A/N: This story takes place in an alternate universe in which Videl and Gohan never became more than friends, not that I don't like her. I was inspired to write this after seeing some fan art online, and wondered "what if". I've changed up the timeline a bit to make it more interesting, in this universe Cooler isn't yet dead and Buu has just been defeated! Also, I don't own the art at the top, I haven't been able to find out who created it though, but credit goes to them! I hope you enjoy the read!
oOo
Daikon dashed through the corridor as fast as his feet would carry him, the delicate item he carried held firmly to his chest. Dim blue lights flashed across him as he made his way down the seldom used, and otherwise dark section of the ship, the laughter of his former comrades echoing through the halls and reaching his ears. Saiyans didn't feel fear often, but this instance was an exception, he did not fear for himself, even though he knew Lord Cooler's henchmen together could overpower him, but for the small, fragile bundle he held with one arm.
"Kyuuri" he breathed, his chest heaving.
His daughter was only seven, far too young to be under Cooler's harsh employment, he and his mate made sure she knew what it meant to be a Saiyan...before this all...before they tried to rebel...an act that got Daikon's mate killed and landed him in his current situation. It had to be done though, their daughter would be taken from them, brutalized and turned into a killer if he didn't.
He looked down at her sleeping form, he was forced to knock her unconscious with a weak, nearly harmless bolt of energy so she wouldn't try to fight him as he carried her off, away from the grasp of his oppressor.
"Father...?" she said softly as she awoke, her form slowly coming to life in his arms.
"Damn." he thought, trying to give his daughter the most confident smile he could.
Daikon kept running, he refused to take flight, he'd need his energy...for later...for Kyuuri.
"What's happening? Why is there laughing?" she asked, looking up at her father as he ran.
Daikon winced, Salza and company were getting closer, it disgusted him how much joy they took from this.
"It's going to be fine, it's all going to be fine." he said, trying to reassure his daughter as well as himself.
Daikon rounded a corner, finally finding himself in the Attack Ball launch bay.
"Daddy...what's happening?" Kyuuri asked again, tears caused by fright forming in her eyes.
Daikon made his way to the nearest terminal, punching in coordinates for a far away world, one he knew that was peaceful...a world he and his mate had purposefully spared to escape to with their daughter...if only their plan had worked.
A loud hissing filled the air as the Attack Ball's door opened, a small cloud of steam escaping before dispersing into the air.
Daikon gently set his daughter in the seat of the Attack Ball looking her straight in the eyes. "Whatever happens, don't try to get out of this pod, just keep on going and don't look back...I love you, Kyuuri." the Saiyan man said as he closed the door to the crash pod that now contained his daughter, struggling to stay calm as she began to cry. "I'm so sorry...but you'll be safe this way." he said through gritted teeth.
"Funny, I heard that you Saiyans barely cared for your children, might it be misinformation...or could your sadness simply be due to the fact that so few of you are left?" Salza said as he slowly strode into the room, a taunting smile on his face as Dore and Neiz joined him.
"Look Salza, he's shaking." Dore said, his booming laugh echoing throughout the room.
Daikon turned quickly reaching for the terminal to launch his daughter's pod.
"I don't think so!" Neiz yelled as he materialized behind Daikon, grabbing the Saiyan by the wrist.
"Go to hell!" Daikon roared, delivering a strong punch to Neiz' stomach, sending the alien flying into the nearest wall. The Saiyan man turned back to the terminal, punching the last command, confirming the launch sequence.
Salza, a recently recovered Neiz, and Dore all stared agape as Kyuuri's vessel shot out of it's bay, making it's way away from the ship at an incalculable speed.
Fear took over the faces of Salza, Dore, and Neiz as they watched.
"Lord Cooler isn't going to be happy." Dore growled through gritted teeth.
"You should've known your place and not attempted this, monkey!" Neiz roared.
"Let's show him his place!" Salza said, flying straight at Daikon.
