Summary: This is Resurrection F retold with a special appearance from the Saiyan Rebel and the father of Goku: Bardock. You see… instead of dying with the rest of the Saiyans on Planet Vegeta, Bardock and even his wife Gine were saved by a mysterious Saiyan who had access to the multiverse. Truth be told, the Xenos/Zenos did say that they erased Universes 13-18. However, they lied in order to discourage one from getting curious if they were ever powerful enough to explore the multiverse and cause a disruption in the order of things. That aside, Bardock and Gine have been stuck in another universe for quite some time before Bardock returned just in the nick of time to help Goku beat Kid Buu. Not too long after that, Bardock alongside his son, wife and all of Goku's friends met Lord Beerus, the God of Destruction of their universe. In the two epic fights that ensued, Beerus first fought Goku once the Saiyan of Earth attained Super Saiyan God. Just as Beerus was ready to destroy the home of the Z-Fighters, Bardock appeared shocking not only Beerus but Whis as well for he himself had the power of a Super Saiyan God. In the end though, both he and Goku were beaten by Beerus. Luckily Whis stepped in to keep Beerus from destroying the planet once all was said and done. Since that day and the subsequent re-appearance of both Beerus and Whis the three Saiyan warriors asked to be trained by Whis behind Beerus' back no less. Although unhappy with Whis' actions, Beerus didn't see the harm in his three 'favorite' opponents training to tap into the power of gods. That power would come in handy when an old foe came knocking on Earth's front door.

Earth

Age 779

Frieza was not having a good day. Scratch that, Frieza was livid, two degrees passed pissed.

His men were stymied by the appearance of the Z-Fighters.

Krillin, Piccolo, Gohan, Yamcha, Tien & Chaioutzu, Master Roshi and Jaco had stood in Frieza's way once they found out Frieza's intentions. It had been a tough battle but in the end, the Z-Fighters had prevailed despite the fact that the last few years of peace had significantly diminished their skills. They were rusty and it nearly cost them. Luckily they stalled long enough for Goku, Vegeta and Bardock to arrive. In tow with the Saiyan trio was Beerus and Whis who were here for there own reasons… the sugary sweets and heavenly delights that Bulma promised.

Frieza was in his final form by the time the two subjects of his revenge appeared. At first he sported a smirk, glad to know he would exact vengeance upon the 'miserable worms' he once called a part of his army. But his eagerness at revenge suddenly turned to shock and outrage. Shocked at the fact that somehow Lord Beerus was standing right there with the crowd. He knew of the power he possessed and of course the legendary temper that came with it. If he were to exact his revenge, he would need to avoid the God of Destruction's awesome wrath. But that was ONE of his thoughts.

Frieza's eyes couldn't have widened any more than they were already. To him, this individual had died with Planet Vegeta along with the rest of the Saiyans. This individual… this wretched Saiyan had somehow and some way cheated death and was standing before the Supreme ruler of the Universe. The suspicion of who this man was related to only made his outrage grow. It was obvious… this rebellious Saiyan who tried in vain to stop him four decades ago was the father of his greatest enemy!

Bardock, The Saiyan Rebel and The Father of Goku… was ready for a fated rematch with the man that destroyed his race.

The two held a fierce glare against each other until Bardock broke the silence.

"I've been waiting a long time for this Frieza." He said calmly, although deep down he was enraged and eager for a fight.

In response, Frieza simply smirked and crossed his arms.

"Hm. You think you can actually fight now you pathetic monkey?" Frieza prompted.

Bardock smirked and let out a low chuckle as he walked forward, getting some distance between his allies and his greatest enemy.

"Actually, yeah I can."

The Saiyan Rebel shifted into his fighting stance before his scowl became prominent again.

"And I will." He said with pure determination.

Frieza scoffed before pointing a single finger at Bardock. The next thing that happened was several Death Beams, if not a dozen or so went straight for Bardock. Since his defeat on Namek, the tyrant was more than eager to test the depths of his power. He was hoping to rid himself of the persistent ant beneath him. Fate had other ideas. Bardock changed his stance in a few seconds deflected all beams upward using the two fingers on his right hand.

"Impressive. You have gotten stronger." Frieza mused, raising an eyebrow in slight surprise.

Bardock slightly narrowed his eyes as he resumed his stance.

"And no doubt you've become one of those wretched Super Saiyans haven't you?"

Bardock edged himself closer, digging his left foot in the ground. Frieza closed his eyes and let out a low chuckle.

"Very well then, let's begin."

To the naked eye… both fighters disappeared in a god-like display of speed. But the Z-Fighters, Beerus, Whis, the stowaways Goten and Trunks could see as clear as day. Since the tale of the Saiyans was passed down in addition to Bardock's shocking return… this fight has been forty years in the making.

Shockwaves echoed as Frieza and Bardock trade blows in the skies above. Frieza was now certain that Bardock was leagues stronger than the pitiful warrior he destroyed decades earlier. This soldier… this warrior standing before him was not only powerful but determined.

