Hi. Here's the newly revised chapter eight of the Amnesia Saga. Thanks to my betareader, Natz for helping me.

Many thanks to the others who have offered their help.

The Amnesia Saga
Part Eight
By Maria Cline

They were warriors bonded by experience and maybe even blood. Tomata and Goku fought over the ground with blurred fists. They knew each other very well from the battles they fought together and all the times they trained together. Tomata fell to the ground, panting heavily. Goku followed her and landed.
"You're getting better, Tomata." Goku complimented.

"But, not good enough." Tomata said, "I... want to beat Vegita. I don't want to just outlast him; I need to show him how powerful I am. My honor is at stake."

"You're working very hard at being stronger." Goku insisted, "And I bet that you will beat Vegita."

"How?" Tomata asked, "Vegita's so strong. I have to be a Super Saiyan to have a chance."

"You will." Goku replied, "I have faith in your power. Why don't we stop here for today? We made a lot of progress."

"Okay." Tomata nodded as she sat on the ground and leaned backwards to rest on her hands. She was getting tired from the training and even Saiyans have limits. "Say Orang... I mean Goku, how do you feel about Bluberri... I mean Bulma, possibly being pregnant?"

"I don't know." Goku said as he sat next to her. "I mean, I love her, Tomata, I love her so much. But, I have two other sons with another woman that I don't truly know. And then there's her son and Vegita, whose Bulma's mate and the prince of all Saiyans."

"I wish I had known about Bluberri being Vegita's mate at the time. I wouldn't have tried so hard to put you two together." Tomata confessed, "I'm sorry." Ever since she found out that Orang and Bluberri were committed to different people, she couldn't help but feel guilty for what happened. She had honestly thought that Orang was evil before he lost his memory and that he didn't have a mate. How was she supposed to know that Orang was really a nice man who had a family?

"Don't feel bad about it." Goku insisted, "You had no idea. None of us knew until it's too late. Besides, maybe Bulma isn't pregnant." He was nervous about the entire thing himself. It was complicated enough with him being married to another woman but if he was now a father of a baby with Bluberri that would be too much.

"I wish that was true."

*****

Bulma stared at the pregnancy test. She was too nervous to get tested by a real doctor so she decided to take a home pregnancy test. The test had not taken yet because Bulma was getting too anxious. What if she is pregnant? How could she live with her newly found family if she was?

"Why don't you just take it?" Gohan asked as he appeared next to her.

Bulma jumped turned to him. "Gohan?!" She screamed as she looked at him. Gohan's eyes were bloodshot and his face was pale. "Are you okay?"

"Fine for a man who founded out that one of his own friends could be pregnant with his father's child." Gohan muttered as he sat down. "I can't believe that you and he..."

"Gohan... I'm sorry." Bulma apologized as she sat next to him. She looked down at her hands with the pregnancy test lying there. "You must understand that we had no idea that we had children at the time. I swear, if we knew that there was some chance that we had children, we would never... ever take a chance. How did you know?"

"I just know." Gohan said as tears came down his cheeks. "I went over to the lab to check on the progress of the machines when I overheard the conversation. My ears may not be as sharp as Piccolo's but they are sharp."

"Does anyone else know?"

"No. I had to find out for sure." Gohan answered coldly, "I didn't want my mom to find out accidentally and break down. She has been under a lot of pressure lately. I love her too much to have her know until it's certain."

Bulma sighed as she looked at the young man. Gohan and Goten looked so much like her Goku. They all had the same wide eyes and goofy grin that seem to pass through the generations. Tomata told her about how saiyan sons easily inherited their featurs from their fathers. "I know. Gohan, I swear, I had no idea that Orang, Goku, had a child."

"I know. Amnesia." Gohan said as he gestured to the test. "You have to take it. We all must know for sure if it's true or not."

Bulma clutched the test in her hands. "Looks like it's now or never." She muttered as she went into the bathroom.

*****

Weeks passed as the two warriors fought on. Tomata's body shook with rage as she glared at her sparring partner. "Get mad!" Goku urged on, "Think about what the other Saiyans did to you and your family! Think about the Tormans! Focus the rage and anger into your power!"

Tomata went to her knees as she looked up. Images of death and destruction poured through her mind. "I..." An image of Vegita came to her, taunting her and her ideas. Power slowly began to rush through her body. "want..." She can see the Tormans clawing through her fellow warriors and eating them. The air around her swirl. Clouds filled with bright red lightning circled around her and her fellow fighter. Goku look on in shock as Tomata's hair flashed between red and black, her pupils flickered to a blank state to a pair of gold ones. "REVENGE!!!" She screamed as her hair went straight up and turned to a very bright red. Her eyes transformed into a pair of gold orbs that resembled a pair of suns. Goku held up his hands as Tomata lashed out a massive Ki wave. The wave shoved out the ground making a large hole around her. Goku let down his hands to see Tomata still standing there powering up. Slowly, he came forward baffled about the transformation.