The Saiyan man faded to the side, avoiding a punch from the Salza, he quickly tossed a ball of energy at the blue skinned alien, hitting him point blank in the chest and knocking him back. Suddenly Daikon was struck from behind, Dore's elbow smashing into the back of his head. As Dore and Neiz readied ki blasts, Daikon recovered and leapt into the air, delivering a kick to Niez's head before lunging fists first into Dore, taking the green-skinned being to the ground. The Saiyan man jumped back, Salza's fist instantly striking him across the face.
"Lord Cooler's going to make us pay for failing, so we're going to make you pay for making us fail!" Salza roared, beginning a lightning fast attack on Daikon, striking him twice in the ribs and once in the thigh before the Saiyan raised a knee, intercepting Salza's next kick. The blue-skinned alien flinched as his foot made contact with his opponent's knee, Daikon taking the opportunity to land a blow in his former teammate's stomach.
Daikon straightened up, gritting his teeth as Salza recovered in front of him, joining Dore and Neiz, the three of them extending their right hands, orbs of ki roaring into life around them. "Damn." he thought, readying himself to be struck by the three blasts.
"Stop." a calm voice called.
Salza, Dore and Neiz extinguished their ki blasts, falling to one knee as fast as they could."
Daikon tensed, he thought he might actually be able to do it; overcome Salza, Dore, and Neiz...but this...there was no way.
Cooler strode into the launching bay, his footfalls soft and light, his tail swishing against the ground underneath him. Although he was quiet and calm, he was threatening nonetheless.
"Daikon, what's the meaning of this?" Cooler asked.
"You..you killed my mate! I won't let you take my daughter! We Saiyans are no longer slaves to you!" he roared, shooting forward. The Saiyan man readied a ki blast in his palm and as soon as he was in range, smashed his fist into Cooler's face, following this by releasing the bolt of energy, smirking as it struck Cooler straight in the chest, the resulting explosion rocking the ship and filling the room with smoke. Daikon's smile faded as he heard it...soft at first...but soon it was loud...maniacal.
"What an unimpressive display." Cooler laughed, telekinetically dispersing the smoke cloud.
"But...but how?!" Daikon stammered. He didn't expect Cooler to be killed, but he couldn't help but be stunned, his opponent hadn't even attempted to guard himself against the blast, taking it head on, and somehow emerged unscathed.
"Is there anything else you'd like to attempt?" Cooler asked with a smile.
Daikon shot forward, phasing out from in front of his opponent, and materializing directly behind him, delivering a kick to the side of his head with all the force he had. The Saiyan man leapt back, gritting his teeth as Cooler stood still, completely unharmed.
"How underwhelming." Cooler said as he turned to face Daikon. "I didn't expect a challenge, but I did expect more than this! Oh well, time to take out the trash!" he exclaimed. As he lifted his hand upwards, wind began sweeping through the room, red bolts of electricity crackling as the a crimson vortex took shape, quickly stabilizing into a massive red ball of energy.
"But, but, my lord! That will destroy the entire ship!" Salza exclaimed, looking on in horror at the Death Ball his master had created.
"True." Cooler said with a smirk. The Death Ball shrank down in his hand, eventually fading to the size of a marble, Cooler holding it on the edge of his index finger.
Daikon charged a blue ki blast between his hands, electricity shooting up his arms and over his shoulders, he wouldn't go down without a fight. "Die!" he shouted, releasing the sum of his remaining power at his former commander.
A smirk grew on Cooler's face as he watched the incoming blast. "Not likely." he replied as he released the miniature Death Ball.
Daikon's blast met Cooler's, the small red energy ball tearing through Daikon's blue sphere with ease. "Kyuuri..." he thought, gasping as the Death Ball entered his body. The Saiyan man looked down as glowing red tears began to appear through his skin, he closed his eyes as he suddenly felt a great warmth consume him, his body torn apart in a bright red flash.
oOo
Far away
Kyuuri's tears had ended not too long ago, she didn't understand, why had her father sent her away? Why did Salza, Dore, and Neiz attack him?
She shifted onto her side in the Attack Ball's uncomfortable chair, closing her eyes after watching the countless stars go by, the starlight coming through the window of her vessel being her only companion.
