Dragon Ball Z (Custom)

Chapter 1:

The Saiyan's arrival

Katsuro and his son, Zohan, travel to Master Roshi's house for a reunion with old friends. As one would expect, everyone is in high spirits after finally meeting again. Elsewhere, a Saiyan by the name of Xero has flown into the planet with his pod and is already starting trouble. He meets Kaiba and is about to dispose of him when his scouter picks up a very powerful being and Xero flies off to see who it is.

"W-Wait...who are you..?"

Katsuro asked Xero in confusion, like he's never seen him before.

Crashing the party, Xero approaches Katsuro, or "Kakarot" as he calls him, and tells him they are brothers. He wishes for Katsuro to join him but is refused. With a quick move, the Saiyan appears in front of Katsuro and with a quick knee to the stomach, Katsuro is down. Still persistent in his demand for Kakarot to join him, he grabs Zohan and tells Katsuro he must kill a large amount of people in order for his son to be returned. Kyo flies off leaving Katsuro pleading to leave his son be.

"I'll be taking your son for now! Make your choice "Kakarot!"

After when Katsuro woke up from his knock out. He screamed.

"W-What happened…"

He then finally realized that his son has been taken.

"!? Damn It! I have to go..NOW!"

Using a device called a dragon radar, Katsuro manages to locate his son and is ready to leave when another unexpected guest appears. It is Kaiba, who faced Xero before. He's also a long-time enemy of Katsuro. Not wanting to continue the quarrel between them, the two join forces to take out the Saiyan together. Xero returns to where his pod crashed and throws Zohan inside for the time being. Hopping on Nimbus, Kakarot and Kaiba fly to the crash site and begin battle with Xero.

"Alright fine! If you want to die In front of your son so be It!"

Xero got In a battle stance So did Katsuro and Kaiba. Katsuro roared with anger.

"Give me back my son!"

Easily defeating both Katsuro and Kaiba, after two fights the duo go at it again. This time Katsuro flies into the air and unleashes a KameHameHa attack. Unfortunately Kyo deflects it.

"What's wrong Kakarot? Are you being tired!? This is no fun at all!"

Xero said in disgust as Katsuro breathes heavily..

"Darn...I used almost my Ki on that attack...What should we do now..?"

Katsuro turned to Kaiba which had an idea.

Kaiba tells Katsuro to entertain the Saiyan as he powers up for a special attack. After it's charged, Kaiba shoots his Demon Ray which Kyo can't block. With his speed Xero manages to just barely get out of the way but still takes some damage from it. Katsuro has his own plan and sneaks behind Xero, grabbing his tail.

"Got you! Kaiba do It now!"

Kaiba replied with a smirk.

"I will. Just hold him still!"

Xero cried.

"A-Alright, Alright! I give up..Please..If you let me go now! I'll leave this planet for good! You have to believe me..!" Kyo pleads for Katsuro to release him and he does it, but then is elbowed to the face.

"HA! You fool!"

Zohan blasts out of the pod and smashes Xero in his armor, breaking it.

"Leave my Daddy Alone!"

Xero said out of anger.

"You fool!"

The child is kicked away and knocked out. Katsuro gets up and holds Xero again as Kaiba once again shoots his Demon Ray, killing both of the Saiyans.

Shori and friends land. Seeing the body of Katsuro fading away, Kaiba says he is going to the check in place where dead spirits go. He also says that more Saiyans are coming, then picks up Zohan to train him. In the afterlife, Katsuro travels along snake way, an extremely long path, to find King Kai's planet where he can be further trained.

"Gah..Oh man...This Is a long way.."

"I wonder how long should I move on to get there..!"

Up on Snake Way, Katsuro is still on the path when a road cleaner offers him a ride. As he is sleeping in the cart, he is knocked off the road and into the underworld.

Kaiba continues training Zohan when the moon comes out, transforming the child into a giant beast.

"W-What the hell!?"

Kaiba destroys the moon and pulls of Zohan's tail in order to keep himself from being destroyed by the beast. The tail mysteriously grows back, though, and the two keep training. Now in the underworld, Katsuro meets two ogres and is challenged by one to a wrestling match. After winning, the ogre attempts to launch him back to Snake Way but is blocked for some reason. The other ogre shows him a staircase to Snake Way and before leaving, Katsuro grabs a piece of fruit from a forbidden tree. A scene shows the two powerful Saiyans Kaiba talked about showcasing their amazing potential.

Zohan (after disappearing earlier, when he turned into an ape) is found by some boys washed up on the shore. He has a few misadventures and makes his way back to Kaiba. Meanwhile Katsuro has finally made it to the end of Snake Way and is on to King Kai's planet.

"Alright! Finally!"

The gravity is very powerful on the planet and the first person he meets on the planet is a monkey. Thinking this is King Kai, he starts talking to him, but Kai finally finds him talking with his pet monkey "Bubbles". Before training can begin, Katsuro must make Kai laugh. He attempts with no avail, but finally tells a terrible joke and Kai can't help but crack up at it.

