It's my first AU story. A „what if" story. I'm paying with the idea what would have happened if the saiyans believe Bradock. How would it influence history? I have no idea where this story will lead though :) This is just a short chapter, to put everything in perspective.

Prologue

Bardock run back to the palace and stormed into the dining room, where some of the fighters were currently having lunch. He tried to explain to them about his visions regarding Freeza, but they all laughed at him, thinking that he went crazy. He was on the verge to go to Freeza's ship alone, when one of the younger saiyans stepped for and asked:

"What if he is right? What if Freeza is indeed planning to kill us?"

Bardock looked at the man, he was only 18 years old, but one of the trusted members of the King's council. He had short spiky hair and a strong built, even for saiyan measure.

"Karris!" Bardock called out his name, feeling extremely grateful for him.

The young warrior looked at Bardock, the looked back at the rest of the saiyans.

"I already had the feeling that Freeza might be afraid of us."

"Why would he be afraid? He is way stronger than any of us!" One of the saiyans asked.

"True, he is stronger than any of us individually. Yet, I'm not sure if we wanted to take him, we would loose. I mean all of us against him!"

There was some discussion among the saiyans, until one of them, a woman named Toma asked:

"What do you want us to do, Bardock?"

"Come with me, let's face Freeza together!"

Heading his bold reply they began to discuss it again, when suddenly an another warrior asked:

"Where is the king?"

Everybody looked around, expecting him to be there, but he was nowhere to be found.

"I saw him flying towards Freeza's ship an hour ago." A woman answered. "I thought they had something to discuss.

"He should be back by now!" Karris called.

The saiyans became more and more nervous as the conversation drag on and finally most of them decided to follow Bardock. They were just in time to see Freeza's ship facing their planet and there was some strange ling coming from that direction. They flew over, just to face Freeza's soldiers. This time though Bardock wasn't alone and they managed to reach Freeza, before he had a chance to make the energy ball bigger.

"What the hell?" Freeza asked as he realised that at least 50 saiyans were floating around his ship.

"I know about your plan and we won't let you destroy our planet!" Bardock called, and threw an energy ball towards him.

Dodoria jumped forward and deflected it, then all hell came loose and additional soldiers left Freeza's ship. During that time more saiyans heard a news about Bardock's vision and about the small troop who left to face Freeza and more and more saiyans followed them. It was a terrible fight and both sides lost many fighters. When Freeza saw that a bunch of saiyans killed Dodoria and an another group seemed to be win against Zarbon, he decided to leave. He run several scenarios in his head and truth was; he might have been able to take them, even now. On the other hand the saiyans got more and more reinforcement from their planet as the news spread. He decided not to risk it now. Sure, they were a threat, but it wasn't an immediate treat yet. He can come back with a bigger army and take them later. As he gave the order to retreat and left the orbit of the planet, he caught a glimpse of a spaceship leaving the orbit as well. It had only one passenger, a saiyan baby called Kakarott.

It took weeks until some kind of order was re-established on Planet Vegeta. Even though they won the fight, the war wasn't over yet. They were well aware that Freeza will come back one day. Also, they had an another issue; King Vegeta was dead, Freeza killed him, before he was trying to blow up their planet. When Prince Vegeta came back who was on a mission with Nappa, he was crowned as King at the age of 5. Some of the saiyans wanted a new king, they wanted Bardock to rule, but he explained to them, that he was not interested in politics.

"I'm just a warrior and even from that a low level one. Also, I pledged my alliance to the king and to the prince; I want Prince Vegeta to be our next king."

Even though Bardock refused to take the thrown, he quickly raised to the rank of the elite fighter and he became the member of the King's guards. It also meant that Radditz gained a higher rank and he was sent to more serious missions. Though it seemed like he has not such a high potential as Bardock. Goku, known as Kakarott was forgotten for the time being, as everybody was busy preparing for the day when Freeza will be back to take his revenge.