Earth-Present Day
"Bulma!" Gohan shouted as he entered the grounds of Capsule Corp.
"Gohan!" Bulma responded, running over to the young half Saiyan.
"How have you been?" Gohan asked with a smile. It hadn't been long since Majin Buu's defeat and the subsequent resurrection of all those killed by him through use of the dragonballs, making it all the more strange that right there, sitting at a table at Bulma's party was the overweight childlike incarnation of Majin Buu himself, everyone around him acting as if his presence was normal.
"Oh, you know, just dealing with "Mr. Happy" over there." Bulma said, indicating Vegeta, who was standing alone off to the side.
"Jeez, what's got him in a twist?" Gohan asked, genuinely concerned.
"Eh, something to do with Goku defeating Buu and not him, you know how it is." Bulma said with a laugh.
"Bulma!" Chi-Chi called, running passed her son and embracing her friend. Goten entering behind her.
As the two women began to catch up, Gohan walked away, the past few months hadn't been easy on him, He had begun to worry constantly, having something to do with the danger that seemed to be attracted to Saiyans and half Saiyans alike. Gohan found himself roused from his moping by a loud proclamation by "The World's Strongest Man" from a table to his left, he had met his daughter a couple times, as they were in the same class at school, and even though they weren't too close, it didn't stop Mr. Satan from being an ever-present and slightly unwanted part of his life.
"You'd think the guy defeated Majin Buu himself, with the way he brags." Krillin said as he approached the young half Saiyan.
Gohan gave a short laugh before turning to his shorter friend. "Well, he did help my dad." he replied.
"True enough, that is why Bulma invited him, right?" Krillin asked, looking slightly puzzled.
"Probably." Gohan answered with another laugh while the two took seat, greeting Tien, Chiaotzu, and Yamcha as they sat down.
The five had only just begun talking when a resounding boom was heard from the city, smoke rising.
"What's going on?" Chi-Chi asked.
"I'm gonna go check it out." Gohan said.
"Wait for me!" Goten yelled, flying up to his brother.
"Wait here, it could be dangerous!" Gohan said, looking down at his younger brother.
"But-!" Goten began to argue.
"Goten!" Chi-Chi called, the young boy landing and looking slightly dejected.
"We'll get some senzu beans." Tien said, taking off with Krillin, Yamcha, and Chioatzu, Gohan nodding in agreement as he flew off.
oOo
A shrill beeping noise penetrated the air in the Attack Ball as it entered the atmosphere, beginning to shake as it bridged the distance between itself and the Earth below.
Kyuuri braced herself as the countdown began...3...2...1...
The Pod landed with a violent tremor, it's impact alone wiping out a city block. The Saiyan Girl inside peered out the window and adjusted her scouter, shocked to find how similar to herself the people on this planet look, it was a refreshing sight to behold after living on the last planet she had called home. Kyuuri lowered the door, stepping out into the crater caused by her landing.
"It's a girl."
"Is she human?"
"Where did she come from?"
"Silence." she said, levitating herself onto the street, all those in front of her being shocked into shutting their mouths.
The Saiyan girl scanned the crowd, her scouter failing to register a power level above six.
She turned back to the center of the crowd, a smirk spreading across her lips.
"I am your Queen, having any objections would be unwise...unless you wish to be destroyed." she said, placing a hand on her hip. Sirens in the distance caught her attention as she turned away from the sizable crowd.
"What makes you think you can tell us what to do?" A man yelled as he stepped forward.
Kyuuri simply smiled, raising an arm as the Police rounded the corner, stopping their cars a short distance away.
"Get on your knees, hands above your head!" an officer yelled as they got out of their cars, guns drawn.
"Hm, well this is anything but a warm welcome, I guess I'll have to show you some respect!" she yelled, pointing her index finger and swiping her arm through the air, a ki wave easily blowing away the police cars and tossing the officers away. The Saiyan girl smiled as she heard screams and gasps of terror behind her, this planet was going to be an easy conquest.
