beauty of this world. lush green forest, rocky mountain ranges, hey, theirs the ocean! we are soon surfing on the ocean, me taking in the smell along with admiring the beautiful crystal blue waves.
we ride for about an hour, until I see a small island in the distance. Goku picks both of us up in his arms, and when we reach the island, jumps of Nimbus, landing with us in his arms.
I take in the sight of KameHouse. It looks exactly like it does in the anime, only real. I feel my inner fan girl come out, my excitement grows. I have long since excepted that I will be a girl this life. I still find it weird, since I lived 18 years as a boy, but I have accepted the truth of the matter.
Goku: "Hey guys! You in their!?"
I smile dad's excitement, before frowning, my worry coming back, thinking about what's coming. I hope everything turns out okay.
