Fatal Switch Chapter 1: Ginyu's Promotion I don't own DBZ/GT

Description: Ginyu is successful in securing Goku's body and Frieza's trust, but when he doesn't heed Goku's warning he may lose everything.

Goku sped through the green skies of Planet Namek. He was thankful he had made it here in the nick of time, other wise his son and best friend would have been toast. He'd dealt with Recoome, now he needed to track this 'Captain Ginyu' down if he wanted to get the dragonballs to safety. Goku turned a little, keeping Ginyu in range. There he was. Goku landed softly, but still drew Ginyu's attention. The purple alien turned, holding all seven dragonballs in his muscular arms. He checked Goku's power level with his scouter and smiled.

"This looks to be a challenge," Ginyu said cheerfully. He dropped the dragonballs and powered up.

"Please, just give me the dragonballs peacefully," Goku pleaded. "I'd rather not hurt you."

"You see though, I don't feel the same way," Ginyu replied," In fact, I want to hurt you a lot."

"Please, Ginyu!" Goku protested sternly.

"That's captain to you!" Ginyu than struck his famous pose. "Captain Ginyu!" Ginyu than disappeared. Goku followed suit. Both warriors fought fiercely at incredible speed.

Far off in space, King Kai followed the fight, though he could barely do so.

"What's going on, King Kai?" Piccolo asked when he saw the short blue alien sweating.

"It's amazing!" King Kai gawked. "Both are powerful, but Goku astounds me!"

Goku landed a punch to Ginyu's face and knocked him back to the ground. Ginyu tried catching his breath, while Goku stood unaffected.

"It's a hopeless fight for you Ginyu!" Goku stated. "Give up now, or be destroyed."

"You're so much stronger and faster than me," Ginyu laughed. "But I choose neither." Ginyu than thrust his right hand through his chest and ripped out one of his own organs.

"Your insane!" Goku said in disgust.

"Open wide!" Ginyu then fired a thin pink beam from his mouth, which drew out another from Goku's mouth. The beams combined and then vanished.

"Oh my!" King Kai exclaimed in shock. Piccolo and the other three Z fighters looked up at King Kai worriedly.

Goku opened his eyes and looked around for a while, trying to catch his bearings. As he started feeling a little better he turned his attention to a Saiyan in front of him.

"A Saiyan? Wait that's me!" Goku exclaimed. It wasn't just a Saiyan, but one with an evil smirk.

"This body is quite comfortable, and streaming off power," Ginyu said happily.

"How'd you-" Goku then fell backwards.

"Don't you remember? There's a hole in you!" Ginyu laughed out loud. "Hn?" Ginyu turned and saw two short individuals he'd met earlier. "Ah, yes, the pipsqueak and baldy."

"Father? There's something different about you," Gohan said curiously.

"Yeah," Krillin agreed," something's different about your ki signature?"

"Fools, I'm not 'Goku'," Ginyu said. "I'm Captain Ginyu!"

"But where's my dad?" Gohan whimpered. Ginyu raised his arm and pointed to the bleeding alien on the ground.

"Take a look," Ginyu said wickedly. Gohan flew to his father's side.

"Dad? Are you okay?"

"I-I'm not doing too well," Goku could barely breath now.

"Here's a senzu bean!" Gohan quickly shoved the small green bean into Goku's now purple mouth. Goku chewed softly.

"Why you!" Ginyu fired a large ki blast at Gohan.

"No way!" Goku slapped the blast into the air.

"You intend on fighting me?" Ginyu chuckled. "What's the point?"

"I'll stop you, even with out my body, because I'm still Goku!" Goku cupped his hands close together and began channeling his ki. "KA! ME! HA! ME!! HAAAA!!" Goku unleashed all his power into the blue beam. Goku stood in the same position, watching for any sign of Ginyu. The dust clouds rose and dissipated into the air.

"I'm sorry, but was that the best my body had?" Ginyu sneered as he stood, very much together. Only his clothes showed any true damage. Goku trembled before his old Saiyan body's power. "I'd say I made out like a bandit." Ginyu disappeared and reappeared to punt Goku into the air. Both Krillin and Gohan stood, their faces as white as sheets. Ginyu raised an open palm towards the two scared warriors and prepared to blast them into oblivion.

"Not so fast, Kakkarot!" Vegeta booted Ginyu in the back of the head. Ginyu rolled along until he shot back up onto his feet.

"Wait, Vegeta! That's not my dad!" Gohan warned.

"Than who-?" Vegeta started. "Oh, I get it." Vegeta turned towards Ginyu. "So which number is this one, Ginyu?"

"I forget exactly, but I'm pretty sure this is my sixth," Ginyu answered.

"A disgusting creature, you are," Vegeta said," always using the strength others earned. I hate Kakkarot, but he deserves that body more than you!"

"Finders keepers," Ginyu said, as he and Vegeta prepared for battle. Ginyu charged forward at full speed, but Vegeta stepped to the side and swung his heel into the back of Ginyu's shin. Ginyu stumbled, and Vegeta grabbed him by his hair and slammed him onto his back. The Saiyan Prince tried to stomp his foot on Ginyu, but sunk into the dirt when Ginyu disappeared. Ginyu kicked the side of Vegeta's buried leg, and almost snapped the bone in two.

"Owww!!" Vegeta cried in anguish. Then Ginyu kicked the back of Vegeta's head and drove his face into the small rocky area.

"Stop it!" Gohan let out an extraordinary roar. Gohan punched Ginyu into the air, appeared behind him, and smashed over the head, sending him through the alien terrain like a meteor. Gohan started unleashing all his ki into the crater. Gohan finally fazed out of his hyper mode and stared down at the destruction he caused. "Did I do it?" Gohan asked hopefully. He was answered by an angry Saiyan's frown and backhand to the face. Gohan fell to the ground, barely conscious.

"Stupid kid," Ginyu said angrily as he wiped his mouth. "If you were only older I might use your body instead." Ginyu then began charging an enormous amount of ki. Krillin stood trembling, while both Gohan and Vegeta lay face first in the dirt. Goku was nowhere to be seen. "Goodbye!" Ginyu launched a massive ki blast towards the weakened fighters. "Hahaha- huh!?" Ginyu said in surprise. Goku stood, knees locked, as he held the blast at bay. "How are you doing that? That body should be history by now!"

"Its not the body, but the spirit and heart!" Goku yelled. "I am a Saiyan! And I will not die with out a fight!"

"Than you will die like a Saiyan!" Ginyu expelled all his strength, consuming Goku in the energy. As Goku began to disintegrate he spoke a warning:

"You may think you're safe from Frieza, but you will suffer!"

"He won't kill me! I'm his greatest soldier!" Ginyu argued.

"Destroy Frieza while you have the chance! There are far worse things then death! Goodbye, Saiyan!"

"DIE!!" Ginyu let all his energy explode out in anger. Everything within fifty miles was decimated, none survived, save Ginyu and the dragonballs. Ginyu lowered to the ground and knelt. Frieza appeared behind him.

"Good work, Captain," Frieza said," or should I say, Admiral."

"Thank you Lord Frieza!"