He knew that normal Super Saiyans had gold hair and green eyes, not red hair and gold eyes. Tomata stood there for a tense second before collapsing on the ground. Her hair reverted back to its normal black color. The sky cleared and turned back to white. Tomata weakly opened her now normal black eyes and asked, "Did... did I do it?" Her body was pouring out sweat and was almost drained.

Goku smiled as he tenderly picked up his friend and held her in his arms. "I don't know. Your hair went red and your eyes were gold for a second. Then, you collapsed and you went back to normal."

"Red hair and gold eyes? How?" She muttered weakly as she lost consciousness but happy.

Goku smiled as he flew up with the exhausted warrior in his arms. He knew that Tomata had crossed some threshold of her power. At this time, he had no idea what it was. It could be a female Super Saiyan form or an entirely different power up. But for now, Tomata was exhausted and needed a very well deserved sleep.

Goku landed at the building and went to the beds. Gently, he laid the woman on the mattress. Tomata turned over as she smiled slightly. "You did great." Goku complimented as he pulled the covers over her body. After watching her for a few moments he decided to go eat and left her alone. Unknown to all, Tomata turned to her side and grimaced. A faint but distinct ripping sound came and the Saiyan sighed as she slept on.

*****

Gohan waited anxiously as he fingered a stress ball in his hand. He wanted Bulma not to be pregnant with his father's child. How would his father react? Would he still want to regain his memories? And what about Goten and Trunks? There's no way to figure out how they would react. Trunks loved Bulma very much, especially since Bulma raised him most of his life. Goten had barely gotten a chance to know his father before that long painful six-month separation. Whilst Goten and Goku bonded almost instantly, it was still hard to predict what their reactions would be.

The two most obvious people that would definitely hate Bulma being pregnant with Goku's baby are Chi Chi and Vegita. Chi Chi loves Goku and Vegita loves Bulma. It was hard for either of them to accept Goku and Bulma having some relationship. But, it was understandable. Goku and Bulma didn't remember who they were and so they became close, very close.

"What's on our mind?" Piccolo asked as he came up. "Did you know?" Gohan asked as he destroyed the stress ball in his hand with a simple blast.

"About Bulma possibly being pregnant, yeah." Piccolo sat down next to the boy who had changed him the demon king and crossed his legs in his usual meditating position. "I didn't want anyone else to know until it was a fact. I'm sorry."

Gohan sighed loudly as he gazed up. "This thing had been a nightmare. Destroying the Termons was easy but the rest of this is hard. So hard. Damn it!" Gohan slammed his fist through a wall and he gulped. "Oops." He said sheepishly as he took out his fist in an embarrassed manner. It was times like these that he didn't like being one of the strongest men in the world. While it's handy for handling monsters and threats to the world, taking out your frustrations on furniture is something that he couldn't do.

Piccolo grunted in amusement as he shook his head. "You still have that uncontrollable anger." He muttered, "But, this entire ordeal is also hard on Bulma and Goku as well. They didn't know their lives before we told them. Besides, it could've been worst."

"How?"

"They could've been our enemies. There are a lot of races out there that are not as nice as the Fruans." Piccolo answered.

Gohan nodded as he remembered his space travels as a five-year-old boy. They were good and bad times. He had never met so many types of aliens in a period of two months in his life. "Right."

Bulma came out of the bathroom as pale as a sheet. "Bulma?" Gohan asked as he got up.

"I don't know." Bulma answered, "Both tests contradict."

Gohan and Piccolo fell over. "Huh?" They asked.

"Well... I don't know if I trust those home tests. Especially one that was named 'Krusty's Home Pregnancy Test'. So, I bought two. One said that I'm pregnant and the other said I'm not." Bulma explained as she held up two different tests with two different results.

"Great. Just great." Gohan said as he looked at the tests. "Well, when possibly pregnant, one is supposed to get a doctor's opinion."

"A doctor. Okay, what about my father." Bulma asked as her hands shook. She still couldn't believe that she may or may not have a baby. The two pregnancy tests contradict each other so it still means that she still doesn't know.

"No. He's not a baby doctor." Gohan answered, "We'll just have to find a human doctor. I think there's that doctor that took care of Mom when she had Goten and I."