"Alright! King Kai. What should I do first In my training?"

His first task is to catch Bubbles, and he accomplishes it by running the opposite direction and surprising the monkey.

"Alright! Done...What next..?"

The second objective is to smash "Gregory", a cricket, with a rather large mallet. Goku tries the same thing he did with Bubbles.

"Alright..GO!"

He throws the hammer the opposite way, then chases the bug hoping the mallet will come around and smack Gregory without notice. After finishing both of the tasks, Katsuro is taught the Kai-o-Ken after some more training. He also learns and practices Spirit Bomb, then Kai gives him a robe.

"Whoa..It's so light! Thanks King Kai!"

Back on Earth, all of the Dragonballs have been collected and Katsuro is wished back from the afterlife. Two Saiyan pods arrive on Earth and already they are figuring out how to conquer it. Approaching Kaiba and company, they all prepare for battle. One of the Saiyans named Kappa plants seeds which turn into little green monsters called Saibermen. Before fighting the two Saiyans themselves, the group must first defeat these creatures. Takuya is killed in the process and Shori takes out the group of them with a single blast. Jostu jumps on the back of Kappa and uses an attack which blows himself up, but leaves Kappa with little damage.

"Oh man….We're dead.."

Zohan cries in pain.

"Dad! Where are you!?"

Shori, enraged, goes into an all-out attack against Kappa, who blocks all his attacks like nothing. Kaiba tells the others that once Kappa goes to the offensive, he will be unguarded, and they will sneak up and attack. The plan goes well until Gohan chickens out at the last second and runs away. Kaiba and Shori, pretty much the only ones left, continue to fight Kappa, but are no match, even together. Leon, who is only alive through pure willpower, however, puts all of his energy into a final attack, a one-handed Tri-Beam. Unfortunately, this fails, and Kappa survives with only his armor damaged. Leon, who literally put his life into the attack, dies.

Kappa prepares to make the kill on all three, however Kyo, who had remained on the sidelines, halts him. Kyo has deduced that "Katsuro" is Kakarot, and wants Kappa to wait three hours for Katsuro to arrive to provide punishment for the "traitor", planning to continue the fight afterwards regardless of whether or not Katsuro is there. Kappa reluctantly agrees, much to the puzzlement of the remaining fighters, as Kappa is much larger in stature than the diminutive Kyo.

"Alright brats..We'll give you some time to live upstill Kakarot gets here. If he's not here In three hours all of you are dead!"

"D-Darn It! I have to hurry!"

Katsuro, who had been flying down Snake Way for two straight days, finally reaches the end of the road. Kami appears to transport Katsuro back to Earth, and on his way to the battlefield, he receives two Senzu Beans from Korin, eats one of them himself to regain his strength, and rides the Flying Nimbus towards the action to conserve energy. Unfortunately, the three hours are up.

The remaining fighters formulate a plan to weaken Kappa by grabbing his tail, as Katsuro had done with Xero. This ultimately fails, when Kappa reveals that elite Saiyans have learned to overcome the weakness of the tail. He then hits Kaiba on the head when Kaiba learns that it is hopeless. Kaiba is rendered unconscious, and Kappa attacks Zohan and Shori for a while. Kaiba regains consciousness, and exclaims that Katsuro is coming.

"Wait a second.."

Kyo's scouter picks up Katsuro's power level to be 5000, which shock the two Saiyans. Xero knows that since the Fighters have the ability to change their power as they see fit, 5000 is most likely the lowest power that Katsuro is exerting. Xero then orders Kappa to kill everyone before Goku arrives, as a team attack might prove to be a disadvantage. When Kappa argues about the Dragon Balls, Xero tells Nappa about the existence of Dragon Balls on Piccolo's home planet, Namek. Zohan urges Kaiba to escape as his death would mean the end of the Dragon Balls on Earth and subsequently kicks Kappa in the head, sending him crashing into a cliff wall. However, he only succeeds in making Kappa angrier.

"Alright you little brat that's It!"

The enraged Kappa launches his powerful Bomber DX blast at Zohan, but before it hits, Kaiba jumps in the way and takes the blast full force, killing him.

"K-Kaiba!"

Before his death Kaiba admits with tears in his eyes how he had enjoyed training with Zohan and how his innocence made him soft, leading up to the events of him eventually sacrificing his life for the boy. Up above Earth, Kami vanishes as well, as his being is linked with Kaiba due to their history. Zohan's rage explodes and he fires his Masenko attack at Kappa, who blocks it.

"Grth..What the heck!?"

This surprises Kyo, considering that Zohan's power level upped from a low 981 to 2,800. However, finishing the attack leaves Zohan helpless. Fortunately, Katsuro arrives just in time.