"Well, you've made quite the first impression." a gruff voice said.
"What?" Kyuuri said, turning to find a green skinned man with two antennae and pointy ears looking at her. "You obviously aren't from this world...so what are you doing here?" she asked with a smirk.
"I'd ask you the same, but since you're wearing armor that's standard issue among Frieza's soldiers, I'd say I have my answer. Now with that said, it would in your best interest to leave, I'm really not in the mood for this right now." Piccolo said.
"You've made one mistake, I didn't get this armor from Frieza, it was supplied by his brother." she answered.
"Brother? Frieza has a brother?" Piccolo asked, surprised.
"You know of Frieza, but not his brother?" Kyuuri asked with a laugh. "It doesn't matter though, I'm the one you should be afraid of right now." she added.
Piccolo braced himself as the girl charged him, easily intercepting her fist with his forearm, a kick with his knee, and effortlessly caught a hook in his palm. "Is that all?" Piccolo asked in an unamused tone.
Kyuuri simply growled, leaping back and letting loose a volley of ki blasts, each one crashing into her opponent. "You had some skill, but you're power level wasn't nearly high enough to beat me." she said. She turned quickly, gasping sharply as she came face to face with the man she thought she had defeated.
"You might want to check again." Piccolo said as the Saiyan girl flew away from him.
Kyuuri checked her scouter, noting his power level had risen from 2000 to 7000 instantly. "What? How did you...?" she stammered, checking her scouter again. "Doesn't matter, you're still no where close to me." she growled before flying at him again.
Piccolo raised his fists, his eyes opening wider as she phased out of view, suddenly materializing behind him and delivering a kick to his head, followed by two ki blasts to the back.
Kyuuri eyed the smoke cloud cautiously, grinding her teeth when her green skinned opponent was still there, completely unharmed.
"I could make my power level go higher, but I'm afraid it would break your scouter." Piccolo said with a smirk.
"Don't taunt me!" she roared, bringing both hands together and releasing an enormous ki blast.
Piccolo readied himself to simply redirect it, but something caught his eye, there were many species in the universe that resembled humans, thus he discounted her looks before, but now he could see it...coming unfurled from around her hips was a tail. "Could it be?" Piccolo asked himself. He churned the possibility of there being another Saiyan survivor over in his head before quickly realizing he lost his concentration...but it was too late.
Kyuuri grinned as the Ki blast made it's mark, resulting in a large explosion, the shockwave blowing apart nearby buildings. "Never underestimate a Saiyan." she said, resuming her serious facial expression.
"So it is true, you are a Saiyan." Piccolo said as he phased into being in front of her.
"You..you can't be!" she stammered. The green skinned man's clothing was torn and burnt in places, and he had a few scuffs on his skin, but he looked fine overall, and still ready to fight. Kyuuri narrowed her eyes at the man in front of her, thinking about what he had said. "Met my people before, have you?" she asked, slightly relaxing her fighting stance.
Piccolo began to answer, groaning when he heard a call from atop a building behind him.
"I am GUARDIAN OF THE CITY...the one and only...Great Saiyaman!" Gohan yelled, leaping down from the tower he stood on, joining Piccolo.
"Everyone knows your "secret identity" now, so why do you insist on wearing that ridiculous outfit?" Piccolo asked, turning his attention to Gohan.
"C'mon Piccolo, the people need their hero." Gohan said with a smile.
Piccolo rolled his eyes as Gohan struck another pose, turning to the Saiyan girl before him.
Kyuuri narrowed her eyes, looking at the newcomer with a derisive stare. "What are you supposed to be?" she asked.
"Is that who we're fighting? She doesn't look like a villain." Gohan said quietly.
"Gohan...she's a Saiyan." Piccolo said, staring straight ahead.
Gohan looked the girl up and down, finding, to his shock, a tail swaying back and forth behind her. "I've got this Piccolo." he said, walking forward.
"If you think that ridiculous costume is scaring me, you couldn't be more wrong." she said, charging a ki blast in both hands.