"I don't trust doctors." Piccolo replied, "Let me. Hold still." Piccolo reached out for Bulma's stomach. Bulma stepped back hesitantly. Piccolo sighed as he glared up at her. "Relax, Kami has done this before."

"Are you sure?" Bulma asked as the alien's big green hands touched her stomach.

"Trust him, Bulma." Gohan advised.

Bulma closed her eyes as the hands felt warmer. Her stomach tingled lightly and the Namekian gasped. He let go and stepped back.

Gohan looked at his mentor's look of confusion. He had never saw Piccolo so surprised in his life.
"Piccolo?" Gohan asked.

Piccolo let out a solem sigh. He looked at Bulma disapointed. "She's pregnant." He said simply.

Gohan and Bulma reacted like any other person in those circumstances. A sucession of thuds were heard as Gohan and Bulma fainted.

"Perfect." Piccolo muttered as he went up and picked up the unconscious Bulma. "Humans."

"Excuse me?"

Piccolo turned around and saw a familiar figure standing there with a tray of tea in her hand. "Oh no. Not her."

*****

The sun rose as Tomata sat up in her bed. Goku came in the room with a huge bowl of rice in his hands. "Glad you finally woke up." Goku said cheerfully as he handed the woman the bowl. "I made some breakfast."

Tomata accepted the bowl and wolf down the food gratefully. She swallowed and said, "Thanks. Have I been asleep for that long?"

"You bet. Did you remember what happened?"

Tomata shook her head. "Not really. I remembered being mad and trying to go Super Saiyan. I thought about all the things would enraged me; the Tormans... Vegita... and even me not being able to go Super Saiyan. Then, a great feeling of power overwhelmed me and then exhaustion. What happened?"

Goku grinned and put up a 'V' sign. "You crossed a major boundary. You went Super Saiyan!"

Tomata beamed. After all this time, after so many battles, she finally achieved every Saiyan's dream. She went Super Saiyan. "I did? Really?!" Tomata flung off the covers and hopped out of bed. Right after she landed on her feet, she toppled backwards and fell on the bed. "Huh?"

"Tomata? You okay?" Goku asked as he pulled her back up.

Tomata, still holding on to Goku's hands, looked behind her to see a long furry tail waving around like a banner. "Oh, that's my tail. It must've-" She did a double take and fell over. "Tail?! I REGREW MY TAIL?!" She screamed as she pawed at the appendage in her strong hands and felt it to make sure it's real. "Oh..."

Goku's eyes budged as he pulled her up again and seated her on the bed. "A... a tail?!" He screamed as he reached up and lightly squeezed the tail.

"Ah! Not so hard!" Tomata argued as she grabbed Goku's hand.

Goku smiled sheepishly as he quickly released his grip. "Sorry. I forgot about what you said about tails."

Tomata sighed in relief as she rubbed her tail. "That's okay." The Saiyan gazed at her tail again. It was just as she remembered it from so long ago. It had the same shade of brown it had before. She focused and it curled around her hand like before. "My tail. But how?"

Goku frowned as he thought. "Well, maybe when a female Saiyan goes Super Saiyan, she regains her tail. You didn't go Super Saiyan like me or the others did." He observed as he transformed into his Super Saiyan form. "You were different. You had red hair and gold eyes."

"Red hair and gold eyes?" Tomata repeated. "But... I thought Super Saiyans have gold hair and green eyes and they don't sprout tails." **And tails don't usually sprout back after getting pulled out. Cut off sure, but not pulled.** Tomata thought as she stood up wobbly. Her tail became still as Tomata regained her balance. "I gotta get used to having the tail again."

Goku smiled at his friend. Tomata regaining her tail must be some sign. "This is great! Say! In that fight with Vegita, you can change into that giant ape while a Super Saiyan!"

"No!" Tomata snapped as Goku jumped. "The Oozaru transformation is a very... _very_ powerful transformation. Transformed, the Saiyan would succumb to their most primal instincts. If a Saiyan transforms and he or she is untrained, he or she would go bezerk! Saiyans are often trained to control themselves to handle the transformation since they were children so they wouldn't destroy themselves or their parents. I haven't been trained in a long time and I haven't transformed either. If I change while a Super Saiyan, I could destroy the entire planet in a mere blow."

Goku gulped as he thought of a giant red monster running amok across the blue sphere known as Earth. "Oh man. If you do that while fighting Vegita, then the entire planet will be destroyed."

"I know. Besides, there's no moon here and I can't perform the Bruta Ball attack."

Goku nodded at the logic. "That's true too. Wanna practice going Super Saiyan?"

"Yes." Tomata walked around in a circle slightly unsteady on her feet. "I have to adjust to this tail too."