After a series of trading punches and kicks across the sky, Frieza managed to wrap his tail around Bardock's leg for a surprise attack, flinging him back down to Earth. Bardock was thrown back a considerable distance before correcting himself mid-flight and rushing back into the action. To throw the Saiyan off course or halter his progress, Frieza threw several Death Waves at his target only to miss when the Saiyan was phasing while weaving through the air.

Just as Bardock was closing in, he phased out of Frieza's sight before reappearing on Frieza's right throwing a devastating haymaker with his left hand. This move was followed by a quick uppercut with his right before a spinning roundhouse to the side of Frieza's head, which sent the tyrant flying off to the side.

Bardock knew that Frieza had to be holding back, it made sense to him. Sure the wicked tyrant was in his Final Form but for some reason, instincts told Bardock that Frieza was holding back some of his power, even in this state. And Bardock learned a while back to trust his instincts more often.

Frieza re-oriented himself mid-flight and stopped, hovering in the air with a glaring expression. His temper continued to rise to a point where he might go insane. Here was a man that he had killed… alongside his king, his squad and his entire people (almost) and yet he was stronger?! The tyrant had an ace up his sleeve that he planned on using against Goku but fate must have been either cruel or merciful to give Frieza the opportunity to face and possibly kill The Rebel with his new power.

"RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Bardock's roar brought Frieza out of his stupor and he re-engaged in the contest of mortal combat with the father of his greatest enemy. The two traded kicks and punches, with this time being different. For every few dozen punches and kicks thrown each other's way, they managed to score hits. Punch to the jaw… knee to the gut… elbow to the side of the head… roundhouse to the ribcage… they were scoring damage on each other but they knew this game couldn't continue.

All while this was going on, the group below was in pure awe. Outside of Goku and Vegeta, the Z-Fighters had never seen Bardock fight this serious before. Sure there was that spar with Goku once the mess with Majin Buu was settled and of course the time Bardock fought Beerus with the only witnesses being Whis and a barely conscious Goku. All in all they knew their lives were in good hands… but something was off.

("Grandpa's not even going all out if he's still in his Base Form. I really am rusty if that's the case…") Gohan thought as his brows furrowed.

("Bardock is fighting Frieza without the need to go Super Saiyan. And if I'm right, Frieza may even have close to enough power to rival Goku or Vegeta.") Piccolo thought, standing like an unmoved statue.

Meanwhile, the God of Destruction and his attendant were still taking in the delicacy known… as strawberry cake. But even they were getting caught up in the action. What piqued their interest more was how Bardock had approached his long awaited vengeance against Frieza.

"Interesting. Things are heating up aren't they Lord Beerus?" Whis prompted with an all knowing smile.

"Yes… it appears Bardock knows as well." Was the God's amused reply.

While Beerus continued to enjoy cake, Whis took the time to observe both combatants more closely. It was clear as day that The Rebellious Saiyan had the edge on Frieza in power, size and pure aggression. Bardock's glaring weakness was obviously his temper but he's kept it in check thus far, not letting it cloud his judgement once. Bardock wasn't the perfect warrior by any means but he was slightly better than Goku and Vegeta when it came to their respective weaknesses. Goku's weakness was letting his guard down too soon and assuming too much in a fight where he could have and should have won. While Vegeta's greatest weakness was also his greatest strength… his Saiyan pride.

When this fight between Bardock and Frieza would end, Whis knew the two warriors would get some sort of lesson from this… one way or another.

"One thing's for sure… this fight won't be over until he gets the final say." Whis said narrowing his eyes slightly.

After another series of trading blows, the mortal enemies separated and simply stared at each other with hateful expressions. Neither were tired but they were lightly panting… the warmup was officially over. The combatants slowly descened to where they were a few dozen feet above the water and visible to their spectators.

"I see you just won't die will you?" Frieza asked with a malicious smile.

"Not a chance in hell Frieza. I've been waiting a long time for this." Bardock proclaimed with vicious smirk.

Frieza of course then titled his head back and cackled with an evil laugh befitting his title as a tyrant. After a short moment, he turned his attention back to the source of his ire… and the soon to be punching bag of his new power.

"Then I guess the warmup is over then isn't it?" the tyrant inquired.

Frieza outstretched his arms in his pose to power up. Bardock let out a low chuckle before getting into his own power up pose.

"Yeah…"

As that word hung in the air, the atmosphere changed. Frieza's violet/ purplish aura slowly changed to gold… as if he were going to Super Saiyan?!

Bardock didn't care even when he noticed it. The Saiyan's smirk then turned into a feral grin as his white aura soon turned to the color of cyan… it was time to tap into the power of a god.

"It is."

With that, the Galactic Tyrant and The Saiyan Rebel both ascended into echelons of power that dare few could ever realize. The fated duel had truly begun…

A/N: This is a special chapter taken from a Dragon Ball Z crossover project. Keep in mind I'm aiming for a more polished project. Meaning I might overhaul this entire chapter before putting it in the final draft of my story.