"Wait! I just want to talk." Gohan said, grabbing a hold of the turban he wore. "Well, Piccolo was right, everyone does know who I am by now." he thought as he whipped it off, his short black hair coming into view while he removed his sunglasses."
"You still don't scare me, you actually are kinda cute though, if you walk away now I might spare your life." she said, extending one arm. "If not, this is for you." she added, indicating the blue ball of energy in her hand.
"Wait! I know you're a Saiyan!" Gohan said, pointing to her tail.
"I don't know how you know about Saiyans, human, but it doesn't matter!" she yelled, releasing the Ki blast.
Gohan immediately phased out of the way, quickly stepping back in front of the Saiyan girl after the blast had passed. "I'm not human...well not completely, I'm half human...and half Saiyan." he said, adding a more serious tone to his voice.
Kyuuri laughed loudly, looking at Gohan. "That's ridiculous...I'm afraid I must be moving on now, there's much to do." she said, powering up the other ki blast and releasing it at the half Saiyan.
Gohan easily dodged it, flying up to the Saiyan girl. "Wait! Hear me out!" he shouted.
"I've heard enough!" she replied. Kyuuri turned in mid-air releasing a large blast at her adversary.
Gohan extended an arm to block it, only to have the blast explode into dozens of smaller ones. The half Saiyan raised his arms, the blasts had no effect on him, but unfortunately were able to damage a large portion of the city below. "Please, listen to me." Gohan called, flying after Kyuuri.
The Saiyan girl ignored him, turning to throw another ki blast before realizing her green skinned rival had appeared behind her. "I'm ending this." he said, delivering a chop to her neck, the Saiyan girl immediately going unconscious and falling downwards.
Gohan raced to catch her, grasping her tightly in his arms as he levitated lower, slowly placing her on the ground as he touched down.
"It was the only way." Piccolo said as he observed Gohan's expression.
"Vegeta said we were the last ones of our race...he was sure of it..." the young half Saiyan said as he looked over the unconscious girl.
"There they are!" Tien said as Gohan and Piccolo came into view.
The four landed quickly, running over to their friends.
"Guys, what's going on? Is it over?" Krillin asked, looking around.
"Who's that?" Chiaotzu asked, indicating the girl Gohan was looking over.
"The cause of all this." Piccolo answered.
"But she looks so...harmless, she can't be much younger than Gohan." Krillin added.
"That armor...isn't that-" Tien said before being cut off.
"Yeah, it's the type of amor Frieza's soldiers wear alright, but according to her she was never under Frieza's command...instead being under his brother's." Piccolo said with a severe expression.
"Frieza has a brother?" Krillin asked, looking frightened.
Yamcha suddenly spoke up, pointing directly at the Saiyan girl. "Is that a tail?!" he shouted.
Gohan stood up, looking back at his fellow Z-fighters. "Yeah, she's a Saiyan." he answered, readying himself to defend her if need be.
"So far we don't really have a great track record with Saiyan visitors." Tien responded.
"C'mon guys, look at Vegeta, he started off trying to kill my dad, but has saved all of our lives at least a few times by now." Gohan said.
"It took quite some time to get him on our side, and that only happened because we had a common enemy in Frieza. We don't know where her loyalties lie." Piccolo said.
"Wait, what if my dad or Vegeta were here to talk to her, she might listen then!" he said enthusiastically.
"Your dad hasn't come back from wherever he is, and I don't think Vegeta would come when called, he still thinks he's a Prince, you know." Krillin answered.
"Wait, Gohan has a point, Vegeta's the Prince of all Saiyans, she might listen to him more than us." Tien suggested.
"The problem is getting him here." Yamcha said.
Suddenly the ground beneath them blew apart, the Z fighters turning to find the Saiyan girl awake, pulling her fist from the concrete. "I won't be made a fool!" she yelled, firing a volley of ki blasts at the group as she took to the skies.
"Dodon ray!" Tien shouted, a golden beam of light shooting at the Saiyan girl, skimming her leg.