*****

Back in the outside world, Yamcha sighed as he sat on a chair on Master Roshi's island. The sun was setting over the vast sea, making the sky slightly red. There was an old saying among sailors. Red sky means warning or something like that. He couldn't help but think about Tomata. While for him only a few hours passed but in the Spirit Room, months passed for Tomata and Goku.

"Hey, Yamcha, you okay?" Krillian asked as he sat next to his fellow warrior. "You seem kinda distant."

"Just thinking." Yamcha replied as he smiled.

"It's Tomata, isn't it?" Puar inquired as he hovered next to his best friend.

Yamcha blushed brightly as he nodded. "Yeah. It's her."

Krillian grinned as he elbowed him. "Oh... _her_. Man, Saiyans sure can attract Humans."

"It's not like that." Yamcha argued as his face turned even more red. "It's... well... it's... just that I'm worried about her. Vegita is one powerful guy and he wouldn't want to lose to Tomata. He'll kill her."

"Honestly, Yamcha, you must have more faith in her." Eighteen said as she carried Marron with her. "Tomata is a very strong woman and she's a Saiyan. That must account for something."

Yamcha looked at the android and nodded once. "I just don't want her to die." He died twice in his life, and it wasn't the most pleasant thing he had experienced. While they could revive her with the Dragon Balls, it didn't seem right to have her die anyway.

"She won't." Krillian advised, "Vegita changed somehow from since the first time we met him. Trunks and Bulma changed him for the better."

"Bulma doesn't remember Vegita and is head over heels over Goku. That might make him very mad." Yamcha reminded.

"Oh." Krillian sweat dropped. "Well, still, we have to believe that Tomata won't die. She's tough."

"I know." Yamcha said as he thought of the months he spent with her in the Spirit Room of Space and Time. Tomata picked up his moves fast and had been through a great deal. "It's just... well... what will she do after the fight? Where will she go? I know that she's planning to learn more about Earth and the Humans but what else she can do?"

"Who knows?" Krillian replied.

Master Roshi came up to the group. "I couldn't help overhear your conversation. I know what Tomata can do." He put his hands behind his back in a sage like way.

"What can she do, Master Roshi?" Krillian asked.

The martial arts master nodded once and rocked back and forth. "Tomata is a Saiyan warrior or at least in blood." Roshi explained, "So, she would know nothing but fighting. Correct?"

The group, even Marron, nodded.

"Well..." Roshi said as he glanced at them behind his sunglasses, "she would also have a great deal of stamina and coordination. The best way she could contribute to society is..." He took out a videotape and exclaimed, "HER OWN MARTIAL ARTS WORKOUT TAPES!!!"

Everyone fell over at the response. "You gotta be kidding! Tomata? An aerobics instructor?" Yamcha asked.

"Can you just picture it?" Master Roshi asked as images of Tomata appeared in his mind. She was dressed in a tight bright outfit as she did some humanly slow kicks. "One-two, one-two..." The old man lost his sagely appearance and began repeating, "one-two, one-two. Yeah, Tomata, keep on kicking!"

The group, used to Master Roshi's attitude, just rolled their eyes.

*****

Bulma sighed as she sipped some tea her mother made. Mrs. Briefs accidentally founded out about pregnancy and reacted like she would normally do. "Oh Bulma! I'm so happy you are going to have another baby! That means that Trunks will be an older brother! Oh! I love being a grandmother! I have to get out the old baby stuff and the baby will have a ball!" Mrs. Briefs gushed as she poured tea for herself.

Piccolo's eye twitched at the woman's high pitch voice. There was something about Mrs. Briefs that annoyed him to death. "Mrs. Briefs... can you please shut up?!"

Mrs. Briefs stopped pouring her tea and looked at the green man. "Huh?"

"Mom, I don't want anyone else to find out until I tell them myself." Bulma explained, "This is complicated."

"I guess that's right." Mrs. Briefs laughed, "That is Goku's right?"

"Yes, and I need to wait till I can tell him before I can tell anyone else." Bulma explained softly.

"And it will be a very good idea if Vegita or anyone else don't know yet." Gohan added as images of a super angry Vegita ran through his mind. It was a simple equation. Vegita + Chi Chi + Goku and Bulma's baby = end of world. "Say, where's Vegita?"

"He's training in the gravity room as usual." Mrs. Briefs replied, "He's been in there all day getting strong for his little fight with that Bulma and Goku's friend."

