Early Life
Takumi (Takenoko or Bamboo Shoot) was born to a Saiyan named Cerely. Her family moved to Earth after the destruction of their second Home Planet, Yatera, by a group of renegade Saiyans. Cerely (Celery) was married to Orion (Onion) the leader of the Saiyans that lived on Yatera, when his planet was destroyed by the renegades he was killed along with it which left Cerely alone and pregnant with Takumi. She and a few Saiyans had escaped before the blast and so she found her way to Earth when her space ship found life on the Green planet. She landed in June of Age 922, and on June 5th her first and only child was born and she began to raise him on her own. Throughout the many years Cerely trained and when her son was only two she trained him as well, they lived in a small village outside of North City where she was a Merc for Hire. The Saiyan battle instincts were strong in Takumi, and he always loved to battle the human children, who picked on him because of his tail and boisturous attitude.

As Takumi grew older he settled down a bit, though his love of all things athletic did not. His mother by this point had retired and began to train with Takumi more often, but on his 17th birthday the young man left his village and began to travel the world and beyond in search of powerful enemies to fight.

Training and Meeting Frost
One day while visiting West City Takumi met a kid named Frost. At first the two decided to train against one another because of Frost's alter ego taking over, but when they soon ended up teaming up against Trogeveta, who was nearby and watching the whole time. The two put up a decent fight but were severely overpowered by Trogeveta to the point that Frost's ice clone was destroyed and Takumi had to go to the hospital. That was the first and so far, last encounter that Takumi has had with anyone who wasn't a normal human, and he promised himself to train harder and to become a Super Saiyan one day.