Kyuuri grit her teeth, anger rising inside of her. She roared as she spread her arms, raining energy blasts down on the city beneath her.
"I'm sorry Gohan, I know how much this means to you, but she has to be stopped!" Piccolo said, phasing away.
"Piccolo, wait!" Gohan called, chasing after him. "I won't let another Saiyan die." Gohan thought as he caught up to Piccolo, raising his power level as high as it would go without going Super Saiyan.
"You!" Kyuuri shouted, charging Piccolo.
"Special beam cannon!" Piccolo yelled, extending two fingers.
Gohan materialized in between the blast and the Saiyan girl, taking Piccolo's attack straight to his chest.
"Gohan, no!" Piccolo shouted in complete disbelief.
Yamcha, Tien and Chiaotzu gasped, looking up as Piccolo caught the half Saiyan.
Kyuuri was dumbfounded, the earthling had just sacrificed himself to save her...but why...why would he do that for her? She looked over as the green skinned man floated to the ground, placing her other former opponent on the ground as the other four ran over to them. Her rage died as she observed them. "He sacrificed himself...for me..." she thought, hesitating slightly before turning and flying away.
"Quick, give him this!" Tien said, taking out a senzu bean."
"She's getting away!" Yamcha shouted.
"We can deal with that later." Tien replied, looking down at Gohan.
"He wont' be able to swallow it." Krillin said, looking down at his injured friend.
"Dammit, Gohan." Piccolo thought.
"I've got an idea." Tien said, kneeling beside The half Saiyan.
"What is it, Tien?" Chiaotzu asked.
Tien placed his hand on the uninjured portion of Gohan's chest, delivering a jolt of energy, quickly doing so again. Gohan coughed violently, blood spilling from his mouth.
"Krillin!" Tien called, the short Z fighter running over to him, placing the bean in Gohan's mouth.
"Come on, Gohan." Chioatzu called.
The whole group sighed in relief as Gohan sat up, his wound healed.
"Wow, that was quite a blast Piccolo." Gohan said, placing a hand on his chest.
"What were you thinking?! Getting in the way like that!" Piccolo growled.
Gohan stood up, looking over to his friends, "I have to find her, you guys stay here." he said, taking to the sky soon after.
oOo
Kyuuri sat on a cliff overlooking an expansive green forest below, on the last world which she had lived, there was mostly just desert and sand as far as she could see, this was new to her. She grit her teeth as she set her scouter down, she had never met anyone as powerful as the group she had just ran into...other than Cooler and his elite. She thought back to the night her father sent her away, even though she was young, it was burned into her mind, her screams as she saw her father being attacked by Salza, Dore and Neiz, and the last look he gave her before her Crash Pod took off.
She couldn't stop thinking about how the Earthling had saved her, she believed in her strength, but knew the blast from the green skinned man was too much for her, and as strong as it was, he didn't care, he placed himself in front of it just to save her life...suddenly she didn't want to rule this planet anymore.
Kyuuri reached for her scouter, standing up quickly as she sensed someone approaching. "You shouldn't have followed-" she said, stopping mid sentence. A stunned silence overtook her as she regarded the new arrival, the Earthling from before, the one she thought had died to save her landed only feet from her.
"I don't want to fight." he said as he landed.
"How is this possible? I saw you die." she asked.
"We have these things called senzu beans, they're pretty helpful, want one?" he asked, withdrawing a bean from his pocket.
"Why?" she asked, staying in her fighting stance.
"Why what?' Gohan replied.
"Why did you block your friend's blast? Why not let me die?" she growled.
"Because, there are so few of us left, I don't want to see another Saiyan die." Gohan admitted, a seldom heard serious tone to his voice.
"You'd actually have me believe you're a Saiyan? You don't even have a tail!" she shot.
"Well, that's because I had it removed." Gohan answered.
Kyuuri's tail wrapped tighter around her waist as he said that, just the suggestion being painful. "Why would you do such a thing?" she asked in disbelief.
"The Great Ape transformation can be a bit of a hassle to clean up after." he said with a laugh.