"Good. Then, he didn't hear this conversation. I know that he changed but he still has an uncontrollable temper." Piccolo muttered worriedly

*****

*achoo!* Vegita sneezed as he did his one-finger pushups in 600 x normal gravity. "This is insane." Vegita grumbled. All day long, he had been letting out his anger and frustration in pure exercise. He trained, eat, drink, and used the bathroom. He had every right to be mad. In the past week, they had founded his mate after six months only to find her with no memory of him and head over heels over Kakarot, his archrival and sometimes friend. Then, he founded the Exiled Saiyan that had been presumed dead for so long and discovered that had cemented the Exiled's family's fate was correct. The theory that had the Saiyans in reality descended from the Humans, hence making the two related like cousins.

There was only one good thing about this fiasco. He was going to beat up Exile for an entire hour. That is why he was training. He knew that Tomata had access to the Spirit Room of Space and Time and that she had years of training with different people. He had lost track of Kakarot's Ki and had surmised that he was in the Room of Spirit and Time with the woman. He knew that the woman couldn't go Super Saiyan. After all, she was a woman and was not even a true saiyan. He remembered how it was only when Goku finally accepted his Saiyan heritage that he went Super Saiyan. The woman was not a Saiyan by legal rights.

He smirked to himself as he rose the gravity up another 50. "At least, it will be a good fight."

*****

Weeks had passed in the room and Tomata did flips all over the place. She had finally managed to not only get used to the tail but learned how to use it to her advantage. "This is great!" Tomata exclaimed as she landed on her feet. "This tail is helping me get stronger."

Goku approached her smiling at Tomata's exclamation. She had been able to handle the Super Saiyan form and master it in such a small amount of time. He loved how she had grown much stronger in the time that passed. Over the months and technically years they spent together, Tomata had grown much stronger and seemed more content. "That's cool. But, we both did well without our tails."

"True. But, you lost your tail by your own will. Gohan and the others never really cared about their tails. Vegita... from what I heard lost his in battle. I lost mine as punishment for a crime that was never truly committed." Tomata wrapped her tail around her waist like a belt. "It's like a sign. I have finally regained what was stripped of me. Saiyans don't usually like losing their tails. I have to use this gift to the best of my ability. It helps me gain better balance and focus and I think it even makes me stronger physically."

"Do you want to go back to the outside world now? I bet that you want to see the others again." Goku said as he smiled at her.

"Yes. I think it's time. Besides, Bulma might have take that pregnancy test by now. Nervous?"

"Nope." Goku lied as his fingers twitched. He was a wreck. The only thing that had kept his mind off of the possiblity of him being a father to a new baby was preparing Tomata for the battle.

*****

Gohan was eating a small snack. He had lost most of his appetite from the surprising news. He was only eating his fifth apple when he and Piccolo looked up. "Tomata and Dad are out." Gohan observed.

"We better go to the Lookout fast." Piccolo said as he picked up Bulma. "Ready?"

"Let's go." Bulma replied as they left the place.

Dr. Briefs and Trunks came in and the scientist asked his wife, "Have you seen Bulma here?"

"She just left with Gohan and Piccolo to the Lookout." Mrs. Briefs replied as she giggled. "Oh! Bulma has some exciting news! But, I have to keep it a secret until she tells everyone! I have to go and find the old baby stuff! Bye!" With that, Mrs. Briefs left the two confused.

"I wonder what kind of news Bulma has?" Dr. Briefs pondered as he petted his cat on his shoulder.

"I hope it's good."

Trunks gulped as he thought of the news. He knew that his grandfather will be able to restore his mother's memory but now he wasn't sure. "Grandpa, can I go to Goten's?"

"Of course, Trunks." Dr. Briefs replied, "I'll go ahead and work on the machine."

"Thanks!" Trunks grinned as he flew off.

*****

Goten sighed as he looked out the window. Things had been somewhat boring ever since their day at the beach with his father. Chi Chi had been cleaning up as usual. Gohan had vanished and now he's alone.

"I wish Trunks was here right now." Goten sighed as he leaned on his hands.

As if someone was listening, Trunks landed in front of the window. "Hey, Goten!" Trunks tapped on the window.

"Trunks!" Goten exclaimed as he opened the window and climbed through. "What are you doing here?"

"I was getting bored." Trunks answered, "What about you?"

"Me too." Goten replied, "Things have been getting weird. I wish we can do something."

"Well, the old fashioned hit on the head trick didn't work." Trunks commented as he frowned, "I can't think of anything else to do."

"Well... your grandpa will cure Bulma and Daddy and get everything back to normal!" Goten exclaimed happily. He wanted everything to be back to normal. He wanted his father back to the way he was before this mess happened. He didn't want Bulma to be with his father, only his mother.

"Maybe." Trunks muttered. Suddenly, the two looked up as a pair of powers appeared. "That's Goku and Tomata!"

"Let's go."
