Chapter 1: Raditz

The fight had been going down hill from the start. Goku knew that at this rate, his brother would kill them both, and likely the rest of the planet if he didn't think of something. Then, like a ray of hope, he say a tuft of brown around his brothers waist.

'A TAIL! If he is anything like me, squeezing it will cripple him! Its our only chance.'

Feinting left as Piccolo darted in once more, he sped behind his evil sibling, and just as the latter was dodging another jab from his enemy turned ally, grabbed with all his might the furry appendage.

"Ah ha!" He yelled in triumph.

The battlefield took on an eerie silence at this, to any onlooker, odd action. Piccolo looked perplexed. What was this fool DOING?! Did he think this was a game?! Raditz though, wore a grimace, his face contorted. Slowly, at least to those present, he fell to his face, muffled sounds coming from the impacted ground.

"Quick Piccolo! Take him out while I hold him!"Goku screamed at the Demon.

Not one to waste an opportunity, Piccolo started charging his technique. Raditz continued to lay there, the only sign he was even with them his continuous twitching. The seconds felt like hours as they trickled away.

"Its ready Goku!" Yelled Piccolo. "Special Beam Ca-"

In a flash of crimson, an arm went shooting through Piccolo's chest. After a swift removal, the body of Piccolo fell to the ground.

"Wha-"

"Oh..." Raditz began, wiping a tear from his eye, "you should see your face! Its priceless! Hahaha! Grabbing my tail... that's a good one little brother! You HONESTLY thought that would work? Tell me, when did you first find out it was a weakness?"

Goku stared at him blankly. Terror was creeping through his every vein.

"Oh well. Needless to say, considering it is literally our only weakness, Sayian children were trained on our planet to resist its crippling aspects. I'm rather surprised you thought that would work, honestly."

He frowned, a look of concentration on his face as if he were considering something.

"Yes... let's face it, if THAT was your best plan, that blow to the head must have done more than remove your programming. I guess you'd be no real help to us after all. Farewell brother."

And with that, he grabbed his brother, who still had the look of a man lost at sea, and with one swift chop, broke his neck. Going swiftly to his pod, he remembered the child inside.

'Hopefully he turns out better...'

And with that, Gohan still knocked out under his arm, Raditz, in his ship, flew into the sky, never to be seen again.

A/N

I've always loves the HISHE series, and lets face it, in DBZ, there are a LOOOOOT of 'bad calls' by the heroes that are made to create drama, or REEEEAAALLY convenient aspects (good or bad) to villains added to make them more/less threatening.

I'm going to just do these as they come to me so don't expect any order to them.