Kyuuri looked over the man in front of her, he definitely had the build of a Saiyan, and the fact he knew of the Great Ape transformation only made it more likely...could he really be a Saiyan? "So you're telling me there are Saiyan survivors here?" she asked, dropping out of her fighting stance.
"Only a few of us...most of us are only half though, my dad and Vegeta are the only full blood Saiyans here." he informed the girl.
Kyuuri's eyes widened. "Did you say "Vegeta"? "King Vegeta is here?" she asked, stunned.
"Not King Vegeta...though he should be a King by now, seeing as his father isn't around, but he goes by Prince Vegeta." Gohan answered.
"And...who is your father?"
"His name is Goku...other Saiyans call him Kakarot though." Gohan answered.
"Goku...that sounds familiar too." Kyuuri admitted.
"Well, he did kill Frieza." Gohan stated.
"Your father is the Saiyan that killed Frieza?!" Kyuuri asked, she was three at the time and still on Cooler's ship, she remembered her father and mother hiding in their quarters as Cooler flew into a rage, taking his anger out on a nearby planet with a supernova.
"I guess that was big news, huh?" Gohan inquired.
"Yeah." Kyuuri said, her thoughts drifting back to her parents.
Gohan looked at her, noticing the sad look on her face. "My name's Gohan." he said with a smile, said smile becoming a grin as the Saiyan girl looked at him and smiled back.
"I'm Kyuuri." she replied.
"It's nice to meet you, I'm glad we're finally on good terms." Gohan remarked.
Kyuuri regarded the half Saiyan, he didn't have the lust for battle in his eyes her father told her all Saiyans had, instead there was a kinder presence.
"Come on, I doubt sleeping on this ridge would be very comfortable, you can meet my dad, and Prince Vegeta if you want to...I'll warn you, he has a temper." Gohan said with a laugh.
The Saiyan girl looked at him, maybe it was the fact he was the first Saiyan she had met other than her mother and father, or maybe it was the fact that he risked death to save her life, but she trusted him. She nodded in agreement, following as Gohan smiled back at her and took to the sky.
oOo
"What of the uprising on Planet Teyan?" Cooler asked the purple, large headed alien below him.
"The reinforcements we've sent were successful in quelling it, the planet is ours, Lord Cooler." the alien answered.
Cooler smirked, Frieza's death only angered him because it brought shame on their family, showing the universe that they could indeed be killed, a fact some had started to doubt. Not long ago though, his brother had been found alive and revived in a partially mechanical form, his father, King Cold, left him in charge while he and Frieza travelled to the Saiyan's home for vengeance, something he only began to care about when neither his brother or his father had made it back. As he now was the only surviving member of his family, the entirety of the Planet Trade Organization was his, and he had dedicated resources to finding out where this Saiyan was, his father and brother never bothering to inform anyone other than the crew they took with them, so sure they were that they would win.
"Lord Cooler, sir!" another soldier called, indicating the screen in front of him.
"What is it?" Cooler asked in a harsh tone.
"We've just received an automatic transmission from an Attack Ball, sir! It's transmitted bio readings from the environment it's landed in!"
"If they're the bio readings from Xorthis I needn't hear them, we already know it's populace won't be able to withstand us." he said.
"No sir, it's located on a far away planet called Earth."
"We haven't sent anyone there." Cooler said, approaching the screen. He looked over the crewman's seat, his eyes widening at what he saw. Cooler grabbed the alien by the shoulder, easily tossing him across the room as he moved closer to the screen. "Saiyan bio signatures." he said quietly.
"You there!" Cooler called as he stood up, indicating another soldier. "Recall Salza, Dore and Neiz from whatever assignments their on, I'll need them soon." he said as he sat back in his hover chair. "Set a course for Earth."
Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed it!
Keeping with the DBZ tradition, I named the two OC Saiyans after vegetables, Kyuuri meaning "cucumber" and Daikon meaning "Radish".
Also, high fives to you if you can find the Budokai Tenkaichi 3 dialogue reference!
I welcome all comments and questions!
