Chapter 1: Prologue (The Premonition)
Bardock and his team had just conquered Planet Kanassa and had returned home, when Bardock has a vision about the destruction of Planet Vegeta and the death of his crew and friends at the hand of Dodoria, he shakes it off as if it was a daydream or hallucination caused my fatigue, he never believed that Frieza would betray them after everything they've done for him, but he wondered if they were real, after all he had heard that the inhabitants of Planet Kanassa had psychic gifts, like being able to read minds and see into the future.
Bardock thinks for himself *I should probably mention this to King Vegeta, he's my old friend and rival after all*
'On Frieza's spaceship'
Soldier says: Lord Frieza, we've been notified that as of last night, Planet Kanassa was conquered.
Dodoria says: By whom, that particular mission have been open for weeks.
Soldier says: It was a group of low-class saiyans, leader is Bardock.
Frieza says: Bardock, his strength increases quite fast, these saiyans are peculiar, they become stronger with each defeat, I should eliminate them, should there be any truth to the stupid legend of the Super Saiyan.
Frieza says: Set course towards Planet Vegeta, It's time i dealt with these saiyans myself.
Everyone says: YES LORD FRIEZA!
'Back on Planet Vegeta'
Bardock and his crew had just arrived on Planet Vegeta, Bardock rushed to the kings royal chamber demanding to have an audition with him.
Bardock says: Let me in, I have something I must discuss with the king, it can be a matter of life or death!
Kung Vegeta says: Very well, let him in.
Bardock says: My king, I have urgent news, better to take it in private.
King Vegeta says: As you wish, soldiers leave us!
Soldiers says: Yes your majesty
'Soldiers leaving'
King Vegeta says: So what's this about my old friend and rival?
Bardock says: As of last night, me and my crew went to Planet Kanassa and conquered it, as you might have heard, the kanassians apparently possess some psychic gifts, like being able to read minds or see into the future.
King Vegeta says: Go on...
Bardock says: I encountered a kanassian there and he did some kind of attack on me, I was too sloppy and had dropped my guard, but that's beside the point, some time after the attack when we were on our way back, I had a vision of Planet Vegeta being destroyed by Frieza, I wasn't sure if it was a daydream or hallucination caused by fatigue, but I thought that it was best that i let you know anyways.
King Vegeta says: You did the right thing, if it is a premonition then we can only assume that he's on his way and we can plan a counter-offensive to defeat him once and for all.
Bardock says: It won't work, he's too strong, in my vision I saw you being killed by ease by him right here in this chamber, and the rest of the saiyans were eating dinner, I was the only one that fought, I died together with the planet engulfed in a big blast, so if i may your majesty, I suggest that we try to warn as many as possible and prepare space pods and travel to some backwater planet where no one knows us, like that planet my newborn son was sent to, I think it's called Earth.
King Vegeta says: That's preposterous, you're saying we should flee like cowards, that's not the saiyan way.
Bardock says: I know that but we have no choice if we want to survive, look at it like a tactical retreat, so that we can train and become stronger and fight another day.
King Vegeta says: I guess so, I don't really like it but if it is as you say then we have no choice if we want to survive, I'll have the space pods ready in 6 hours.
Bardock says: Thank you, your majesty.
King Vegeta says: No need to use such formalities when we are alone, we are old friends and rivals after all.
Bardock says: Okay, thank you Vegeta, I'll go get Raditz, Nappa and young prince Vegeta, and you'll issue the evacuation?
King Vegeta says: Yes, now go, we don't have much time.
'Announcement'
King Vegeta announces: Attention everyone, I've acquired information from a close friend that Frieza is here soon and that he will destroy the entire planet, we must evacuate now so that we can survive, I know it's the coward's way but we have no choice, we are too weak as we are now.
'Everyone breaks out in laughter'
Everyone says: Pfft, has the king gone senile, why would Frieza betray us, we've done nothing to deserve that, we've served him with absolute loyalty.
King Vegeta says: You fools, you're all going to die, fine suit yourselves, you'll have no one else to blame but yourselves!
'Laughter dies down and end of announcement'
'6 hours later'
Soldier says: Lord Frieza we are approaching Planet Vegeta!
Bardock says: Oh shit, he's here, we must leave NOW, Nappa, prince Vegeta, Raditz, take your space pods and input coordinates for Planet Earth, me and the king will take off in a minute as well!
Bardock uses a frequency on the scouter that only the king will hear: Vegeta, Frieza have arrived, we must leave now!
King Vegeta says: Okay, I'm at my space pod right now, was Planet Earth the correct destination?
Bardock says: Yes, same planet as i sent Kakarot.
'Frieza charges his Supernova attack and sends it straight at the core of Planet Vegeta never noticing the space pods that escaped.
