You. You. You are alive.
and sometimes the player believed the universe had spoken to it through the sunlight that came through the shuffling leaves of the summer trees
and sometimes the player believed the universe had spoken to it through the light that fell from the crisp night sky of winter, where a fleck of light in the corner of the player's eye might be a star a million times as massive as the sun, boiling its planets to plasma in order to be visible for a moment to the player, walking home at the far side of the universe, suddenly smelling food, almost at the familiar door, about to dream again
and sometimes the player believed the universe had spoken to it through the zeros and ones, through the electricity of the world, through the scrolling words on a screen at the end of a dream
and the universe said I love you
and the universe said you have played the game well
and the universe said everything you need is within you
and the universe said you are stronger than you know
and the universe said you are the daylight
and the universe said you are the night
and the universe said the darkness you fight is within you
and the universe said the light you seek is within you
and the universe said you are not alone
and the universe said you are not separate from every other thing
and the universe said you are the universe tasting itself, talking to itself, reading its own code
and the universe said I love you because you are love.
And the game was over and the player woke up from the dream. And the player began a new dream. And the player dreamed again, dreamed better. And the player was the universe. And the player was love.
You are the player.
Wake up.

Actually it says he's twelve by the first World Martial Arts Tournament he fights in. Which means he's about fifteen by the second [Weird, must've been bad translation. It happens (I'm still right because it was original Japanese >:3)]. Imagine him being older than me and half my height smh my head [You're still tiny]. That tiger skin though. Regardless, I still want them to be around Gohan's age, and you said he was... what, around seven by the Frieza arc? Or am I thinking of something else? If that's true, and they were about his age and introduced to him early on in the plot, that would make them small kids [Yeah, just about 7 if I remember correctly].
Small Giru Saiyan (she's a far bigger brat than she is tall) [Tell me about it. She's 3'2" with a 6" attitude]

Nitpicking your nitpicking :3
As I said, it's all in all better than I expected. But of course, nitpicking.
"Over the next decade or so, they lived in the massive jungle"
...You mean these are older kids? Wow, big lame [I don't know if the original Dragon Ball mentioned this in the English version, but the small Goku you know and love...is 14. Giru and BM Saiyans are ~13 years old at the time they found Gohan. I probably should specified it, but yeah]. Personally, I liked them being roughly around Gohan's age [Stupid brain forgtetting Gohan small dumb dumb dumb]. Of course his age would depend on the point in the story, but small Gohan hanging around small Bee Saiyan and small Giru Saiyan is actually pretty amusing. The advantage to them being older is that they could, and likely would, act like little kids still, which would also be funny. But that aside, small Saiyans for the win [among us].

Backstory stuff (about time):
(Originally, when I was thinking about the concepts, I was thinking of kind of, y'know, "taking inspiration" from Goku's backstory, which I then realized would be tough, but then...this idea came to mind)
Alrighty, so a long long time ago, when Frieza's forces were invading Planet Vegeta, two families realized they would not survive the onslaught. However, these families observed a lower-class saiyan family do the same for their son, so the two families figured that putting their children (one family had a son, the other had a daughter) in space pods and sending them into deep space would at least slightly improve their childrens' survival. Fearing that the children might die within the first few days of space travel, they put their children in space pods designed for years of space travel, acting as a sort of coma-inducing pod, so no resources would need to be used, and it would halt nearly all biological processes, essentially freezing the kids in time as they flew through the void. For years, the two kids would traverse the emptiness of space. but their pods would always remain relatively close to one another. And on one fateful, after years of travel, the pods entered the Earth's atmosphere and crash landed in a remote jungle. The first pod opened, revealing a young Saiyan boy, who would be known as BM, and in the other pod emerged a young Saiyan girl named Giru. Not knowing where they were, the spent the first few hours exploring their surroundings. Eventually, they found a massive tree from which they would find shelter in. Over the next few days, the duo became better friends, and their personalities began to show more, with Giru being a rather bratty girl, and BM being quite lazy. Over the next decade or so, they lived in the massive jungle, and that was their life. However, getting rather bored with their monotonous lifestyle, the Saiyan pair decided to travel beyond the massive jungle they called home, eventually stumbling upon a small town, where they spent their first day there digging inside dumpsters, confused as to why the residents were throwing away such great food, but the biggest surprise to them was the lifestyle of the townsfolk. Not only were they NOT wearing armor (courtesy of Saiyan heritage) but they all had a lack of tails, something that the pair had never seen before. Eventually, as the young Saiyans were chased out of the dumpsters they ravaged, they happened upon a young man named Gohan...and the rest is history
